TENNESSEE owes an incalculable debt of
gratitude to Governor Brownlow No
other man could so brayely face dislOyalty.
No man is more feared and hated by unre-
pentant treason. He has his faults-and
who has not? He has not altogether aban-
doned his ancient hate and prejudice against
the blacks, but he is truly loyal, and man
fully honest and eminently public spirited.
He tries to discharge the duties of his high
Office Justly, and he truckles to no anti
Unionism-hc favors no plots to defeat the
national policy. He is profoundly anxious
for tho welfare of the whole State Of Ten
nessee, and clearly sees that this is best
promoted by frank accord with the emanci-
patton, and reputation of the rebel debt
policy Of the government, by the attraction
Of capital and population and the rapid
development Of the immense resources Of
our glorius State. In future years Cover
nor Brownlow will be honored as he de-
serves, when his detractOrs are forgotten or
remembered only to be despised. Men
howl at him because he don't want to
entrust political power in the hands of those
who still avow reasonable sentiments and
sympathies but none Of them questions the
Governors honesty, bravery or loyalty

A Description OF the Southern Con-
fpdnFafT,

The Cincinnati Gazette has obtaineda Gu
,.;ors scbooI- hook. entitled the Geographi-
cal PasdeT which gives tho following vivid
description of country we'll known to tho
public generally
SOUTHERN CoNFEDERACY.
z This is a great country. The Yankees
thought to starve us out when they sent
their ships to guard our seaport towns
But we have learned to make q great MANY
things; TO do without others; and above all
10 trust in the smiles Of the God Of battles
We had few guns, little ammunition and
not much of anything but food, cotton and
tobacco; but the people helped themselves
and God helped the people. We were con-
sidered an INDECENT, weak people, but our
enemies have found us strong because we
had justice on our side.
No doubt the S. c. Cso-calIed) was a great
country. 1t destroyed more lives, contrac-
ted bigger debt, and blew up with louder
explosion than any governmental machine
ever before invented. But we fear that its
leaders trusted more in smiles" of bad
whisky than they did in the smiles Of God.
4. The Southern people are noted for be-
ing high minded and courteous A stranger
seldom lacks friends in this country. Much
Of the field work is done by slaves. These
arc generally well used, and often have as
much pocket money as their mistresses.-
They are contented and happy, and many
Of them are Christians The sin of the
South lies not in holding slaves, but they
are sometimes mistreated. Let all the lit
tic boys and girls remember that slaves are
human, and that God will hold them to ac-
count for treating them with injustice.
The slaves might have been Christians,
but not to be believed on oath. The last
verse of this lesson is touching:
;. The Southern Confedcracy is at pres
ent sad country; but President Davis is a
good and wise man. and many Of the Gen
erals and other officers Of the army are pi-
GUS. There are good many good praying
people in the land, and we may hope that
our cause will prosper. When the righteous
are in authority, the nation reioiccth, but
when the wicked bearrulc the nation mourn
eth Then remember, little boys, when you
are men, never to vote for bad man to
govern the country.

COngratuIatOry Address OF the Loyal
lists OF Tennessee TO their Brethren
OF New York.

New YORK, Nov. 2S.-Thc Secretary Of
the State Central Committee has received
the following communication, addressed TO
the Union State Committee, from the loyal
State Committee of Tennessee:
NASHVILLE, Nov. 18th, 1S65.-Thc loyal
men of Tennessee to the loyal men Of New
York, greeting We the Union Committee
Of Tennessee, would not torcgo the present
occasion Of rendering you our cOngratula-
tons on the glorious result Of your recent
State election. The progress Of the contest
in the Empire State was regarded by loyal
men here with the deepest anxiety, and the
result is accepted as evidence Of the deter
mination Of our people TO stand by and
maintain the principles for which Union
men everywhere had fought and prayed for
the past four years We rejoice at the re
suit, because it evinces the confidence which
the people of New York feel, that the same
party which saved the Union from destruc
ton at the South, and false friends at the
North. is still competent to guide and direct
the affairs of our hitherto imperiled, but
now restored Union. We rejoice at it be-
cause it will strengthen and encourage the
heart of our noble President in the arduOus
duties still dcvolving upon him. Feeling
that he can rely upon q generous support,
we have every confidence that he will not
disappoint the expectations Of the patriots
by whose partially he was, under pro7i-
dence, placed at the head Of the nation, but
will in all things prove himself worthy OF
that confidence. With an abiding faith in
the Justice of our cause and the glorious
destiny Of our republic.
We remain yours, respectfully, &c.
