WANT GREENBACKS.

If some LOYAL people in our knowledge
who are so extremely anxious to be "indem-
nifed' by Uncle Sam, for The losses sustain
ed by the war, would reflect for a moment,
we think they would cease their camorings
and conclude they had not lost so much after
all. How stands the case, exacting sbylocks :?
When the rebels posscsgad the country, you
sold them your surplus ut big figures and
invested heaps Of " Confederate trash" in
property ola tangible and permanent chorac-
ter. And you did this without compulsion,
no fear of " durance vile" or the hangman's
rope influenced you to contribute your MlTs
of strength, to the general defiance Of the
laws Of your country. You tratlicked in the
q contrabands of war; and the transactions
made you rich, when the rebs "got hard up
for grub, they demanded tithc9 of your
suddenly acquired opulcncc, and you refused
their deprecated paper in payment. Uncle
Sam in his Southern percgrinatons, paid
you n visit and APPROPRIATED few hor-
scs, cattle, and grain (unclc is Jchu and
voracous cater,) to serve his further jour
ucyings. Uuclo Sam was great terror to
tho rcbs, and they asd in wild dismay before
him. When they reached the eastern sea-
board, the wand Of rebel prowcss was bro
ken, the whole country restored TO tho do
miuion Of the told Flag, and you ISDEpEN-
IDENTIFY rich and once more hCncciorwOrd

Rebel Audacity.

Two returned Confederate soldiers went to
the house Of DR.. Cliff in Franklin on last
Wednesday, and demanded some food in a
very rude manner of the ladies, who were tina
only persons present. One Of them said that
he had been fighting the Yankees, and the
people owed him support. He then pro.
ceeded to abuse the ladies in the most insult-
ing language for some time, telling them they
were pack Of Yankees. While he was 60
ing on in this strain General ]. P. Brownlow
arrived, and learning the state of affairs, pro-
ceeded to give tho two intruders terrible
thrashing, knocking them down and giving
them hearty kicking for their insolence.--
Press and Times u.
The General pitched into the two drunken
blackguards with m old sword, and gave
them sound and telling drubbing. These
men will DO arrested for n violation Of their
parole. ...
The next evening the General and Col
Maynard were way-laid and robbed in four
miles Of Franklin, as they were going from
Nashville in buggy. The ball fred at the
General passed through his clothes and cut
bis shirt. In his hurried attempt to get his
revolver, 1t slipped down his pants .into his
bootleg, or he would have killed one Of the
gang.-Kaoxrille Whig

THE PRESENT..

We are returning TO our former prosperity
aud contcntmsnt with amazing alacrity.--
Peace i, beginning TO contrast It's selutary
triumpbs in hopeful prominence, with the
deyaslations Of war. The stimulus Of Ito re-
wards has infused zeal energy and diligence
with oyery ayocation OF life. The ring Of the
anvil, tho sound Of the hammer the whirl Of
the spindle and the builders loud and frequent
calls for "mUre mort announce the day
spring Of new and glorious era. The nox-
ious cumbrance Of the soil Is disappearing be-
fore tho keen scythc, and the merry plonta-
ton songs of the huSbandmOn, clearing the
stubborn turf with his ploughsharc, are
heard In all directions. Happy children arc
seen vending their way to the school-room,
there preparing TO direct the destnies OF
their generation for honor and usefulness.
Civil law Is the umpire Of strife, and the dis
pensary Of justice.
Another evidence Of returning happiness
aud prosperity, and by far tho most cheer
ing, 10 the great religious interest now being
manifested throughout the country. These
spiritual awskenings sisnalisc The continuance
Of Gods mercy and love TO the people,
WHIST thousands were consigned TO the ruth

for the term of two years. We hope every
