NEW YoRK, January pa letter from
Governor Brownlow to Speaker Colfax wa
published this morning. Governor Brown-
low favors the admission of the TENNESSEE
delegation to Congress, but if the removal d
the Federal troops from Tennessee must
necessarily follow such admission, he saw
the loyal men Of Tennessee would rather be

that the members can be admitted and ,
sufficient force retained to control the rss
bellious. He says that without law ID
disfranehise rebels, and force TO carry oui
the provisions Of that law, this State wild
pass into the hands Of rebels, and terrible
state Of affairs is bound to follow; Unibn
men will be driven from the State, forced &
sacrifice what they have, and seek homes
elsewhere. And yet Tennessee is in much
better condition than others of the revoitec
States, and affords stronger loyal Populas
ton.
