BRICK pomeroy on Brownlow,


Brick Pomeroy on Brownlow.
Among those who feel themselves
called upon to compliment the mild and
gentlo spirit who rules the district of Ten
nessee for his gentlemanly dispatch to
D. D. Forney, wherein he elegantly ap-
plies to the President Of the United States
the epithet Of "Dead Dog" is that incor-
riblo "cuss," Brick Poneroy, who dis
courses of the Governor after the follow
ing fashion:
Low Parson Brownlow = Preacher
Brownlow - Minister Brownlow- Gov
ernor Brownlow of Tennessee-calls
President Johnson dead dog. If SO,
Brownlow is brave enough to attack him.
And if Johnson is dead dog, who would
not rather bc in his place than to boar
the namc of Brownlow, the recking cow.
ardly, red-mouthed, radical, lecherous,
ranting, praying, blaspheming carved lava
of hell, now sitting as Governor of Ten
nessee? In all tho annals of sinners,
whelps hypocritos, lunatics, blackguards,
and blood-loving hyenas of humanity, we
know not one so saturated with hate and
birthstone as this lantorn jawed structure
dignifed in sarcasm with the name of
man. Who is Brownlow? He isa reck-
less radical adventurer. He is an or
dained minister of the gospel. He is an
illegitimato child of hell, let loose on
speculation. Ho is blasphemous old
| tyrant-a drunken politician-a dishonest
Governor niger traitor at heart than
ever was John Brown, Thad. Stevens, or
any othor of that corps of Union-haters.
He is minister without religion. A
preacher without convert. A Governor
without brains. He has the tongue of
bedlanite of holl-a heart without mercy
Tho is an adventurer without bravery
rascal without discretion-a libertine
without taste and decency-a sinner with
out the least show for heaven-a man
with tho heart of fend-a brute by in.
stinct-, rufian by nature-a blackgusrd
by professional hypocrite certain OF he'll
"a foul, nasty, reelling sore on tho po-
litical mass Of corruption to which he be-
longs-a Stigma disgrace-an insult
byword and rcproach to the list Of
Governors of American States. When
he prays it is to the devil. When he
sings it is the drunken rawlings Of fiend.
When ho indorses it is to damn. When
he loves it is to destroy. Whom he speaks,
| it is to insult When he interferes it is
to blacken When he smiles it is to hide
some of tho deep and diabolical villainies
his blasphemous soul is ever planning.
There is not devil in Pluto's dominions
but is more Of true Christian-there is
not an ourang-outang in the world but is
more of statcsman-there is not q pis-
mire on the prairie but is moro of war
rior-thero is not robbcr in prison but
| is more honest-thcre is not a beast in
the forest but is more lovable-there is
not murderer in the land but is more
innocent-there is not fshwoman in all
the Billingsgate district but is less of q
blackcuard-there is not a lost sonl in
hell but is more of saint-there is not %
name in the history of traitors but is
NOR patriotic--there is not warty,
swcaty, shiny toad in all the dungeons OF
the world but is sweetcr, purer, and more
attractive than Parson Governor Black
guard Brownlow, the ranting, lunatic,
radical whelp of the devil now acting rs
Governor of Tonpessec. Should Butler,
Stanton, and BrownIow reach he'll the
samo day we should have the devil OF
Garth at once, for either of the above.
named exorescences arc more fit to rob,
torture, and destroy than all the satanic
fonds Of hell acting in concert.
