Low Parson Brownlow-Preach-
er Brownlow- Minister Rownlow
of Tennessee = calls President
Johnson a dead dog. If so, Brown
low is brave enough TO attack him
And if johnson is adead dog, who
would not rather be in his place
than bear the name of Brownlow,
the reeking, cowardly, red-mouthed
radical, lccherous, treachcrous,
ranting, praying, disappearing
carved lava Of hell, now sitting as
Governor of Tennessee! In all
the annals Of sinners, whelps, hyp-
ocrites, dissemblers, lunatics, black,
guards, and blood loving hyenas OF
humanity we know not one so sat
urated with hate and birthstone as
this lantern 7jawed structure digni-
fled in sarcasm with the ndino of
man. Who is BrownlOw2 lie is Il
reckless radical adventurer. lie is
an ordained minister of the gospel,
He is an illegitimatc child of hell,
let loose Oh speculation. He is a
hlasphemous old tyrant-a drunk
en- Politician dishonest Govern
ora bigger traitor at heart than
ever was old John Brown, Thad.
Stevens or any other Of that corps
Of Union haters. lie is n minister
without religion. A preacher
without a convert. a Governor
without brains. lie has q tongue of
q bedlamite Of hcll-a heart with
out mercy-he is an adyenturer
without bravery--a rascal without
discretion-a libertine without
taste or decency-a sinner without
the least show for heaven--a man
with heart of a fiend-a brute by
instinct-a ruflian by nature-a
blackguard by professional hypo-
crite certain Of hell-a foul, nasty,
reeking sore on the political mass
Of corruption to which he belongs,
a stigma, a disgrace, an insult, a
byword and a reproach to the
list of Governors of American
States. When he prays it Is to the
devil. When he sings it is a drum
ken rawlings Of fiend. When he
indorses it is, to damn. When he
loves it is I'd destroy. When he
speaks it is to insult. When he in
terferes it is to blacken. When he
smiles 1t is to hide SOME Of the
deep and diabolical villanies his
blasphemous soul is ever planning.
There is not d devil In Pluto's do
minions but is more of a true
christian, there is not an ourang.
outang in the world but is more of
a statesman, there is not 5eastin
the forest but is more lovable,
there is not a murderer in the land
but is more innocent, there is not
fish-woman in all the Billingsgate
district but is less of blackguard,
there is not a lost soul in hell but
is more of a saint, there is not a
name in the history of traitors but
is more patriotic, there is not a
warty, sweaty, Shiny toad in all the
dungeons of the world but is
sweeter, purer and more attractive
than Parson Governor Blackguard
Brownlow, the ranting, lunatic, rad
ical whelp Of the devil now acting
as Governor ofTennessee. Should
Butler, Stanton and Browhlow
reach hell the same day we should
have the devil on earth at once, for
either of the above named excres-
ences are more fit to rob, torture
and destroy than all the satanic
fiends of hell acting III concert.

Abuse of the Franlling Privilege.
The Postmaster General has sent
a communication to Congress, call
ing attention to the abuses of the
franking privilege in the use of
franks Of members by claim agents,
patent agents, etc. Tho, Postmao.
ter-General says that this abuse has
become a serious evil, lessening
considerably the postal revenues
and bringing reproach upon the
department. The Postmaster Gen
eral is powerless to remedy this
evil while membeis of Congress
permit their clerk or other persons
to write their names on envelope
and use, or prevent the use of fac
simile stamps, neither of which
has the sanction of the law. Gases
are cited where a senator intrusts
all his franking to a vice; where
patent agents send their circulars
under frank Of a member of Con-
gress, and a case where a clerk in
one of the Departments forms out
the franks of three several mem
bors Of Congress. Outside of the
report we hear where a member Of
Congress sells his frank. The re-
port was referred to the House
committee on Postollices and Post
roads. aa ..

THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
AND THE VIRGINIA LEGISLATCRE.-The
correspondent from this city of the
Petersburg Under writes: "The rumor
abont the number of supporters which
the amendment is likely to receive are
all the purest speculations. l have as
good an opportunity rs any correspon-
dent for correct information on this
head, and / assure you there is no ground
for the assertion that one man in
either body will sustain it. Of course,
/ do not assert that it will be without
friends indeed, l confidently expect a
vote in support of it from one Senator
and ut least three delegates, whom
could name, and it would not surprise
me if these were enforced by Others.
All mean is, that neither i'll public or
private, have assurances of support been
given by any member of the Assembly,
save under the seal of secrecy. Among
the conjectured supporters, is the Chair
man of one of the most important COM
mittees of the House, but he is so I'M
certain a gentleman, that the Radicals
need not count too surely on his sup
port.
