SIce Times In Tennessee,

As to the condition Of political matters
in Tennessee, the following, written by
"NEack" to the Cincinnati Commercial
under date Of Chattanooga, April 2S,
furnisheE something Of an idea:
Political affairs wear quite as unpleas.
ant an rspect here ds in Nashville. There
is little else to be heard than complaints
against the malignant expressions Of
BrownIow and his clique-and they don't
come from the late rebels either, but from
men who served calamity in the Federal
army, many Of them in Ohio regiments.
One would think, to read the Radical pa.
pers Of the North, that there were none
but rebels in the Conservative party of
Tennessee-that it was made up exclu
sively of men who had not only worn the
gay in the late war, but were still auima.
ted by the sentiments that induced them
to put it on in tho first place. Nothing
can be further from the truth, SO far as
section of the State is concerned. The
most prominent workers in the Conserva.
tive cause in Chattanooga ore men who
have unequivocal records as good Ulion
soldiers, but whose soldiers sense Of hon.
or and fair dealing revolt against the mer.
ciless tyranny of the present State Coy.
ernmcnt, and drives them into any party
promising relief from il. They find them.
selves taxed as no other people are taxed,
and for no other purpose than to enable
Mr.. Brownlow and his friends to carry
the elections. s9 .
They are obliged to pay their share to.
ward supporting q militia force, which
will cost between eight and twelve mil
lions a year and it has no other object
than to overawo voters at the polls-for
there are United States troops enough in
the State to meet any possible contiDgen.
cy In the shape Of riot or insurrection
Here, in Chattanooga, the Legislature
has saddled them with a metropolitan po.
lice force, at an expense of not less than
$4,000 year; while the peace of the
city has always been kept for less than
half that sum. The only object, of course
Is to control the elections. And 50 Of
other abuses which might name, unnec.
cssarily adding to the burdens aud taking
from the liberties Of tho people, in man.
ner never before attempted or heard Of.

MOTHER.


In the family group, there is dear one
in whom the hearts most tender affec.
tions are entwined. This loved object is
our mother, who 80 carefully watched
over us during childhood's years, whose
voice was ever music to our cars; whose
smiles we're llfc's s4fbeams.; whose words
were o lamp TO our feet and light to on
pathway, to guide us along the rugged
paths Of life. .4N
Happy would ii be foT thousands Of
young men had they always needed the
words Of admonition which fell from the
lips Of q kind mother. Unfortunately,
when boyhoOd's sunny hours have passed
away, youth begins to disregard the voice
of her whose hands have ro,red him to
manhood. Home, with all it's assooia.
lions, are forgotten, by plunging into the
vortex of pleasure, which the world pre-,
sents to its youthful votary. The COM
pany Of those, who, but few months
ago, he Stunned, is now sought after with
avidity. Should that mothers voice
come to mind, it would not now be bark
ened to, for the strong tumult of passion
now RACES, and reason has become de.
