BrownIow's Tennessee Militia.

Governor Brownlow has ordered the ar
rest Of Captain William o. Rickmsn and
Lieutenant Holt. of Franklin county. for
permitting citizen named James Brown,
who was under arrest. to be shot by the
State militia under their command The
officers will be dismissed the State ser
vice and handed over to the civil authori-
ties for trial The Governor will issue a
general order severely reprehending the
disorder on the part of State troops. and
directing them to act only in support of
the civil authorities and the maintenance
of peace.-BaZtjnsore Gazette
The substance of the above was tele-
graphed over the North several days ago.
and yet we have heard of no arrests-no
turning over Of the murderers Of Brown to
the civil authorities-no dismissal of the
officers from the State serYice-and no
general order experimenting the disorder on
the part Of the militia. The design Of
these kilograms is evidently, through false
hood. to break the damning force of the
atrocious acts of Radicalism in Tennessee,
upon the minds of the people of all parts
in the North. a plain statement of the
condition of affairs in Tennessee would
sink the guilty wretches who commit and
tolerate the outrages upon the persons and
liberties of this people to the lowest depth
Of public scorn. and contempt everywhere,
save within the precincts of a so-called
Loyal League and they know it, and
hence the effort to deceive the public mind
elsewhere Union and Dispatch.

II is perhaps not generally known to
the readers of'this paper that the senior
editor is now resident of the country
farmer and stock grower to a small extent.
And those who are not aware of this fact
will fail to understand, without explanation,
the meaning of that Jersey wagon which
came down the Cornersville road the other
day loaded with poultry, pigs and goats,
and tabled "For the Citizen" Now per-
NIT us to remark just here to all our coun-
try friends, that such contributions" are
always welcome-welcome and highly ap-
preeiated under any circumstances, but
doubly SO now that we are just beginning
to stock our little farm. The Jersey load
alluded to consisted of Cashmere goat,
a Berkshire pig, game Cock and a setting
of Poland Duck eggs-all loaded at the
stock farm of our esteemed friend and fell.
low-cilizen, Maj. GEO. T. ALLMAN,-who
is not only good farmer and stock grower,
but one of the most intelligent, liberal and
energetic of our citizens who has not
only magnificent farm, in good repair,
well seeded and titled, but stocked with
pure bloods, from dog or chicken up to a
thoroughbred racer. The Major is Just
now beginning to realize some Of the pro-
fits from his years of toll and waiting
Before the war he had spent largely of
his means in improving and perfecting his
stock of all kinds, and had just showed off
the last scrubb Of every description when
the war began. During the war, raid af-
ter raid was made upon his stables and
meadows, with about the same success
that raids were made upon everybody in
the county, and he succeeded in saving
only few head of stock, which had been
impoverished and scattered from place to
place for the purpose. When the war
ended and the raids ceased, he gathered
up the fragments, and with another heavy
outlay of means succeeded in replenishing
his stock entire. He now feeds none but
the purest blood horses, cattle, sheep,
goats, hogs, chickens, ducks, dogs, etc.
He will please consider us before him, hat
in hand, acknowledging our great indebt-
edness to him for thus aiding us in our
poverty, to commence the improvement of
our own little stock Of scrubs And when
we get them improved mp to the Majors
standard, we viii try to benefit our neigh
bors and friends as he is doing the whole
community around him.

A Washington letter writer has heard of
the formation of an 'Andersonville League,
whose members are in Philadelphia, New
York and Boston who have suffered
either wounds or Imprisonment during the
war, and who are bound By oath, in case
the Government fails to punish Mr.. Davis,
to take the punishment into their own
hands. The close retirement of Mr.. Davis,
since his release on bail, is attributed to a
knowledge of the existence of this league ;
and two of it's members, known to the su-
thorities, are said to have been arrested in
the Richmond courtroom, on the day of
his release, on some fictitious charge, and
detained in prison in Richmond for several
days.

Joel Lindsay, Ae clergyman in Western
New York, who whipped his little child to
death because he would not say his prayers
to suit him, has paid the final penalty of his
inhumanity by paying "a fine of $3.50, not
$4,000 as reported by telegraph. He was
first convicted of manslaughter in the first
degree, then got new trial, at which the
jury disagreed, and finally plead guilty to
manslaughter in the fourth degree, for
which the fine mentioned was imposed as
the penalty. If the child had been a negro
and Mr.. Liuksay a citizen of Southern
State, he would have been lucky if he had
got off with a whole neck. Such is the
course Of justice North and South.
