A Card from Governor BrOWnIOW.
KNOXVILLE, August III, I8U1.

KNOXVILLE, August 10, 1857.
TO the Editor of the Chronicle:
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican,
Of the 10th instant, thus introduces
the subject of our late elections:
A letter from Nashville, Tenn ,
states that Governor Brownlow prom
Used, before tho election, that if his
party succeeded suffrage should be
extended TO all the white men of tho
State. The Conservatives will now
ask him to call the old Legislature
together, as they can change the law
at once, while it would take six
years to carry through an amend
ment to the constitution, If Brown
low refuses to fulfil his promise,
there will DO an agitation at once for
o convention to pass a new constitu-
ton
| made no such ridiculous promise,
either privately or publicly, in writing
or by speaking, and for the Nll.snf-
6cient reason that l entertain no such
sentiment, The bad conduct of the
rebel papers and politicians, during
u late canvass, has satisfied me that
u franchise law is right. If the
rebels wish peace, let them submit to
tho laws Of this State if they desire
tho reverse, let them commence "agi-
tation."
Loyal men intend to govern this
State, and they propose to do it with
GU: the advice of Northern journals
falsely claiming to be Republicans, l
will have oil such journals know that
| am elected by 10000 of a majority
on the Uhite vOte, and by $4,000 upon
the entire vote of the State. Elected,
too, in the face Of Northern opposi-
ton that ought TO bow it's head in
shamel W. G. BRowNLow,
Governor ofTcnnessee.

the universe unfolding the matohless splen-
doris oE his disc at the midnight hour, or the
current of the Missouri rolling back to the
slopes of the Rocky Mountains, than D. T..
Patterson occupying again the high position
of United States Senator from Republican
Tennessee.
Several eminent gentlemen Of our party
have been spoken OF as his successor, and
all for aught we knew, deserve the honor
Our best information is that the contest will
be between Hon. Horace Maynard, Hon. A.
j. Fletcher, Gen. Cooper and Gen. Stokes.-
Either will bea mighty power in the Sem
ate, and they are equally devoted 10 the
best interests Of our State and Nation
Of course we shall be perfectly satisfied
with the choice Of the Legislature, know
ing it will elect q good, true and worthy
man, but our individual preference Is
Governor VIM. G.. Brownlow. The Cover.
DOR is for confscation straight out, always
has been, and will at once become the Thad-
deus Stevens of the Senate. The Conserva-
tlsm Of this branch of the National Legisla-
ture, although Radical in the main, has seri-
ously obstructed the progrese of the only safe
and equitable plan Of restoration, tho confs-
cation of rebel property sufficient to pay the
expenses Of the war and remunerate loyal
men for their losses incurred thereby. We
want men like Gov. Browulow in power, who
do not heeitSte to approach An evil right at
once and cTtirpate it root and branch, fear
less Of personal consequences.
