BRowNLow's FUTURE HoaE-That on;
able specimen of Radical excellence
brownlow, of Tennessee, delivered a lec.
ture in Memphis, some two years before
the war, IN which be used the following
language:
My friends, I have tried to do nv
duty in this world, as az accountable
being, as a man and as a Christian min.
lster, and, when | depart this life, I con.
hdently expect to go to the mansions Of
the blessed. Yes. my friends, when die
| am pretty sure | shall go straight to
heaven. Having fought The good fight,
and kept the faith here on earth, | hope
to be admitted to the great reward. But,
my trends, when ! have shufled of this
mortal coil, and entered into that happy
place, and shall look around among The
untold myriads of the just made perfect
IN that biissfal abode, should !, BY any
chance any strange, unaccounIabls per.
adventure, behold among those happy
beings a single, s-k-g Abolitionisi, II
any nation, cline, or color, be lie Jew,
Gentle or Hottentot, | shall just at ooes
swear that there has been chsatiB' at tie
door =
It is clear, says the Missouri Repall'
ran, that since Bfownlow made that
speech he has lost his hopes Of beaver,
and has concluded to 90 tie other aqyi
For he nos affiiiates with Abolitionisls,
accepts the doctrines Of AbolitioDists, and
aud has evidently made up bis mind TO
share the fate Of Abolitionists, who be
then declared could never get to heaven
unless there vas cheating at the door
Poor old wretch It is melancholy to
think that a man will take so much pains
to go the devil. But as he has already
fixed bis own doom, we can only con-
gratulate the wise and good everywhere
upon the strict administration Of that
Justice, whose vengeance the cuIpris a.
ready anticipates,
The editor Of the West Baton Rouge
Sagar Planter apologies for the nont
appearance of his spicy little sheet, last
week, on the score Of sickness. Hesays:
An excellent physician, good treatment
and effective remedies brought Us PACK
when SO far on u journey that we noss
seed the gates pn The editor certainly
has congratulations on his recovery,
but we cannot help thinking, 10 'ness
