Defense of Knoxville Against wheeler
Horace BECOMES u Soldier, and De.
serts fn the Presence of the Enemy
An Historical Reminiscence.
From the Knoxville Free Press, 18th.
Horace Maynard made speech at Gin
ton day before yesterday. He charged
Williams, we learn, with having harbored
Rebels during Wheeler's raid All We
thank Maynard for reviving that subject.
Our people will all remember that men,
orable and anxious time. They will all
recollect how they were called out and
compelled to take arms for the defense of
the city Gen. Carter was provost marshal,
and superintendent the organization. Col.
Flint was placed in command of the regi-
ment, and all citizens capable of bearing
arms were required to enter the ranks.
Horace Maynard, as a matter of course,
rushed periodically TO arms. We believe
he entered Capt. Cow Brownlow's COM
pany. Not only this, his two gallant sons
found it necessary to place their names on
the drafted list. Wheeler was advancing
upon Knoxville with some six OF eight
thousand men-ferce Rebels.
Daily the militia were summoned into
line, and quite formidable display they
made. On Wednesday evening it was
announced that the enemy was crossing
at Pickles on the French Broad, and
at Armstrong; on the Holston. They
were evidently about to attack Knox
vile on the north and weakest side.
The regiment of militia was called out
promptly The roll was called, but where
was Maynard Where were his two sons
In vain the Sergeant called the roll There
was no answer. 1t soon leaked out that
little steamboat that had been lying at the
wharf had been suddenly hurried off down
the river by the Quartermaster having it in
charge, for safety, and it further came to
light that Horace Maynard, not liking the
near approach of Wheeler, had clandes-
timely placed his precious carcass on board
the said boat, and besides had taken his two
gallant sons with him. In other words,
Mdvadrd deserted The United States service Ia
he presence Of The enemy Under a strict
enforcement of the army regulations he
sooald hare been shot for desertiOHi And yet
he has the face, in the absense Of John
Williams, 70 charge him with harboring
Rebels John Williams was in Knoxville,
standing bravely up to his dnty, while
Maynard, with his darlings, was skulking
and fleeing like deserter as he was. We
have but just began this subject. More

All the foreign representatives, except
the American Consul, are preparing to
leave. A postscript to the same letter,
dated 9 P. NJ, says the affair in regard to the
French Minister was not settled as stated
in the letter. His passports were peremp-
torally refused, and he was told that be
could not depart from the country under
any pretense. The authorities informed
him that Mexico had an account to settle
with France for the part she took during
Intervention, and for the lives and property
destroyed during that period and If the
same is not properly and promptly ad-
justed, the Mexican government would
proceed against the property of French
subjects throughout the republic.

PHYsIOGNOMK--HOW GOVERNOR
BROWNLOH's Likeness STRIKES
THE UNBIASED PUBLIC.
From the Memphis Avalanche.

A recently taken Photographic Likeness
Of BroWnlow came into the possession of a
gentleman of this city a few days since,
and as he likes a joke he has since been
showing it to every Radical he has met,
and without telling who the picture repre-
resented has asked them whether the face
indicated a good man or a villain.
In every case the Judgment was unfavor-
able. One said, Il Is the face Of an I'M
mitirated scoundrel" Another thought
the mouth serpentine, but resolute in ex-
preston" A Radical doctor had seldom
seen so bad a face A Radical physiog-
nomist was of opinion that the mouth and
eyes. rs we'll as the shape OF the head, indi-
Gated mean but truoulent and uniorgig-
ing man" A Radical official said " a fell
low with such a fat, receding forehead,
coarse lower lip and big ears, is only fit for
State prison" One chap said il looked
ike Stokes, and was told that it was one OF
the SANS breed OF dogs. The droop Of the
left eyehd, the depression Of the corners Of
the mouth, the maniac STARE Of the eyes
were sevefally commented on. The coniu-
sion Of the parties when they we're told
I lhat the Villainous likeness was that Brown

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE report of
the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, July
II, 1867, says the Indians now at war are
Northern Cheyennes, Arapahoes, Mime
conion and Feton Sioux, the whole num-
bering about 1000 warriors. These were
the Indians who perpetrated the Pill. Kear-
ney massacre, and have since been carrying
on war in the north. On the plains fur
ther south the Southern Cheyennes and Ar
apahoes, about five hundred warriors, are
the only Indians known to be hostile. The
Commissioner condemns the military move
ment as inefficient to secure peace, and re-
commends locating Indians on a reserva-
ton, and indemnity for outrages COM
mitted by troops.
The following bill, introduced by Mr..
Holman, of Indiana, passed the House and
is now pending in the Senate: ~
Be it enacted, etc, That the widow,
minor children or parents, in the order
named, of any soldier who shall have dad
after having been honorably discharged
from the service of the United States, shall
be entitled to receive the additional bounty
which the soldier. would be entitled to re
ceive if living, under the provisions Of the
18th and 18th sections of an act entitled
an act for making appro priations for sundry
civil expenses of the government for the
year ending June 30th, 1867, and for othel
purposes, approved July 18th, 1866, anC
that the provisions of said act shall be SC
construed; provided, however, that sucl
widow, minor children, or parents shall
only be entitled to receive such additions
bounty in case where such soldier, if living
would be entitled under the provisions o
said act

HIGH co RT DECISIONS.
[Exrre-.Iy fr the Claron.D


A large number Of members of the
bar, and intelligent citizens of this
State, became subscribers of the
"CLARION," of jackson, upon IA posi-
tive assurance that the decisions of
the High Court of Errors and Ap.
peals would be promptly published
i'll that paper; and this assurance was
the main, if not the only, inducem, mt
for their subscription. This pledge
has not been complied with. The
undersigned is advised that but very
few Of the opinions of that Court, de-
livered since the commencement of
the term in October last, have been
published in that paper; that there
is large number and variety of de.
cisions of very great importance TO
the law and to the rights of citizens,
since that time, of which the "CLARI-
ON" has not published and that
those which have been published, for
the most part, are short and compare
ttrely unimportant decisions. For
long time, no decision of much impor-
tance has been published, while there
are great number of the greatest
moment to the public interest, that
have not been published.
This is a great wrong and serious
to the bar. Many
complaints have been made Oh &C.
count of this violation of a pledge, by
which many were induced to sub
scribe for the Clarion, and it is to be
hoped that this pledge will, in futu e,
be faithfully complied with. 1t tcOuld |
appear that these decisions are quite as |
important to the people of Mississippi, |
as the acts Of Congress rhich are so |
published in each number |
Of the Clarion" JUsTICIA.
