ausuration of Governor Brownio"'
BY Telegraph TO the Pittsburgh Gazette

auauration of Governor Browniow'
By Telegraph to the Pittsburgh Gazette
NASHVILLE, October l0.-Governor
Brownlow was inauguarated this morn
ing. lie appeared in the House OF Rep
resentatiyes and took the oath of office.
The inaugural was read BY his private
secretary. In it he expresses gratitude
for the honor of second election by
larger majority than was ever given for
Governor, but regards it as triumph OF
the principles represented in his nomi-
natioa rather than personal victory.
He paid the highest compliment to the
Republican party, the only organization
controlled by men up with the advanced
ideas of tie times, and guarding with
jealous eye the preservation OF the Union
Tennessee he spoke of as the harbinger
of new dispensation OF political affairs
in the South. In regard to Northern
men settling in the State, he said, 81
have witnessed with regret in different
localities in the State disposition to
nroseribe northern men and drive them
from the country. ] do not enter into
this spirit, nor will / administer the Ex>
ecutive branch of the State Government
upon any such principle. If men are
good enough to come to Tennessee and
encounter the cold and heat, in mud and
rain, of our climate, and face rebel bull
lets in putting down rebellion, they arc
good enou b to fill Offices of honor and
trust. w ut Northern capital, North
ern enterr ), &c. To get all this, |,
for one, am quite willing to take fair
proportion of Northern politicians but
/ yield to no man in my contempt for
that class of Northern men who come
among us, and for the sake of position
and patronage abandon their honest SEN
timents, and rebel sympathizers. The
inaugural concluded as follows lmplor-
ing for your guidance the favor of Al
mighty God, which is never withheld
from lawmakers whose cause is just,
shaped solely by the conception. lie
gives them of right aud duty. con
clude. with sentiment, which trust
may inspire all our action, "The Union
of the Republican party for the sake OF
the Union" ...r.

Why was IL?

The official returns of the late election
in this cour.~ "h0- very clearly that a
great many our citizens pi--" cry low
estimate on the privilege OF the elective
franchise. To such an extent is this the
case, that about 1000 voters, as compared
with last falls election, remained at home
or absented themselves from the polls.
The time that it would have taken for
them to have gone to tho election must
have been to them, very precious indeed.
Some people are SO throng that they
never have time to do what they ought
to do. They are appcaripgly anxious
that the great principles which they ad>
vocate should succeed, but they neglect
the very duty that is absolutely necessa,
ry to insure success. When the clec>
tions are over and the opposition have
either succeeded in elccting their men
or in making decided increase in their
vote in compaIi son with our own, these
stay>at.home individuals have the graft,
fcation of knowing that their neglect
contributed in very large degree to the
success Of their opponents. If as these
individuals some times say, it were true
that it would be pecuniary loss to them,
there might be some show of excuse for
them but it must be very rare case
indeed in which this is true. In our
county no voter need lose more than
three hours at most in order to deposit
his ballot, and it must be poor cause
that would not justify any man who is
entitled to vote, to leave his work
or business for that length of time.
This Of course applies to those who are
employed in the district where they are
entitled to vote. Careessness and in
difference on the part of Republicans in
regard to the exercise of the elective
franchise in the present situation of pub
lie affairs are little less than criminal on
the part of those who, unnecessarily ab>
sent themselves from the polls. In the
fall elections of 1866, when Gen. Gcary
was elected Governor of the State, the
aggregate vote of Butler county was 6605
at the late election it was 5601, falling
q. o.f of ll0o4 of this number fully 600
are Republicans from this it will bo
seen that had the aggregate vote of the
late election been equal to the vote of last
fall our Republican majority in the coun-
ty would have been equal to our major
ty at that time.
The decreased Republican majority
in this county is therefore, directly
attributable to the fact that many Re-
publicans had business elsewhere than at
the polls. While our majority is less
than it should be by at least 200, there is
nothing in il encouraging to the apposi-
tion. We have simply stated facts as
figures show them, and when the proper
time arrives, with the standard bearer as
indicated by the signs of the times, we
will more than roll up our old fashioned
majority, in yindication of the great
principles upon which our free govern
ment is to rest,

So says the New York Comnaercial.-
We credit the Democrats with possession
of the sagacity to perceive that the re-
cent elections indicate nothing permanent
in their favor. To men of intelligence
they bear no such Interpretation. To the
Republicans the elections are instructive
mot destructive, and they will make the
Republicans stronger by. showing them
what bcgets weakness.

NAPOLEON AND THE CaURCa.-Na-
poleon is not ready to cut himself loose
From the Roman Catholic { hureh, says
Paris letter: The Church party is
necessary to rhe Emperor, for after all
it is the only true conservative party in
France-the only one upon which he car
positively rely. All his other supporters
are liable to fly off in tangent, but the
clerical party, so long as he holds true to
them, will sustain him. And this is why
the Emperor was ready TO send an expe
diiion to crush out the rebellion in
Rome. Were Napoleon really the great
man which some Of his admirers claim
him to be, with all the elements of dis.
content about HIM, with the people cla.
moring for liberties which time and again
have been promised but never granted
them, with people the growing ,ppor-
tance of whose commercial aad in1rss
trial interests lead them to wish for
peace and quiet, while his uncertain,
doubtful policy is constantly keeping
them in fear of war-did he possess the
greatness and courage and patriotism
which his friends say he does. he would
give France her SO much desired internal
liberties, and at the next general elections
60 TO the people upon this issue saying
to them, you don't want me with
these, make some better arrangements
for your Government" But his threat,
ened Roman expedition proves that Ma.
poleon has not sufficient faith yet in the
people of France, and that be shll feels
the necessity of the clerical aid and in,
fuence to keep him in undistnrbed
power.

pondency, and especially, as the present
election does not decide against them the
issue which they have deemed and de-
clared SO often to be the principal one
for which they have fought and voted,
namely, freedom, the Union, equal rights
and just representation on the basis of
men, and not chattel property, in the
Federal Government.-Er.

The Democracy will delude itself with
the idea that verdicts have been rendered
in their favor, while, in fact, they are
simple, but emphatic rebukes of Radi-
calism. The party that, as party, was
disloyal, through war threatening the
dissolution of the Union and the des :
truction of the Government, will not east
ly be forgotten or forgiven.

THE ITALIAN REVOLUTION.

FLORENCE, October 1.-THE insur-
gents and invading parties in the provip'
ccs of Nitrebo have been concentrated at
Florence, where they have thrown up
entrenchments Many other places in
Roman territory have also been occupied
by the Garibaldians. Several regiments
of Pontificial troops have been sent out
to dislodge them, and the garrison within
the walls of Krone at present is very
small. A strong Papal force has left
Rome to prevent the junction of Menotti
Garibaldi and parties under his command
with the insurgents at the fortress. The
plan of the Garibaldian leaders seems to
be to draw the soldiers of the Pope away
from Krone, and then give their friends
in that city an opportunity to raise.

THE New York Times thinks that the
Republicans of Pennsylvania had no oc.
casion for being "dumbfounded with the
result of Tuesdays election" Our con
temporary supposes state of things that
does not exist. There is nothing in the
result to " dumiound" anybody, without
it be the eopperheads, who confidently
expected 70 carry the State by as many
thousands as their majority is hundreds.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania were
never in better spirits, and go into the
Presidential canvass with confidence
The disabilities which the last Lrgisla,
turc inflicted were enough to overthrow
any party. A long score of debts and
grievances, created by it, have been
dischar ged, and will no longer plague us.
Instructed as to the popular will, snd
warned concerning itself, the Republican
party will go straight forward in the path
which leads to v;ctory.-Pats. Com.

Pennsylvania Election.

1t is asserted and confidently believed
that at lea>t two thousand fraudulent
votes were poled il Philadelphia on last
Thursday, by means of counterfeit tax
receipts or by tax receipts given to lille

WE anticipate for the Republican
party more perfect unity of policy and
action, in the next canvass, than it has
had in the one just past. We have not
been unaware of tho existence, or of the
unfortunate influence, of some transient
and incidental hindrances to success in
the late campaign. These will be either
eliminated or held under control in the
fut ure, that the energies of the party
m ay rally upon the purely patriotic
ground which properly belongs to them.
Individual alterations must not be per-
mitted to lessen the party strength. 1t
may even be wiser to disown them, as to
a limited extent has been done, and to
drop relations to those who fasteD to them
than to jeopar disc success in an impor-
tant canvass, by tacitly bearing the bur-
den of an erroneous policy, or doubtful
sentiment. In unity there is trength.
