Rebel Assurance.

We learn that the rebel Methodists Of Washing
ton county have obtained by sharp mau@uvre,
the court house in Jonesboro, and that they are
holding their meetings in it. This is of piece with
their customary tactics 1t illustrates their usual
want Of respect for the feelings Of the loyal people
of the country. 0utraging the feelings of loyal
men by their shameless course in advancing the un
holy cause Of treason and rebellion, SO that no
Union-loving man desires to hear them preach, or
to see revived in our midst that organiEation-th
NJ. E. Church, Eouth-which has wrought so mach
mischief and misery in the country, and which
would do It again if opportunity served they
shrewdIy come IN and obtain the use Of a building
erected and kept up for the administration of law
and Justice, when treason should be made odious
and traitors punished, for their so-called religious
purposes thus perverting the sacred temple of jus
tice to the furtherance of their disorganizing and
injurious schemes. The loyal citizens of Washing
ton county owe it to themselves and 10 the cause
in which they have suffered so much and SO nobly
to put stop to this. Mr.. Dosser the leading spirit
in this reasonable organization deserves the repre-
henson Of all true men for his past course in this
wicked cause Of rebellion. It s we'll known. He
cannot escape the responsibility Of his conduct. he
should be content, permitted to live in safety and
quietness under the protection of the laws and gov
ernment he in vain sought to overthrow, without
trying to galvanize the dead carcass of that most
rebellious organization--the NJ. Z. Church, South.
Let Union men keep strict guard and not permit
their enemies TO overreach and flank them.

A Disguised Conservative.

The audacity Of some Of the devotees Of the late
"so-caled has, in East Tennessee, disguised few
Of those who have been most bitter in denuncation
of Radicals and most strenuous in advocating :" the
immsd ate restoration Of our disfranchsed fellow
citizen. TO all the rights, privileges and immunites
of full and complete citizenship"
An amusing incident illustrating this occurred at
Rogersville few days since.
Major w. w. Willis went from the Federal
my into the Tennessee Legislature in April, 1865.
From his entrance into the General Assembly he
was favorite with the rebel party, and opposed
their Acknowledgement. He bolted from his seat,
and to prevent the Acknowledgement of rebels tried
to break up the Legislature, for which he was mar
tyred by being expelled from the House From
that hour 10 the present he has been enthusiastic
Conservative.
few days since q prominent, active rebel APP
preached Major W. and informed him that at a GER
tain time while he, Willis, was in the army, horse
was taken from him by the regiment battalion
with which he was connected. That such proceed
ings we're unconstitutional" and he demanded
from Willis receipt for his property. The Major,
who had been inlbibing little, and not in a very
good humor, "tcok one eye" on his Conservative
friend and went for him" dealing him a stunning
blow between the eyes which Frustrated him.
Looking upon the PROSTATE form, Major Willis
said: "God d---n his impudent rebel soul I've
been for him and all "sich,' and done all l could
for them but damn me if ever 1 expected such i'm
audience from them"

Mexico.

The official journal of the city of Mexico has be-
gun the publication Of the most important doca-
ments captured from the Imperislists Among
other things it prints the proceedings of Maximil-
ians Council of State. From these it appears that
the order for the execution Of Juaris prisoners was
not designed as a mere scare to the enemy. In the
session Of the Council on the I'd Of October, 1865
be made speech in which he said he had tried le-
nienoy in vain and had decided to issue law pro-
viding for the repression and exemplary punish
ment Of the bandits and malefactors-that is, the
Juarists--and that the law would be inhexibly OBJ
served A curious letter from Macmillan to Pres
ident johnson has also been discovered. 1t was
written in October, 1866, but never sent owing to
opposition On the part Of the Imperial Cabinet
He addresses the President as my great and Good
Friend, and announces the publication of procla-
nation addressed to the Mexican nation, urging on
the Juarist chiefs the cessation of war; and gen
eral vote of the people decide the form of govern
ment they might prefer. The object of the letter
was to ask the Presidents interference and infu-
ence to induce the chiefs TO accept the invitation

The RumOred DeTalcatIon.

The newspapers are publishing . rumos
to the effect that Captain S. B. Brown, Re-
ceiver Of the Memphis, GAINESVILLE and
Louisville Railroad is a defaulter to large
amount, variously estimated at from 500, 900
to 100000 Brown was appointed by
Gov. Brownlow and recently removed by
him. he was, among other considerations,
removed for not paying the interest due the
State from his road and because the Gov.
ernor differed with him as to the policy he
pursued with reference to the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad As to whether he
is q defaulter or not we do not know. The
Governor has no information on the subject
save the bare rumor publishedin the papers.
We suppose that in q short time we viii
have some light on the subject. The Louis
vile C0urig Of the 31st ult.. a Rebel-Demo-
cratic paper makes the following statement
in regard 70 the matter
we have received information, from the
highest and most reliable authority, that
the statement made by our Nashville spec
ial on the 29th, that Captain Brown, the
Receiver Of the Memphis, GAINESVILLE and
Louisville Railroad, Is a deiaulter. is with
ont foundation in truth. His report 70 the
Legislature win b. submitted in a few days,
and viii fully vindicate him from such a
charge. We make the correction with
