THE WHISKY REBELLION IN EAST
TENN EHREE

"LOyal East Tennessee" is suffering
in reputation Some of the men there
who shouted loudest and voted longest
for Gov. Brownlow, seem TO regard that
service as having absolved them from all
legal restraint Perhaps they were under
the impression that they could violate
United States laws with the same impu-
nifty that they do the laws of this State.
They are, however, finding out that the
laws of the former are not all made to
punish Rebels alone, as is the case
here. 1t is a wholesome lesson, and will
be Of great service in begetting in them
fitting respect for law when the present
ruling dynasty in Tennessee shall be
hurled from power. There was little
whisky rebellion in Claiborne county a
few weeks ago, and it appears to be a
loyal affair throughout United States
cavalry were sent from Nashville to sup,
press this little rebellion, but it is feared
they did not succeed, as only one of the
leaders was captured. That was Black.
stOn Williams, who was brought to
Knoxville, where he had hearing
before Commissioner Aiken on two
charges; first, running an Illicit
STILL and second, making an. assault upon
the Deputy United States Marshal and
Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue
and Obstructing them while in the dis
charge of their official duties, and inn
prisoning said officers, and taking from
them their horses and committing other
wrongs and injuries in violation of the
United States internal revenue law. The
prisoner brought in no witnesses. Cons
missioner Aiken found him guilty of
both charges, and held him in $1,000 bail
for the first, and $500 for the second In
default of bail, he was committed to Jail.
The Knoxville Press and Herald says
"The prisoner is a very determined look
ing man, and is said to be a prominent
member of the League, in Claiborne
county, which, of course, makes him loyal.
From Col. Alternately, we learn that
the still is located in valley, surrounded
by high mountains, down which the party
had TO lead their horses, and that the whole
country is so mountainous, that il would
be very easy to ambuscade party going
there. 1t will be impossible to collect the
revenue in that county without military
assistance, and not very easy with it. 1t
is just the place for guerrilla warfare.
'The people Of Claiborne county sympa-
thize very strongly with the distillers and
believe that the whisky tax is clearly I'M
constitutional and disloyal. There are a
few who are law-abiding, but they dare not
speak, and a number Of them refused to
act as guides TO the party that went out
there, for fear that the distillers would kill
them. We fear that the whisky rebellion
is not yet over, and that the next attempt
to collect the tax, or suppress illicit stills
will be met with more serious resistance"
This is not very creditable to loyal
Claiborne, which gave 795 votes for
Brownlow for Governor to l59 for his
competitor The Governor should teach
has loyal d subjects better morals than
to treat as " disloyal the law of a
" loyal " Congress and of "the best gov
eminent In the world 4"

ALADY EDITOR-AD INTERIM.

The following is the salutatory of Mrs.
Fanny B. Galloway, wife of the editor in
chief, in assuming charge Of the Mem,
phis Aualanche during the incarceration
of her husband by order of Judge Hun
ter of contemplate fame. 1t has noble
tone, and we have little doubt that the
Avalanche under Mrs Gallaway's con-
duct will make the infamy of this modern
Jefreys more CONSPICUOUS than before.
With all the gallantry due her sex, we
welcome her to the corps editorial:
Twenty-six years ago, gave my girlish
heart to the husband whose name proudly
own. We have lived through adversely and
prosperity, but in whatever condition our
lots have been cast calumny has never dared
to assail my husband name Notwithstand-
ing this fact, he was yesterday torn from his
little family and is now a prisoner in
the county jail; but, thank God, he is a
prisoner without a crime. BE has been
torn from his home for the ofense of
exercising the rights which are his by
the laws of the land. To a free country
a free press is as indispensable as light
is to day. 1t il, in fact, the sun of the
social and political system from which ems-
nate the healthy influences which pro-
duce vitality, strength and fertility. For
exercising rights which the constitution
guarantees, my husband has been incar-
cerated in jail. Not only my prayers, but
the prayers of all good people of both sexes
will follow him in his prison cell / shall
not speak unkindly Of the man who has
sought to degrade my husband and who
has brought unhappiness upon two fami-
lies. But as the principal editor and the
local editor have both been arrested, and
no freeman is allowed to speak through the
columns of the Avalanche, there is no other
alternative left but for me to assume the
position forced upon me by the persecu-
tons and misfortunes which despotsm
always brings upon the noble and the
brave. A preconcertsd arrangement has
been made to crush out the paper. 1t can
not be done. During the incarceration of
my husband and Mr. Campbell, | am con-
strained to take charge of the paper and
can be found at the editorial rooms of the
AUdldnche, and if men are not brave enough
to defend their rights and their liberties,
trust the paper, for the next ten days, will
prove that there is one woman ready to
defend the rights and the Liberties which
weak and timid men seem disposed to
yield. FANNY B. GAIIAWAY

TIE NEw HAMPsHTRE ELECTION.

The returns show that there is an in
crease in the aggres gate vote in this State
OF nearly six THOUSAND For eleven years
past, the Radicals have carried the State
by majorities varying from 1900 to 5000
that Of one year ago being 3l46 The
majority this year will be about 300
thus showing after a close and vigorous
contest on which the Radical party had
everything staked, they have lost 400
votes The whole circumstances consid-
cred this is nota favorable result for the
Radicals, though they are making great
exultation that they saved one State out
OF ten that have voted in the past twelve
months, for the Ohio result was ayirlual
defeat, as old Ben. Wade will any night
wake up to swear.

Of the court yesterday indicates dispo-
sition on the part of that body to deal

request for the time Of forty days in
