BROWNLOW.
How he Appears 10 a RaaIcaI
respondent.

Washington Correspondence Chicago Tribune.l
called on Parson Brownlow, Of the
United States Senate, last Sunday. He
has the most marked case OF ancient
scTiptursl palsy that / ever saw. He
boards at the celebrated boarding house
Of MIS-. Carter, on Capitol Hill, and
when l waited on him l found him lying
on his back upon lOunge, his hands
moving ia the slowly listless way of one
who fingers the cOverlet5 and bsbbles of
the green fields. Helplesness of hands,
pitiful reaching out for perch, for rest,
for support; this was the mans move
ment; but in his fixed, concentrated
face, without tRitch or tremor in it,
there lay the steady purpose Of will
that never wavered The face was all
rock, the hands were all crab. White
they were and thin, and between his
forehead and his knee they fluttered like
8 pair Of weary gulls between coast aud
coast. Bu5 on his pale face, not notle ia
its proportions, not high nor intellectual,
nor large in its benignities-his two
calm eyes looked like q search warrant,
and his smile was essy as kings.
A piUched face il was; short, bony,
with Indian cheeks, and the b airs were
young aud smooth. His mouth shut so
CLOSE llal IuS ctleekS puCkSI6U WQeTe
you and I show side Gimples. Beside
aim were his son and son-in-lsg, dutiful
and respectful, the former inheritor Of
his newspaper chart, and like the old
man in many things. Brownlow walks
70 the Senate every day, and takes his
pIGcs with powerful pride. Vanity is his
immortal motive. His ability is like
that of William the Normsn-terTi5le,
long, unfelentiDg. His government in
Tennessee mas been oriental IN its abso-
lutism, yet in It's results extraordinary.
The State is calm, the flag is upheld,
there are no weaknesses in the law for
superficial subservients to ship through.
The old man decreed his constitution,
formed it after the fashion OF black
smiths wise, and had it enacted by
compulsory quorum. Those vote whom
he declares citis sns-no more. The South
has it revealed to them that not out of
the North c me ths tramplers OF their
broken spirits, but out OF their own civil
izatiOn. An ancient stakeholder and 8
defender OF the Divine right of masters
is he Who gives them to make bricks
without straw, and the bulrushes for the
children's cradles.

provides for fifty female clerks, and desks
are arranged for that number yet ex-
Postmaster General Randall appointed
one hundred and five. During the two
weeks Immediately prior to his exit, he
appointed thirty female clerks ; and for
what reason Heaven only knows, since
nearly one fifth Of those already en-
ployed had nothing to do-nay, not even
a seat in the Office. l can conceive OF
no earthly object Randall had in appoint
ing these women, unless it was to EN-
barrass his successor.
"In conclusion, hold that women who
are competent to perform the same labor
as men should receive the same compen-
sstion, and be subject TO the same eOndi-
ton, for violating which they should be
dismissed.
1 Every woman employed should be sub
jected to the same examination as men,
and personal beauty or iaxity Of morals
ought not to bs q recommendation, as is
too often the case. The examining board
should be women. Iu order to prevent
corruption in all bureaus where women
are employed, there should be female au-
ditors. Ihave an instance in my mind
where one malicious woman clerk caused
the removal OF some five or six faithful
m6DJ SlLUpl DtC0 u 50 tlt6y A6Iu5cG " t6uu
money to her hu- band, (?) 8 worthless
blaekgusrd, who never pays his debts.
am happy to state that the auditor who
msde these removals has just resigned
and gone 10 the West.
Congress or the President ought to af
ford us some protection, if they allow US
to occupy offices. We ought not to be
insulted by having the paTsmOurs and
mistresses of members OF Congress forced
upon US, and be Obliged to tolerate their
society day by day. Let Mr.. Boutwell,
clean out the ritf-raff and pollution of
his department. Let him appoint moral
ald competent women; then let Us be
paid according 10 our merits. Such is
the earnest prayer Of every honest wo-
man clerk. HANNAH TYLER

"Yes," he said lsughingly, "the old

which they might not and probably
would not have otherwise taken. This

English orators. When | was learning
my trade at Raleigh, n. c., gentleman
used to come into the shop and read

jOyed it so much, he used frequently to
come, and finally gave me the book,
which was the first property L ever

the book | am unable TO say, but / am
