NOT SO.
The Chattanooga Republican of

The Chattanooga Republican of
the 9th inst. says :
Every man who votes on one Of Sem
ter's bogus certificates is not only liable
TO Indictment in the courts of Tennessee,
but also of being court martialed for
iolating his parole. This latter is the
privately expressed opinion of no less
distinguished q parsonage than Andy
johnson, given not one week ago to a
convention Of tho faithful in Nashville.
Ii may be that Stokes and his friends
won't insist upon an execution of the
law"
The statement as to what Presi-
dent Johnson says is based upon a
report furnished by the Nashville
correspondent of the Republican of
an imaginary interview between "a
committee of the faithful and the
cX-Presidcnt in this city on the
18th inst. We have the best authO-
rity for stating that no such inter
view took place, and that President
johnson made no such remark us
is attributed to him. His opinion
is TO the power to arrest and try
Rebel soldiers" for voting when

would have been far different to that
which now prevails and which has pres
vailed ever since the State government
was reconstructed, while her commerce
and finances might, and in all probabili-
tyi would have been in far healthier
condition than they now exhibit 10 has
never shown any evidences of real
craftsmanship, willie his enfeebled state
Of health, and his iron prejudices, have
rendered him utterly unfit for the posi-.
ton he has occupied for four years and
in the most critical period of the States
history"
The Enterprise charges that Gov.
BrownlOw is responsible for all the
bad feeling that has existed in this
State,as well as for the organization
Of the Ku Klux Khan, and the con-
sequent expenditure of thousands
upon thousands in the organization
and maintenance Of a militia force"
This is a sweeping confession from
a paper that sustained him with
a slavish devotion when he was
making the "Rebels" feel the weight
of arbitrary power. The thousands
Of Radicals who now see Gov.
Brownlow in the light the Enter
prise does were his most faithful
apologists when he was pouring out
his bitterest TRADES against the
citizens of this State-the men OF
wealth and intelligence and the
leaders of public opinion
whom he derisively termed
"Rebels" and "Rebel sympa-
thisers." They never raised
their voices against his usurpations
in carrying out his agrarian policy.
When he was tanning into flame
the smouldering embers of 4" mutual
hostility between the late loyal and
disloyal elements" these self-same
Radicals pronounced him ''noble
old patriot" and "christain hero,' y
but now that he has turned upon
them to stir up strife in their camp,
they can find no epithets too bitter
to apply to him. There is a poetic
justice in his turning upon and tor,
menting these Radicals, as they
complain he has been doing. 1t is
only because he is doing this thai
they have discovered that lie exhib
tied no craftsmanship in his admin
istration, but was simply a stirrel
up of strife.

AN ERRONEOUs STATEMENT.

A correspondent of the Stokes
organ, signing himself "a Voter of
Roane," makes up bill of indict-
ment against Gov. Senter, and one
of the counts is as follows:
EAST Tennessee looks to the fact and
remember that Governor Senter, at the
opening of the canvass, was introduced
by distinguished Rebel, to a Rebel
crowd, at the st. Cloud Hotel, Nashville,
as their friend, and who addressed them
as such, amidst shouts and hosannas.
The reference here is evidently
to the serenade of Gov. Senter at
the Stacey House on the evening of
June =, when he was introduced by
Col. J. w. Paramore, late of the
Federal army. In the few remarks
he made, Col. Paramore did not
mention "RebeP' once. What do
the Suckers hope to gain by the
publication of such statements as
that we have quoted? Could it
have been made by this anOny-
nous writer with any other than q
deliberate purpose to mislead?

TmEKADICAL WAR ON BKowNLOw

The present canvass has wrought
some wonderful changes, not the
least among which is the fact that
thousands of Radicals have discOv-
cred that GOV. Brownlow is q very
bad man; that he is a malignant
tyrant, and that to him moro than
10 any other man in the State is
due the terrible condition of affairs
which cursed Tennessee for four
years after the close OF the war.
The following from the McMinnville
Enterprise Stokes organ of the
9th inst. is a specimen Of the
opinion entertained by Radicals of
their former trusted leader:
"No man, living or dead, is responsible
Cor the state of affairs that exists in
Tennessee, to the same extent that ex-
Gov. Brownlow is. WELDING the bitter
est pen, and entertaining the bitterest
feeling toward Rebels, he eXerted an in

Government. resulting in the passage Of
a law DISTINGUISHING the masses OF the
people who had participated in the Res
bellion, eliminating in feeling of mus
tnal hostility between the late loyal and
disloyal clements, which has produced

"uELP ME, CAssTUs. OR L SINH"

We are informed that when Gov.
Stokes read his Boutwell, letter, and
Creswell telegram at Pulaski, Gov.
Senter in his rejoinder, demanded
that he should read the letters and
dispatches which he (Stokes,) had
had written to evoke them. Gov.
Stokes did not do so, nor did he
offer a reason for his refusal.
At Columbia yesterday, in his
opening speech, he made no re-
ference TO them and when
Gov. Senter in his reply, again
demanded that he should tell
the people what character of cor
respondcnce he had been holding
with cabinet ministers in regard to
the coming election in this State, he
was silent again.

have since received from lady ia Georgia
some tea seed, the produce Of her own shrubs,
which are large and nut-like as an acorn. OF
these I cannot report 30 fayorablg, because of
want of care.
I suppose you know that the people Of East
Tennessee have turned their attention quite
slargely to the culture of the tea plsnt. 1
would have thought that section of country too
cold for field culture OF the tea plant; but the
newspapers Say not. No doubt the eastern
shores of North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia and southwark. would suit the tea cul-
ture better. AMADEUS.
