What Senator BrOwnlOW's Political Enc
mics Say of Him.

The following we clip from the Lactede
! County Leader, published at Lebanon.
Mo-, by John E. Helms & Son, and edited
by G. w. Bradfield, formerly editor of the
Knoxville Register Mr.. Bradfield was
here in that exciting period just precedin g
the war, but though a large majority of
the people differed with him politically
all agreed that he was an accomplished
gentleman, personally:
"Our old cOtempOrary is not lost to mcm-
DRY. Let others sag and think what they
please, with us he is kindly remembered.
We neither seek to excuse or palliate
his faults, or throw even a veil over
any part of his record. Let them all
stand out in "bold reliefn side by
side with the man-0S he sand none
can fail to discern redeeming traits.
Were we to attempt to delineate his char
acter we would thus describe him: Not a
demon, but man. Not an angel, but q
human. A positive type with but few
negative elements. Faults, also virtues.
Passions, also noble impulses. A bitter
enemy, an answering friend. Vindic-
tive, also fOrgiving. Thinks for himself
forms his own OpiniOns-and recognizes in
others the same rights. In editorial war
fare, fearless in attack-ready liz defense.
Can WELD the polished lance or shoot the
barbed arrOw-give the 'retOrt Courteous
or blow crushing.
a good judge of human nature-knO'Ns
when and how to attack and how to Gle
fend. Obstinate as mule, and cannot be
driven an inch. In the domestic relations,
all man could be, a model son, husband
and father. His house is theabOde of ge II
uine hospitality. He is full of benevOlen ce.
No mans hands or purse more ready or
open to relieve the wants and needs of the
sick or distressed. Take him all in all, he
is better man than some of his revilers;
and, in face of all he has said and done,
is better friend to his State ap d the peO-
pie of his native South than some who
have aspired to his present seq t, or look to
its future occupancy.
That many will look upon these lines
and curse the author, may be. But we say
to them: we know Of whom we speak
and to whom we speak. That they may
their reyilings and make bitter
the few remaining years that may be left

ness or look to them for atOnement. And

Mr. Alonzo Murphy met with sad accident
Sunday afternoon while returning from Beth

His stirrup leather broke and his horse taking

cut an ugly cash above the right eye and other
severe injuries were sustained.
