to ask what little sin the manages COM

further: what bad taste it would have
been for the CHRONICLE to relate the loss

close of the article to state:
''The readers of Scripture, as they peruse

day
THE INAUGURATION OF GEN. BROWN.
All the little and few of the great lights
of the rebel Democracy were on hand.
AT eleven, AM, the Senators entered the

of band. The galleries were crowded
with ''the people, Over the Speakers
stand were five United States flags some
| what battle-sOiled. A stranger to the pro-
| ceedings, after seeing and hearing all that
afterwards took place, would have con-
| cluded that these flags were trophies cap
| tured from the enemy. In few minutes,
music from the band announced that
the Governor and Governor elect were
at the bar of the House. They were es-
corted to the Speakers stand by the Com
mittee of Arrangements. Gen. Brown
was accompanied by his brother, Neil S.,
and Judge Pete Turney. Or. Hoyt prayed
an appropriate prayer, wherein he COM
mendeG Gov. Senter's administration for
its peacefulness, and prayed obedience to
law, peace, harmony, and good will.
'Dixie" followed from the band in such
style as TO show that was their forte.
The Governor read a written speech, 1.-THE
substance we have given. lie was as Vlo-
lent in denunciation of the Republican
party as though making a stump speech.
He declared that he would execute the law
without fear or favor; and dwelt long and
pathetcally on "Our wrongs"
1t was observed that Brown in hisspeech
called the Democratic party 1.-The people. /"
Judge p. Turney administered the oath of
office, and-Tennessee had new Govern
or! DR.. Somers then prayed beautiful
and appropriate prayer, and the ceremo-
MES ended.
At the conclusion of the prayer, the band
played, Listen to the Mocking Bird"
The band tried to play national air or so,
but was so unused to playing loyal tunes"
that one could scarcely recognize them !;
but Dixie and other rebel tunes were
played with gustO and JUNCTION.
