Freeman Ffzzaea.
Special to the Union ana American.
. KNOXVILLE, TENN, Oct. 14.-Brown
and Freeman spoke here to-day to q good
crowd. The result was complete wiping
out Of Freeman. Nothing like it in the
way of political discussion was ever wit
messed here. The Radicals were opposed
to Freeman's nomination in the first place,
and their support has beenl lukewarm, but
when Brown exposed his record, showing
how he attended the Philadelphia Conven-
ton in 1866, voted for Etheridge against
Brownlow in 1867, denounced negro
and supported Seymour and
Blair In 1868. the Radicals were dumb
founded. The leaders hung their heads
and withdrew from the house. Even the
colored listeners retired in disgust. They
had not known what sort OF candidate
they have. Browns speech was tri-
umphant vindication OF his administration.
Freeman sadly disappointed everybody.
The leading Radicals openly repudiate
Freeman, and were the election tomorrow
somebody else would probably be comph-
mented with Whist Republican votes Brown
would not get. As candidate Freeman
is annihilated in Knoxville. They go to
London Tomorrow.
