Knoxville 0ronieis. We commend II to the
earnest consideration Of our GsEELSY friends,

WHEREhs. The millennium has dawned and
the wolf 10 lying down with the lamb, and the
lion IN eating straw like an or aud the abul tiun-
it's and secessiOnists march under the same hag,
and the Radicals aud iebels walk arm in arm.
aud the free traders and prntectionists are cheek
by jowl, and the Irish and negroes eat out OF the
same dish, and HOrace Greeley and jeff Davis
sleep In the same bed and the sucking child is
playing IN the hole Of the asp. and women vnte
and ride a-straddle, and everything Is lovely anil
tue goose hangs high therefore,
KcsofUed, I. That inHsmuch as the time has
come for all men TO eat dirt and turn somersau uls,
and no man thinks what he says, or believes
| what he thinks, We unanimously recognize the abb
solute equality Of men, including negroes, wo.
men, and Chinese that we believe a mules ears
are as short as a horses, and that ihe leopard
Gun change his spots, and that the negro Is man
and n brother; and having always favored his
admission To the ballot box, we now welcome
him tO the social circle, having something of an
| idea that all the world was born ,of q monkey,
that things are not what thev used to bc. aud that
| there Is great deal nf UPSIDE downed-nass and
downside upward ness. and a bewildering mix
ell up sctive-ness generally.
RcsolUed, 2. That being In great doubt
| whether the rebellion failed or Sncceedtd, aud
not being certain whether Grant or Lee sur. en-
dered at APpomattYx. ard being Of opinion that
| the Sonth was either right or wrong, and the
North was either wrong or tig and that Mt ither
was to hurt, we are unanimously iu favor OF let

Re'olued, 4. That the Cons iuii n as Il is is

blood in defense OF American liberty, and iias
much as JEFF. Davis was nominated. we are
heartily in favor of Horace Greeley. believing al

eth and that all roads from Greeley 60 tn Grant
that Greeley was an 'iRinAl abltionist and abo-
rgninal secessionisi II at The bltionists and se
cessionisls always ked to the same end, and
their present combination is only q re ewAl O
past cooperation, and wonderful will IL Ue in the
eyes of all men when the arch enemv Of tha
