We have been informed by telegraph,
the Western advertising medium, that
ex-senator and ex- Governor Brownlow
has been preparing a reply to Senator
J~ohnson's speech against Grant and
his Louisiana policy. Ex-senator and
Ex-Governor BrownlOw is believed to
be consistent in th1s-that he is always
for the party in power. If Grant
shouldf fail in thenext campaign, ex-Sen-
ator Brownlow will hardly sustain him
in his appointment Of Horace Maynard
as Minister to Constantinople. 1t is
presumed he will then cry out against
"Zadok JONES'" "the humun cattle
and all "the common herd"
Gov. Brownlow does not belong to
any but the Know Nothing set of pol
iticians. If he has changed his poll
tics or his religion, let him speak out
He is of age and has no right to claim
minority as the cause Of his silence
He cannot plead the "baby-act."
His attack upon Judge Frazier is
weak effort. All here know Brownlow
certainly all know Judge Frazier
They remember the miserable little eff
fort which was made by Gov. Brown.
low and his minions to crush The
honest '1oyal'' Judge who dared do bis
duty. Brownlow and his party i'm
peached and disfranchised the honesI
Judge, and yet that Judge, a Republi
can, is to-day one of the most honored
of our Judiciary, elected, too, in the
teeth and in despite of Gov. Brownlow
Such was Gov. Brownlow's strength IL
the past. Then, it was simply defeat
Now, it brings disgrace.

While the Pennsylvania miners give
NJ. indication of yielding, short Of a
full concession to all demands, there
hasbeen a general settlement Of labor
trd7bles In New England, which would
be very cheering to business men, if a
lurking suspicion could be dispalled,
that the strikers are only r~eorganizing
their forces for a prolonged and more
systematic campaign. Cerpin 1t is
that the woollen and cotton operatives
were never better organized among
themselves than now, the system Of the
English Trades UnionisS having been
introduced by members of the craft
from that country. The United States
Economist says the new plan of cam
paign is a virtual adoption of
the Napolecnic maxim to "overwhelm
the enemy IN detail" and at the same
time force them to bear the expenses
Of the war. Instead Of one general
strike, a rotation of small strikes Is
threatened. Two or three mills are
placed under ban by a central commit
tee, while members Of the Union con
tinue work at all the others. Thus
the owners Of the interdicted mills are
soon compelled to give the price de-
handed, or see rival mill-owners take
off their trade and profits. This ac-
compIished, two or three other mills
are dealt with in like manner, the
strikers of last week being now at
work and aDle to help the strikers Of
this week il turn. Such is the ingen-
ious device-of the English Unions by
which the business Of striking is sys-
tematic, so that one proprietor after
another is brought to terms, while the
few men out Of employment at any
given time, T easily supported by
those remaining at work. The rota-
ton and minor details are determined
by a central committee representing
the various societies Throughout the
district. Recent indications Of the
adoption Of this plan are sufficiently
strong to alarm the New England mill
owners, who are consulting how to
meet it successfully. Of course there
is but one effective plan, namely, for
the proprietors to refuse to be divided,
act as Il man, and enforce a .uniyer>
sal lockout, stopping all the mills.
But it Is not easy TO induce the
fortunate ones who are. still IN
disturbed, and may remain So
for months before the rotation
reaches them, to forego all the profits
they can make in the meantime. Each
mil-owner, as he is reached, will be-
come an earnest advocate for a general
lockout, but it-does not seem likely that
all. can be converted to this view until
a majority have been forced to yield to
the strikers. Then, if they find by eI-
perience that they can afford the ad-
vanced wages, it viii be as much their
interest, and perhaps easier, to force
up thewage-biIls Of their rivals than to
force down their own. We seem to
have but entered the treshoId ofstrikes
IN this country.
