"Bin Ari?."
The Chattanooga Gazette is after tho
redoubtable ""Bill" with a " sharp
stick," in regard to some allusions
made in his lato lotter on the state of
tho country. The article begins as
follows ;
Tile latest aspirant in the arena of
comic (?) literature bas written a letter
published in tho Nashville Republican
of Sunday, in -which be indulges in
considerable growbng at some things
which do not suit bim in the recon?
struction of the country. Perhaps
ho bas a right to do it, but we submit,
Bill, that your attempts at ' 'harmo?
nizing" aro not likely to succeed,
while you are indulging in such terms
as cabing the Union men of the South
"tories" and 1 'slink-hearted fellows, "
and the Union men of the North,
''Black Republican pups." Because
you could not kill oft" "your enemies"
as fast as they were imported, is no
reason why you should keep up au
ill feeling which true men are trying
to smooth down. Do you expect to
better the matter by the uso of such
language as this ?
The following is the reply to tht
same, published in the Koine ('OKrici
of the 9th iustant :
m.Xj ASP TO THE EDITOR OE THE CHAT?
TANOOGA GAZETTK.
Gentle Sur : I dont think you tote
fair. I bavent expressed my lase
rated feelins in publik but twice sinsc
the war. I dident li ve in Chattanooga-,
and I dident have no Gazelt. Foi
about three months you bullied us ir
your paper to your ? utire satisfaction
Until Mr. Johnson sorter took up foi
us, you never sent a sheet to Borne
that dident hurt our feelins and Lori
into our hearts like a cotton gimlet
You copied from Yankee papers tin
meanest of their slander, and it seem
ed to be perfectly congenial with you:
sentiments.
Well, sur, wc: bore it like an Injun
We bore it silently and proud. Wi
looked at our desolated land, ou
lonesome chimneys, our grave-yards
where you unhurried our dead am
sunk your rille pits : where you brok
to fragments tho iron railing, am
took tho very tombstones to put i:
your fortifications. We read you
exaltations of Northern bravery an
Southern treason, and we skorae
you from the bottom of our hearts
Now When of late an humble indivic
ual makes bold to bust bis biler an
express his sentiments in two bree
letters, yo" sro* up like a sanktifte
preacher and read I" im a publik lei
ture about harmonU in. Gentle su?
it dont bekum yo\. When Ire ii
suited yon about 2000 times we wi
be even. But I dont intend to insu
you at all. If you are an honest mn
anda generous conqueror, I aint aft<
you. When you make an effort 1
convince Mr. Harper's Weekly an
the black republikins that our pe?
pie, from General Lee and Mr. Dav
down to the high privates, are just j
good, and brave, and honorable i
they are, I'll harmonize with you.
But Gentle Sur, bavent you apr?
yourself too fur from homo ? Wh
have you been doin about harmoniz
your own people ? Oar little buri
city is fast Ullin np with your be
citizens. Dunn the war you let c
stay, but after thc war they are forci
to leave. Dike exiles, they are see
ing refuge in Cherokee Georgy, ai
there stands your paper like a lam
less, lightless beakon on tho shoi
and sustains the men and measur
that made em leave. Yon are see
em day after day dosertin your Stat
and you look away off and empl<
your pen in lekturiu a poor strang
about harmoni/.in.
Gentle Sur, shorten your sight
Begin to work on your home concer
or you'll lose all your best soeiet
They are welcome here, and we'll ?
stand by em, but then I hay al wa
thought that every great State oug
to hav som*' good men left in
Don't von ? Gent?o Sur, tote fair.
Not yours BILL ABB.
Brownlow on thc Rampage.
STATE OP TENNESSEE,
EXECXJTIVE DfipAJBTMEKT.
N Ami \ LUUJ-., ?uv. 15,160?.
EDS. CINCINNATI GAZETTE : In. your
paper of Saturday, I find this notice:
Governor Brownlow w?us robbed of
!:?500 and his watch, by some high?
waymen near Nashville, while he was
riding out with the Honorable Horac e
Maynard, on Friday evening.
This is a mistake. It was my son,
the Adjutant-General of the State,
who was riding ina buggy with a son
of Horace Maynard. I am too pru?
dent a man to ride out on any road
leading from, or coming into Nash?
ville, other ?bau a railroad. This
whole country abounds in thieves and
robbers, any of whom would murder
a man for his watch or for a five
dollar bill. Despite all tho. vigilance
exercised by the civil and military
authorities, murders ?ind robberies
are of daily occurrence-both in Nash?
ville ?md tho surrounding counties
of Middle Tennessee. As loud and
as numerous as ave the complaints
against East Tennessee, hythe papers
of Nashville, and a certain cl&SS of
politicians, there aro live of these
outrages perpetrated in Middle Ten?
nessee to every one that occurs in thc
eastern division of the State. To be
candid, there is almost as much dis?
loyalty in Middle Tennessee now, as
there was in 1861. And this is so of
the whole South, minus the number
of disloyal men who aro under ground !
Tennessee is in a much better condi?
tion than any one of the seceded I
States, and she has great room for
improvement. Six or seven out of !
her eight representatives to Congress j
are true and loyal men, and for the
good of the State and nation, I j
should like to see them admitted to j
seats in the approaching session. But j
this I cannot say of the other South?
ern States. They will not elect loyal j
men to Congress, nor can a loyal man j
be elected Governor of one of those
States. Their Conventions and Lc- |
gislatnres are overwhelmingly rebel, j
and will be for years to come. Their
candidates for Governor, Congress
and the Legislature, as well as for
county offices, urge their claims for
votes on the ground that they had j
done all in their power to aid the j
rebellion. They are for assuming the
rebel war debt, and they are for le- I
gislating Northern men out of the
South !
In a word, the rebels of the South j
have by no means abandoned this
long cherished idea of separating the
Government. They are looking to 1
this end; andmon', they are organiz?
ing with a view to this result. They
do not propose to dissolve the Union
by the usc of the sword and bayonet.
They have tried this in a wicked war
of four dreary years, and signally
failed. Their purpose is to accom?
plish their infernal plans through the
ballot-box in Congress, and they look
to the Copperhead Democracy, and
other Northern traitors, to aid them.
Thank God, the recent elections at
the North have blasted their hopes
for the present, and taught them that
the real people, the loyal masses of
the great North, ?re all right.
My hopes for the future axe in the
goodness, the obstinate loyalty and
determined purposes of the Republi?
can majority ia Congress. I pray
God they will not admit rebels into
Congress indiscriminately, because
they have taken the amnesty oath, or
obtained the Executive pardon. As
President Johnson said, let them oc?
cupy the back scats for a few years.
I am one of those at the South
who believe this war was closed out /wo
years too soo?.' The rebels have been
whipped, but not whipped enough.
For saying these things 1 expect to
be abused by the rebel papers South,
and by all traitorous sheets at the
North. Let them say out ; I am able
to stand their abuse. I am for the
American Union, regardless of the
hate of sections, tho war of parties or
? the malice of individuals. I have the
honor to be, very truly and sincerely,
W. G. BROWNLOW. "

Though the destruction of tho American
Museum has proved a serious loss to my?
self and the public. I am happy to verify
the old adage, that "It's an ill wind that
blows nobody good," and, consequently,
congratulate von that your well know!
safes have again demonstrated their supe?
rior fire-proof qualities in an ordeal of un?
usual severity.
Tho safe you made for mo some time
ago was in tho office of tho Museum, on
tlie second Moor, back part of the building,
and in the hottest of the fire.
After twenty-four hours of trial, it was
found among the debris, and on opening
it this day bas yielded up its contents in
very good order books, papers, policies of
insurance, bank bills, all in condition for
immediate use. and a noble commentary
on tho trustworthiness of Herring's Eire
Proof Safe. Yours truly, P. T. BARNUM.
