They had tj keep thccollar tight to keep from

Bully for the wagon,
The new Secession wagon,
Oh! Kcnury hold the ling in,
While you .ill take A rjdo.
; The axles wanted greasing?the bqdy wasn't
' wide,
North Carolina jumped into it, Mi> isftippl l?y j
her Hide;
i Virginia took a cushioned seat, and Louisiana j
next,
South Carolina got to 'scrouging" and Florida i
got vexed.
Tiiey asked Kentucky to take a ride, she said
"the horse was blind,"
She shook her head at seeing Tennessee jump I
on behind;
Hut Jeff assured her "all was r?ght," the wag
on it was new,
Missouri winked at Beauregard, atid said "it :
wouldn't do."
Old Scott brought out his wagon?one that had
run tor y ears;
They eaugh ,/ul Union, bitched hiiu up, and
greased his running gears.
Said Scott, " McQlellan, you're the boy 1 want
to fill my place,
So take the rein*, and get the f/iks, aijd givp
fc'ojcsh a race."
New Vorkand IVnnsylvani-, with n host of
Yankcv boys,
Oot up ?.it<? the wagon, and thvy called for Il
linois!
And old Ohio, sliu'jumped in, Missouri tried
ijer luc^,
And Indiana thitow her arm around good old
Keutuck.
Old Union throw his head back?he tiaveled I
laiiier slow,
[Tntiltliey reachol Man.usas, they halloed
"let him go4."
Their cheers for Union made him put new
mottel in hts heol,
lie run into "Secession"?tore the spokes out 1
of a wheel.
They took the broken wagon back, and put in
all new spokes,
Seeesh went out towards Kcutuck, to tell it to
thoMks-, ~<**....
Old Union started after, and he mide the wel
kin ring
When lie run into Srcossioy $.t a little place? :
"Mill Spring."
Sece*h got scared and run away?the like was
never *ccn,
Old Union threw .his head back, and sailed
through Bowling Green ;
Seeesh ran to th ? Cumberland, and couldn't i
get across
He broke t he reigns that guided him, and trus |
led to the ho2H.
Old Union got his "dander up" and passed him j
"under way,"
He run into Fort DoucNon, but didn't go te stay i
Teime-sec fell out of the wagon, and the bal- !
ance of them cried,
Aud asked .McCleHan. av he passed, "Say j
Mister let us ride."
They went from thereto Nashville, aud there '
they'll change the seen#*,
They'll grease the axles, turn old Union's head |
toward New OrleaiiK;
Diey 11 stop at Metvphis, feed the lies*, and 1
then they'll let him go.
To drag See call's rotten frame to the Gulf of
Mexico. j
j
Now Buckncr, he's gone up the spout, and j
I'loy^ has seen the sights,
Aud all the boys that went away with Buekntr j

Ah! boys, you've seen the elephant?I hope it

Til! you li be singing out with joy, "The U

PAHSON BROWN LOW IN OIXCLV
IS'ATI.
llis Straight Out Union Kpoeches?He |
is Hot aud Ilcavy on the Traitors.
Parson Bkow.vlow, of East Tennessee, i
ocompanied by his son, arrived in this i
city yesterday, and took quarters in the
Gibson House. At 0 o'clock the Union j
Committee met him in the Indies' parlor;
nnd ho was welcomed by Pollock WiU j
son, Esq., who alluded with emotion to I
the tecution. Tho Parson was much
moved by the coratolity of his rocoption,
nnd comtnonoed speaking with a statu*
mering vqIoo, end eyes till led with tears.
He giro some outlines of his political ro*
ccrd. He hod boon for Clay in 1839.?
lor Harrison in 1840, for Webster ir.
1&52, for Fillmora in 1855, for Hell and
Evorrett in 1860. Spooking of Hell nl* ,
ways reminded him of"pitty the sorrows
of a poor old man." He (tV Parson) j
bad novcr hod sympathy with Secession* ,
istn. Ho had been offered largo bribes
to sustain tho rebellion; but though he'
was o poor man ho was not for Hale*? 1
He gavo an accouut of his correspond- I
<nc?* with Judoh P. Benjamin, all of.
which ho had preserved nnd would pub.
li lt in his forthcoming bookj He could 1
j not ox press i lie jov ho fell in finding the 1
j old Union fins at Nashville, When the i
army went 10 East Tennessee ho wantnl j
10 go fllon^'. If was in Fremont's Do
DepartmeSfrnnd he was glad of it. Fro
ment was his ;ort of ,i man, and ho
wattled to go with him to east Tennes
see. There had been a treat deal of
hanging on one side, :u|d lie wished to
superintend it on the other. He ooutjl
any uii,| without profanih- (hat the Fed
eral nrmy would he h tiled with a joy
only cqii.il led by tho hosannahs of tho
angelj when Ciiris-t was horn.
lie never had any sympathy with
disoijionists,secessionists or abolitionists.
Ho was bom in Virginia and, his pa
roms before .him. Hois a slaveholder,
but lin bid no hesitancy in saying that
when the qupsliojtf come, as it will, "the
Union and no slavery," aguinst "slavery
and no Union, he was for tilo Union and
lot slavery go to the dog*, or where else
it nlay be sent. He was for tha Union
abovo tlut or any olh?r institution.
Tho wicked rebellion, lie felt conli lent
was on Its last leg... fi is ?|most p|H).p,|
out. When the rebel Criitondin's ttrrtiy
passod him, the men wore laterally bare
footed aud almost n.iked.
Tho bloolciHo has played H id h.ivoc
with thorn. They wero preparing to
make a desperate fight at Corinili. If
wliippcfl there, then their cause was
gone. l|o hoped they would be pursu
ed through the cotton Si?tPS to the pen
insula, and then driven into the sea, bs
were the devils driven from tho lio<'s
into the sea ol QallilUo.
The. nigger nover was in this rebell
ion. He was never intended to be.
Other causes had pro luted it, but the
guilty were reaping their reward.
After the reception the parson took
an airing with some gentlemen, driving
through Cliftou and other attractive su
lierbs of the city
He visited the Men-bantu' E*<hanfro,
where lie was introduced to the men h
ants by President Butler, and sopkc for
perhaps half an hour If,, showed plain
ly the marks of tho haril times through
which bo bnd passed, lie is very thin
and his face is- hajgered, bloodless a,, I
i reply marked with Buffering andanxiety.
He is, however, one of that rnco of tail!
n.irtiy, fiWbi-thy black haired E".st Ten
nesseoaus, who gave Tennessee tier old
tune glory as the Volunteer State, and
wote foremost in the battles of Andrew
Jackson, and with proper care he will
soon recover his health.
He gave a tnuchjng narrative of hiT
sullo""gs i mprison, of his illness, and,
TO ffini'1V^^loufi^I!if!l'il?^SoT
sick ho could not turn in bed without
assistance. Die j?il was crowded with
Union men! .Many sickened and per
ished miserably in it, and others were
taken out and hung. (ion. Carroll, of
the Confederate army who wa? at one
time a great friend of his, being a Un
ion uiau until a late period, visited him
in jail and said to him:
'Brownlow, you ought not to be here'
"So I think," the parson responded,
"but here I am. ' Tho General sii I the
Confederate Court was sitthtl within a
hundred yards ol thejail, and ifhewould
fak? the oath of allegiance, ha should be
immediately liberated. "Sir," sail the'
parson, looking him steadily ia the eve,
"before I will take the oath of alleidaiiec
to your botrus Government, I will rot
m jail or die here of old a;'e, | j0ii't 1
acknowledge you have a eourl. I don't
acknowledge you have a government.?
l! has nevei been acknowledged by any
power on earth and never will bo. Re
lore I would take the oatii I would see
the whole Southern Confederacy in tho
ill /uf>i?"s, nui you on lop'of it!''
riic General indignantly left tho jail
remarking "that ii d d plain talk."
"les sir-ee,' said tho Person, "I am n
plain man end them's my sentiments."
Frequently moil wero taken out of the
jad and hune; and tho reccsh rabble
would howl at him and toll him as ho
looked out from tho jail windows t'.atho
was to bo hung next. He (old them
from those windows that he was ready
to go to the gallows, and all |,o asked
was one hours lalk to the people before
lie was swung off, that he might <WV0
i .,ns of llja moti'called ?thc
Southern Confederacy. The Parson said
ho expected to be hanged. He bad
J" up Ins mind to it. At ono time !
bo was tried by court martial, and In the !
decision pf his ease ba w within one!
vole of being sentcn id to bang. There
was nothing betwocn him and tho ?al- !
