The Emperor NAPOLEON may be at once the ablest and profoundest statesmatt Of the time ; but it would he well for the warmest admirers of the policy of duplicity and usurpation to hold their judgment in reserve till time determines the verdict. The Mexican enterprise, till within a short time, seemed quite an artistic transac tion. But the course of French politics reveals such a topsy-turvey of blunders in this respect, that we cannot look upon it, however fine the spirit of specula tion which dictated the Mexican expedi tion, as anything else than a case of wicked improvidence at the expense of ths, people of France. It has developed au op position to the Emperor's policy which is steadily growing - more determined and strong. In the present troubled state of Europe, the Mexican difficulty only renders the imperial perplexities " eonfesim worse confounded." There is a spirit of liberty not yet at rest in France, to which the Em peror has more than once been compelled to confess his responsibility, and NAPOLEON has taken the worst means to satisfy this spirit by putting an Emperor over Mexico. If the ultimate object of a Mexican Empire is to recruit the wasted treasury of France, millions winch Fiance cannot afford must be sacrificed upon a venture. In accordance with the custom of despots, who gamble with the liberties of peoples, he will demand some reward frona Mexico for the gracious favor of having conquered ft. On the wretched fiction of a half forgotten debt 'which it was pretended Mexico owed to France, the Emperor has made a war of conquest almost avowedly for the purposes of robbery. He will ask pay for his piracy from the very country he plunders, and ex pects to obtain that pay from the men who have betrayed it. It is the baldest pretence that Mexico owes Nanonnex anything except the debt which every weak community must pay to the freebooter. Were every pretence veri fitd, the sum of reasons would not justify the costly war he has undertaken, either with the world or with the people of France. Is it his design to curb Republican power in America by placing imperial poveer in Mexico The war is already a cheek to our extention in other affairs than our own, and NAPOLRON is too astute not to know that from the freest country interne tonal rights and relations have the most sacred guarantees. If the occupation of Mexico expre.sses a Napoleonic idea that the Union is not to be restored, and that he may as well seize a foothold for con tingent advantage, even in that case France is likely to be a neighbor more unwelcome than dangerous to the future of the Ameri- can States, divided or not divided. On the other band, if a Mexican empire is lcAro _lames prediction of the restoration of the south, his position has less safety ; for no - thing will withstand a united and progres sive free country as great as this. If Mexico is to be a padlock upon the United States as regards European difficulties, the Emperor is much more innocent than wise ; for the new Empire will only prove a standing occasion for American interference with Europe. Thus, with the intention of im posing a curb upon America, he only gives Ibis country a just cause to be quarrelsome. In making empire in Mexico he weakens despotism in France, and raises up for the party of revolution in Europe a formidable ally. The complexion of Europe at this hour makes these considerations more evident Denmark, Sweden, and Germany are at war, or on the point of -war; Poland still asserting itself against the barbarity of Rus sia ; the spirit of revolution by no means ex tinct in Italy, Hungary, or even France ; the Emperor's life again threatened by Carbona ri ;"universal suffrage asked for in the French Assembly, and the Mexican enterprise bold ly condemned ; in brief, a general war and a general revolution imminent in Europe. What effect the great revolution of freedom and slavery in America will have upon this threatened chaos, NAPOLEON may dread most. Double-dealing with liberty on the one hand and despotism on the other is at best a precarious game. This Elondin policy demands a certain sort of admiration, but sup pose the great actor should fall from the pride which too ninth of that kind of equilibrium causes I? In a moment of real distress NA roLEON'S worst enemy will not be Europe, but the people of France. Tie is et too tough a substance and too strongly mixed with the destiny 'of Europe to die weakly or easily. This doubt, however, remains there may never be another Nerorzort on the throne of France. Whatever may be NAPOLEON'S future, his present has its trouble. We have no reason to say that every kingdom which owes a large debt is going to ruin, but we feel sure that France cannot afford to be at continu ous war. A report by M. LARnAnuitx. to the French Legislative Corps discusses the Ilexican question with great independence, and says: " We are continually borrowing ; we have altogether ceased paying off any poition of our debt." Here is M. LAI-MA BIIRE's exhibit : “We have borrowed two milliards fifty-four mil lions (E82,1e0000 sterling) by public subscriptiou 5 ore hundred millions (£4,000 000 sterling) of the Bank of France; about one hundred and sixteen maliiona (.£4,640,000 sterling) from the army fund a 111,4 time ; then about sixty.seven millions (X2,680,- 000 stellieg) from the same fund for works of public ht , ; plus one hundred and thirty-one millions (£5,- 240,000 sterling) on Trentenary bonds. We are about to borrowthree hundred millione(t r 2,000 000 sterling) in virtue of the law you have recentlfpassed, and thirty-two millions (.£1,280,600 sterling) on an issue Of 1,429,620 f. of three per cent. mites, which article three of the bill now before us proposes. Theag gtegAte_ 01 these loans since 1851 amounts to tWO milliards eight hundred millions (.z112,000,000 ster ling). Moreover, the Minister of Finance tells us in his report that from 1866 a charge of fifty millions f.E2,000,000 sterling) will have to be added to the budget to provide for the guaranty of interest on railway bonds. This, in substance, is the balance which we have received from the past. It should not alarm us, for it is only right to say that simul taneously with with these heavy burdens the an nual revenues of France have constantly increased. The indirect revenues have augmented from twenty lye to thirtymilliona every year, and yet the balance between the revenue and the expenditure has long since ceased to esist; for i twel v eun:throgh the official accsounts for the lest or fifteen years you will find that all the budgets show a deficit, with The exception of 1868, which shows a slight surplus, owing to extraordinary resoufees.” Even statesmen among the friendliest to NAPOLEON entertain the same apprehen sions with regard to the increasing French debt. The opinion that no alarm should be felt because the revenues of France have increased simultaneously with its heavy bur dens, is remarkably suspicious, taken in con nection with the other statement—that NA- PoLEoN is continually borrowing, and pay ing nothing. The Emperor's embarass ments embolden the Opposition. His use less wars in Cochin. China, Japan, ttc., are complained of; the abandonment of the e lean enterprise (consistent with French honor, of course) is earnestly called for. Unmistakably, the Emperor's war policy is regarded a failure --his Mexican scheme a piece of painfully-protracted Imperial botch work. At the same time the Preach Oppo sition take other strong ground on the libe ral side of politics. The Incleperilleare relre tells.us of an important meeting of Opposi tion Deputies, to organize amendments, to be presented to the French Legislative Corps, among which amendments are the following : , _ An amendment intended to combat the system, of official candidateshipe, sustained by Mat Marie, Thiess, and Berreyer. An amendment on behalf of the liberty of the press, the defence to be confided to MM. Jules iiircori anerouft, and Darimon. An amendment for individual liberty; M. Marie will '.speak upon this subject, and wilt attack the taw of general safety. An amendment for municipal Wier. ties, having especially for its object to restore to the .ohies of Paris and Lions the right of electing their elites ; the amendment to be supported by the-Mar quis of Andelarre. An amendment forthe evacuation of Mexico; MM. Thiery Berreyer, and Liticroult take pot in this discussion." since this meeting, M. TRIERS, supported by Imes Favren, has spoken- in favor of universal suffrage, Which the Emperor is said to favor remotely. But it appears in debate that the friends of the Emperor regard that he has granted all the liberty that should be desired, while the Opposition thinks to itself that France is far more safe with the representatives of the people than with NArOLEOR ; or, to speak in another way, if the people had their will, there mould never have been a war with Mexico. These various facts throw light upon the character of the man who must affect to favor French liberalism while he robs Mexico. what is to pay NAPOLEON for his con quest ? We presume that the Sonora silver mines could be ceded to France, but we doubt if the traitors who barter away Mexico are aware of the price they must pay, even if N.AroLaorr has reckoned how much he must lose to sustain an empire thousands of miles away. The proposed empire must really be French and not Mexican, for there is an ineradicable sentiment of liberty in Mexico 'which conquest cannot tame. It will need another NAPOLEON in Mexico to make this second usurpation good. French emigre thin may be reckoned upon ; but, unless the military safeguards are strong, we should not wonder if the French would become more Mexican than the Mexicans themselves. NAPOLEON has reason to plead, " Suffi cient for the day is the evil thereof." His present day is full of the Mexican evil. How lie will extricate himself ( 1 ' consistently with French honor," of course) without estab lishing and protecting a French empire in Mexico, it is difficult to see. It is plainly observable, however, that his own people would rather have hint abandon both Mexico and lilaxrittraikfT, for which troubles neither the Sonora silver mines, the favor of Aus tria, or the opinion of France, are likely to compensate him. England readily permits what it perceives will do him no good, and looks with only a careless, mercenary eye upon his crime and blunder. It will give "much offence," we think, >if NAPOLEON does not heed the voice of France and the admonition of America, so finely en pressed in the sagacious policy of Mr. SEW ARD. Later developments appear to prove some of our speculations. We are told that in the finest speech of his life the great French statesman, MMUS, after declaring that " universal suffrage is the divine right of our time," and that the "irresponsibility of the sovereign is the liberty of the country," uttered the warning so remarkable when coming from a statesman who has weather so much revolution, that the country would ultimately take its liberties, icwhat now respectfully asked for was not conceded. The concessions which M. Turmas demands, in behalf of the French Opposition, are the liberties of the press and the people. " Li berty in parliament," he says, without liber ty of the press, "is like telling a secret to ten people with strict injunctions not to men tion it to an eleventh ;" and " just as you say to the press, von may criticise within certain limits, so you say to universal suffrage you may elect whom you please within cer tain limits." The warning of M. Trouns seems the more significant and impressive that it follows the second conspiracy against the life of NAronnox. The last we hear is the rumor of another imperial coup d'etat ! Clearly NAPOLEON'S troubles do not end with Mexico. It is also apparent that the French people have never truly forgiven his usurpation. The tyrant is never safe, and the people have been actively watching for their opportunity. The breach between the Emperor and his subjects threatens to widen daily, unless he closes it up with new concessions. Resigning those wea- pans of power which he has wielded so long, NAPOLEON'S occupation would be gone. That the situation of affairs deeply affects the Emperor may be judged from a recent speech of consolation, in which he expresses "confidence in God and confidence in a mission to accom- plish. You may be astonished, as I am,'to see, at so short an interval, men hardly es caped from shipwreck . again call winds and tempests to their assistance. God protects France too visibly to permit the spirit of evil to once more call forth agitation." However religiously confident the Empe ror may be of his own peculiar mission, he has reason to avoid committing a crime against the rights of nations, when his own people threaten to avenge the world. The Alexandra. Our anticipationthat the Court of Exche quer would give judgment in the ease of the Alexandra on the 11th of January, the first day of Hilary Term, and not upon the 11th of February, as stated in some news papers, - was correct. The Judges, it appears, were divided in opinion, whereupon, ac- Cording to the British practice in such cases, the latest appointed puisne Judge of that Court (Baron noon.), who was in favor of a new trial being granted, withdrew his judgment, and the opinion of the majority then was against the new trial. - Under these circumstances, Sir ROUNDEL PALMER, At torney General, gave notice, on the part of the Crown, of an appeal to the Court of Exchequer Chamber, against such a deci sion. At this rate, " the law's delay" Will probably leave the case in statu quo until after the termination of the war. The Times says "For our own part, we cannot lament the division of opinion which postpones for many months the condemnation or release of the Alexandra. Such equipments as hers may or may not be legal. That depends on whether the Legislature, in the year 1819, fortunately provided against evils which the event has shown to be real, however dimly they may then have been foreseen. But we have no doubt at all that legal or illegal equipments of this kind are high ly impolitic, and might hedome =intolerable annoy ance to ourselves if we had the misfortune to be at war. Where thehull, the armament, and the crew of a privateer are all virtually supplied from the same port, the animus vendendi and the animus be& ligtrandi approximate Suspiciously to each other. We should be the last to sacrifice British shipowners for the sake of pleasing a foreign Government, but when the maritime interests of Great Britain hap pen to coincide with the claims of international comity, we can see little patriotism in the attempt to sail a whole fleet of ships' through the foreign enlistment act." Mr. Phillips and Mr. Garrison. On Thursday night, at a meeting in Bos ton, Mr. WENDELL PHILLIPS and Mr. Wit min LLOYD GARRISON found themselves strangely in opposition. Mr. Par',tars condemned in very plain language the licy of the Administration, asserting that the North must either crush the President into submission, or choose a different leader for the next four years. "To the Amnesty Proclamation," said Mr. PHILLIPS, "I say veto, and will to my dying day." Mr. GARRISON replied in defence of the Presi dent, and contrasted Mr. Parmars' late de claration, "that the President's character was a sun so bright that we could not see the few spots on its surface," with his as sertion in the debate, that Mr. Lriccota was ready to sacrifice the honor of the North to a sham peace. Mr. GARRISON affirmed the President had gone as fast and as far Is the people would sustain him, and com mended the spirit and purposes of his po licy. Then spoke . up Mr. STEPHEN Fos TER, evidently anxious to do something startling, and said : " The strangest event of history was then_ omination by WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON, in Tremont Temple, of the man who is holding the sword of the Union at the throats of a million of slaves." There is something yet stranger : it is that anti-slavery men should thus misunderstand the President. Mr. Prawns, however, has always thought, argued, and :declaimed in italics and exclamation marks. His intellect is incapable of moderation. A more violent thinker never lived ; his praise invariably rises into the most extravagant eulogy—his censure into the fiercest invective. He, utterly fails to appreciate the calm impar tiality of the President, or the profound anti-slavery spirit of his policy. Mr. Fos 'isles remark about the sword and the mil lion slaves is merely a gross imitation of Mr. Partaars' worst style. WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON is, and has always been, the true leader of the Ameri can Abolitionist% He has neither the bril liancy or the superficiality of4rlVlr. Part ma's. But we believe that no man lives who is more conscientious than he ; no man 'who better understands the .prbaciples of freedom. Mr. Prumrs always talks like a tyrant. He permits no difference of opinion, and to disagree =with him is to draw down the thunderbolt Far more liberal and generous is the mind of GA - nal - sox ; he who has suffered so much from bigotry has learned the beauty of charity. When.be was dragged through the streets of Boston by a mob he was calm ; when Southern planters offered large rewards for his head he was calm ; throughout this war he has been bold, steadfast, and calm, while Mr. PHILLIPS seemed whirled away 11111 by intellectual excitement. We are sure that WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON speaks for the great majority of the old Abolitionists, certainly for anti-slavery as it is now under stood by the people of the North. MR. FERN AIiDOL Woon says the war must cease. Why? Let us analyse his reasons : "It was commenced without cause" —Granted ; but who commenced it ? "It has been prosecuted without glory" --not granted ; deeds more glorious never were done than those of the volunteers of the North. Mr. Woon slanders the whole coun • try in denying the glory of Vicksburg, Chattanooga, and Gettysburg. "It will end in national impoverishment, disintegration, and ruin"—Why ? it is fought expressly to prevent these evils. " Those who favored this war favored disunion"—for instance, the President; General GRANT, Generals MEADE, BUTLER, Berms, two thirds of Congress, and the vast majority of the people ! Come, Mr. Woon, we cannot believe all that. " Peace is the only hope of restoration"- w -granted ; but war, energetic, and successful war, is the only hope of peace. "He was opposed to the conduct of the South, but was equally op posed to the conduct of the North, under the Republican_ policy"—it is no reason why the war should cease, that Mr. Wool) thinks his own Government no better than the treason which attempts to destroy it. Mr. Woon is giving public " brilliant receptions" in Washington, which are largely attended ; we suppose this singular argument is always introduced to add to the hilarity and hierri ment of his guests. Mn. JAMES Bnooss wi ites to the Et:press, from Washington, that the confiscation act likely to be passed by congress will deprive Fouthern men of the means to pay their debts to Northern merchants after the war. The amount owing to New York city alone he estimates at millions of millions. Mr. BROOKS suggests that the creditors of South merchants should organize and present their claims in Washington, and thinks they can save them through the act. Millions are now owing to merchants in Philadel phia ; but it is improbable that any loyal man will object to necessary legislation for the suppression of the rebellion because of possible loss indirectly resulting from it. It is unlikely that, with or;without confisca tion, ten per cent, of these Southern debts will ever be paid. Most of the claims are utterly worthless, and we cannot see what light, moral or legal, the creditors of rebels would have to be indemnified by the Go vernment for these indirect losses by the war. Still, Mr. Bnoovs' suggestion might be acted upon without any impropriety. WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, Dm OF, Tn. 29 Congressional. The Government is gathering testimony in the One of Provost Marshal Pion - , late of Baltimore, and he will speedily be brought to trial. Mr. °HASS submitted a bill of his own some time ago, to the Ways and Means Committee, providing for additional taxation. It was rejected, but it may be agreed to by the Senate Finance Committee, The HOMO Military Committee appointed a sub committee this morning to prepare a bill declaring the Raritan Railroad in New Jersey a national post road. The Camden and Amboy road, it is said, en deavors to prevent the Raritan road from carrying Government troops ; hence this action.

A GREAT BATTLE EXPECTED AT SEVIER- Longstreet Heavily Reinforced, The Retirement of the ninon Forces BURNING Or BlifirGES STORE CINCINNATI, Jan. 29.—The Knoxville efirret pendent of the Gazette says : • —. On last Friday our cavalry, wider General Stur gia, advanced in the direction of Bainbridge, forty miles from Knoxville. On Saturday morning we di ove the enemy's videttes out of the village. A pOrtion of our infantry, under Gen. Parks, also moved up, but on learning that the enemy was in full force beyond Bainbridge, they fell back to their former position. On Sunday morning, the enemy, seeing that they had drawn our cavalry as far as possible, made a desperate attack on our lines with Hood's and Bushrod Johnson's divisions, led by the Hampton cavalry. Observing their desperate determination, General Sturgis ordered Colonel McCook, commanding a di.. vision of Elliot's Cavalry, to charge on the enemy. This charge turned the fortunes of the day, which, up to that time, had been decidedly against us, Our total loss was about one hundred and fifty. On Suxidivy we fell back to Strawberry Plains, six miles from Knoxville, and, on the lath, General Sturgis fell back to Knoxville. On the same eve ning he crossed the Holston river, with a view of in tercepting the enemy at Sevierville. Gordon Granger's troops, on the 20th, were moving in the same direction, where 11 battle was pending. Great anxiety was felt at Knoxville for the result of this battle, and there was a kind of panic among the people. Gen. Foster was eonfldent of thwarting the enemy, although it is pretty certain that Longstreet has been heavily reinforced. Several of the prisoners taken belonged to reg ments that were fresh from Richmond. UNION ACCOUNTS PROP& KNOXVILLE. CINCINNATI, Jan. 29.—The Gazette's Knoxville correspondent, Writing on the 22d, says our entire force crossed the Holston at Strawberry Plains, and fell back to a new position. Our loss at Strawberry Plains was quite severe in stores. Several caissons were blown up. and about 200 Stragglers were picked up by the rebels. After crossing the Holston, Our troops burned the bridge and everything else likely to fall into the hands of the enemy, including a con siderable amount of new clothing. On the 22d the rebels and our sharpshooters were skirmishing across the river, six miles above Knox ville. The movements of the enemy are not clearly understood. It is supposed that Longstreet will besiege Knoxville again. Men have been put to work on the fortifications, and new batteries have been put in position. Longstreet has a strong and welldortifted position in Bull's Gap, whence he can throw his forces into the valley on either aide with great facility. Matters will not long remain in their present position. Governor Branklette Elected Senator—Ru Lot revnam, San. 29.—The Journal is advised that the Legislative elected Governor Bremlette United Staten Senator to. day, Major Bradley recently' fatally ..shot Colonel Vi• pout, both of the 7th Kentucky, In a personal alter. cation about a military return made by Vinont, Rumor states that a small party of rebels have captured Scottsville, Ky. Other reports say they were repulsed recently from Glasgow, and represent that the rebel pickets were at the former place. Rumors still prevail of preparations by the rebels for an extensive invasion of Kentucky. Military, men persistently deny that there is any foundation for such rumors, but the popular idea is that the rebels have no alternative but to starve or make the attempt for self-preservation. A Dispute Between Radicals. Boe.row, Jan. 29.—At an anniversary meeting held last evening, a spirited debate °canned be 'preen Wendell Phillips and Wrn t Lloyd Garrison, upon the course of the Administration.

Louisiana Polities - • Mr DSWES, of Massachneetts, called, up the report of the Committee on Elections, which concludes with a re solution that A. I'. Field is not entitled to a seat in this Rous Thirty Representative from the State of Lonieiana in the -eighth Conaresei Mr. Dawes stated the facts In the case, saying. in all that part of the district made np of the city el New Orleans, comprising almost the entire district, certainly mole than 'nineteen- twen tieths of the inhabitants. there was no opportunity given to vote at the election. The election, so far as New Or leans Was concerned. Was suppressed by orders ems; Datrog directly from the Military Governor of the State. This auppression was so effectual that not a vote was cast in the city, and the only constituency Mr. Yield has is the small pumper of votes already stated, from the very smell fraction of the district situated outside of the city limits. In no proper sense could the proceed ings be treated as an election. It was due to him. how ever, that the committee should have added the fast. that the testimony taken before them disclosed abundant evidence of hie . loyalty to the Government; and of his temperate and yudiMons efforts to restore the State to the discharge of its functions as a member of the Union. Re sides this, Louis ana has never been divided into dia- Wets in conformity with the laws of Congress. Mr. RElllistif. of New work, said the House would reereant to its duty if they did not express its con demnation of the military order suppfer sins the election, because the commander thought it was not in accord ance With law, and he introduced an amendment to the pending resolution, expressive of such condemnation. Mr. ehfLTHENS of Delaware, from .the Committee on Slecoions, said his objection to the admission of Kr. Field was that there was no civil government in Loui siana. A military government holds possession of the State.'and until a Government shall be established, re cognized by the Government of the United States, or until Congress shall pass a law under which an election con be held, he would not recognize any man as a Repre eentstive from that State. Mr. DAVIS, of Maryland, offered the following amend ment, which wee ruled out of order: Resolped, That there is no legal authority to hold any election in the State of Louisiana, and that any attempt to held en election. by any body of persons, lea usurpa tion of the sovereign authority of the United States, and, as such, was Properly forbidden by the military autho rities. Remarks of Nr. Field, of Louisiana. - - - . . Mr. FIELD, of Louisiana, spoke in his own behalf. raying that the Union men or Louisiana had, from the time the ordinance of secession was passed. maintained their rights as citizens of ne v er fo rfe ittates. Loyal th eir the Government. they haded any of their rights to Its protection. or merited a denial to represen tation in this Hence. He answered the objection that there was no organization of the State Government by sending up to the Clerk's table to be read an official list of the officers of the Slate. ilcludi mg General Shepley as military governor, judges of the courts. and collectors of taxes. He had fought against secession to the utmost. and to the danger 01 hie life. He was never anything but a, loyal man, and he would always stand by the Rag wherever it might wave. It appears that men who have been traitors and disloyitliste are in favor with some gen tlemen. They never were so with him. He knew, as far ae his experience and observation in Louisiana was concerned, that a certain man, who came there fresh from the battle-field, with his hands reeking with the blood of loy at men. 'pretended he Could make atonement for a series of guilty trattaactlene t and was taken into the church, and there Was more rejoicing over him than over ninety and nine true and loyal men. If the &thine of the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Stevens) was true, that Louisiana is not in the Union. they bad no right to bold elections. Mr. STEVENS inquired, if Louisiana is lathe Union.by what right was a military governor appointed ? Mr. FIELD would like the gentleman to answer his o question. . STEVENS said he meant no disrespect. Mr. FIELD did not se underetand end rammed his argument. in the course of which he said he had searched in vain to find the authority by which Go vernor Shepley struck from the Constitution of Louisi ana the most important clause in relation to the qualifi cation of voters The furtbei contideration of the subject was then post poned until Tuesday.

STOCKS AND REAL ESTATE, Tuesday neat. See Thomas S-_ Sone advertisement. THE CITY. WON ADDITIONAL OITT lame, BNB POI:MTH PADA AM FOR EAST TENNESSEE—SPERCICRS AT TER ACADEMY OF MUSIC . BY HON. N. G. TAY LOR AND GICN. E. W. GANTT, OF ARKANSAS.— Last evening the Academy of Music was largely filled by an attentive audience of , ladies and gentle men, to hear addresses in behalf of East Tennessee, by Ron. N. G. Taylor and Gen. E. W. Gantt. There was a large attendance of members of the Union League, who occupied seats upon the plattorat. Governor Pollock presided, and there was manifest ed the most intense interest to hear the canoe of the war discussed by the two Southern gentlemen who now occupy so large a share of the attention of the people of the loyal States. In introducing the orators of the evening, Mr. Pollock alluded to the motives of humanity which Lad brought together the numbers who filled the seats in the Academy. The war had shown many examples of self-sacrifice and earnest devotion. East Tennessee had pro eminently shone out in the great contest. [ilipplauee.] The champions of that suffering people were now present, and would speak for that loyal and patriotic section of the land. Phi, ladelphia had never heard the appeal of humanity or benevolence with indifference. This was a city as distinguished for its charity as for its loyalty, and would receive with open arms every lover of, his country, - whencesoever he might hail. Mr. Pollock would first Introduce Eon. N. G. Taylor, of East Tennessee, whose heart throbbed so earnestly in be half of the Union. [Applause.] He needed no eulo. glum. His name had always been associated with whatever was honorable in the history of his native State and country. Dir. Tay/or Watt received with much appleilme. Hencknowledged the honor proffered him in the cordial reception with which he wee greeted. He then remarked that lately a thought had occurred to him which had a hearing, the country.illustration. upon the present con dition of the What would be the nurveree w th on t a man ? What would be the solar system without a central point of attraction? Remove the sun, and all is night. Blot out the Federal centre of our Government, and all is chaos. [Applause.] The central force of the United States holds in --unison and harmony a perfect machine, that it may serve the end for which it was es tablished. .Remove a portion of our beautiful system, and the whole deteriorates, and loses its prestige. Oar Government was conceived in wisdom and fore sight: and bow glorious doss it appear to us, espe cially at a time like this. But hie object in being preterit here to-night was not to descant upon the beauties of our governmental system, nor to discuss the issues of Politics. lie begged God that the remote of Philadelphia would never witnese the scenes which his ayes had seen. and hie heart had melted over. Nor did he come thebeggar; for the State that Was too proud to bow to Cotton Ring, was too proud to ask for the alms of the North. [Applause.] He desired merely to say a word in praise of the devotion of the people of Tennessee to the Government of our common fa thers. East Tennessee had been execrated byr the Southern Sre.eaters. because she Confederacy. ached hereelr to the fortunes of the rebel She nobly resisted the blandishments of Jeff Davis, and to day East Tennessee is a ruined country In 1812 Tennessee had nobly stood by the Union, and her illus trious Jackson led onr forces onward. to victory and glory. In the Mexican war the people of Tennas tee were equally enthusiastic in strengthening the power or the Government In the field and in the Cabi 'set. in the - inselly and at the bar, and everywhere and al' r ail times, the heart of Beet Tennessee be st yesterday:he Union. This sentiment was not oneof it Wes a heritage of the blood. de sceedieg from sire to son. [Applause]. Witness the history of the east three years ; she had declared many times': before the rebellion took shape, that she would not desert the flag of the Union. On the question of separation or no separation, East Tennessee took a firm and emphatic stand. Sho breasted the storm, and stood erect. like her own everlasting bills. unwavering and majestic. ehe voted against separation by an over whelming majcrity. tAaplatse. By and bye, the re lebel o. Tennesseed a conscript bill. and all the young en of Were obliged to place themselves on the enrolment lists. Then commenced the exodus of the youth and chivalry of the State. towards freedom and safety. The speaker described the reign s.f terror which followed, and - showed how deeply his heart sympathized with the suffering of hie fellow-citlzene his own neighborhood. Hut drede ofunwilling men were forced into the rebel ranks, and had it not been for Burnelde's army of deliverance, there would not have been a man left in the loyal homes of East Tennessee. Now, we witness the gratifying fact that East Tennessee has furnished to the Federal armies more men in propor tion to population than any. other State of the IDfnion Tennessee. for her fidelity to the Union. had Buffered everything but dishonor, 'Privations, chains, and gib bets .had been her lot, and desolation and ruin mark her hitherto fertile fields. Though her limbs are weak with exhaustion. her heart Is still big with de votion to the country of our fathers Borne down under a reign of terror, blacker than the reign of a Robespierre, her loyalty is still burning brightly! Thank God Tellaessee was almost free. The grand old banner floats once more proudly, grandly, gloriously, triemphantly ov her mot main homes, and them may it float forever. [Applause. ] It is for the prosperous People of the North to turn their charitable eye to the down-trodden populace of . rennessee. Here everything is happy. Everybody seems content Why is it so? Why should Tennessee almost die, while you here are living in luxury and else? While Ireland was famish ing for want of the necessaries of llfe, a voice of good cheer cane to her from our happy land. America then sent forth abundantly out of her own ab evidence. The gifts were freely given, though the recipients were the subjects of another country. Now the wail of 'sorrow comes up to American's from fellow. americans. God Ease East Tennereee! She is in ruins, but she is grand oven in her ruins, for already she has won a Place in history that bas no parallel. [Applause.] The speaker was proud of East Tennessee, and would rather be a subject to her, ruined though she be. than be robed in the raiment , : of a prince: who had traitor' marked upon his brow. ['Renewed applause.] At, to the queation of slavery, the speaker maid that the credit for its death did not Wong to the Abolitionists; that elaPerY Met its death at the hands of its epeeist custodians. Mr. Taylor retired amid much applause. Mr. Pollock then stated that an organization had been formed for the purpose of assisting the people of Rut Tenesseee in their (fibrin to resaln their former position as citizens ct our common country.

He bad been four years ago a Breckintidge Democrat. He steed on that platform, but could not stand on it now, for it bad vanished. He remembered to have listened to Colonel Taylor in favor of the Union. and as a Erects inridge elector, the speaker was compelled to answer that speech. He did answer it. To-night he hid the manhood to say to Colonel Taylor. °` Yon were right, and t was wrong" [Great applause ] He hardly kreW what to speak about to an attlieuce of Philadelphians. He would put forth Ms idea aaeo the cause of the war, He hoped he would offend nobody by asserting what he thought was the canes of the war. When this Government wee framed there was no more perfect piece of mechanism than it showed itself to be. There was no cause why this Government should prove a failure. But the fathers of the Constitution feared there was an element of weakness in our volemal body. It Was negro slavery. The Southern men blame the Abo litionists for agitatlngthe &every question. :Vow if there were no slavery there could have been.llo t,bolltionists. blue muse. 3 Time after time it was sotteht to cover up the great edre littler which our nation was laboring. At every Presidential election the question of slavery turned up. Mr. Lincoln said the country could not be half elave and half free, and we of the South wanted it all slave. We knew, with Mr. Lincoln. that there could net be a permanent peace between slavery and freedom. The speaker felt that the only was' to protect alayerY was to go out of the Union, and he Went out of the Union. He made his fight and got wbipped. [Laughter.] He was a living specimen of what is meant by the sub jugation of the Smith, and could the miserably-clad half-fed soldiers of Jeff Davis he subjugated in the same way, they would thank their lucky stare for it. Ha was no politician. and wanted no office. All he desired was to see Arkansas subjugated back again into the Union. and under the old flag. Negro slavery was the canes of the war. slavery made Abolitionists; slavery raised tee tariff issue; slavery caused the less of power to the South: and slavery being the cause of the war, it should be satire's unroottd. E anplanee.l Re was an Aboli tionist himself when he was a Secessionist. The South ern people bed much reaeon to wish it destroyed. for it was the cause of all their woes.' Be had been told that there were political dissensions In the North. Garrett Davis says there are but two parties in the country. con. etc naives andel estructives. Who are thedettrnctives T The men who would bow down to slavery; quibble about coastitational points, while their country is going to ruin. 'The conetrurtives are those who would let slavery go down, that the flag of the country might go up. [applause, ] Save the country, all who love it. and the Consutuiton will save itself. The only way to TM 1101d the Constitution is to sustain the soldiers in the field. Leave the care of the Constitution to the gal -1 lant males of the Union. This quibbling about the Constitution prolongs the war. He spoke. he said, with Warmth on this subject, because he loved his sourtry and was anxious for a termination of the war When the war commenced , the South knew her strength to be in negro slavery. Samson's strength lag in his locks, and oar war lead not progreeeed long 'till the eoutbern lecke were cut off. We bad never divided the Government of our fathers; and we found, to ourgrief. that in our anxiety for the safety of slavery we had found -a Government on no principles of patriotts m.merely as a matter of dollars and cents. We thought you. wanted to drive slavery in a corner where it would sting itself to death, and we wanted. 'to protect it. We thought we would have a Government all to ourselves. where this in titution would not he interfered with, and we hoped still farther to strengthen it in the course of time. Bute instead of that, came Lincoln's Proclamation of Braancipatiom [Prolonged applause.] I don't think the vast importance of that measure was frilly under• stood, either by the people or the President himself. when it wee issued. We of the South certainty did not fully or neatly appreciate it But first camellia notice, and at this we laughed. What coed we bee Teleeeen or his Government to do with nOlLii - beeendiiiilels no ticesl.'• Let him try it on. and see what good it will do Men_ Sure enougn. the tamers Emancipation Precis- Maisie was issued. But still we laughed. What does his Proclamation amount to? said we. Oar Govern ment doesn't ratify it; it doesn't affect our Consti tution. But armies had been raised. and under the old flag the legions of the North and West bore down upon us, and they brought with them—the Peoelonsation! [ehears.] We called them Lincoln's horded: but with their appearance the manacles fell from off our slaves. and they were free. We in the in. Melo' saw this result a' one the rivers, and we pitied oar frimieo who were thus feeling the effects of the preetemate,e; !mit we soon felt the same trouble, and we laughed no morsteen that subject, The speaker concieded by expressing a fervent hope that the war would soon !close, and with it the destruc tion of slavery and the tOtinatient restoration of the Union.
