TENNESSEE ENrERrRizE.--A drove Of be-
tween seven and eight hundred T'urk'es passed
through our town on yesterday for Mississippi
They were driven from Robertson county, and APP
pear TO trevel much faster than hogs; and will
not like them, tire, or give out by the way. These
IRE the first Turkies we have ever seen sci out
for such distant market on foot, but we have no
doubt from the cheapness Of the conveyance, and
the npidty with which they travel, the enterprise
will turn out to be as profitable as it is novel

One of t,co Results. Either the Wings have
i killed themselves in the Union, by uniting with
the abolhionists, or they have ensured dissolu

their party in the entire South. This great ques
lion is there paramount to all others, and they
will unite to a man against a party which form,
such protilgate alliances. In taking this stanC
against an incendiary faction, Mr. Van Buren, los
Inc abolition vote--lost his native State--but ht
has secured his re election, and in all probability
mas saved the Union. It hard to believe tina
The whole North will sustain the wings and aboIi
uonlsts IN their desperate assault upon the unoI
