The Bank OF Teune.see.

The editorial in the Patriot of yesterday
has awakened a general desire to see the
article of the Union and Ameyican that
called it forth For the qualification of
the public, we repubIish it
From tie Union and American Of Jan. 18Th 1856:
We are happy to state upon information that
the PARENT BOARD of the BANK OF TENNESSEE
HERE UPON THURSDAY LAST IN TIE SELECTION
OF THE BOARD FOR THE BRANCHES, DETERMINED
THAT THEY WOULD NOT APPOINT ANY Know
NOTHING TO THE POSITION OF A DIRECTOR
THUS PLAoIzG THEIR OPINIONS OF THE DARK
LANTERNITRs BEYOND DISPUTE. But we regret
10 add that in the appointment of a Director
at Columbia, the board here not only OiOLated
their 0UR RULE, but acted in utter disregard
of the wishes Of the people of Maury county.
We are at loss to account for this departure
from their own determination. Oar friends in
Maury had a severe trial last summer, and we
are told that the Know Nothings, when they
thought they had the power, very freely an
nounced their purpOses-as their obligations
compel them-tO exclude all Democrats from
Office, and we must be permitted to say that
we sympathise with them in their denuncia-
tions OF this outrage upon their wishes and
feelings. And to make the outrage worse or
as 1t was intended, the Directory are so ar
ranged that this X. n. Director must of neces-
sity be President Our friends in Maury are
poorly rewarded by this aid and comfort given
to the Proseriptionists by those who enjoy the
power to smite them only through their efforts
We submit that such action meets with no eX-
preston of approval from Democrats and

Congressional Scenes.

In the House Of Representatives on the
18th inst, after Mr.. Richardson had res
ponded to Genl Zollicoifer's interrogato-
ries the General took the floor with a
view to state the reasons why he had pro-
pounded them. He could, under the rule
of the House, speak but ten minutes but
so fearful were friends of Richardson of
the effect of what he might say-so uneasy
had they become, under the exposure of
their candidates anti-southern record -
they went to work to prevent the General
from making use of his ten minutes. First
Mr.. Clingman interrupted him, then Mr.
Rust after him Mr. CIingman again; and
subsequently, Mr.. Orr, Mr.. Stephens, and
others. Finally, our representative was
prevailed upon to postpone what he had to
say.
Again, on the 10th, resolution to APP
point Mr.. Campbell, of Ohio, Speaker, be-
ing under consideration, the following
spirited episode took place
Mr.. Zollicofer I have not a word TO say in
explanation of the vote | shall give upon this reso-
luton, but desire to say something in reply 10
the remarks made some minutes since by the hon
orable and eloquent gentlemen from Georgia Mr..
stephens.
As that gentleman has chosen to express his
qualification upon the correction Of the position
occupied by the distinguished gentleman from
Pennsylvania, FMF. Fuller, within the last few
weeks-though should differ in opinion with
the gentleman from Georgia in respect to the fact
OF that correction having been made-I beg leave
in return 10 express my equal qualification that the
distinguished gentlemen from Illinois, Mr.. Rich
ardson, who, in 1850, stood out as the advocate
Of the eonstitutionality of the Wmot provisO, and
rot only that sir, but pledged himself II it were
necessary, with regard 10 the southern territory
acquired from Mexico, TO vote for the Wilmot prof

Correspondence Of the Baltimore American Democra

WASHINGTON. Jan. 18. II

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18, 1856.
1t is a pity that no successful means have
ever been adopted TO report things just as they
happen. Never, perhaps, in the history of le-
gislaton has shy man been so completely cor
nered as was Mr.. Stephens, of Georgia, yester-
day, by that prince of catechists, Mr.. Zollicof-
fer, of Tenn. To most persons he appeared
on both sides of the Wilmot Proviso, and also
of the Missouri Compromise; yet his speech is
reserved for revision, in which there will pro.
baby be found more of the ingenuity with
which he slipped out of the moose.
The debate referred to above has not
yet appeared in the Congressional Globe,
having been withheld by the Georgia ex-
pert for dressing up"

Relations with Great Brifain-The Con.
teat for Speaker.

Relations Win Great Brtta1n-I ne COM
test for Speaker.
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore San, in his letter of the 18th
inst, intimates that the controversy be-
tween the United S ates and Great Britain
is approaching crisis. In regard TO meas
ures under consideration by the Cabinet, he
says:
"The proposition before the Cabinet is TO
withdraw our Minister from England, and not
send another until the British Government
shall comply with ou- demand for redress and
satisfaction. There is little doubt that this
course was determined upon last evening.
The situation Of the House. and its utter
abandonment of its constitutional functions,
UiU render necessary and afford an apology for
the assumption and exercise By the ErecutiCe Of
such p0acers as the Constitution may confer upon
him, under the most literal construction Of that
Instrument Therefore, if | am nos mistaken,
the President is about to take some steps, indie
pendently of the suspension of diplomatic in
tercOurse with England, which may precipi-
tate an issue between this country and Great
Britain"
The National LnteLligencer evidently thinks
the statement relative to the action of
the Cabinet is not unfounded If it be
true, and the Exercise and assumption by
the executive" Of unusual powers, is done
because the House is not organized, what
terms of condemnation are too strong to be
used towards the Administration and its
friends in the House for continuing the
hopeless contest for Speaker in which they
have been engaged? The people have lost
all sense of justice and propriety if they do
not rebuke the Administration for the "sit-
uation of the House." which is the result of
the overweening desire of the leaders at
Washington to drive National Americans
from their national candidate and insure
the election of an agitator, that the party
may thrive and prosper The President
and MS Cabinet have but to request it, and
an organization Of the House can be eff
fected in an hour.

Ba- "Zollicoffer rather crowded Ste
phens in debate to-day" says Greeley in his
letter of the 18th inst, from Washington
to the Tribune. We are pleased to note
that our representative is making himself
felt in this important epoch Of the legisla-
tive affairs of the country. Mr.. Stephens
is one of the ablest men in the Union, an
experienced, adrOit tactician but he has
found his match in the cool, deliberate de-
termination, and patient political researches
Of the General, who seldom strikes a blow
without first surrounding his position with
impregnable Notifications. The American
Party of Tennessee are greatly indebted
to him for his services in the canvass last
summer and the American Party of the
Nation are still more indebted to him for
his exertions to maintain the integrity of
the Party, since the opening of Congress
