which ever you please: you pays your money

This extraordinary creature is an animal

species: be is of a reserved and silent DISPOSE

mouth and show his teeth. The remarkable
specimen of natural history afore you is

animosity he is said to display against the

-o.,.,,,,on state Convention.

We give this morning the proceedings of
the Opposition State Convention which met
in this. city yesterday, and to that account we
refer our readers for the declaration Of princi-
pies. The doctrines therein contained are
such as to commend themselves to the entire
country, as being the only ones on which the
country can rely for safe conduct through
the difficulties and dangers. which now sur
round it, That they will be approved by the
Opposition of Tennessee admits of no doubt.
The character of the Convention was such
as to crafty to most exacting wish. 1t was
upquestionably the largest, ablest. and most
earnest that has assembled in this State for
years. We have never witnessed an assem-
blage who manifested q more enthusiastic
determination to fight the battles OF the
country and patriotism. Let but the same
spirit which prevailed be diffused through
out the State, and in August We shall witness
a revolution in political affairs in Tennessee,
that will astOnish and overwhelm the demo-
cratic party.

NIGHT SESSION.

The Convention assembled according to adj
journment, at halfpast seven O'Clock. DR..
RICHARDSON moved an adjournment sine die.
the Convention having concluded the business
for which it had assembled, which motion
prevailed There was large audience pres
ent, filling the Hall and Galleries of the
House of Representatives.
Hon. ID. b. NABERs late a member of Con-
gress from Mississippi, now of Memphis. de-
livered speech of much pith aud substance;
after which JoHN BELL was called to the
stand amidst prolonged applause. He spoke
for two hours and twenty minutes, in which
was advanced an amount of philosophic anG
statesmanlike argument. which we have at no
time heard surpassed. On those who heard
attantively, this speech made profound i'm
preston. We regret that the lateness of the
hour prevents us from giving a synopsis of
this mastery effort of the mature and pro-
found Tennessee statesman.
CCl. MULLENs, of Bedford, at the conclusion
of Mr.. BELLS speech, was called for, and as
We left at III O'Clock he was speaking amidst
oft-repeated bursts ofapplause.

Changes i'm the Army.

The report of the army board that recent
ly considered que tions prOpounded by the
War Department with the view TO obtain in
formation to be made the basis of changes to
decrease the cost of the army to the National
Treasury, has been promulged.
1t holds that neither the present army, nor
the present ratio of commissioned officers,
can be prudently decreased.
1t holds that the only way of decreasing
the expense of army transportation will be
the abandonment of the small-p post system of
in the Indian country, and the concentra-
ton of the troops in larger bodies at large
posts on or near navigation, and where sub
sistence, forage, &c, is to be had at reason
able rates.
1t recommends the abandonment of the
small-post system, the concentration of the
army at larger posts near the settled frontier,
and movements of detnchmeuts from such
posts into the Indian country as required.
1t also recommends the abandonment of
the contract system of purchasing army hor-
SEES the sale of all military posts not now
required for military occupancy. and the con-
centration OF all the manufacturing and re-
pairing work of the service at two or three
arsenals, &c, instead of keeping up the Gov
ernment's present numerous establishments
of the kind.
Such are all the changes it proposes.
