Resofued. That we recognize the hand OF the
Most High God, the King of Kings and Lord

loads of parched coffee passed through en-
route for the Gap. Ia addition to this, arms
in abundance have been transported to that

Union men of this State for the Tories of
East Tennessee. | write this note in order to
enable you to give information of the pro-

quantity of champagne, brought, doubtless,

for A. S COLYAR, Esq, and remarks
Mr. CoI.YAR is induced to make these ap-
pointments. as he writes us, because he is sat
isfied that the people of East Tennessee are
in danger of Civil War. That he is honest in
his convictions, and that he is prompted by
the very best of motives, we have no doubt.
But we do not see that there is any Imminent
danger of civil war. This evil is not close
at hand, unless it is forced upon Us by the
dominant party. The Union men will not at
tack any one They only ask to be let alone.
They claim the right of free speech and free
thought, and if left alone in the enjoyment OF
these constitutional right, they will go quiet
ly along, and disturb no man. II they are
to be forced against their will and convictions
of right, TO bow to the tyranny of the South
ern Coniederacy, forced 10 go and light
against the Government they are satisfied
with, and denied the freedom of speech, and
the liberty of conscience-there will be civil
war-a dreadful, bloody, and protracted war,
and the sooner il comes the better!

nessee by yielding TO the above demands,
