psa If the balance of the State is like this city
and county, Tennessee is thoroughly aud unalter-
ably opposed to the unholy designs of the secess-
ionists and disuuionists We have heard the pres
ent posture of affairs talked about good deal, and
by all classes of men, and yet we have to find the
first man who is in favor of immediate session
And yet our people not for the Union at the
sacrifice of Southern rights, or Southern HONOR
They are for IL though long asst can be preserv-
ed with those considerations intact, andsre oppos-
ed 70 sacrifccng it on the altar of South Carolina
within. They advocate a spirit OF liberation and
forbearauce, on the part of the Southern States
until a resort can be had to every possible honor
able means of saving the Union, when, If all such
resources fail when it shall be made apparent that
we cannot obtain our rights in the Union, why
then they say, let all go out together. Such
course as this however it might result, would car
ry with 1t the respect of the civilized world but
the mad precipitation that marks the action of the
Cotton States" never can.
This Union, however lightly others may esteem
It, is in the estimation Of every right-minded pa
triot worth effort to preserve it. The noblest
patriotism the world ever knew conceived it, and
ii was brought forth and ba6gAed in patriots blood
The sufferings of our Revolutionary siTes through
the long winter nights anda.Srefess days, at Valley
Forge, were alone, enough even were there no 9th
Ut memories of what our liberties cost, to bid US
pause in the work Of trying the very temple Of
those liberties. But an hundred memories else
than that appeal to us 10 preserve it; and eallous
must be the heart that can resist their peadngs
The course that we have above indicated, as the
one that ought to be pursued embodies our own
sentiments aud our position, and we think they can
hardly bs misunderstood, even by the dullest. We
do not by any means, hold that the South have no
cause Of complaint against the North. We know
that they have long BONE with acts of aggression
and injustice from their Northern ncighbors, that
have for years past been cause Of serious apprc-
hension to every lover of his country 1t ia not
necessary to rccapitulate here the wrongs and in
Justice done to the South for they are known to
every man of ordinary intelligence. But the Qucs-
ton is may not these grievances be removed 1t
is true that the Republican party have so far man
Tested very stubborn spirit but still that is no
sufficient reason for pluuging the nation into the
horrors of dissolution and civil No. far from
IL 1t is only after trcry possible means of prescr.
wing our Union has been tried, and fIjiei-only
after the South has done all that they possibly can
to maintain our national brotherhood and failed,
that resort ought to be had to a dissolution; and
pasicd, We say, be the arm that is lifted against
that Cnlou until then

pm We have omitted heretof

gs5l-- We have omitted heretofore to notice re-
cent change in the pioneer Clothing establishment
of our city, though it has been announced in our
columns. The firm Of McCulloch
Pittman expired on the first of this month, and a
new firm under the name of McCulloch, Pittman
Il Co.. was formed to succeed it. This new firm
is composed Of Mr.. Thos. McCulloch and Mr.. Pitt
man. the members of the old one, and Mr. r. f.
McCulloch, son Of the senior member. We con.
gatulatc Emmett on his accession to the ranks OF
our solid business men, OF this loug-established
house we need hardly to say word more. Itsrepu.
aton as iirst-cass house in all respects is fully
established and widely known. People about here
who want anything in the way of clothing, know
that they can find it ther' of the best quality and
at fair prices,

Eey" Our ncighbor of the Jc6ersoniaH is fast
working himself out of the disuniou mcetin. He

premc organ Of his quondina party, in this State
the Union and american, and he writes a long ar
ticle, twice a week, in favor Of Andrew (Jdckson)
Johnson's big speech. In a word our neghhor is a
Union man, "up to the hub We greatly admire
his patriotism, but can't say much for his Judge
ment. We very much fear that his devotion to his
country will cost him his epaulettcs and his spurs
If lie has ever been provided with those muni-
tons Of WARRIOR our doughty Governor will hard
~ retain upon his staff man devoted to "his ac-
cursed Union" We hope however that, if oul
neghbor gets turned out Of the State military, hi

Bgay" A system Of petty thieying seems to have
grown quite common about here of late Stealing
umbrellas from the doors of private houses, is the
most frequent achievement. One of these "sneak-
thieves entered the hall of a house on Madison
street. few days ago. while the family were at
supper and stole hat from the rack. The hat, too,
belonged to prcachcr--one he had bought that
dayl There were other articles of some value on
the rack but the thief, it is thought, was alarmed
by the barking of q dog, and did not stop to make
sclectionsl Another one of these enterprisng che
valerS d industrie went to the Female Academy, q
tious possession of fine overcoat that had been
left there by one of our city physicians, while he
was exercising his healing art in the house. In
the pocket Of the coat were notes to the value OF
$4,000, but, fortunately, Mr. Rogue can make no
use of them, and the owner can have them rcpla-
ced. (Rather wonderful circumstance for Doc
tor to have anything like two thousand dollars about
his clothes, but be ddD
These are a few specimens of this low, undigni-

and the like, are decided weakness with these sly

IL MEMORY OF LITTLE CLARK.

There is an hour when Memory opes
Her urn of relics sacred hour
When every cord is touched and thrills
To gentle words or scent Of flower.
At twilight oft a zephyr tone
Seems whispering thro' the song-bird's grot,
Seems whis Bring for the loved and gone
"Forget me not forget Inc not
Who hath not loved in summer time
Some flower of rare and fragrant scent q?
Just bloomed, yet with its radiant hues
Found autumn tints already blent
Who hath no store of gathered leaves
That bring from the past some sweet refrain,
That whisper as we breathe their sweets
"Well bloom again, well bloom again
Who bath not loved some gentle child,
A child close 'twining bout the heart
Yet like SCARED rose and stem we see
The child and parent too must part.
Hist when disease has borne him down,
Death placed signet on his broY--
Then with radiant smile be sara
aim better now, I'm better now
Loved father, mother, store these words,
Those angel words in Memory urn
Unmurmuriug, softly close the lid,
And let thy cheerful smiles return,
Oh look not sadly on the past,
Its vista echoes with a strain,
Borne to the heart on perfumed words,
"Well live again, we'll live again
