WHEREAS by the act of the General ASSEM-
bly, passed May 9th, 1861. it ls made the duty
of the Governor "to raise, organize, and
equip, provisional force of 6fty-dve thou
sand volunteers, twenty-five thousand of
whom, or any less number which the wants
of the service may demand, shall be fitted for
the field at the earliest practicable moment,
and the remainder of which shall be held in
reserve, ready to march at short notice. and
whereas the provisional force which has been
organized, armed, equipped, and fitted for the
field has been transferred to the service of the
Confederate States; and whereas, the Presi-
dent and Congress of the United States have
been deaf to the promptings of justice, and
Notwithstanding their troops have been in
gioriously defeated in their plans of subjuga-
ton by the intrepid valor Of the South, have
appropriated immense amounts of money and
are bringing into the field large additional
ornaments to effect their purpose of over
riding and trampling upon the rights and
liberties of our people;
Now therefore, /, Isham G. Harris, Cover
nor of the State of Tennessee, by virtue of
the authority in me vested by the above re-
cited act. do issue this, my proclamation, ap-
pealiug to the patriotism of the people, to
raise, organize, and thoroughly prepare a re-
serve force of thirty thousand volunteers, to
be styled "the Reserve Corps of Tennessee"
which shall be organized into companies, bat
talions. regiments and brigades, and muster
ed into the service of the State and held
ready to march at short notice, but not put
on pay or subsistence, or withdrawn from
their ordinary vocations until the necessity
for actual service shall arise, when they will
be ordered out on duty and placed on the
same footing OF the other twelve months vol
unteers. Officers will be appointed to visit
the respective counties, in which companies
may be raised and organized, and muster
them into service, after they shall have re-
ported themselves by companies to the Ad-
jutant-General. When thus mustered into
service they will be required to drill by COM
panies at least once week, and by Battal-
ions and Regiments as often as once month,
and when on duty, will be subject to the
rules and articles of war.

Mr. Nelson declared his purpose - acquiesce
in the attitude and the political relations
which Tennessee has chosen for herself and
the duties consequent thereupon. He ac-
knowledges allegiance both to Tennessee and
TO the Confederate Government. His high
character gives abundant assurance that his
engagements and declarations will be honor
ably complied with. Our government, there
fore, could have no reason for his detention,
and we are pleased that the Administration
has ordered his discharge. We trust the gen.

triotism of Mr.. Nelson will have happy eff
feet in promoting the quiet or the people of
East Tennessee. Mr.. Nelson viii probably

Me.srs Editors: AS a woman true to the
South, whose heart beats in unison with those
of our patriotic sons now struggling for our
affairs and our firesides, and as one whose
sympathies and prayers are enlisted in behalf
of a free people, now threatened with subju-
CATION at the hands of corrupt functiOnaries,
and mercenary outlaws, am prompted to
write the following lines, however embarras-
sing and unpleasant it may be, to thus bring
my name before the public. | am DESTROYS
that my indignation and contempt should
be known for the course of Charles II. Fos-
ter, formerly of Orono. Maine, late of this
place, and now of Washington city.
All persons know, who have been acquaint-
ed with Mr.. Foster for the last six months,
that he left this place in the month of Feb
ruary last, for his desk in the POstOffice De-
partment at Washington "a position obtain
ed under Mr. Buchanan's administration, and
remained there until the Sd of May last, when
he returned TO this place. His presence IN
this town caused great excitement immedi-
ately upon the fact OF his arrival being known,
as his conduct in great measure, am
frank to confess. reasonably justified. He
was accused of being untrue TO the SOuth-a
Black Republican-and some went so far as
TO believe him spy sent out directly from
under the roof Of the White House. TO all of
these accusations he plead not guilty, and
went so far as to say to me that he intended
to return to Washington and PrOUe hi'nseg
Southern nan.
Mr. Foster finally did return, and to my
great surprise, / have found that the man
upon whom / had centered my whole alice
tions, and who had won the confidence of my
heart, has proved himself recreaDt to his
pledges, false to his VOWS. and Indifferent as
to the life or death of his own wife and child.
From the Sunday Morning Chronicle, publish
ed in Washington, l learn that on the Occa-
sion of a serenade given to Mr.. Foster soon
after his arrival, he said in addition to other
Odious things, that he intended to head q
Brigade as soon as arrangements could be
made and come to n. Carolina to relieve the
oppressed friends of the Union living among
US. The import of which language is, that
he would see my own people exterminated,
our owl homes outraged, desecrated and de-
stroyed. Without reference to anything else
that this man has said or done, which has
proved him traitor to his adopted home, /
conclude this card by saying. that as painful
as separation would be under other circum-
stances, ii is with frmness and determination
that now declare every tie SeUeTed which has
heretofore bound me to Charles ii. Foster,
and from this day consider the relation for
merly existing between US as husband and
wife, virtually dissolved forever.
shall no longer bear his name, and will
take advantage of the earliest opportunity
offered by our laws of having it legally chan
ged to what now sign it.

CHALLENGE FOR A NAVAL ENGAGEMENT
We learn that on Saturday last the Confed-
crate war steamship Patrick Henry, formerly
the Yorktown. came down James river to
within mile of Newport News, and offered
challenge for combat to large United
States frigate lying off that point. So great
was the agitation and confusion on board the
irigste, it is said. that they did not take time
to turl their awnings, but pulled them right
down and beat to quarters The Patrick
Henry stopped of at her position, with her
ports open ready for combat, if she could
induce the Yankee to come from under the
guns of the shore-battery; but the latter pos
itively declined the invitation, and stuck to
her safe place 1t is believed by those who
witnessed the operation that the Patrick
Henry would have ventured battle regardless
OF the shore battery, but for the presence of
two or three Federal gun-boats.-Nogfolk Day
