Doiuted Secretary and at the same time, on notion
Gov. FoorE, GEORGE Nancy Esq. and EUG. UNDER
WOOD were appointed Committee to wait upon
Gov. HARaIs and conduct him to the Speakers
Chair. Gov HARMS was received with tumult of
applause, such as seldom, if ever before arose In

proceed. he alluded to his having Just read the
dispatch Of Gen. CAMERON, Secretary of War said
that he while responding as became his official Do
sition, would before he laid him down to sleep.
respond in such tones could not be misunderstood
that not single man should be furnished from
Tennessee rather than sign such an order he
would cut his right arm from his body-rather
than utter it he would tear his tongue from its
root-(at this utterance of sentiment for several
minutes cheer after cheer could only be heard in
the Hall he was required to go over and repeat
the same sentiment) he would go if necessary to
the War-and shoulder his musket and do battle as
common soldier in the cause of the common
South If to say this was treason, then before God
he was traitor.
Mr.. BAILEY, of Montgomery, late Union man,
and elected member of the Convention from that
county, followed in happy speech. He was sue
ceeded by 10. C. GUILD, Esq, JAMES E. RAINS, Esq,
late strong Union man. Gen. w. A. QUARLEs fol-

cognzed the independence of the Confederate States.
which was received with great and prolonged
cheers.

ton as follows:
To His ESceaency IsHAw G. HARRIS Governor OF
Tennessee:
Call made on yeu by to-night's mail for two re0i-
rnents OF militia for immediate service.
SIMON CAMERON

Gov. HARRIS, soon after his arrival in the ci,v
yesterday evening responded in the following noble
manner, by telegraph:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, !
Nashville, Tenn, April 1851. I
Hon. Simon CaR,erOE Secretary of War,
Washington, D. c..
ssR: Your dispatch of the 18th inst informing
me thst Tennessee is called upon for two regiments
OF militia for immediate service, is received.
Tennessee will not furnish a single man for pur-

SertIment i'm nIi.sI,.ippI.

One of the editors of the UNION AND AMERICAN has
just returned from visit to Capital of the State
Mississippi. His observation there satisfies him
that Mississippi occupies the proud and happy posi-.
ton of thoroughly united people. Every man is
for his country. The most striking feature of the
grand revolution that now prevails is the absence
Of undue excitement the fearless determination to
sustain and maintain the rights of the South at eve
ry hazard and the perfect confidence that exists Of
the successful termination of the conflict.
From the Governor to the hunblest individual in
the community there is but one spirit animating
the entire people and that for every Mssissippan
to do his part in the great physical contest now q
Nand
The Governor is the only gentleman in the State
who has the least annoyance in discharging his du-
ty, and this arises simply from his inability to &C.
cept all the tenders of volunteers who offer their
services for the defence of the Confederate States
Conscious, however, of honest, faithful and en-
ergetic discharge of duty, he reposes in the convic
ton thstthe boys" will probably all have chance
before long to display their devotion to their coun
try. No State in the Southern Confederacy occu-
pies prouder or higher position-none is better
prepared for every emergency, and none can boast
of more daring and chivalrous sons. When the
harvest of death shall come Mississippi will be in
the front rank of the reapers
With regard to Tennessee, we heard a universal
expression of confidence that when the conflict
should come the " Volunteer State" would be uni
ted as man. in defence of the South, and that her
gallant sons would pour their hosts, like ava
lanche to crush out the invader who would desc
crate the soil of the South with a hostile tread.
One distinguished gentleman offered a wager
that Tennessee and Kentucky would willingly take
q contract TO do all the fighting, and that they
would do it well. Another said that the first gun
would bring her gallant sons TO the side Of the
South. And yet another predicted that Tennessee
could bring more volunteers into the field and in
quicker time than any other State. Such is the
high confidence resposed in the patriotism and
chivary of Tennesseans by gallant sister State
of Mississippi, whose sons wen Through the baptism
of blood with us on the fields Of Mexico. This
idence is not misplaced, as is demonstrated by the
unanimity with which Tennssseans are now
rallying TO the glorious cause of the South.

Fire in the Mountains.

Our accounts from Eas: Tennessee are such as
to leave not the shadow of doubt, that the revou
tion there is almost complete it is here. From
all parts of the State indeed our information author
izss us to say that there is but feeling and
party-the Southern Independence party.
LINCOLN has called upon the Governor OF Tennes-
see for two regiments. to help subugate the South
Before our twenty days of grace Is out he will not
be able with a search warrant to find the number
of two regiments of private citizens even, who
would vote TO sustain his government, if it were to
save him and his cabinet, and the whole Black Re-
publican crew from perditiOn, except from purely
christian motives.

Military Organization.

The military ardor of cur people is thoroughly
aroused. In every part of the State companies are
being rapidly organized and before the expiration
of the toenty days of grace allowed to us by the old
tyrant, we shall have TWENTY THOUSAND VOLUNTEERS
IN THE FIELD who will be able to knock the bulls

No Neutrality,

Neither States nor individuals can be neutral in
this contest between Abolitionism and Southern
rights. The war has begun. Argument has been
exhausted. It is man to man, and steel to steel
Let no true talk of neutrality. Either he must
support LINCOLN in his usurpation and war upon
the South, or he must resist him with arms The
Southern man that declares himself neutral, when
LINCOLN is invading the South and deseeratins its
soil with hostile tread intends to betray the South
to Black Republican power. He that is not for US
is against US. BE that declares for neutrality now
is our worst foe. In the language of PATRICK HEN
RY, 1--WE must fight, repeat it, sir, must fight.
