The second clause Section 10. Article 3. OF
the Constitution of Tennessee is in the words
following:
"No Senator or Representative shall, dur
ing the time for which he was elected, be eli
gible to any office or place of trust. the APP
pointment TO which is vested in the Executive
or General Assembly, except to the office OF
trustee to literary institution"
In the face of this, Governor Harris APP
points five members of the General Assembly
Messrs- WhitthOrne, Gillespie. Porter, Pickett
and Bickn' II, to important and lucrative po-
siiiOns in the Provisional Army OF Tennessee.
-NaShciILe Banner.
: Does the Banner remember that some years
ago. one John Bell was elected member OF
the Lower House of the General Assembly,
and that ''durng The term for lciich he .Cas elect
ed'' be ran for aud was elected United States
Senator, which is an office .'or place of trust
the appointment to which is vested 10 the Ex-
ecntive or the General Assembly," and that
the Banner defended the whole business as
eminently constitutional aud proper. Surely
if it was right 10 elect a member CT rs Gen
eral Assembly TO the United States Senate, it
cannot be very wrong to appoint members to
risk their lives for the safety of their country.

"HOME GUARDs."-At Bulls Gap, in
Greene county. the Union men have formed
a company of "HOme Guards as We are
told, numbering about 200 men. and have had
two several meetings to drill them. We are
pleased to find ihat.these ''HOme Guards" are
being organized in all parts of East Tennes-
see, and are drilling once in each week. Let
the companies everywhere be increased, and
let them practice military tactics. 1t can do
no harm, as they are for peace, and il cir
cumstances make it necessary for them to de-
fend their rights. they will only be the bet
ter pr epared.-KnorgiILe Wing, 1lh.

and Gov. HARRIS, will be read with in.
terest, as indicating the position of the Gov
ernor in this crisis. Every candid man who
reads il will conclude that he occupies the
only position which patriotism and gratitude
would dictate in the circumstances by which
| be is surrounded:
NASHVILLE. July 10. 1861
| Gov. IsHAM q. HARRIs-De1r .Str The
| Legislature has adjourned, anda few weeks
brings the time for State elections. This cleo
ton comes amidst the troubles of war; waged
upon onr homes and fresides by the fanatics
| of the North
This is not time for political discussion,
and the true friends of the soldier and the
cause for which he takes the tented field, will
not urge it.
Patriotism calls the sons of Tennessee to
unite sword in hand, forgetting the past, and
drive back the insulting invaders. Let those
who give them aid take such verdict as the
country will render.
The chair which you have filed for two
terms with SO much ability viii by law soon
be vacant. Your duties have been severe I;
you have discharged them with fidelity.
Your patriotism and cbivalry have been
tested, and coming events may make ii ne
cessary to draw on them again.
As manifestation of respect for manly de-
voton TO all the inter ests of the State, for
your defiant response to the call for men by
Mr.. Lincoln for your uuwearied, bold and
chivalric bearing, ia maintaining the high po-
sition assumed for Tennessee your cousttu-
ents the advocates of self-goveTnment and of
Southern independence, desire you TO remain
where you are.
IL is, however, deemed proper by many
voters that some assurance should be given
that the duties and labors thus imposed would
not be declined.
