y gentleman here who was in commu-
nication with the Unionists of East Tonnes
see IS OF the opinion that the Convention
called to meet at Knoxville will pursue
course similar to that adopted by the Wheel
ing Convention. They win repudiate usurp-
ers at Nashville, and elect a Governor and
organize State Government as near as
possible in conformity with the provisions
OF the State Constitution and call upon the
loyal men of Tennessee to rally to their
support. The Union men there are at the
lighting point. All they want from the
government is arms. Where they have
them they will take care of themselves and
close the Cumberland Gap RAILROAD against
the rebels. II has been the main avenue
for reinforcements and supplies for the reb-
els in Virginia. This movement will sup
ply another segment to the circle of Union
men, that is being eradnalIy frightened
around the rebels in Virginia.
