The General Assembly.

This body, which convened last Monday,
has manifested disposition to move with
cslmness and elaboration But very little
business was transacted the first two days,
and the greater part of the third was devoted
to the reception and hearing of the Commits
sioners from Alabama and Mississippi, both
Of which States have since passed ordInan-
ces of secession and are now, as far as that
act can make them, out of the Union. The
speeches of the Commissioners were respect
fully heard, and one of them, that OF MI
WHARTON, of Mississippi, published Mr.
WALKER, of Alabama, has withheld MS Tor
"revision." 1t was an able effort, but need
ed the pruning knife" to render it pre-
sentable in type What effect the remark
able manifestos of these Commissioners
have had upon the members OF the General
Assembly is not apparent, if any There
are bills before both Houses having for their
object the relief of the people, but as yet
nothing has been matured on that SUBJECT
1t is proposed to do something towards or
ganizing the militia and arming the State;
and we doubt not the former will be done.
A bill introduced in the Senate, by Mr.
PAYNE, providing for a State Convention,
has progressed to a third reading, and after
being amended, was last Saturday, recon-
mitted to the Judiciary Committee, and
made the special order for to-day at o.
clock, Pm. A bill of similar character,
introduced in the House by Mr.. CAN'T, after
having been amended was passed unani-
mously, Saturday, and ordered to be trans
mitted to the Senate. The session, though
REF, has been prolific of resolutions, cover
ing almost every conceivable position touch
ing the crisis in our National affairs The
resolutions offered by Messrs. DAVIS, CAN'T,
and MoRPHIs, are engaging attention; those
of the former, we are inclined to regard as
affordine the basis of suitable action on the
part of the State, looking to the Prezerva-
ton of the rights of the South.
We trust that the session will be contin-
ued .harmoniously, and its deliberations
result in increasing the glory and renown OF
our Commonwealth, and the prosperity aud
happiness of the people Tennessee is IL |
position to subserye the interests Of rational
