The Feeling 10 ClarksriIIe, Tenn.

CHICAGO; Feb. PA special
dispatch to the Times of this city,
dated GAINESVILLE, The 22d inst,
gives the following gloomy account
of the state of feeling among the
population there: 1t says there is
but one Union man in the place,
and he is sixty years old, or he
would have been killed long ago
The Hon. Cave Johnson, who was
a powerful advocate for the Union
until The war commenced, is now
a powerful advocate on the other
side. He says that the only ct:
feet of our success viii be to drive
the people of Teniiessee into the
mountains, and render them des-
perate. -" ga
There is not Il spark Of Uhior
feeling here and no one pretends to
disguise the fact. The people Of
GAINESVILLE glory in secession, but.
at the same time, they are tremb'
ling lest the town should be burned
There was a large quantity of reb-
ell stores, portion of which was
carried off and the remainder de-
stroyed. Therebel leaders shipped
athousand negroes last week from
GAINESVILLE. r

The crossing was effected at midnight and
