From he Cincinnati I1meS.3
Immediately after the victory at Somerset,
General Thomas set about opening every ave-
rue 10 East Tennessee, with y view Of reach
ing Knoxville in the shortest possible space Of
time after the mud dried up. No one who
knew the man doubted his energy, and much
was expected. But NC confess We we're great
" surprised when VIC learned the amount
which had been already accomplished While
the army OIL the Potomac has remained idle in
camp, because Of the mud, the left wing Of
Thonlas4s force, consisting Of the two Tcnnes-
sec. one Ohio, and two Kentucky regiments,
with five hundred elSaiEy aud !. battery of
eight suns, have advanced seventy mites
of this month were but ten miles this side Of
Barboursil!c, and twenty six miles Of their nl-
tima1c destination.
From resident of East Tennessee named
Charles Coleman, who arrived in this city last
night, we lave obtuiued pretty full particu-
lars Of the strength Of the expedition, as well
as thcforce and situation OF the enemy. There
Gre in the Gap not to exceed twelve thousand
Confederate troops with no chance for rein
forcements, US they arc in the midst Of hos
tile country.
Tie patriots Of East Tennessee are in daily
communication with Our forces, and the in
stunt our army attacks the rebels in front,
! they will rise and cut off supplies from the
rcar. The Cumberland Gap Is the strongest
| position in the South, and is capable Of being
| rendered as lmprcgnahleas that OF Thermopy-
| liz; but as yet it has not been very strongly
fortified. We may expect to hear Of battle
there soon. Our informant states that the
loyal people Of Tennessee are as firm as ever:
| Tie Confederates h.ye been circulating :
Thousand fa1schoods among them; almost
daily telling of victories gained over til
National forces, Of the Intervention q
! France and England, Of tho bankruptcy o1
| the North, Of the existence Of a peace part

that in two weeks after our army aeizes tn
Cumberland Gap. 10000 loyal Tennesseean
and North Carolinians will enroll themsclve
under the old flag, and all the Government
will have TO do is 10 furnish item with arms
Since the defeat Of Zo1lieof1er's army, ther
has existed no obstacle to q communication

Popular Ddstrust OF thc Convention.
From the Springfield m} Journal 18th tast,1
. The oligarchs in the Convention are raising
the cry that we are attempting to create pre-
judice against their work. even before they
have finished their labors that VIC are attack
II because they ale 't Democrats, - as they are
pleased to cali themselves, and for no other
purpose Now we Wiah them to understand
that so far as the Convention is concerned, ne
recognize no party politics whatever; and, so
a man is q loyal UnioBist, VIC do not stop to
inquire whether he is Democrat OF Repnb-
ican.
If any prejudice does exist in the minds Of
the people, it is over the shameless partisan
attempts Of the Convention to usurp powers
which it does not possess, and to initiate pro-
eeedfpgs which are unconstitutional and rcyo-
lutionary. No donbt these treaeherous sehenl-
ings began with the beginning Of the ConEen-
tion. It refused to organize according to law. It
refused to take IN oath 10 support the Constltu-
ton Of the State. It at once set itself up not
merely IS q Convention but as tie legislature
Of the STATE It nnconstfsutionalIy appointed d
tricts. It started The inquiry whether it could
not even elect United Suites Senator in Mr..
Browniug's place. It LAS gone on to pass laws
and ordinances, and put them into immediate
effect arfthoat s.stsatfin' the,a to the ptoHe. It
has proceeded TO instruct the sleo17t officers OF
the State In regard to their official duty. It
has impudently proceeded to even amend the
Constitution Of the United States; and in tine,
is perpetually engaged in pushing nattcr5
which do not in any wise pertain to its legi:i-
mats duties. These frauds upon the people
have NOT only caused prelrtlice and distrusr to
be excited, but, it uanst be confessed, they ars
deep seated and wide spread. The populs,
