A PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT IN
TENNESSEE.

The recent appointment by the President of
Senator Andrew Johnson IA Military Governor
OF Tennessee il a circumstance of much sgnif-
canoe. The terms of bis combustion have not
yet been made public; aud we ara not there
fore in u condition 10 judge Of the precise
function which he is expected to perform.
The most distinct statement Of ii which we
have seen is one furnished TO The PhHadeiphia
Press by Col. lorney, WHO writes from Wash
inglon of Senator Jobnscns prospective move
menls 10 the following terms:
Iii, hr,s step v te TO see upon the mIcbIrery Of the
ae toseflm,n to carry the idea that act Of ece.

DO. by the Government you Will perceive hou, the ad
OF Corr,s and ia significant evidence Of tie justice and
"a ediruey Of th, policy that portion OF tbs Repre-
sentative, snl son,ios ;iess found to obec to it."
This appointment implying. a. 1t does a de-
cisye recognition by the President and his
Cabinet Of the great fact that the political or
ganization of . se.eding State has ceased to
exist, has very great Importance; aud We are
surprised that II has not attracted more ot at
tcntion and remark The Presidents nomiua.
ton Of Senator johnson as n Brigader Gene
raj. and assignment TO him of Tennessee as his
military district. were an ordinary exercise OF
military authority an the part OF tho Com
mander-in-C hicf. That appointment, however,
Senator johnson could not accept without re-
signing bis po.ition IN the Senate, which We
trust he does hot intend TO do.
But " sn be Is appointed Military Governor
the aspect of the case IL changed. No such
rank exists IN our army Us Military Governor,
and the designation of the Senator TO that
position is an act Of something else than mill
tary authority. II Ia an assumption OF power
orer the existing State organization Ii of.
firms the Presidents right 10 take the whole
subject itto his own hards, to designate whom
he VIII to TIE novel Office which Mr. Johnson
ellis, ard to esiablish there whatever arrange
mems he may see tit 10 adopt. ii Mr. John
son is appointed Governor of Tennessee, It is
because the former state OF Tennessee has no
! longer the rights # State under the Constl-
tuition; because there is no existing Gov.
ernor and 10 constitutions, method by which
J The Union people of Tennessee can elect one.
/ Ii Mr.. Johnson is to "seizc" tho machinery
POI Government, it is because there is no
one else entitled to hold it, aud because the
whole machinery Of the State Government
must BE- somehow provided for at Washington.
II proceeds upon the suPposi,ion that the
local Government is obsolete, or rather ID ex-
tnct. So far, then, from carrying out the
idea that no act Of Secession can anuiha,e
"a State OF ths Union" the Only bearing OF

Gen. Pillow. having sufficiently recovered
from the fatigues Of his rapid retreat from
Fort Donelson, has put forth his official report
Of that affair. He wrestles with Lis subject
through several columns Of the newspaper III
which he came to the public eye. The whole
of the report will be found on another page.
The narrative will be read with much interest.
disclosing, as it does, such truths concerning
the Rebel cause. The manner of the ineloriou'
and cowardly flight of Floyd and Pillow is
infinitely set out.

The steamer Mississippi, chartered BY the
Government TO carry troops to Ship Island,
sailed from Fortress Monroe some days since,
having on board Gen. Butler aud his staff.
On the morning of the 2oth ult, she went
ashore on Fryingpan Shoals, of Wilmington,
n. C.. The Mount Vernon hauled her oil, and
she proceeded on her way; it was thought
that sac would be able to reach Port Royal
without difficulty, where she will be repaired.
The report that she was Intentionally ruu
on shore by Capt Fulton is considered by
those who best know that officer ID be without
foundation, and malicious in its origin.

With tl.sse figures before them, it is easy to un
,der.tand why the directors declined to increase
the dividend to .sour per cent, and why specula-
tors have latterly avoided the stock. In 1867,
when the road was doing better and earning more
money than il is now. il was deemed dear enough
at So. When the Mississippi Is reopened this
winter or next spring it will be considered quite
high enough at a somewhat similar figure,
