The city Of Knoxvi!lsET tennessee, which is d..
rectly in the path Of the onward march,sf General
Burnside's army, is the capital of Ek5jk County,
and was formerly the seat Of they Skfs govern
ment It is beautifully situated on ths MliGk bank
of the Holston river four miles beIowsits. coHfiu-
ence with the French Broad river, one hundred
and eighty-6ve miles east of Nashville, and two
hundred and four miles southeast of Lexington,
Kentucky. It has several important railroad con-
nections. extending into Virginia and Georgia.,
The vote in Kentucky, with eleven counties to
hear from, foots up an aggregate of 126, ,s3s. The
total vote for Governor in 1859 was l4s,479: in
ls60 for President, lat 2l6; Border State Conven-
ton in 1861, III, ,l20. The eleven counties to be
heard from will probably bring the vote of this
year up to 1870 00O0-but l3 900 less than that Of
$780, and not quite II 900 less than that Of the Pre-
sidentia election in 1860. More than this deficiency
Of voters have left the State and joined the rebel
army. The vote in 1863 must, therefore. be consi-
dered fair average, as compared with elections
of previous years.
The cotton market extremely tame and irregular
yesterday. Tho sales Of -four. wheat and corn were
heavier, opening rather buoyanty but closing with
downward tondency. There less inquiry for prov
sons. New mess pork fell or 12kc 25c. per
BIOL whisksy unusually active Sugars and moAsses
saeablc and steady. Green teas sought
after and doing better Petroleum was heavy and
less inquired for. New bay selling freely. Straw
was in fair request, ranging from 800. 70 4Oc. for
oat aud wheat, and 60o. 70c tor rye, per 100
lbs. 10 hales Tallow was somewhat brisker Thero
inquiry for freight room, and moro engage
reported, ostly bveadstu un, for the British
islands. The changes in other branches Of irstc
net important.
The Great Question 81 tho Day and the
Artful Dodgimg or the Radical Prsss.
The great question Of the day-the admission
of the reclaimed Southern Statss-every hour
more and more confounds and puzzles the radical
press. AS the time approaches for the erection
Of the respective platforms for the great con-
test Of 1864, these politicians are bewildered
like men who are treading on a quagmire,
fearing to sink over their ears at every step, or
like persons crossing about midway a broad
frozen river in thaw, when the cracking ice
is giving way under their feet and on every
side around them, and it is equally perilous to
advance or retreat. The chief organ Of the
radical faction in this city furnished a remark
able example of this tergiversation the other day
| in two editorial articles which IL published
one entitled, "what Will Be-" and the other,
''The Democratic Platform" an article relating
70 the Iowa election for Governor-which will
be found transferred TO another part of this
mornings HERALD. The latter article copies q
/ letter Of General Tuttlc, the democratic candi-
date, accepting the nomination, endorses his
views and regards his chances Of election as
good, as his letter will ..help him immensely
among the volunteers
The facts Of the case are remarkable. At
the Democratic State Convention there was
severe contest between the copperheads and
the conservatives or Union democrats. The
| copperheads succeeded in gaining the nomina-
tion for their man, Fisher. though the other
party alleged foul play in the counting of the
votes. Fisher, on finding how the land lay,
withdrew from the contest, and, the copper
heads not nominating any other candidate, the
| nominee Of the conservative democrats, Gene
raj Tuttle. q volunteer for the war, became the
sole candidate Of the democratic party, on the
principles set forth In his letter, which are the
principles Of the Kentucky platform. Thus the
copperheads in Iowa were compelled 10 give mp
their foolish ideas and to acquiesce In the nomi-
nation Of democrat who is determined to sus-
tain to the uttermost the war FOR "the Union
without an H." by "all means that may be in
our possession recognized by honorable war
fare" and who will not agree to mako the abo-
lition Of slavery condition precedent Of the
| restoratiou OF the Southern States-his only
condition being "the submission Of the rebels TO
the constituted authorities Of the government
Of the United States" He further dsnounces
the alarming" party intolerance" that pre-
walls, and observes with truth:-"Most Of the
questions are entirely outside Of the main and
| only aueation now before the nearlA--that IN
