Coon News FROM TENNESSEE We
finally have decisive and glorious news from
Tennessee. The siege Of Knoxville has
been raised, and Longstreet and his rebel
army are in full retreat for Virginia, fol-
lowed by Sherman and Foster. The coun-
try will now breathe easier, and will hard
ly realize the great peril j, has been through.
This is a terrible blow and loss to the re-
bellion. The arrival of Sherman and Fos-
Ter doubtless determined the raising of the
siege, but the credit Of the defense will be-
long TO Gen. Burnside, whose whole cam
paign has been masterpiece, and bis final
stand at Knoxville is what has saved us
the State ard shortened by many months
the duration of the war. SO imporian! is
this reir, AT of the rel els. that the Presi-
dent Immediately recommended that all
loyal people assemble at their places of
worship, and give thanks to God for this
advancement Of the national cause. 1t is
not probable that the rebels will ever again
occupy Tennessee, and the cause of the
Union is bright indeed.

Organization OF Congress.

The prompt organization OF Congress,
more especially Of the House Of Repre-.
sentatives. is a matter of congratulaiion to
to the country, as well as the god news
from Tennessee. The loyal and straight
opa Union majority in the House is
aing,r than had been anticipated. even
~. The most sanguine. Emerson Ethridge,
the late clerk, evidently meant TO admit
sufficient number of interlopers, and ex-
cude enough Union menfon mere technical
grounds, TO give the organization of the
House into the hands Of the copperheads,
but he made very bungling work of il, and
miserably failed. 1t was very small re-
bellion, and has only covered its author with
the contempt Of the whole country. Even
the delegation from Vermont had TO have
their credentials made over again in order
to have their names entered upon the roll,
80 very particular was this Etheridgcl
But among the most gratifying features
of the organization of the House, is the vote
received for the Union candidate for Speak
er, from the border States. The Union
men from Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri
and Vir4inia, were cordial and hearty with
the Union men of the North. There must
have been some CONSERVATION among the
copperheads, when they saw four of the
Maryland delegation and four more OF the
Kentucky delegation voting straight out for
Colfax; but it will have good influence
throughout the country, and the copperhead
disuhionists of the North will be at a great
er discount than ever. 1t shows the dawn
Of bright future for this country, when we
shall again be a united people as a nation,
a free republic indeed, and when sectional
srifes shall no longer prevail in any part Of
The country.
