The rebels protest vehemently against
the terrible sin Of the Federal Govern
ment in endeavoring TO subjugate them.
But they forget the doctrine which they
proclaimed themselves two years ago in
@ Tennessee. When the East Tennessee
Union Convention met in Greenville, the

claimed it's eternal adherence and devo-
% ton TO the Federal Union, the boldness
Of the patriotic mountaineers startled and
alarmed the traitors in Nashville, and one

If any orator in this community is
bursting with a speech, he can easily find
a large assemblage, from nine o'clock in
the morning till four o'clock in the after
noon collected around The door of the
Provost Marshal's Office on Cherry street.
Whether the audience viii be an attentive
one or not we cannot promise. Would it
not be a great accommodation to worthy
loyal citizens that the pass Office should
be kept open during the entire day ?
We have heard Of several instances
where deserving men have been detained
in the city several days waiting in vain
for a pass, to attend to necessary BUSH
ness. The crowd is so great that it is
often impossible 70 make an entrance, as
we have several times ascertained in

but it is certainly highly desirable that
all loyal citizens should have q chance to

Nothing can be moro clearly establish

Massachusetts invalidated the Brit

resisted from adherence of the slave
trade. Never before had Eng

with such eager a%varice. The
remons.rances Of philanthrophy and OF
the colonies were UNDECIDED, and categori-
cal instructions from the Board of Trade
kept every American port open AZ mark

ginia had repeatedly showed a dispo-

deeply seated public opinion began more
and more TO avow the evils and injustice
of slavery itself, aud in 1851, it was pro-
posed to suppress the importation o.
Africans by a prohibitory duty. Among
those who took part in the long and vic.
