Of distinguished Tennessee rebel, nor in

Of the state Ct things in the South. It will
be feen th&t he considers slavery and 1cbal-

Continuing to speak Of that class Of Union
men, the writer remarks:
1.-THE Union army should be driven back
and The Confederate power ro-e6tab1ished IN
Tennessee, It would be hailed with delight;
because tho people would eay:" Under the
confede1acy ne know ne can save our
elayes."
WHAT ALONE CAN ESD TIE TROUBLE.
There is but one way to put q sop to this
evil, and bring the population up to full
sympathy with the tremendous issues Of this
conflict; and that is pierce Slavery through
and through, and let It die. Then the hour

fabric Of false society will be brought level
to the ground, and the people Of State will
lay. their foundations securely on Freedom,
and begin to. bu1d anew. There will be,
there can be, no improvement In Tennessee
until the thing is done. Entire peace aud
reorganized society are impossible until slay-
t,Ects the agony by Withholding his fiat.
"What pIetext can the President find fora

Abunda1t causes, every day. He would have

and preparedness to return to immediate
loyalty. That expectation has been grieyous-
y disappointed; every day we have evidence
that the Federal power Is dekpi.ed and reject
State; and the people do not rise to resent
it. No better grounds could exist for the
final decree Of the President, exdnguishing
the Institution which, beyond all question,
thus keeps alive the disloyalty Of the State,
and pa5al5 zes the equlyocal Unionism to be
found here.
Cannot the President be brought to appre-
eiate this state Of things, and striks! Let
him DO It the very next time he hears Of q

We observe in few Of the Eastern
papers growing disposition to grunt at
the delay at Charleston. Anxious as any
body can be for that place to fall, VIC hare
only to say, that Gen. Gilmore, unlike the
do-nothings who have elsewhere failed be
cause OF laziness or incapacity, has proved
his fitness for the task before him; and
that, he docs not take Charleston, the
fault is not his, nor that of the men under
his command. There is an old adace
about the. inpossibility Of boring aucur-
holes with gimlet, behind which i he

The secret was more than well kept.
The public, eager to know " hat was afloat,
were cuHnlugly misled: and the New Or
leans expedition, destined as everybody
supposed, for Mobile, is heard from at
Brownsville. Southern Texas is the point.
and the trade, which the blockade could
not check, between the Mexican port Of
1fatamo1as and the rebel interior, Is the
object against which the expedition is pri-
ma1ily directed. As landing has been
successfully effected, the contaband COM

Editors Chicago Tribune:
In View u the vtola!ion Of the Postal Laws
By some Ct our business men having co11es
prudence outside Of the mails, and using the
railroads for such purpose, the several Super
intendents, upon complaint thereof made to
them, promptly issued the subjoiaed circular;
which, as will be seen, il intended to guide
and requisite the action Of their respective
employees in the premises, and will probably
perform It's part in accomplishing the object
for which 1t was designed.
But desire, With your aid, to bring this
circular to the public notice, for the purpo=e
Ct extending the information 1t contains to
those Of our business community who are In
the habit Of sending letters aud other mail
able matter outside Of the mails by such con.
veyance, and thereby caution them against
breaches Of the Ian, which are, doubtless, In
most cases, made iguorantly.
It is to be hoped that the means thus used
for the prevention Of these frauds on the
postal reye1ue may effectual1y accomplish
that object; but If persistance in the yiola-
ton Of these laws continues, It riu be my
duty to enforce obedience to them, in all
cases, under the extreme penalties imposed.
