Tennessee for Freedom.

Tennessee is moving TO resume her re-
latlons with the federal government, and to
become free State. The people there
have just held a State Convention. and
nominated Parson Brownlow for Govern
or, and this fact alone means considerable.
The constitutional convention have already
PASSED an ordinance of emancipation, and
that there shall be no law recognizing
property in man. Thus two States are
added to the galaxry of free States. Thus
the world moves SO fast that even radi-
cal" men can hardly keep pace. The
propositions Of the convention are to be
submitted to the people for ratification on
the 22d Of February. and on the 4th of
March an election is to be held for Gov
ernor and members of the legislature.
Brownlow will no doubt be elected, and
the Constitution adopted, and Tennessee
will come out of a fiery furnace regenerated
and disenthralled.

War News.

|
The war news Of this week, though not
startling, continues TO be Ct the most favor
able character. The full details of the
capture Of Fort Fisher, makes it more
brilliant affair than first reports. The
number of cannon captured was 162
We also took large quantity of small
arms, and other stores. Best of all, our
own loss, though severe, is still less by
several hundred than first reports. Gen.
Grant telegraphed to the Secretary of War
on Tuesday, as follows: m
One of my staff has just returned from
Fort Fisher with dispatches from Gen.
Terry, from which l extract the follow
ing:
On the 10Th the enemy blew Up Forts
Caswell and Campbell, and abandoned
them and the works on Smiths Island,
and those at Smithville and Reeves's
Point. These places we're occupied by
the navy. The whole number of guns
captured amolnt to one hundred and sixty
two. 4 large number CT small arms also
fell into our lands, besides quantities of
ordnance and commissary stores. Our
loss proves smaller than at first eported
They foot up thus Twelve officers, and
one hundred and seven men killed forty
five officers, and four hundred and ninety
men wounded. u. S. GRANT,
Lieut. Gen.
Sherman is doing important work up
above Savannah, towards Charleston. On
the night of the l4th the 18th corps, and
the troops commanded by Gen. Hatch, ad-
vauced on Pocotaligo Bridge, on the
Charleston and Savannah railroad, and
captured it, together with The Notifications
and twelve guns. Our loss was forty
killed and wounded.
Perhaps the mos, important war news
is the general wrangle which prevails
among the rebels themselves at Richmond.
Some nave even gone so far as 10 talk of a
reconstruction of the Union. Gen. Lee
has been made Genaralismo of all the reb-
ell armies. This shows disafftciion TO the
rebel administration. The rebel Congress
have also made hit at Davis by the
adoption of resolution in favor of rein
stating Gen. Johnston, who was suppressed
ed by Hood. There is evidently great
despair in the Southern Confederacy.
Things are working, and the rebellion is
fast approaching collapse.

called it would not take him long to decide
upon his case, TO which Field continued
his violent talk, with Damn you, your
people want us back bad enough, and you
are afraid to face them if you don't vote
for u.s." He finally left, threatening KEEL
ley with personal violence, and on subse-
quently meeting Kelley in the corridor, he
rushed at him with bowie-knife, and be-
ing more powerful man than Kelley,
collared him, and as Kelley tried to olsen
gage himself, he cut his hand open TO the
bone with his knife. Anumber of persons
rushed up and disengaged him before he
could infiict any dangerous wounds upon
him. Kelley was taken to his room, and
DIR. Stone called in to dress his wound.
Field was taken to the station house, and
finally released on bail of one thousand
dollars, for further hearing.

Pooh FUN.--Last Tuesday morning
Jelhro Wetherbee, son of Mr.. Alden
Wetherbee of Burke, got up and built a
fire as usual, and then sat down near the
stove and went to reading. Suddenly the
stove blew open, and the fire flew into his
face, burning him badly and setting his
clothes on fire. Had he received the full
force Of the explosi,n he would undoubt-
eddy have been killed as it was the force
of the explosion, with the fire, wood and
cast-iron, mostly passed to one side of him.
1t is supposed that some neighbor put some
powder INTO stick of wood thinking to
have some fun; but like the fun the boys
had stoning the frogs one time, it came near
being the death of one of the parties.--

few minutes the whole village was aroused.
The authorities telegraphed the description
of the murderer all over the country, and
every means were taken to effect his
capture.
In the afternoon, towards night, the muir
derer was discovered in The privy Of the
Collins house, where he had been all day.
When found he was almost dead, having
attempted to kill himself. He had tied a
handkerchief over his mouth, and brought
the ends around his throat, and tied them
so tight that he must have died from suffo-
cation in few minutes more, if he had
not been relieved. He had also attempted
TO get into the vault, but had stuck fast.
When it was known that he had been
captured. the people became very much
excited, but be was safely lodged in Jail to
await the result of his foul deed.
This appears 10 us to be one of the COOL
est and most daring murders--or at least
attempts at murder--on record, occurring
as it did in broad daylight, in public
store, on the main street of the town, where
people were passing continually. 1t hardly
seems possible that any one would attempt
such deed, and at such time, for even
the largest sum of money that could be
imagined, the chances OF detection beirg
almost certain, and retribu,ion swift and
sure. But the evidence in this case is full
and conclusive, and nothing can save

of Mr.. Prentiss. Penitentiary for life will

How SOME FRENcHMEN EARN A LIv-
ING.-Necessity-the mother of invention
has been fertile in expedients in the
twelfth ayrondissement of Paris. There is
the magot-breeder for The fisherman of the
Seine; the money lender who charges
cent. per cent. by lending from sunrise to
sunset; the poor reueiHeuse, who goes from
house to house, through the winter nights,
to waken sleepers who must be at the mar
ke's; and there is the " guardian angel,''
whose business consists in seeing drunkards
home from the wine shops, at the rate of
ten sous per drunkard ! Behind all these
quaint bread-winners, there are crowds of
men and women, who depend on public or
private charity.

MILITARY SUBoRDINATroN.-T dntv
of silent obedience, SO essential to success
in war, has been hard one for our volun-
teers, and especially our inferior officers,
to learn. AT the beginning of the war,
Gen. Grant gave this good advice to
friend of his who had been made Colonel :
Colonel, you have not been accustomed
to military life, and let me give you little
advice. Always obey orders, and perform,
as near as you know how, what you are
tod to do. Though you may think at
times, and justly, too, that you are over
looked and wronged, do not make any
complaints, or quarrel with yonr brother
officers. BY SO doing, you will secure, in
time, honor and promotion"

CANADIAN NEws,-We have highly
favorable news from Canada. In the open

nounced. .......
A determination was expressed to stop
the abuse of asylum, and commissioners
were appointed TO enquire into the cause
of the failure of justice in reference to the
release Of the St. Adams raiders, and the
Misrepresentation of money restored to
them; also, TO inquire into the conduct of
Judge Coursol and The Chief of Police.
In the meantime the Government has sus-
pended the Judge. In Parliament on
Tuesday Mr. Cali, Minister of Finance,
brought down a message from the Gov
ernor General transmitting the estimate for
the current year, in which is included some
fifty thousand dollars in gold TO made good
the money improperly surrendered in the
case Of the St. Adams raiders, and claimed
by the Government of the United States
under the extradition treaty. The Gov
eminent has also removed Judge Courso,
who set St. Adams raiders at large. This
is decidedly favorable if they will stick to

FIFTH n. III. REGIMENT.-We have re-
ceived communication from an officer
of the 9th N. II. regiment, the length of
which will prevent its publication. We
regret that our space will not permit, es-
pecially so since we would be glad to altcdys
oblige soldier. The writer refers to the
fact that several members OF the regiment
have been arrested, and shot for desertion,
and we agree with him precisely that the
regiment, which contains some as brave
men as ever went into the army, should not
De held responsible. On the other hand,
those deserters who were shot were mere
bounty jumpers, sent to the regiment by
authority at home. They were the scum
of the cities, and never should have been
sent to the regiment, aud The fact that they
were thus sent is no fault of the brave men
who composed the regiment when it first
went into service.
