TIE TENNESSEE DIsFRANCHrSING Law
From correspondent in the Memphis Bulletin
we get some insight into the basis OF action of
the Legislature of Tennessee in exercising the
singular power of disfranchising citizens-a
power always exercised with the greatest eau
lion by original conventions ifindeed they ever
nlye done 50 previous to the Missouri affair
Ne do not know any case ia the history of con-
Siitutional governments, where such sovereign
powers have been vested in the Legislature. 1t
seems however that such was the case in Ten
ii"ssee.
I'll, present constitution was formed by a con-
Nrn:Ior which, il is said, did not meet as an au-
.loritative body duly delegated, Int says the
spondent they simply met a body of
{ -iou men, sincerely hoping to suggest some
plan by which peace, harmony, and civil law
might be restored to our State One clause of
t.re constitution framed by them reads as fol-
-..fs:
"The jurisdiction Of voters, and the limitation
e. the elective franchise, may be determined by
i Is Legislature, which shall first assemble un-
or the amended constitution"
This was submitted to the people, and Gin
what manner, nor by what vote we Go not re-
lIsmber) adopted, and under the above clause
the Legislature have acted Certainly it was a
Tremendous power hastily delegated.

THE FEDERAL COMMISSION TO TIE Is
DIAKs.-These Commissioners and their escort!
whose passage through town we mentioned iu
our last issue, arrived at or near Armstrong
Academy, day or two after the adjournment oi
grand Indian Council. embracing more tribes
than have ever before been together by drega-.
ton, at perhaps any Indian Council in Americas;
at least since the time of Tecumseh The infiu-
ences there present, would, it is believed, kave
controlled all the Indian tribes Of the Northwest
as far the great lakes.
They had Just concluded a treaty offensive
and defensive, with the Southern Confederacy,
and were ready to act with high expectations,
I'm active combination with its forces.
Only the Choctaw delegation remained: and
with these treaty was arranged, stipulating
cessation Of hostiliies until September, when
Commissioners with specific powers thoroughly
acquainted with the points at issue, could act
upon the stipulations of final treaty.
After this, the Federal Commissioners would,
as we are informed, have returned to Shreve-
port but Colonel r. N. Jones. Delegate Of the
Choctaw to the Confederate Congress, deeming
it important that the Tribes, whose representa-
tives had gone from the Council should be in

IMMIGRATION .-NEw YORK, june IA.
The Times Washington special SAYS
Mons Koronikozki, the agent of the ex-
patriated Poles, now temporarily sojourn-
ing in Switzerland, has arrived in this
city. and will wait upon the President
tomorrow to learn what, if any, conces-
sions can be granted to these unfortunate
people. They number from $4,000 to
10000, mostly peasants, and seek TO en-
igrate to this country and engage in ag-
riculture.
The Swiss Government has voted them
one hundred francs each, and the French
Government will pay their passage TO
Nav York. An effort will be made to
have them settle in Virginia.
We rather like the idea of this class
of immigration. Next to slave labor, we
believe that European immigrants viii
better develope our peculiar resources
than any other class. The extreme
South has few uplands capable of sue
cessful competition with the Northwes
in agricultural products, but it is the bes
wine country i'll the United States.

damage done American commerce by the Southern

The London Times says: Augury Is very difficult
in the Parliament, and complications exist that
may tend to war and with the termination of pego-
tiatons the administration has been called to con-
stitute new state of affairs.
The Daily News says: No liberal ministry is pos
sible without Gladstone ANY peer can lead ths
Lords but there is question to who should lead
the Commons.
The Daily News also says that the reported ulti-
matum from Seward has dwindled to statement that
he had written to Bgelow expressing earnest de-
sire that the Government may remain at peace, but
intimating that he feared Congress would dernsud
extreme measures If additional troops sent to
Mexico.
The Pauie says Bigelow abstained, necessarily,
from reflections upon French Intervention in his
review, but that unimportant, since the plan has
been given up.
The Times thinks that should Russell fail in form
ing ministry, union between the different sections
of the Liberals will become necessary and that Lord
Granville will probably be the person under whom
the greatest number of men will serve.
Garibaldi has declined the nomination of the Ital-
ian Government, offered at Turin.
