then placed in the dock. His counsel
put in an affidavit from the prisoner,
asking that the trial be postponed, in

that the affidavit was not sufficient to
postpone. Several witnesses were then
examined, when the jury after short

guilty. He was then sentenced to be

in 1861. The people of East Tennessee are for the

many OF them are idle, doing nothing, lying around

Ihls Methodist Conference has made good i'm

attended. have never heard betterpreaching, and
this remark is general among the people This is
the second year of the new Conference, and they
have as many as six Presiding Elders Districts and
sixty Stations and Circuits with the certain pros

travelling How can they do otherwise than in

they are backed up by loyal population, they have
the pecu mary means and they have the blessing of
God resting upon them. The Missionary Board
have appropriated Sl5, 600 to aid them for the
ing year. and the Church Extension Society has
given them $4,000 TO aid in building houses of
worship.
This Conference has taken into its fellowship at

been tied on to the rebel Conference, much against
their wishes, until the door was opened for their es

Hon. Garrett Daris, Washington, City:
SRI have just read your speech on the subject
Of Mr.. Brights letter. l blush for my manhood
when l come TO reflect that the tongue-and lips
and heart and mind that uttered the sentiments in
that speech raised and nourished in a land of
Gods word-Christs teachings and free govern
ment. How strange you should see and speak so
truthfully one moment and the next SO falseIy-Oh!
Vanity-vanity- self, self, me and mine What
praise and encomiums you have for all other peo-
pie who have tried to obtain their freedom save and
except only we poor three damned cavlers Mr.
Davis, don't you know that no nation yet could
consent to see and understand, and acknowledge
frankly before God and the world that any portion
thereof ever oppressed desired any more
freedom than they had. England thought thus of
all he colonies and fought several years to prevent
it. The United States is fighting with means
and desperation unknown to Christian nations to
prevent twelve thirteen States Tor colonies) from
leaving Government which they never Joined per-
manently and for all time, but which has most
speedily become the most despntir, tyrannical op-
pressive and hurthensome Of any nation within my
knowledge.
Now this oppression 1 feel, know and experience,
and utter the fact. You assume the Tyrants pow
er and tell me what say is not true. What des-
pOtlC ruler, or government earth does less? An
swer me this you miserable sinner before Cod
We'll may you say that true hearts would join
hands with England rather than ever again live
with our btterest inhuman enemies Yes, bless
God old England shall have u.s. she will have u.s. and
with twelve millions of "amens,' long before we
will be again the subjects Of Infdel Puritans Ra-
tionaists, and ravishers of our mothers, wives
daughters and sisters Free government in the
Northern States never was Observation-Disclosures was

sent for time. 1t ended the day armed vessels
were fitted out to kill innocent people unless they
longer submitted to the yoke and burden, even $780,
100000 per annum; and be slandered in the public
halls by public speakers. The Puritan Infdels sue
ceeded for time, but went under afterward. Truth
Catholic God eversed their cause. So will he
again. The Puritan is the enemy to God, is the
enemy TO Christ, the enemy TO truth; to order to
obedience, and therefore, the enemy to Free just,
and equitable government. None blind he
will not see. Black slavery IS nothing, and white
slavery is nothing all sink in view of the true cause
Of the present war, the cause is a thousand years
old. Meantime look TO your United States Govern
ment When the South is safely anchored in an
English harbor and French port, where arc you?

Quoting President Johnson.

Some OF the rebel papers are quoting the follow
ing extract from u speech made by the President in
the United States Senate, December l9 1850. and
Boosting that it is guarantee that he will stand by
them. We think il an unfortunate extract for them
it lsstes the course pursued by the present Con-
gress in scrutinizing all Executive nominations that
come before them from the Executive. II docs give
aid and comfort to the rebels but it also admonshes
the Senate to look after the interests of the country
How has Lincoln been elected, and upon what
basis does he stand \ minority President by
nearly million votes but had the election taken
place upon the plan proposed in my amendment to
the Constitution, by districts, he would have been
this day defeated. But il has been done according
to the Constitution and according to law. am for
abiding by the Constitution; and in abiding by il,
want to maintain and retain my place here and
put down Mr.. Lincoln, and drive back his advances
upon Southern institution, if he designs TO make
any. Have we not the brakes in our hands Have
we not got the power? We have Let South Car
olina and her Senators come; and on the 4th of
March next, we shall have majority of six in this
body against him. The successful sectional candi-
date, who is in a minority of Million or nearly So
the popular vote cannot make his Cabinet on the
4th of March next unless this Senate will permit
him.

ments upon the institutions of my country at the
threshold; and a man. as one that loves my coun-
try ana my constituents, l will stand here and re-
slst al eneroachments and advances. Here is the
place to stand. Shall desert the citadel and let the

Mr.. Lincoln send foreign minister or even con-
sui abroad, unless he receives the sanction of the
Senate? Can he appoint postmaster whose salary
is thousand dollars year without the consent
Of the Senate Shall we desert our posts, shrink
from our responsibilities, and permit Mr. Lincoln to
come with his cohorts, as We consider them, from
the North, TO carry of everything? Are we SO |

ted States Senator from Kentucky, in January, 1862
when the fighting Bishop was in command of a reb-
el army, and Mr. Davis was cooperating with the
