Legislative Notwithstanding
scenes i'm the House,

Mr.. Steele of Marshall, made an elaborate argu-
ment of considerable length against the Franchise
bill yesterday beginning in the morning and con-
cluded after dinner. His speech evinced a good
deal OF care and preparation, although not offering
any new objection TO the measure in debate As
might naturally be expected after very protracted
discussion, IN which all parties had begun 10 show
signs OF WEAKNESS. He did full Justice to his
cause.
Mr.. Elliott OF Rutherford, followed in his mai
den speech, we believe, against the BILL and made
very handsome appeal on his side of the question.
His thorough courtesy and dignity of manner, won
him attention and respect of both sides of the
House. he always respects the feelings and views
Of others and it is not in his courteous nature n do
otherwise. His manner is worthy of univo-s.I in
itation At the conclusion Of his argument Mr.
Raulstcn moved the previous question, which imme-
distely threw the House into commotion, the enc
mics of the bill seeming warmly opposed to the vote
and IFS friends being equally resolved TO close an
exhausted and exhaustive discussion, by a final de-
cslon. The roll was called amid great deal of
feeling on the question of the passage of the BILL
with the following result

that quite number of its enemies had eitbe- sb.sn-
ted themselves from the House or refused n vote IN
order to prevent quorum, and thus defeat the pas

from the fact that some half dozen anti-Franchise
members who were present at the forenoon session
had absented themselves. Mr.. Mullins, of Bedford.

"Daily American UniOn."

We have seen two numbers of the above named
paper, recently started at Chattanooga. We have
read its editorials and selected matter and most
heartily rejoice that such paper has been started
at Chattanooga. 1t is true exponent of the prin-
cpes of the great Union party of the country which
suppressed the rebellion and is conducted with sig
nal ability. 1t is printed on good paper, with new
type and is quarto sheet For the sake of the
glorious cause for which the loyal people of the
try have suffered SO much, we trust this paper will
be literally patronized.
We had the pleasure of meeting in Knoxville
Gently Maj w. r. Tracy Treasurer and Manager of
the American Union. The Major has been gal
hnt and devoted Union soldier, and any enterprise
he connected with deserves success as long as he
advocates the glorious principles he now does, and
we trust this will be forever

meeting is called in this city for Thursday next,
March Ist, to ratify the proceedings of the Nash
vile Convention which was chiefly composed of the
rear-guard Of the Southern Confederacy.
Let the rear-guard of the rebel party in East Ten

They don't like Horace Maynard and his Union
colleagues, and they can do something to keep them
out of their seats in Congress by showing to loyal
COngressnch that rebellion is rampant in Tennessee,
and treason popular.

the character OF the chief orators in the Nashville
Convention some Of his first Lieutenants Will be
