WASHINGTON, July 81, 1866.
The House yesterday, by large vote,
agreed to admit Tennessee to the rights
and privileges of q State of this Union,
in the same manner as il would admit any
other Power or State practically acknow.

Radicals are daily asserting by their &C.
tons with regard to the excluded States.
The government OF Tennessee is not
altogether republican enough TO suit the

maybe the indisposition of the Stevens

be SO glaring that they dare not oppose it
any longer. 1t is easy to perceive that
there is not vast amount of satisfaction
derived in thus admitting new State.
All during the session Tennessee has been

Arkansas is thought to follow in her wake,
but not until the next session, and she
must ratify the amendment to enter the
Stevens Congress; and if conservatism
should not be successful enough in the fall

swallow that pill.
The President is not now the least back
ward in making removals from office, and
the only singular circumstance connected
with this disposition is that the highest DILL
Gals who openly condemn and denounce
his policy are suffered to remain. That
they will eventually GO the way of all NAL

their Radical friends and haDgerS-on boast
of their position being such that they can
annoy the President in various ways.
