The Tennessee AdnittinE Resolutions
Disapprovcd by tho President-He
would Veto IL.
WASHINGTON, March S.-Ths Tennes-
see question continues to be the leading
topic in Congress, in regard to the resolu-
tons reported on Monday. A delegation
of Congressman, supporters Of the Presi-
dent, waited on him last evening and re-
ceived definite assurance that the resolu-
tons could DO combatted, and would be
vetoed il passed. The President said he
could not sign away his wi citizenship
by approving a resolution that declares
that Tennessee is out Of the Union and
needs the action Of the lsw.making power
to get back.
Lively time may be expected when the
ball fully opens, compromising for the quiz
etness of the past ten days.

Predicate Views.
Maynard and Stokes, Of the Tennessee
delegation, approve the Congressional
plan.

other day, declaring that Congress should
not admit Southern Representatives with
out mature elaboration, and was right ! n
demanding a test oath and taking time to
examine into the condition Of the Southern
States.
He said It seemed to DO regarded as a
great outrage that Congress did not let
members right in, regardless of all ques-
tons, to draw pay and begin to legislate
for the whole country ; when half Of these
members elect had been in the rebel army.
He further said "If I was in Congress
I would vote against the repeal of the test
oath, till I froze to my seat"
The Union men in Tennessee are par
ticularly stiff in this matter, because they
arc determined that none but original
Union men shall vote in that State. They
have the power in their " hands and
mean to hold it; although they exclude
from suffrage the rebels pardoned by the
President.
II a division between the President and
Congress should come on the pending res
o~lution, the Unioniss now in power in
Tennessee would be pretty sure to be
against the President.
