TENNESSEE.

The Union men of Tennessee are fulfill
ing the best hopes of their friends in the
North. They cNhibi; degree of courage
and sagacity which entities them to the
highest praise. The Negro Suffrage Bill,
which has passed final vote in tie House
of Representatives, is certain To PISS the
Senate. it is said, and To receive the ap-
prOval of Governor HrOwnlOw. The
Governors pOsitioni on this question, in
fact. as on every other. is uneqairOcal. =
The rebel press o. the State has not con
tented itself with pouring out The grOSscst
yitupcratiOn and abuse against the loyal
Government, but in apprehension of the
passage of this suffrage measure, and Oiihe
loyal Militia Bill now pending, i! has in
dulged in open threats of insurreciion and
war. Nor have the rebels confined them
selves to mere threats of violence. y
Union Senator was asSassnatcd by nOtO-
rious guerilla, under circumstances o
great airocitv, for the sole reason that ht
was Union man, and a supporter OF the

Regardless ofthreats and of actual vio

any other, but for his base betrayal of thei

difficulties, the brave Union men OF Ten
ncssee have moved steadily forward in th'
path of duty. BY giving the ballot 10 til,
4 loyal black man. they now exhibit th,
highest political wisdom. Doubtless i
costs a great sacrifice of prejudice; il can
not be otherwise with men born and reareC
in slaveholding State This fact entitle
them to the greater credit for the signal &C
of justice they have determined to sccom
plish. With the negroes eniranchiseo. til
cause of the Union is safe in Tennessee
Without their enfranchisement, il woul'
be in the highest degree insecure. a. ha
been shown in the case of Maryland. Tn
rebels appreciate this; and hence the fur
Gus opposition they offer the measure
They met the negro on the battlefield, an
they know he will use his ballot to uphOl
the same cause for which he carried tn
bayonet. In his enfranchirement they sc
the handwriting OH the wall.
BY this great measure, Tennessee place
herselfin in the van of the new civilization {
the South. She adopts the principle tha
will sooner or later redeem that fair Ian
from the degradation and stagnatio
wrought by the system of slavery; and th
future historian of liberty in this counir
will point to the Union men of Tennessee
who are now so reviled by their enemie

Thrive Slowly.

1t is dangerous for man 10 grow Itch
and strong faster than he grows good. i
do not think it is wise to grow rich. too fast,
at any rate. do not mean to say that
there may not be men of such stature that
they can grow rich rapidly without being
hurt by their riches; but generally God
makes the road to wealth one of care, so
that the process is one of education, and so
that, when man had attained his compc-
tence, he has gone through that which is a
strengthener, stiffener, and which prevents
his being much injured, by 1t. But when
men come into the possession, of wealth
without having earned it, they are apt to
be injured by It, because they have not re-
ceiyed that education which is necessary
to enable them to administer it properly
