Tennessee (Tennessee, United States) (search for this): article 8
The reported capture of Gen. Vance. --The telegraph a few days ago reported the capture of Brig. Gen. Vance, of North Carolina, in East Tennessee. A letter from Madison co., N. C., in the Standard, says: He left Asheville, and proceeded through some of the western counties, and crossing the mountains made his way into Sevier county, Tenn. He then came upon a Yankee foraging train, which he captured, and was making his way out when he came upon a blockade in the road on Cosby's creek, which took him some ten or twelve hours to remove. In the meantime, the Yankees started in pursuit of him, and overhauled him on Cosby's creek, at the ford, where they are reported to have almost completely surrounded him, and it is feared that they have succeeded in capturing him and the larger portion of his command. These are such facts as we learned on yesterday from some who made their escape. The statements are very confused and conflicting, and we still hope that the affair is not so

Abraham Lincoln (search for this): article 11
has been my lot to be with minorities. I dare do my duty in exposing maladministration of the Government. I have disciplined myself in opposition. When the old hero of the Hermitage was President, I have heard the old lion of the Hermitage roar, and I am not now to be frightened by the howling of jackals. I am earnest and honest in the expression of my opinion; I ask only the freedom of an American citizen to investigate the administration of my Government; the administration of Abraham Lincoln, as well as James Buchanan and Franklin Pierce. That right I intend to claim. Mr. Doolittle said if the Senator from Kentucky or New Hampshire thinks there is any disposition to screen or cover up the truth, they are mistaken; there is no such purpose. All I have said is, that the attacks made upon the Administration by any member of this body, and especially upon the Navy Department. by the Chairman of the Naval Committee, is what I most deeply deplore.

Debate in the U. S. Senate--Garret Davis. In the U. S. Senate, on the 8th, Senator Hale introduced a resolution to investigate the condition of the Navy and the manner and mode of procuring supplies, &c. Mr. Davis (Ky.) said, I have been referred to so repeatedly by the Senator from California and others, that I feel it necessary to say a few words. I have observed the restiveness of the Senators about examinations being made into the acts of this Administration. They are proper subjects of comment, and while I have a seat on this floor, and have reason and voice, they shall be, to the extent of my ability and according to my judgment as a Senator. I intend to do so, let the consequences be what they may. Has it come to this, that a great Government, organized and instituted by the people, based upon a free Constitution, cannot be investigated in its line of policy and administration without incurring vehement abuse?

I have observed the restiveness of the Senators about examinations being made into the acts of this Administration. They are propell we must sustain the Government, and go on spending and fighting until the rebellion is subdued. I do not believe that this Administration has fraudulently expended money, though it may have been fraudulently obtained from the treasury. Mr. Davis said: I think that the Senator who preceded me said that the office of a loyal man was to sustain the Administration in the performance of its duty.

very just measure of this Administration to carry on the war to a speedy and successful issue, but there is a higher vein of loyalty than that. Where a Senator — where any individual — believes that he discovers that the administration of the Government, and especially in its Executive Department, is in conflict with the liberty of the people, it is a higher prerogative of loyalty to oppose such aggression upon the Constitution than it is to approve its measures where they are right. I make my acknowledgements to the gentleman from California for his frankness, that he is in favor of free investigation. Mr. Conness remarked that the gentleman, in having fallen from "glory" to his present degradation, in having once heard the lion roar, was now compelled to listen to the howling of the jackals. "To what base uses do we come at last." It could not be fairly deduced from him that he could ever shrink from any of the facts regarding the proper administration of the Governmen
