Nashville. Notwithstanding the assurances given by the Yankees, (says the Knoxville Register,) on their arrival in Nashville, that peaceable citizens should not be molested, nor private property or personal rights be interfered with, it is reported by persons just from that vicinity, that they have already violated these pledges by arresting Hon. Nell S. Brown, Senator Barrow, and other, prominent citizens. The despotic edict has been promulgated that no one must speak disparagingly of Lincoln or his policy, or favorably of Jeff. Davis. All who do are to be regarded as traitors. "Thus bad begins, and worse remains behind." Cumberland Gap. The Yankee newspapers have reported that the Federal forces have taken possession of Cumberland Gap; but the Knoxville Register has information through a courier that everything was quiet at that place. The recent demonstration by the Federalists, who have six regiments at Cumberland Ford, was merely a feint, it is supposed, to direc

uch a cause to fight for 7. The Old Dominion, the proudest and the noblest Commonwealth that has ever existed on this continent, is threatened with annihilation. The resplendent volume of her history is to be closed and sealed, and her very name taken away from among the nations. The land of Washington, of Jefferson, of Marshall, of Patrick Henry, and a multitude more of the brightest lights that ever flashed in the firmament of human patriotism and genius, is to become a province of Abraham Lincoln. The State that led the way in the civilization of this continent, and in the battles of America's Independence, and that gave to the country its Saviour, is to be chained to the car of a vulgar despotism, and to be merged in another province, which has itself been subjugated from freedom to slavery. For this is literally the programme that the organs of the Government have indicated. Western Virginia alone is to bear the name of Virginia, and Eastern Virginia is to become a portion

ual to its entire force! Nor is the capture of Nashville a subject of such unmingled gratification to the invaders as they had fondly anticipated. They do not hesitate to confess their mortification that no display of Union flags was made in Nashville, and no demonstration of the Union sentiment which they profess to have expected. The Union mirage uniformly disappears as they approach it. In point of fact, it exists no where in the South, and if it ever had since the proclamation of Lincoln, the bayonet is not the instrument to prepare a soil for its growth, nor the blood of a people the best fertilizer Nashville may be held for a time under a reign of terror, but neither Nashville nor any other city in our Confederacy is the South. The farther the enemy advances into the interior the weaker will his power of aggression and the stronger our capacity of resistance become. Fresh armies will rise to dispute his progress at every important point; guerillas will harass his march
