sequences: Mr. Bell stated that he did not intend to take any new position. It was true, that after the last Presidential election he had vindicated Lincoln. He knew that Lincoln entertained ultra Abolition views, but still he believed he could do no harm, because he could not move an inch without his Cabinet, and the Senate could have checkmated him.--Had not the Southern States seceded, at the end of Lincoln's term the Republican party would have been shattered to pieces. Last February, when one or two States had seceded, the question was, Shall Tennessee go out of the Union also? Mr. Bell had said no. He had expressed his belief that Lincoln was traduced — that he did not favor the idea of negro equality. He was present at Lincoln's inauguration, and worked hard for ten days and nights to preserve the Union. He had come home and represented Lincoln for peace. Lincoln had professed peace, and Mr. Bell had warned the Administration against coercion. He had told them t

he had taken his position. The noose was probably around his neck, but he was frank to declare himself a Rebel! He had counseled resistance to the invasive policy of the Federal Government, and that made him a Rebel, and if there was any punishment to follow it, he was willing to incur it; he did not seek to evade either the charge or the responsibility.

-- Notwithstanding the eagerness of the North to engage in and prolong this war for military glory, he did not believe it would be of long duration. He thought it would be ended in a year. England and France had an interest in the matter, and they would not permit it to continue. It was to their interest to favor a reconciliation. He paid a high compliment to the brave young men who have marched from the South into Virginia to fight. He contrasted them with the Northern troops, and while he awarded courage to the Massachusetts troops, they were not composed of the best class of Massachusetts men. He would not debate the question whether the first one or two States had acted right in seceding. He did not believe they had; but when seven or eight States had seceded and their people were unanimous, it was then a revolution, and the Administration had made a great mistake in attempting to coerce them. They never could coerce them; they never could conquer them. ****

He believed they were extra-constitutional, but in a Revolution all laws and all constitutions were done away. There is no law about it. The Union men of East Tennessee were pledged to submit if the State voted out by a clear majority — with a qualification — namely, if it was done without fraud. That was anidle qualification.

Two witnesses swore exactly the reverse of each other about the matter, and the Mayor continued the case until to-day.--Daniel Johnson, a person with sunburnt face and heavy beard, who said he was partly raised in Kentucky and partly in Canada, and had just arrived from New York with a letter from General Cocke to Governor Letcher, the latter of whom told him to circulate around as he pleased, was placed in durance till his Excellency could be called on Austin Gibbons, arrested for using incendiary language, was committed. Gibbons said he was drunk. The Mayor told him, "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh," and he should have to send him, at least for a time, where the police cease from troubling and the wicked are at rest.
