East Tennessee.

--The majority against separation in East Tennessee is estimated at from 10,000 to 12,000. We are gratified to learn that there is now a wise determination to acquiesce in the will of the majority, and to resist Lincoln's "irrepressible conflict" of aggression to the last. None who know the sterling character of the people of that section would expect anything less of them in such a crisis as the present.--Memphis Bulletin.
