SEC. 1. Be it enacted by tho General Assembly of the State of Tennessee, that 110 person in any non-slavc-I holding State, their agents or attorneys in this State, shall have power to sue or collect any monies owing to or any I property claimed by the citizens of any such State in Tennessee and the

Federal Government. "SEC. 2. Be it further enacted.— That it may and shall be lawful for I such debtoi's to pay such moneys into the Treasury of the State, which sums shall be receipted by the Treasurer, and shall be refunded with interests upon the cessation of hostilities."

A similar bill has been passed by tho legislature of Arkansas. Georgia adopted a similar course of dishonesty a month ago.

per: We are advised that the reason Governor Pettus has not ordered volunteers into encampment, to be supported and drilled at the expense of the State, is that the millitary fund provided for that purpose by the Legislature has already been appropriated or pledged, for the purchase of arms, munitions of war. &c., &c. and that he does not feci that he is authorized by law to appl}' to such purposes the general fund not thus specially set apart,, but intended for the ordinary use of Government.

The intention of Judge Taney, in issuing a writ of habeas corpus for the prisoner retained by General Cadwallader at Baltimore is to bring on a collision between the Judicial and Military Department of the Government, and if possible to throw the weight of the judiciary against the United States and in favor of tho rebels. He is at heart a rebel himself, for on Saturday, when it was supposed the rebels were attacking the United States forces at Arlington, Judge Taney expressed the

Hon. Robert Dale Oircn. Gov. Morton has oppintcd Robert Dale Owen, late Minister of Naples, an agent to Europe to buy arms for the State. This selection will be universally pronounced eminently "fit to be made.,, Mr. Owen is a man whose intcgrit}r has never been questioned in thirty 3'cars of partisan strife, and his ability is attested by a world-wide reputation in litcraturo and philosophy. He is widely acquainted in Europe, speaks nearly all the tongues spoken there, is familiar with European life and business, and is a man of the most untiring energy. T/o our mind he is the very man for the duty, and he enters on it with all zeal for which he is so well known.—State Journal.
