It ia intended to coerce everybody in that State into tha support of an ex term! eating abolition war against tbe South. A Correspondent from Lansing, says: "Of course tbe bill has but one object, and that is, to make felons of the democrats of Mich igan echo express opposition, in any way, either political or otherwise, to Abraham Lincoln and Austin Blair.

Mr. Stephens of Georgia offered the follow ing bill: A Bill to be oo it led an act to admit the Slate of Arknnaas into lh« Confederacy. of iho State of Arkansas, in sov ereign convention, having pasted an ordinance dissolving their political connection with tho Ouited Slates, ami another ordinance adopt ing and ratifying tho Constitution for the Pro visional Government of the Confederate State* of America. Therefore— The.

Mr. Stephens moved that tbe bill be put up on its passage, and that tbs vote on it bo la ke o by States. Mr. Withers of South Carolina, said he pre sumed tbe offiotal evidence of tbe ps^sage cf an Ordinance of Recession by the State of Arkansas Was io this Convention, and ho de sired to have the faot aanooueed.

Xl^ ^obsaryjng ,tf*v.efor can al nasal reaken bit lafitu.fo ob'«f • lAngitetie, if he keeps a good lookout, for he will see a prospects of the “cropa” in East Tennessee are indeed cheering. Coro aud wheat are abun dant, aud everywhere thrifty and prutnieing. These, indeed, constitute the grand aiaplet though it has been said “Man shall not live by bread ahme.” Tbe most beautiful sight in passing from Cleveland to Knoxville is the broad fields oi clover just at this time in blown, and in a few days will be ready for the eeythe Clover and other grasses sre now being ex tensively cultivated, as their value becomes appreciated by tho farmers. Two, and even three crops the year may oe saved, and (wo tons the fere is uoj an extravagant yield. At $1.50 the hqndrod, for hick-it read:fy' sold last winter^ an aore would, pay $100 the year. At this rate it is as good a crop as cotton, be aides the cars ,an^ eoatof tending aft osl ao great; It woalj be well mf tbis fortnete of Georgia to give more attention to the grasses •cd grains for a few years at least, and let King Cotton have a rest. These are exciting times we have fallen up on, and remind one very forcibly of “the time# of which we read." Every thing has a military aspect, and it is astonishing how quickly the magic waod, "to arms,” baa changed the even teuor and routine of everyday life. The spirit of the times finds itself exemplified in almost everything that hks life. Even boy from four years old aedaipwarda U aimlmfc •oldies, and scarcely a footstep on the 4tr*c^t blit ta hie as ured as by tho tap of a drum. The East Ten nessee and Georgia Railroad is io fact a mili tary road, and eertamly doing its pari ia the defeuse of the country. Scarcely a train pass es but hat more qr man of war aboard, and onauy special trains have been freighted full within a few weeks. Several monster cannon have just passed down en route for Pensacola, I suppose. The writer bad the pleasure of seeing, at Knoxvillee, a thousand or mfns.of Ihe troops from Mississippi aod Ar kansas, together with a parade of tbs East Tennessee regiment. They are good looking men as a body, and will .prol^abij make 90 child's play withkbe enemy when they meet. They are prepared to make tbe oause their own ; and beside the musket, many of them were loaded down with knives aid pistols.— There is some unionism left in East Tennessee, and th# stsrp tapd Stripes muf yet J* Seyn banging to the breeze. Andy Jobuson is still playing that same old tune, butitls mostlikel^ he will "furn” It sdter the 6th of Jane. Mid dle and East Tennessee will, wjt^opt doubt, vote the Slate atH, ahd il ii not prebebld that they will allow Eaat Tennessee to secede aid set up for herself, though there would nodoVit be many in favor of doiogeo* There has been some little excitement in the mob line already in Knoxville, and it is very likely there will be yet more before the c6botty'1i4utetflgafil. Tt is very unfortunate for tbtomtinitiea to he at variance, especially at this time, for it is bad enough that Slate should be St WaY. ^ There ia a steady ith)>rbVeMeht making in Knoxville; and, vfftbid ‘a couple of years, many handsotfte * add permanent buildings havsgotie tip on Gay, the principal street.— Knoxville will undoubtedTy be a place of con sidsrabte importance at sdrue future day, when the Kentucky aad Smith CafoiitJa' Railroads ahall have been completed, and IhS^tnanttfoc- toriet that ara anticipated ahall have been sat in operation. It certainly has many advents* 1 geoua features, being situated ia a part af Iba country wheas sell and climate ara uaexeap- tioaabte.

Tbe British Government has just made a formal recognition of tbe Kingdom of Italy, and already Commissioners from soother new Stale are ao th tin gay |o claim, a similar re cognition of accomplished facts. The Govern ment of the new Southern Confederacy of America has despatched three Commissioners to obtain frost the leading States of Europe the recognition of ibeir country as an inde pendent power, and to negotiate with them commercial treaties on the footing of recipro city. These Cotumifliioners ark now Grossing the Atlantia, »pd in liftl* mors then a week they Fiff.,sfrive to couitpebod. tbeif important mission at the Court of St. James. A Minis ter at the BririsIrCouft has. at the same time, been appointed by the Cabinet at Washington, to represent -tba views of President Lincoln, and will arrive almost simultaneously with the rival mission'/nota Montgomery* Tbe Southern States are confident as to tbe Government is to recognise every de facto gov ernment, aad tba government of tbe Southern Confederwy, is /** much an accomplished fast as is tbe Kingdom of Italy. The Northern 8tates—the old Union—msy not recognize the sew Confederacy, any more than Austria re cognizes the Kingdom of Italy; but tbev have made no attempt to resist Ls establishment, aud fftbey do make such an attempt they will assuredly fail Our Government has no choice in Glia matter. We have uo desire ip see sjxj uodue halleMk.the resegAilton.of Abe new poer* er. Our Government, out of courtesy to the Cabinet of Washington, may delay its answer for a few days, until it it fully apprised of the views aud intentions of President Liucoln— But Any longer delay than fa absolutely nec essary is most strongly to be deprecated. We would not say it would be uuseemly that Engl and, who ao readily recognize* all gov ernments, should be behind Fraoee ia ac knowledging a Stale of her own kindred. It is enough for us that the Cabinet at Mont gomery is a de facto Government, nod accord ingly entitled to be recognized by us ss an in dependent power, wfch whan diplottiiit rela tions have to be established and commercial treaties negotiated. The recognition cf the Southern Confedera cy cannot he avoided, uor do we desire to avoid it. Tbe regret of the English people at tba rupture of the American Unioo, was a feeling most honorable to them, and which testified, ia a most striking manner, tha at tachment and good will of tbe parent nation acaWw yet the calamity io the Union which wa de plored, was evidently favorable to our own interests, both political end commercial.
