Although secession as he believes, is revoluticni, if alStatc can secede? at ;Jl, it seems to us that she can carry with her full jurisdiction oyer all her ter ritory. Nor do we see how the President can construe tjie Constitution to overlook tlic all iili-’ act of secession, and yet feel himself hound by i|j to resist minor offences. These questions however, are not important for us to discuss—they are for the Cabinet at Washing-* ton.

A Knoxville paper says; • Ocoee bank Slspendijp.—The Ocoee bank ! of this city, which has held out rather longer than the other banks, has, at the earnest solici tation of our business men, suspended specie I payment for the present. The inclinations of the owners of this Bank were toehold on a pay out, as they were fully able to do, but this would have drained them of their specie, the other Banks having suspended. But by sus pending also, the bank has placed itself in a • condition to give that aid in a pecuniary wav, 1 which is so essential to the well’ being of the people, and to the traders and merchants, but to tlicir very deliverance from ruin. i THE TEETI.VG MAT SATI’BDAT. The people.of Tr. unty are invite meet at the Courthouse on Saturday next irre spective of parties to nominate delegates to the State Convention.
