Kentucky and Tennessee

--The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun written:

On the 20th of September the Legislature of Kentucky will meet, and will embrace a two thirds majority of Uniform men in both branches. They will at once proceed to depose Governor Magemn, and to deal with the United States Senators Powell and Breckinridge They are much inclined at the neglect of the United States Senate to pass a bill legislating Judge Monroe out of office.

Arms will now be conveyed without difficulty to East Tennessee, Should the forces under Gen. Fillow and others attempt to pass through Kentucky on their way to attack Cairo or St Louis, there will be hot work on the old ‘"bloody ground."’

The Sun's correspondent seemed to be strongly tinctured with Black Republicanism.
