MORE ABOUT THE STATE BONDS.

MORE ABOUT THE STATE BONDS.
We have Just had conversation with Mr..
CALLAwAY, the President of the E. Tenn. & Ga.
Railroad Company, who corroborates the state
ment of facts in our issue of the I'd, relative to
the State Coupons. As there stated, the Com
pany had received from the Bank of New York,
evidence ofthe reception of SIS, 420, being more
than the amount due on State and Company
bonds. An account from the Bank at n. York
has since been furnished for $4,000 said to be
overdrawn by the Company-making, when ad-
ded to the $l5,42O,OO deposited in December,
Just $l6,l50,0O; which is, with the surplus en-
deposit, something more than $S06,OO over and
above the amount due upon all the bonds which
had to be met by the East Tennessee and Geor-
gia Railroad Company. How this mistake oc-
CURED we are unable to say. We have eonclu-
sively shown, if understood correctly, that the
Cupons of the State issued in favor of the Com
pany have been faithfully met. The State has
other cupons out, and money deposited in the
Commercial Bank of n. York, to meet the in
terest upon them as it falls due. Some of these
cupons may have been presented to the bank
of the State of New York and charged to the
Z. Tenn. & Ga. Railroad Company, when they
should have been presented to the Commercial
Bank, and there charged to the State of Ten
nessee. The Company never has failed to meet
her bonds, and the Bank never was overdrawn
it committed an error in paying cupons with
which it had nothing to do; for which the Road
Company were in no wise responsible, and the
redemption of which was known to be provided
for at another Bank

CircumstanciaI Eridence-I have heard some
extraordinary cases of murder tried. 1remem-
Der in one where was counsel, and for a long
time the evidence did not seem to touch the
prisoner at all, and he looked about him with
the most perfect unconcern, seeming to think
himself safe. AT last the surgeon was called,
who stated that the deceased had beer killed by
a shot, gun shot, in the head, and he produced
the matted hair and the stuff cut from and ia
ken out of the wound. A basin of warm water
was brought into the coo4t room, and as the
blood gradually softened, piece of printed pa
por appeared-the wadding of the gun, which
proved to be half of ballad. The other half
had been found in the mans pocket when he
was taken. He was hanged-LOrd Eldon's

RIVER IMPRovEMENT.-Thew work of improve
ment on our noble Tennessee river, between
Decatur and Knoxville, for which the Cover
ment appropriated $4,000, will now be COM
menced and carried forward energetically.-
We learn that it will be commenced at Knox
vile and carried forward down to the terminus.
Much is due to the Hon. w, NJ. Churchwell
for getting the appropriation for this very nee
essary work. Lieut.. Col. McClelland, of the
Typographical Bureau of the u. S. has charge
of it, and under the appointment Of Col. jeff.
Davis, Secretary of War, the following gentle
meu will act as Col. McClelland's assistants:
Jacob Newman, VIM. G. Brownlow, ]. Z. S.
Blackwell, c. W. Charlton, James c. Luttrell,
and Capt. George Nicholson, all good and
true men," the latter particularly qualified by
long experience as navigator on our waters,
for the important duties assigned him. May
the work be well and speedily done-CHatta-

Bsg~ John E. Helm has received the appoint
ment of Postmaster at Knoxville. AS the sp0ls
were the only issues in the last contest,it is &c
more than right and proper that the victorS
should at once seize upon them. Col. Luttrel,
the former incumbent, made good officer and
gave general satisfaction-but his Whiggery,
which at first was sweet became bitter as gall
We are glad that so clever a Democrat as our

If HENRY LIGGETT, jr. will allow his friends
to use his name as candidate for Representa-
tive in cold Roane," he will receive the undivi-
ded support of the "unterrified Democracy"
1t is right and pleasant at all times to reward
modest merit,-mor especially so, when found
in the young, bold, uncompromising ChampiO"
of TREE Principles; and as such, Mr.. Liggett
has peculiar claims upon the gratitude Of his
party. The remembrance of his noble assidui-
ty in the last canvass is still fresh and vivid in
the minds of his political associates;and though
he should deny US the favor now asked for, We
will long remember how nobly and valiantly he
struggled to uphold the standard of Pierce and
King in this stronghold of Whiggery. Il is
hoped, however, that his sense of duty will gain
the assendency over his modesty, and that
he will grant US the use of his name. We
want a man that can unite the party, and he is

AERIAL NAYIGATIoN.-Mr Porter has made
several successful exhibitions of his model aero
port, or flying ship at Carusi's Saloon, on which
occasion the assembled spectators manifested
ton, as the steamer, with its gay saloon and
hying colors, sailed about the hall, floating in
air, and with semblance of several passengers
looking out at the windows of the floating sa-
loon. On Friday afternoon the pupils of sew
eral schools assembled, and witnessed, with
manifest pleasure, the phenomenon of steam
vessel sailing through the air, propelled by an
operating steam engine.
We understand it to be Mr.. porters intention
to exhibit his eroport in the open air in a few
DAYS, for the purpose of showing its capacity to
run against fresh breeze of wind. If he sue
ceeds in this, it will go far to convince the pub
lie of the probability of aerial navigation on a
large scale.-NatiOnal Mtelligencer.
The Republic says:-To see this miniature,
sylphlike vessel, with its gay saloon filled with
automaton passengers, looking out at the win
dows,) actually elevated in the atmosphere, and
padding its way in any direction by steam pow
er. according to the dictates of its own helm,
tends to strengthen the hope that the untiring
protector of this means of aerial navigation
may succeed in bringing it to a practical result.
Mr.. Porter appears to be sanguine that a ma
chine on this principal can be constructed ca
pable of making two trips to California and
back in the course of week. carrying two hun
dred passengers.

ain Army ,cih Banners."-As You are whir-
led along over the Hudson River Railroad at
the rate of forty miles an hour, you catch a
glimpse every minute or two of a man waving
something like a white pocket handkerchief on
the ends of stick, with satisfactory sort OF
expression of countenance. If You take the
trouble to count, you will find that it happens
some two hundred times between East Albany
and Thirty First street. 1t looks like rather a
useless ceremony, at first glance, but it is a
pretty important one, nevertheless.
There are 225 of these flag men" stationed
at intervals along the whole length of the line.
Just before train is to pass, each one walks
over his Cheat" and looks to see that every track
and tie, every tunnel switch, rail, clamp and
rivet, is in good order and free from obstruction
If so, he takes his stand with white flag and
waves it to the approaching train as a signel to
"come on'-and come on it does at full speed.
Ifthere is any thing wrong, he waves red flag,
or at night red lamp, and the engineer on see
ing it promptly shuts off the steam, and sounds
the whistle to "put down the breaks" Every
inch of the road is carefully examined after the
passage of each train. Austrian espionage is
hardly more strict. With such an effective po-
lice, accidents from Instructions upon the track
become almost impossible, unless there is gross
negligence on the part of the watchmen.-Ere-

New AND DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT on THE
BANK OF TENNEssEE.-A few days ago 500 bills
on the Bank of Tennessee, were passing in Ne
MINI county, East Tennessee, by some men
protesting to reside in Kentucky. They were
pursued to Bradley county, arrested and lodged
in jail-four in number-and $1,000 of these
counterfeit $50 notes were found upon them.
One Of these bills has been placed in our
hands for inspection. Upon comparison with a
genuine bill, it will be seen that the Presidents
signature is not well initiated. The stars in the
dress of the female figure on the right of the
plate, are indistinct. The drapery of the fe-
male figure at the top of the bill is paler than
in the genuine. The dot over the / in the word
''will in the face of the bill is placed too far to
the left. There are other differences which, up
on close inspection, show the counterfeit; but
the bill is nevertheless well calculated to de-
ceive.-NdSh. Banner.

JOKES DIVISION, No. II

JONES DIVISION, NO. -, D OF L.
In view of the near approach of the time of
our election for members Of the Legislature, it
is duty that we owe to the community and
ourselves, as Sons of Temperance, that we
should make known, the principles that shosld
govern us and the ground upon which we viii
act.
1t is fact that cannot be successfully contro-
verted, that q large amount eff the tax that we
pay, is caused by the use of Liquor retailed at
the licensed Doggeries, large amount of TIE
violation of the penal laws of the STATE if ira
ced back will be found to eminate from the sys-
tenn Of retailing spurious liquors.
Indeed we are compelled to believe from the
lights before us,that all the Ignorance, Paupersns
Wretchedness, Sabbath Breaking, Theft and
Murder, that is committed and that fills and oc-
cupies the time of our courts, and takes the
community, are the legitimate offspring of this
unholy traffic,
We feel assured that many Of the widows and
orphans in our land, are made so by the debas=
ing retail system. Volumes would not suffice
to record the horrid evils that follow in the train,
and hence we believe it unjust and oppressive
in the highest degree, for the sober, Industrious
and order loving portion or the community, to
be taxed, both in time and money to sustain the
He'll born traffic.
Therefore, it is resolved by this Division that
we unite most cordially with our brethren and
all good citizens of the State, in protesting a.
gainst its continuance among as.
ResOlred secondly, that we heartily join in
the prayer of the Conventions at Knoxville and
Nashville to the next Legislature, TO pass some
law the Maine Law or something like it, to
shield and protect us from the evils attendant
upon the accursed and terrible traffic.
ResOlred, That in the event the Legislature
refuse to pass prohibitory law that we petit
ton that body to pass some law empowering
the people to meet at their respective voting
places and determine by vote, for themselves
whether they viii have this enormous evil in
their midst any longer or not; and if that can
not be done we recommend respectively to their
consideration, the propriety and necessity, of
Oh llCSuSe u INO HuuuTeu
or making the vender liable for all the crime
and cost that may be traced to his traffic.
ResOlred, That we pledge ourselves to one
another, to use our best exertions and Judgment
in bringing out candidates, and voting for such
as will pledge themselves to sustain the princi-
Piles set forth in this preamble and resolutions.
Resolred, That our Recording Scribe spread
this preamble and resolutions in his book and
furnish the jacksonville and other Divisions of
the county, with a copy of the same and ask
their cooperation in this great and glorious
cause ''the cause of all mankind"
Resolred, That these Preamble and Resolu-
tons be published in The "Loudon Free Press
the Knoxville Whig," and all other papers
friendly to the cause. By order of the Divis-
