Cons PRoTEcTioN OF YOUNG DEER
An old Canadian hunter declares
that the reason Why the wild deer
were not all killed when young Gas
they breed II ce IA year and are al
ways surrounded by other animals
which prey upon them, asdogs, wolves,
bears. panthcrs, etc.) is that nm dog
or other animal can smell The track Of a
doe or fawn. while the latter is too
young TO take care of itself!' He
stated hat he had often seen it dem.
onstra,ed. He had taken his dogs
over the ground when he had just
before seen them pass, and they would
take no notice of the track, and could
not be induced to follow when taken
to the spot while they would Instantly
discover the track of any deer not
having young ones. This is bu, m.
proof of the adoption Of the natural
laws to preserve life whom il mos,

GOV. HARRIS AND THE CURREN'
CY.
The Memphis Appeal reports Gov.
Harris as saying in his late speech in
that city that soon after he had enter
ed upon bis term Of Office, a CONNER
cinI revuIsion had taken place, which
had been produced, as he believed, by
an eXtravagant system CT bank cred
its, resulting in the pros.ration of bus
mess. lie had recommended, and the
Legislature had substantially adopted
n system of reforms, Of which we had
lust seen the first fruits. There was
now more coin in circulation, than
aver before in this State, and for the
first time Exchanges are in favor Of
Tennessee. Tennessee bonds are no
longer pcddlcd about the markets Of
the world at from 60 TO IS cents, but
the reforms adopted had raised the
price Of bonds to %, with an upward
tendency and a certainty Of being at
par. Our ovcrtrading had shocked
the confidence of the world, and the
check given to this ovcrtradIng, by
these reforms, has brought about the
improvement.
The Democratic party are pledged
to carrying forward these reforms,
and to throwing such restrictions
around every bank as Shall make the
notc.holdcr safe. They were pledged
not 70 consent TO the rccharLcr Of any
bank without the additional condi.
ton that the Legislature sllrll re-.
serve the power TO change, modify or
abolish the charters of these inStitu.
tons whenever the public good shall
demand. Just here was the differ.
nee between his position and that Of
his competitor. lis competitor docs
not agree to the reservation Of such II
powcr, and pgoicsscG not to Wndcr>
sand his position, but, he believed,
because he did not wish to do so, as
any man who would listen to him
could do, beyond the possibility Of
miSapprchcn>ion.
He was opposed to re cnacting any
bank charter now in existence in Ten.

charters are not sufficiently guarded.
lie was equally opposed to %rcchnr'cr-

State to alter or ab0llsl. their charters,
he should intcrpoSc no opposition, pro-
yidcd the time had arrived to supply

all points Of the earth. England, whose terri
Tory and people extend all over the globe, upon
whose dominioDs, it is boosted, the cum never sets
and throughout whose empire the receille it was
once said, can be heard from one military post
to another, has no great event in her history
which evokes the universal enthusiasm of her
children, wherever they may be, on any particu.
lar anniversary. France, Germany, Italy and
other nations, though the traditions and chroni-
cles of each have recorded come proud events,
have no day like our Fourth Of July to grow iubi.

But wherever an American family is sojourning,
tnat day finds a patriotic response within th.
household. Wherever the American nation is
officially represented, the Declaration of Iude
pendence and the glorious memories which c.us
ter around the deeds that halow It, and the men
who sealed their couutry's freedom with their
signs manual upon its face. are toasted with hilar
ity and love and pride. In whatever haroor 40

We have already recorded the celebration o

wraps the sweet lakes OF Killarney, amid the
