The leading machinists in New York, Phila-

done only after the most thorough and careful

The Chattanooga Republican is pleased
to learn that Mr. Bryant, worthy French
gentleman has purchased lands:On Mis-
sionary ridge, and that it is intended to
locate on that ridge, colony of French
winegrowers There is probably no
place in the United States moro admirably
fitted for growing the vine than the
southern side of Missionary ridge and
more lovely scenery than is psesented by
this ridge, and the valley at its base can
nowhere be found. If our land owners
are wise they will sell the land on very
liberal terms-giving long time fOr
payment, as the Improvements made and
the enhanced value of adjacent lands viii
be sufficient compensation.

note., it was folly to talk about paving

notes, it was folly to talk about paying
bonds in gold.
Also, that the question of the mode of
paying the bonds will become important
only by the continuance Of deprecated
currency. Without taking steps to i'm
prove, but to take the surplus gold 10 the
Treasury and apply it to the purchase of
bonds in the market, which will not fall
due for fourteen years, would not be pay

would be an improper use of means by
which the paper of the government over
