may be repealed or.modlfed. The only
limitation imposed upon the power Of
Legislature to repeal existing laws Is
that the repeal shall not divcst vested
rights, and shall not impair the obliga.
ton ol the contract.
Does the post ponement OF the lien in
this case do either?
AS has already been stated, the credi.
tor has no vested right IN the security
which tho surety holds. He has mere
ly an equity to be subrogated to them if
they exist and as they exist; and q
change of security which the surety re.
CARDS as beneficial and affordng addi.
tional idemnity cannot, in any sense, be
regarded as iml'airng any right which
the creditor has aud still less can il be
considered a vesi cd right,
Neither does a pos'ponelrent impair
the obligation olthe cuuIracl; for The
contract of the hnnlaoidrr is in The
bond, and the Obligation Of hat is no,
impaired, but is recognized, and add,
tional protection is sought TO be given
to it,
The practice Of he State has also
been in conformity TO the views here
expressed.
In 1898, when guaranteeing the
bonds orthe Louisville and Cincinnati,
Railroad Company, the State imposed 8
statutory mortgage as indemnity. and tc
that lien postponed all other debts
which the company hen owed
And when, i'll lSG5, the State author
lied the the Charleston and Savannah
Railroad Company 10 ,ssnc now bond;
for the repair and construction Of tn.
road, she postponed hrr lien, and mad,
it Il second mcnmbrantr, and this with
out tie assent Of the boniholdcrs being
required.
My. opinion is Tint the State has
right to postpone her lien and subordi
nate it to the mort gage to be executed
TO secure the bonds authorized bv tn,
act now proposed by the prcscn, Legisla
ture.

SPARE N NloDIENTs.-"tSpare moments
are the gold dust of time" When
Queen Elizabeth lay upon her dying
bed, she cried in the deepest sorrow
and anguish, "Millions of money would
| give for an inch Of time" At that
moment sho would have offered her
gold, diamonds, or power, moro than
she ever before possessed, who would
have borne to her the nows Of splen-
did victory, or paid the most delicate
compliment, would have been thrust
aside to make room for any one who
could have prolonged even for an hour
the life of the dying Queen. Time is
is priceless gift of God to weak hu-
manty. We are placed in this world
for a purpose, and time is given US to
fulfill our allotted task. IF we act in
unison with the Almighty, we find
that not one moment need be unem-
ployed. The service of God, the i'm.
provement af our talents, and the
bestowal of charity upon those less fa-
vored than ourselves, will fill up every
inch of time. AS the minute parti.
cles of which gold dust is composed
glitter in tho light of the sun, so shall
tho apparently Insignificant actions
which occupy a moment brighten tho
page of our lives, when the powerful
light of the dissolving element shall
expose it to the scrutiny of the ALL
seeing Judge. In-yiew of such time
should We not gather up the fragments
the minutes--aye, tho seconds : AS
short a time, will suffice to say that
which may save another from commit
ting sin as would be occupied in mo-
mentarily gratifying ourselves. We
cannot calculate the ultimate value Of
hours and minutes, but wc know that
as gold dust carefully gathered be
comes valuable, SO we may expect to
become the happy roapers of nm inval'
liable treasure harvest, If we faithful
ly garner and cherishtime's golden
fragmcnt.-Kansas Farmer. y

A Brussels letter says: "The EN-.
press Carlotta has been for the last
two months in o calm state, and has
become extremely inactive. Often
she does not get up at all, but passes
two days in bed. In consequence she
is getting extraordinarily stout. When
she is urged to got up, she almost in
variably replies that as the pictures
want to run away, she ia Obliged to
watch them.''

pass bills every now and then giving
pardons to specially named individu-
ais. This course is pursued for pur-
pose baser and more vile than mere
politics. Not alone that they are thus
enabled to drum up recruits for the
Republican party in the South, by ex-
Guiding all who lean to the Democratic
party from the privilege of amnesty.
The chief object is to keep open the
door for corruption and bribery. A
general amnesty would yield no
money.
The amount of pine lumber still re-
naming in Michigan is a matter OF
much importance. Men familiar with
the subject estimate that the total OF
the lumber manufactured in the State
up to the close of 1869 was Z, 200, 900, 600
feet, involving the stripping of 1,920,-
600 acres of pine land, and that 4,G00,-
900 still remain with standing timber,
which will yield $4,000, 900, 600 feet OF
lumber. The total value of the future
product in lumber, shingles, lath, ETC.,
is placed at $3OO,0O0, 900, and careful
observers think that within fifteen or
twenty years it will have been wholly
cut and marketed.

The Cost Of the War.

Commissioner Wells, in his report,
presented to Congress, gives an estl-
mate OF the cost Of the war. The Gov
ernment spent, in war expenses and
expenses growing cut OF the war,
down to June 30, 1859, S4,l7l ,9l4, ,49S.
This excludes what the administTa-
ton would have cost had there been
no war, and may he called the net
cost to the Government of the war.
To this, however, must be added a
number of items, which Mr.. Wells
gives thus:

army in the field are in favor Of

An examination has disclosed the
fact that each member of Congress
has had over four tons of books and
documents to send out under his

the people are petitioning for an abe

1 seven hundred thousand dollars are
drawn from the treasury each year by
this franking process.

NASHVILLE, December Il.
Neither branch OF the Legislature
was in session to-day. Most Of the
members have gone home, and there
viii be no more legislation until after
the holidays.
Additional returns from the recent
election indicate still more strongly
the result telegraphed you yesterday.
The election in Middle and West
Tennessee Of Conservatives was the
only result shown, and also that there
was but trifiing opposition. A. 0. p.
Nicholson was elected from Maury

Matt Martin from Coffee, George c.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH.
NASHVILLE, December 2l. = The
steam fire engine Hamilton, while on
its way to a fire this morning, ran
into a switch locomotive on the Lou

threw the firemen of, seriously but
not mOrtally wounding Henry c.

The returns OF the vote on the Con-

was all one way outside Of East Tenn
essee, where the only organized Oppo-
sition was manifested. The total
vote viii probably be near twO-thirds
of that cast last August for Governor.
