EMIGRATION FROM TENNESSEE.


4 correspondent of the New York
Herald, writing from Chattanooga, says:
Zone of the first things that casual
observer notices in this city is the num-
Der of emigrants passing through here on
their way to Arkansas and Texas. They
are chiefly from East Tennessee and
Northern Georgia and Alabama, and
generally belong to the class commonly
known as poor whites. One sees them
every day at the general depot of The
several roads CGntering here, keeping watch
over their trunks and piles of household
| goods while they wait the departure OF
tie trains on the Memphis and Charleston
railroad for the first-mentioned city, at
which point they usually take steamboat
for the further West.
What is here reported of East Tennes
see is equally true of the middle division
of the State. Why is it that so many are
leaving Tennessee 60 find homes in the
West Simply because they can get cheap
lands there The desirable lands in this
State are held at such high figures that
men of moderate means find themselves
unable to buy. This is undoubtedly the
cause of so many leaving the State. While
We are making efforts to attract immigra-
ton, we should do something to prevent
the heavy exodus of or population that
has been gong on during the present fail

GEN. GARFIELD, of Ohio, and several
other Republican members of Congress
from the West, who have heretofore been
in favor of contracting the volume of the
currency, are now reported as expressing
themselves in favor Of 4 speedy resump-
ton of specie payments. The Washing
