Times Conquests.

"Ono generation passcth aud another
comcth," Time, with his relentless
hand, scatters the flowers Of youth and
the frosts Of age and hides them both
alike in the grave. His wheels roll swift
ly on, bearing alike the young and the
old to the dim land Of unseen and un.
tried futurity. The king upon the
throne, wearing upon his brow the re-
gal diadem, and holding In bis hands
the reius Of government, yields to his
stern commands, lays down his sceprc
and his crown, and wrupt in lus wind
ing sheet, he mingles with his mother
earth. llaughty aud humble, rich and
poor go back to the dust frcm whence
they came, aud the earth still moves on
in silent grandeur around the great ccn-
tral power of attraction, tho stars still
glinnleri in the other blue, sumner and
winter, seed time aud harvest cone in
thcir appoiptcd season, all alike nm
mindful of joy aud sorrow, of life and
death.

Frank blair.

Gen. Frank Blair addressed the New
York Democracy on the evening of the
Sth and was enthusiastically received.
He congratulated them on their recent
victory in the State, but urged upon
them the necessity OF iuscribhg homes
ty on their banner. without honesty
their victory would not only be barren
OF results in this State, but would lead
10 positive injury in the other Statcs,---
He warned them not to consider Grant
fool. The President was an obstinate
man who would have his own way, and,
after the four years Of his administra-
tion had passed, would give ample eyi-
dcnco Of his obstinacy.

The Bank of Tennessee.

We find the following in the Lcgisla-
tive proceedings Of the Sth instant:
Mr. Barry presented Il communica.
ton from Judge Watson, Trustee Of the
Bank of Tennessec. in response to II
resolution Of the House asking inior-
nation rs to the assets and liabilities of
the Bank. Judge Watson says il is al
most impossible TO make a reliable es-
innate OF what is good doubtful and
bad assets of'the Bank. because their
character depends so much upon ques-
tons before the courts but he furnish,
cs, he saws, he says, the best iniorma-
lion in his power. He classes among
the doubtful assets of the Bank the pro-
ceeds Of the S4ih7l9 in gold taken
from the Bank by the State. amounting
now to S77S.995 In currency. He also
classes among the doubtful assets Of the
Bank the S592.3l0 due from the State
for advances made to the Treasurer and
Military Board. He classes the SOFA
494 for loans made South in Confede-
rate money, among the bad debts, but
according TO the recent decision Of the
Supreme Court. he thinks about ten per
cent. of il can be collected. Since the
date Of his last report he has collected
S33Ai3. leaving the issues OF the Bank
now outstanding, exclusive Of the Tor
bett issue and fractional currency, So
is6,269.
a bill was subsequently introduced
in the House and passed u first reading,
which provides that the old issue of the
Bank shall pass current IN the payment
Of debts to the State that members of
the Legislature and all other State Off
cials may be paid in said currency.
