USURY LAWS.

Our Memphis and Nashville exchanges
are discussing the repeal or amendment
OF the present usury laws. As the law
now stands, it only operates to drive
money out of the country. 1t is folly to
tell people that money is only worth six
per cent, when anybody will give ten,
and it is folly to keep a law standing on
cur statute books which only opei ates
injuriously. Does the usury law give
anybody money at six per cent? Not
that any one has ever heard of. Money
is worth all Of ten per cent now, and
seldom, if ever, can be obtained for less.
United States bonds pay more than six
per cent interest; and the law compell-
ing men to lend money to their fellow
citizens at six per cent, simply drives
them into the purchase of United States
bonds, which pay more. Repeal the
law, or amend it SO as to make the legal
rate Of interest ten per cent
Every man ought to know what he
can afford to pay for the use of money,
and, if he does not, little experience
will soon teach him.
1t occurs TO US that money would
regulate its own price as readily and as
satisfactorily as any other representa-
tive Of value. Everything else that we
handle goes upon the market at Just
whatever it will bring. So let it be with
our money. 1t is time the American
people were getting sharp enough to look
out for themselves in all business trans

A FIGHT WIrHIIONs

Mr.. Lucas, the lion tanner, had a mars
row escape of being eaten by his lions,
August 20, at the hippodrome in Paris.
He went into the cage where there were
two liOnesses, with only a whip in his
hand, instead of a heavy cudgel which
he generally carries. A lioness, presu-
ming upon his being unarmed, sprang at
him and seized him by the nape of the
neck. A cry of horror arose from the
spectators. Many women tainted, and
others rushed out Of the theatre. The
other lions, attracted by blood, rushed
upon Lucas, and bit and scratched him
severely. In few moments he would
certainly have been killed had not one Of
his assistants, who was not in the habit
of entering the cage, came forward
and knocked the lion about the head with
an iron bar. 1t is reported that Lucas
said to him, "GO away, leave me to die
alone" However that may be, the man
dragged Lucas away from the lions. He
is now at his mother-inslaw's house, No
81 Avenue Montague, in a most preca-
riOus state. The doctors have discov,
cred no less than thirty.o one wounds. II
is feared that even should he recover, he
will be a cripple for life. The heroism
of the man by whom he was rescued i:
the theme of enthusiastic praises. Mr.
Arnaud, manager of the hippOdrome
had the presence Of mind to close tn
door of the cage when the faithful ser
want got Mr.. Lucas out of it, otherwis
the lions might have made raid upOl
the audiAnce.

to be in? Who talks Of winding up those
blood-sneaking concerns, the national
banks of paying the bondholders in
greenbacks, and not in gold; of reducing
the national expenses and putting an
end to useless extravaganza None but
Democrats do this, and those who
oppose them, from tbs best of reasons
have just cause to fear. The party is
now after them with poised spear and
sharpened knife, and they know and feel
that unless something desperate is done,
the whole fungus growth will be hewn
down and the country swept from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, from the lakes to
the gull. California has just given them
a scare, and Ohio with Pendleton in the
field, will send them to the wall. No, no,

party has no existence, knowing better,

RICHMOND, Va. Sept. 14.-By the pro-
visions Of new cons tuition, the stay law il
abrogated and the Legislature is prohibii-
ed from passing any law to stay the collec-
ton of debts. This will bring most of the
land property in the State under the ham
mer Of the Sheriff, as soon as the State is
reconstructed and the new constitution
becomes the Law. 1t will be a source of
much hardship to all who owe heavy
debts, and have large judgments recorded
against them. A large portion of Ihs judg-
ments are in favor of Northern creditors
against merchants who in turn hold iudg.
ments against the farmers.

THE Western and Atlantic railroad,
belonging to the State of Georgia, is not
run so much to make big dividends as
to develop the wealth and industry OF
the State, and it has a wonderful effect.
Thus, last winter it carried coal for one
fifth the old rates, yet the revenue from
this source was larger than ever before,
and not only was the starting Of
new branches of business encouraged
but two hundred thousand dollars were
saved to the people Of Atlanta, Augusta
and Macon by the reduced price Of coal.
