WHAT SHOULD WE PRODUCE

The plentiful crops of1S70 are calculated
to teach our farmers lesson, if they will
pay proper attention. From one end OF
the country to the other, the granaries and
barns of the industrious husbandman
are filed to overlooking. The fruits Of his
toll greet the farmer in rich abundance,
yet we hear him complain of hard times
arising from his inability to realize money
from these fruits. There are no adequate
markets for our superabundance of corn,
wheat, rye, barley oats, &C., &s. Thus,
while we have plenty of these articles of
necessity, we are laboring under the incon-
venienco of tightness in the money mar
ket, and are experiencing what business
men call hard times. The year 1870 has
been more than an average ono, but max
ing all due allowances for this, we ought
to draw q lesson from the "glutted" mar
kets, which would prove useful in the
future. If wo raise largo crops and
realize little money from them we
fail in our object We do not
mean that this is true of the present year
but think it not at all improbable. Then
the question is, what can we produce in
tho largest quantity that will sell the
quickest for the most money. If the pro-
ducton of the cereals, to which the atten-
ton Of East Tennessee farmers has been
almost exclusively turned, will not do it.,
then we ought to turn our attention to
something else that will. Some localities
have soil and climate adapted to certain
staple productions, and can produce moth
ing else. Ours is not of that character.
Our climate ia temperate, and our soil
so diversified as to be adapted 20 the pro-
duction Of grain, fruits and stock of all
kinds. Then, as we are so highly favored
by nature, we should avail ourselves of the
advantages afforded us, and produce what
ever brings us wealth, surely and speedily,
Our farmers have fair opportunity now
for observing this, and will improve il.
They can see what sells the most readily,
and would do we'll to govern themselves
accordingly.

WHAT NEXT =

Gen. Pillow and !. J. Murphy, having
| had judgment for thirty-ive thousand dol
lars rendered against them in the United
States Circuit Court at Memphis Tenn,
for soizing, by military orders and appro-
| priatng to military uses, in 1851, property
regarded as the enemy's property, consist
ing of coal, bargcs, &C., the property of
Coleman, Riddle & Co., of Pittsburgh,
Penn" arc now before the General As
sembly of the State asking for relief In
his petition, Gen. Pillow says he els re-
duced TO poverty by his losses during the
war, and that he was acting under author
ity of the State" He prays the State to
take charge of the case and defend it. He
says plaintiffs are willing TO take State
bonds at par in discharge of said Judgment
The petition has been referred to the Com
mittee on Claims in the House, and order
ed transmitted to the Senate. The Nash
vile Union and american thinks IA the
coal was taken for the State and used by
the State, there can he no doubt that the
State is morally, if not legally, bound to
protect and defend the defendants in this
cause and save them harmless against any
damages which may be imposed by the
Federal Court"
The Democratic Assembly now have the
question fairly before them. Arc we to
pay the claims incurred by the rebellion?
If so, the claim of Pillow is the entering
wedge. Democracy in Tennessee has jus
tilted the rebellion; as far rs possible, glo-
rified and legalized treason, and there is
now but one step further to take, and that
is to pay its debts. The Democratic press
favor it, and the Assembly dare not refuse
is do it, What next?

ANDY JOHNSON INTERVIEWED.

Avery" the correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Commercial, has interviewed Andy
johnson, and gives his views on the pOliti-
cal situation in Andy's usual blunt style
OF the next United States Senator, in re-
ply to a question as to whether Cooper
would get the scat, Mr.. johnson says:
"Well, it's hard TO tell but the Senate being
the sole judge of these matters, l should not be
surprised if they admitted him"
But, according to the State Constitution, is
he not incligibe?"
" Yes, but there is higher power than the
State Constitution to determine these questions
The Constitution Of the United States says that
the Senate shall be the judge of the qualifications
of its own members No State can add any ad-
ditional qualifications. This is the point in
Cooper's case: The law says that the Legisa-
turc of each State which. shall be chosen next
preceding the expiration of the time for which
their Senator was elected to represent them in
Congress, shall choose his successor. This is
done so as to have Senators selected without too
long time intervening between the period that
the Legislature was elected and the time that
the newly elected Senator is to take his seat
As l look at it, the Legislature elected last
August is the one to elect Fowler's successor
They will have been elected seven or eight
months before Fowlers term expires, and rs
understand the law, they are the proper ones to
elect Senator
OF Gov. -elect Brown, johnson had seve-
raj things to say. In commenting upon
Browns calling him 'disaffected NAL
content, and a political harlot," in speech
at Memphis last October. He said
Why should Brown refer to me in such terms ?
Ne malconteAt and disturber2 Who was it
that was creating disturbances in 1872 Was it
l? No, indeed, stood by the Constitution and
the Union then as l do now. l created no dis
turbancc. 1t was those other gentlemen who
became dsaffected macontents and political
harlots. Why should Brown refer to me in such
langurage? had taken no part in the canvass
except TO address the people of Gallatin, as they
urgently requested me 10 do gave them my
views about the platform, and said that did
not believe it was such one rs the times de-
| manded. Why did the Committee on ResOu-
| tons suppress the resolutions that were publish
! ed in the Union and Arcrican wherein it was
| expressly avowed that State had no right TO
! secede? This man Brown, who calls me Il mall
content and political harlot because ] opposed
! the Hvowal of sovereignty and secession in the
! platform, l. the very man who introduced a re-
solution in the Convention Of 1868 CmbOdying
/ the same doctrine and almost the same language
contained in the resolutions which were sup
/ pressed and ignored by the last Convention.
I And yet he calls me a malcontCnt for advOcat-
| ing the very doctrines that he did two years
! ago.

a GENTLEMAN from New York having
seen an advertisement of our proposals to.
publish articles about Tennessee, giving
facts IA to the climate, productions, &C.,
writes to us approving our plan, and says
we have no idea of the number of really
good men who are looking towards East
Tennessee rs a point where they would
like to settle. But, says our correspondent.
there are two things which Tennessee
must do before she can attract immigrants.
She must have good free school system,
and must do away with the petty preiu
dices that 80 many entertain against
Northern men. This is only one of scores
of letters we receive, or hear of every day
in which the same estimate of free schools
is expressed. The truth is, mo really worthy
man with family will leave the free
school system of the North and come here
where he must expend in this very dires-
ton about enough to counterbalance all
the inducements nature enables us to offer,
unless peculiar combination of circum-
stances enable him to disregard utterly
such considerations. Providence has great
ly blessed us with innumerable natural adj
vantages which are the attractions that
draw so many toward us. Will we by our
folly and illiberality so shape our laws and
school system as to counterbalance these
blessings, and make our State a by-word
and reproach? The last census returns
show us in an unfavorable light before the
world and our deficiencies in the educa-
tional system are attracting great attention
all over the land.
In view OF such considerations, arc tho
people to be put off now by our public men
lodging the issue, by their talking about
being in faver of schools? but they want
the State or county to provide for them p
Who has more interest in schools for the
city of Knoxville than the citizens of
Knoxville? Are we to ask the farmers OF
Knox county to aid las in educating our
own children? The city is responsible for
its own police, sanitary, religious and edu-
| cational administration. We can act moro
promptly and more as unit than the
| County or state. We want State system
of schools, and county organization to
make it efficient; but as the State will not
| act, and the county can not as efficiently
| as We can, without the State, we must act
as a corporation, and act at once. Let the
| people take hold and SEQ that we have u
city administration that will give us schools,
and let us drive from public place every
man who opposes it. The time is oppor-
tune, and we ask for every friend of edu-
cation to act, and aid in bringing about
speedily the desired end.

SAN DOMINGO.

The passage of Senator Morton's resolu-
ton providing for the appointment OF
commissioners TO proceed to San Domingo
to investigate and report IA to the condi-
ton and value of tho island, the character
of the inhabitants and their feelings as TO
annexation, passed the Senate on Thurs
day morning, after n heated, protracted
night session, by O vote of IS to 0. During
the debate which was exceedingly acri-
monious, very bitter feeling of hostility
to the measure and personally to the Pres
ident, was manifested by Senator Sumner.
whose structures upon the motives aud ac-
ton of the President in the premises were
uncalled for, and we believe unjust. We
know that very wide difference of opin-
lon among the very best men in the Re-
publican party and In the country prevails
as to the policy of the purchase, but such
differences do not call for the bitterness
and elimination which il has already oc-
casioned. It s at the worst, a measure
calling for only an honest difference of
opinion among tho friends of the Adj
ministration, and ia not of sufficient
importance to merit rupture between
such prominent leaders of the party as
Sumner, Patterson and Morrelfon the one
side and the President and Morton on tho
other. We cannot believe that the Presi-
dent is guilty of the charge preferred 10y
Mr.. Sumner, and we cannot see that he
is justified in provoking such n contest as
he did on Thursday. The passage Of Nor
toms resolution by a vote of IS to 8, shows
clearly that the Senate did not endorse
Mr.. Summers speech.
Now that the Commissioners are to be
appointed, we trust they will be the very
best men in the land, and that they will
give the whole subject full, fair and i'm
partial investigation, and report to the end
that, if there are are any valid objections
to the annexation, the country may know
them and Congress may act under full in
formation.

KNOXVILLE RAILROADS.

The City Council of Louisville have
adopted an ordinance, to DO voted upon by
the qualified voters of the city in not less
than twenty nor more than thirty days,
giving to the Cumberland and Ohio Rail-
road Company $4,000, 900 to aid In its COM
pletion. The road referred to IL an airline
railroad from Louisville to Chattanooga,
via Sparta, Tenn. In addition to the sum
to be given by Louisville, 2,O0O,0 900 have
been voted by tho counties in Kentucky
through which the road passes, and 81 ,OO0,-
600 are pledged by counties in Tennessee.
This gives the road 100000, which is
claimed by it's friends sufficient to com
plete Ii. 1t will be road eighty miles
shorter than the present line via Louis
Vile and Nashville and Nashville and
Chattanooga Railroads, and is earnestly
advocated by the merchants and manufac-
turers of Louisville. Tho Couriev-Josr-
nal gives the secret of the movement in
its declaration that the road must be 6uit
at once to defeat, if possible, the long
talked Of Cincinnati and Chattanooga
road
The point which is of interest to us Is,
what influence will this project have upon
our Louisville and Knoxville Road, and
what il there we can do to advance our
claims?
The Louisville and Nashville Road will,
of course, fight this new rival route rs
hard as possible, and unless some care is
taken, may divert attention and energy
from our road to battling their rival. Our
interests are of such character as to be
prejudiced by this new contest, unless
closely watched. Our Board of Trade has
provided for the appointmentofa Commit
tee to go to Louisville. and urge upon that
city, and particularly the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad, the importance Of
availing themselves Of the opportunity the
sale of the Knoxville and Kentucky Rail-
road will afford. If this committee acts
promptly and efficiently, the agitation
now prevailing in Louisville may be profit
ably used in our behalf. In the mean
time, we have to suggest TO the officers Of
tho Knoxville and Kentucky Railroad
Attorney General ofthe State, and prompt
ly present to the Courts an agreed case
which would, without prejudice to the
rights of stockholders, speedily obtain
such an adjudication as will guarantee to
purchasers "a title beyond question, the
terially advanced. Whatever we do let us
do promptly, for delay may prejudice our
interests for all time to come.
