ENCOURAGING TO EAST TENNESSEE.

The protection American iron men want
is against the pauper labor system of Eu-
rope. The recent strikes in England have
resulted in advancing the price Of labor
nearly twice what it was a year ago.
There is still trouble in the mining re-
gions. The result, Of course, is an adj
vance in the price of iron in England. If
these advances continue until English
workmen shall be paid fair prices for
their labor, we shall not need any
tariff. AS it is now, these troubles
in England, added to the increased de-
mand for iron here, have given new hope
to our iron men. We referred to this sub
ject few days since, and do so again only
to incite those interested in iron enter
prises in East Tennessee to new exertions.
We see from our local exchanges from
Greene and Washington counties that the
iron men Of that section are doubling the
capacity of their furnaces, with some pros
pect of new enterprises in the same in
dustry.
The result of these encouraging in
fiuenees will be not only to spur up
those of our people already engaged in
this work, but to invite to our Sec
ton capitalists from Pennsylvania and
other iron sections. We have unsurpassed
facilities here for producing iron and the
prospect of an advance likely to last foS
some time will enlist capital and skill now
employed in other branches of industry.
We think the prospect is that the pres
ent advance will last for some time. 1t is
hardly possible to force wages in the iron
districts of England baUh 30 tI4e- OLD stand
ard. Men who have for years been OPP
pressed with half living wages, will
not, if it is possible to avoid it,
go back from the present advance
to the trials and anxieties of the old
wages. We hope, therefore, that the pres
ent hopeful promises may be fully realized,
and that we may soon see the long predict
ed smoke of the furnace and hear the long
promised ring of the anvils throughout
the coal and iron valleys Of East Tennes-
see. Then indeed will we see our tow ms and
cities prosper and our hills and plains bios
som and become fruitful as the garden.

NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN.

General Grants administration has had
the courage to expose and punish the little
corruption that has tainted it. Mr.. Lin
coin was too much engrossed with the
great responsibilities of the war to look
especially after corruption, and Pierce,
Buchanan and Johnson had not the cour-
age to deal with the rascals that infested
public places under them. Of late, there
fore, the country has had the first example
of Furnishing and exposing frauds.
The consequence is that Democratic
papers are now teeming with articles
about corruption. We have no inten-
tentiOn to appear as the apologists
for corruption. We admit it exists now
in the public service and we fear it always
will exist. We do claim, however, that
wherever it is found now it is rooted out
and punished. It is not, however, con-
fined to any one party. On the contrary,
we believe it is protected by the Democ-
racy. Recent Investigations in New York
have brought out new frauds in the Tam
many ring. The Post puts it thus: I" The
committee report that from May, 1867, to
July, 1871, the Collector Of Assessments
received from the city, as fees for his dep
uties, nearly six hundred thousand dol
lars. They find that the entire duties of
the office were performed by the Collector
and four or five clerks, whose fees together
do not amount to eleven thousand dollars
per year. Consequently, more than half
million of dollars have been paid to the
deputy collectors" who have done no
service at all, according to the Collector of
Assessments himself.
The list of these deputies tells the rest
of the story. Among them appear the ia
miliar names of William NJ. Tweed. Henry
Smith, James NJ. Sweeney, HenryW. Genet
and A. d. Barber. Imagine these men
going about among our citizen passing
judgment upon the value of their taxable
property or doing clerical work at the
moderate fees usually allowed by law for
such services. Tweed, as usual, gets the
lions share, his " fees being one hundred
thousand dollars. Smith and Barber were
treated to equal amounts-sixty-f1ve thou
sand each. Sweeney got fifty-nine thou
sand dollars. The remainder went to diff
ferent clerks" who were unknown in
the Office, except twenty-seven thousand
dollars, which went to the credit of poll
teal purposes"

THE SUPREME JuDGEsHIP.

The Democratic press throughout the
State seem to have discovered wonderful
Judicial capacity, beneath the somewhat
uncouth exterior of our friend Burch
Cooke, and with one accord they pro-
nounce him just the man for the Supreme
Bench.
The Banner says he "has been solicited
by the press in various portions of the
State to become candidate" &c. That
journal concludes very fattering notice
of Burch as follows:
He is a gentleman Of commanding presence
and acknowledged ability, and has a host of
friends not only in East Tennessee but in the
other Grand Divisions of the State, who will
labor zealously for his support should he re-
spond to the repeated calls of his friends and
announce himself candidate for position.
AS a matter Of course, this is disinter-
ested notice, called out by the pecu-
liar merits of the subject. We
won't insinuate that any suits are
ever to be decided in the Supreme Court,
in which anybody wants some one of the
bench to be under obligations to them.
This would be all wrong. We suggest,
however, that it be made known at once
that "Barkis is wiIlin',n which will re-
lieve the suspense, which has rendered the
"pressT so solicitous about the PerSonroe ]
of the Supreme bench.

and it is curious fact that in many parts of the

the first named disease.
In all these masked cases of aguefor such they

By reference to a communication in
another column giving an account of a
geological survey by Professor Bradley's
class at the University, it will be seen that
the caverns which lie underneath our city,
are accounted for on natural principles.
We trust our readers will peruse what our
correspondent says, and then dismiss all
unnecessary fears as to what might be the
result, should Knoxville experience a
severe earthquake shock. We alluded to
these caverns lightly some time since.
Our contemporaries throughout the coun-
try have made it serious matter, and
treated it with great gravity. We can tell
them that our people rest just as easily and
sleep just as composedly as if the city was
built upon a rock.
