SOME popular complaint has been
made because OF the hardness OF the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
in paying its employees and because OF
the reduction of the hours OF work in
the railroad shops, the impression being
that the currency suspension does not
affect the revenues of the road. We
are satisfied, however, that upon a pro-
per understanding Of the facts it will be
found that the complaint ares scarcely
just.
In explanation OF the scarcity OF
money to meet the payroll OF tie
company, it Is stated that most OF the
large shippers pay freight charges by
checks upon the banks and that the
banks refuse payment in currency, and
thus large portion Of the monthly re-
ceipts are locked up and render
ed unavailable. In addition TO
this, five millions OF the ster'
ling loan recently effected by
Mr.. GARRETT in England is now in
New York upsold, because the balance
OF foreign trade is in our favor and no
person wants to buy European Ex-
change at this time. In addition to
this, other railroad companies which
are indebted to the Baltimore and Ohio
company for transportation OF through
freights or for rent Of track, cars. &c.
are remiss in their payments. So that
nearly all OF the currency income OF
the company is that which is derived
from the sale OF tickets alone
We are also assured that so great
has been the anxiety OF the COM
pany to keep its men employed and
provide funds for their payment, that
portion OF the currency with which
|
the September payroll, amounting to
1851, coo, has been recently discharged,
was only obtained by the payment
CT one per cent premium
Under these circumstances it must he
admitted that the officers OF the COM
pauy should be exonerated from blame
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad dis
tributes monthly in West Virginia a
large amount OF money, and its efforts
to avoid suspension OF payment and to
give to its large number OF employees
enough work to keep the wolf from
their doors during the coming winter
should he duly understood and ap-
preciatei by our people.

Dry Goods Coming Gown

The panic has had the effect TO bring
down prices in dry goods as well as in
every thing else in New York, and A.
T. Stewart has taken the lead in mar
king down prices. The CommerCjM Nd
vcrti5cr says:
This firm has marked down lirst-Cass
goods OF all kinds at astonishing low
figures. Money must be circulated.
There is enough of it, but confidence is
wanting. Panic prices" in dry goods is
happy move, and will most certainly
draw the attention of the public. Cloth
ing is always wanted, and must be had,
and particularly at this season OF the
year. In the department OF dress goods
we noticed large invoice Of satines, all
wool Empress cloths, camel's hair
cloths, FreIc Gu marines, Scotch tarlet-
ans, and eashemIres in grea varieties.
These wooden goods make UP beaU'i-
fully; and, when handsomely trimmed,
the toilet is equal in elegance and effect
to a costly bonnet silk or a silk-ye!yst
dress. There is a time for all things"
and go we find that in the beau monde
wooden materials are preferred for
street wear, and silk fabrics Except
black silky have become more of 3
house article for the Fall, and psrtic-
ularly Tor the winter season.
Housekeepers should be interested in
the great sacrifice made in blankets,
counterpanes, and all sorts of carpets;
also, upholstery goods. These necesss-
ry and ever.usetul articles are offered
to the public at remarkably attractive
prCes.

THE WESTERN UNION TELE-
GRAPH COMPANY.

1t is stated in the New York Times
that's party of ten capitalists has been
formed to buy up fifty thousand shares
o; Western Union Telegraph stock.
English capitalists are said to be chic"
~ interested in this movement, and it
is reported they hare bought and paid
for the amount OF stock they agreed TO
purchase. The buyers are anxious 10
buy Commodore Vanderbilt stock,
but it seems difficult to agree rs 10 price.
The object Of these men in buying up
Western Union is said to be that the
property OF the company shall be Of
fered to the government at about par,
in order 10 bring about the English
system Of governmeut postal telegraphs
The Western Union monopoly is bad
enough, and legislation ought to be Sc
cured which would break its power, by
the charter and building OF other lines
in competition, which should be pro-
hibited from consolidating with it, or
coming under its management, but the
American people do not desire the
good Offices OF the Euglishmen to hand
over the telegraph system in this re-
publican country to the government.

ture cannot be foretold; but it is worse
than folly for men TO cast dlstrust upon
their acknowledges suspicious into
the ears OF others, and act as though
both the moral and material interests Of
the country were going TO ruin. Faith 10
the honor and integrity Of men, and
faith in the stability OF the government,
will serve to calm groundless fears, and
allay poplar excitement. Conscience
must also have full play. Too many
men are disposed, in times like these,
to prey upon the misfortunes Of others.
Money is kept unemployed Tor weeks
waiting for a chance TO corner some
unfortunate person and deprive him OF
his property. All such acts should be
discountenauced, because they are OPP
pressiye and dishonest, and calcula,
ted to perpetuate the evils from which
we suffer. That the interruption is but
temporary, is the judgment OF our most
shrewd and far seeing business men,
aud this view is confirmed in various
ways. To get back to our accustomed
prosperity it is only necessary to restore
the currency to its wonted channels,
and all who have or control money can
do something to that end if they will
only pursue just sensible course.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.

We copy elsewhere, from the Pitts
hurgh Commercial, an account OF the
condition of the manufacturing enter
prises OF the city. The interests Of
Pittsburgh and Wheeling, as manufac-
turing cities, are so nearly identical as
TO make anything relating to the az
fairs OF the former of interest to our
citizens We insert here the closing
paragraph Of orr cotemporary's arti-
c'e:
In the mes0iimt, much can lie done
towards relieving the s.raiu, if straight
forward, sensible course is pursued, ly
a! concerned. The banks should SUE
tain, H. tar a. IL their power. the bus
mess meu and manufacturers, and all
who have money in excess Of their
wants should stand 10y the banks, that
they may be tie better able 10 help
those dependent upou them. Bankers
should remember that in this city there
aye Ii ty dollars invested in machinery
10 every dollar held in bank stocks,
and that a large amount OF the bank.
Ing capital is made up OF the profits OF
manufacturing. The interests OF
bankers and manufacturers are
therefore identical, and mutually
dependent When business is prosper.
ous, the banks obtain the use Of the sur.
plus earnings of manufacturers and
when panic occurs, the monetary in
sti,ulions should deal as lenientlv as
possible with the manufacturers, and
give them all the accommodation in
their power No reputable banker will,
in time like this, take advantage Of
the necessities OF business msn, by de.
nauding exorbitant rates, or refusing to
discount when he has the means. So
creditors should deal irdulsentlv with
solvent debtors and help them 10 ride
over the breakers; rather than seek to
drive hard bargains. or avail them
selves OF the short turns Of the law.
Now is the time to exercise both faith
and conscience. Men must have conf.

The meeting was opened by Prof. Pres
nell as he opens his school reading of
scriptures, singing and prayer. The min
utes of the previous meeting were read
and approved. The questions from the
question box were then taken out and
answered by the teachers. This was most
pleasing and attractive portion of the ex-
ercises.
Prof. DUNCAN, of the eJonesboro, Male
School, illustrated his method of teaching
short division.
Prof Davidson's speech on Teachers
Salaries was taken up. All agreed that
the provisions of our school law on this
subject are humane and just that male
and female teachers, for the same kind and
amount of labor, should receive the same
salary. The arithmetic class is conducted
by G. T. G. Deak. Esq, of Jonesboro'.
"GO To The Front" a paper by Prof
Wells, of Knob Greek, was read, which oc.

MAKING THE ISSUE.


When we exposed the littleJob by which
the Karat Sun turned the Agricultural
Bureau appropriation of ten thousand dol
lars from the farmers of the State to its
own little ring, we expected to stir up
some opposition to the CHRONICLE. A
paper that shows up such "lively rings"
must expect to get blows in return. We
are not disappointed. In our expose of the.
Sun we made no personal attacks upon Mr..
Charlton. We mentioned his connection
with the paper only as far as to give the
facts. IA
We have been furnished by Hon. James
F. Beals, the Representatives in the Legis-
lature, from Blount county, with the fol-
lowing letter. 1t is accompanied by the
explanation following the letter. 1t is as
follows; - h7e
MUDDY CREEK, Tenn,

ESTEEMED FRIEND: Thy note came to
hand yesterday, contents noted. / am not
prepared to answer fully in regard to the
Rural Sun and Knoxville CHRONICLE, /
am, and have been since the paper started,
subscriber to the CHRONICLE. Have ever
read its articles ON East Tennessee with
interest, as well as its general news. am
not at all prepared to take sides for the Sun
as against the CHRONICLE; indeed if it
comes to choice between the papers,
should not hesitate to take the CHRONICLE.
I regarded the: allusion TO political Pa
pers," by friend Griffith, as an unfortu-
nate occurrence at the time, and now am
sure that the conclusions / then came to
were correct.
The articles published in the Sun that
tend to increase the circulation of that
paper in East Tennessee. I very
much doubt whether many that have
subscribed will be entirely satisfied with
the Sun in taking the course it has, The
farmers are a large majority Of the people
of the State and are Democrat and Repub-
lican, white and black, and, L think, a pa
per setting up as farmers paper, should
not admit, in its columns single article
any aoay political IN its nature. Hoping
that this hasty note will be fully under
stood. l am, as ever, thy friend.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: This is a true
copy of letter this day sent to c. w.
Charlton, which alludes to the controversy
between your papers. Do as you like with
it, Very truly, -. +. b.
We can draw but one inference from the
above letter, and that is that the Rural
Sun and its friends have determined to
make war upon the CHRONICLE. Every
slnsible man will please notice the style
in which it is done. The paper has thus
far lot dared to notice our charges. In
stead of making war openly upon us, they
prefer to write letters to those they think
they can turn against us. They struck
flint when they wrote to our friend Beals.
They will strike it everywhere else in East
Tennessee. The CHRONICLE has labored
faithfully for years to build up East Ten
nessee, not only its farmers, but its work
shops, mines, schools, and churches, and
we are not afraid of an issue with such
concern as the Rural Sun. If its friends
want to make the issue, the field is open.
They can make the fight.
