About Our Interest Laws.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: / should be glad
to see discussed in your columns the ques-
ton Of interest, or rather,the incongruity
of the laws regulating interest on judy
ments land debts contracted before the
ten per cent. law was made and loans SUBJ
sequently effected or the prevailing rate
which has, | believe, more than once been
adverted to in your editorials.
/ do not now propose moving the repeal
of the ten per cent law, which is subject
prolific of discussion, but simply to invite
attention to the injustice wrought by the
singular discrepancy in our statutes re
garding the premium on money and the
so-called illegal raten accruing upon notes
past due, when the rate has not been stip-
ulated, offering premium to the dishon-
est debtor, whose conscience will not per-
NIT him defrauding an indulgent creditor.
To illustrate y. sold to b. real estate A,
rs part of the consideration b. executes a
promissory note due twelve months or
two years after date, or after possession Of
property The bargainur, relying upon
the good faith of the bargainee, makes IT,
tie. 3. enters into possession, enjoying all
the benefits to be derived thereirom.
When b. calls for his money, 10y various
preteXts and Specious promises, he is put
OF. Necessitated at last TO resort to the
courts, he places the evidence of debt in
the hands OF lawyer, ana, alter the usual
delay by "dilatory pleas" a judgment is
obtained. Then B., finding that the in
terest on the judgment is but six per cent.
per anuum, while G. is paying him ten,
lilies bill in Chancery, enioining the col
lection of the judgment Suppose the note
is for - 900. On that amount the differ
ence between the current rate of interest
and that accruing upon the judgment,
amounts to $500 per annum-enough to
keep the case in Chancery for an indefi-
mite period of time, greatly TO the detri-
ment of \.
| might continue this line of argument
for long while. Many instances of the
wrong done innocent parties-sometimes
widows and Orphans-who are kept out of
their rightful dues by battling sharpers
will probably occur to the minds of almost
every intelligent reader who is Mt all famil-
lar with current events. l suppose there
is not a court docket in the State which
will not afford one or more cases confirm
ing the justice of my animadveTsiOn.
l have said enough, / trust. to arouse the
attention of some legislators of influence
or at least of some persons more potent in
etfecting reform than /, to subject involv-
ing interests not inferior to many which
have often agitated the public.

Sewer County Items.

EDITORS CHRONICLE | see your val
liable paper is a warm friend to public
schools, and publish some very valuable
articles from your various correspondents
over the country, and have not as yet seen
any of a complimentary nature from Sc
vier county. Permit your humble cor
respondent to say that the spirit of educa-
ton is rapidly increasing in this section,
and it is not before it should. There was a
period of about ten years, say from 81 to
II, that was very near lost and the chill
dren that grew up to manhood and wo-
manhood at that period are wonderfully
set back in the way of education. We feel
the effects Of that from sad experience.
Therefore We would urge upon parents to
educate their children instead Oflaying up
your silver and gold for them to fuss over
after you are dead and gone. Silver and
gold will vanish away, but learning infOr-
nation will never go astray. Our county
superintendent seems to be doing a very
good work and everything seems to be
moving on well in that direction. Prof.
Bassetts school, assisted by Miss Laura
Bryan, in Sevierville, closed yesterday.
They had quite an interesting time in
their composition exercises There were
several premiums awarded, both in speak
ing and compositions. Everything was
conducted in graceful manner, most es-
pecially in the ladies' department. Miss
Bryan performed very graceful upon her
pianOforte and had her students to take a
part with her who had been taking music
lesson during the session. Their school
will commence again the 9th of January.
A large school is expected. People will do
well TO patronize the school. Board can be
had in town. Miss Bryan will give music
lessons to all desiring to do so.
We understand Mr.. Wilson DUggan has
a school five miles above town that closed
yesterday, but have no report from it yet.
Sevierville, Dec. 20, 1878. SEWER.
HARRISBURG ACADEMY, SEWER COUNTY.
After the closing exercises of Nancy
Academy, we visited Harrisburg Academy,
located four miles east of Sevierville, and
were highly entertained with the declama-
tions aud compositions ofthe pupils. This
is a new institute, and the school has not
been in progress but five months. The
thoroughness Of the exercises and the Sc
lection of the pieces showed the ability
and energy of the teacher in his delightful
avOcatiOn. SPECTATOR.

The Masquerade.

Inc masqueradlng party from the Tlcln-
ity of Maryetta, few miles from the city,
entered the city christmas day, in full
costume. 1t was certainly the best thing
of the kind we have seen since the war.
They paraded the principal streets of the
city on horseback and in the most gro
tesque costumes imaginable, and were fol-
lowed by about two regiments of street
gamins with IRE crackers and free use of
their lungs, One of the party rode his
steed in n standing position trotting
through the city, more difficult feat than
is usually performed in a firstclass circus,
where they have trained horses aud 4
smooth ring, while he stood on thebare back
of q trotting horse over rough streets. We
failed to learn his name, although there
were many inquiries for the same. he be-
ing Of himself quite a show. Capt. Jack
made fine appearance. In fact, the dis
guises were allNyell gotten up.
Near the corner of Gay and Cumberland
streets they made an Intellectual attempt to
form in line and call the roll, but the
street uIchins crowded around them with
fire crackers and unearthly yells so that
their horses would not stand, aud they
were forced to try another point. They
proceeded TO Market Square and in front
Of the CHRONICLE Office formed in line,
ana the boys being persuaded to be quiet,
they called the roll. We failed to get a
list of the roll, but heard the names OF
such prominent personages called as
Snickle Fritz, James Leatherhead, Peter
Pumpkineater, Capt. Jack Shagnasty Jim,
Bogus Charley, Steamboat Charley, &C.,
DC. After having amused the citizens OF
Knoxville, they returned TO the neighbOr-
hood from whence they came, where we
understand, they wound up with grand

.wmNsuccessful Farmers.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The successful
farmer does not consider his calling as a
| degrading one, but appreciates the honor
| of the title he bears, and endeavors to be
worthy of the same, which he proves by
the crops he raises, by the farming imple-
ments he uses, etc. Nor should he to be
successful be blacksmith, q shoem aker,
etc.. as we fully believe in the old asser-
ton that Jack-of. ah-trades is master of
none, nor is he master of his farm. 1t re-
quires men of energy, economy, and in
dustry. Men who have become most sue
cessftil in business through life were those
who chung to one occupation and strove to
bring it as near to a state of perfection as
possible. No doubt many young
men leave the good old country
tarm and home, considering the occupa-
ton of farmer of rather degrading char
acter, and therefore, seek an occupation,
which to them seems more honorable, no
doubt, one cause of the market constantly
being overstocked with office seekers
agents, &c, but we are all aware that not
every one can turn out President, a hero,
a statesman. poet, or an orator, in fact we
believe this country would be much
further advanced if there were more
men, who would exert their influence
in reformed mode of successful
farming. Men who apply both
mental and physical powers for the cause,
men who do not despisc the idea of earn
ing their bread by the sweat of their
brows. Men who are not afraid of pulling
coats with q "come on, boys mot for
strife but labor instead of sitting in the
parlor smelling bouquet of wild roses,
or trying in vain to compose piece of
poetry, scraping finger nails, etc, while
probably the neighbours sheep are on his
wheat or the wild hog devouring his
corn, or the red knoll crying for manure.

best, and most improved agricultural i'm
plements and make proper use of
the same. Men who not only study
the nature of the zoil and its want o. treat
ment, but men who apply what is lacking,
viz: lime and manure, men who sow clo-
yer and do not fear of losing vast sum by
occasionally blowing down the same. Men
who clear land and endeavor to keep it as
productive for years to come, finally we
need men, who are anxious to keep ANNA
ton and life in the soil. Men who not on
ly speak of progression, but are earnest
workers, and endeavor to make this country
what it might be-one of the most product
i've and desirable countries in the Union.
Being farmer is no reason that ignor-
ance should dwell in the family. He is
blessed with free school system, uni
versities and high schools, that all alike
may obtain good education. Good books,
treating on every subject, calculated to
elevate the mind of man, can be had. AL
so daily, weekly and monthly journals,
for small sum, giving him the particu-
lars from home and abroad. Also the
opinion and experience of thousands of
minds beside his own. He lives in the
country, away from all hustle of city life,
giving him good opportunity to study
and practice the laws of nature.

Meeting In North Knoxville.

The meeting was called to order by Mr..
John l.. Moses, Chairman. The minutes
Of the previous meeting were read and APP
proved. a motion by DIR. Crozier, that no
one he allowed TO speak more than ten
minutes was carried. A communication
was read from l.. c. Houk, by Mr.. Moses,
something of the same nature as read by
Mr. Condor at the last meeting.
The questions Of independent corpora
ton or annexation to the city of Knox
willie was freely discussed by several per-
sens. DR.. CroZier then spoke against cor
porations of any kind, Rev. Mr.. Thomas
then spoke in favor of corporations. Capt.
NJ. ID. Bearden spoke at some length,
with credit to himself, and benefit to those
present, in favor Of annexation to the city
proper.
Rev. Mr.. Thomas spoke again, showing
the effect Of independent corporations, be-
ing OF the opinion that it would not work
well.
Mr.. Moses spoke at length in favor Of
improving Northwest Knoxville, by i'm
proving the condition Of their streets and
schools
DR.. Deaderick presented some interest
ing facts and figures, giving some desira-
bic information in reference 10 the cost of
carrying on municipal government,
After general discussion OF the subject,
On motion Of DIR. Brandau, the meeting
adjourned indefinitely, to be called at any
time by the Chairman, when it is hoped
the question will definitely settled.
