THE State debt of Tennessee is large.
From the best information that can be OBJ
tanned, it is something over S21, 600 900.
The annual interest at six per cent. is
about one and quarter millions. This,
we say, is large, and to meet it promptly
and honestly will prove heavy burden
for years to come. This the people under
stand and have long since made up their
minds to meet it. There is no hesitation
among them. Reputation is dishonesty,
and is so regarded generally; therefore, it
is so unpopular that few men have the
hardihood to openly advocate it. A poll
tician who even winks at such a
policy would be hooted at and driven
into obscurity. But while there are few
who openly advocate reputation, there
are those who would increase the burdens
of the tax payers with schemes for private
speculation, and when they have "feather-
ed their own nests would increase the
probabilities for such policy. Not salts
fed with giving our creditors some salts
factory evidence of our intentions to act
hoEe 'tly toward them by providing for
overdue interest on bonds, they want US
to be at the expense of issuing new bonds
for all our old ones, and would also have
us pay interest on the Con-
! federate "TOrbett issue" and all kindred so
called liabilities. Some men in the Leg
| islature deserve honorable mention for the
gallant manner in which they have fought
these encroachments on the peoples
rights. The joint select committee, of
which Senator Mcconnell, of Blount is
| chairman, and Hon. l.. G. Houk, of Knox,
an active and highly efficient member, will
elicit information on this subject that will
prove of public interest. The true friends
of our State, those who feel an interest in
sustaining the public credit, want to dc
just what is right and no more; and
if enemies by stubbornly perssting in

forcing the State to take the responsibility

and, IL possible, act together az "a unit

none, or under the charter only a limited one.
As the act was passed subsequent TO the con-
tract it cannot thus affect it. Nor does it alter
the case if we view it as an amendment to the
charter Whatever effect an amendment of the
charter may have upon the company. it cannot
affect its contracts already made. A member
OF the company can contract with it the same
any other persons and such contracts are
governed and protected by law as other con-
tracts are. If then the act imposes upon the
defendant any liability under his contract which
did not exist at the time it was made, it is so
far void Ii it does not, it affords no aid to the
plaintiff in this case.
In the second contract relied upon by the
plaintiff. the defendants promise to pay the
assessments is expressly made to depend upon
the execution and delivery of certain bonds
therein described This is a condition prece-
dent. the performance of which on the part of
the plaintiff is necessary to the maintenance OF
the action. The testimony fails to show that
any such bond has been delivered or rendered
to the defendant but such delivery or tender is
denied by him.

MR. II. X. STEVENS:
Dear Strive have COED reason for regarding

We feel assured that il has been the means of
Ing our sons life. He is now enteen years Of
age; tor the last two years he has suffered from
necrosis of his leg, caused by scrotulous affection,
and was so far reduced that all who saw him
thought his recovery impossible. council of able
physicians could give us but the faintest hope OF his
ever rallymg, two OF the number declaring that he
was beyond the reach of human remedies that even
amputation could not save him. as he had not yigor
enough to endure the operation. just then we com
menced giving him VEGtTINE. and from that time
to the present he has been continuously improving
He has lately resumed his studies, thrown away
crutches and cane, and walks about cheerful and
strong.
Though there is still some discharge from the
opening where his limb lanced we have the
fullest confidence that in little time he will beper

he is too well 10 be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours n Mp 5: BEST. y prs,,
The range of disorders which yield to the influence
OF ths medicine and the number of defined dis eases
other single medicine has hitherto been even recon-
men led for by any other than the propretors OF some
quack nostrum. These diseases are Scrofula and all
Eruptive diseases and Tumors Rheumatism, Govt,
Neuralgia, and Spinal complaints, and all Infam
matory symp toms, Ulcers, all Syphiltic diseases,
Kidney and Bladder diseases, Dropsy, the whole
train of painful disorders which generally afiict
American women, and which carry annually thou
sands of them to premature graves Dyspepsia, that
universal curse of American manhood Heartburn,
Piles. Constipation, Nervousness, inability to sleep
and impure blood.
This is formidable list OF human ailments for any
single medicine to successfully attack, and it is not
probable that any article before the public has
the power to the quarter OF them excepting the
VEGETINE. 1t lays the axe at the root of the tree
of disease by first eliminating every mpurity from
the blood, promoting the secretions, opening the
poresthe great escape valves of the system-invig-
Grating the liver to its full and natural action,
cleansing the stomach and strengthening digestion.
This much accomplished, the speedy and the per
manent cure OF not only the diseases have
enumerated, but likewise the whole train of chronic
and constitution disc rders, is certain to follow.
This is precisely what NEGETINE does, and it does
it SO quickly and go easily, that it is accomplished
fact almost before the patient is Of ii himself
