HE Railroad Question I'm n
Nutshell

In our article of last week on "who
should vote in a railroad election"
there occurred some typographical err
rOrs which we propose to correct, and we
republish the sentences because we
think they contain the whole argument
an brief. The sentences should have
have read thus: eve believe, and
are able to show, that railroads bene-
mt the whole community, every man in
proportion to his property, and therefore
we contend that all should pay in pro-
portion to the benefits they receive. The
idea of country being oppressed and
bankrupted, by the building of railroads
or other improvements, is preposterous,
and is contradicted by every day expert
ence. If a man should spend 5, 1000, and
increase the value of his property $1,000,
would this Cypress or bankrupt him
In the same way, if county should pay
100000, and increase its property,
thereby, S4,OOO,OOO, would any man say
that he was oppressed If only men who
took stock, were benefited by railroads,
then, private subscription might do, but
when men who take no stock, often re-
give more benefits than those who take
stock, this is unjust and unfair. BY
county or town subscription, all pay in
proportion to the benefits they receive.
It is the fairest and most equitable mode
of subscription"

The Mail says it would be burdensome
and oppressive on the people OF Maury
county to subscribe $3.50, 900 to build rail-
roads through the county, but says it
should be done by private enterprise,
and even proposes to be one of a number
TO make up "pony purse" for the pur-
pose. The people OF Many county own

owning only 8, OOO, 900 Zone million dol
lars) worth of property to subscribe
S25O,0O0? Isit not much more oppress-
i've for part than it is for the whole to
pay this amount 2 If the subscription
of S25O,O0O will not pay the county, how
will it pay private individuals Our
doctrine is that it will pay the county,
and therefore we believe it will nav in
dividuals.

Nashville Journal of Commerce.
The discussion which arose in the
Agricultural Congress, in regard to
freight charges, was very instructive
as we'll as interesting. It is ques-
ton of the greatest importance to all
the interests of the country, manu-
featuring and mining as well as az
ricultural. We are glad to see that
the farmers in council acted with so
much wisdom and discretion a
wholesale war on railroads would
have been unjust. That there are
evils in the management of railroads
which ought to be remedied, no fair
minded man can deny ; but many of
the grievances complained of are
unavoidable under the present sys-
tenn of costly railways. We must, in
orde., to get cheap transportation,
which the country so much needs,
and must have, sooner or.later, have
a cheaper system of railways, and al
so water transportation can be had.
Cheap railroads to carry the products
of the country to canals AID rivers, is
what is imperatively demanded. We
are therefore glad to see so infuenti-
al body as the National Agricultu-
raj Congress advocating and recon-
mending this system.
The seventh resolution recon-
mended by the committee, strikes
the keynote of cheap transportation.
This, in connection with the fifth re-
solution, covers the whole ground.
Cheap railways and water transport
tatiOn will aaogiro xuhof tho nountI.v
needs and must have, and is much
better than to attempt to regulate
freight charges by legislative action
These cheap railways, in connection
with the canals and rivers, will fur
nish check upon unjust discrimina-
tons and enormous charges. This
win be q legitimate and effectusl
remedy. We have advocated and
intend 10 continue to advocate this
policy.

A HORRIBLE murder was committed

southern ,Ien and Women.

Ex-Gov. Seymour, of New York one
of the purest as we'll as most distinguish
ed public men in America, has been
spending some time in Florida, and has
tuere given his views of Southern men
and women, as below detailed, to cor
respondent of the Atlanta Sun:
As to the statesmen, the manhood and
womanhood of tue South in the past,
Governor Seymour affirms with en-
Dhasis that when Southern statesmen
were in power we had pure and glori~
GUS government F; but that in their ex-
clusiOu from office crime and corruption
have come in like flood. Who would
have thought of assOciating such notori-
Gus scandals as have lately disgraced
American craftsmanship, with the illus
trious names of Clay, Calhoun, Hunter,
Berrieu, Stephens and a host of others
which cannot now be recited? lie is
fully persuaded that Southern men who
are gentlemen by birth and education
must elevate the negro If he ever is ele-
waited. Because it is a fact with which
the world is familiar, that the highest
class of society has always the strong
est sympathy for the lowest class. The
half educated and half cultivated have
not those finer sensIbilities and noble
aspirations which fit men for great
work of humanity and patriotism.
"A little learning is dangeroug thing
The hightoned Southerner must not
abandon the black man in this crisis of
his history, but lend helping hand in
educating and civilizing the freedman.
BY doing this he will still maintain his |
high character for philanthropy and |
patriotism, and confer great bless |
ing on the blacks.
The Governor eloquently proclaims |
the Southern women to be the highest |
type and model of womanhood, and the |
reason he assigns for this is, that they |
have always had the care of a weak and |
ignorant race, and that this dependent, |
domestic charge which Providence gave |
them, has developed the noblest traits |
OF character and the warmeSt feelings of |
philanthropy. The kind attentions |
they have given to their servants have |
lifted them above the cold atmosphere /
at avarice and selfishnesss, and made /
them patterns of whatsoever things are |
pure, lovely, and of good report. IL |
slavery was an evil, it has bred the best |
race of men and women the world ever |
saw.
And in few years, when this dirty |
negro, renegade and carpet-bag reign /
shall have passed away, the mental and |
moral power of just such men and wo- |
men will shine out again in full /
strength and splendor.

The Assessment Law.
From the Athens Post.l

IOIu lllt 1AlllCllo L Oob"
Worse laws have frequently been
enacted and enforced without arous-
ing one-tenth tie indignation and
odium. We don't understand that
it increased the rate or grade of taxa
ton. One thousand dollars of per-
sonalty is still exempt from taxation.
The law simply reaches out to ascer-
tain if some of US who used to report
little less than that amount haven't
got little more noW-'an excess up
on which we ought to pay a tax.
We now have to render a schedule
in detail and swear to it, while for
merly not few of US made a rough
guess and just swOre at the pile.
When the forms of assessment are
simplified, as they ought to be at the
earliest possible moment, so that the
average intellect OF the State can COM
prehend them, much that at the pres
ent time seems so Objectionable and
odious will disappear, though even
then there will be Offengiveness
enough left in the law to make its
repeal among the first acts of the sue
ceeding Legislature.
Dub InIuUS VIC uIuu SGT OuI W We
fend this obnoxious measure. We
are not competent to do that, though
sometimes there is more pleasure in
facing the bowling storm than in
quietly falling in with the swelling
popular current. We only intended
to suggest that, perhaps, there was
more noise being made than the case
really called for, and that possibly
the sober second thought might
show that some of US had been max
ing asses of ourselves without suffi-
cient provocation. If the business
man, the banker, the bondholder,
the brokers and money-changers,
they who loan at ten and twelve per
cent. and compound the interest ey-
cry month, who take 1.-THE, mint and
cummin-if these can stand the new
assessment law, surely the farmers
can, for it affects the la st good deal
less than the former.

Deaths by Cholera in Nashville during
the past ten days have been numerous
from ten to twenty a day. The latest
information now is that it is rapidly

ance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from OF provonts this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prevention
is better than cure; for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This CURED expels
the miasmatic poison of Fever aud Ague
from the system, and prevents the develop

approach of its premonitory symptoms. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER

no Quinine or mineral; consequently IL pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as If they had never

Fever and Ague is not alone the con-
sequence of the miasmatic poison. A great
