Il large proportion of the change bills, issued
after the beginning of the war, were specif-
cally made payable in current funds, and do
not, therefore, come within the scope OF the
decision of the Supreme Court. In the state
ment of the affairs of the bank, made by
President VIM. S. Hastie, on October l, 1863,
it is shown that change bills to the amount of
S412,51435, were issued under the act OF 1868.
These must be taken from the general account,
which will stand as follows:

ceed S800,O00, which is the figure at which
they are put by those who have carefully en-
uuired into the matter.
Railroad Strikes.
- The strike on the East Tennessee and
Georgia railroad has ended by the submission
of the men to the order reducing. wages 20
per cent. The representatives Of twenty
southern railroads recently met at Chattanoo.
ga, Tennessee, and unanimously adopted reso-
lutions affirming the justice of any reasona-
BILE reduction of wages by the companies, re-
cognizing the right of any employ6 to refuse
to work for the wages offered; condemning in
the strongest terms, as unjustifable and inde-
fensible, all combinations for the purpose of
resisting the rightful authority Of any compa-
ny, by interfering with or attempting to in
timidate or injure others willing to work for
the wages offered, pledging each other in no
case to employ any one discharged on account
of insubordinaton or combination to stop
the operations of any road, by Intimidation
or interference with others willing to work,
and promptly to inform each other, by print
ed circular, of all such combinations, with
the names of the parties engaged. All rail-
road companies in the United States are in
vited to cooperate.
The Bonded Debt of the State.
In the House of Representatives, on
Thursday last, the "scaliug" bill was intro
duced by the committee of ways and means,
and was made the special order for Tuesday
last. The Columbia correspondent of the
Charleston Ne,rs and Courier says:
"It ignores entirely the fraudulent CONVEX
sion bonds, and proposes to scale the balance
of the funded debt, stocks and bonds at the
rate Of forty per centum of their face value
and interest up to January, 1874. This
would reduce the debt, at rough estimate,
down to about FIVE millions. There is no diff
ference whatever made between old and new
bonds or stock. The bill levies annually
tax of three mills on the dollar to pay the
interest upon the proposed new bonds, and
provides sinking fund. ltalso appropriates
ten thousand dollars to be drawn upon the
order of the Governor, to carry the act into
effect. Not word is said about the floating
debt"
In the Senate, the bill introduced by Hayne
proposes to repudiate six million four hun
dred and fifteen thousand dollars Of CONVEX
sion bonds.

the question arises, how are we to
discriminate between the moral
worth, goodness and nobleness of a
fellow man? Must we judge of him
by his dads or by his deeds? Do
VIC bow TO the dry goods on his
back or the depravity and corrup-
ton under his shirt? In many in

DIsTRIBUTToNoF THE
MAILs.


Durning last month there were
stamped in the mailing department
of the pOst-Ofiice I04, O99 letters, IT,
7l2 transient newspapers, and 1000
postal cards,
We understand that the postal car
system extends through to New York,
via ChattauOoga and Bristol, and
there is talk of having double dai-
ly mail over the roads between Chat
tanOoga and Washington.
Mr. French, Superintendent of mail
railway transportation, has so far per-
fected system that he can trace mis-
sent letters back to the mail clerk who
may have put up the package in which
they have been found. Each mailing
clerk is required to put his name on
every package he sends out. Should
there be one letter, or a dozen letters
missent, It is charged up against him,
and at the end of the month slips are
forwarded back to him, with the num-
Der of missent letters marked upon
them. This is calculated to make the
mailing clerks remarkably careful
in the distribution of mail matters,
and the public realize the benefit de-
rived from il. The mailing clerks in
our Office are so efficient that very few
of their slips are returned with the
number of missent letters marked up
on them. The same rules apply to
those engaged in the distribution of
mails on postal routes. Mr.. French
has also gotten up printed schemes,
by reference to which clerks can as
certain exactly where the letters
shOud be sent, and the most expedi-
tious route by which they may be for
warded. French has his Office at
Chattanooga. Nashville and Memphis
are the only distributing offices in the
State, Chattanooga and Knoxville be-
ing only what is known as separating

Valuable Invention.

Judge N. A. Patterson, editor of the
Cleaveland (Tenn.) Commercial, Re
publican, has been dabbling with
mechanics, and seems to have made a
success of it, Judging from Wash

as follows:
A patent screw, invented by the

by eminent engineers a signal sue
