Mr.. VINToN of Gray gave notice recently
that he should not leave the Legislature this
winter without making an effort to have the
salary of members of that body raised to $500
per annum. Ofcourse such provision could
only apply to members of future Legislatures.
1t is fit thing to do. The salaries of our
LIE isators should certainly be large enough
to pay their expenses at Augusta.

HE Funding Bill.

Some of our West Tennessee ex-
ch anges are making great ado about
the way in which the Funding Bill be-
came a law. Some of these papers don't
know the difference between the Fund
ing Bill and the Assessment act. The
insinuations, and frequently open
charges, that are continually being made,
that said bill was passed by fraud-that
She members were bought and sold like
cattle in the market, are the chimerical
inventions of Over-credulous and timid
men. The fact is that the Bill was passed
about as fairly as and other that became
q law. We don't suppose an act was
ever passed that was not Influenced eth
er directly, or indirectly, by outsiders.
A good legislator will always take the
counsel of wise men among his constitu-
ency, and be influenced more or less by
their advice. Corruption is openly
avowed by the opponents of tue bill,
and yet these anti-funders, who were
present, or ought to have been, when
the act became a law, have never ex-
posed any member of the Legislature
yet; and if they know Of corruption
and do not expose it, they are COM
pounding crime, and are pa1-ticePS cTino-
fitis in the act. To know of scoundrel-
ism and then help to conceal it, is in
famous; and, now, we do hope that
those anti-funding wise-acres will either
personate the corrupt parties, and let the
people consign them to eternal infamy
and shame, or that they will forever
hold their peace in the futdre. Others
say that the BIZ was bullied through.
That is lame one. It does seem TO us
that if we had been an anti-tunding
member of that House, that we would be
ashamed at this late day to report to our
constituents, that VIC had been bullied;
and that, too, by a pack of corruption
lists. If the measure was bullied through
those who did it were either in the ma
jority, or else a pretty bold set OF
fellows.

Railroad NEeefines-

We learn from the Observer, that a
meeting was held last week in Fay
ettevi1le, at which the following re-
solution was adopted.
Resolved, That we, portion of the
citizens of Lincoln county, in meet
ing assembled, pledge Ourselves to
cooperate with our sister counties in
the construction of two main lines OF
railroads, through our oOUntry-one
line extending from Cairo via
Columbia and Fayetteville to Hunts
Vile, and the other extending from
Memphis to Knoxville via Pulaski,
Fayetteville, Lynchburg, Tullahoma
and Sparta.
An interesting railroad meeting
was held in Pulaski on the 7th inst,
which was addressed by Col. SYKES,
Col. Rose and others, and report
submitted by A. Cox, Esq, who at
tended the convention at Mayfield.
from which report as given in the
Citizen, We have the following
extract:
The convention assembled after
dinner, it being largely attended by
delegates along the line from ST.
Louis to Atlanta, Georgia. It was
the most earnest, enthusiastic conven-
ton he ever witnessed. A deter
mination was expressed by the Con-
vention 10 go Immediately to work

The Augusta, Arkansas. Bulletin con-
tains the following letter from THOMAS
WARREN, Union County, Arkansas, J.
NJ. COURTNEY, of Kearney County, Mis-
souri,, and dated but few days ago:
81 will tell of horrible murder that
took place not far from where / live. 1t
happened about a month ago. There
were four negroes concerned in it. A
married lady went so a neighbours house
to stay several days. She was not well
when she left home, ard her husband
told her that he would take care of the
children until she came back; but when
she got to where she was going, there was
no one at the house but hired men, and
she started back. She hal not gone far
before a negro man stopped her horse,
took her off the horse, hitched it outside
Of the road and told her to take the path
before, and drove and pushed and pulled
her eight miles into the bottom and tied
her to tree and ravished her.
HE kept her there three days and
nights, tied to the tree. The second day
while there she had child in the woods
by herself She was gone from home
three days before her husband went af-
| ter her He went over to the house
where she had started to go, and when
he found she was not there, started home
and found the horse tied where the negro
had left it three days before. He took
| thu horse home, and collected some men
| together and commenced hunting fol
| her, and next day saw two little negroes
who told them that they had seen a ne
gro, the day before, driving white wo-
| man before him down the path, They
| scattered off to hunt for them, and got sc
close that the negro went by where the
| woman was tied, killed her with stick
nd thea left her, but they went on after
him, but got off her track. The negro
| stopped at house and asked negro
man and boy if there was any anybody
hunting for missing body. They told
him yes, aud as he got up to start they
caught him, and started back with binl
and met one of the men in pursuit
They made him tell where the woman
was. He said he killed her. They then
made him take them to where she was.
| He said they were in sight of her, the
| day before when the woman faiItted, and
said she had tainted three or four times
| while tied, and she begged him to turn
her loose, and he would not. They took
! the negro to her husband, and asked him
what they must do with him. He told
| them to burn him. TIE men who had
him were all negroes. They built
| two log heaps, and put him in the mid
| die. They were twenty-four hours
burning him. They cut his toes OH ano
made him Swallow them, and ther
cut slips of skin of his body and made
him broil them on Goals and eat them
and they would roll him in the Goals
and take him out and talk to him anC
nut him back, and at last they built 6
large fire, pnt him on top of it and lei
him burn TO ashes. There was not g
white man that had anything to do with
! it; all negroes.
1.-THE other three negroes that were
/ killed, were shot dead on the spot(?

I would not tell"

The HEafIroad again: What
.haU we do 10 get il.

IL will never do for Columbia 10 miss
tho railroads which it has been proposed
shall concentrate at this point. Among
them are the ST. Louis and South At
lantic, now known AS the Duck River
valley Road, the Memphis and Knox
willie Road and the Princeton, CIarks-
Vile and Columbia Road. The concen-
tration of these roads at Columbia Will
InaB Q it city of 10000 inhabitants ana
vii double the value OF property III
AIaury County, which is now $40, 100000.
The coal and the iron that would be
brounht over these roads would make
Them paving inyestmsnts as can easily
be demonstrated, il men will look at
facts and figures. The erection is not
now as to the value OF these roads, but
it is how can we secure them. This can
only be done by united and energetic
action, Let US first raise enough stock
90 nut the road under contract 10 Lewis
burg. Are there not fifty men III ana
aro,InI Columbia that will subscribe
$4,000 each, to secure the road. his
subscription may be paid in any thing
which they have on their farms, or IN
tbeir stores. Surely Columbia and
Many county can raise this amount by
private subscription. If not done ~
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 1850-1873, 1873-05-02

the first of July, it may be too late. We
speak advisedly.
Our very anxiety for the welfare of
our town and county makes us earnest,
some may think, too earnest. We know
the danger, and therefore we make
these appeals. Let committee be APP
pointed without delay, to get up the
amount necessary to put the road under
contract to Lewisburg. If the county
should vote subscription the the stock
holders can be released, and the money
they may have paid can be returned to
them. There are many in the immedi-
ate neighborhood of Columbia, but who
are not in the corporate limits, that
would take stock, as they are to be bene-
fitted nearly as much as those within
the corporation. After the road is pat
under contract to Lewisburg, let the
question of county subscription OF
100000 to railroads, and $4,000 to
turnpikes be submitted to the people of
the comfy. Giles county which is not
worth as much as Maury by 50, 721 ,573,
proposes to subscribe $4,000 to rail-
roads alone. Four handred and fifty
thousand dollars is not one twentieth of
the property of Maury county, and will
not be one thirtieth after all these
roads are completed. The turnpike
companies should be organized, and
should submit their application at the
same time that the railroad companies
make their application, which it is
thought will be at the July Term of the
County Court. Let us know what
Maury intends to do. Is she, what many
OF her neighbors say OF her, dead TO all
spirit of enterprise, or is she what we
believe her to be, equal to any of her
sister counties in all the elements that
constitute great county, among which
not the least, is spirit of enlightened
progress2 Her action this year will de-
termine her future position. We trust
and believe her people will be fully
equal to the occasion.

In reply to many inquiries in regard
to the matter, his excellency, Governor
BROWN has published card in which
he states that he will not call an extra
Session of the Legislature. The follow
ing is an extract from it,
81 see no necessity for an extra session OF
the General Assembly. believe the assess
ment act now in force, will develop large
ly increased amount of taxable property
ample under the present law, to meet the
necessities of the State. Should be mis-
taken in this, however, and should the
assessment returns disclose the fact that the
revenues will not be sufficient to meet the
interest as provided for in the funding act,
the General Assembly will certainly be
called together in amply time to meet the
emergency. No means within the warrant
| of the Constitution and laws, that may be
necessary to protect the plighted faith and
credit of the State, will be neglected o.
| omitted.
"The interest maturing July l, 1874, cal
| and will be met out of the revenues of 1873
| even should there De no improvement IL
| the assessment returns, as a very simple
! calculation Including the taxes on priv
| ileges1 will readily show. And if any i'm
proVement in the revenue laws should ap
| pear necessary to meet the subsequent in
| stallments of interest, 1t can and should b.
made in the assessments and levies of 1874
In any aspect of the case, therefore, there i
no existing necessity for converting In
| General Assembly in extra session.

THE QUEsTIoN.-The Bolivar Bulletin,
abiding to the fact that General Whit
thorne is spoken of for Governor of Ten
nessee, asks How does he stand on the
back salary grab?' That is pertinent
question.
Whit. says he has no aspirations in that
direction. Are the grapes sour ? Wing
and Tribune.
If the editor of The Bulletin had been
reading the papers he might not
have been called upon to show bis ig-
noranee-he would have known that
Gen. wHITTHoRNE opposed the "back
grab" and has donated the money that
is due him from the stealing act" to the
Southern Methodist University.

The Reason.

One reason why we favored the Fund
ing bill was, that it showed the debt of
forty years. A thousand antAfunding
mouths are now open to say, postponing
doesn't paw off debt. OF course it
doesn't. But it has this effects the
property valuation of Tennessee is now
estimated at nearly $500, 200, 900 forty
wears hence it will be worth $500, 00O, 900;
and where we have only about ], 250O, 600,
inhabitants now, we will, at that period
have at least 100000. This enormous
increase in property and polls, even
though the debt may increase all the
s. lille, will enable the State to pay of
the Indebtedness without any difficulty.
