CONTROLLER BURcH intends to recon- |
mend to the next Legislature, the re-es-
adjustment of the old Bank of Tennessee.
The only drawback to such scheme is
the ten per cent. tax on other national
banks by the general Government, but
the Comptroller thinks this was merely a.
war measure, and is unconstitutional. He
thinks that the proceeds of this bank
would be enough to pay from one-half to
| two-thirds of the taxes of the State, and
that in ten years the entire annual in
| debtedness of the State would be paid
from the net profits of the bank. COL
BURCH closes his argument as follows:
"In the foregoing, have said nothing
of the great advantages which the people
of the State, which its mining, manutac-
turing, agricultural, indeed all industrial
interests would derive from the re-estab,
Hshment of the bank and its branches.
have said nothing of the great political
advantages that would accrue in building
up in every State powerful antagonl.S;,

ALI, the papers are discussing GRANT
for the third term. There is no DOUBT
hut Gen. GRANT desires it, and is hshlng
for Southern support. We are not IN ia
vor If GRANT for third term. In the

OF the WASHINGTON rule-two terms only

In the one hundredth year OF o.
pendence, let US return to an administra-
ton of this government upon the prlncl-
ples enunciated by the writer of the Dec
laration of independence.
We have much against Gen GRANT but
could say much 10 his credit; the gener-
Gus terms on which he accepted General
LEES surrender; the report made by HIM
| when he was sent South on a tour OF IN
spection and observation-whichr report
was stigmatized by the Radicals as an
attempt to whitewash the South; his per
sistent and repeated refusal to give his
consent to the indictment and prosecu'
ton Of Gems. LEE, JOHNSTON, and other
prominent paroled Confederate soldiers
President JOHNSON is said to have again
and again called upon Gen. GRANT tc
rive his consent to the prosecution o.
LEE and JOHNSTON. Gen. GRANT is salo
to have always declared that he would
never consent to their molestatlon Sc
long as they observed their paroles Al
this goes far to balance the outrages he
has been forced by MORTON, LOGAN, and
the other prominent Radical aspirants, t(
commit against the South. And at last
GRANT seems to have broken loose iron
these influences, and is disposed to d'
Justice to the South, and relieve us OF car
petbag rule. GRANT is much bette
man than majority of the Radical LEAD
ers, for they are malignants' and ne
not But GRANT sold himself to MoF
TONS party for power and pelt, and al
lowed himself to be made an instrumen
of injury to the South, and hence tn
South cannot support him.
