WHAT TENNESSEE HAS TO SHOW FOR
HER DEBT.

Although, in my opinion, the debt is
much larger than it should be, yet Ten
nessee has received a great deal fol her
debt She has built her State capitol,
her benevolent institutions, and has es.
tsblished magnificent system of turn
pixies and railroads. In 1850 Ten
nessee had only S201, ,246 $50 of property
true value), and in 1870, after the raw
ages OF the war and the loss of her slave
property, she had S49S, 237, 724, a gain of
1886, ,99l ,03S. With these facts before US,
how can any one say we have nothing
TO show for our debt? Are we to get the
benefits and then repudiate the Obliga-
tiOps?

the highest single bet that was per-
mitted. The son of the proprietor acted as
dealer. while his dignifed sire paced the
room during the evening sessions, and kept
general oversight OF the gamesters. One
evening a couple of army officers induced
their black servant by the presant OF a small
fec to smuggle them into this temple of luck,
where whites were not commonly tolerated.
and, providing that facile mental with ten
silver dollars, Instructed him to put them on

in spelling out the news from the evening
paper, had not observed the entrance of the
strangers nor the queer turn the game had
taken. Presently, however, he lifted his
eyes and espied the fabulous pile Of specie
glittering over the painted cards. For a
moment be was struck dumb, but recover
ing his voice, he cried out in a tone of thun-

There was a dead silence. The trembling
darkies were all afraid to answer. "Who
put dat money on dat ace?" repeated the out
ragged son of Guinea. There was still no
answer, and he went on: "Whoever put dat
money on dat ace had better take dat money

Has been at work only few months, but
has permanently destroyed the sscendency
of the Republican party in more than one
State, and prepared the way for the su,,sem-
acy of an opposition party in majority of
all the States Whether this coming party
Is to bear a new name, or seek a filiation
with the Democratic party, reformed and
remodeled, is, as we remarked the other day,
one of the unsolved problems of the hour.
At any rate the results already achieved,
show that the future Is in the farmers
hands. They hold the balance of power
now in the greater part of the country, and
their political strength will be pretty fully
developed and illustrated In the next years
elections. In the meantime Republican
party leaders crack their whips louder than
ever, as they see their power gradually but
surely passing away. 1t Is really mirth-
moving to read the comments of the Repub
lican newspapers and politicians of Califor-
MIA on the dreadful crisis In their affairs.
They are aghast at the treachery of Repub-
lican who dared be a candidate for the
Senate on an independent platform; they
lack words to express their amazement that
other Republicans could vote for such a can
didate. fhe Republican members OF the
Legislature who voted for Booth are
held up TO scorn in the party
Journals When Governor Booth be-
came prominent as a candidate for the
Senate. nofhinE could be said against him
but this: "He is an enemy of the party
that eeci ed him." Now, after his cleo ion,
say the pa,tisans "the Republican legisla-
tors who voted for Booth were chosen to
serve our party; they have not done so; let
them resign" Says one of the party or
gans: 1.-THE Official must not change his
party without resigning his office. He is
not chosen TO serve the public alone; he has
pledged himself to the party as well as to
the Staten And so on. All of which shows
the desperate straits TO which the Republi-
can unagnates are reduced on the Pacific
slope. But. bless your soul, Just wait till

THE OLD LOVE.

You love me, only me. DO | not know?
II were gone your life would be no more
Than his who, hungering on a rocky shore,
Shipwrecked, alone. observes the ebb and dow
OF hopeless ocean widening forth below,
And is remembering all that was before.
Dear, believe IL, at your strong hearts core
am the life; no need TO tell me 80.
And yet-Ah husband, though be more fair,
More worth your love, though you loved her
not,
Else must you have some different, deeper
name
For loving mel dimly seem aware,
As though you conned old stories long for
got,
Those days:are with you-ners- came.
The mountain traveller, Joyous on his way,
Looks on the vale he left and calls il fair,
Then counts with pride how far he is from
there,
And still ascends. And when my fancies stray
Pleased with light memories of "a bygOne day,
would not have again the things that were.
breathe their thought like fragrance in the
air
OF flowers gathered In my childish play.
And thou, my very soul, can IL touch thee
IL remember her or 1 forget?
Does the sun ask If the white stars be set?
Yes, recall, shall many times, maybe,
Recall the dear old boyisn days again,
The dear old boyish passion Love, what
then?

GOING TO POT.
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DRIFTING TO TIKI
DEFINITION Bow-wows.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DRIFTING TO THE
DEFINITION Bow-wows.
The Nashville Republican Ba ner says,
with singular force: The Republican party
is fast going to the dogs. OF course this is
not to be understood applying to indi-
vidusl members of once powerful organi-
zation, but simply to the political faction, as
such, which has ruled the country for de-
cade and half. The signs of the times,
exhibited in all sorts of ways, manifestly
portend the coming collapse. A special
telegram, published elsewhere, speaks of the
party Generalization which prevails in Con-
gress, something that has not been known
In that body for years. The causes of this
are transparent enough to even the casual
reader of the daily newspaper. 4 dissatisfied,
turbulent and rebellious constituency must
produce more or less effect on the
average Congressman, and when
the whole country raises its voice
against the thieving and corruption
which has disgraced the National Legisla-
ture, is it not to be wondered at that high
officials, wise in their generation, and with
an eye to the future, should be making their
preparations to stand from under, or like
rats, be ready to desert the sinking ship7
The corruption and abuses of the dominant
party produced the reaction which found
fOrceable expression in the fall elections.
The hard times of the last few months is
naturally enough mainly attributed 10 the
inefficiency and Encouragement of those
in power, so that, added to all its other sins
of commission and commission, if general
election were to be held tomorrow,
the Republican party would be
hurled from its high estate, and forced into
an oblivion which knows no waking. No.
tice the political rumblings which precede
the inevitable doom. The election of Gov.
Booth, of California, TO the United States
Senate, and the public withdrawal of the
Illinois farmers from all existing party or
CARNATIONS, are fruit of the same tree. They
are the result of a movement in politics
which may be seen everywhere, but which
the farmers have espoused with such hearth
ness as to make it almost sure of success in
the agricultural States.

AN INDIANA BANKER.

RUGE M'CULLoCH IN LoNDON-HIS HOUSE
RE-ESTARII5HED.
A London letter says: The news of Mr..
McCulloch's return, and his determination
TO remain and reorganize his banking house,
gratified great number of friends, both
English and American. The Times in its
financial columns, welcomed him back in
this fashion: "The announcement made
yesterday that the Lodon correspondents OF
MIR. Jay Cooke & Co., of New York, are now
entirely ASSOCIATED with that firm, and that
their business will henceforth be carried on
under the style of McCulloch & Co., has
been received with much satisfaction. On
the 18th of September last, the news was
telegraphed of the failure of Jay Cooke Il
Co., with liabilities estimated at nearly
G., 100000 sterling, and the first impression
was that the London house OF Jay Cooke,
McCulloch 4 Co. must inevitably be so tar
compromised as to be forced, even in the
best, to q temporary suspension. 1t was
ascertained, however. that their immense
business had been conducted with such safe
~ and precision that they were able not only
to meet all the accepJances which the failure
of Jay Cooke * Co., at New York, would
leave them for the time tOpr0vide for, but
likewise every other liability. Such a re-
suit, with totals of the magnitude involved,
is almost, if not entirely, without precedent,
and constitutes most creditable feature in
mercantile history. If the house had stop
ped, even but for short period, the indirect
consequences might have been most serious
in the then state of the London stock and
money markets. That this diaster
was avoided is due to the self possession dis
played by the partners, acting as they did
under the best legal and other advice, and
the qualification felt here at the future pros
poets preserved for the house must be ex-
perienced in an equal degree in America,
Mr.. MCCULLOUGH having been Finance Min :
lister at Washington through four most try
ing years, and the firm holding the most inn
portant position of agents in London for the
Navy Department of the United States.

SUBSTITUTION Sunday afternoon
a Mr.. Sullivan came down from Vir-
ginia in a buggy, and stopped at the
mouth OF Succor Ravine. AS he was
about hitching the horses they took
fright and dashed away at great
speed up the ravine, which is a very
narrow and rocky one, not supplied
with good road bed. They contin-
ued up the gulch for about a quarter
of a mile, to a point where the grade
from the South Comstock hosting
works crosses the same, when they
turned into the road, running tow
ard the new hoisting-works situated
on the brink of the bluff, where the
road ends. On they sped, and in
making the turn around the hosting
works it was natural to suppose they
would have gone over the bluff.
Wonderful to relate they succeeded
in making the turn, barely missed
going into an old shaft of several
hundred feet in depth, and dashed
down the mountain side, covered
with large quartz powders, and
without the semblance OF trail, to
Succor Ravine. Where they struck
the level of the ravine the buggy
seems to have been first upset, as the
cushion was found here, and about
the place of starting. fifty yards be-
low, the bed of the vehicle was left.
Coming into Main street with the
running gear of the buggy at their
heels, they had fair sailing for time
until they overlook wood team in
front of Paul Gross stable. In pas
sing this obstruction they ran into
an awning in front of house adj
Joining the engine house, where they
left the remainder of the buggy, a
total wreck, and continued down the
street at a l:15 rate of speed. The
horses were finally secured unin-
jured! The team was from Dixon's
Stable, d street, Virginia. 1t is an
easy matter to find spokes and splin-
ters from the woodwork of the bug
CIV tor a circuit of about half mile,
but they will not pay man 81 90
per diem to collect them. 1t will
take a new buggy to repair damage.
