Williamson Farmer"-who, BY the
way, is one of the most influential cit
liens Of that county-has another let
ter fayoring the establishment of a
State bank, in the FrankliR Review
and Journal Of this week. He says:
I ~Since ] first ventured to address the
legislature, through your paper, about
a State bank, have talked with a good
many of my neighbors, and have
found only one man opposed to it, and
he had money to lend.
Before the war any farmer in Viii
hanson county of good credit could
borrow a thousand dollars from the
Bank Of Tennessee in Nashville, or
from the branch of the Planters Bank
IN Franklin, easier that he can now
borrow five dollars. There must be
some cause for this different state of
things. Was it not because we had
three large banks, all issuing money
and loaning it to the peopleP These
banks were all In good credit, and ]
have heard that they were the only
banks In the South that paid their
notes after the war.
II the farmers of Tennessee expect to
make enough to pay their taxes, after
supporting their families, under the
present system Of banking, with green
backs getting scarcer every month, they
are very much mistaken. We can't
collect enough money in my neighbor-
hood TO pay our blacksmiths' accounts.
There has been a cry of hard times
often before now; but the wolf has
come at last, and If something amt
done he viii eat mp the astsheep In the
pen.
= Let every member of the 1egisla-
ture compare the prices Of good land
In his county before the war with what
it viii bring now. Real estate is all
the property we have, and while It re-
mains in its present depressed and un-
saleable condition, we viii have hard
times and scarcity of money. What is
the remedy? If State bank Of issue
is not, what is? Task for information.
believe your paper is open to the peo-
pie let them speak. If anybody can
suggest better remedy than mine,
viii heartily endorse it; and If the
people viii speak out, ] think our Rep
resentativss will hearkeu.

FINANCE AND TRADR.
FINANCIAL.


Yesterday was an extremely dull day
with the banks, and but little was done be-
sides paying checks, and we may quote
money matters as entirely unchanged.
Exchange on New York is very dull.
The banks buy at I discount and sell at
- per thousand premium.
Gold is a shade frmer, closing in New
York at 111s. For the small amounts
offered here dealers pay ITO, while they
hold at l11s. Silver Is taken at 103 for
halves and quarters. .-ss--rr
Tennessee bonds are again weaker, clo-
sing in New York AZ Is and at 57s. We
hear of no transactions in this market.
There is scarcely anything doing in our
local stocks and bonds, and we but seldom
hear Of any transactions. For quotations
We refer to those given by the Nashville
Savings Company, corner Union and Col
lege streets.

FARM AND GARDEN.
KEEP UP THE WAR ON THE IN.
SECTS.

On many farms poultry meat is the
cheapest raised; for these domestic
birds, rightly managed, not only per-
form the Office of "dung-hin fowls .
and consume many Larvae that would
mature in the garden or field to the
great injury of crops; but turkeys,
guinea hens and others may be driven
far together and destroy the far-.Iers
worst enemies.
Not many gunners viii shoot birds
raised for food by country people, who
would think it all right to kill small
feathered songsters, regarding their
value to agriculture and fruit culture
as myth. Public opinion should be
more enlightened: but in the aantime
let there be no abatement of the war
on injurious insects.

A UNION county correspondent of the
KnO1rale Chronicle says:
"a shooting affrsy took place at May
nardville, Union county, which resulted in
the killing of Enoch Monroe. There were
several shots fred before the Sheriff and
deputies arrived at the scene of action, at
which time number of citizens were ar
rested. We understand the difficulty grew
ont of an old grudge between William Toll
Tier and Wal. Nyrick, it being alleged that
Toliber did the shooting which caused the
death Of Monroe. He was held over for
trial, and gave bond for his appearance al
the next term Of our Circuit Court"
