The usury Law of Tennessee.


EiitOr Home journal:
We have observed with pleasure the
| efforts Of the Home journal, and some
other newspapers in the State, to i'm
press upon the minds Of the people the
inutiIity of the usury law.
That society has no moral right to
make n usury law, is n proposition
which was established long ago by pc,
liticaI economists. But legislators gen,
orally have but little, if any knowledge
of political economy, and therefore
usury laws remain upon many statute
books.
Nearly every country" says an
eminent historian, has taken steps to
prevent usury, aud keep down The in
tcrcst Of money and the inyariablc
effect has been To increase usury and
raise the interest Of money. For since
no prohibition, however stringent, can
destroy the natural relation between
demand and supply, it has followed
that when some men want to borrow
and other men want to lend, both par
ties are sure TO find means of evading
Il law which intcrreres with their mu.
tual rights. II the two parties were
left to adjust their own bargain undis-
turbcd, the usury would depend on the
circumstance oil the loan, such As the
amount Of security, snd the chance of
repayment. But this mutual arranoc.
inent has been complicated BY the IN.
reference OF government. A certain
risk being always incurred by those
who disobey the law, the usurcr, very
properly, refuses to lend his money un
less he is also compensated for the
danger he is in from the penalty hang
ns over him. This compensation can
be made by the borrower. II is
hus obliged to pay what in reality is
double interest one interest for the
natural risk on the loan, and another I
interest for the extra risk from the

From the Cincinnati Commercially
CHATTANOOGA, April 2, IS7l--A
strange "kcy note" has been struck in
East Tennessee, and goes sounding
through the State. 1t is gravcly pro
posed to unite the Johnson party and
the Republican party for a fight against
the common encmy-thc BOurbons
The basis Of this union is to be this
ticket: For Governor. llorac &C May
nard for United States Senator, An
drew Johnson. The alliance is to be
only temporary. and whom these dis
tlngulshcd men are put into the res
pcctlvc positions. the partnership is to
be dissolved NY mutual consent, unless
it should appear best to keep it up rs a
permanent Bourbon fighter. However.
the main thing is to get a Republican
Governor, upon the part Of the Rcpub
%licans, and put A. }. into the United
States Senate upon the part of the
Johnson men.
II the Johnson men and Republicans
would come together there is not a
doubt OF their power to sweep the
Safe. Divided they can 10 nothing,
but united they would be in the major.
ity fifteen or twenty thousand. Whcth
er they can put aside ancient prcjudiccs
and party h~umbuggcry enough to form
an alliance is another question, The
Radicals would have to feel themselves
in a desperate condition before they
could he brought to swallow sucl, a
dose rs Andrew johnson, and the
johnson men could not force down
Maynard without making faces worse
than a niger swallowing live cells.
But when sore defeat awaits either of
these parties if they go to battle sepa.
and when they can triumph all
along the line by uniting, it seems fool
ISL not to unite. Still, the ancient
prcjudiccs OF the old huIks of s%roani.
survive wonderfully, and i'll
may be asking too much OF the party
bound masses that they throw them
