| point it shall never be increased-the
| consolidated bonds to be recognized in
| the constitution and the rate of taxation
| for all purposes limited to fourteen and
half mills-and q provision also by
constitutional amendment for the pay
ment of the interest on the cOns0li-
dated bonds as it accrues without fur
ther appropriation from the Legisla-
ture. Consultation with many large
holders of our bonds and with ex-
perienced tinanciers has confirmed me
~ the opinion that with such funding
bill and with constitutional amend
ment Of the character indicated our
whole debt can be readily funded at
the rate mentioned.
WHAT WOULD BE GAINED.
The substantial results of success
full execution Of this policy will be best
illustrated by q reference to official
figures.
The total debt of the State, funded
and unfunded, as appears by the off
clal records in the Auditors office, is as
follows:
Bonds outstanding january, l, 1874. 800 800 90
Auditors warrants (oldl. .--....... 1851 ,185 &c
AuultOrs warrants (neW, 1879 Jan
uarE l, 1874, about. 193.6l6 AZ
Certificates Of Indebtedness t0ldl 13l, ,7S5 ~
Total s24, ,2S3, 1886 90
The present rate of taxation for all
purposes is twenty one and half mills.
The existing debt of $24, ,2S3 1886, funded at
sixty cents ON the dollar, would leave
us with new debt of S14,570,331 60. If
any portion of the bonds now being
tested in the courts are declared illegal,
the new debt will be considerably less
than this latter sum. The interest tax
at present is eleven and half mills;
the rate necessary to pay all the interest
on the new debt represented by con-
sOlldated bonds is five and half mills.
1t should be remembered, also, that
this estimate is based upon our present
greatly reduced assessment. If five
and a half mills on our present low as
sessment will pay the interest on the
consolidated debt, it is apparent that as
soon as the relief brought by the reduc-
ten of our burdens begins to be felt
and property appreciates, as it neces-
sarily must, a less rate than five and
half mills will pay the interest on the
consolidated bonds. The interest tax
may then be still further reduced, or,
remaining at five and q half mills, the
surplus may be applied to the redemp-
ton of consols until the whole debt is
extinguished.
A statement of our condition now
and after funding the debt and incorpo-
rating in the constitution the provision |
herein recommended would show the |

PROPOSED FUNDING.
IL is idle now to dwell upon the origin
OF this debt, or to review the misfertunes
or profigaey Of expenditure by which
it was incurred. The pFobIem Is before
us for solution, and it must be dealt
with. In my Judgment, it can be best
solved by the passage of well digested
funding bill, accompanied BY appro-
pirate constitutional amendments, The
main features of the bill should be the
conversion of the whole bonded and
floating debt Of the State into CONSOLE
dated bonds, having forty years to run,
and bearing uniform rate Of interest.
The exchange TO be made at the rate
of sixty cents in consolidated bonds fer
each dollar Of bonds. warrants and GER
tificates of indebtedness now outstand-

The constitutional amendment should
provide that as soon as the. debt is re-
ducea below S25, it shall remain

Distribution of the Curren-

Bill.

in the House.
EIQEGE-

WASHINGTON, March I7.--Mr. Cox
presented the resolutions reciting the al
legation that bill had been presented
to the treasury department for adver-
tising done in defiance of law, which
requires written order for all advertis-
ing, and directing the secretary of the
treasury to furnish copies of all such
bills, and of the correspondence relating
thereto. Adopted.
Mr.. McCrary proposed that tomorrow
be set apart for discussion on the trans
portatiOn bill, giving as a reason that
the members would be absent to-mOr-
row to witness the launching of the Pa
cifc mail steamship City of Pekin, at
Chester, Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Roberts objected.
Mr.. Marshall, from the appropriation
committee, reported the military acad-
emy appropriation bill. Referred.
Mr.. Lowe reported bill exempting
Kansas and Missouri from the operation
of the act of May 10, 1872, which forbids
the pre- -emption of iron and coal-mines.
Passed.
Aftera conflict for precedence between
the cheap transportation bill, the legis-
lative appropriation bill, and the con-
tested election case, the house went into
committee of the whole, Mr.. WoOdford
in the chair, on legislative, executive
and judicial appropriations.
Mr.. Willard (Vt.) called attention to
the Inequality of compensation pro-
vided for the officials of congress and
for the various other departments of the
government, and offered various amend.
ments for the reduction of the pay of
door-keeper and messengers in the capi-
tai, all of which were rejected. There
being some difficulty in getting a quo
rum to vote, the committee rose after
having got through only two and half
pages Of bills. .--
Mr.. COburn, chairman of the military
committee, reported bill providing for
the gradual reduction of the army,
which was made the special order for
the first Tuesday in April.
Mr.. Todd moved TO adjourn over un-
til Thursday. Lost.
MIR. COnger, a member of the commit
tee on commerce, renewed the PROPOSE
ton that tomorrow be devoted to de-
bate on the cheap transportation bill.
The members OF his committee, he said,
regarded it almost as a part of their
duty to attend the launching of the
largest steamship ever built in the
United States.
Mr.. Roberts Withdrew his objection,
and unanimous consent was given.
The house then took recess till half
past seven o'clock in the evening, when
the cheap transportation bill should be
debated.

Get il.
To the Oranges of shelby and Fayette Coun-

To the Oranges Of Shelby and Fayette Coun-
1t is generally conceded that the great
agricultural need of our counties is more
labor, and of a higher grade of intelli-
gence, thrift and skill. Such labor is
continually arriving in this country, on
ly needing proper management to di-
rect current of it to our section. [
have been told by those conversant with
such subjects that il you can once estab-
lish thrifty settlement in any COM
munity, Of the nationality wished for,
the matter is secure. This settlement,
serving as nucleus to which
others will come, distributing
themselves thence throughout the COM
munity. Cannot the grangers establish
such settlement? Let each granger of
Shelby and Fayette contribute, say fifty
dollars. With the aggregate sum thus
obtained buy piece of land, bring sevS
eral families and settle them on it either
by lease OF sale, on easy terms. We
cannot individually loose much, the
land being always good for our purchase
money. The experiment being success
full we will reap great benefit from the
constant influx of industrious pro-
ducing citizens. Is not the expert
ment worth trial? l hope
the oranges of our counties will con-
slider the subject in their next regular
meeting, and in the meantime respect
fully invite the consideration and dis
cussiOn Of the plan by any or all who
are interested IN the development and
substantial prosperity of our counties.
