WE republish elsewhere a few Of the
comments elected from State exchanges
by the demands of the late Colored
Convention In this city. The reader
VIII find among our excerpts no re-
marks from Republican sources, for
the simple reason that we have seen
none. The KaOzriIle Chronicle is sin
gularly silent, and even the Chattanooga
Commercial has nothing to say on this
very live issue sprung upon US by the
blacks themselves. This is not as it
should be. There rests a double duty
on Republican journals in this
matter. They have the same inter-
ests at stake in the schools and
elsewhere that we have. But, besides
this, they have the ear of the negro,
which we have not, and their words of
advice would have an influence with
the race that Democratic organs cannot
pretend to. The rich man can educate
his child where he hsteth. 1t is the
poorer classes of whites who must in
vite the miscegenation Of their children
or leave them uneducated. If the Re-
publican party of Tennessee cannot af-
ford to take some stand on anissue like
this, that comes home to every mans
door, and enters the very family circle,
it is the death-knell of the party IN this
section.

THE PLUMBERS OF RADICAL FL
NANCIERING.

a tabular statement showing the
imports and exports of the United
States for 1873 has been issued by the
Bureau Of Statistics at Washington,
from which the following figures are
copied, the differences and reasoning
being our own. The nations taste
for sugar and molasses is shown by the
importation of these articles to the ex-
tent Of S94, 592, AS. With our facih-
ties for the manufacture of cane and
maple sugar, syrup and molasses, and
to produce honey, should we find 1t
necessary to send abroad gold or its
equivalent to the enormous amount Of
ninety-four and a half million dollars
for sweetening every year? Here is
branch of agricultural and manufactur-
ing industry that viii one day develop
itself in the South, and become a
source of great wealth.
Our coffee bill for 1878 was the trihe
of S47,859,811. The increased con-
sumption Of the narcotic seeds of this
tropical plant tells of indulgence in
nerve-stimulant, which IN moderation
does no harm, but in excess, is quite in
furious. If our coffee were equally DIS
tributed, every babe, child, woman and
man in the Union, would drink about
dollar and half IN value, first cost, In
a year. Our tea costs us $50, 49,
$50. or about fifty cents head on our
whole population, and alcohol, in the
shapes of spirits, wine and beer, SlO,-
SO9,O21, as imported. If we could add
what consumers pay for all home made
beer, whisky, brandy, wine, and other
liquors, that go to quiet little, and ex-
cite a vast deal Of thirst in the United
States, one element Of this drink
ing business might be stated In
nut shell. Nature calls for
pure water and some milk. Habit feeds
her on all sorts Of decoctions, fermenta-
lions, Installations, and adulterated
drugs, as the best that our advanced
common sense and moral sense can do
in the premises. We do not drink to-
bacco juice, but we often press it out
between our teeth and extract the de-
icious poison by dry distillaiion in
pipes and cigars. One indulgence
leads to another, and vice is the natural
parent of crime. Excess of brain and
nerve stimulants produces partial in
sanity, and that begets civil and do
mestic war.
We beg to suggest that an expend.
iture of some five dollars a year for
each person, old and young, of both
sexes, for mere stimulanGs drank, is
taking on more steam than our burnt
boilers can bear without bursting. The
distribution Of alcoholic and other bev-
erages is very unequal, and the weakest
place in the boiler is the measure of its
safety.
Not to dwell on the drinking charac.
teristics of the American people, let us
briefly notice their wooden clothing and
manufactures. They imported wool
and fabrics Of the same in 1873, to the
amount of So, 1854, 5SS. All know that
Congress has maintained for years
high impost duty on foreign wool and
wooden goods to foster wOol-growing
and wooden manufactures in this coun-
try. Protection has proved a worth
less quack medicine. 1t is worse than

.voNe THE FAITHFUL,

Houk's paper, the Loudon Journal,
deyotes an editorial of some length to
the situation in the Second Congress
sional district, the long and short of
which isthat, though Maynard is a man
of "transeendent abilities" and "the
most accomplished scholar in the
State" with a moral character "above
reproach" and ''status in Congress
few men have attained" yet this thing
of keeping one fellow in Office all his
life to the exclusion of other equally
meritorious fellows Zone of whom Houk
is which,, has become too monotonous
for comfort.
1t is this same spirit of chronic dis
content which moves the KnorUilIe
Chronicle to demonstrate in a queru-
lous way against the prematurely
heated temperature of the contest
among the aspirants for the nominal
ton in the First Congressional District,
where a split, of which the Press and
Herald gives the following account, has
already occurred:
The colored voters of the district as
sembled at Bulls Gap, on Friday. The
convention was largely attended, fully
three hundred delegates being present.
The caucussing was lively, and much
excitement and confusion prevailed
The friends of Roderick Random But
Ter were evidently in large majority,
and the advocates of Gillenwaters
charged roundly that Buffers striker;
had come prepared to pack the conven-
ton. So warm did the preliminary pro.
ceedings become, that the GillenwateTs
convention. The Butler men assem-
bled and, after considerable turmoil,
succeeded in organizing, and after bun
combe resolutions, Roderick Random
Butler was declared the nomine, of
the colored voters, for Congress. The
Gillenwaters delegates, about one-tiird
of the entire number, denounced the
action of the convenS lion and left Bills
Gap In a Aery i'll hunor.
Another account is to the effect that
when the bolt occurred the Red Fo1 of
johnson numbered only seventy-ive
delegates, while Gillenwaters was lu-
merated by at least three times that
number. There will be lively work
from now until Novemberwith these tvo
Radical candidates in the feld-and
may his Satanic Majesty take the fore
most.

Gov. BAXTER has called the Legis-
lature together There is no question
that the body he has called Is the legal
Legislature of the State, and if, when
1t assemblies, 1t makes an application to
the United States to protect the State
against Mr.. Brooks violence, the
United States VIII have to do it.-LOls-
GSUiIje Commercial
All this affords a very simple solu-
ton of the Arkansas difficulty. under
the section Of the Federal Constitution
which provides that the United States
shall pr toct each # the States against
d nestle violence Ion the application
Of the Legislature, or Of the Executive
when the Legislature cannot be con-
vened. Baxter has only to prove that
the Legislature can be convened, by
actually getting it together, and its ap-
plication for aid against domestic vio-
lence takes precedence of any Governor.
Our Republican contemporary seems
co forget, however, that Grant and his
dynasty pay little respect to the pro-
visions of the constitution.

THE FUNDING QUESTION A DEAD
WSSUTE.

Although funding was not political |
measure, the UNION AND AMERICAN
thinks the Democrats should tacitly
endorse Brown, Burch & Co., by not
censuring them.-Memphis Avalanche.
Our Memphis critic might with as
much plausibility assert that we want
Democrats to ''tacitly endorse" L. @.
Houk and other Radicals who votedfor
the bill. 1t is not the tacit endorse
ment Of anybody that we seek, but the
cooperation of all classes against Rad
icalism, which has proved a curse both
IN State and nation. When even the
AUalGTache comedies that funding was
not a political measure" we see little
excuse for setting it up as an element
of political discord. We would, with
equal vehemence, deprecate any other
issue calculated or designed to distract
the people and invite a repetition of
1872. But the Avalanche persists:
We beg to remind the UNION AND
AMERICAN that the funding question
is not dead issue. 1t involves the I'M
portant question of future taxation
one which, it will occur to the reader,
must always remain live issue.
Yes, taxation will be a live issue SO
long as human society feels the need OF
government, and if our contemporary
confne itself to what it confesses IS
the one only live issue, it Will dismiss
funding forever. The latter has now
been the law for nearly two years, and
numerous contracts have been consum-
some old bond-holders who refuse to
fund, because they demand interest on
past-due coupons, which the law does
not authorize, all the State debt that
comes under its operation viii be fund
ed before the next Legislature meets.
Any law impairing the validity of con-
tracts is forbidden by the organic law
of the State. Hence, funding is
dead issue, and the only live
question that can be sprung, is total or
partial reputation, or as some prefer to
express it, on-payment. 1t is our firm
conviction that the present condition of
Tennessee viii justify neither. We
have given the facts and figures that
prove this, on the existing rate of taxa
ton. which is 80 per cent. less than the
previous rate. The State is to-day act
ually saving thousands OF dollars in the
way Of rebate by anticipating the July
interest. The January interest viii
likewise be paid before the Legislature
meets. After putting the hand to the
pillow, 1t Will not do to look back. When
we look beyond the present condition
and consider the bright prospects of
Tennessee's future, every motive of ex-
pedieDcy combines with principle
to forbid the suicidal policy
of non payment or Reputation. There
is bright promise of relief for the coun-
try at large from the oppressive mono
poles and eOrruptions of Radicalism.
This relief viii give the whole people
an impetus of real progress In which
Tennessee viii share. The only way in
which Tennesseans ecan contribute their
share to this work of relief, is by the
cooperation of the anti-Radical masses.
ANY division that invites multiplicity
of candidates viii be likely to continue
our present misrepresentation in Con-
gress.
