of $1OO,OOO,OeO throughout the years 1855 ana
1866 WAS practically unemployed. We beg our
readers to bear in mind that we make this ar
oument solely against Mr.. Kelley. We certainly
do maintain that the one hundred millions
of unemployed money held by the banks IN
1885 exerted q most powerful influence IN
stimulating the specuiatiOns which ensued and
the indebtedness which was subsequently
created, lust as we maintain that the unem-
ployed money which is now accumulating IN
banks all over the country will be productive
of exactly the same consequences. But, as
against Mr. Kelley, we are entitled to make
this deduction of one hundred millions from
the currency of the country in 1865. lie says
tho expansion of loans and discounts by the
banks was caused by contraction OF

A sTATE COyyEyTIoN.

The question of when and how the
Democratic State Convention shall be
called this year, having arisen, togeth-
er with some groundless rumors about
the attitude of the State Executive
Committee on the subject-the follow
ing from the Memphis Registerof April
IA, will be of interest:
ssThe Sparta Indez stated not many
days since that Col. T. B. Murray, one
of the State Democratic Executive
Committee, had said that the committee
had determined not to call a conven-
ton this year. The statement was
copied IN the Avalanche and other pa
pers, and is still going the rounds of
those journals which are desirous to
witness the downfall of the Democratic
party. Col. John G. Burch is the
Chairman of the Executive Committee,
and is now on visit to this city. The
editors of the Register have called on
Col. Burch and made inquiry in regard
to the matter He authorizes us to
state that there has been no call for a
meeting of the committee, no meet
ing has been held, and no consulta-
tions taken place on the subject, so far
as he is aware. that when the proper
time arrives the committe will be called
together for the purpose of taking such
action as may be deemed proper for the
assembling of State convention. Col
Burch thinks that it is probable that
Col. Murray has been misunderstood,
or misrepresented in the matter. So
far from the Democratic party or its
committee in Tennessee doing any act
which would even s4uint at dissolution,
or permitting an election IN the State
to go by default, they are more alive
than ever TO the obligation they have
taken upon themselves to save the
State from the ravenous wolves of rad
icalism, who plunged it in debt almost
inextTieable during the short period
they We're in power. The Independ-
ents' so-called, will be disappointed. |

Crevasses Being Closed, buf the Rain

NEW ORLEANS, April 16.-The McCul-
len crevasse, below Baton Rouge, is re-
ported under control and will doubtless be
closed. The Bonnet Care crevasse is
gradually increasing. Heavy showers this
morning, and severe rain storm has pre-
vailed since. AT noon the wind was last
yeering to north and blowing hard. The
river is very rough, increasing the danger
of overflow. All the creyasses on the Low
er Mississippi, except at Bolivar Landing,
Partieux, Bonnet Care, Belle Chase and
Verboi are reported closed. An impression
preqails that the storm this evening will
cause the inundatiOn of additional planta-
