Tennessee Coal and Iron

DR.. r. {. Gardner, of New York, has
purchased ] $50 acres in the Sequatchie
valley, near Jasper, Tenn. The prop
erty is known as the Moore Coal Banks.
The iron ore in these lands extends
about nine miles. DIR. Gardner is a
large capitalist, and intends to work
the property he has purchased. He
has, like many others, discovered that
much of the Tennessee coal is as good
as that of Pittsburg, and that better
quality of iron can be made in this State
than the great iron State of Pennsylva-
mia, at a cost of eight to ten cents less
per pound than in the latter State, and
rs cheap as in Great Britain The
building Of tlEe Memphis and Knoxville
Railroad will open up access to the inn
mense beds of rich iron ore which lies
in Hickman, Perry, Wayne and other
counties Immediately east of the Ten
nessee river, and the result viii be that
capital from all quarters viii seek in
vestment there. The great supply OF
coal and iron and the immense water
facilities for manufacturing in this
State arc attracting the attention of
men of capital and sound Judgment.
All that Tennessee has TO do, in order
to develope her great coal and mineral
resources, is to increase the facility for
bringing these articles to market.
Build railroads to the coal and iron
fields and capital will go 10 such invest
ments, the investing OF capital brings
labor, and labor brings prosperity

SCHEDULE.
GOV. BROWN.
He Reviews the Funding Policy
and the Public Debt History.


The Memphis appeal of the 26th and
the Union and american of the 2sth con-
tains correspondence between 172 lead
ing citizens of Memphis and Gov.
Brown. The former invite the Govern
or to address them az some convenient
time upon the all-absorbing subjects of
State finances and taxation. The Gov
ernor announces his purpose to comply
with the request at future time, "but
ia the meantime, having no disposition
to maintain silence on these vital ques-
tions," proceeds to give his views, and
in doing so gives an elaborate review of
the Funding policy, and an exhaustive
history of the public debt and its reduc-
ton. In 1870 the public debt amounted
to the appalling sum of S43,O52,G52; %.
During his administration and through
the policy adopted by the Legislative
and Executive branches of the State
Government this enormous debt has
been reduced over half and the taxes re-
duced from 60 to 80 cents on the hum
dred dollars. lie does not pretend to
say that the legislation which brought
about this result was wise or unwise, but
this is the result, and the people may
decide for themselves as to the wisdom
of the financial policy of his admins
tratlon. His exhibit of the results thus
far obtained from the execution of the
funding bill, is a complete and unan-
swerable vindication Of that measure.
Instead of burdening the people with
interest upon interest, he proves clearly
that it has saved 81 ,124 ,242: 81 to the
State, while its execution has cost the
State less than four thousand dollars.
He effectually eXplodes the popular err
ror that the whole debt of the State,
S25, 100000, has been postponed forty
years, and that at the end of that period
the State win have paid $60,000,O00 of
interest without reducing the principal.
The whole amount Of the funded bonds
viii be only 50, 900, 600, and these are re-
deemable at the option OF the State.
The balance of the State debt remains
Just as it was before. The Governor
styles the civil rights bill ''the social
rights bill" and says it is fraught with
alarming consequences. He appeals to
the people to stand firmly to the conser-
yative party, and to vote unanimously
against the negro equality party at the
approaching August election.

The Bankrupt State.

Under this caption a correspondent of
the Courier Journal gives some startling
facts and figures concerning the six
years of Radical rule i'm South Carolina.
According to this exhibit Gov. Scott
and his contederates stole $l3,200,000.
Moses and his gang have only stolen
81 100000, but the reason is found in
the fact that they could lay their hands
on no more. Like old Earl Yniol, their
store was small but their hearts were
great. For all this lavish expenditure,
involving a present debt of $l7 100000,
there is not a mile of railroad nor a foot
of canal to show. Moses, with a salary
of $500 has, within two years, bought
the Hampton place, at Columbia, the
finest homestead in the United States,
and lives in princely style. The CORES
pendent of the Courier Journal, who
writes from the capital of the plumber
ed and bankrupt State, considers the
people as given over TO pillage and de-
struction. Any man who is a candi-
date for Office in Tennessee, with a radi-
cal competitor, can, by taking the arti-
Gle refarrnd 10 which can he found in
the Courier Journal of the Sd, without
using any other argument, drive him
from the field. 1T is a terrible picture
OF series OF outrages uneNampled in
the history of the civilized world, and
yet President Grant could at any time,
by a single word, have put a stop to
them, II he had cared to do so.

The State Bank to be Revived

The State Bank to be Revived.
Comptroller Burch has written and
published an open letter in which he
announces his purpose to recommend to
the next Legislature as a measure of
revenue the re-establishment of the
Bank of Tennessee, with branches
suitably located throughout the State.
He thinks it would prove a wise meas
ure of revenue, and greatly relieve the
people from the burden of taxation.
lie refers to the profits of the old bank
with only a limited capital and eireula-
ton, and its assistance in relieving tax
alton, furnishing exchange, circulating
medium, &C., &c. He says all the ar
guments that were used with effect in
sustaining the old bank before the war
viii apply with ten-fold force in favor
of re-establishing it. He says the ma
tional law prohibiting State Banks is
simply unconstitutional and therefore
null. Col. Burch concludes his letter as
follows:
q do not hesitate to say that, with a
circulation of $13,500,000, the Bank of
Tennessee and its branches would, at the
end of the first six months from its es-
adjustment, place large sum from its
net profits on loans, discounts, eXchang-
es, etc, TO the credit of the treasury, and
/ that within two years from its esta blish-
ment the net profits, after paying ths
interest on the bonds issued and sold t.
obtain the bank capital, would be sufi-
GENTLY great to pay from dIfe-half 6
| tWo-thirds of the taxes which, would
Otherwise have to be levied to meet tho
obligations of the State. l do not think
\ it eXtraYagant TO predict that within ter
| years
/ TUE ENTIRE ANNUAL INDEBTEDNESS
of the State would be paid from the net
] profits of the bank.
In the foregoing, have said nothing

! pie of the State, which its mining, man

great political advantages that would &C
crue in building up in every State

tional bank monopoly, which VIII ulti
mately prove the greatest power in sup

bank system would prove a powerful
opponent to Capitalization and power

How 10 Reduce Taxation.

In the course of his speech at the
Memphis railroad convention the other
day. Mr.. b. NJ. Tillman, Representative
in the Legislature from McNalFy county,
made some wise suggestions, which we
hope had a favorable effect upon our
Memphis friends. he said that because
Memphis and Shelby county had grown
more rapily IN wealth and population
than other parts OF the State, Shelby
county paid nearly one-fifth of the State
taxes. He might have added that Shell
by and Davidson pay more than one
fourth OF the entire revenue collection
for State purposes. In this same speech
Mr.. Tillman maintained that il a road
were built and the ore banks of Wayne,
Lawrence, Lewis and Hickman We're
opened, capital by millions would flow
into these counties; furnaces, rolling
mills, and factories innumerable would
be erected; and lands now assessed at
fifty cents per acre would be worth
from twenty-five to fifty dollars. Similar
improvements in the other counties of
the State where minerals are known to
abound, would result in an untold in
crease of our wealth. As our resources
are developed and our wealth increased, ,
we may reduce our rate of taxation
even as low as twenty cents on the hum
dred dollars, and at the same time pre-
serve our credit and pay our State debt.
This Is a much better plan than To talk
of not meeting the interest on our bonds,
which simply means quasi reputation,
and would drive capital and enterprise
fTym our state, and make il so that taxa
ton would eventually be burdensome.
Let us keep our credit intact and devise
all ways and means to Increase our
wealth, make our lands more valuable
and more sought after, and then we can
safely decrease the rate of taxation.
We have had an uphill business in
righting the State after Redieal rule,
and now that we are about to succeed,
let ms not spoil all shat has been dOaae.
