THE FINANCIAL VOTE IN THE HOUSE.

The action of the House OF Representa-
tives in fixing the limit Of our National
legal tender notes at $500, COG, 900, does not,
in fact, increase our circulation but an ad-
ditional eighteen millions. The law as il
stood before the panic last September fixed
the limit at 1886, 900 900, but placed rs a
reserve in the hands of The Secretary of
the Treasury S44,OOOO 900, which, under
certain contingencies, was To be Vsed.
The panic swept over the country and u
strong pressure Was made upon Secretary
Richardson to put in circulation all OF that
reserve. He doub ed his au, hority, but
from time 60 time, Ia meet the current ex-
penditures Of the curr mt when the reven-
les grew rapidly less after the panic, he
has issued SO 900 900 of the reserve. So

Tennessee Iron Interests.

Mr.. Geo. r. Lewis, in letter to the NASH
vile Banner, in reply to n Pennsylvania
iron mans charge that our iron was not fit
for anything but iron rail heads, says of our
future:
Tennessee contains all that is neces-
sary to place the State in the front rank
of manufacturing States. Good climate,
rich soil coal and iron ore in abundance
Thomas Dunlap, Esq, of Philadelphia,
Secretary of the National Association of
Iron Manufacturers, stated in his report in
1873 OF the first importance as an iron
State, in point of mineral resources, Ten
nessee bids fair to soon become prominent
in the industry. East Tennessee possesses
deposits of ores Of great purity, and cspe-
cioiy Qd0Itcd to tie manufacture of Bcs-
| senior 1,ig-mctdi; that this section igHnJc
the site of great 8tccI lcorEs bciorc Hdny
gears, is ccrtdiR.n Mcfarland of Penn
sylvania, in his " Coal Regions of Amer.
ica," says: at is not improbable that,
within the next decade, the Valley of East
Tennessee will become vast iron manu-
featuring country, with numerous blast
furnaces and rolling mills bordering its
railroads, and with the slopes of the Cum
berland Mountain dotted with coal mines
and coke ovens. The good quality of her
semi bituminous coal, and her remarkable
deposits of iron ore are the basis for cities
which may be the Scrantons and Pitts
burgs of the South j. p. Lesley, ESQ,
the best geologist of Pennsylvania, says:
1.-The sum total of mineral fuel preserved
for the use of the inhabitants of the South"
| Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia
and Alabama,) is practically Infinite.
Every valley and raYine that issues from
the plateau, lengthens the outcrops, and
facilitates access to the beds.
In course of time, thousand collieries
will be stated in the mountain, and thou
sand iron works established on the ores at
its foot thousand villages, towns and
cities will grow in the broad limestone plain
before it; thousand factories and mills
will make these towns, and villages, and
cities, hum with life, and all this life will
base itself on the mountain COAL These
are eloquent and prophetic truths Mr.. Edi-
tor. No " tadpole and white elephant" in
these sentences. This Is the goodly land,
"whose stones are iron, and out Of whose
hills thou mayest dig brass"
That these States, Mr.. Editor, Virginia,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and Ala
bama, have better facilities than any of the
other States for the cheap production of
iron, and that they have advantages supe-
rior to every mineral region known to man
kind, and that they do hold the scepter of
the iron world, is no longer q debatable
question, it is an incontrovertible truth.

WEDNESDAY, ::;::: APRIL !, 1874
THE SENATE FINANCE compRoM1sE.

The compromise financial bill reported
by the Senate Finance Committee in its
general features is as follows: Tue
frs: section limits the maximum
issue of United States notes .at
S3S2, 100000. The second section pro
yides tina. on January lst, 1916, the
Government shall pay to any person hold
ing notes TO the amount OF 81 600, or any
multiple thereof, coin on demand, or in
lieu thereof a coin bond payable in ten
years or sooner at the option of the Gov
eminent, the bond to be of fifty dollars
Or some multiple, and 10 bear interest at
i've per cent, and shall be free
from taxation, national, State or
municipal. The Secretary of the
Treasury may reissue such redeemed notes
70 buy Government bonds or meet the cur
rent payments for the public service.
The third section provides that national
banking associations may be organized in
any State or Territory until the amount of
per capita circulation in such States or
territories shall equal that of New York
State. All new banks to be governed by
the same laws as nov control National
banks.
The fourth section provides that for every
million Of circulating notes issued under
the above provision, the Secretary of the
Treasury may retire seventy per cent.
Of the United States notes that go
to make up the S3s2,OO0,OOO OF cur
rency first provided for, and that such
contraction may begin within thirty days
after the issue Of new national bank notes
begins, and continue until the volume of
currency is reduced to $500, 600, 900, and to
carry out this contraction he may sell after
due notice, United States bonds for circu-
lating notes so retired.
The fifth section provides that all nation
al banks shall hereafter hold as part
of their reserve one-fourth of the
coin they receive as interest on
their. Government bonds, aud that hereaf-
Ter only one-fourth of the reserve now pre-
s5ribed by law for national banking asso-
Citations shall consist of balances due to an
association available for the redemption of
is circulating notes in cities of redemption.
The bill, which will be reported by the
consent of all Of the members of the COM
mittee, Will receive the support of only
three, two members will oppose it because
it does not contemplate sufficient expan-
sion; two others will probably vote against
it because it contemplaIes too much expan.
sion, aud three, understood to be Sherman,
Scott and Morrill,, will support it.
Fenton and Morrill,, Of Vermont, and
Bayard favor specie payments. Ferry and
Wright favor expansion, and Sherman
and Scott are compromise men. The bill
will meet with strong support as compro-
mise measure.

RICHMOND TO CUMBERLAND GAP.

Among the railroad projects Of Virginia
now earnestly pressed, is one for narrow
gauge road from Richmond to Pound Gap,
which is on the dividing line between Wise
county, Va, and Letcher county, Ky.
a new company has just been chartered
by the Legislature, under the title of the
Richmond and -AIleghaney Narrow
Gauge Railway Company. A correspond
ent says of the prospects of the road:
The charter is one of the most liberal
in its provisions ever granted by a Virginia
Legislature. The region of country TO be
reversed abounds in enormous undevel-
CD wealth, and the route is exceedingly
favorable for a railway, with comparatively
little heavy work And if the line is taken
up by Kentucky at Pound Gap and pro-
longed TO Louisville, it will be the shortest
outlet to the sea geography admits of"
for your beautiful and prosperous city.
The distance from here TO Pound Gap is
less than 500 miles. Tue line runs through
nine counties that are without railway
facilities, and in which the anxiety of the
people is so great TO obtain such an i'm
proVement, that there il no shadow OF
doubt that, % soon AS the forms of law can
be complied with, we shall obtain the full
amount of subscription required of the
counties, and very large private subscrip'
lions in lands, mostly mineral bearing,
thus laying "A solid basis of credit on which

way aud iron magnaIes to build and eguil

hard money legislators fear from initiation
has already been inflicted. If any in fact,
follows such a policy. While the bill
which has thus passed the House then
provides for, and legalzes an issue of S44,-
900, 600, it in fact, adds but $4,000, 900 to
the present volume of legal tender circu-
lation.
The vote on this law was not party
vote. Its Importance and its influence
upon our future politics makes it worth
while TO examine the vote in detail.
In the various votes New England was
solid on one side, the Middle States We're
divided, and the South and West solid
on the other. OF the Southern and
Western members only twenty three voted
in the negative. OF the democratic men,
bers Of the House who were present fifty
two voted for the S4OO, 900, 900, and twenty
two against it. OF the republicans, ia
voted in the affirmative and "a in the neg
alive.
The Tennessee delegation voted solid for
the increase to $500 OOO,O 900, with the ex.
ception of Judge Butler and Num- who
were not present.

THAT interesting question in natural
history now under discussion before the

complexion of the next State administra-

Ms. SPEAR, of Pennsylvania, has intro
duced bill in Congress to pay women in
the employ of the Government the same
rates az men. There is no reason why
they SHOULD not have the same pay for the
same labor. No one will undertake to
give a reason. 1t has always been so, hut
such a custom is a relic of barbarism. 1t
might have answered very we'll in the
dark ages, but in the nineteenth century,
we presume, there are few who, after re-
Election, will contend that woman should
not receive the same compensation for
similar labor as men. 1t is a matter Of
surprise that there are those who will argue
that good female teacher or clerk should
be paiI less than men.

PUBLIC sentiment is gradually growing
healthier on the subject of preserving
peace. 1t is beginning to be understood
that courts are instituted for the protection
of law-abiding citizens, by thepunishment
Of criminals. Justice, as we'll as mercy,
is being taken into consideration by those
whose business it is to see the laws of the
land enforced. Vigorous courts and vigor-
Gus prosecuting attorneys are no moreneces-
sary to this end than intelligent, manly,
and efficient jurors. Our best men shrink
fromsuch service as sitting on juries, never
thinking that it is their duty sometimes to
do it. A man who stands or sits around u
court room that he may be selected on a
jury, IN order to obtain the small stipend
allowed Tor such service is unsafe and I'M
tit for the duties. GOOD and lawful !"
men ought TO be summoned and chosen,
and they oughC to consent to serve.
