NASHVILLE MARKETS.

UNION AND AMERICAN OFFICE,
NASHVILLE, Sept. Is.
During the past week we have noticed
continued though very gradual improve
ment in nearly all kinds of trade. The
fall trade is backward opening, but BUSH
ness is, and promises to remain in a healthy
condition.
Nothing of interest has traspired in the
cotton market since our last weekly review.
The movement has been exceedingly light
and the utmost quiet has prevailed. The
transactions reported to-day are a fair ave
rage of the daily transactions of the week.
There were sales of about IS hhds. of
tobacco last Thursday, sustaining former
quotations.
There has been no change in the price Of
lard for a week, but the meat market has
advanced to still higher figures with the
promise Of further appreciation. Business
has fallen off in activity somewhat, but
nevertheless, the exceeding scarcity of meat
in Southern markets has been a sufficient
cause to force up prices.
Since our last review wheat, bran, corn
and meal have been in better demand and
have advanced.
The country produce business has been
active at very regular prices. The advance
on eggs ceased at Ice and a decline followed.
Amongst groceries sugars strengthened
during the early half of the week and be-
came steady at present quotations. Coffee
suffered further decline. The grocery trade
continues very quiet.
The receipts of cattle at the stock yards
during the week amounted to 10; hogs,
215; sheep, 500. Prices have ruled steady,
supply and demand having regularly
equalized each other. The season for ship
ping horses and mules South has opened,
and the movement is already growing into
importance, as there is hardly a day but a
few car loads are forwarded.

put up and sold, it would not at a fair
cash valuation, bring enough to pay the
public debt, the unpaid taxes, and
the private obligations of the people. In
a word the State is bankrupt, and the
only reason it is not in a bankruptcy
court is that there is no law to force a
State into bankruptcy It is very we'll
known that, with very few exceptions,
the political eomorants who lord it over
these States are sustained by the radi-
cal party. Now do the men of Tennessee,
who under BrOwnlOw learned something
of radical oppression, propose by their
Indifference to political questions to see
their State placed in the condition of the
States named above? If they do not,
they will henceforth advocate the
thorough organization Of all the eleuents
in Tennessee opposed to radical rule.
Let it be understood that we do not urge
the voters, particularly of our own coun-
ty, to enter upon the work of organizing
now, but the sentiments expressed in
this article merit their thoughtful con-

The Next Governor.


In another column will be found an
article from the Chattanooga Times CON-
mending our late fellow tnWnsman,
Judge Jno. j 7. Snesd, for the position
of Governor. We know that the name
OF this distinguished gentleman has be- n
used without his knowledge or consent.
He now holds one of the most exalted
positions within the gift of the people
and could gain nothing by becoming Gov
ernor. The Judicial ermine has hung
gracefully around him and he now stands
before the people of his State without
spot or biemish. Without doubt the
already high Office of Governor would be
exalted were be to fill it He has often
said that he would not accept the posi-
ton, and we do not know that he could
be induced to change his mind. But we
do know that no better man could be
selected to lead the Conservative party
| than John l.. I. Sneed He is liberal
and progressive and is just the man for
the times. We have no doubt that he
would add more strength to the COnser'
vative party than any man in the State.
| If he should consent to run, we would
give him our earnest and unqualified
| upport-iSOmeTriLI Falcon.
We print the above that our readers
may know that there is a probability of
having such a man as Judge Sneed for
Governor. When the proper time comes
we will publish facts in this connection
full to OVERLOOKING with wholesome
qualification. Judge Sneed is the man
of all others-if we can get him, and he
is not one of those who are likely to
tur deaf. ear to the appeals of men
who repose so much confidence and trust
in him in times Of need-to lead the
anti>radical hosts to victory in Tenness-
ee. If be is nominated by the Democra>
cy, and accepts the nomination, then the
radicals ard disOrganize may do their
utmost-they will be but shiny sea-
weed in the track of the political storm
of publication. Ifhe should consent to
run t0e acould gire him our earnest and
| unqualified support.

REPUTATION.

The Clarks ville Chronicle. noticing the
Memphis move for State tax oftwenty
cents, remarks.
"There was time when; IN our juig-
ment, partial reputation would have

had freed itself from the curse of Rad
zeal rule, a careful investigation should
have been made, of its liabilities, care.
fully separating the legal from the lille
gal bonds, and all of the latter should
have been repudiated, allowing only so
much of the carpet-bag issue as would
suffice. for the economical administers
ton of de .fdctO government Instead
of pursuing this policy, the Legislature
enacted that the railroads might pay of
their Indebtedness to the State in its
bonds. Consequently the Browplow issue
being either illegal, or Of doubtful author
ity, were the cheapest in the market,
and these the railroads bought up and
paid into the Treasury of the State. In
this way the only bonds which might
have been honorably repudiateG, were
legalized and accepted in payment of
debts, leaving the bona fde bonds of the
State to be redeemed by the heavy drafts
upon the pockets of the taxpayers. The
people it seems, will now be asked to
repudiate an honest debt after having
paid off the bogus obligations imposed
by the thieving ring of swindling carpet
bagers and native traitors.
Every honest man in the State will
spurn such request and those who
make it are as blind as bats

Railroad Convention.

In our last issue we made mention of
the fact that the friends and advocates
of the Memphis and Knoxville Railroad
would meet in the city of Memphis on
Tuesday, the 18th day of the present
month; the object being to bring the
important matters involved squareIy and
fairly before the people of that city es.
peciaIly and the public generally, as
concerns the early construction of the
road. We confidently believe that this
proposed meeting of able and in Auential
gentlemen from the different counties
and towns interested will result most
favorably. AS We have said before,
many times and oft" there is merit in
the enterprise, and when fairly investiga.
ted, will surely awaken lively interest
IN the minds of the enterprising citizens
of the great city which the road is des-
tined to benefit more than all others
Certainly our good neighbors of the
Bluff City will not keep their eyes closed
nor their ears hermetically sealed wher
the counties of Giles, Lawrence, Wayne
Hic kman, Hardin, Henderson, McNairy
HHrdeman and Fayette come knocking
ct their very doors and pleading for tn,
privilege of driviuga lively and contin-
uous trade with them. Every man whc
can attend the meeting should do so, an
thus give double assurance of his earnes
friendship for the road. Action is wha
is needed now. Let us have it and tn
Memphis and Knoxville Railroad is a
certain to be built within the next tw
or three years as Memphis will be it
western terminus We ask our exchang
es, those in the least Interested, to warr
up on this subject and do their Who'll
duty to great enterprise, which in il
very nature, is destined to be of immens
advantage to many communities and
the State itself. No road built or pre-
posed will develope the natural resource
Of Tennessee more than this, and n
enterprise now before the people

Valuable Statistics.

We gather some Interesting statistics
from the Memphis appeal in regard to
the growth of that city since they com
menced building railroads.
In 1850, the year they voted a subs
scriptiOn to the Memphis IL Charleston
Road of 500,O 900, the city only had tax
able property to the amount of s., 000,.
600 (three millions of dOllars;) now her
taxable property amounts to S2S,2l7, 900
Then she had slaves as taxables; now
she has not. That city has only subs
scribed for railroads 81 100000, Of which
she had to pay only 100000, having
realized par value for her Memphis &
Charleston stock, which amounted to
100000. Her city debt is 81, $685. 81,
OF which it appears only $SO0,GO was
for railroads. 1t thus appears the $780,
600 she has paid for railroads has caused
her to make an increase in her property
since 1850 of So, 2l7, 1863.
How wonderful has been this growth,
considering the many disadvantages I'M
der which she has labored, and which
her citizens hope will not again affiiGt
her. As the commercial Metropolis of
West Tennessee, with which we hope
to be soon directly connected by rail, We
rejoice 10 her prosperity and hope she
may in future escape the calamities with
which she has been so sorely afflicted.
Her railroad subscriptions have amount
ed in all to only SI,300,0O0 whilst her
CITY debt is 81, 585,08l.
Those who attribute the heavy debt
and high taxes in Memphis to railroad
subscriptions know nothing of her true
condition. Railroads have made her,
hilst bad government has cursed, with
heavy debts and high taxes from which
her railroads alone can save. her.-PW-
