tunity to speak for himself, and to ex-
plain an anonymous letter, the author

said letter being the basis of the charge

AT the close of war the debt of
Tennessee was $40, 105. 900; on the LIST
of January, fS72, it was $45,6S8,OO0
Who administered the government of
the State from 1865 to 1872? The
Radical party, through Federal APP
pointments and Federal bayonets.
Who, then, is responsible for the i'm
mense accumulation of the debt dur
ing that period? Certainly not the
taxpayers Of Tennessee. Yet the
bondholders, who ought to look to the
Federal government for pay, are indig-
nant because our people will not starve
themselves 70 pay the interest on a
debt which they had no agency in ere
ating. The same is the case with every
southern State which enjoyed the
blessing Reconstruction, inaugural
ed by A. j., the immaculate states

THE only basis for convertible cur
rency is a healthy commerce and a
prosperous people; and these can ex-
list only under an honest and compe-
tent administration within the strict
letter of the Constitution. The first
steps to secure such an administration,
then the rest will follow as effect fol-
lows cause. To begin at the other end
is like undertaking to build from the
roof downwards. A gold basis, in the
present financial condition of the
country, is in our opinion, dangerous
delusion, and whatever the intention,
can have no other effect than to give
capital additional power to Cypress la
Dor, and place production within the
control of specializing rings and mo-
nopolies.
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1875-07-17

The arrest of Cortina, by the Mex
lean authorities, inficts a damaging
blow to the third term scheme. 1t
was evidently the policy of Grant and
his keepers to foster the raids of the
Mexican bandit, to an extent which
would justify declaration of war at the
moment when such declaration would
most effeetually subserve the purpose
of Withdrawing the public eye from
Radical villainies and fixing it upon
Grant as the right man for the emer-
gency created by his own foul ambi-
ton. This was Grants last trump,
but it cannot win because Mexico
saw his hand in time to defeat
his game, and Texas is more indebted
to Mexico than to the administration
for the protection of its border against
the thief and murderer.

he protests his innocence of certain
Intentions, and would have certain
things explained as quizzing and
enigmatical only.
But the committee could not escap pc
the conclusion, from the evidence be-
fore them, that John w. Hammer, Sr.,
is not only guilty of what is improper
and reprehensible in the highest de-
gree in Christian man and minister,
but that his conduct in this afflir de-
serves the formal verdict-tlsat he Is
guilty Of insatorality IN writing letter
to young lady, dated june %, APP
parentiy designed to corrupt her, and
to seduce her from the path of virtue,
and couched in. terms intimating a
readiness to be the Instrument of her
ruin.
Whereupon the Bishop pronounced
the suspension Of John w. Hammer,
Sr., from the ministerial office, until
the next session of the Tennessee An
nual Conference
Suspension is the sentence fixed by
the law after verdict of guilty under
such circumstances. The Annual Con-
ference only can pass the highest CEN
sure of communication. To that
every travelling preacher is finally
amenable. The Committee of Investi-
CATION is provided for the intervals OF
the Aruual Conference, to arrest ex-
IRENE cases.
The committee, tits understood. de-
liberated with great friendl;ness to the
accused, but came at last TO unanim
Gus conclusion.
When the young lady, whose name
has been so unpleasantly connected
with the case, fni,hed her testimony
aud left to take the tain home, the
Bishop took occasion to saaqk her foI
attending on his summons, at such in.
convenience to herself, and also assn.
ed her that however the case might
result, he had no doubt that iier :,
putation for virtue and purity woald
be untarnished, and he believed thai
the committee would be of the SAME
! mind.
All the evidence taken in the case
and the verdict returned and the jour
nal of proceedings were sealed up, anc
will be forwarded to the Tennesset
Annual Conference which meets il
Fayetteville next October.
