deal, j., What Was emlbraced in the
sphere OF the term encouraged" ~
Art. ri, sec. 0. ia the Conventions &C
ceptalion Of the term? Did the Con.
,en,ion intend the term to embrace as
much. or more, or less than the Com.
miltec indicated in their ReportY No
one, We presume, will say that they in
tended IL to embrace more. Then did
they intend IL to embrace as much, or
less? We are Of he opinion that they
intended it 10 embrace less; that is to
say, they intended it to embrace the
first suggestion OF the Committee, but
not the secoad. And this. we think.
will be evident to any one on II little
reelection. The second suggestion
WAS Of a dcbatable nature and would
have provoked controversy, many able
writer's upon political economy having
taken the negative side of the question,
But it seems that there was no debate
upon the general provision which was
ultimately adopted, and therefore the
probability is that the Convention did
not embrace the second suggestion
within the sphere Of the term ''encour-
aged" Nor was it necessary for them
to do so, in order that encouraged "
might be the proper term for them to
use in the provision in question. Web
ster says that "encourage' means ''to
animate; to %incite; to insplrit )" and
Mr.. Blount had declared in his speech
that the adoption Of the Committees
first suggestion would ne sufficient to
encourage capitalists to such An extent
as to make internal improvement ell
terprises a grand success.
We are driven, therefore, to the
conclusion that section 8 Of Art. XII
in the Constitution Of 1884 was simply
a general provision, which meant moth
ing in particular, and which was adopt
ed cut Of respect for ex Gov. William
Blount. And look at IL from what
ever standpoint we may, it affords not
even the shadow OF constitutional wal
rant for the %stupendous public debt
which the Legislature has piled up on
the shoulders Of the people. But now
what shall we do with this so-ealle
public debt?
Rome was in debt in the days OF
Julius Caesar; and, in order to relieve
the Republic from its embarrassment,
Caesar procured the establishment of a
law which provided that the interest
already paid should be subtracted from
the amount originally given for the
bonds, and that the remainder should
be paid to the bondiolders without in
%terest. This was the way in which the
Senate Of Rome dealt with what we
suppose to have been an honest debt
returned the principal without interest
But the great advantage which we en-.
joy is in having Il written Constitution.
This constitution is the touchstone BY
which we determine whether n reputed
public debt is q debt or not. And having
applied this test, and found that the
reputed public debt of Tennessee is
not, legally nor morally, a public debt.
We are under no obligation to go even
as far as Caesar did, but would be JUS
t;tiable in repudiaLing the whole OF it.
And il we repudiate it. there is no pow
or on earth that could make us pay it,
and no court in which the bondholders
have the right to-inslitute a suit.

From the Memphis Avalanche


Debts, National debts, State, county,
city and private debts, are the questions
which the public mind is now discus
sing. We are beginning as a people,
without regard to sections, to have
some conception Of what the civil war
destroyed andcost in dollars and cents
The authors of the Funding scheme in
Tennessee proceeded upon the idea
that the people Of The State lost moth
ing at all by the war, and the advo
Gates and supporters Of the measure
forgot in the hours Of personal corr.
forts and Injuries that tue people are
poor. II is not necessary to dispar.
age anything, but we state it as q fact
that the people Of the South are not so
we'll OFT to day as they were in 1865
Senator Gordon, Of Georgia, declared
this to be his opinion in regard to his
own State. and We believe it to be true
of all the others. The Southern States
excluding Kentucky and Missouri, owe
two hundred and ten millions. y,
course they cannot pay the debts. The
creditors do not expect the debts TO be
paid. The bondholders are not in any
instance asking or demanding the pai-
nent OF the interest; they prefer the
debt to be perpetual. and the interest
certain. Tennessee cannot pay the
interest on its bonded debt. Ii is true
it will he paid the LIST OF January, 1875,
as the Controller advises b%ondholders,
but after that the State will be in de.
fault. SIX per cent. interest is Il higher
rate than a prosperous people n pay
and the time has come when the bond
holders must make up their minds to
take less. The Industrial or laboriny
classes--that is, those who produce
and add to the produce OF the coun.
try-cannot much longer submit to
demands Of a money power, wl,i;h
seizes the earnings of the masses and
takes the lions share.
The next General Assembly Of Ten.
nessee would do well to lock into the
funding policy and the financial sys.
TEN it endorses and enforces. Ii
would do well to abolish the whole o!
it and substitute a better one, founded
upon the doctrine Of values and con.
sideration to the people, and the prin.
ciplc that three per cent. interest is the
highest rate OF interest any govern
ment can pay in justice to the tax
payers. 1t is the highest rate which
u be paid promptly without crippling
The resources Of the people pr weaken,
ing the security of the debt. The
work of pursalion must be applied
to all Southern securities; the legal
must be separated from the illegal and
fraudulent. and the doctrine that no
legal Investigation can lie had, or that
no legislation a he sustained which
sets aside injustice and nsury. mus, be
exploded. The abuse of the prinrlplc,
that the obligation of contracts mus,
not be violated, is too fragrant, cx-
tending to the protection of those who
rob States aud convert the Govern
menL into n robber of the people. The
sacred shield of cowardice in the DAYS
OF the reign of Jupiter over the Greeks
was not oftenener used to protect the
felon. The obligation Of contracts
should go no further than to protect
those made honestly and in good
faith, and not such as are founded up.
on wrong. oppression and fraud.

East Tennessee now claims the Sen

so acting, and gracefully yielding the
