state TO meet all the demands made upon It..
There is no doubt that there are many men IN the
State wno by reason OF the panic OF 1878 and the
drought OF last season, are In desperate strait.
Much or ne clamor proceeds from them. They
are using al their energy to meet their liabilities,
and are, therefore, opposed TO anything having
tendency 10 depress them, though 10 be OF a light
nature But the cry has been SO persistent that
all alike proclaim 'hard times.n For instance, q
farmer in my county came 10 me tie other day
aud complained OF ahard timesn / asked him
whether ne owed anything. He replied, no."
Whether he bought as much ana lived as well as
he ever did. He said "Yes.n "WeIl, then" said,
"you have very little to grieve you"
OoRREsPoNDENT-wil you recommend any ac-
ton the part OF the Legislature relative to the
Centennial celebrations
Governor PoRTEK-Not until after the discussion
OF the financial problems is over.

Governor PoRTER-An adequate appropriation
for the conspicuous display OF Tennessees i'm

CHANCE FOR IMMIGRANTS.
CORRESPONDENCE Tennessee win be en-
abied to make as great display as any other
State in the Union
Governor PoRTER-Yes; and am decidedly In
favor or placing her conspcuously In the lore
ground and 50 far my ability extends 1t will be
greater resources than ours We have ores OF the
greatest and The richest variety. There is no
limit to it's coal, its iron, its marble. plain ana
varegated Timber OF the first quality and or
every description grows here IN the greatest
abundance. The products OF the soil are un-
equaed. We can raise anything we want, and II
we desire make three crops in ono season.
We have no gold mines OF any
consequence, but we have plenty or lead, copper
and silver and other ores. II is not egotistical in
me nor an overweenng love for my state to say
that she could eclipse Pennsylvania in display OF
her resources. They have been comparatively un-
known, simply for the want or capltai to develop
them.
CoRREsPoNDENr-Do you not think that such an
exhibition OF Tennessee's wealth as you propose
would be worth a score OF immigration bureaus9
Governor PoRrER-I must admit that do. am
thoroughly satisfied that II Tennessee should
make the exhibition 1t ought we should have
such stream OF immigration TO 1t as she had
never before known, and that is just what we
want. II we had more OF 1t property would
soon increase to such valuation as to make
even the much.talKed about State debt an easy
burden to carry. Besides, our climate is so mild
that our winters are comparatively light-so much
so that instead OF having to build big barns. as
they do up North, cattle turned out to Craze |;
the dwellings instead are built large and open
for Tennesseean believes In having plenty OF
pure, fresh air.

Views OF the Governors Of Illinois, West
Virginia and Tennessee.
PEACE AND PROSPERITY
Louisiana's Efforts to See and
Be Seen in 1875.
It Must BE a General Reunion of
Americans.

We give to-day third instalmeut OF letters con-
tanning the views OF Governor Beveridge OF I'LL
nois; Governor JACOBS, OF West Virginia; Cover
nor Porter, OF Tennessee, and Governor Kellogg,
OF Louisiana, in reference TO the Philadelphia
Exhibition. Though somewhat diverse on gen.
eral matters, the leading idea throughout is that,
the honor OF the country, the celebration must
be successful In all respects. Governor Porter
says, "This celebration ought to draw all the
States together, and ought TO be the means OF
disslpatng and forever plotting out the curse OF
sectlonalism and sectional feeling"

GOVERNOR JACOBS ANXIOUS, But IN DOUBT
THE STATE LEGISLATURE MUST PROVIDE THE
WAYS AND MEANS.
CHARLESTON, March 81, 1875.
Leaving out the patriotic spirit which animates
and eniivens the breast oil the average West yir-
Riuian, the chance afforded by the Philadelphia
Centennial to exhibit the mineral OF tubs
infant State makes that event a matte. OF con-
siderable concern and still greater interest here
To develop these great resources is the grand
problem, the solution OF which agi tates the minds
OF all West Virginia patriots and statesmen, con-
sequently the eagerness with which they embrace
the golden opportunity Afforded by the Centennial
OF 1876 is striGingly observable.
GOVERNOR JACOBS VIEWS.
In reference TO this matter a reporter OF the
HERALD called upon Governor Jacobs to ascertain
his views. Tne Governor was found at his resi-
dence, seated near bright coal are, in the quiet
enjoyment OF pipe, the fragrant wreaths OF
smoke tesufying that the weed he used was a
product OF the sacred soil or the Mother state. In
reply TO various inquiries he SAID that though
he strongly favored the great aims and objects OF
the Centennial, he had made no reference to 1t In
his last annual Message to the Legislature, which
Dody he was glad to state was ABOUT to pass law
appointing three commissioners whose duty IL
will be to zee that West Virginia Is properly rep.
resented at the Exhibition.
Hon. A. X. Boteler, OF this State, a former
member OF the United States Congress, is one or
the vice Presidents Of the Centennial, and as he
Is great personal friend OF the Governor he Will
have the moral aid and support OF the Executive
In all he undertakes IN its DeaaIL 'Indlvlduallym
said the Governor in explanation OF his position,
II strongly favor the Centennial; but deemed 1t
proper and polite not 10 advise the Legislature on
the subject, but rather TO let that body act for
ftsalf / wish the state represented but thing
the legislative branch OF the government should
control the matter An appropriation fully ade-
quate TO the means ana financial standing OF the
state will be made, to insure a first class repre-
sentaton.n Tue Governor added that West vir-
gtnla would make show that would surprise
even the great iron aud coal state-Pennsyl-
vania.

The market opened under the favorable in
fuence of increased steadiness at Liverpool,
where the sales were IL 600 bales, and an ad-
vance at New York of .c in spots and about
LEO in futures, which inspired factors with
still greater confidence and led them to ad-
here with unabated 6rmness to their previous
pretensions, which for several days have been
above the ruling rates in the actual sales.
Brokers having peremptory orders for the
higher grades were consequently compelled
to pay an advance Of fully !c in previous quo
