Still here and
Doing a Good Business
THE table of Sewing Machine Sales for
4 1879 shows that our sales last year
amounted to 232.444 two hundred and
thirty-two thousand, four hundred and forty
four) Machines, being large increase over
the sales of the previous year (1s72.)

CEED THOSE OF ANY OTHER
COMPANY. for the period named, by the
number Of 1925 MACHIN ES, or near
ly double those of any other Company.
1t may be further stated that the sales OF
1878, as compared with those of 1879. show a
relatively larger increase, beyond the sales
of other makers than of any other year.
For instance, in 1872 we sold 5000 more
Machines than any other Company, whereas,
in 1873, the sales were
I3,2 Machines in Excess of Our
Highest Competitor.
These figures are all the more remarkable,
for the reason that the sales of the principal
Companies in 1878 are LESS TIL AN
THEIR SALES IN 1879; whereas, as
has been shown. OUR SALES HAVE
LARGELY INCREASED.
The account of sales is from sworn returns
made to the owners Of the Sewing Ma
chine Patents.
It viii hardly be denied, that the superb

popularity in the household is unques ton

RELIEF MEASURES.

however recognize the existing con-
dition of'affairs, the shrinkage in the
value of every species of property
brought about by the contraction of the
currency and the want of a sufficient
circulating medium; the terrible dis
tress in the country, growing out of a
drought unparalleled in this region,
which has almost caused a famine in
the land. In view of these facts it is
not right and just that the holders of
our securities should be liberal in
making terms with Us, and should they
not be willing to enter into satisfactory
arrangements with a noble people stri-
wing to maintain their credit and pre-
serve their honor, by meeting their OBJ
legations under the most adverse cir
cumstancesp
believe an arrangement can be made
which will greatly relieve the people in
/ their hour of distress and at the same
time improve the value of Tennessee
Bonds. What that arrangement is it is
not necessary and would not be proper
now to state. This question of State
credit should be taken from the arena
of politics and placed on a firm footing

MORAL OBLIGATION OF A STATE.

l will here also say that do not be-
lieve a State any more than an individ-
ual has the moral right to foul or refuse
to meet its obligations In order to de-
stroy its credit and thereby depreciate
the value of its securities for the pur-
pose of buying them in at reduced rates.
This not only destroys the credit of the
State but affects the moral tone of the
whole community, for whatever State
does, private citizens feel they have a
right to do.

had there been wise legislation even
since the war. The debt contracted be-
tween 1865 and 1869, the legality of
which many doubted, is the main cause
of our present financial difficulties.
That debt however has, by the legisla-
ton of 1869 and 1870, been legalized
and most of it is paid, leaving as our
present debt that which was contracted
fairly and legitimately before the war
with its accumulated interest. At the

tinued with but partial abatement until
the following night, the result of which
was a complete blockade of the rail and
wagon roads, not only in this county,
but throughout the State. No trains
left the depot here on Tuesday, and it
was not until late at night that two en-
gines succeeded in bringing few cars
through from the south. The western
train was showed in at point just west
of the junction, and did not reach the
city until yesterday. In the northern
part of the State a foot of snow fell

Mr.. GOODRICH, of the Goodrich Trans
portation Company, said talking about
navigation was good deal Like looking
into fog bank. His present opinion is
that navigation will not open before the
10th of May, on account of the quantity
of ice III the lake, which is greater than
it has been known since 1842. The
average time for the Straits to be pass
able is the Goth of April, though last
year they were open about the LIST OF
May. Their business prospects are
good so far as they can judge now bet
ter even than last year. They Will have
the same number of boats running this
season. The business on the lakes is
more or less affected by railroad rates,
and if the fight between the railroads
continue the lake traffic viii necessarily
be diminished. Chicago paper.

The st. Louis Republican takes The
trouble to devote an entire column to
proving that there is hopeless division
IN the rank of the Republican party.
Some time since it assumed that the Re
publican party was dead, but having be-
come convinced of the absurdity of this
assertion, it now devotes itself to the
hopeless task of showing that it is di-
vlded. The mistake which the Repub-
llcan makes is in confounding subtrac-
ton with addition. There has been
considerable subtraction from the Re
publican party, namely, subtraction of
the elements of fraud, corruption, and
carpet-baggery, most of which came
originally from the Democratic party
and will go back to it as soon as that
party is in power and has opportunities

CUR LOCAL ELECTION.

With the approach of the day upor
which our citizens will be called upon
to elect new set of city officials, it be-
comes the duty of every citizen to in.
| terest himself in the selection OF men
who will by their election to places OF
trust most advance the interests of the
community and principal among the
qualifications to be exacted is desire
to operate the machinery of the city
government on principles of economy.
While nothing adds more to the good
name of a corporation than fine streets,
bridges and other public improvements,
there is no denying the fact that our
city is burdened by high rate of taxa
ton which is surely undermining its
prosperity and which, unless it is shown
that desire for reform in this respect
actuates our citizens, will give it a
name abroad such as will cause men of
means to shun it. To induce capitalists
and laboring men to locate here, our
citizens must extend to them a guarantee
that their interests, as represented by
money, VIII be protected-musb evince
disposition to regard public funds in
the same light as an individual regards
his own private earnings-and the action
of our Board Of Aldermen particularly,
in their administration Of the city's af-
fairs, must make their actions when
passing upon contemplated expenditures
show that spirit of economy predomi-
mates over the pride which every citizen
should take in the appearance of his
town. This should especially be the
case fer few years-until our taxes are
brought down to basis that will ssimu-
late manufacturing and other industrial
enterprises, and show to the world that
we as citizens are doing all in our power
to make the investment of capital here
bring large returns.
With this object in view, we hope the
caucuses VIII be largely attended, and
that the principal qualifications sought
in the men who are to be placed in
charge of the affairs of the city for the
ensuing year will be integrity and de-
sire to make their administration econ
omical. Our present Board of Aldermen
will leave their charge in good condi-
ton; our duty then will be to select
such men ..as will administer its affairs
with view to keeping it fully up to its
present standard of excellence and re-
ducing the load Of taxation as rapidly as
thoroughness will allow. We have such
men, and it is to be hoped they will be
sought out and elected.

MANY of our readers are not aware of
the fact that change has been made in
the rate Of postage upon what is demon
mated email matter of the third class"
by recent act Of congress-. In this
class is included transient newspapers
and magazines, handbills, circulars, and
merchandise. The rate therefore, zone
cent for each two ounces or fraction
thereof" viii hereafter be zone cent for
each ounce OF fraction thereof which
must be fully prepared to ensure mail
ing; and inasmuch as very few news
papers are published that do not weigh
over one ounce, they will require a
two cent stamp where heretofore only
one was necessary.
