THE MESSAGE,

WHAT THE HAVANA PAPERS SAY ABOUT 1T.
HAVANA, Dec. 1.-THE Voice de Cuba,
commenting on that part of the Presidents
message which relates to Cuba, says. "Gen
Grants language seems to have been chosen
to wound tile susceplibilitics of the Span
ards. lie seems to like PLAYING with fire.
He docs not know the temperament of
Spaniards any more than Napoleon did"
The Diarin censures the tone Of the mes
sage, which wHs published while negotia-
tions were pending between the United
States and Spain. 1t praises family the
Presidents refusal to acknowledge the Gu
ban insurgents us beligerents, and says that
the part OF the message relating to Spain
is studiously obscure. Finally the Dinrio
at the conclusion of two columns and a
half Of criticism, says: ave believe Gen
Grant has disgusted the insurgents, and he
has wounded Spanish pride in his unbound
ed assertions. His entire message is contra.
ry TO the spirit Of the American people
who emnently desire peace, and he hal
satisfied no one"
HOW IT Is RECEIVED IN LONDON.
LONDON, Dee. l2.-The message nf Pres
idemt Grant has been chiefly influential il
determining the purposes of the govern
inent concerning complications III Cuba
1t has outwarily removed existing suspi
cion that roahle was impending. 1t ha
also relieved American bonds from pres
sure and n heayiness that was felt by thos,
who are reengaged in their manipulation.
may be added, however, that these securi
ties are still feverishly held, because of sug
gestions Of the President concerning III
school question, and opening of new polit
icnl issues. On the whole the message ha
been well received, and especially that por
tion of it which treats OF the finances o
the government, and the possibility that a
distant day the currency of the country
will be reduced to basis that will CORES
pond with that Of other specie -payinl
countries.

NOT FOR ANDY.

The Nashville Banner says that
Andrew johnson is going to pay a
visit to Cincinnati, in which event 4" it
is not at all unlikely that the Democ-
racy will call upon him for a speech"
The Buaaer adds:
"Senator Morton has made appointments
to speak throughout Ohio. Wouldn't it be
a lively canvass were johnson and Morton
to be pited against each other? The fur
would hy, somewhere"
Yes, the fur would fly and Andy
knows too we'll where the " fur would
fly" from, to be got into any such ar
rangement. His stereotyped speech
that he has made on every occasion
for the past ten years would answer
in that cause no better than it did
when Maynard be-labored him so un.
mercifully all over this State in 1872,
If such a proposition were made
Andy would be indispoSed as he was
during the recent educational meet
ing at Chattanooga, at which he was
announced to speak, and would "re
specially" decline,

THE ministers of the various churches of
Knoxville have united in an appeal to the
Sheriff Of Knox county to have the execu>
tion Of John Webb, the murderer, on the
18th proximo, conducted privately. A re-
gard for the public morals induces the re-
quest, which is seconded by the local press.
We agree with our Knoxville contempora-
ries that public executions are a relic of
barbarism, and should not be allowed for
the qualification Of the morbid curiosity of
that class who have a singularly brutal APP
petite for such spectacles. We trust the
Sheriff of Knox will comply and lead off
in reformation in behalf of decency that
may be worthy Of emulation in other coun-
Nashville Banner.
We have no idea that the Sheriff of
Knox county will "lead off in this
reformation in behalf Of decency."
1t would be unpopular with a large
number Of people for him TO do so.
The clamor Of the curious, who take
peculiar pleasure in witnessing the
sight of a fellow-being yielding up
his life at the gallows, will make such
a reform improbable for some time to
come, perhaps, But if our public
school system is kept up for few
years, and all the people become ed
ucatcd, such relics Of barbarism as
public executions win cease. We are
not discussing the question Of capital
punishment. 1t appears that it is
sometimes unavoidable, but it should
be conducted privately. We arc glad
to see so influential journal as the
Banner putting itself on record in
this matter.

ASSESSING THE RAILROADS.
The State commissioners in Session
at The Capitol.

Messrs. J. II. Bradford, j. J. Turner
and John +. Helms, State Railroad
Assessors, met in the Capitol yester-
day, and after being sworn in by Chief
Justice A. 0. p. Nicholson, began their
labOrs under the recent act declaring
the mode of assessing for taxation va
riOus railways in Tennessee. They
had before them the schedules of four
roads, which had been filed with the
Comptroller of the Treasury: The
louisville and Nashville, Mississippi
Central, Mississippi and Tennessee,
and Paducah and Memphis; but the
consideration of these was not reached.
The Commissioners occupied them
selves with preliminary matters, in
Guiding the construction of the law
and the laying off of their work. In
asmuch as many of the roads had not
filed their schedules, or given notice
what course they intended to pursue,
it was determined to address a circular
letter to all the companies, in the fol~
lowing words:
"OFFICE OF RAILROAD TAX ASSES
sORS, NASHVILLE, Tenn, July -,
lS75,-Sir: The undersigned beg leave
to submit to you the following inter-
rogatOries, which are called for by Vir-
tue of our appointment as Railroad
Tax Assessors under the act of March
20, 1875:
81. Do the railroads under your
management and control claim an ex,
emption from taxation? If so, by
charter or otherwise?
80. If your roads do not claim eX-
emption from taxation, do you propose
| to be taxed under the first section OF
March 20, 1915, or under section II OF
said act?
"3. If you propose to be taxed un-
der the 18th section of said act, what
steps have you taken, if any, towards
accepting the provisions of said act?
4. If you propose to be taxed under
| the first section of said act, please
furnish us a certified copy of the
amount of stock owned in each coun-
ty through which your road runs.
An early reply to these questions
will oblige us, and will facilitate oul
| labors.
As far as yet known, only one roaC
has determined to accept the IL pei
cent. alternative. The labors of The
Railroad Assessors will be long OF
| short, according to the answers The
| Companies may make to the above in
terrogatories. 1t is to be hoped tn,
Assessors will be accorded every facil
ity for their work, and that the rail
road officials will even cooperate will
them, as such a policy will certainly
not prejudice their rights where they
hold that their roads are exempt an(
expect to contest the matter before tn,
courts. The Assessors have decided i
to be their duty TO prepare books TO
all roads not electing to pay the u pc
cent. ON gross earnings. Union ant

How Thunder Showers Come Up.

In order to convey a more definite
idea of our theory, we will choose a
certain locality which may serve the
purpose of diagram to our demonstra-
ton and this locality shall be that of
Westtield river. This river takes its
rise among the forests near the sum-
nit of the Green Mountains, at a
height of some 1000 feet above the
level of the sea, and, flowing south
easterly forty or fifty miles, empties
into the Connecticut river about ten
miles from the southern boundary of
the State.
During hot summer day the sides
of the deep valley of this river reek
with intense heat, and cause flow of
moist air upward towards the summit
of the mountain ridge, from the valley
OF the Connecticut, and also from the
sea. rms moist air, meeting with the
general current from the southwest,
piles up an immense mass of cumulus
cloud, OF many square miles in extent,
80 long as the great heat lasts the
cloud increases in size; grows blacker
with Its dense vapoT, and casts q
gloomy, lurid glare over the face of
nature, darker than that of any eclipse,
The vapor, pushed up by the ascend
ing currents of heatedlair, attains to
great height above the sea, where the
temperature is very low. But finally,
at that hour of the afternoon when
the heat begins to decline, the accu-
mulated vapors, no longer augmented
or sustained by heated air from the
valleys below, fall in rain.-Popuidr

THE FAILURE OF DUNCAN,
SHERMAN q COMPANY.

No event has occurred in this coun.
try since the failure of Jay, Cooke &
Co. in 1878, and the hundreds of sus-
pensions that followed, has created
such excitement in financial circles,
as the suspension of the great bank
ing house of Duncan, Sherman & Co.
in New York on July 81. Our dis
patches give q brief but interesting
history of the firm. 1t has been one
of the leading banking houses in the
United States, and has been regarded
as one of the safest. The business
of Duncan, Sherman & Co. extend
cd all over this country, and the dis
patches say into Europe. So the
losses will be felt everywhere. There
is scarcely city in this coun-
try in which business men
did not having dealings with them.
What effect their suspension will
have on other establishments in New
York and elsewhere does not yet APP
pear. The greatest loss to the coun-
try will be, perhaps, the effect it will
have in destroying confidence among
business men, which, after all, is the
basis of all commercial transactions.
1t does not appear now that any fur
Their general damages will result. OF
course nothing is yet known as to the
extent to which depositors and other
creditors of the bank will suffer.
Ms William Butler Duncan, the
head Of the firm, is very popular in
New York. He has been spoken of
as a candidate for Mayor of that city,
and had he accepted the candidacy he
would most likely have been elected,
1t was said sometime ago that his
daughter was about to wed a Scotch
Earl. What the result of the
failure of the father will be upon the
feelings of nobility towards his daugh-
ter it is hard to tell.
We trust that when all the facts
are known this failure will not prove
as disastrous to the general business
of the country, as we would naturally
suppose from first impressions.
