STATE TREASURER.

In these times the chief requisite in
the character of public officer is that
Of unyieldiug honesty. So many men of
worth have lately prIshed in name and
FaHO by loose, disjointed pOSions of eff
sial rsctitude, sntailing heavy loss to the
public sxohsquer. The people demand
change in the general personnel of our
State and Federal lunctioRaries. This is
not hypOthsoated upon any surmise that
Tennessee has unworthy men serving
her, but Is stated as the preeminent need
OF the hour.
There are nasy offices to be filed by
Shs Legislature of our State and there
are many candidates in the field.
Not prejudicing others, we urge the
claims Of Col. Marsh T. Polk for the
position of State Treasurer upon high
and uuassailable ground. Col Polk is an
irrsproachabls character, cultured and
capable, and be has that clear cut hon
essy about him which no temptation or
Establishments could induce him TO sur
render at the bidding of pcNer or place.
Ia his hands the public money will be as
secure as in an ad2mantine safe, beyond
she reach of treachsrous middlemen or
she manipulation, of scheming bondhold-
ers. Outside of the high personal worth
Of Col. Polk, hs is entitled at the hands
of ths Democratic party to an apprecia-
tive recognition of his long and unset
ash service in the ranks of the party.
No man in the State has labored more
indeGatigabis than he in securing the
ascsndsney of Democratic principles
He is known, and well-known, too,
throughout the State as q true-blue
representative Democrat. Give him the
sfice Of Treasurer and the Legislature
will be honoring a man whose career
sTill be an honor to the Commonwealth.

THE SAME RULE FOR ALL.

On the 9th Gov. Grover, of Oregon,
gave a certificate of election as elector to
T. A. Crouin, a Democratic candidate
for that Office, on the ground that one
of the Republican candidates, the late
Postmaster Watts, was Ineligible
Whatever differing theories concern
ing that decision may be entertained,
this much is plain: The same theory
must be applied to all cases. 1t will not
do to make various laws for various
States If it be held that when the
votes come to be counted ia Washington
the eetifcates may be inquired into fur
ther than is necessary TO ascertain their
genuineness. that rule must be Impair
TALLY applied. If. as we have inclined
to believe, the appointments of electors
is a purely State matter, and if there is
no power to go behind the authentic GER
tifcates of State officers, that rule must
be impartially applied. If the Demo-
Gratis insist upon inquiring into the
proceedings of the Louisiana Returning
Board they cannot prevent the Republi-
cans from inQuiring into the proceedings
Of chs Oregon Governor. On the other
hand, if the Republicans insist that the
auth entic action of the State is conclu-
sivs IN louisiana, they must admit that
it is conclusive in Oregon.

WHAT OUR LEGISL LAT0RS
SHOULD Do.

This body will soon assemble TO con-
slider the condition and needs Of the
State, The people demand that the
pruning knife be feaTlessiy used in cut
ting down expenses and Topping off sine

universal and the oppressive load must
be raised from the lacks OF the people.
The wisdom of the Legislature will be
taxed to devise ways and means to meet
current expenses and at the same time
curtail expenditures. The State debt
must be paid. We cannot allow to repu-
diate one cent
We mention subjaet that demands
instant notics. which is that the cost of
criminal prosecution has grown out of
all proportion to the increase of crime
in the State, and for tbs last two sessions
nothing has been done to correct this
drain upon the Treasury.
Moreover, the number of Offices must
be lessened and high-rated salaries must
be reduced. These and other kiadred
interests require earnest and thoughtful
rttsnti1u. The people will watch their
representatives to see what they do to re
instate them and the State to a former
better condition.

NOT CRUSHED.

Though one hundred and twenty five
thousand dollars worth of property was
SWEPT away by the late fire, yet our peo-
pie ara not dIspirited. Just 80 soon as
the rigors of winter are over many of our
strong men will commence the work of
rebuilding aud by next summer substan-
tial structures will grace the spot now
filed with smouldering debris. Chicago,
Richmond, AMI other fre-stricken cities

predict that few years hence our own
town will not bear q mark of the present
disasters These blows fall in common
upon individuals as we'll as localities,
and they but serve to develop the man.

THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE.

1t is a matter of no small moment how
the late fire originated. Very many be-
lieve it to he deliberate inceHdiarism-
some few think it was purely accidental.
However differing these opinions may be,
the public should demand that some
proper authority, say the Town Council,
should institute searching investiga-
ton into the matter. We cannot as citi-
zens, afford to remain unconcerned as to
the origin of such an appalling disaster.
If it be the work of an incendiaTy and the
community sh uld remain Indifferent to
discover the cause, we may expect to
have an early repetition of the ruin.
And, if it be accidental. then no harm is
done

OUR GREAT LOSS.

Our town sustained a heavy blow by
the recent FIRE. Outside of the large
amount of valuable property destroyed,
the mercantile community receives a Sc
vers shock in consequence Of an almost
enforced suspension of business by one
half cur enterprising commercial men
Bereft of property, the resultant accunu-
lEtons of years of unremitting toll and
severe saving, embarrassed to meet &C
erued financial obligations. credit abroad
impaired by virtue of uninsured losses
our business men thus afflicted stand
forth the merited objects of hearty sym
psthy at the hands of an apprecistive
genersl public. They have lost and in
their losses should ts sustain ed to the
extent that they may be enabled soon to
start anew to rebuild and repair their
wasted fortunes. Their creditors should
stand afar off and not lay the inexorable
hand of exacting law upon the mere
fragments Of remaining property. II
YOU have a claim against anv one OF
them, wait patiently and alllw him time
to brush from his brow the dust and

him a chance to breathe before you place
clamps upon his energies; give him an
opportunity to recover strength and get
together his assets that he may restore
himself for the future. Don't crush him,

meet some terrible disaster down the

A STRAW.

This paragraph from the New York
Sun carries a great deal of significance :
The shipments of freight West and
South have fallen off grestlY since the
conspiracy of the Republican Office
holders to seiza the government has be
come developed We fear that before
the middle of February the Republican
merchants in New York who have tacit-
ly encouraged this criminal attempt to
subvert our free institutions, will have
deep cause to regret that they did not
take q more maHly stand against the
revolutionary movements of their politi-
cal leaders.

THE GREAT EXPOSITION.

We have received from the publishers,
Messrs. Hubbard Bros, of Philadel-
phia, advance sheets of forthcoming
volume, which will interest every
American: 1t is entitled The Centen-
nial Exposition Described and Ilustra-
ted" and Is a complete history and
pictorial representation of this grandest
worlds fair the world has ever known.
Every intelligent and thoughtful per-
son who has visited the Exposition and
comprehended not only its vast proper
tions but its wide Significance, will be
glad to fnd it photographed and pre-
served in permanent form in this
beautiful and carefully prepared vol
ume
The great Exposition is really repre-
sentstion of all that the human race has
accomplished during it's career of six
thousand years The nations of the
earth of every cline selected that which
embodied their best thoughts and their
highest achievements in every depart
lnent of human effort, and bringing
them together, invited the world to be-
hold the last and most perfect resnIts of
all that man has accomplished in every
field Of thought, industry and skill
OF the millions of our citizens who
have expended from $50 to $500 each in
viewing and studying this wonderful
display, we have never heard Of one who
did not feel amply repaid for tie expense
of time and money involved. These
millions desire to study more at leisure
what they could then examine but
hurriedly, and many millions more who
ooald not visit and sec it, desire to
possess a work which shall give them a
full and adequate representation Of this
grand and wonderful exhibition. To
supply this urgent demand is the object
of this work. 1t has been prepared
from material gathered on the grounds,
by the most careful, patient and laborious
research, and from official resources, and
hOugh it does not claim, as some do, to
be by official authority, it commands
confidence thereby, Gen. Hawley having
announced that no book has any right
to such a claim. 1t describes briefly
the inception and growth of this grand
enterprise, but mainly the wonderful
xhibits Of the Nations of the New and
Old World, showing their different
peculisrities, values, curiosities of
mechanism, &C., and contrasting them
one with the other.
But the interest and value of the beck
lie largely in its profu sc and brilliant
illustrations. In this multitude of finely
executed engraVings, the main features
of the Exhibition are wildly impressed
on the mind of the reader in a way that
words cannot do. II is the next thing
to seeing the great Worlds Fair itself
We advise our readers to examine the
book carefully shouli they have an
opportunity. We presume the publishers
want agents in this vicinity, and we
aope some of our energetic young men
will improve what seems to US an
extraordinary opportunity to serve our
citizens and do a handsome paying
business.

The discontinuance. OF the Fast Mail
Service seems to be generally acqutesced
in, even in those cities which derived ben
eft thcreirom, If there ever was any bene-
ct in it. Facts, however, have demon
stratel that the service was OF no real
benefit to the business interests Of the
country; that it was expensive beyond all
comparison with its advantages; that It
was not even advantageous to the New
York journals in whose interest the Sy'-
TEN was originated. Neither their sub
scription lists nor the transient sale Of
their papers was increased by it.
In refusing an appropriation to con.
tinue this expensive luxury, Congress did
praiseworthy act-that is it would have
been such had the motives been other
than to manufacture political capital
That such was the motive, irrespective Of
true economic considerations, is evident
from the fact that in the insane partizan'
ism which permeates every act OF the
lower House Of Congress, matter Of
much more serious import threatens not
only the journalistic but the commercial
interests OF the country as result OF the
niggardly policy Of the Democratic Con-
gress in the PostofIice appropriation.
This, according to the Railroad Age, is
the probable refusal Of the Eastern rail.
roads to carry the through postal cars at
their present rate Of compensation. This
would make q decided difference in the
time oil transmission and delivery Of bus.
mess correspondence. So long as the
postal cars are run, the mails are held
open in New York to the last moment
before the starting Of the traim the dis.
tribution for the various points is made
in the postal cars as the train proceeds, and
the mail ia ready for assortment and deliv-
cry Immediately upon its arrival. But il
the postal cars be taken oil, the mails will
have to be closed several hours earlier in
New York, and the delay will be seriously
felt. II it comes to this, the Democratic
Congress may expect to hear from the peo-
pie Of all parts of the couptry in avery de.
termined protest.
