Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1876-03-15

Mr.. EDWIN HENRY, Of GreenvIlle,
who some weeks since sent letter to
the New York Ecening Post, in which
he made q statement of our State debt
which swelIs the totsl several million
beyond that reported by the State tTess
urer, has recourse again TO the columns
of the same paper, and sHys:
Having no privste interest to serve, OF
any end to accomplish that is not for the
tenefit Of the boBdholders, published
for general information the financial
condition Of the State, and in the srti-
Gle made 8 suggestion which balieve
and know 70 be for their interest 20 act
upon. It is now for them to decide
whether they will set upon it or rot,
and for that purpose ] send this conn
munication that l may be informed. II
a delinquent State stood in the came re-
lEiiOn as an ordinary creditor, i. would
be from the delinquent that terms should
be proposed, but the officers OF the State
having no such powers could not make
3 proposition. and if they could
it would ipjure both the credit
and honor Of the State. Ii is there
fore highly proper that the bondholders
should propose the terms they are viii.
ing TO accept. The terms that have
been considered as the best that can be
attained, and are acceptable to many Of
those who have a large interest in the
debt (peTs0ns having u thorough knOwl-
edge of the condition and sffzirs of the
S.ate) sTe these: That the entire debt Of
the State Except the school and college
fund.- be consolidated into new bonds
bearing three per cent. interest for the
first i've years and four per cent. there
after, payable 81 mi snnually; the bon Is
10 bs paysble after forty years or sooner,
st the option of tho State; a sinking
fund to be created after ten years. 1t L
highly important for the bondholdeTs
that prompt action be taken, SO that the
measure can be popularized before the
selection OF the next legislature.
As the APPEAL has often said before.
this or any ether proposition Of SINH
lar character viii he welcomed by a
majority Of the people Of Tennessee,
who are anxious, as Mr.. Henry init
mated in his first letter, to put them
selves in full sympathy with the great
financial world, and dtsire nothing so
much as to be clsssed among the most
solvent and most honorable Of comnu-
mites.
