southern Credit ln Europe.

The hope of obtaining English cap
ital for employment ID developing the
mineral resources of the Southern
States, promises TO end in disappoint-
ment. spoke about q year ago of
the efforts of the British Council of
Foreign Bondholders to discourage in
vestments in Southern properties and
securities, aud the subject is again
brought to our notice by report just
issued, which will not prove entertain
ing reading for our friends in some of
the Southern and Western States The
council, which is composed oil eminent
London business men, including Sir
John Lubbock, Sir John Rose, Mr..
Grostenberg, Mr.. Weguelin and many
Others, wields a vast influence, and is
doing much to shape public opinion
with regard to foreign investments.
OF American credit the report of the
council says
While the Federal government and
the Northern States maintain their
ancient faith with investors, the South
ern States have proceeded on a course
which, when not professedly repudiat-
ing, has been so in practice. Some of
these States have remodeled their con-
situations, and arbitrarily reduced their
debts by restricting the taxation. and
by depriying the courts of their jurls-
diction in matters of appeal. The con-
dition of affairs is all the more to be
deplored, as the flow of capital requir-
ed for the speedy development of the
South is effeetually retarded, to the
prejudice of every member OF the pop
- L
ply to the States of Mississippi, Min
nesota, North and South Carolina,
Florida, Indiana, Arkansas, Georgia
aud Others.
We commend this extract to the
consideration of our readers in the
South. 1t cannot be denied that the
Council of Foreign Bondholders take
a correct view of the situation from
their standpoint. Virginia is made
the subject of nnfavorable comment !:
Her finances are still in an unsatls-
factory condition, several coupons be-
! ing still in arrears, and when payment
is made it is not in full. OF Alabama
we are told The unremtting atten-
tention of the Council and ofthe com
nittees in London and frankfort has
been required during the year to meet
legal and other difficulties in the United
States. in protection of both the in
dorsed bonds and the gold bonds.
Louisiana is another defaulting State.
Her funding Act of 1874 involved a
reduction of 40 per cent. of principal
and past interest on the bonds of the
State. The bondholders conformed to
this under protest. and directed the
Council to issue certificates of claim
against the State for the amount lost
through the conversion" 1t was be-
cause of this bad faith that the Council
actively and successfully opposed the
negotiation of New Orleans loan in
the English market. While this feel
ing exists all hopes of attracting con-
siderable amounts of English capital
seem to rest on very slender and I'M
substantial foundation.-IroR Age.

THE following from the Dover Re-
cord will, we believe, be heartily en-
dorsed by the voters of our county, if
Judge Smith will consent to become a
candidate. We know of no one in the
county who would better serve her in
terests in the next legislature +.
We are pleased to learn that the
probability is that Judge Chas. G..
Smith will be called by the people of
Montgomery to represent them in the
next General Assembly. Judge Smith
in the House would do honor to his
constituents and the people at large.
We hope that our neighbors will com
plete their work and send him. We
need just such men, and are satisfied
that our whole State will be benefited
as our Chancery Division was by his
talent, wisdom and calm deliberations.
He is not in favor of disgracing the
State by repudiating her debt, but in
favor of paying every honest one she
owes.

THE following is the closing para
graph of an article on Republication
from the Nashville Evening Mail of
the l5th inst
Our fathers sought to hand down
to US the good old commonwealth un-
tainted; let us not be behind them In
the bestowmeut of the good gift to our
children. Nor should it be overlooked
that the putting off the evil day but
adds to the debt. That which is to
be done cannot be brought about too
quickly. There is one sure way out of
these difficulties, and that is to practice
the most rigid economy until the State
is cleared of its indebtedness. We
must lop off unnecessary expenses and
cut down others wherever this can be
done, and it is clear that it can be
done in almost every department of
the government. Let this be kept
steadily in view in electing members
to the next Legislature, and if we get
the right sort Of men in that body, the
old ship can soon be righted, and Ten
nessee credit be restored to the proud
position it held in years before the
war

Senator Keys Position.
Petersburg lva.l Index-Appeal.

Hon. d. nj. Key. United States
senator from Tennessee, theonly DEM
ocratic senator who voted for the
Mississippi resolutions, and whose
speech aud vote have called forth so
much criticism, friendly and unfriend-
ly, has written a letter to Rev. I. Il.
Eaton, of this city, in which he says !:
MY speech was an appeal to the
people Of the North in behalf of the
people of the South" He states that
he does not believe the charges Of
fraud in the Mississippi elections, bat
favors the fullest investigation. He
advocates the punishment Of all wrong,
and If there il anything wrong in the
Democratic camp he wants il pointed
out and corrected. He adds, ia refer
ence to the unlriendIy criticism of
many of the Southern papers 1t will
be dark day for the South If its news
papers convince the North that have
been mistaken as 10 the present tenn
per aud feelings of the Southern peO-
pie. That prosperity we all 50 much
desire and need can only follow peace,
confidence and fraternity"

Col. Blizard's Speech.

l a-
After the adjournment of the Demo-
cratic County Meeting last Monday,
our distinguished fellow -toWnsman,
Col. A. Blizzard. addressed large
audience, assembled in the circuit
courtroom. for something like an hour.
1t was an earnest, able. eloquent effort,
interspersed at times, perhaps, with
too much aeerbity and the occasional
employment of terms and language
little stronger than the Colonel is in
the habit of clothing histhoughts with.
We took no notes, and do not propose
anything more than n mere passing re-
ference to the speech. The first por-
ton of it was devoted to national
affairs, aud was scathing review and
emphatic denunciation Of the frauds
and corruptions which have character
lied the administration Of the general
government under President Grant and
a Republican Congress. But it was
when the gentleman came to talk about
the State debt of Tennessee that he
seemed to elicit and command the
closest and most profound attention of
his audience. Col B. takes bold, posi-
tive and high ground against repudia-
ton, whole or partial; the bare thought
of such an alternative to get rid of an
honest debt is unworthy of Tennessee
aus, and its consummation would be
an everlasting reproach and stigma up
on the character and history of the
commonwealth, past, present and to
come. He was opposed to repudIa-
ton in every shape and form, and for
one, sink or swim, live or die, survive
or perish. he proposed to stand by and
maintain to the best of his ability, the
plighted faith aud the honor and in
tegrity of his State. He showed the
tax valuables and resources of the
State, and secuted the statement that
we were not able and could not pay.
But we can't follow the gentleman
through his remarks If we did not
misapprehend him, he is in favor of re-
trcnchment and reform in the admin
istration of State affairs, and an in
crease of taxes sufficient to carry on
the government aud to restore aud pre-
serve the faith and integrity of the
State, should it take sixty cents, eighty
or even one dollar on the one hundred
to do it. The plighted faith and good
name ofTennessee must be maintained
at all hazards and at any sacrifice as
the richest legacy we can leave our
children.-AthenS Post 14th.

The CHANCELLoRsHIP.-TheL eba-
non Herald after cordially endorsing
what the Springfield Record says of
Hon. Ii. II. Lurton, then adds.
We know something of Judge
Lurtou's qualifications for the position
of Chancellor. Our knowledge of him
extends over u period of many years.
We know that, as student, he was
diligent, perseyering and indefatigable;
that, as a lawyer, he was able, accom-
plshed and successful; and that, as a
Judge, he has surprised those who know
little of him and surpassed even the
expectations of his most admirlng
friends. 1t is entirely within the truth
to say that. since his accession to the
bench, he has managed the crowded
and cumbrOus docket of this division
IN way which has been q revelation
alike to lawyers, litiRants and people,
and that he has already attained rep
utation equalled by no judge Of his age
IN the State.

We copy an article to-day from the
Iron Age, its object being to show the
status ofsome Of the Southern States,
as viewed from the standpoint of foreign
capital, and looking at it through the
medium of scaling, compromising and
repudiatiug. La a business point Of
view, we have no fault TO find with
those who look with distrust upon
those States and the South generally,
but in equity. as well as in a spirit of
iberality, there ought not to be thrown
entirely out of tie account the circum-
stances which impair the credit of the
Southern States aud make it so diff
cult for them to pay old debts and to
contract new ones. We make no al
fusion to the waste and desolation Of
the war, hut justice and humanity de-
Inand that che ten years of barbarous
reconstruction, during which robbery
and political oppression repressed
every effort at rccuperation and the
revival of trade, shall be taken into
the estimate in order to arrive at cor
rect conclusions. Reconstruction was
not intended, as the term implies, to
rebuild the Southern States but to
destroy their rights, crush out their
resources and to keep them in abject
poverty and dependence. We do not
expect foreign capital 10 appreciate
fully the motives and appliances where
by Radical reconstruction was so
shaped as to add to the 6esolations Of
war, but we do expect it to appreciate
the deplOrable results and, in common
justice, not to confound inability with
dishonest intention and found upon
that error unmerited censure and un-
manly insinuations.
But we copy the article alluded to,
not go much for this sort of comment
Us to induce scalers to reflect upon the
extent 10 which their cutlery against
paying the debt in full must discourage
immigration and the advent of capital
into the States. Leaving out of sight
the dishOnor that will attach to repu-
Station in part or ia toto, the pecuniary
question involved, the future credit
and prosperity of the State, are con
siderations of importance enough to
induce every honest citizen to exert all
his influence in favor of the payment
of an honest debt and the vindication
of the honor and credit of the COM
monweaith. Those who fail to do this
virtually say to immigration and capt.
tal-Tennessee is no place for such
promoters of future development and
prOsperity-leave us alone to bear the
burden our degradation, merited be-
cause self-inaicted.

The San Francisco Post remarks on
the action of the recent convention :
This resolution does not in the least
affect them as political balance of
power. 1t simply admonishes the
Northern and Western Republicans
who have for years been sQbsistiGg an
this blind rage prejudice that they can
no longer reckon upon it as factor to
win presidential elections aud carry
ma jority in Congress. In short. the
late invipoihle Republican phalanx, of
the South is broken, scattered, destroy
ed. with every prospect that at the
coming November election nearly
every one Of the ten States above
named as voting the regular Republi-
ca ticket in 1872, will this year face
about and cast their votes for the st.
Louis nominee, if that convention aud
the present House of Representatives
shall manifest disposition not to dis
turb the political settlements Of the
war or the political status conferred by
those settlements upon the coloTed
race.

farmers of Western New York and
then among the farmers of Tennessee,
he cannot appreciate the great dlIIer-

dogs The yearly waste in the South
ern States is past all computation

titchen Stops are wasted; stable and
harm ward manure is wasted wheat
straw in fact all straw and corn-stalks
are wasted. There is no saving any
where tits a carnival waste from the
Ohio river TO the Gulf. And this Is

and the chief reason that we hear the
eternal complaint that there IS no
money in the country.
