Bishop Marvin will hold the

Bishop Keever takes the Western

dened down with debt, the issue
was made clear and distinct of adj
ditional burdens in order to pay ii
and restore the States credit. Hon.
esty triumphed most signally, and
hence Maryland credit now stands
as high as that of any State in the
Union. This is the lesson for Ten
nessee. BY refunding the old bonds
into new ones at sixty cents on the
dollar, Tennessee's debt of 20,000,-
600 would be reduced to $4,000, 900,
the interest on which, even with
the present rate of taxation, and as
shown by the official report of the
annual revenue of the State, could
be readily. paid. Many doubtless
consider Tennessee not entitled to
this concession, hence she will be
very unwise if she does not hasten
to accept it.

General Nye was trying a case in
the Southern tier, and the presiding
Judge was peveish and irritable, as
well as rather dull. Nye had cross
examined a witness at great length,
and had frequently put the same
questions which the judge had ruled
against as improper. AT last the
patience of the judge was exhaust
ed, and he petulently asked:
"Gen. Nye, what do you think
am here for 2"
Nye looked up at the bench, and
with grave countenance, answered

81 tell yOu," said the gentleman
from whom the foregoing statement
was obtained, "this lease business
has got to be abandoned and will
be by almost everybody i'm the bus
iness this year, for prices are going
down % per cent, and we can't do
that kind of business except upon a
large margin"
The President of the Wheeler Il
Wilson company said: "We will
furnish our $65 machine to any one
who will take the number from us
which we sell annually for $40 each.
Nothing but the protection afforded
by patents has brought the sewing
machine to its present perfection" "
he added. "In other countries, like
Germany, where they have been
allowed to pirate our inventions,
they have never made single
original Improvement in their ma
chimes, but here there has been a
constant strife to improve them by
outsiders, and we inside have had
money to work on them. Is cost us
three years time and $500, 900 to
produce our No. 8 machine from our
No. 6. We have not yet decided
what will be done in the way of re-
duction i'm prices. We shall proba-
bly, put our $55 machine down to
S45, which was the price before the
war"
At the Singer Manufacturing
Company's office the President said:
''There was a time when a great
competition arose as to who should
sell the machines. The Singer out
sold the others largely, but there
was a looseness in the way i'm which
people who could not get trusted for
a bushel of coal were put in posses
sion Of a $75 sewing machine, which
resulted in many losses to the COM
panies and a great clamor from dis
honest people against the lease sys-
tenn. That system will have TO be
stopped now, as we shall have to
reduce our prices almost immedi-
ately. The lease system has been
the means of enabling many poor
people to buy a sewing machine who
would never have got one in any
other way. This change will un-
