THE STATE DEBT SETTLEMENT.

AT last tnert is q reasonable prospect
that the legislature will effects reason
able compromise with the creditors Of
the State. The Democratic delegation
from this county is solid fer a settlement
at fifty cents on the dollar, with four per
cent. interest. Messrs. Peters and PhelaI
most actively and effectively led the OPP
position to Governor Porter's original
Recommendation Of sixty cents, with six
per cent. interest. Porter's plan re.
quired az interest of $3.50, 600 to Be paid
annually, and made coupons receivable
in payment OF taxes. The plan advo-
Gated by our representatives and likely
to pass will only require S46O,0 600 inter
eat to be paid out annually. This is
a saving to the people of $500, 900
per annum, and the people of
Tennessee are indebted to Shelby county
for defeating a proposition that would
have amounted to con6scatlon. Had our
members faltered or been less vigilant
the b~ondholders' proposition would have
prevailed. All honor to them for so
faithfully and ably representing the SEN
timents and the interests of their con-
stituents. The Banner OF Friday even
ing says ed~itorislly. 1T is probable that
the senate would consent to allow the
new bonds to bear a graded interest, say
three per cent. the first FIVE years, four
per cent. the next, FIVE per cent. the
next, and six per cent. the last fifteen
Of the thirty years the new funded bonds
have TO ran. But it is extremely doubt
ful if the house will consent to a higher
rate Of interest than four per cent ard
it is evident that many members would
reluctantly vote to compromise the
debt at fly cents on the dollar and
allow the new bonds to bear ever tha.
interest. But it appears, from the va
rious votes recorded yesterday, both in
toe house aud in the senate, that
thai basis of adjustment is the one most
likely to be accepted. 1t is the basis Of
settlement embodied in the bill intr
duced By Mr.. Phelan, Of Memphis, and
supported by a majority Of the West
Tennessee delegation. The question is.
will the bondhelders agree to scale the
debt fifty cents on the dollar ard take
new bonds bearing only four per cent.
interest? Let them indicate their will
ingness to do SO. and there is little doubf
the legislature will speedily accept the
terms. Once settled upon that basis, the

the IdeI Of HIS soldiers.

General Skobelef is the idol of his
soldiers. One afternoon in November
his troops we're massed near their en-

and with spades to entrench the ground
they were about to take; s~tretcber-
bearers 10 a group at the rear, a sug-
gestiye but unpleasant sight; a battery
Of mitrailleuses bundled up like 80 many
human beings to keep out the damp, and
in front Of the troops the little body OF
picked men, each with his shovel, his ra-
tons and plenty of ammunition, who
we're to make the first rush across, use
the bayonet and then throw it aside for
the spade, and endeavor to cover in
time to resist the attack Of the returning
Turks. General Scobelef ~dismounted
and told them just what be ex.
pected Of them-thst they were not to
storm the works OF PleVna, but only Il
run forward aud take the piece Of ground
they knew perfectly we'll, in front Of thu
