American Commerce,

The report of the bureau of statistics

encouraging one. A comparison for the

cerned II the imports for the month of
April. The total value was $42, ,070, ,424,
against $50, 156, ,526 for the same month

EDIFoRs CHRONICLE In the To-
bacco Leaf of Thursday last there was
an item casting some reflections upon
the police force, and, 10 Justice to our
selves. we wish to make our statement
so that the community may know
where the blame lies. We have time
and again made arrests of boys for
throwing stones, using bad language
and other misdemeanors on the streets,
and they have invariably been turned
loose on the plea that they were chill
dren; p the offense was trivial" their
parents were poor and unable to pay a
6ne;" "the city would be put to ex-
pense if they were imprisoned" or
some ether pretext, so that it has been
almost impossible to get an offender
punished. When policeman takes
an offender before trial officer, there
his authority ends, and if the law is
not enforced it is not his fault. We
know that it is worse than useless t.
make an arrest and then let the cul
prit go unpunished, as it gives him Ii
cense to repeat the offense.
: You will please publish this in on
behalf, as we feel and know that W
have done our full duty.

FROM SPRINGFIELD.


Making visit to GAINESVILLE last
week on temperance enterprise, it
was pleasant to renew old acquaintance
with seveaal friends. | feel inclined
to send you note since my return,
and do so with more boldness because
one or two of the corps editorial have
several times scolded me for writing
so seldom.
The Champions of the Red Cross is
fraternity gathered together in the
interest of temperance and life insur-
ance, aud is destined to be greatly
useful in our land Having been iden-
tilted with the temperance reform for
more than a quarter of century, |
like this last organization best, and
am rejoiced to find that you have a
lodge of active working members in
your growing city. 1t seems to me
that every lover Of humanity, and es-
pecially every clergyman, should be
clearly identified with this or some
similar movement.
The Church-going people of our
town had rare treat last Sabbath in
the visit and ministrations of Rev
Philip s. Fall, of Nashville, who is
here on a visit to his children and
grandchildren. He occupied the pull
!. Dit of the Methodist Church mornins
, and night, and also gave a good off
hand Bible lecture at the Union Sab
bath school in the afternoon of which
Gen. Garner is superintendent. Be
ing nearly four score years old ne re
tains his mental vigor wonderfully
; and is good illustration of growing
, old gracefully.

I made up my mind to drop three Q

CONVENTIONAL INTEREST.

The Shelbyville Commercial takes
issue with us in regard to our oppcsi-
ton to the repeal of the ten per cent.
law. He says:
I'VE are we'll aware that those men
who have money to loan, and who
make it business, deprecate the re-
neal of this law, but we do not see that
this is any reason the CHRONICLE
should oppose 1T, as newspaper men
never have enough of the "one thing
needful' to speculate on.
Now the Commercial gentleman had
better not undertake to know too much
about the affairs of his brother jour
nalists, but he is right on the one
point that to ourselves personally the
rate of interest in Tennessee is q mat
ter of entire Indifference; we are like
the Venetian merchant. I'VE neither
lend nor borrow upon advantage. If
friend wants to borrow few thous-
and dollars of us we never bother him
about rates of interest; and if, which
is rearely the case, we have occasionto
seek a temporary advance of funds
our credit is such from our vast posses
sions OF Castles in Spain, house prop
erty and town lots in Sahara and
orange plantations in Nova Zembla
not to mention our heavy investments
/ in Confederate Bonds, that we COM
mand what we want in the money
markets of the world at our own rates.
1t is strictly therefore in the inter-
est of the public that We have any
thing to say upon the subject.
Nor do we expect to go to warrior the
conventional interest law, which would
be a waste of powder and shot; SO
many representatives have gone to
/ Nashville pledged to its repeal that
the result is settled before the session
begins.
Be it so but we don't think that any
one viii be the better of for it.
Yes. The shayers will again 9riye
brisk business in Tennessee.

SENATOR BAILEY AT HOME.

The return of Judge Bailey from
Nashville last Saturday was treated by |
the whole GAINESVILLE people as ju-
bilee. Our new Senator arrived Sat
turday at3 p. NJ, by q special train

among them Gen. Luke Wright OF
Memphis. the Hon. Lewis Bond OF
Brownsville, chairman of the House

there were already at the depot the
Fire and Hook and Ladder Compa-
MES, the Tilden and Hendricks Glee

welcome back the new Senator.
, The Senatorial party was conveyed

the chair and in kindly familiar
speech introduced Judge Bailey to his
@ fellow citizens in this new character
