nets prevented a general refusal to
pay; and not oven those deferred
the people from rising in their
majesty, and compelling tho Radical
Legislature to largely reduce the
levy. Tho law proscribos that in
doubtful transactions what has
been paid out cannot bo recovered !;
and what has not been paid cannot
be collected. The defendant has
always tho better position. And
what was this wholesale issue of
bonds but virtual farming out of
tho revenues of tho State as long as
tho bonds arc to run?
If cxpediency is tho only lamp to
guido our feet, the duty of tho
Legislature is plain-to scale tho
honest debt and repudiate the rest.
If justice and right arc to bo con-
suited, tho honest debt should be
paid in full and the rest repudiated.
In either case tho Consolidation Act
is cheat and q fraud.

bow Chris tmas was Spent--A Pleasant
Work Of the New Yoar begun.
Editors News AND HERALD: Tho
most notable event in the "Cornor"
during tho holidays was the Christ
mas Treo at Cool Branch Church
for tho benefit and encouragement
Of tho children that compose tho
Sabbath-school at that place. The
good people, especially tho good
women of tho community, displayed
good taste and great ingenuity, and
united their purse-strings literally
III this good work. This tree was
not n little bush, md it was filed
from bottom to top with fruits.
toys, articles of clothing, ETC., in
such profusion chat tho school,
numbering somo sixty-fvo childron,
received thoir arms full of presents.
The tree was complete success
the children were made happy, and
this mado tho old folks happy,
which rendered. it an occasion Of
exceeding good feeling md made
all foel that 1T is moro blessed to
glvo than to receive" Tho very
large congregation present, and the
school were entertained and en-
livened by q most interesting and
sprightly address from Rev. j. D
Mahon, the pastor of this church.
Permit us to say that this Sabbath~
school has been in existence for
over seven years, and that tho
obstacles that existed at it's organi-
zation have pretty we'll given way,
and now it waves it's golden wings
ovor tho homo Of every family in tho
Ozark Corner"
The holidays ovor, tho storner
duties of tho farm como up. Con-
tracting for labor for tho Now Year
is pretty we'll over. Labor is
plentiful and easy to employ. The
short cotton crop of last year, with
tho absence of the lien law, is, we
think, causing much labor to bo
employed for wages. A considera-
bio quantity of wheat and oats
has been sown this season. A
good quantity of home-raised pork
have boen slaughtered, and it would

The Public Debt.

plausible argument in favor Of
standing by tho present arrange
mont Of tho public dobt; but it's
reasoning is bascd rather on OK
podioncy than on any fixed principle
OF right. It shows that tho con-
aolidated debt is loss than tho un-
questionable Reconstruction
dobt; and argues in addition that
tho old bonds have passed out of
tho hands Of the original holders,
into the possession of spectators
and moreover, that thoy cannot be
traced up.
In answer, it may be truthfully
asserted That m acceptance Of the
compromise now, by the Democrats,
after an inquiry into the nature of
tho bonds is reputation to the
amount Of the difference between
tho old and the consolidated bonds,
and that even the payment of On
equal amount in tho aggregate, if
made up by scaling honest debts
fifty per cont, and paying All addi
tional fifty cents on worthless
forged paper, is still nothing more
or less than ropudiation. AS to
tho point that tho bonds have
passed into the hands of third
persons, that makes no difference
as far rs concerns tho duty in"
oumbont on the people to meet
their valid obligations. If nm in
dividual gives note md is subse.
quontly imprisoned or confined
improperly in an insane asylum,
and some other party gets hold Of
his estate illegally, and by forging
his namo so wastes it that both
the owners valid obligations and
the forged notes become SO worth
less an both 10 be sold for song,
after which tho owner obtains his
liberty, it becomes his duty to pay
his debts in whosesoever hands the
l aims may rest, while not hesi-
tating to repudiate all fraudulent
Issues But should he pay them
oil alike pro rata, he might then,
indeed, be considered fit subject
for the asylum or the Jail. AS for
tracing up the bonds, it is safe to
assume that the parties Interested
will be able to prove pretty con-
clusively tho genuineness of any such
honest claims as they may hold.
On the other hand, If the State
revives tho old honest debt while
repudiating bogus paper, tho cry
OF reputation can never be raised
against her for it will be seen that
she meots squaroly tho obligations
she horself contracted and merely
fulfills m intention Expressed in
divers wsys-through the press,
and by conyentions-of having
nothing to do with tho debt foisted

struction, backed by Federal bayo.
nets.
The fairest settlement would be
rehabilitation OF the old bonds
and rejection Of tho now. If the
State cannot meet tho increased
interest, lot her pay smaller rate,
say four per cent for the next five
years, and an increased rate after
that time. We imagine that honest
bondholders would gladly accept
this proposition, as it increases the
principle.
Again The NeUs and Courier
argues that on the principle on
which the bonds are repudiated,
tho State should demand q return
OF the taxes squandered by Radical
officials. The cases are not
analogous. The taxes have long
since been paid in, and, however
tho money was squandered then,
these transaotions are things of tho
