The relative values of our Interstate
and foreign commerce arc shown by the
following interesting figures: The val
ues: The value of all the shipping,
American and foreign, employed in our
foreign trade is $500, 0OO, 600; the value
of the railroads of the United States is
81, GOO, 900, 900; and while the value of
all our exports and imports carried on
the sea is 81, 121, 634, 600 per annum the
value of the commodities carried by
rail alone in the interior is SIS, ZOO, 000,-
900. This shows that the value of the
railroads of the country is about twenty
three times that of all the ships engaged
in our foreign trade, and that our inter
nal commerce carried on railroads alone
is sixteen times as great as that of our
foreign commerce The comparison
does not include that portion of our in
ternal commerce carried in steamboats,
and ships on the rivers and lakes and
coastwise; if this were added it would
make the internal commerce twenty-five
times as great as the foreign commerce
twenty-five times as great as the foreign

ROBERT L. TAYLOR is an excellent
choice as a Democratic candidate for
Congress In this District. He is q
man of talent and an eloquent speak.
er. Young, enthusiastic and full of
life and vigor, he will arouse the
young men of the District and put
them to work for himself and the
cause in such q manner as will be
Irresistible. Mr.. Taylor comes of
good stock. His father is the Hon.
Nathaniel G. Taylor; his mother is
the sister of the late Landon G.
Haynes, two of the most impassion-
ed orators East Tennessee has ever
produced. He is said to be the
equal, if not the superior of either
one OF these distinguished gentle
men. Six weeks ago We suggested
the name OF Robt- L. Taylor as the
Democratic nominee IN these col
umns. We felt then that the time
had come for us to make q new de-
parture. and to look out for a fresh
man TO bear the banner. Taylor is
exactly the right man in the right
place. He will rally the Demo
cratic hosts Of the mountains as no
other man could. and if the young
men and the middle-aged men and
the old men OF the party will only
5 de their duty, he win be elected.
Young menl we call upon you, es
pecially, togo to work for your noml-
nee. Mr. Taylor is one Of your own

The Hamblen County Temperance
Christian Union will hold a meeting at
the NJ. E. Church South, in Morristown,
at 81 o'clock P. NJ, next Sunday. The
700 blue-ribbon people about Morris
town, intend to keep the subject before
the people. They are of opinion that
the good people of the county and State
have right to say, that the temptation
of the dram shop shall not be set before
their soma and neighhors to lure them
TO ruin, that the time is fully come for
all we'll wishers of the rising generation
to speak out.
All the citizens of the town and sur
rounding country, who have not yet ia
ken the pledge, are specially invited to
attend the meeting next Sunday after
noon Come, and cast in your infiu-
ence on the right ride-otherwise it is
on the wrong side.

Tennessee. born in the shadow of a

The New York Sun thus editorial
ly refers to the platform adopted
last week by the State Democratic
Gubernatorial Convention:
The platform adopted by the Ten
nessee Democracy, in some respects,
may be justly exposed to the sharp
criticism and ridicule which have
been visited upon it; but it con-
tains one novel feature deserving Of
much consideration, and, it may be,
of adoption. 1t is expressed in
these words:
1--WE demand the adoption of q
constitutional provision prohibiting
the S ate forever from borrowing
money and issuing bonds, except
such as may be issued in comprom-
ise of the present debt"
The adoption of such an amend
ment would make great change in
the conduct of a State government /;
but would it not DO a wholesome and
beneficial change? 1t would put an
end to extravagaut and uncalled for
public improvements, and, while
lessing the amount of expenditures,
it would lead to greater care and
oversight in the use of the public
money. For so mnch as should be
expended. much nearer its full value
would be obtained.
When large sums Of money are
raised on bonds to be paid in the dis.
tant future, much of the money thus
raised is very apt to be squandered.
and the people, out of the sweat OF
whose brows it has to be paid. re-
ceive but very inadequate return
for the expenditure. Indeed. it is
the realization of the truth in Ten.
nessee that led to the adoption of
the demand we have quoted. The
substance of the people has been
wasted, and they have been impov-
erished by the issue and sale at an
discount of millions 70
bonds, the proce eds or which in
great part were converted to the
private use of party faVoritee, Such
a thing could not occur if State
was prohibited by its fundamental
law from borrowing money. Posi-
bly, there should be an exception,
allowing the State to raise money by
the issue of bonds. in case of neces-
sity, to repeal invasion or suppress
acknowledgements. it is TO
be hoped. which may never arise in
our happy land.
