THE MEMPHIS RECEEVERsHIP.

The litigation before Judge Bax-
ter of the United States Circuit
Court in Memphis, with which our
readers are familiar, eliminated in
the appointment of Thomas J.
Latham, Esq, as Receiver. The
appeal is very severe against the
Judge for his course, but says of
Mr.. Latham:
"Of the gentleman selected by the
court TO act an receiver, we can say
nothing that is not to his credit. In
other and responsible trusts he has
proven his integrity and ability for
this. a lawyer of experience and q
man OF undOubted qualifications, he
will administer the Office impartially
and AZ leniently ss the instructions of
the court will permit. We have the
fullest faith in him. and ask for him
the respect and ready acquiescence Of

COUPONS FOR TAXES.

LII Is hardly worth WnlIe 10 ulS-
cuss the question as to whether the
coupons of State bonds shall be
made receivable for taxes or not, il
case settlement of the public debt is
made; such settlement does not now
appear as one of the remotest posi-
bilities. But "while the lamp holds
out to burn, the vilest sinner may
return" and the returning good
sense of the Legislature may per-
haps lead to something yet-pro-
Vided they have anything of that
sort to return. But suppose such
settlement should be agreed upon,
what objection can we make, under
the circumstances, to receiving the
coupons of any new bonds that may
be issued in payment of State
taxes. An Individual fails and goes
to his creditors for a compromise.
He proposes to pay sixty cents on
the dollar, and if he can give a
satisfactory guarantee that he will
comply with his promise, the cred
itor accepts. But he is not fool
enough to surrender a note for one
hundred dollars for a sixty dollar
note, without some sort of guaran-
tee that the new note will be met.
The bonds of the State of Ten
nessee have been issued with a
promise that the interest should be
paid seni-annually. No interest
has been paid for several years and
no effort made to pay it. Now our cred
itors come forward and propose to
relieve US of a large part of our bur-
den by liberal compromise. But
in view of the past, they will ma
turally want some sort of guaran-
tee that we will pay according to
promise. Those opposed to making
the interest receivable for taxes say
that this would imply a want of con-
fdence in our integrity, but if it
does there is nothing strange in that.
If the world has lost confidence in
Tennesseeans, they alone are re-
sponsible for it. Their own conduct
has brought it about.
Should we make a com promise
and honestly comply with the terms
OF the new contract, we must pay
the interest, and if we pay it, what
objection can there be to making
the coupons receivable for State
taxes? If we don't intend to pay,
why then let no new contract be
made.
If compromise is agreed upon
for funding the debt, let there be
large amount of it in bonds of fifty
dollars and upward, and let us in
duce our own people to take as
many of them as possible. If the
interest is made receivable for taxes,
we believe this can be done. Let
US strengthen our credit at home,
and before we expect others to have
unlimited confidence in us, let us
show that we have confidence in
ourselves.

THE
KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE FOR 1879
THE


Subscrfb Tor g Good. Reliable News
paper.
Ihr DAILY CHRONICLE, and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE,
will be kept up during the year
1879 to their usual high standard.
By enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants of our
readers, we hope to merit a contin-
uation of the liberal patronage
heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not a Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, we commenced the pub
LEGATION of the CHRONICLE. In all
these years we have battled for Re-
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
a truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
AS newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our Geographic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit OF
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor-
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
ly correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub-
lican journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure
upon the country and the general
reduction of values, we have decided
to reduce the price of the WEEKLQ
WING AND CHRONICLE to suit the
times. In the future we will send
our weekly paper to subscribers on
the following.

War on Tammany.

New York, Sept. 23.-The World,
in its war upon Tammany, has entered
upon an exposure of the condition of
the working classes here. 1t says it
will conduct systematic inquest into
their necessities. That the times are
better for capitalists, investors, trades
men and merchants Of all sorts we have
already ascertained and shown. Are
the times better for the toiling poor
who make up the main body of our
population? 1t is evident from tn
conversations printed to-day with cal
drivers, conductors and other employ
es of the city railroads, that the city
toilers are forced to pay higher rents
relatively than their fellow citizens,
and because there are no such things as
good, well organized market system
or transportation system in New York.
The poor pay higher prices relatively
for food than the well-to-do. For this
state of things the World contends that
Tammany is largely responsible for the
bad government forced upon the
metropolis.
