THE TENNESSEE BONDS.
NEW YORK, April 81, l

New YORK, April 81, 1879.
To the Editor of the N. Y. Herald:
The visiting statesmen from Tennes-
see entertained at. dinner, at belmont
co.'s, on Saturday last, number of New
York bank presidents, with the view of
discussing a law recently passed by the
Legislature of Tennessee to fund the
debt of the State at fifty cents Of its
face value in four per cent. bonds, in
interest payable annually in Nashville,
which the gentlemen from Tennessee
are very anxious the creditors of their
State should accept. From the accounts
published in the newspapers Of what was
said and done on the occasion it does
not appear that any actual bondholders
were present Mr. Chas NJ. Fry, said
to be one of the Funding Association
.. S. A. Qimited), presided, but he is
not known as a bondholder Of Tennes-
see. Nor did Mr.. Tappan, of the Gala
tin National Bank, who proposed a res
olution accepting the pittancc offered
by Tennessee, claim to be bOnGholdcr.
Mr.. Tappan's resolution was seconded
by Mr.. Cossitt, who is director in
Tennessee railroad. Mr.. Tappan's bank
was at one time interested in the sale of
bonds of a certain Tennessee railroad.
General Pryor, who was present, is not
an attorney for the bondholders. The
bpndholders' committee paid him fee
to present to the Legislature of Tennes-
see proposition to compromise the
debt at sixty cents on the dollar of prin-
cipal, and interesf in six per cent. bonds,
and nothing more or different. 1t seems
that he now has gone to the other side,
and volunteered his opinion that the
bonds of the State issued to railroads
under the Internal Improvement act of
1859 are not a lien upon them, and that
too in direct opposition to the opinion
of Charles O'Conor and Judge Hoadly.

"PAsS OVER TIE HASH"
By A. !. T.

RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED TO THE PARTISAN

saw the hotel in its palnaisst days,
The Landlord was Jolly aud gay:
And the guests wore smile Of contentraent and
And the hours passed smoothly away;
Ana with pleasing emotion they hung mp their
And entered the great Dining Hall
And they anchored their forks in potatoes and
But the former v.sre wretehedly small
But saw when those best bones we're naked and
And the little potatoes were gone,
That the guests changed their smiles for look of
despair,
And their faces looked haggard and wan
But the waiter was there pouring soup on the
bones,
And wiI,ing the spoons on his shirt;
He had come 10 the reucue with two erusty pones
Made Of cornmeal and water and dirt;
Then heard small voice in the midst Of the
crash
"Pm hungry I'm hungry! pass over the Hash :
saw lean boArder preparing to carve
A slice from an ancient baked heh;
As he was about to be then.
Oa tender and brown muffin she seemed,
As she lay on her back in the dish,
Aud the gravy and crust, and the pepper and
sauce,
We're as nice as boarder could wish.
But saw when he gazed on the same ancient hen,
Disappointed and hungry and mad,
That he looked at the edge Of his knife with a
frown,
And his features grew mournful and sad.
But the waiter was there who had baked that old
hen,
And had served up the gravy and crust;
He came with brickbat to sharpen the knife
On his pantaloons he wiped of the dust;
Then heard weak voice in the midst of the
crash
"I'm hungry I'm hungry pass over the Hash. .

Who wanted refreshments and rest;
His face besmed with joy as he neared the Hotel,
And with smiles his delight he expressed;
And the fast-coming meal-time gave promise of

And the loud sounding gong pleased his ear;
And the tallow-dips glimnered SO bright in the
Hall,
As the hour for supper drew near.
But saw him again looking wistful and pale,
As he scraped on bone with his knife;
his eyes lost their brightness-hs visage was sad,
And he ionged for the comforts of life.
But the Waiter was there, and his fingers were
creased
In the gravy that hoated the flies
He showed him an onion ell withered and scored,
And the traveller gasped with surprised:
But he knew that fer this he must pay out his
cash,
And he cried out, "I'm hungry pass over the

DLETETTCAL.

A very interesting point was raised in
the United States Circuit Court, st.
Louis, the other day, concerning the le-
gal rate of interest of bonds issued in
one Stats and payable in another. The
case in point is that of Thomas Fauntle-
roy, who obtained judgment against
the City of Hannibal on a number of
defaulted coupons on Hannibal bonds,
issued at Hannibal and payable at a
New York bank. In awarding judg-
ment, Judge Dillon allowed per cent.
interest, the legal rate under Missouri
laws. The plaintiff wanted the legal
rate of interest in New York and took
the position that interest on the bonds
must conform to the laws of the State
in which the bonds were payable, and
not the laws of the State in which the
bonds were issued. The United States
Circuit Court decided against the plain
tiff, and the case will GO to the Supreme
Court of the United States.

a word that a child can utter. bn
which the archangels stand in awe
of; word that can make the marty

THE ROCK OF FAITH
II is no small thing to be CHRIS
tiau; to feel when surrounded b
the meshes ofadverse circumstances
when evil powers are grasping a
you to drag you from The strait aud
narrow path, that there is a power
within your reach greater han ali
these; that God will put His everlas-
ting arm around You and bear you
up. 1t is worth living FOR to have
such a faith as that. When storms
gather upon the mighty deep 1t is
thea the mariner trusts the need e
most and needs it most, and it is il.
he storms of life that the Christiao
eeas most to trust the Fatherhood
Of God. There is a leseon in the
story Of Jacobs ladder that ought to
be remembered. The ladder was
there before Jacob saw it; it is there
still. The angels tore away the cur
aims that hid it, but they have bee 4
drawn together ain since. Angel
to day are passing up that ladder
ard coming down TO earth as of old.
l have read often, with tears il
my eyes, of the death Of great
American, who vas honest in his in
fidelity, who followed the bent Of his
own thoughts, and declared thai
every human being was entitled 10
personal liberty. Half the worln
listened to his utterance as if there
were q charm in his InhdeI teachings
as if that were the truest way Of de
veloping manhood. Christians were
aroused and asked why such a thing
was permitted. But the end came
the end always comes. The grea'
thinker lay on his death-bed. He
had locked the door on the inside
and shut out the Christ, He had nc
faith to lean upon, yet those who
bent over him as he breathed his last
heard his lips murmur, 20 Lord
Jesus have mercy upon me, have
mercy upon mel"
It's a serious thing to meet ones
horizon, and every man does meet it.
For Sc ,enty years it is something in
the distance. and then one day we
must stand face to face with it.

DEATH IN THE FAITH.
Sermon by Rev. George III. Hep
worth.


worth.
"These all died in the faith" was
the t. xt selected by Rev. Mr. Hep
worth esterday for bis discourse in
the R formed Protestant Dutch
Church, Fifth avenue and Forty
eighth street. It's not the language Of
boastful pride, said the preacher, but
rather of triumphant Christian faith.
st. 2 al summoned from the vastly
deep the spirits Of those whose ra-
dent genius shed its brightness On
the ages as examples of unwavering
faith in Almighty God. He sum.
moned the spirit of Abraham, who
left his northern home to seek his
fortune wherever God had put it;
who listened implicitly to that Voice
which called from the midst Of eter-
nifty, 81 am with you to the eud o.
the world" He summoned the
spirit of Moses, who, in answer to
that same voice. led his people over
the trackless desert and through the
binding wilderness. I am struck
by the unique description of faith
given by ST. Paul. 1t says that faith
is a substance, that under the infu-
ence of the heart the dream Of faith
becomes crystallized into a reality,
changed into motive. 1t says that
We now live in the twilight, but
await the dawning of a perfect day.
1t says we are to live as if tomorrow
were within our very grasp.
THE FAILURE OF REASON.
Religion, then. is not a far away
hypothesis. but q sturdy, electric,
magnificent, clarifying faith. Left
to our ewn unaided reason we inevi-
tably grope in the dark. There is no
man who treads this foot-stool so
poOr. in my opinion, as he who closes
the Bible, shuts it with a clasp and
thereafter trusts his own unaided |
reason but the man who prays as if
heaven were close at hand has a con-
sciOus power to bear anything and |
everything, He only knows what
life means in its grandest definition
who is able to put his hand up in the
air while his soul feels the touch Of
outstretched hand that is
able and willing to save. There were
shadows in human history until Cal
vary then the clouds parted and the
sunlight poured through. l have
often thought it would be a grand
thing to sit at the feet of Plato or
and listen with rapt atten-
ton to his mighty reasonings. Atb-
ems throws her intellectual radiance
over all ages. The unaided mind
rose to its greatest height in that
city. Yet Plato and Aristotle only
guessed at heavon-only dreamed of
he future life. To sit at the feet OF
Christ and hear Him say Il go to
prepare q place FOR you" is a nobIer
boon than to walk tie marble halls of
Athens. The man from whose SIN
,er tips flows light, whose voice i
wen the deaf can hear. speaks to me t
O-day. and trust His word just as '
hough, as st. Paul says. it we're al .
eady attained. The world is no :
ark to any man who trusts in God. :
here are certain indestructible doc Ii
-ines on which all churches rest. 0
here is Providence, a word with 1
'onderful significance; a word that s

4 TYPICAL AuERICAh.

Judge Asa Packer, who died on Saturday in
Philadelphia, was an American of the Amcri-
cans. In no other country is there soil and
room to make just such growth as Lis possi-
BILE. He began life as canal bOatman, and
when he ended it was not only one of the
wealthiest men in the country, but a great
commercial power and philanthropist who
had seen and grasped the most practical
ard direct method of helping his generation.
Nowhere else would shrewd young laborer
have been able to detect the sources of en0r-
nous future wealth and to bring them within
his own command; in no other society would
he, as an adult have been able easily to edu-
cate himself. and to step at will into the class
for which his keen Intelligence, noble charac-
ter and simple, genuine manner fitted him.
Nothing lasts but character" William Welsh
was wont to say. And that is true in
arstocratic governments as well as ours
but only of the dead. The Apostles them
selves in England or France would be
snubbtd while living on account OF their origin.
Here, man like Asa Packer has not only
the chance to reach his full development, but
receives at every forward step the recognition
and homage which he deserves. The Ameri-
can public can bear to be twitted with its
lack of appreciation OF art, as long as it
appreciates the highest manhood, with the
fine instinct which it invariably has shown.
Judge Packer, as the controller of the
Iehgh Valley Railroad and of vast coal in
terests, was the employer of large bodies of
men, and made every hour to feel how great
was his power, but he always retained
a singular simplicity of manner. This
and his total lack of self-consciousness
were probably the secrets of his strong per-
sonal influence. He was neither ashamed nor
vain of his rise from an humble beginning.
The poverty of his youth, like the wealth of his
age, was but an exterior circumstance, to
which he attached 10 weight. At the
celebration of his golden wedding i'll Mauch
