II Is generally admitted that the Demo-

ture and elect United States Senator in
1881. They will need to do 80, and also
secure the upper chamber elected in New
York this autumn, which takes part In
electing Senator at the same time, In
order to retain the Democratic majority in
the Senate. That body now contains 70
Democrats and 80 Republicans, with David
Davis as an Independent. In 1881 the
terms OF Eve Democrats representing
States whose Legislatures are now Repub.
lican terminate, Making allowance for
Bruce, who will be succeeded at the same
time by Democrat, these changes would
reduce the Democratic maiority to one,
and IL as far ahead as 1883, Illinois and
New Jersey are still Republican, the
Democrats will lose their majority in the
Senate, unless they pick UP seat in Ohio
now and one In New York npxt year. In
other words, unless Ohio and the West Is

as the depression in the marriage rate,
that unerring test Of the material condition

What Shall be Done with Com
Vicf H.abOsf

No one need think us foolish enough
to suppose that the lessees Of the peni-
Tertiary can be disturbed in their
right. Their contract with the state
is binding, and can not be abrogated.
Hence, they have the right to con-
troll the convicts for the next four
years, or nearly SO. At the expira-
ton of their lease the Legislature can
and ought to refuse to again lease the
penitentiary to anyone. This much
we deem it necessary to say before
proceeding to discuss the question at
the head of this article, what shall be
done with convictlabor
There is but one place where they
can be put to avoid coming in contact
with free labor, and that is, working
the country roads. No one would
complain of this. Every laboring man
would give it his unqualified sanction.
1t so happens that every man required
to work the roads desires to avoid il.
1t is difficult to force them sometimes
TO do it. Hence, not a complaint
would be heard on the subject.
What would be the result of this
system 4? None other than the con-
struction of class of roads that ould
add vastly to the wealth of the state
and do mole to build her up, and to
widen the area of her commence than
all the railroads we can hope to con-
struct in the next hundred years.
There are indeed sections of the state
where there never will be railroads.
The great needs of Tennessee are i'm
proved common roads. They are
needed in every county from Bristol
to Memphis, and nothing has so re-
tarded her growth as the lack of them.
Look at our own roads; they are
disgrace to our civilization. Persons
from distant states, when they come
here and see their condition, invariably
become disguised. Who CAN blame
them
All this can be remedied by con-
Wet labor. Let each county take its
own criminals and work them on its
roads. Il is said such system would
be expensive to the counties. Grant
it. Every dollar thus expended would
return to the treasury of the county
two-fold more in the enhanced value
of real estate and in the increased IA
cilities of transportation. -KnOrritJe
