HAYES in Tennessee.

Cincinnati Commercial Interview with Sena-
tor Stanley MattheWs,l
So far as | observed it in Tennessee,
l noticed, first, a very warm and gem
eral appreciation of the spirit and re-
suits Of President Hayes administra :
ton, particularly of what is called his
Southern policy, He was very gener-
ally spoken of, not only in terms of
very great respect. but in terms of
warm regard, and if those expressions
are an Indication of the real feeling of
the people, as | believe they are, he
would be the strongest and most avail
able candidate for the Presidency that
could be nominated by the Republi-
cans. And if the question could be
put 70 the people directly and dis
tinctly, as between him and Mr.. Til.
den, | have not the least doubt that
he would carry the State against Mr.,
Tilden two to one.

half outright aud forever. This
sort Of compromising the State
can very well submit to.
On tho whole This offer made
by the bondholders does not meet
our wishes or commend itself quite
to our judgement. The stepping
own to 8 per cent. must be tor a
longer time, or we cannot see our
way clear to it. These gentlemen
who have proposed this plan of
settlement, profess the most pleas
ing astohishment at the reception
they have met. They had been
taught to believe we were a pack
of bowling regulators. They
have felt tho pulse of the State
and have realized our broken con-
dition. They say they have met
courteous, grave and cultivated
gentlemen, and are anxious to cone
tribute to our relief. The enc
obstacle is to get the Consol bond
holders to consent to better terms.
The conference is not ended,
and we have hope it will readjust
the debt of Virginia, and leave it
on a satisfactory basis.

THE PROPOSITION.

The conference of the Joint FL
nance Committee with the Bond,
holders was no small matter. The
bulk of the great public debt
of Virginia was Represented. AT
ter an interview between the par
ties extending through two days q
proposition has 'ecn made to the
General Assembly. Its features
arc as follows: The entire debt
plus half the unpaid and ac:umu-
lated interest to be funded into
new bonds to run 40 years, and to
bear 3 per cent. interest for five
years, 4 per cent. for 25 years, and
5 per cent. for the remaining ten
years. Each peeler bond so fund.-
ed to be accompanied by two Of
the Consol bonds, and all Of them
to have the tax.receiva, le coupon
feature.
The foreign Bonjholders Asso--
citation and the Funding Associa-
rion of the U. s. of America,
Limited, undertakes to bring the
bulk of tho debt into the arrange
ment, without any expense to the
State. Mr.. McCulloch, who was
Secretary of the Treasury under
President johnson, expresses per-
feet confidence rs to their ability
to secure the success of the meas
IRE, should they undertake it, but
he thinks this is about the best
proposition they will be able to
make good.
The worst feature of the meas
IRE is the coupon tax-roceivable,
and j. Is a serious question to be
entertained by those who have
condemned that measure as unre-
publican and unwise. IL 10 argued
that to vote for any compromise
retaining it, will DO to endorse that
odious and unsound principle
This depend upon circumstances.
Let us SOC. BY the present arr
rangcmont we are met unanimous
ly with twelve hundred thousand
OF these coupons. A compromise
which would reduce them In
amount to nine hundred thousand,
would DO getting rid Of three huns
dred thousand OF them annually,
But this bill gets rid Of 100000
of them annually for only B years.
AT the end of that time the same
$i2, would DO upon us, and so
remain for % years. So that the
reduction Of one fourth Of tho
coupons would last for only five
years. We are free to cay that

THOMAS WESLEY FARLEY.

It is our painful duty to record to-

health for three or four months, hav-
ing suffered a stroke Of paralysis some
time last fall, from which he never en-
tirely recovered. Mr.. Farley was a
man Of unblemished character. Up
right, honorable, gentle and affection
ate. In all respects gentleman. But
above all he was sincere christian.
Perhaps too modest and undcmonstra-
tive; yet none who knew him fully,
and especially during the closing days
Of his illness, will doubt his prepare.
ton for the better life beyond the
tomb. Mr.. FARLEY leaves one son
and four daughters and large circle
Of friends to mourn his loss. He had
been a consistent member Of the
Methodist church for more than a
quarter Of a century.
His funeral will take place to-mor.

buried with masonic honors. As q
mason, he stood high and above re.
