When the Legislature of Louisi-
ana passed bill repeating the char
ter Of the great lottery company With
which its name is SO unenviably con-
nected, and an honest governor APP
proved the bill, it was hoped, and
with reason, that the company and
it's bad cause were doomed to an
early death. But the good work
done by the Legislature has been M
done by the constitutional conyen-
ton, which has, beside recognizing
and continuing the charter Of this
swindling concern, invited all similar
enterprises. to take shelter under its
great seal. by promising licenses to
all that may pay $4,000 into the
State treasury. Louisiana has done
many disreputable things since it
tried the experiment OF licensing
gambling houses and turned the city

deaths occurring are caused either
by imprudent acts Of the patients or
negligence of the nurses" As yet

THE DEBT SETTLEMENT.

The people of Tennessee will never
receive more favorable terms upon
which to settle the State debt than
those contained in the fifty and four
proposition. To accept these terms,
the people place their State in more
honorable light before the world than
by total rejection of them. Voting
down the proposition will postpone the
settlement some years and the interest
accommodating at the rate of six per
cent. ON the $24, 900, 600, will be large
ly more than the difference between a
thirty-three and third settlement and
the fifty and four offer.
The debt is fixed fact and the
sooner it is met fairly and squarely the
better for all interests in the State
Intelligent people scorn the idea of
reputation and would not by word or
act stain the good name of the State.
But the difficulty is that the masses
do not understand the question, and
the present manifestations of unconcern
are chiefly owing to lethargy on the
subject among our leaders, men
who were expected to enlighten the
public mind. We advise acceptance
of the proposition as the safest and
most economical solution of the diff
Guilty. To wait until the railroad suit is
terminated is to postpone settlement
many years and then, after all, to be
forced to face debt largely increased
by reason of said delay. We have
much to lose by postponement and all
TO gain by a settlement
We cannot see how property hold
or or business man can oppose the
proposition. Its defeat will only ag-
grevate the matter and make the final
burden much heavier. Let the voters
then, without prejudice and in spirit
of an enlightened public policy go to
the poles in August and accept the
proposed terms.

Correspondence Of the Nashville Ban
ner-A Sensible Letter-The SOL
Proposition.

LEBANON, Tenn, June 24.-The great
relle1 to the people of the State in ratifying
the 5O-4 proposition seems to be entirely
overlooked by those who oppose the conn
promise. What clamor there has been for
the last few years in Tennessee for more
money, and that, too, by many of those who
now oppose this settlement. The dill pass
Ell by the last Legislature proposing a com
promise, provides that if the people ratify
tins settlement on the 9TH of August, the
Governor shall convene the Legislature in
extra session, and enact the same into
law, and that there shall Immediately issue
S4,OOO,OOO OF small bonds, due forty years
from date, bearing four per cent. interest,
ranging In denominations from s. to Sl00
Put these small bonds into circulation, and
the cry OF hard times in Tennessee will no
longer be heard; business of every kind
Will revive, and we will again be prosper.
Gus people. This is no new experiment.
Pennsylvania in 1S4l issued her "relicf
notes" and paid off her indebtedness
Georgia has recently proved this system an
easy and successful way in paying off her
debt. Her small bonds sell at par; circu-
late as money, and the demand for them
very great, the result of which is that Gcor-
gIa Is one OF the most prosperous Southern
States to-day, although having a debt OF
moIe than ten millions. Why not Tennes-
see do likewise by ratifying the 50-4 propo-
siEion on the 9TH of August, thereby freeing
herself from more than half Of her indebt-
edness, with the liberal proposition of the
railroads to pay one hundred thousand dol
lars annually until our debt Is extinguish-
ed. Issue her four millions in small bonds
ranging from s. to 500, put them in circu-
iation, which will give us plenty of money,
business OF every kind will revive, and Ten
nessee will once more be prosperous State

Mr.. EDITOR Crops looks fine since the
rain, especially corn. There has been most
too much rain for cotton. The people were
pretty we'll up with their work till the last
rain set in; but now old General Green can
be seen in most every field; but it wont take
long to thrash him out if we only have a few
more days sun shine. Wheat crops are now
on hand; the thresher is heard singing in
our land. Wheat is not so good rs was

HATCHIE RIVER.

Col. VIM. M. Harrington, one of
the directors of the Memphis and Louis
vile railroad, returned from Louisville
day or two since, and from him we
are gratified to learn that DIR. Stani-
ford, president Of the Louisville, Nash
vile and great Southern railroad, has
signiied his intention to put a draw in
Hatchie river bridge at an early day.
This will be good news to the people
of Bolivar and on both sides of the
river all the way down to its mouth AS
well as to the cotton and grocery mer-
chants of Memphis. The report that
the railroad company would contest
the constutionality OF the act of the
legislature declaring Hatchie river
navigable was unauthorized. Dir.
Stamford is man of large and liberal
ideas and never has,as far as we know,
used the great power he yields to crush
out the weak interests of small places
on the lines he controls. Every local
ity is allowed fair chance to realize
the benefits of its natural advantages.
We understand that he does not care
to defeat the wishes of the people liv-
ing on Hatchie river but Will cheer
fully insert the draw-bridge and give
them a fair chance as far as the railroad
Is concerned to open and navigate the
river. A side track will probably be
laid at the bridge to accommodate
those who may come down the river
and desire to take the cars at that
point. This is good move for the
railroad, and will make better feel
ing toward the company. We under
stand that Major Benyaurd will short
] Y survey the river from Bolivar to its
mouth. Next fall it is hoped to Sc
cure an appropriation from congress
10 remove the Instructions in the river.
If this cannot be done, the counties
along the river must clean it out

Fourth has come and gone, with it passed
one of the most pleasant days it has ever
been our pleasure to enjoy. The picnic at
the Sulphur Spring was a decided success
1t was bright, beautiful day, and early in
the morning the crowd commenced assem-
bling, ourselves among the number. When
we reached the grounds the sound of the
violin under the skillful manipulation
Of Mr.. ]. P. Wooster, awakened the echoes
OF the sylvan glee,while graceful forms and
willing feet kept time to the music in the
merry country dance Several ladies from
a distance lent their sweet smiles and cheer
ful presence on the occasion. After dancing
had been kept up until the heat of the day,
two short and appropriate addresses were de-
hvered by Mr.. Porterfeld and Mr. d. S.
helms. AT dinner-time the well filled bas-
kets were brought out, and it was our good
fortune to be an invited guest at the table
of Mrs. j. L. Rosson, where we RECALLED our
selves on sumptuous repast. Dinner over
the young folks repaired to the dancing
ground, and 'chased the glowing hours
with light feet" until late hour in the
afternoon. Everybody expressed themselves
well pleased with the days enjoyment
Through the kindness of our affable depot
agent, Mr. Bass Rosson, dance was to have
been given in the depot ware room at night,
but a rain prevented. NEAIINE.

The n. & N. Railroad.

by Gen. Nicely and Others to influence
the Mississippi Central Railroad to
take hold of the Memphis and Knox
Vile Narrow-Gauge convert it into a
broad guage, and put it in running or
DIR by Christmas from this place to
Bolivar and after a while to extend it
to the Tennessee river. 1t Is general
ly understood by all that the stock
holders in the Memphis and Knox
vile Railroad are willing TO turn over
TO the Mississippi Central IN condition
that they complete the road.
This would be one of the best
things that could be done for the peo-
