The Nashville Banner and Nash
vile american are engaged in quite
d warm discussion of the question
as to whether any settlement of the
State debt should be submitted to
the people for ratification by the
Legislature. before it becomes law.
The Banner fayors the submission
and the american opposes. The
last Legislature never could have
agreed upon basis of settlement if
il had not been for the clause leav-
ing its final adoption to the people.
Neither will the next one be able to
agree upon anything.

A. B. MELENDY, five miles west Of
Rogersville, has an excellent race
track. We suggest to the owners
and raisers of blooded horses in Haw.
kins and the neighboriug counties,
that it would be a good idea to get
up series of races there next fall.
There are many fine horses in this
country whose speed has never been
tested or properly developed. A
first-class, old fashioned horse race
would show us all what kind of stock
We own, and would do much good in
stimulating the people to improve
the blood of their horses. Who
knows but some gentleman here is
the owner of colt which might be
developed into a hundred thousand
dollar race horse? The only way to
find out tho fact is to train the colts,
try their speed, endurance and other
good qualities. and thus find out who
has the best. Kentucky has made
herself rich raising fine stock. We
can do the same. Horses are of more
value than any other animals Blood
ed horses are worth five times as
much as any other kind. The only
way we know to encourage the rails
ing of fine horses is to run them. We |
have never believed there waz any
BARN in il. Therefore we should be
glad to see a Blood-horse Associa
ion formed here, race track char
,ered and an annual series of races
Such an association.
conducted, would increase
he value of the horse stock one
hundred fold within five years.
What do you say. gentlemen. will
'ou organize such a society, and
ave the first races in October, 1880?
Ill speak at once, and let's have the
natter understood. Ten thousand
Deople will come to the races.

EVERY year there are coined at the
United Stat, minis what are known as
proof-set sof all the coins of the colIatry,
which can be purchased by any one de-
string them, and as collectors want a
complete set for each year, the number
of coins struck off annually is con-
siderable This year the demand for
these proof-scts will be much larger at
the minis than usual, as there has been
no minor fractional silver coined, and
consequently no one has any bearing
the date. The mipts, however, will
coin proof-sets, and these, on account
of the small number coined, will in
time become very valuable. Already
numerous inquiries are being received
at the minis as 10 when these proof-sets
will be struck off.

now called Gournah which is forty
miles northeast of Busreh, in Turkish
Arabia, at the confluence of the Tigris
and the Euphrates. The country is
destitute of vegetation, with the ex-
ception of date palms. The tree pointed
out by the inhabitants as the true and
original Tree of knowledge differs from
the Indian tamarind in that the former
bears a bean and does not grow to half
the size of an ordinary tamarind tree.
The eagernoss shown by Europeans to
possess branch of this tree has given
rise to good deal of imposition on the
part of the natives, and unless large
buckseesh is forthcoming, they prevent
all attempts on the part of the visitors
to possess a branch.
