fore street mob, 1t always fails when
tested in competent court. And
Beaslcy's fraud defense is untenable,
for that he or any other man or set Of
men can lawfully or morally rcpudate
the acts Of an agent as between the
principal and an innocent third party in
interest. Tennessee, az repudiator
fair and square, would command the
respect thieves accord the boldest OF
their number. As a whining pleader of
the baby act, and IL skulking cuIprit be.
hind her sovereignty, Tennessee would
deserve the scorn Of all decent conmu-
ties and men.
Turn which way the State can and
this debt question will confront her un-

change Of creditors instead Of lettering
our condition would worse ii becaUsc
the fresh GELS will not. be used to being
skinned, and will therefore wriggle
more violently than those we have been
haying for twenty years. The cheapest
way is the honest way; Settle the debt
on the best terms We can get and let US
have peace On the subject forever.
