seems to be a continual and stubborn
war wagiug between proprietors and
renters, The law is so constructed as
to reach the occupant first, then the
agent or owner. The occupant never
fails to lay the blame on the owner, in
many cases putting it correctly. More
attention on the part of agents to com.

seem in better Taste.

JUDGE wITHEY'S DECISION.
A Nashville View of Its Bearing
ON the Canvass.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. September 81.
The decision of Judge Whitney, of the
United States circuit court, in the
suit Of G. Amery Stevens aud other
bondholders of Tennessee state bonds
against Tennessee railroads. was re-
ceived tonight by Lewis Y. Baxter.
clerk of the circuit court. After re-
citing the tenor Of the bonds and the
statutes under which they were issued
and the claims of parties, the court
decides that the state was the princi-
pal debtor and not a surety; that the
contract between the state and com .
pany is that the state shall have a lien
for the payment by said company of
said bonds, but it is nowhere required
by the state, and therefore not assent
ed to by the company that the latter
shall pay the bOndholders; that
the lien secured by the statute was ?
lien in favor of the STATE alone. and
that the holders had no lien upon the
roads, hence he did not find it neces
sary to decide whether the bondhold-
ers had become estopped by acquies
cence in the sale of the roads, or fund
ing of interest or otherwise. nor
whether the proceedings resulting IL
the sale were legal, and finding under
section twelve Of the act of 1851 and
1882, it follows that by this jude
ment neither the foreclosed or the
nOn-foreclosed railroads are subject to
any lien in favor of the holders of tn,
internal improvement bonds issued by
the state of Tennessee under acts
passed by the state. The decree will
be entered in each case, dismissingthe
bill of complainant therein, with costs
to defendants. 1t will be remembered
that the defendants in this suit con
tended hat they required no new
privilege as to how and with what
they could pay their debts to the state,
under the acts of 1869 and 1870, and
that they did proceed from misrepre-
sentation of the repudiating class,
seconded by the bondholders, seeing
through the erection Of an artificial
public sentiment, to fix upon the rail
roads the liability for the bonds that
had been issued to them. The de-
cision effectually disposes of the in
aammatory charges, both against the
Tennessee railroad management and
the friends of state credit, and will
have the effect tomaterially strengthen
the state credit cause in the coming
November state election,

strong endorsers, and some claim to
be able to negotiate choice paper as
low as 6 per cent.
