A PAINTERS SToRY.-Facts are stubborn
things and often they put people in very
unpleasant circumstances. That the Rail
road Paints, manufactured by John w.
Masury & Sons and sold by by J. C. Saur,
are not only equal to any other, but are
better than all others, is fact to which
many painters testify, and which has been
demonstrated by all the tests which any
paint can be subjected to. These paints
have been so we'll tested and have given
such universal satisfaction, that the manu-
facturers now give guarantee with every
pound of paint, that they contain all the
merits and will do all that is claimed for
them, viz: that it is the very best paint
now manufactured and sold anywhere.
Recollect it is the Railroad Paint and
Saur's sells IL cheap.

The inaugural of President Garfield
(Which will be found ON our first page)
Is regarded by the Southern press, as
well as the Northern, as vigorous and
conservative document, indicating pa
triotism and craftsmanship rather than
partisanship and sectionalism. 1t is to
be sincerely hoped for the good of the
whole country that they rightly inter-
pref the document, and that the new
President will prove in bis administra-
ton that he gave no uncertain sound in
the inaugural. We have had twenty
years of war, strife and sectionalism,
and shall We now have an end Of these,
and in their stead peace, good will and
prosperity
Whether we are TO have this change
so devoutly wished for, depends very
much, il not entirely, on what the in
augural means. II Garfield means
what he says in the declaration that,
sour people are determined to leave
behind them all these bitter controyer-
sizes concerning things which have been
irrevocably settled" then we are to
have the desired change above named.
On similar occasion, and from the
same portico, President Grant, on the
4th of March, 1869, uttered this la.
comic sentence: ''Let US have peace.
At the end of eight years he went out
Of office with very little evidence that
he ever attempted to execute the pa.
cific mandate he then uttered. Fonr
years ago Mr.. Hayes, from the same
stand, uttered similar plattitudes Of
peace and prosperity that were ag,ing
to be. His administration has ended
without having had the confidence
of either of the great politica.
parties, much less of the people regard
less of parties. And now we have the
promise renewed by Mr.. Garfield under
far more favorable auspices, and the
people, who are not politicians, vii
await its ful6llment with no ordinar,
degree of anxiety and solicitude.

A New Proposition.

The bondholders propose now to
compromise dollar for dollar with three
per cent. interest, payable in ninety
nine years, with coupons receivable for
taxes.
The interest at this rate would be
$50, 900 annually, or 1000 less
than it would be at sos, while the
principal would be $4,000, 900 more
than at the sixty and six proposition.
We look upon this as a speculative
proposition not without political sig.
niGcance and Tennessee is in no mood
to be tantalized with such political leg.
erdemain. She is willing to make O
fair settlement, but will never consen,
to to the above figures, for the simple
reason that they are unjust. We have
always held that the debt is a proper
subject of compromise, and not one o.
dictation by either party.

A FAREWELL ADDRESS.

The following is the synopsis of the
farewell address of Mr.. Hayes, copied
from the New York San. We give it
for what it is worth, believing our
readers have as much right to it as
any one else. We do not believe Mr..
Hayes is the author oft, but the reader
must be his own judge as to that as
well as its appropriateness:
"Fellow citizens : About to lay

average, without counting those visitors who come
to stay only for day or two lie states that the

was not half completed at the date of opening, and
has grown out of all proportion beyond the origi-

The President of the United States has
the fulcrum upon which may rest the

If he but protects himself and sustains
his Cabinet in protecting themselves
against importantly, and if real fitness is
made Of the first Importance, political re-
quests second, and the clamor of the mob
ofnone at all, everybody will soon know
what to expect, and the reform will be far
advanced.
As means to get office and basis for
a spoils party the cry Of civil-service re-
form has already failed. Its projectors
having in view nothing but some new
device whereby they could supplement
their lack of character and influence, fell
back upon cant, false pretenses to SUI
perior virtue, and indifference to Office.
The people long since saw through the
sham, and found the motive to be prov
ender. There will never be any reform
worked out by professionals reformers.
The men of least pretense in that direc-
ton are the peoples best hope, and Presi-
dent Arthur is one of that class.
