CONCLUSION.

The writer acknowledges a pro
found interest in the prosperity of
Tennessee, where he still has family
connections, and he feels great inter
est in the late slave States, where
he resided for years, yet this letter
perhaps would not have been written
but for the fact that the widow and
orphan, for whom he is agent, have
for years been holders of the States
bonds.
Thanking you for your courtesy
in publishing, remain, very re-
specially, q. llEYHoE:

property as well as in their persons,
and therefore it is perfectly capable
of obtaining a judgment in the
United States Supreme Court on
State bonds assigned to it by its cit
liens, when the defendant is one of
the States Of the Union. But how
much more is it for honor and in
terest of Tennessee that the question
i'm her case be set at rest by the cor
dial consent of all parties to the
compromise bonds. Herein the
the prosperity OF Tennessee is bound
up in the peace Of Tennessee.
EFFECT ON THE MORALS OF THE
PEOPLE.
There is subtle influence of the
greatest importance connected with
the action the people on this ques-
ton. Governments by their faith
ful iuliillment OF obligations have a
powerful influence on private worth
and character We AL admit that
private worth and character, instead
of being suppressed, should be call
ed forth by an honorable govern
ment. The Latin prOverb applies
in such case.3-"Q uaiis Rex, Tails
GreX"-(as il the leader, SO is
the herd)--for unless the govern
ment be good, the government Will
be swayed from right by the fnrce
OF example. The gain in morals of
the people, therefore, by quietly
permitting the present law to work
out its good effects, would-if we
could but see it-far outweigh all
advantages which could possibly
come of an attempt to reduce the
ratio of settlement ten cents on the
dollar; and no party, however, nu-
merous or respectable, which seeks
the honor of the State and the high
est good of the people, can afford 10
make the trial.
\ quotation from the Literary
Studies OF the late Walter Bagehot"
(on page 404-Longman, Green &
Co., London, 1879 is of great signif-
icance in this connection:
"A great historian has observed
rs follows: That honesty is the best
policy il a maxim which we fairly
believe to be generally correct with
respect to the temporal interest of
individuals; but with respect TO SO
cieties the rule is subject to still
fewer exceptions, for this reason,
that the life of societies is longer
than that of individuals.
cit is possible to mention men
who have owed great worldly
prosperity to breaches of private
faith; but we doubt whether it be
possible to mention State which
has, on the whole, been gamer by
breach of public faith"
