FROM the Memphis Avalanche of
Sunday morning, we Learn that the
Supreme Court decided on Saturday
that the State is liable for what is
known as the new issues of the
Bank of Tennessee. Our readers
need no explanation of this matter,
as it has been frequently and fully
discussed in these columns. This
decision will add about one million
and half to our State debt. There
is no way to avoid or postpone the
payment, as under the section of the
law which provided for the issuance
of these notes, they were made re-
ceivable for taxes, and if no other
provisions are made, the tax collector
will be compelled to receive them.
1t is great outrage upon the tax
payers of the State. The notes
were doubtless issued in and of the
rebellion, but the proof was not
made, and now there is nothing left
but to pay them, we presume.

Batavia, from Liverpool, assisted

until late at night.
The figures for the month of May,
ending yesterday. show foodtide
of immigration which has never be-
fore been approached in the history
Of the country The aggregate
comes within 10000 of being an even
100000, the exact figures being co.
019 steersge passengers. This is
more for this single month by several
thousand, than the immigration for
several entire years. For instance,
in 1876 the years figures were 75,~
O35; in 1877, only 63,S55; in 1878,
only 78,801, and in 1876 the figures
for the twelve months exceeded those
of last month by 1900. The nearest
approach to the total for last month
was in May, 1881, when there were
landed at Castle Garden 70, 791 per
sons, but even this Is ID, 228 less than
last months.
To appreciate the full extent of
the present vast wave of immigration
it is necessary to remember that
many passengers who arrive from
Europe, travelling first or second
class, are also immigrants. The great
majority of intending settlers, of
course, travel in the Storage; but
as those who can afford it come as
cabin passengers, and as these are
never landed at Castle Garden-where
only steerage passengers are recelv>
ed-no account of them is taken In
the figures furnished by the Commits
sioner of Immigration. There is
percentage of steerage passengers
who are not new immigrants, con-
sisting of foreigners who live in this
country, and who make visits to the
old country, travelling Storage.
They are counted In with the others,
as it is impossible to discriminate
| but these numbers are SO small that
they do not offset the immigrants
coming as cabin passengers, of whom
no account is taken.
Thus far this year the excess of
immigrants over the first five months
of last year-as shown at Castle
Gardens 1882; the total for
January, February, March, April and
May, Of 1881, being 1S2,0S2, as com
pared with 228,404 for the same
| period last year.

fciency of our respective changes Of

hclency OF our respective changes of
base
But there is one paragraph in the
Republicans gratuitous and for the
most part good-natured lecture of
which we will take notice, not so
much for the reason that we think it
will do US the slightest injury where
we are known, but because it justi-
>hes us in saying something to which
we would not have alluded. It is as
follows:
The people of this district have
an idea if Rule is honest in all he
says, if he were to go to Congress
with all his bitter feelings against,
and against the friends of Houk,
that he would absolutely try to undo
all that Houk has ever done. II
Houk had succeeded in getting some
poor soldier pension, Rule would
try to have it stopped.
Now with all due respect
to the writer of this paragraph,
we undertake to say that
here are not bakers dozen of
intelligent men in this Congressional
district who believe any such thing,
and we do not believe that the editor
of that paper believes it himself.
If he has any good reasons for think
ing SO, we will thank him to state
them. There are few thousands OF
ex-Union soldiers in East Tennessee
| with whom we had the honor of
serving in the late war We served
with them to the close of the war,
and did not resign the first time we
smelt gunpowder, or heard the
crack of musket. These soldiers
are to be found in every county and
nearly every civil district in the Sec
ond Congressional district. They
| know whether we have ever been
guilty of anything that would SUBJ
ject us to the charge of preventing
a ''poor soldier from getting a PEN
sion for the reason above assigned,
or any other reason. We are per-
fectly willing for the ex-soldiers OF
East Tennessee to decide that point
We challenge the editor of the Re-
publican, or any other man, to pro-
duce one iota of proof that we have
not been the friend of the soldier
in the war as well as in peace. We
are not in the habit of parading oul
war record before the public, anc
would not do so now but for tht
above unfounded insinuation, bu
we are perfectly willing to b.
judged by that record and by all ou
acts, as to whether or not we are th,
soldier s friend.
We beg pardon of our readers fol
having mentioned this matter, some
what personal to ourselves, but W,
think they will agree that the
paragraph above quoted iustifies us il
doing SO. Personally, we have iounc
the editor of the Republican gen
tleman. If we had not, W,
would not now notice wha
he had said, and we do not expect t.
newspaper, and We do not expect t.
fill its columns with matters of a per
sonal character. We shall, however
speak of the records of public men
and when we misrepresent ihei
records, they and their organs hav
right to correct us, but so long a
they fail to deny the truth of on
rfafomnnte thew ara wa1aoua ~ ra
