Messrs. Ellison & Co. report in their
circular of September 3: ~
For the immediate future the posi-
ton Of American cottonis very strong,
owing to the small movements at the
ports caused by the lateness of the
crop, and TO the consequent proba-
bility OF limited arrivals here for
some weeks to come; but the certainty
Of large receipts later on imposes eau
ton on spectators and relieves con-
sumers of anxiety, so that the inter
regnum of semi scarcity may be passed
over without leading to any advance
OF moment in prices, provided the
crop advices continue favorable.
Surats are in plentiful supply, and
their position is comparatively weak.
Egyptians are exceptionally situated,
and, as respects them, everything de.

NASHVILLE World, z

NahnNllie W OIlui 1Is
On the 18th day Of March, 1879, one
of the largest aud one of the most
intelligent body of men, in the whole
history of our State, met in the Max
we'll House for the purpose OF inhu-
.enoing the Legislature, then in session,
to make some sort of a tender to the
creditors of this commonwealth. 1t
would be impossible, at any period in
the history Of Tennessee, to suggest a
list of names embracing more wealth,
more culture, more political, social
and financial influence. They were
gravely and deeply in earnest
about the vexed question Of
the State debt, and acted and spoke
like men who wished some step
taken which would lead to its final
solution and eternal settlement.
It can readily be seen from the
thoughts and sentiments expressed
and set forth in the proceedings below,
that they had made up their minds to
force the General Assembly, then in
the capitol, to make a tender. Look.
ing at the present status of many OF
these eminent gentlemen, one would
suppose hal they should have sent a
committee to New York and to other
places to consult the bondholders
before insisting on the Legislature
taking a step which would be virtually
a readiusting of the debt. The Hon,
Il. A.. James aud the Hon. Il. H.
Ewing, two OF the High Priests Of the
Russell revolt, actually offered a reso
luton, which was unanimously
adopted, pledging the body to await
the action OF the Legislature, and Their
to take that tender and persuade the
bondholder to accept it.
The action oil the meeting was re.
garded at the time as the determined
expression Of the State credit element
to force the Legislature to adopt tn,
50.4 tender. Every man in the meet
ing and out Of it knew that the objec
Of the same was TO induce the Legs
lature to make the 30 4 tender. Thi
view OF the matter is forced on ever,
intelligent reader of the iollowin
proceedings. They were so anxiou
to reach a 1914 tender tina
! they disregarded and overlooke
the right Of the boudholder to b
first consulted. 1t will be seer i
a future issue that the Legisla
