Mr.. GEORGE B. PETERS made very
good point, to the effect that if the
State did not owe the bondholders
it owed the railways. That is true.
But when the State comes to pay
the railways some rascally transac
tons will be inquired into where
venal newspapers were bought up by
the railways to depreciate the States
credit, that the aforesaid railways
might buy up the bonds cheap and
pay of their Indebtedness with the
same bonds at their face value
Some of these rascally newspapers
put on a good deal of style, consid-
ering The questionable character of
the business they have been engaged
in.-Memphis Avalanche.
Is this possible ? Can it be that
there are "venal newspapers in
the State that We're bought up "to
depreciate the States credit 2 Ii

suits him. He brings no property
and accumulates nothing which he
cannot carry back with him to China.
He works for low wages, steals and
lives on what would starye an ordi-
nary person. He never asks
to be naturalized, never desires to.
He simply comes to compete with
our labor, which he can do very suc-
cesfully, owing to his ability to live
on nothing and to steal even that.
If it is right to levy duty upon
goods manufactured in foreign coun>
tries by pauper labor, in order to
protect the working men of America
against such competition, certainly it
is right to restrict the importation of
the same class of labor direct from
China. 1t is out of the question to
suppose that our laboring people can
support families, educate their chill
dren, and work for such wages
as the Chinese are content to re-
ceive.

the coal fields of southern Ohio, the
Alliance and Lake Erie, the Youngs-
town aud Painsville, the Cincinnati
and Eastern, the Columbus and
Ohio River, and many others in Ohio
representing over 800 miles of nar>
row gauge railways built in that
State during the past five years,
indicate that there must be some>
thin g in this system of railroads.
If Gen. Jno. NJ Corse, who is
president of the Toleda, Delphas and
Burlington, can build over five hum
bred miles of this class of railway s,
and can compete successfully with
the wider gauge, in Ohio, why can
they not be built and made to pay
in the Southern country, especially
in East Tennessee :?
The completion of the Knoxville
and Ohio during the coming season,
will give to Knoxville variety of
Betunlinous coal I understand that
on the lower Elk fork, that excellent
coal for coking has been found,
which is said t. be equal to the Con
nellsville coke, of Pennsylvania. Ii
this is the case some effort should be
made to bring the different iron ores
/ to Knoxville It is well known that
the iron ores along the base of the
Unaka chain of the Smoky Mountains
exceIs those found at the foot of the
Cumberland. The East Tennessee
and Western North Carolina, from
Johnson City to Cranberry, developes
only a portion of our vast iron inter
ests. A narrow gauge from Knox>
vile, via Sevierville, Newport, hug
cling the base of the Smoky Noun
tains, tie tap the East Tenn. and w.
N. G. at Elizabethton, would give to
Knoxville the key to the iron business
of the South. Such road
if built would also develop some OF
the finest agricultural lands in East
Tennessee, and bring to Knoxville
an increased trade.
The narrow gauge costing less in
construction than the five foot gauge,
and having many advantages over
that of the wider, would no doubt
receive encouragement from our
business men, and from the people
along the proposed route.
The Knoxville, Sevierville and
North Carolina Railroad would give
to Sewer County an outlet for her
agricultural products and her vast
mineral and timber interests.
Cooke County, although pene-
trsted by the North Carolina divis.
ion of the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia Railroad, would bave a
more direct outlet TO Knoxville.
Greene County, with her vast iron
deposits, would find market in the
furnaces that would be constructed
at Knoxville.
Embreeville, with her idle furnace
and ore beds, would have ready sale
for every ton of iron made and ore
mined
The magnetic ores of Cranberry
and the excellent ores of Garter
County, and from the other sections
named, would make this city COM
peting iron center. N.Y. L.

SATURDAY, MARCH IL, 1882.

IF, as they told US two years ago,
that part of the State debt created
for the construction of railroads is
illegal and fraudulent, certainly the
Savage Wilsonites are not going to
advocate the payment of half of it
with three per cent. interest. That
would be an outrage. If the State
doesn't owe it, the people ought not
to be expected to pay it. We art
opposed to the payment of single
dollar that the State does not owe
We are opposed to the payment Of
fifty cents on the dollar unless We
owe the debt. But when a lot Of
Democrats make up their minds tc
harmonic they do not hesitate about
preliminaries and details.

the humiliating position assumed by
the Nashville American, we quote its
own words, Having been criticised
by the Chattanooga Times after tie
ing itself on to it's young contempor
airy, the World, it says:
The American has not indicated
at what figure this debt ought to be
settled, but it desires first to unite
the Democracy in favor of settles
ment, and then it will work for the
best settlement to be had to the sat-
isfaction of the bondholders and the
justice and honor of the State. This
is our position, and if it is not ex>
actly clear to our critic of the Times,
perhaps we can make it little nor
so by using Judge Guilds explana-
ton of General Taylor's letter.
During his Presidential campaign,
General Taylor wrote letter, in
which he said: am q Wing, but
not an ultra Wing" Judge Guild
undertook to explain to some of the

meant, and told them that General
Taylor intended to say, II am a

THERE may be something in the
rumor of war between Austria and
Russia, and there may not. Should
there be one, it would be contest
of no small magnitude. Austria had
a population, in 1878, of nearly
100000. Her standing army, in the
same year, was 761,929 men, to
which may be added the landwehr,
stats, gendarmes, &c, making, in
ell, 1,013,953 men. Her navy con-
sisted of fourteen iron-clads and
thirty seven other steamers.
The nominal strength of the Rus
sian army is about 100000 men on
a war footing, and 78O,0S1 in time
of peace The regular army, on a
peace footing, consists of the field
army, 603, POP men reserves, $3.50;
and about 100000 others. On a
war footing, it is much larger.
The navy consists of about thirty
iron>clads, and some other
vessels of smaller pretentions. So it
will be seen that if Austria and Rus
sia want to fight each other, they will
not be prevented for the want of
men on both sides to do the fighting.
They are two great powers, and while
Russia has much larger population
and would, in point of numbers, be
better equipped for the war, still
Austria has enough population,
enough wealth and enough power
to make the fight long and des-
perate one.

Stories of a Cat and a Hen.

Mrs. A. w. Brooks, of East Eliot, Me-,
has cat - years old, for which he has
been vainly offered $50. This learned
pussy will stand up at the word Of COM
mand, bow slowly or quickly as directed,
walk around the room on her hind legs
only, dance, turn somersaults, 90
through the motion of holding a Jews
harp in her mouth with one paw and
playing on it with the other, NEW when
ordered to speak, kiss her paw to visit
ors, hold saucer of milk on her fore
legs and lap the milk, and stand on her
hind feet and with her forepaws catch
bits of bread or meat thrown to her like
baseball player. Her kitten, year
old, will turn somersaults. The same
lady has hen which always wipes her
feet on the mat on entering the house,
and, if asked, Chow do you get your
living, biddy?" will scratch on the floor.
look to see if she has scratched out any,
thing, and then look at the questioner
to see If the answer is correct. This
hen despises the porcelain, wooden and
chalk cheats which some people palm
off on hens for nest-cggs, tumbling
them out of her nest as often as thew
are put in.
