DAVID DAvls's LAST REMARKS.

At twelve O'Clock last Saturday, in
retiring from the Senate, MI. Davis
said.
Senators-Gratitude fails to ex-
press the feeling which moves me
in responding to the generous ex-
pressions in the resolution you have
adopted. AS the presiding officer
of this honored body. I have received
courteous and constant kindness
in the discharge of official duties
and in personal intercourse. | ought
to be, and I.be1ieve I am fully sem
sible. of the obligations imposed by
these acts, the more so as 1 entered
upon the duties OF the chair almost
a stranger to parliamentary prac-
tees. Six years have passed away
since the legislature of Illinois con-
ferred upon me trust which is about
to expire 10y constitutional limita>
ton. I neither sought nor expected
an election which was brought
about by different elements P0-
liticai convictions have separated
me from two great parties and have
subjected my actions here and else
where to criticism of organs of both
organizations. The public man who
steps outside regular party lines is
exposed to Misrepresentation of his
motive, to d charge of weakness in
his conduct lie gains little credit
for moral courage of self assertion
and none for icasting aside ambition
and Indifference of his principles.
In legislation l have striven to on
slider measures solely with reference
to pubic good. and without the
least regard to their political mean
ing. 1 have endeavored to be pa
triotic above. and beyond all other
objects. My great aim has been to
extinguish the strife of sections and
to see union restored in all its in
tegrity with respected and increased
grandeur. THANK God that happy
day has at last come. The north
and south are only geographical ex-
p~ressions; fifty millions of free, hap
py and prosperous people rejoice in
a reunited country, strengthened by
the s%ternest of human trials. I shall
carry aW ayywith me, and cherish as
a solace l n private life, the cordial
friendships formed here. 1t will be
my constant pleasure to reflect that
no one has disturbed the admins
tratIon of the high Office | now re-
sign, bidding an affectionate fare
we'll to every member Of the senate
and every officer connected with it.

KENTUCKY ARD ARKANSAS FALL INTO
LINE.

A late Louisville dispatch says:
After seven months of tedious in
vestigatlon, City Book-keeper Ing
ram has completed an itemized
statement, showing the loss to the
city by the defalcation of the late
tax receiver and back-tax collector
Ferguson. The total foots up
S147,202.50. Little, if any of this
amount, will ever be recovered by

Little Rock, March 2.-The joint
committee of the General Assembly
threw a bomb into both senate and
house this forenoon in the shape of
a report on the discrepancies of the
late State treasurer and Governor,
Thomas j. Churchill. The report
vas read simultaneously in both
houses, and produced no little COM
ment. 1t is simply a report of the
conduct of the business in the treas
urers Office during Churchilrs first
term Of two years. He served six
years as treasurer. The senate
committee, which filed its report
last summer, reported Churchill
short on his first term S1O3,O COO. The
joint committee to-day sets these
figures aside and in round numbers
says the first terms shortage is
S294,00O. The report is generally
very severe on that made by the
senate committee of the preceding
Legislature, and points out various
inaccuracies therein. After the re-
port "a read in the Senate, Pres
ident Judkins, who was chairman
of the old Senate Investigating COM
mittee, took the floor and urged
that the report be not adopted in
lieu of the former report. In the
House, the report was quickly adop-
ted. there being but four votes in
the negative. a resolution was
also adopted instructing the At
tOrney General to bring suit against
Churchill and his bOndsmen.

tons, which is one of the largest
harvests, if not the largest, ever ia

Unless something very serious
and wholly unexpected should hap
pen. there is no good reason why
the president should call a special
session of the new congress, or why
he should summon the senate for
an executive session. Neither the
condition Of public affairs nor ofthe
public business demands one or the
other.

IT the Democrats will just content
themselves with watching their
own public officials so as to keep
them from robbing any more State

will do the balance-that is will

good currency, prosperous times,
and everything that tends to make
a people great and happy.

JACKSON, Tenn, Oct. LIST, 1888.
We call your attention to the ex-

play on the part Of your county in
the greaC West Tennessee Fair at
jackson this fall. The fact that there
will be a large number of Northern
people at the jackson Fair, who will
come to look at the country, meet
our people and see what our country
is capable of, should insure a good
display from every county in West
Tennessee. The Illinois Central Rails
road runs a special train at very low
rates from the extreme part of Iowa
to jackson in this interest. Other
West Tennessee railroads will give
special rates to prospectors for the
same purpose. These Northern peo-
pie come to settle in our country and
invest their money if they are pleas
ed. You will therefore readily see
the importance of good display at
our Fair on the part of your county,
and the Importance of large attend.

counties of West Tennessee. We

will urge yonr people to come and
exhibit their stock and produce.
