A gentleman residing near Clarks-
vile has handed US the following which
he clipped from IN old copy Of tho
Nashville Wing Of May 9th 1886. The
Wing credited il to the Albany Evening
Journal
Forty millions OF dollars, in the form
OF surplus revenue, is locked up in the
National Treasury. The Government
has no use for this money. Indeed,
the welfare, il not the SAFETY, OF the
Republic, requires that il should be
Immediately disposed Of. And in what
manner should it be disposed OF? Gen.
JACKSON, in anticipation OF this state OF
things, when he was influenced by no
motive but to give an honest opinion,
thus answers the question:
"To avoid these evils, it appears to
me that the most safe, just, and federal
disposition which could be made of the
surplus revenue would be its apportion-
ment among the several States, accord
ing the ratio OF representation. "-Fresi-
dent JacksOn's Message to Congress, 1929.
This may be cited as Democratic au-
thority in favor to national aid to edu-
cation. It is deliserance from st.
Jackson and therefore good fountain
head doctrine. There is again surplus
in the national treasury and much lar
ger one than that which troubled the
good people Of 1886. According tc
President Jackson, the most safe, just
and federal disposition that can be made
of it, is TO return it to the States.
In thus returning it to the States
could there be any possible objection tt
a specification that ii be used for schoo
purposesH Is there any more needed
use to which the Southern States, a
least, could put it9
For our part we wouldn't give con
tinental for President Jackson's opin
ion in this regard, or that OF any othel
statesman OF so years ago. Measures
for the present should be governed by |
comnonsense view Of present condi
tons and necessities. But there b
those who formulate their political opin
ions according to those Of the leading
men OF the past and to their attention
we direct the above. Such as are op
posed to national aid, because "it is un
democratic" should give it prayerfu
consideration.

OUR NARROW GAUGE.

About three weeks ago we published
a new proposition from Major Gordon
to the bond subscribers of the /. A. &
T. railroad, the purport of which was
that the subscribers sign away their in
terest in the bonds OF the company in
consideration of the completion of the
road to Princeton by new corporation,
the charter for which MAJOR Gordon
had recently obtained in Kentucky.
Under this proposition, we under
stand, about $50, 1000 in bonds were
signed away. Some subscribers we're
obdurate and refused to sign and a con-
siderable number OF bonds were thus
left outstanding.
The first OF this week these obdurate
subscribers were offered fifty cents on
the dollar for their bonds, to be paid
when the road is completed to Prince
ton.
We understand in this way the great
err portion OF the bonds have been taken
up and that Major Gordon announces
his intention to proceed with the COM
pletion of the road.
We don't know where the money is
TO come from for the building of the
road The fact that Major Gordon re-
Gently paid off the January interest on
the bonded debt gives confidence in his
ability to raise it, and the parties who
have signed these last contracts feel
safe because there is to be no delivery
of bonds until the road is completed.
The CHRONICLE is anxious to see the
road finished, and rejolces TO know that
there is prospect of such thing being
done.
Thursday afternoon Ed. Baxter, esq,
attorney for the L. & N. road brought
suits before Esquire Calwell, in this
city against the l. A. & I. road for the
past due July interest on the bonds held
by the L. & N. company. Under tie
mortgage by which these bonds are Sc
cured the road cannot be sold for the
non-payment OF interest for six months
after the default is made. The suits W e
doubtless brought for the purpose OF
impeding and delaying the completion
C. the l. A. & T. road.
Several suits we're brought in order to
get the amount, which is something
over So 900, within a Justices iurisdic-

We keep the questions standing for
the American or any OF its followers to
answer if they can:
Do you favor an increased State and
county tax for school purposes?
Ii not, what plan do you propose for
the improvement of Tennessee public
schoolsY
Tennessee's illiteracy is large, alarm
ing and disgraceful. Only two dollars
per year for each scholar is the average
for school purposes in this State, and
the public school teachers get the mu-
nifcent salary of $50 per month. You
will not have national aid, what are you
going to do about it?

The manipulating politicians don't
seem to have gotten in their work in
Houston county. The convention at
Erin on the 5th., didn't endorse any
Office seekers position by condemning
the Blair bill, but spoke as follows:
Resolved, that we strongly favor the
building up of our common school sys-
tenn and to this end we favor any legis-
lation, State and National, not incon-
sistent with the fundamental law of the
land, that would foster and encourage
such system.

DR.. WHITE having gone to Canada,
the temporary editor of the Lebanon
Herald announces that he is a Demo
crat and will run the paper in the in
terest Of the party for the next three
weeks. That he is the right kind OF
Democrat and a sensible man is evinced
by the following editorial:
Call it Blair bill, federal aid to edu-
cation or any other name, we are for it,
constitutional or unconstitutional. It
is needed to educate the children Of the
South. The Democrats ought to take
what is offered and as much more as the
government will give and simply offer
their kindest thanks and ask no ques-
tons. What the South needs is money.
The South has been robbed for years
and this is she first chance that has been
offered to get any thing back. The
people want it, let it come and come
quick.

A PLEA FOR THE MlSTERs.

We have watched with painful inter-
est the efforts of our esteemed contem-
porary across the street to abolish from
the English language that good old
democratic title mister.
For some months past that worthy
paper has utterly ignored the word and
if a man has no appendage to his name,
civic or military, more important than
that to which all mature male bipeds
of the genus homo have right, it gives
him no title at all.
The numerous military gentlemen,
whose promotion has mostly been won
in time o. peace, are duly honored by
our contemporary. If a man be a
Judge, or even Squire, the fact SO
appears when the Tobacco Leaf prints
his name but if he is only plain
mister, he is set down as John Smith OF
Bill Jones with no politeness or consId-
Grafton whatever.
We have noted this aristocratic ten
dency in our neighbor with pain and
regret and have at last decided to enter
a mild but very firm protest against the
utter anihilation of all the misters. u
any special class OF titles must go we
think it might be the spurious generals,
colonies, etc. The misters are good cit
liens and the Tobacco Leaf must moi
abolish them.

THE Nashville American says the
South lost $2,OOO,ooo,Ooo in slaves.
Wrong as usual. individuals in the South
lost probably that amount, but did moi
other individuals in the same section
gain it? Did the South, as section,
lose anything by exchanging slaves for
freemen? All she needs is that these
exslaves be educated and made fit for
citizenship and she should have national
aid for that purpose.

THE CHURCH AND PROHIBITION.

DR.. Barbee's sermon at McKendree
church last Sunday on The Church
and Prohibition, Ia condensed report
Of which we publish elsewhere in this
paper) has brought forth storm 'oi
criticism from correspondents in the
Nashville papers.
The Doctor is stxong man and given
to strong and clear enunciations of his
opinions, but in this instance his pers-
peculty has been called in question.
His critics say he makes distinction
without a difference.
We understand the Doctor to be pro-
testing against the church taking an
active interest in the question of pro-
hibition in its purely political aspect.
@@.This is certainly different from that
moral support to the temperance cause
which he truthfully alleges the church
has always given.
To abstain from any entermingling
with politics or political questions has
been a cardinal principle of the Metho-
dist church South in the past. 1t was
this that caused the separation from the
Northen church, and we think DR.. Bar
bee is right in advocating a continuance
of the policy.
The Methodist church is prominent
ly on record against, not only intern
perance, but, the liquor traffic. 1t is no
necessary that its preachers take ar
factive part in controlling elections and
securing the passage of certain meas
ures through the legislature that its pc.
sition in this regard be known.
Since the above was written DR.. Bar
bee has published card in the Ameri
can showing he was not correctly re
ported in the speech we publish else
where. We will publish the card mex
week.

The Lead Trouble.

The Journal says: The troubles with
the lead market are first that csnsump,
ton is much less than it was a year
ago, The Corroders at their meeting
last week, compared notes, and we are
told estimated that the amount of lead
used in their business this year will be
from 10000 to 1900 tons less than in
1885. and TO less degree other manu-
facturers have lessened their consump.
ton. On the other hand, our imports
have been quite large and our produc-
ton greater than in 1885. The effect is
seen in stocks quite inconveniently
large, and including the stocks in
manufacturers hands, sufficient to &C
count for the present eO0dition of the
market.
1t is impossible to say how much
lower lead may go, nor how much
manipulation may have to do with its
decline, but the statistical position of
the metal is such that no important ad-
vance can be looked for until there is
an improvement.

The week has been somewhat off in
the way of transactions, mining shares
and other securities having been quite
stagnant. Bannock has been hawked
about considerably brokers offering it
at $3.50, without takers; everyone
seems inclined to await the coming of
the next bar, and to note with what
frequency they can be turned out in the
future.
Mr.. VS.. Mccormick. of Mccormick &
Co, bankers, was asked yesterday how
this falls trade compared with
previous seasons. His reply was that
it kept abreast of other years,
and was possibly somewhat in advance
of them. Business now in this city, ="
he said, els upon what may be called a
steady and firm basis. There are no
failures, and the greater par of the
merchants are doing a safe and salts
factory trade. The advance in silver,
too. contributes TO give better feeling

Mr.. Mccormick said the wool interests
of the Territory we're yearly increasing
the volume of trade. This year had
been one particularly prosperous, as
the producers generally received the
benefit of the sharp advance in he
eastern markets. Wool money, TOO, all
remains in the Territory; little or none
of 1t goes where the bulk of our mining
dividends go-to New York or San
