A GOOD SALE OF BONDS,
Tennessee's New Issue of q las
Bring Par and Accrued Interest.


New York, Feb 1.-THE Tribune will
say tomorrow: I'm striking evidence of
improving credit and promise of better
times in the south, is the negotiation
just made by Latham, Alexander g. Co,
fiscal agents of the state of Tennessee.
These bankers have sold within the last
day or two 100000 Tennessee Az bonds
at par and accrued interest. These
bonds were authorized by the last session
of the Tennessee Legislature for the pur-
pose of building the state penitentiary
1t is extraordinary that this issue of AIS
could be sold at par and interest, while
the per cent. bonds were selling in the
open market on about a 5 per cent. basis
1t can only be accounted for on the theory
that the 3 per cent. bonds, at current
prices, could only be bought in small
amounts, while the round lot OF AZ per
cent. bonds made them attractive to
Blair & Co., Wall street bankers, who
took the entire lot.0

Deafness Cannot Ne Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear. There 10
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the result
and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed
condition OF the mucous surfaces.

RAPID GROWTH OF BIMsTALLIsM.

Nothing is more certain than that the
number of bimetallists is increasing al
a ratio not often recorded of any propa-
gands. The universal misery through
out the world. aud the exhaustive dis
cussion of the money question, have
educated the people to surprising de-
gree. Converts to the cause are being
numbered all over the world by millions.
A recent telegram states that Emperor
William is studying the question. He
well may, for Germany dealt the death
blow to silver. In his exulfAfion at the
payment in gold OF the ivh milliards
indemnity to Germany bysFrance fol-
lowing the Franco Prussi3n war, Bis
msrck demonetized silver iii 1871. This
was fatal mistake in policy. France
continued to maintain her double
standard of gold and silver, and within
ten years she showed no signs of any
loss from the payment of this enormous
indemnity. British and Wall street
gold in 1873 induced the United States
to follow suit, and to discredit
one of the twin money metals OF the
constitution. This was the browning
crime OF the age, and has caused more
suffering over more extended sreas than
any enactment that ever emanated from
legislative body. The evil of the act
OF 1873 was partially remedie by the
passage of the Bland bill in 1873. This
was simply palliative, but it was the
best that could be done at the time.
The Sherman act was another make
shift, but its repeal was evidence as
strong as proof OF holy writ that war,
relentless and most mslign, was being
waged upon the white metal. The re-
cision OF the purchasing clause of that
act has been followed by the most dis
astrous fall in silver ever known. The
descent has been from $1.29 an ounce
at which figure it was at par with gold
Ito 90 cents, or drop of more than 30
per cent since 1878. Everything the
producer sends to market has kept pace
with the white metal in its de-
clension. Fortunately the world has
been aroused ny the appalling msgni
tude of the disaster, and the bimetal-
lists will coon be on top. In the Unired
States they have doubled in numbers
since the special session. and the acces-
sions to their ranks in England are
almost as great. OF verify there is
a silver lining to the cloud.
