ai t The Legislature of Tennessee meet this week
in extra session to decide on tihe question of
a- the State debt. The Legislature has for a
numobr of years past refused to assess a
c- State tax of over live mills on the dollar, and
a as the Mtawt debt is large and thoState assess
' ment low, this tax will not pay the interest.,
L which is now due for a number of years. The
s bondholders of Tennessee proposed to Gov.
's Young, some weeks ago, to have the State
It debt adjusted or sealed at the rat.e or s; cents
k on the dollar; and the present extra session
of the Legislature is called by the Governor
to consider this proposition.
It would seem to be a most equitable one.
' Tennessee is a rich State and could hear a far
.C heavier assessment than that it now has. Its
debt is undoubtedly valid, was created almost
wholly in ante-bellum days and was not the
e result of Radical fraud, theft and spollation.
The interest is only six per cent, so that if the
scaling is done, it will practically reduce the
y interest to three and one-half per cent on a
legally incurred debt--loss than that paid by
0 any other State in the Union. The public
opinion of Tennessoe and a large majority of
the papers of that State appear to favor this
sixty cents adjustment.
a 'One Judge McKinnon, of New York, how
ever, has raised up a strong opposition to this
settlement. Judge McKinnon claims that
f the rate of interest-six per cent-is too
I high, and proposes to have it reduced. He
3 cites in support of this practice the example
of England in the beginning of the ligh
3 toenth century, when the interest on the
I English national debt was reduced from six
per cent to three per cent; he does not see why
this should not be done as well in Tennessee.
It has also been shown, by opponents of the
adjustment, that even were Tennessee to
scale her debt it would require the taxes to be
raised to seven mills on the dollar in order to
pay interest. This fact will develop the great
est opposition to the adjustment, as the
farmers of the State are naturally opposed to
any increase of taxation.
It is probable, however, that the adjusters
are in a majority over the absolute repudia
tionists. The bondholders on their part are
very anxious to secure this adjustment, and
are more than satisfied with the terms; in
deed, the terms are their own.
It is to be hoped that the Tennessee Legis
lature will adopt them, since the fact that
some Southern States are still deferring
the payments of interest on their State debt
is preventing us from securing that capital
from Europe that we could now so easily se
cure, if the capitalists of that countt, felt
convinced, as we want to convince them, that
an investment in a genuine Southern enter
prise means that they shall be honestly paid
their interest. Any act that savors of repu
diation in any Southern States must affect all
its sister States equally disastrously.
The necessity for a national levee system
was never better illustrated than in the con- 1
dition of affairs now existing in one of the 1
levee districts of the State of Mississippi, em- I
bracing the counties of Bolivar, Washington,
Issgquena and Sharkey. The people of this I
district have been taxed sinee the war for 4
wee purposes as no other peoplb were ever

A strange vote was that in (Congress, the
k other day, on a motion made by Mr. Mills, of
STexas, to suspend the rules and adopt a reso
a lution Instructing the (mrnmlttee on Ways
and Means to revise the tariff, so as to make
it purely a tariff for revenue. This motion
was defeated by a vote of 76 nays to 6c yeas,
a largo number of Demuocrats voting in the
a negative.
The O'urimr-.Journel hauls up those D)emo
' crats who voted in the negative, and calls
their attention to one of the main planks of
the National DeiLocratic platform, which d,'
Sclares:
"We denouncethe present tarlif, levied upon
nearly four thousand articles, as a master
r piece of injustice, inequality and false pre
teense, which yields a dwindling and not a
t yearly rising revenue, and has Impoverished
many industries to subsialze a few. It pro
3 b.ilts imports that might purchase the pro
ducts of American labor; it has degraded
American commerce from the first to an in
ferior rank upon the htigh seas; it has cut
down the values of American manufactures
L at home and abroad; it has depleted the re
turns of American agriculture, an industry
followed by half of our people; it costs the
people five times more than it produces to the
treasury, obstructs the process of production
and wastes the fruits of labor; it promotes
frauds, fosters smuggling, enriches dishonest
officials and bankrupts honest merchants.
We demand that all custom-house taxation
shall be only for revenue."
Some of the papers seem to think that this
vote does not indicate opposition to tariff re
form, but simply that Mr. Mill's motion was
somewhat premature. We have been prom
ised all along that at the regular session a
tariff reform bill would be one of the very
first measures brought before Congress, and
that it would be adopted by a large majority.
This defeat of such a measure therefore nat
urally causes surprise.
Mr. Dibrell's income tax act will be prob
ably passed by Congress. There is a grow
ing feeling that the poorer classes are taxed
too much and the millionaires too litte; and
it is held that no tax can be more easily
borne than this, because it falls on those to
whom it is no burden. The great objection to
itis, that it acts as a sort of incentiveto perjury
and that the government is invariably cheat
ed out of a large portion of this tax. In
this connection the papers are calling atten
tion to the strictness and accuracy with
which Germany collects a similar tax.
Germany is so accurate and searching in this
matter that very few persons escape. The
intention of the German law is that every
class of income shall pay according to its
character, and that no class shall escape
the cognizance of the revenue officers. In
some places, for instance, where it is a
question of assessing the income of a for
eigner, and where it is difficult for the i
officials to obtain accurate information there- I
on, they estimate his income by his outgo, I
and as they cannot tax what he gets, tax
what he spends. The precautions taken by
the German government extend not only to
the living, but the dead, and when a man who
pretends to have a small income dies, leaving
a large property, the State interferes, ex
amines his estate and stops all legacies in
transitu until the back income taxes due are
It is hardly probable that such arbitrary
measures will euceeed in a repub=icn gov
