State," for the following reasons:
1st. It is unconstitutional, unjust, tin
democratic, unwise and inexpedient.
2d. In our opinion the manifest object
of this Act is to transfer the railroad
debt to the shoulders of the people, and
to Procure the dismissal of the su t
iiL'ainst the railroads, which is now
pending in the Supreme Court of the
United Mates.
3rd. The State of Teiinosseo never
owed a dollar of the railroad debt and
oiicht not to pav it. The statute ex
prcssly provided that the railroads were
to pay the interest as it loll due and tne
principal at maturity This was the
innsoii wny the internal improvement
system was so pi .pillar before the war
At that tune no other doctrine was iieard
Kut now we are told that the State ought
to pay the debts ol solvent roads be
cause they have turned over to the
Compt roller about fil'teen million dollars
in hoods ami coupons of insolvent com
panies, which cost the solvent roads
about three million dollars in L'ood
I iiiohfV. 'I hen mi'rlit. he umno Pore, in
tlii-i argiina iit if the Slate had ever been
liable lor the debts of insolvent eompn
fiic.-t. This is the turning point. If the
Stale was not liable for the payment of
the bonds of insolvent companies it was
no benefit to the State for the solvent
roads to get them uti and turn them
over to the Comptroller. 'I he statute
expressly declared that the bonds issued
to railroad companies should con.vlitute
liens upon the roads to which they were
i.-.-iud, und that the roads should pav
a dodge that has been worked in the
Northern States until it was exposed
and exploded, and now tho sharpers
are getting in their work in some of the
Southern States. J he trick was ex
plained confidentially, by a party who
was "in the ring, to work in this wise:
lou see, said he, "this is the way
it is done. A few of us, say hve or ten,
organize a company, und constitute our
selves the olliecrs und directors. Then
before we lieirin to accept risks, each
one of us hunts up two or three young
men w hom we know are sure to be mar
ried in a month or two, uud by paying
them a small per cent of the proceeds
of the policy, obtain their permission to
place several thousand dollars marriage
insurance ou them uud their intended
wives. Wheu we have secured the
amount of insurance wo desire to have
in our own favor, we open our books
and commence to take risks, placing
our own risks in at once, and they ure
sure to be among the first to marry. VI
course the agreement is that there ure
no assessments to be issued until one
year has elapsed from the opening of
the books, and then the assessments are
to be issued and the claims to be paid in
the order in which the insured got mar
ried, and on each claim there is to be
paid as many dollars as the assessment
brings, not to exceed the face of the
policy. Now, you see thut, our owu
risks being among the first to marry,
I hey are the ones that will be assessed
first : and as very few will forfeit on
the first assessment, our claims are sure
lobe paid in full. lint after ours are
paid, we will rush out the assessments
bv the hundred ; this will cause nearly
all to forfeit, and the claims to be paid
will not realize ten cents on the dollar.

ted. Hut what about the liability of
the insolvent companies for the bonds
issued to them' These bonds were a
lien upon the insolvent roads, and noth
ing could relievo the roads of the lieu
but tho payment of the bonds. Have
they ever been paid? No. What has
become ot the insolvent roads f Ihey
are in the hands of solvent companies
flow (lul these solvent companies get
them? They claim to have bought
them from the State. Sut did the Suite
sell eleven insolvent roads? No. It
uerely sold her interest in them. What
interest did she have? She had no pe
cuniury interest except iu so far as she
had paid interest for them on their
bonds, uud this she had done to a large
amount What did the State's interest
bring? It brought SO.Ii'.IX.OOO iu illegal
and greatly depreciated bonds and cou
pons, which cost the solvent roads about
SU'oO.OOU. After this sale took place
how were the bidders of the bonds of
insolvent roads 1 1 get interest upon their
bonds f the statute expressly provided
that the purchasers of the State's inter
est were to lake the roads subject to the
lien of these bonds. The sale ot the
Sale's interest was not intended to re
lieve the insolvent roads of any of their
liabilities. Hut these roads have passed
into the hands of solvent companies?
Yes. When tho solvent companies
bought the State's interest they took
possccsion of the roads aud then bought
up a large amount ol the bonds that
were a lien upon them. These bonds
have been turned over to the comptrol
ler for cancellation, and the solvent com
panies have made a magnificent specula
tion. They got the Stale's interest in
eleven insolvent roads for about $1,250,
000 in good money, and for about three
million dollars more they got up about
fil'teen million dollars iu bonds that were
a lieu on these roads, while the roads
theimelvcs are worth about twelve; mil
lion dollars. It fully appears, therefore,
that if the suit in the Supreme Court of
the I uitcil Mates is decided in lavor of
tho bondholders, the solvent railroad
companies will have no valid claim
against the Statu for the value of the
bonds cancelled by the Comptroller, be
cause they have possession of the roads
that these bonds were a lien upon, and
because the Slate never was under any
obligation to pav the debts nf railroads.

(III. Another reason why wc protest
against the passage ol the bill ih because
the people are unable to bear the burden
it places upon them. The balance of
trade is always against au exclusively
agricultural Slalj. Money Hows from
agricultural into mnnul'ucturimr States
us naturally asj.be waters of the Missis
sippi How down into the gull. Ihe his
tory of the world shows that there are
only two ways by which an agricultural
Stale can keep the amount ot currency
it ought to have One is to make a lo
cal currency, as irgtnia did in colonial
times ; and the other is to encourage
and develop manufactures, under the
fostering inlliieiico of a protective
tnrill, as franco did by tho advice ol
Colbert. Tennessee is now an almost
exclusively agricultural State and the
balance ol trade is against her. Our
cities, towns ami villages nro lilted with
goods that were manufactured iu New
England and old England. This trade
system is a curse. It steadily decreases
tlie quantity ot our currency and bene
(its no one hut the trader, transporter
nml money lender. Instead id having
fifteen million dollars of currency, which
is about tlio amount wo need, we have
only about three or four million, aud to
take eight ha nil red thousand era mil
lion away from us every year to pay the
intercut required by this Act will be
ruinous. It will crush the agricultural
class and prevent tho development of
ninnulactures And even it it were the
just debt of the State the people could
not pay it. John K. Iseasmc
Let us remember that there can be
uo development, no true education,
where there is no self-activity : ami
that we must never do for a child what
ho can within a reasonable time ami

this amount Such au assessment will
cause hut lew to forfeit ; but when they
get one hundred assessments at one
time, they will at once drop the whole
business." l'ut beforo they do this, we
will have gotten the cream, and theu
we do not cure how soon they forfeit.
Now, all this can be done in less than
two vears. and for live to ten men to
band together without capital or risking
a single cent, and clear 10,000 apiece
in less than two years, is not so bad.
Besides this, we will have all the mem
bership fees to defray expenses and pay
ourselves handsome salaries with."
hot those who wish to be swindled
out of their money, patronize this busi
ness. It is a game between the olficers
and outsiders, in which the former hold
all the winning cards.
A Rumsellor's Story.
A man named Stacy, the owner of a
splendid drinking saloon iu New York,
signed tlie pledge lately and closed his
house. Hearing that a party ot lads
had formed themselves into a temper
ance society, he went to them nnd gave
them his experience as a rumsellcr. We
repeat some of his recollections:
" I sold liquor," said Mr. Stacy, "for
eleven years long enough lor me to sec
the beginning and end of its ellects. I
have seen a man take his first glass of
liquor in my place, and afterward fill
the grave of a suicide. I huvo seen
man after man, weulthy and educated,
come into my saloon who cannot now
buy his dinner. I can recall twenty
customers worth from one hundred
thousand to live hundred thousand dol
lars who are now without money, place
or friends."
lie warned hoys against entering sa
loons on any pretext He stated that
he had seen many a young fellow, mem
ber of a temperance society, come iu
with a friend and wait while he drank
"No, no," he would say, "I never touch
it. Thanks all the same." Presently,
rather than seem churlish, he would
take a glass of cider or harmless lemon
ade. "The lemonade was nothing,"
said the rumsellcr, "but I knew how it
would end The only safety, boys, for
any man, no matter bow strong his res
olution, is outside the door ol the sa
loon." Profanity is a mark of low breeding.
