have disappeared are dead, are iusolyent, take
the benefit of stay laws aud statutes Of Limitation,
or refuse 10 pay on the naked principle of repu-
diation. But the one answer that continually
con es back to the renewal of these demands Is,
that the debt was confsCated by the Confederate
States Government, paid to the Receiver of the
Coniederacy in the currency of the realm of that
day, and that the debtor sets this up as a bar TO
any other payment. Our Courts would, OF
course, ignore any voluntary payment made to
the Confederate States, under their conhsca-
tion laws, but If the payment we're forced.
a question might be made as to the pre-
sent liability of the debsor, and in either case
it would lead TO much litigation. 1t seems
to US that the Legislatures OF States recently in
rebellion should have annulled by law all pro-
ceedings under their conhscation acts and de-
Cared all debts of this class binding and unim-
paired by payment to Confederate receiver.
AS an evidence of good faith and return TO sound
principles of justice and right, which would aid
them in their efforts at restoration, these States
should discourage any attempts upon the part
OF their citizene to benefit by the accidents or
chances OF the war. Instead OF passing such
acts az the proposed Virginia stay law, in which
nonresident creditors are not only prevented
from enforcing their demands, but are expressly
denied the security of having them Hen on the
debtors property, they should give every facility
to the nonresident whatever they may decide
( to do among themselves.
1t is monstrous that they should attain success
in any ends which they amed at In bringing on
this war; and one of their aims certainly was to
avoid payment of their enormous debt to the
North. II the Southern States fail to do justice
in this matter, the duty OF protecting Northern
creditors will devolve upon Congress- and the
South. gaming nothing by her stay laws will
Suffer the odium of an attempt at reputation,
and see The ruin of her credit at a lime when
she stands most in need of indulgence, and is
most desirous to regain commercial facilities.

The indebtedness of the South.

From The Times.
We have recently made reference to the
debts due by the South to the North, and the
prospects of collecting them. The subject is
one of interest to both sections, owing to the
vast amount at stake, and the peculiar situa
tion and position OF the parties. In the early
part OF 1861, while postal communication was
uninterrupted and business relations were
still maintained with most If not all of the
Southern States our merchants attempted to
save themselves from threatened losses by
sending their claims out for collection. The
sudden outbreak of actual hostilities obliged
the holders to leave their notes, bills, and evil
denceso OF debt in the hands OF Southern attor-
news and agents, and from that time until the
strife enaed no information could be obtained
in regard to them. Now, when the reign OF
law and order has succeeded the anarchy
of rebellion, the losers are patiently
nut earnestly solicitors to learn the fate OF their
claims, and TO understand their present status as
creditors. Without pressing demands, general
inquiry concerning them has been made, result
ing Notwithstanding some notable eTcephons,
in barren prospects and meagre returns. Debtors

Emigration and the Destination of the
Emigration.
From the Herald.

IRON We Lfef0tu
We published some time ago a list of the num-
Der of emigrants from Europe who arrived here
from the lst OF January to the Slst OF October,
1865. and we gave. as correctly as could be as
CerCaned, the different parts OF the country to
which they betook themselves upon their ar
rival. or course, in many instances, emigrants
may have changed the point OF final destination
upon which they originally fixed their minds,
but in the main the statement was undoubtedly
accurate. Since the close of the war the atten-
tion of emigrants has been directed very consid-
erably towards the Southern States, where favor
able opportunities OF leasing and culuvating to
advantage plantations and iarm lands are now
presented. We append a list Of arrivals from
Europe between The LIST OF November and the
3lst OF December of the past year, and the in-
tended destination OF the emigrants, which Will
show that foreign labor, industry, and capital
are already beginning TO turn, in increased
ratio, towards the South. The number Of emf
grants who arrived here within these two
months was 3S,357, and were dispersed as fol-

have q deep interest in the recognition OF the
blacks as entitled TO fall the rights OF ireemen;
but our pecuniary interest in It is as nothing ito
that OF the South
OF course, We DO not pretend to say, nor even
aspire TO know, precisely on what basis the
Southern States win be restored TO all their tor
mer rights and privileges; but we are confident
that the work will be not only seasonably done
but well DONE Every interest and everv section
imperativelY requires a restoration of fraternity
and lasting peace and every condition of that
restoration whereon the majority in Congress is
likely TO insist win be found as essential and as
benefcent to the South as to the North.

1t will be seen from this table that emig ration
is tending towards the former slave States of
Missouri, Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, Ten
nessee, and the Carolinas-a large number going
to Tennessee, South Carolina, and Virginia, tnan
to Vermont or New Hampshire.

II turns out to be too true. The bill creating

Stewards hopes of peace and tranquility
IN st. Domingo under General Bacz as
President appear to have been i'll founded.
Another revolution-the second this year-has
disrupted that government. and Is rapidly lead
ing to . war between HayH and St. Domingo.
When Gefrard, last year, with the foreign aid
rendered by the British man-of-war Bulldog,
had suppressed the rebellion Of Salnave, that
redoubtable warrior was permitted-at British
instigation, IL Is said--to escape 10 St Domingo,
in order that he might stir up rebellion there.
Baez succeeded in suppressing, capturing and
kicking Salnave out of tho island; but the
work begun by the rebel Is now eliminating in
the deposing Of Bacz. We shall doubtless
never have peace in the West Indian and South
and Central American republics until the power
Of the United States Is manifested in such q
way as TO practically forbid British and other
