BILE in some Of the issues The decline in gold in
the previous week rendered the market unsettled at
the opening but the scarcity OF bonds and the pur
chases by the Treasury soon obvated the feeling
which this fact produced, especially the tendency
OF gold was also to higher figures The investment
demand ran largely on the six per cent currencie
and the ten-fOrtes, which from the rapid advance in
hve-twenties have attracted general attention
and came quite largely from savings banks and other
banking and trust institutions TO whom 1t was urged
that the next Congress will doubtless do something
towards reduction OF the national debt The funded
debt at this time amounts in round numbers to g. 60
000 or this sum the greater part N 600 600 BEARS

The right to pay Off the principal has already ma

were 'oT from the highest figures of the week, In
consequence Of the contradictory and distracting
reports Of financial matters in Europe, where United
States securities were variOusly quoted. With the
strength in gold and the real scarcity OF bonds in the
home market prices recovered and closed 1rm.n

replied that they were God, aud besides them
selves there was none other. After some other
conversation, Mr.. Peters was struck two or three
times with small cane or switch, inficting no
injury however. Exacting promise from Mr..
Peters to leave in one week, the party left. we
obtained the above statement from Mr.. and
Mrs Peters in person, whom we called to
see early Wednesday morning. They spoke
in rather high terms of the leader of the
party, and expressed the apprehension that but
FOR him something serious would probably have
occurred. They declined to tell us all that hap
pened. Mr.. Peters has been here but short
time and so far as we can learn, has been
very quiet inoffensive man. Many of our citl-
zens did not know that such being was in
existence until Wednesday morning, and upon
diligent inquiry if he has been guilty of any
crime, we have not been made aware of it."

KU. .KLUX AGAIN.
Rnid UDon Lehnnon, Tennessee.

Raid Upon Lebanon, tennessee
The Lebanon (Tennessee) Herald (ConserVa-
tive says:-"Our usually quiet city, was thrown
into some excitement about o'clock on Inurs-
day night, by the sudden and unexpected ap-
pearance on our streets of some forty or hltS
Ku-Klux, or disguised men. They were all well
mounted and armed. They entered the city on
the South side, halted at several houses, got
water, conversed with several of our citizens
who happened to be up at that late hour, but
being masked, and changing their voices,
none of them were recognized. They ac-
costed several colored men, questioned them
about what they had been doing, examined their
persons to see if they were armed, and then
passed on. They went to the house of Arch
Ward, a colored barber, and took from him a
pistol They then proceeded to the residence
of Mr.. Peters and wife, who are engaged in
teaching the colored schools in this place, and
knocked at the door. Mr.. Peters opened the
door and asked what they wanted. They said
thev wished to see the man of the house. Mr..
Peters presented himself, when they asked him
what he was doing there. Mrs Peters responded
that she and her husband were engaged in teach
ing school They asked what they were teaching
their scholars? Mrs. Peters replied that they
were teaching them to read and write, and

Relations of Turkey and Euypt-ImperiaI
Letter to the VicerOy.

By the AnglO-Americdn Gable.
LONDON, Aug. 30.-Advices to hand in this
city from Constantinople state that although the
late official report of the Viceroy of Egypt on
the condition of affairs in the territory and his
relations to the Porte generally, has been found
satisfactory to the Sultan, rumors in the Turkish
capital represent his Majesty as being resolved
either to crush out at once any attempt which
may be made towards independence by the
Viceroy or bring matters to direct issue in a
peaceful manner.
The Grand Vizier of the Sultan will despatch
another letter to his Highness the Viceroy next
Tuesday, demanding that both the land and sea
forces of Egypt be kept within the limits de-
scribed in the imperial firman of the year 1871;
that regular quarterly ludget of finance be
submitted to the Porte Cabinet; forbdding any
future imposition or levying of taxes by the
Viceroy or his holding direct communication
with any foreign government.
