France. Comments OF the New YOrk
Post ON Continuation.

The news Of peace between Germany
and France will be, for many reasons,
the most welcome that the United States
could receive from Europe. The gener-
al law, that whatever impairs the pros
perity Of one nation Injuries all, has been
made more obvious and more potent
thar ever, by the great growth Of trade
and intercourse, in late years, binding
all ChristendOm together. But apart
from this, there are special reasons why
such a peace viii give a powerful i'm
pulse TO our Owl prosperity.
The cotton trade, the largest element
in our commerce, is seriously depressed
by the suspension Of industry in France,
and the disturbance Of the whole Euro
pean market for cloths. II is sure to
revive rapidly when peace comes The
same may be said, in some degree, Of
the export trade. Investments by for
eigners in III bonds, too, have been
checked by the war not only because
war always disturbs confidence, but be
cause the demands OF belligerents for
money make IL dearer; and still more
because the capital out Of which such
investments are made is the savings OF
the wOrkingmen, and in the chaos Of
war they save nothing. Every day Of
war in Europe, therefore, is an injury
in the end, to the credit OF the United
States, and limits the future supply Of
capital for the development Of n re-
sources.
It is only reasonable, then, to expect,
that when the peace now earnestly de-
sired by both the contending nations is
established, the export trade OF this
country will be at Once increased the
business of great cities will become
more active; all our railroads and trans
portation companies will add to their
traffic; our national stock will gain in
credit ; and some relief will be given to
the hesitation and anxiety which have
| so long characterized business in nearly
all its branches. It is too 500 to form
any judgment IS to the extent to which
this relief will go; nor is it possible to
determine how far the depressing infu-
ences of u l~uctuating currency and
impolitic tax-system may counteract it.
But it is impossible TO doubt hat bust
ness men, as a whole, will enter upon
the active work of a coming season with
greater cheerfulness than they have ex-
perieneed for many months, il peace be
concluded at once between Germany and
France.

By supporting commissioner Pleasan-
ton in his recommendation that the in
come tax be totally repealed, General
Grant is responding nobly to popular
sentiment and acting up TO the declara-
ton that he would have no policy to
urge against the will of the people. This
action on his part has had little less than
a magnetic influence on the country,
and gives him strength at a moment
when it was needed for the success OF
his administration. Commissioner Pleas
anton aptly ch-aracterizes the OdiOus ma
ture Of the tax, sound policy having al
ready demonstrated the wisdom of an
early and radical reduction Of the taxes
for the sake Of the business interests and
political success. In this respect has
General Grant proved that he is a prac-
teal statesman and a shreWed head Of O
great party on whose success depend the
peace and prosperity Of the country
Though there is a degree Of reluctance
on the part of Congress to act in OppO-
sition to the recommendations of Secre-
tary Boutwell,, there is q strong prOba'
bflity that the almost universal wish
will not again be disappointed, and that
the odious tax will be swept away. Then
should follow Civil Service REFORM
These two measures woven into that fol
the rigid, honest and economical enforce
ment OF laws for the collection and dis.
bursement Of the public moneys, would
constitute 8 policy on which the Admin.
istration could stand against any anC
every assault of Its enemies,

DOUBLE EXECUTION ~ MISSOURI
On the 9th ult., at POtOSi,s mo, Jolly
and Armstrong, the muTderers of the
Lepine family, paid the penalty o. their
frightful crime on the scaffOld. The de-
tails Of the murder, show it to be one Of
the most horrible on recOrd-a family
butchered in a ann the most revolt
ing. The execution was public. Wo-
men and children were present to
witness tie terrible sight Of two beings
launched into eternity. The prisoners
made no public confession oftheir guilt
to the priests they may have done so
but the evidence against them was so
| conclusive that not a doubt remains but
that their punishment was most justly
merited.

Acase has Just come up in the Supreme
Court involving the validity Of extend
ing the terms OF county auditors. Allen
NJ. Neal was elected auditor Of Marion
county, last fall, under the law Of 1869,
but the clerk of the court refused to
issue q certificate Of election on the
ground that under a law passed in 1870
the auditor SHOULD hold over from March,
1871, to November, 1871, and that the
election of county auditor should take
place in October, 1871, and not in Octo-
Der, 1870. Mr.. Neal, with his attorney,
Mr.. A. F. Perry, asks for a peremptory
mandsmus compelling the clerk TO issue
a certificate, and Attorney General Pond
resists the application. Fourteen conn
ties elected auditors last fall.

It is gratifying to note that the legisla-
tors Of Kentucky are arousing to the
duty and necessity Of taking measures
against the murderous Ku klux. A
few DAYS since a bill was introduced into
the General Assembly, having direct
reference TO the suppression OF these
maraudsrs, which, if passed, 1t is be-
lieved, will effect the object. So long as
the depredatiOns Of these seoundreIs
were confined to robbing, whipping and
numbering the negroes in the interior,
the matter was not thought especially
worthy of attention, but the license thu
afforded having emboldened the vaga-
bonds to carry their Outrages up { the
very outskirts Of the capital Of the State,
il is probable the authorities may be
induced to do tardy justice by hanging
a few of the Vandals.
