and money markets, and an enlarged in
crease in transportation, both by rail and
water
One immediate effect of peace would be
to open up the stock markets in London.
European and American stocks would
change hands, and it is thought the specie
which would form the basis for the trans
actions would, in great measure, come
from this country.
In reply to the prediction that peace
would result in taking from us large
amount of foreign capital sent here for
safety during the war, the Post says it fails
to find, on inquiry among bankers in New
York, that such capital to any large amount
ever came over.
On the whole, therefore, the Post con-
cludes that there is prospect of increased
activity in the general trade of the world
international as well as domestic, when
ever the two great nations now at war re.
turn to peaceful industry.

HOW PEACE WILL AFFECT THIS COUNTRY


The New York Post, in a careful article
on the effect peace in Europe viii have in
this country, states some facts worthy of
especial attention. If, says the article, the
indemnity of $4,000, 0O0, 900 which is de-
manded of France is to be paid in bonds of
the new French Government, to be issued
at once, the effect of such an immense issue
would be to unsettle the money markets
on the continent and in this country. 1t
is to be supposed, however, that the fnan-
cial agents of both governments will be
careful to guard against such consequences.
The resumption of specie payments in
France, it is thought, will not be long de-
layed after peace is declared. It seems to
be admitted that a very large stock of silks,
gloves and wines are on hand in the
French cities ready for shipment as soon
as safe transportation can be secured. The
sale of these stocks would bring specie to
France, and in measure relieve financial
embarrassment. This benefit would, to
certain extent, be neutralized and perhaps
even overbalanced By payments for bread
stuffs, for which there must be very
heavy demand, just as soon as supplies can
with safety be moved For many
months to come the demand for
our home products viii be very
great. In Rouen, Dieppe, Amiens,
Paris, and even as far South as Tours, great
distress prevails. In all the sections visit
ed by the armies great restitution prevails.

EAST rlENNEsssE ave- ZEE Ku-KLUx.


We wish we could succeed in impressiHg
UPON the minds of our friends in the North
the great injustice they are daily doing the
people of East Tennessee, by their indis-
eriminate application of the stories of Ku-
Klux outrages to this, as well as to the
other sections of the South. We invite
their attention to the fact that the Ku-
Klux hare reever appeared or committed a
single outrage in East Tennessee. While
other sections of the South have been more
or less subject to their internal, inhuman
outrages while, in some sections, they
have been indirectly encouraged by public
sentiment in their devilish work and
while, in other sections. where such public
sentiment, if not really in sympathy with
them, has, nevertheless, been of little aid
in compelling the officers of the law to ar
rest and prosecute them, East Tennessee
has been as free from their visits and the
effects of their organization as any part of
the North. Weasl that this discrimination
be made in our favor, because we believe it
is entirely owing to the fact that these vii
lians know public sentiment in this sec
ton would not tolerate their midnight
crimes, that we have been free from them.
We ask that this credit be given to East
Tennessee as an additional proof of the
deep, abiding, earnest patriotism of its
people, whose loyalty to the Government
has been attested SO repeatedly and unmis-
takably. We do not think we are asking
too much in making this request. We
fully realize the imputation such eutrages
cast upon the communities in which they
occur. We have often expressed the be-
lief that these outrages could be easily sup
pressed and reyenged, if the people in
whose midst they were perpetrated were
sincere friends of the Government, or
earnestly desired peace and order. 1t
is because of this conviction, and
because of the deep disgrace we
feel we would merit if soe tolerated them,
that we ask our friends of the Northern
press to give us the benefit Of these tactssin
their comments and publications about
Southern outrages.
There are thousands of people through
out the North who are looking to East
1SuACoccC dts buClI St11Q WlOSt
minds are daily poisoned against us by
these indiscriminate and wholesale charges.
For their sake and for ours, we think we
are entitled to all the credit due us as a
people for our firm, unfinching adherence
to the Government during the darkest
hours of the rebellion, and for our main
tenance of law and order through the try
ing scenes subsequent to the war.
We affirm most positively, and challenge
contradiction, that East Tennessee is now
as quiet and orderly as any section of the
country; that property and personal safe
ty are as secure here as anywhere, and that
the mass of the people are as friendly to
the Government, and as determined to
have the laws faithfully executed as against
all such offenders, as any in the land. We
think we are entitled to have these virtues
recognized, and hope our friends Of the
press North will not forget them.
