Knoxville surely needs public library and
reading room. Who ever heard of a city with
out its public library? Atlanta Savannah
Nashville and all such towns have libraries and
yet the great city of Knoxville has none Our
shame be upon u.s. A stranger visits our city
and he finds no public place where he may sit
down and spend pleasant hour in reading
There is no place where young men may gath
er after supper and find collection of the latest
hence thew go off I to the drinking Saloon What
wonder The mind unimployed must have
amusement. A public library would be a
great moral agent. The numerous reasons why
Knoxville should have public library and a
library association we will not at present go into
the details of discussing
We learn that the subject is being discussed
to some. extent and hope the result may be IA
vorable. khE A

The Ch,rlottee IN. Co Democrat denounces
Geo. p Powell s. Co., as swndlers and scoun-
drels, and was taken to task about it by the
Patriot published at Greensboro, in the same
State, which, in its concluding paragraph on
the subject, says: They are not swindlers,
but one of the most upright honest and reliable
business firms we have ever dealt with
The experience of the Patriot is Identical
with ours and we presume is that of a majority
of newspaper publishers, South, espeeia ally.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Nov. IS 1871.
The trade in produce is yet without animation
There is some enquiry about corn. The i'm
preston prevailing in the South that East Ten
nessee crops failed, purchasers are not looking
in this direction for supplies We must correct
this mistake; and the best means of accom-
plshing this is to put our supplies-Corn, Oats,
Hay, Hogs Pork, Lard, Beef, &c.-on the mar
ket. We have large surplus, especially of
Corn, and that of the best quality. We must
sell, and why not sell at once? Any advance
in price that may be realized next spring or

Financial.

Money has been a little more easy
this week, but still with AL active de-
mand, which sustalns the rates with
out producing any advance. The large
production Of the precious metals goes
far to sustain the supply of money by
furnishing credits ut the East and
abroad. The silver product Is par
ticularly large, and tho export this
year from Nevada, mostly OH San
Francisco account. will reach nearly
$40, 600. 600, and when rains shall have
brought out the full yield Of the Com
| stock mines tho product will greatly
increase. The money disturbance,
growing out Of the Chicago fire, Is sub
Siding. The money In the City Treas
ury, which accumulated to nearly
81, 200, 900, Is again flowing out, and
what money may be required for the
insurance assessments will be readily
met. There continues to be, for some
strange purpose, exaggeration. For in
stance, 1t has been publicly reported
that the Occidental lost $2l, 600 at Val
leio, when the whole risk was but
1000. There Is very little movement
in real estate, and, therefore, not
much demand for money In that direc-
ton. The supply Of bills Is apparently
equal to the demand for remittance,
and the rates are as follow: Coin drafts
on New York, "a per cent. premium;
Ccurreucy drafts, liz per cent premi-
um on gold; telegraphs, ~; bank rate
on London Is 49d. at 60 days; gold
bullion at SG09s65; silver, impaired,
at par; refined silver, 1908 per cent.
