CHICAGO, March 22.-The prevailing
feeling in this money market is now
really healthy, and as the active open.
ing Of the spring trade in all depart
ments Of commerce viii doubtless occur
before many days elapse, no particular
uneasiness is felt in regard 10 the pres
ent or immediate future. Money con-
tinues remarkably comfortable, and al
most all classes of borrowers are accom-
modated as freely as they could desire.
Choice paper is now discounted readily,
and the whole tendency Of the loan
market is fully as satisfactory and prom
ising as at the opening Of the month.

CHRISTIAN CHARITY.

Our neighbor, the Avalanche, finds
himself on the wrong side in the little
dispute with US concerning the Metho-
disis, and in order TO make his side q
Iiule better be endsaYors to dodge the
issue or shift the discussion to other
ground. We viii not permit it. The
issue between Us is simply this He
charges, BY inference, that the rancor
aud bitterness heretofore existing be-
tween the two branches Of the Methodist
Church. North ahd South, was due as
much 70 2 spirit Of intolerance on the
part Of the church South as North
which Issue NE joined with him, and
argued that the Southern Methodists had
strictly adhered to the plan Of separa.
ton which vas Gmieably agreed to
between the parties in 1874, and
that all the aggression and antago-
nism came from the other side. That
the Northern Methodists made a suit at
law necessary, which was carried to the
Supreme Court Of the United States, and
there decided in favor Of the South. That
they followed the invading army and
seized Southern Methodist churches and
other property, which they did not relin-
quish until the law compelled them; and
they nor hold Southern Methodist prop
eriy. That their members have prac-
ticed mob violence upon Southern Meth
odist preachers since the war, aud have
attempted assassiuatous. That they
have invaded and continue 10 invade the
territory Of the Southern Methodist
church for the avowed purpose Of
proselyting and disintegratiou. These
are our charges. plain and explicit,
which the Avalanche cannot apologize
for OF explain. That the editor Of that
Journal heard bullets whistle or thug
during the war has nothing to do with
the discussion or with Methodism, North
or South. II he wishes 10 retire from
the position OF antsgonism 10 the Meth
o6isis We certainly have no objection,
and We think be had better do it and
apologize.

rHr VIENNA ExPosIrIoN.

The worlds fair at vienna, Austria,
will commence in May next This great
International Exposition will attract
half a million Of strangers TO the Aus
trian capital from every portion Of civ
ilized Europe. 1t will excel in points Of
magnitude, grandeur and Importance
any exposition heretofore given in the
Old World. The delegates to the Vienna
Exposition from Memphis are Messrs'
Nathan Adams, Bronson Bayless, L. j..
Dupre and Sam Tate. Col. Dupre, as
Commissioner, win represent the United
States. State aud Chamber Of Commerce.
Col. Nathan Adams, the State OF Ten
uessee; Col. Sam Tate, the United States
and Mai. Bronson Bayless, the Chamber
Of Commerce Of Memphis. These
gentlemen will leave sometime in
May next: the Exposition will continue
omen until late in the fall. In view OF
the fact that Tennessee needs immigrants
10 cultivate her soil and develop her
great nalural resources, We suggest that
the Chamber Of Commerce authorize
the commissioners above named to pre-
pare pamphlet containing a map OF
Memphis and surrounding country, with
an elaborate statement Of the resources
ofWest Tennessee, and the inducements
this section of the State offers TO immi-
grants. Let this pamphlet be published
both in the French and German Ian
eaages. and be freely distributed at
Vienna by our representatives. The cost
of publishing this most important pam
INLET would not exceed five hundred dol
lars-a mere trile when the incalculable
advantages to be derived from circulat-
ing such document at the Vienna
Exposition are taken into consideration.
Each of the gentlemen above named are
interested in Memphis and West Ten
nessee they are among our most enter
prising citizens, and we have no doubt
thew would take pleasure in aiding the
Chamber Of Commerce in the work so
much to be desired. Five hundred dol
lars spent in this manner will bring
back its worth in labor, and that labor
vii develop our agricultural, meehanI-
csl and mineral resources a thousand
fold. Many OF the Northwestern States
have circulated in Europe and have had
printed in halfa dozen languages pamph-
let's containing statements that have
not failed 10 attract immigrants. This
is what Tennessee requires at present.
and we are certain the necessary amount
can be raised without the slightest trou-
bic. provided the Chamber of Commerce
starts the ball in motion. Let pam
phlet be issued containing map with
all the railroad diagrams and full and
accurate account Of the resources Of our
great State. Let this be printed both in
the French and German languages and
let il be distributed at Vienna by our
representative commissioners. The good
results are beyond the ken Of man, but
ali sensible men will at once see that
lncAlcuIable benefits are 10 be derived
