THE effect of Democratic victory
upon the national credit and finances is
sometimes discussed by bankers and
brokers' over their lunch, but in gen.
eral it is difficult to make political
capital out of predictions or apprehen-
sions. An amusing incident occurred
down townsyesterday. While promi-
nent banker was in his Office, an ex-
cited German entered and Immediately
opened conversation by presenting
abruptly his views on politics, declaring
that he was about to sell ont his gov
eminent bonds, for if the Democrats
should get into power they would i'm
mediately repudiate the obligations
of the country, and pay off the bonds,
principal and interest in curren-
cy, instead of gold, as had been stipu-
lated. The banker, Republican, calmly
listened to his excited customers argu-
ment, and then said: by the way, do
you know what United States bonds
sell for the most money!" mo-" said
the German. "Well, then. look here, %
said the banker, exhibiting price-hst
of the United States Government
bonds, and pointing to the highest bond
with one exception). 1t proved to be

ately took his leave. with new ideas on
the subject of bonds and the credit of

THE DANGER OF WAR IN EUROPE

London Correspondence Of the New York
Times.
On the Continent the SKY is dark and
lowering, and il is impossible not TO feel
that a storm is brewing, yet nobody can
tell in which direction to look for the first
fash. There are no distinct quarrels ready
for fighting about, but the relations of sew
ersl important States exhibit just the sort
of feverish irritation which may at any
moment precipiiate a collision. Il may be
assumed that France and Germany are
bound To fight some day; but France,
though busy with military prepare
tions, Of which EVERY traveller through
the country. brings over startling ac-
counts, is not yet ready for war; and on
the other hand, il is difficult to see what
more it can be possible for the Germans to
get out Of another conquest. There can be
no dOubt, however, that Germany is just
now in rather an explosive condition. The
people are grOaning bitterly under the
strain 10 which they have been subjected,
and which has still to be continued in or
der to maintain the enormous armament,
which is deemed necessary as check upon
reprisals by Frame. At this moment Ger
many is probably the strongest power in
Europe; but the question is how long il can
maintain itself in this position. IL is at
the highest point now, but the cost Of
this supremacy is fearfully exhauSting.
Every year the country becomes less
capable Of enduring the drains upon
it in men and money, and every
year, while Germany is thus at
the best only barely holding its
ground, other powers are growing rapidly
in strength and confidence. Hence the
idea which is supposed to have taken pos
session Of Bismarck, that the policy Of
Germany should be to strike while it is az
the top Of its strength, and while other
countries are weaker, and thus to obtain an
opportunity of lesSening its military eX-
penseS by palalyZing its chief opponents
while it still has power to do so. It must
be remembered that it is not merely France
by itself that the Germans have to reckon
with in the future, but also the Papacy and
the Czar-twO very formidable opponents,
who would each be pretty sure to do all in
their power to help France against the
power which has already defied the one, and
is suspected of a similar intention in re-
gard to the other. The European situation,
therefore, comes pretty much to this-that
Germany, despairing OF becoming any
stronger, and more than doubling its abil-
ity to maintain its strength at its present
standard, would be glad of an opportunity
of trying TO cripple its antagonists at once
in such way as to secure for itself some
amount of ease and peace for good while
to come. Whether this opportunity will
be found, nobody can say; but there can at
least be little doubt that Germany is bent
on creating an opportunity if it can, and
that it will avail itself of any that offers. 1t
is no wonder, then, that with such a state
Of things on the continent, there should be
doubt and perturbation IN the financial
world. Almost anything may happen be-

A RADICAL MURDERER NOMINATED
FOR CONGRESS

Montgomery Ala, Correspondents Of the New
York Times.
1t is not only thieves and liars, how
ever, who disgrace the Republican par
ty IN Alabama. The debauehed and
interruptions politicians who manipu-
late conventions have nominated as
Congressional Representatives from
the Third District w. H. Belts, who is
known TO have killed several men. His
first murder was committed in 1871, at
Pensacola, where he shot man named
Brown, who was his fellow-soldier. In
Montgomery, some time afterward, be
had quarrel with man named Perry,
and without a word of warning shot
him through the thigh. The leg was
amputated, and the unfortunate
man now goes through the
streets on cruches. For this crime
Belts was indicted in the Crimi-
nal Court. This indictment was pend
ing when the war closed, and az that
time Gov. Patton issued proclama-
ton releasing all prisoners charged
with crimes less than willful murder.
Under this Belts escaped. At Column
bus, Ga, in 1864, during the progress
of bread riot, he is said to have
killed two men. An acquaintance Of
his, named Milton Malone, makes the
charge. In the spring of 1866, at
West Point, Ga, he shot and killed the
Marshal of the place. For this he was
tried, but acquitted on the ground that
he done the killing IN self-defense.
All the facts enumerated are common
town talk in Montgomery, and must
have been known to the convention
that nominated Belts. They aIe also
known to the leaders of the so-called
Republican party in Alabama, and yet
they warmly advocate his election.

THE Sparta IIlde1 has the following
with regard to the young Ohiau whose
mill was accidentally burned in White
county, and who was referred to by
Maynard, in his late speech here, as
having been driven from the State:
4 letter, just received from Mr.. o.
d. Fish. who is now at Norwllk, Ohio,
contains the following: Il received a
letter yesterday from nav father, stating
that Maynard has made some state
n. ents in regard TO my leaving White
county, which are entirely false.
I never had any such thought, at any
time, much less have I spoken any
such thing to any one. I never spoke
a half dozen words to him in my life,
and never met him until the morning
we left McMinnville.
Is there a man IN White county who
has So little regard for the good name
OF the people among whom he lives as

maliciously siandered them: God
knows, we are no better than we should
be. but we are not house-burners and

IT is easy for Harrison, Maynard,
Jones and Campbell. TO dodge Civil
Rights, when they know their party
will pass the bill, schools, hotels, thea
tres, cemeteries and all. Gil il Rights
schools would be bad enough, but there
lies worse beyond. In many Northern
free schools, the two sexes are educated
together. Add this Northern feature
to Civil Rights, and our daughters viii
be forced into companionship on the
school bench with the coming man

gress has exactly the same power to
abolish sex as to abolish race. 1t has
the same right to regulate the social
relations of the two sexes as those Of
the two races-no more nor less.
