ALEXANDRA VIRGINIA.
THURSDAY, MAY 6.

The cable brings long synopsis OF Paris
letter to the London Times concerning the
probability of an early war between France and
Germany. According TO the Times correspop
dent there is a powerful party in Germany
which is determined upon crushing France, 10
anticipation of the chances that as soon as the
latter nation is ready there will otherwise be
an effort made to revenge the disasters of 1870
and II. The correspondent says:
"Politicaus from abroad, as we'll as those
claiming to be we'll informed at home, assert
that peace or war depends upon the approach
ipg meeting of the Car aud the German Em-
peror No one denies that powerful party 10
Germany, comprising the entire MILITARY ele.
ment, feels that the late treaty was too lenlent;
that the indemnify paid has already returned
to French Golfers; that the possession of Beltort
By France is dangerous to Germany; that France
is recognizing rapidly enough, and will soon
be able TO turoish formidable army 10 any al
lance with other nations; that Germany is 20
richer than before the war, the hDsDces and So
cal organization cannot loDg support the ex
pense of the present armaments, and she can
not disarm i'll the face Of France.
1.-The military party 10 Germany are COD
vineed that never was there moment more
propitious than the present to secure for their
country long era Of prosperity and peace.
War ought to be promptly uDd, rtaken. Ii is
necessary to march on Paris and take up po-
sition where new peace can be signed which
will take Belfort from Ftauce, limit her active
army aud exact ten milliarGs 10 twenty years
Paris could be attacked if France refused to
sign. All the Powers have confined the mse YES
to timid friendly representations with regard to
the Belgian notes, which only shows that to
finish with France DOW is duty TO Germany
and humanity. Europe will never be tranquil
while the bluuder Of a treaty which leaves
France ready to revive and re-enter the strug-
gle is unrecti6cd. What may be promptly exc
cuted at insigni6can, sacrifice, would TWO years
hence cost oceans OF blood. Russia must De
convinced Of this necessity.
The Times CORE spondent adds 1T would be
untrue to say that these arguments are accept
ed, even in Germany, outside of particular
party. 1t would be equally untrue to says that
these menaces are destined to be realized. The
diplomatic world, even in Germany, declares
she cannot fight again an enemy who declars
for peace Honest Germans scout the suppo-
sitioDs The Emperor has scrup!es, but the
party of imme slate action urge it as duty to
sink all considerations 10 order to save the
country. They insist that France be made to
accept reassuriog treaty if she will not tight.
Germany, 10 order to have the right to re-
proach France as the cause of uneaslncss, must
solemnly discaim the above theories The
Times, 10 its editorial columns, scouts the ap-
prehensions raised by the alarmists and the
alarmed In Paris.

A monting was bold on Tuoeday afternoon al
the Tobacco Exchange, in Richmond, 10 pur-
suance of call signed by number of the lead
ing bankers and merchants 10 that city, the
object of which, as expressed in the call, was
ITO determie what may be judicious'y done in
respect to the questions on the Currency and
the Tobacco and Spirit taxes" A series of
resolutions endorsing the National Exchequer
scheme were adopted, and the Chairman was
authorized to appoint delegation OF not more
than ten to represent Richmond 10 a Conven.
ton to take place at Cincinnati on the 25th of
October to consider questions relating to tobac-
CO and spirit taxes.
Mr.. J. Armstead Carter, of Loudoun coun-
ty, mem Der of the last House of Delegates, who
was present, gave his views, and was listened
to with close attention by all present. He said
that the first question to be considered is, us
our currency IN healthy condition p He was
ever willing to 'leave well enough alone, !"
but the converse of this proposition was true
iu regard to our currency, and being 80, it was
the duty Of the people and the Government
to make the currency well enough Some
say that they don't want to bliug the currency
back to specie basis, forgetting that it is al
ways on specie basis-gold being the stand
ard of value. Mr.. Carter then presented sta
tistcs to elucdate point afterwards made by
dition oil France There, he said, the National
credit, aud Individual credits are cooperating
with each other; here they are separate and
distinct and heuce it is that our paper cur
reDcy is Is per ct. below par, whilst that Of
France is nearly equal to specie. If the Ex
chequer were adopted tie results would be
ideulical with those attaiued In France aud
other European countries where similar insli
tutions have been loug since established. In
conclusion, Mr.. Carter said that he was not
one of those who are in the habit OF depreclat-
iug the iuaueoce of Virginia 10 times past
her sons had rendered sigoal service to the
country in bringing order out OF chaos; and
there was 20 reason why they should not, at
least, attempt to do so now. 10 his opinion
there could be 90 better place than this room,
nor more suitable time than the present to
inaugurate movement for the establishment
of a stable currency iu this Country with low
rate of interest This is what the people want,
and they will not be satisfied till they get it.
Mr.. ID. II. London, Of New York, Was in-
vlted to address the meeting, but excused him
self from making speech, on the ground that
he had made an engagement to address the
Richmond Chamber of Commerce on the sub
ject one night this week. He would say, how.
ever, that the people of Virginia had every.
thing to gain and nothing to lose by sustaining
the scheme for az Exchequer Ii adopted, it
would save $500, OOO, 900 to the National Gov
eminent 10 ten years, add from FIVE to eleven
millions of dollars to the banking capital Of
Virginia, and lead to the abolition Of the in
ternal revenue system.
