Offcial declarations of Austria’s neutrality continua to be issued in answer to a report per- siatently circulated In the contrary sense, Itis notfceable, however, that the cflusive references to good undorstanding with Russia and the In- tezrity of thothree Emperora’ allfance, which befora the outbreak of hostilitics characterized every communiquo from the Austrian Chancel- lory, arc now * UNIPORMLY ABSBXT, and the declarations arc confined to a bare as- sertlon of conttnued neutrality. That such neutrality is jealously watchful of Russian progress may be fnforred from tho fact that Roumania and Bervia still refrain from active co-operation In the war. BOTIH ARE TUE MEREST CREATURKS OF RUSSIA’S WILL, The!r help will be valuable in Bulgaria now, especially that of Servla.

The business-scason of New Orleans (which fs that of winter) hiad, however, been frittered away In the struggles of the contending factions, or. In the condition of armed belligerency (which the pregence of Federal troops compelied to be an inactive one), betore Gov. Nicholls obtalned ab- soluto and undisputed possesalon of the Guv- ernment of the State. It was then too late to expect any very great revival in business, and none lias Leen etperienced, There was temporarily a slight advance In the prices obtained for real estate, and State bonds ran up from G to ¥0. The former, has, however, declined, nud become unsalable, and the latter have dropped to 80, The loss of fa- terest In real estate bas been ascribea by many to the result of the reeent municipal electlon, which was a refusal to authorize a tax for the henefit of the New Orleans Pacific Rallway. That elcction probably did have some effeet on the real estote market, for it acems to be the general opialon that there witl never be any real improvement In the busincss of New Orleans until she shall be CONSECTED WITI TEXAS DY MAIL. Botli the city and State, however, have been 60 unfortuuate {n the past in their cfforts to se- cure rallways by the purchase of Interests and the Indorsement of bonds, amounting in the ag- gregate to many millions of dollars, that the taxpayers have become extremcly wkeptiral when the advantagea to be derlved from a rafl- waX—llx are expatiited upon. rignificant cireutnstance in connection with this electfon was the fact that the colored men generally voted with tho taxpayers in opposition 10 Iaying the tax, which was thus defeated by over two to onc. Whatever may have been the canse, however, the fact {a patent that the temporary Improve- ment i real estate bas completely flattened out, and thero s pow no sale for It.” Further, the general Lusiness of the city, which has been steadily on the decline ever since the first year after the War, was never eo prostrate and dull as it is now. ‘thousands of workmen, in consequience, walk the rtrects in-Idlencss, and thousgids of familics are ON THE VERGE OF KTARVATION, Indecd, how balf the people in New Orleans have }ved for the pust five or six years, {s more than I can understaud, ‘There s ubsolutely no manulacturing business at oll done here worthy the name, and what resources the city has ore derived from the handling of the cotton and suzar which are shipped from this port, Previous to the War, when the planters were oblized to ship thelr cotton to their fuctors fn Now Orleans, to satisfy the advances which bud been made to them, the profits of pressihig and handling this commodity wers very . great, Every ate who touchéd g bajo ‘of cotlon churged exurldtautly for his scrvices.
