FROM EUROPE. Panis, 28d March, 1847. of the European Governments. | wandering stockjobbers who float about | inthe Passage de Opera, were thrown into a | great state of excitement, a few evenings ago, by | the circulation of a statement showing that the Emperor of Russia had made a purchase of fifty millions of French rentes, giving in payment a right to the bank of France to draw on St. Peters- | burgh for that amount in specie, deposited there | to their credit. This singular transaction has sinoe become the principal topio of the newspa- | pers of London and Paris, varied occasionally by queer letters from Lola Montes, the famous Spanish danseuse, who is said to have revolution- ized the cabinet of Bavaria and the heart of the King, at one and the same time. What a strange state of things exists in Europe! Here we count five or six great monarchies, or | empires, besides ten or a dozen small ones, fol- lowing the wake of the large kingdoms. Nearly two millions of soldiers are constantly kept in a state of readiness, leading toa vast expense, and | vast abstraction from the proceeds of the work- | ing classes. Yet, during the last six months, | these great governments have been engaged in | the most paltry, demoralizing, ridiculous, and | questionable affuirs; and the whole press and talent of Europe bave taken the same direction i their discussions and remarks. Recently, it was the Montpensiecr marriage—the absorption of Cracow—the teapot revolution in Geneva—now itis the stockjobbing operations of Nicholas on the Paris Bourse, or the politico-amorous move- ments of Md’lle Lola Montes in Munich. These two latter funny subjects occupy, at presents, al- | most every pen in the newspapers, and every tongue in the salons, In this barren wilderness of human effort, there is only one or two matters that really de- serve the attention of the heart or the intellect. Tallude'to the first opening of the new Prussian Parliament, or Congress, or Diet, which will take place in Berlin next month, or to the famine | tically the same, that the administration is pur- | our fortress of San Juan d’ Ulua to the city of Mexico. that there will be a ¢eommotion at hisdeath. I doubt it—very much. There may be attempts, but they will hardly sueceed. Germany is the country to which we may look for the first bud- dings of the seeds of a newage and new state of | society. Germany gave the world one Luther, | and I think she has another in her bosom. The War with Mexico—The Plan of Conduct- | lug It recommended by the Herald, literally | carried out. | When the war between the United States and | Mexico broke out, and immediately after the | pulse sustained by the Mexicans in theirfirstcon- flict with our army, the Herald recommended a plan of conducting the campaign, which we have the pleasure of seeing is the very one, or iden- suing. In the Herald of May 28, 1846, we held the fol- lowing language :— . General Taylor was sent to take up a position on tho | Rio Grande, not, is it true, to provoke an attack, al- though such was the effect.’ General Ampudia was de- spatched to capture him, which he attempted to do by cutting him off from Point Isabel. To ensure the cap- ture, General Arista was afterwards sent on ; but not- withstanding the large odds against him, General Tuy- lor by his skill, bravery and decision, has completely overmatched and beaten the Mexican force with vastly disproportioned numbers. Paredes on the one side and Scott on the other—the one has taken—the other is preparing to take the field, and then the game will be full, rilliant, and masterly, But it is evident that the game | will not be confined to the banks ofthe Rio Grande, or | the adjacent chaparral. Before many months go by the U. States flag must wave over the ram) of San Juan @ Ulus. Vera Crus must be by United States troops. Jalapa, Perote and Puebla must be coerced into neutrality, (we hope there may be no need of coercion.) and thus'# line of communication must be opened from ey and nowhere else, must terms of peace be dic- tated. ‘All this can be effected without shedding a drop of blood. Let proclamation be made on the line of route, that we war not with the people of Mexico, but that we repel the ssions of those who distract the councils of that nation for theirown ambitious purposes. L strictest discipline be enforced in our army, and soldiery be restrained by stringent milit rule, from offering the slightest molestation to the unoifending na- tives of the country they pass through, But in order to produce these results, thirty thousand | troops at least must be landed at Vera Cruz. The num- bers of volunteers who lately reinforced Gen. Taylor will enable him to spare a portion of the regular troops, to form the nucleus of the force to be sent to Vern Crus Of this force Gen. Seott should take comm: Com, Conner take the fortress of S. Jaan Ulu Gen. Scott fortify it. Garrisoned by American soldiers,and with alittle improvement in its fortifications, it would be impregnable. Let Gen. Scott make this his head-quar- ters. Gen. Worth can'easily open » communication with Jalapa, Perote, aud the other inland towns; and in the in Ireland, and destitution or searcity in France, and other parts of Europe, which begin to create | deep-seating feelings of discontent among the great body of the people throughout the continent. Among the nations of Europe, there are two great movements at work—the first class belongs to the governments,and those forming the govern- ing classes—the second class is to be found among the people, the working classes, the great middle rank of society, which is showing itself in various political eruptions every now and then. Various have been the motives attributed to the Emperor of Russia for his recent assist- ance given to the Bank of France, growing out of his purchase of the fifty millions of rentes.— me suppose that it was a dexterous commer- eial movement, intended to divert to Russia a large portion of the money that had been intend- ed to purchase corn with in the United States.— Whether this was a part of the motive or not, is of little consequence—it is certain the effect of the operation will be to give a large portion of the supply of France with corn, into the hands of Russia. ‘It is very odd, but true,” say some of the papers, “but the Emperor ef Russia in the East has beeome a-rival eorn merehant with Jo- aathan in the West—but we'll make a wager hat Jonathan will beat Nicholas out of the field theend.” vtain party in France advocates a Russian ach allianee, alleging that the views and of the two dynasties are more nearly alike isn any othertwo governments in Europe. oth governments are personal and exelusive in their character, and both possess the same views aad impulses upon the remains of the Turkish empire in the Mediterranean. France has colo- nized Algiers, has Greece under her thumb, drawn within her influence Tunis, and is doing the same with Egypt. Russia is yearly ap- proaching Constantinople, and with the consent e{ the modern French empire, under the present dynasty, will soon be enabled to command the outlets of the Black sea. On the other hand Eng- land, the government of an oligarchy with a no- minal sovereign, is endeavoring to open new al- lianees in the north of Europe with Prussia, and the modified liberal governments of Germany and the North. All the governments of Europe are certainly in a state of commotion, or transition, or ehange, | as regards alliances among themselves, views of the future, or policy within their respective li- mits. The rupture of the friendly relations be- tween France and England has led the way to these eurious changes, leading no one can tell exactly whither. The vast standing armies, wach large masses of idleness and show, have inereased the debts and the annual expenditures, which must be supplied by the working popula- meantime Gen. Taylor can maintain his position on the Rio Grande, in despite of all the forces the Mexicans can send against him, as he can be constantly reinforced with troops from every part of the country. Should the Mexicans draw off their forces to re; Gen. Scott, Taylor can follow them at a convenient distance, and thus the two divisions of the Amorican army may yet meet in the city of Mexico. We leave it to our readers to decide, whether the plan and the details of carrying it out recom- mended in that artiele, have not been, and are not now being ,pursued by the administration, almost to the very letter. Comment is needless. Porrrart or Generat TayLor.—Several news- papers in Philadelphia and other cities have re- cently published a portrait of Gen. Taylor, which they say is an accurate likeness of the hero. They said they were indebted to friends, ac- quaintances, cousins, aunts, &c., for the original; but it is rather singular that they are all an exact copy of the portrait which we published some time since, the original of which we obtained from our special correspondent in the army, who sketched it during his leisure hours in camp. The inference we draw from this coincidence is, that our portrait, which was the first publish- ed, was remarkably correct, or that those papers have, to use a plain word, etolen it, copied it, and published it for the benefit of whom it may concern. Tur ConrempLatep CeLEBRATION.—The Joint Special Committee of the Common Council, ap- pointed to take into consideration the most suit- able manner and time of celebrating the several victories achieved by American arms in Mexico, convened last evening, and have fixed upon Friday, the 7th of May. It is understood that the military companies have manifested their willingness to parade on that day, in compliance with an invitation from the Committee. One hundred guns will be fired from the Battery, also Tompkins and Washington Squares. In the evening the various public buildings in the Park will be illuminated, on which occasion, it is ex- pected tifit no less than 11,050 lights will be used. The committee meet again on Tuesday evening to complete their arrangements. Later rrom Bugnos Ayres AnD Montrvipzo.— The intelligence from Montevideo is to the 9th of February. Letters and papers from Buenos Ayres had been received there to the 5th.

The pieces selected for the occasion wero “The Wife” and tho comedy of the “Honeymoon.” Mrs, Mason appeared as Mariana in the first piece, and Juliana in the other, Mr, Wheatley playing Julian St, Pierre and Duke ro There was ‘a large audience, and the performers were greeted with the most enthusiastic applause, and at the conclusion of the first pieee Mrs. Mason was called out and greeted with a special manifestation of the aj proval of her listeners. ‘The Honeymoon,” which was curtailed and compressed into three acts, was admirably performed, and elicited the greatest commendation. the close of the performance Mr. Wheatley being called for, came forward and for Mrs. Mason first, and then for himself, thanked the audience in a handsome manner. Mrs. Mason and her brother appear again on Monday evening, Bowery Tuzatne.—We doubt very much if the Bow- ery Theatre will be capacious enough to accommoda: one-fifth part of those who will wish to attend to-mo1 row, because that evening is set apart for the benefit of Mrs. Shaw, and because also the strongest bill that has | been put forth at that establishment for some time past, | is put forth for that evening, with Mrs. Shaw as Julia, in the * Hunchback,” and as Constance, in the “ Love | Chase.” We are confident that no place of amusement in the city offers attractions so great ay does the Bowery ‘Theatre to-morrow night. Mn. Atexanper.—At the urgent solicitation of his numerous admirers, Mr. Alexander, the great magician and necromancer, is induced to perform for another week in this city. He has come to this determination | with the view of accommodating those whose business | pursuits or avocations would not permit them to see him the last week. He will be found every evening next week, at the Minerva Rooms, Broadway, where, we have no doubt, he will meet with as large audiences as he did during the week past. Miss Caroline Chapman is performing at the Albany Odeon. Yankee Hill is about to appear at Albany. Mr. Anderson and Mrs. Geo. Jones were to os at the National Theatre, Cincinnati, on the 20th.

Arnit 24.—Arrest of Fugitives from Albany.—Con- stable Rue, of this city, and officer Gillespie of Albany, arrested yesterday two men by the names of Isaac Van- derhoof, and Elias Vanderlip, on a warrant, wherein they stand charged with assaulting, with intent to kill, a man by the name of Conrad La Grange, on the 31st of March last in Albany. Mr. La Grange now lays at the point of death from the injuries received. The Mayor of Albany offered $200 reward for the apprehension and conviction of these rufflans. The above officers conveyed them both to Albany, Inst evening. A Charge of Forgery —A complaint was made yester- day before Justice Drinker, against a man by the name of Thomas Eagan, who keeps a porter house in Cherry street, by a young man called James Welsh, wherein Ea- gan stands charged with breaking open a letter about the 26th of February last. directed to Welsh, and to the care of the accused, containing a bill of exchange drawn by the Natis Bank of Ireland to the order of Welsh, and made’ payable by Measrs. Daws, Combs & Beckwith, hants of this city, for £16, or $76 66. This bill it is alleged was taken out of the letter, en- dorsed by a forged endorsement, by which forgery the money was paid to Eagan.without the consent or know- ledge of Welsh. ‘The case will be fully and carefully investigated before Justice Drinker, on Monday. Where's the Second Ward Police ?—Within the last fow nights no less than three burglaries have been per- Petrated; one on the corner of Spruce and Nassau sts., where the rascals blew up the iron safo, stealing there from a large umonnt of property. ‘The other a tailoring establishment, on the corner of Beckman and Nassau Pianitiecanane aeiaog eaten ting tae hoes was cool and bracing.

Army were taken yesterday through pry Be i: Catharine streets, for the use of our it troops in Mexico. They were well built, ace: to the usual model. Farat Accipest.—On the 12th inst., Jas, MeVocan, a native of Connecticut, aged 34 years, proceeded, with several others, to Fort Tompkins, Staten Island, to fire asalute, by way of celebrating the victories achieved in Mexico ; and, after ramming the gun for the twenty- seventh time, imprudently stood in front of it, at a div- tance of about five feet, and in consequence of the smoke caused by firing the gun, his position was not observed b rson attending at the vent, who discharged the vers, ‘the contents killing McVocan, and carrying him about fifteen fect into the air, and so severely injuring lim that he died in the city hospital yesterday; whither he was taken for surgical ald. The coroner held an in- quest, and the jury rendered a verdict that he came to his death by being accidentally injured while firing a salute. Deatn uy Arortexy.—Coroner Walters was called to bold an inquest on the body of John F. Clark, @ native of this city, aged 54 years, who was seized with a fit in the street on Friday afternoon, and died shortly after- wards. Verdict, death by apoplexy. Meetixa or tux Brooxiyx Common Counci ox noanv THE Mackpont#x.—The fathers of our sister city met a day or two since on board this fine frigate, and were received with the usual courtesy of the command- cr and his officers, After a moderate collation of ship's | fare the following sentiments were given :— By Alderman Cross—The Macedonian and her noble conimander—may she have a speedy aud prosperous voyage, and may her mission be the means of relieving the starvation in Ireland and Scotland—giving honor to the people and government that send her, ‘To which Commodore DxKay replied ina brief and appropriate speech, concluding with a toast in honor of the “sister city” of Brooklyn, By Alderman Bexcex—The various relief committees —aiay they, for the honor of the cause in which they are engaged, and of the country in which they live, reconcile all differences, and forthwith fll up the hold of the Ma- cedonian.

Crum Races.—The Great Match for $10,000 on tI wn Course. — Evel — misod well for the interest of the great match unt terday. A little rain fell before daylight, but enough to have any perceptible effect upon the ground. The m was warm and lows and by 10 o'clock | a very gentle shower had fallen, in it promised | to clear up beautifully, Before noon, however, a thun- | der storm of ominous aspect blew up, and the appear- | ances were not deceptive. ‘The rain fell in torrents for more than an hour, and after the extreme violence of the storm was over, it coutinued raining steadily till nearly 4 o’elock. What effect such a storm bad upon the fuclings of all, and more partioularly: ‘upon the con- dition of the course and the approaches thereto we need not say. It was sufficiently deplorable. | Nevertheless, an immense crowd turned out to see the race, and the stands were filled in good season, Had | the weather becn fine, they would not have held a tithe of the spectators. ‘The betting ‘on the course may be quoted at 100 to 60 | on Fanny King inst Revenue, and as the hour for the start approached, there was a good deal of eagerness tolay out money on the mare at this rate. The state of the course was such—being deep in mud, and yet ex- evedingly slippery from the immense quantity of water | —that fears were entertained of accidents to horse and rider, ‘[hese, happily, were all unfounded. | Revonue had the inside and went off in front. making | slow but steady running. The mare kept severallengths | behind him, catching mi mud and water than was at | all agreeabic, As they came to the stand at theend of | the first mile, Revenue had a lead of perhaps four or five lengths. He improved this advantage in the next half mile, but in the following half mile Fanny King regained her position, and they closed the second mile in the same relative positions as the first. The third mile was run in precisely the same manner. In the fourth mile Revenue again opened the gap on the mare; but when de asad upon to make it up she did not respond, as in the previous miles—or rather, Revenue forced the pace, and she could net getto him. At the head of the quarter stretch she made @ rally for the heat, but alto- gether in vain, Finding she could not get to the colt, | the mare was pulled up inside the distance, and walked | in, The time of the heat was 9:48—quite as fast as was expected. ‘The mare suffered much the most from the heat. She must have brought in many pounds over-weight in mud, while the colt had caught none whatever. He showed no symptem of distress, and heavy odds were offered on him at once for the money. It appearing to many that an error had been made in running a waiting race with the mare through such mud, the tactics of her managers were changed, At the tap of the drum she made a dash for the lead. She at once had her head in front, and in making the turn on ghe back stretch drew clear from the colt. But the latter never “gave it up so.” He kept up his rate, caught the mare in straight running, ran locked with her a hun- dred yards, when he showed in front, and before he swung inte the quarter stretch he had a good lead of her. ‘She rallied in the stretch, and as he came to the stand, at the end of the firet mile, she was nearly up to his saddle skirts. From this point he dropped her. At the end of the socond mile he was three or four lengths ahead. She made strong running in the next half mile, but gave back again, and he closed the third mile with a lead of six or eight lengths. He improved his advantage in the last mile, until he reached the head of the quarter stretch, when it was quite out of the question for her to overhaul him, She mado the attempt in vain, and Re- yenue won the heat in 9:60. We might speculate about the result of the race, the effect of the mud, and the probable issue of the contest had the ground been firm, but each reader can mai these matters much more satisfactorily for himself. trust that this is not the final trial of speed and sto ness betweem these noble animals. The public, we know, are wager to see the contest repeated under different cir- cumstances.

Tuesday being one of the semi-monthly days of m ‘eting, the attendance was Limited, as far as regard- ed agricultural members, many of whom, of course, were more profitably engaged in practical occupations of their professions at home, and in carrying out the im- portant theories they derived during their attendance in the winter months at the sessions of the club. ‘The usual quantity of translations from the transactions of the Horticultural Society of Paris were read, possoasin no interest, as regards this climate, but incidentally ef- fective, as showing in one instance the great advantages that youth may derive from the cultivation of the sciences of botany, horticulture, floriculture, ke. One of the papers contained the query. “Can the potatoe continue to grow in the earth when the vegetation of thelr stalks and leaves are suspended by cold?” This was, in the same paper, answered in the affirmative by the’ developements of vegetation in cellars, A cactus was produced, with a reddish streak in the stem, which elicited a long and scientific discussion whether the red blood was generated in tho root of the plant. ‘This being an important query, occupied the attention of the club in a discussion betwean Professor Mapes and Mr, Smith, whose opinions #o materially dif- fered on the causo and origin of the. sanguina- ry fluid, that, we regret to say, the edifying topic had to yield to the discussion of certainly not less important, but to farmers’ more interesting information on the potato, The red fluid in the “ cactus,” we fear, will remain an enigma, as indissoluble as the milk in the cocoa nut. A paper, on the advantages of propagating potatoes | from seed, was read. Professor Mapes was of opinion that as the disenscd potato possessed no potash. that article, applied ass 7 manure, would rectify the absence of the’ ingredient, in which ho was sustained by Judge Van Wycke. Mr Fay, from Southboro’, Mass, gave it as his opinion founded on experience, that ‘the following recipe wil secure a sound crop of potato, if judiciously applied :— streets, and the last on Thursday night, at Mrs. Beman’s shirt depot, where the burglar endeavored to cut out the sash of the window, but was fortunately discovered and compelled to escape by the courage of two young ladies, who sleep in the store; and yet all this is done apparently with impunity almost directly under the nose of the police. We say again, where are the police- probability of a continuance of the blockade. This state of affairs has had a very sensible effect on the money market and business in ge- neral. One writer states, that from the begin- ning it was very improbable that Rosas would voluntarily enter into any pacific arrangement tion. The introduction of railroads over all | Europe is anew element of disturbance, affect- ing equally, industry, population, ideas, liberty and sentiment. The effects of this great peace- , ful revolution eannot yet be predicted or antici- pated; for on every hand these vast mechanical improvements are considered to be equivalent to arevolution---a peaceful revolution. In a few years, a person will be able to travel ina few brief days from one end of Europe to the other, with more ease and eomfort than he could have gone from Paris to Havre a few years ago. The power of rapid locomotion is the power of mind; ideas travel along the rails; social influences cir- culate with the same rapidity; and a whole con- tinent of independent nations becomes, from the action of public opinion, a provisional confede- racy, acting upon and influencing each other. The absolute or despotic ideas which control the action of many of these governments, must be modified intime. Indeed, to some, the time has already come. The movement is under way in Prussia, and the first decided effort in constitu- tional government begins not far from the sourees of the great reformation set on foot by Luther. In Southern Germany, the ex-mistress of 2 Pa- risian editor, Lola Montes, kas taken a turn in polities, after pirouettes, and by her influence, it is gravely said that the Jesuits have been routed out of Munich, the amiable sovereign and poet has been liberated from his conscience-keepers, and henceforth it is believed that Bavaria, a se- cond-rate German kingdom, will follow in the | footsteps of Prussia, instead of the wake of Aus- tria. The events which agitate the governments | of enlightened, moral and religious Europe, and | whieh eonvulse their journals, conducted with | sormuch purity and decency, are certainly of a nevel and extraordinary character. No wonder that Faropean journalists have little taste for the progress of events in the United States. They | make all sorts of charges against our morals, | our intellects, our principles, apd our forms of | society and government; but I will venture to | ‘ay that during the last six months, an amount of pravity, folly, and unprincipled eonduct, has | en developed among the governments of Eu- which could not be reached in twenty times period of time in the United States. 1 ure that a new day will soon dawn on he upper and ontside of affairs seem . nted, orderly, permanent.

By the San Salvador, at Rio, intelligence had been received from Para to the 5th, Maranham to the 8th, Ceara to the 12th, Pernambuco to the 20th, and Bahia to the 24th of February. The utmost tranquillity reigned in all these provinces. The President of Para had assembled an extra meeting of the provincial assembly, to conclude the discussion on the provincial estimates, and fix the police regulations. The clergy of Maranham still continued to be deprived of their pay, which ought to be paid them from the publie chest, and consequently they were reduced to the utmost misery.

The offence, by the present laws, subjected the vessel to confiscatiod, and the principals and accessaries to fines of $1000 each ; but in consideration of its being tho first offence that hud come to the knowledge of the government, the attorney-general, with the advice of | the ministers, forbore to prosecute the case to the full | extent of the law, but imposed in lieu a forfeiture of | $2900, which was promptly paid into the king’s treasury. + The forfeited liquor was publicly emptied into the street | in front of the custom-honse.”? | The Polynesian says :— The example of Lahaina, the present fall, where the crews of two hundred whale ships, numbering more than ‘ix thousand seamen, have refreshed, amid a semi-bar- barous population of three thousand Hawaiians, shows hat excellent order and security can prevail amongst the most _unpromising materials, when alcohol is deni ed admittunce. it has the same effect upon society on shore that \t has upon ships afloat, in the eyes of under- writers.

And thus will this speedily changed to a terrestial paradise—occupied alone by rational, ‘superior beings, who will then treat all the animal creation with as much mercy and kindness as will be compatible with the permanent well-being of man, is change, when made on true principles, will be found to be, in practice, easy and most delightful to all. ROBERT OWEN, New York, March 15, 1847 To tHe Epiror or tHe Heraun :— 1k: In your paper of this morning, some person asks for information relative to Robert Owen's grand plan for the complete reformation of mankind—wishing to be saved the trouble of reading Mr. Owen's long letter which you published em Wednesday. Having known Mr. Owen for nearly five and twenty years, I can answer correspondent in a few worda. Mr. Owen only ass ws to give up Christianity as 0 fable ; to forget that we were ever taught to believe the Bible; to deny that buman nature is corrupt ; to disbe- lieve the doctrine of rewards and punishment ; and, finally, to believe, implicitly, that virtue and vic clusively the result of circumstances, and that they have nothing whatever to do with God, Heaven, or Divine Grace! If I have misunderstood his opinions, or misrepresented them—or if he has changed his doctrines since our old acquaintance—he is on the spot to contradict or correct me. I believe him to be @ very sincere enthusiast in the cause of infidelity, with no private ends in view, but the desire to increase human happiness, and not a very dan- gerous monomaniaist in this nineteenth century of the Christian ora, H.

We learn from one of the officers of the bank, that there have been a number offered for deposit or otherwise; and his opinion is, that there must be a considerable number of these altered issues in eircu- culation, The annexed statement exhibits the aggregate amount of tolls collected in each year, on the public works of Ohio, since and including the year 1832 : Pemtic Worxs or On1o—Gross Amount oy Tours CoLtectep. It will be recollected that the locks at the southern termination of the Ohio Canal and the Miami Canal, connecting these several works with the river in a per- fected navigation, were not completed until the season of 1834, although a navigation was enjoyed through the whole extent of both, to the southern termination, in 1832. In 1838, the first toll was collected on the Miami Extension Canal, which was then oponed from Dayton to the mouth of Loramie’s Creek, in Miami county. The amount received was $3,746. In 1940 the Muskin- gum Improvemept, Wabash and Erie Canal, Warren County Canal, and the Hocking Valley Canal, cach be- came toa limited extent tributary to the general reve- nue derivable from the public works. The Ohio Canal and the Miami Canal, with the navi- gablo feeders of the former, cost the State, im their con- struction, five millions seven hundred and fifteen thou- sand two hundred and three dollars and sixty-nine cents, and afford a navigation of four hundred miles. The Muskingum Improvement, Walhonding Canal, Hocking Canal, Warren Canal, and other improvements, were authorised by the General Assembly at their ses- sion of 1836, when the Board of Canal Commissioners was abolished and the Board of Public Works establish- ed. This was the foundation of the now system of in- ternal improvements. These additional works have cost in their construction nine millions six hundred and fifty three thousand seven hundred and sixty-three dollars twenty-eight cents, and have added to the internal na- vigation of the State four hundred and twenty-two miles. ‘he revenue from the Ohio Canal and the Miami Canal, yielded in the year 1839, (as will be seen by refer- ence to the table.) the gross sum of five hundred and four thousand three hundred and ninety-six dollars, | From this total must be deducted the receipts on the extension of the Miami Canal in the year 1880, amounting to two thousand one hundred and ninety- five dollars. In 1840, the new works undertaken, became to a limited extent productive, when the tolls from all the canals and slackwater navigation of the State, produced the aggregate sum ef five hundred and thirty-throe thousand nine hundred and six dollars. ‘These new works (with the exception of the Extension of the Miami Canal, which was completed in the fore part of the last season.) have all been in operation for several years. Yet we shall find, on consulting the table, that, notwithstanding this great increase of ex- penditure—swelling the cost of the canal improvements | of the State, from five million seven hundred and fifteen thousand two hundred and three dollars, ‘to fifteen million three hundred and sixty-eight thousand nine hundred and thirty-six dollars—the gross revenues from all theso works united, never have equalled those of | 1840, (exceeding those of 1839, when the Ohio and Miami only were productive, in but two instances besides,) until the presént season. | The tolls for 1846, exceed those ef any previous year, | seventy-cight thousand three hundred and ninety-six dolla: and show an increase over those of last year, of one hundred and twenty-eight thousand fivo hundred and fifty-two dollars—the increase of revenue being confined almost exclusively to the Ohio Canal and the Miami line of improvements, including the Wabash and Erie Canals. iu Stock BE; 5 $500 Treas Notes 6% 103 cB cmonce bw as 20000. do Beri 5000 State 5% 's8—b10'98 90 Mor ke War r 5000 do 8% 25 do 1000 Ohio 6's 60 ‘984g 100 do be0 1000 do 98) oO do 60 00 do 8° 75 do 2000 Ohio 7's 101% 50 do 330 750 Ohio 6's 756 98” 225 = do vio ne LN m6 do 60 | 2000 Illinois Special 39 i | 3000 Alabama 5's 6a | 2500 City 5%s 58 a b30 | 5000 Reading Bonds 60 721 oo 10000 Indiana Bonds 38 3000 Penn’a 5's 015 34 fal 91, 200 Harlem ‘bo 316 10 do b30 31% 150 do >! #60 3188 200 © do bao 64 do 3) 50 do bs 25 NO Canal 200 = do 360 45 Morris Canal 19, 100 = do 1 do 19% 50 do 2 Manhattan Ges °° 9333 100 tonitgten lanl Estas ington 200 IMinois Bank bsb ie} co " Second Board. 400 shs Reading RR 60 59 150 she Reading RR 60 59; 200 do #358 50 Il State Bank 16; 100 do 30 58. ‘anal 60 19 30 do 890 5736 50 19, 100 do $85 10% 100 do 51K 0 v10 19 150 do 89058 5@ Farmers’ Loan 31% 20 = do 81058 50 Am Exch Bank 4 | 200 do #90 58 100 Nor & Wor b30 49% | New Stock ba spry ee | §25shs Nor & Wor eash 4914 50shs Harlem RR bnw 51; 2% do Monday 493g 50 do cash 51 23 io 50 do Monday 51 % = do 50 do ab zy do New Yorx, Satunpay Ayreaxoon, April 24, The markets for breadstuffs closed rather heavy-- though for flour to arrive and in the city, at very little variation in prices. The Atlantic States and seaports have been drained of both flour and grain under the previous stimulating influence of high prices, leaving stocks unusually low for the season, which, combined with the backwardness of the spring and the lateness of the opening of commanication with the interior, have had the effect of sustaining prices in the face of apparent- ly unstable markets abroad.
