3 AFFAIRS IN EUROPE. ‘Tue New Penal Law of France. - WATRRESTING DEBATE IN THE FRENCH LRGISLATURE. ‘Fhe Legislative body of France sat on Thareday, 18th wit., ountde Moray in the chair. The order of ay ‘was the discussion on the Dill relative to measures of pab- Mc safety, The following is @ summary of we procees- me — M. Praue Ouuwren declared that he must oppose the measure, ROt as @ party man, but in the name of pablic reht. The Orst reproach be Wrongs ‘against it was that it was presented on afaise pretext. The altempton the Bu ng 's life, 80 for y averied by Providence, having plotted ma foreign country, inspired by foreiga re eentments, and executed by foreigners, was no! @ French erime — In the eceond place, the bill would violate all the ciples which serve as the base of all penal | »gislation. it the judicial and exeoutive powers would be con- founded 1 r, the ordinary ferms of justice suppressed, and the ee Which it was desired to punish woald not de defined. The men whom it was proposed to strike had already undergone their pumsiment; the Dill, in fact, pore hg ‘a retroactive effect. If society was in danger it appeared to bim tha; the government was already suf- ficiently armed to protect it, as laws were not wanting against conspirators. The new oil! would, consequentty, be directed against persons who, though not conspiring might merely have an air and appearance calculated to dis Please. The honorable gentleman maintained that a0 man could be certain of not being attanted by the Dil, aud he therefore must implore the chamber, through devotion to the government, to reject the measure. M. GRaNins DE Cassaovac sate that, connected with the present bill were rewiniscences Delopging to govern- ments which possessed a great strength, and whicn osed i whb ebergy. Although notoing had been said of @ State prison or of a Baste, some persons were evidently eccupid with ideas of that uature. He woul seize on that occasion to affirm that the ‘iret empire, as well as the apcient monarchy, were rigtimes ©: a very moderate cha- racter. 1t was the revolutionary times alone wh ch were periods of violence, Ifthe number of prisoners (or poli- tical or religious-causes under the @irst empire or the an- cient naaey wore compare. with that under the revo- lutionary epoch . would be found that those in the for- mer times were quite insignificant The honorable gen- ‘leman pointed out in forcible terms the sanguinary abyss into which societies allow themselves to sink when they hesitate to lend their full co-operation in critical emer- jes to the governments which were ready to save and luded by mening = the imperious neces- -sity which existed for voting the bill. The Marquis DY AxpeLanns observed, that in qrenacect the horrible crime of the 14th of Januery, he at first hesitated what vote be ought to give, but, in hie opinion. several decisive objections could be prought torw: ‘against this measure. In the first place, it would be in oppocition to the very object proposed; secondly, it would de a political fault, alike dangerous and uncalled for; and, <atill further, ‘t would wolate not only the principle of non- retroactivity, but that other, which declares that no citi- zen can be removed from the jurisdiction of his natural judges. In consequence of these reasons he should tind himself forced to vote against several of the provisions of ‘the dill. ‘™ Rucre said that im politics he belonged to the school of common sense; and, being #0, he was ebliged to ask himself if there was aby danger for society in the present Dill, or if the enactments proposed were not of a nature to protect society. . It assuredly could not in any case what- ‘ever injure of menace well conducted persons. Drawing yooms would preserve their liberty of conversation and the preesits freedom of remark; it was the poniard ulone which the government desired to wrench from the hand of its enemies. The honorable member then examined the several provisions of tbe bill, and adduced arguments to prove that, being directed agaiust dangerous men alone, they coald not contain anything to disquiet the well inten- tioned. There was, besides. he observed, one thing which must hold full sway over all governments, ant that was the sovereignty of morality aud of reason. But aa the Emperor's government was only too well inclined to attend to the wishes of public opinion, public opinion need pot feel any alarm. The present bill he conceived to be the reply of men of order to the avowed or secret partivane of revolution; that was its true character, aod ‘that would be its moral force. M. Pucnon declared that if he knew of any measure, whatever, capable of preventing the repetition of the dreadful ‘attempt by which the whole of France had Deen so deeply agitated, he would eagerly vote for ft, whatever might be its character; bat be could not recognise in the present bill amy such efii- acy; on the contrary, he considered it most objectionable. The part of the bill which authorized the government to expel from the territory any persons whom condemnation or measures of public safety bad already fallen on, appeared to him to be stained by the vice of retroaction. in bis opinion the government was sot provided with sufficient arms against secret societies, ‘and be felt serious alarm at the consequences which might be produced by the interdiction cast on a great number of persons whoee passions and hatred would in all proba- bility be worked upto ap exceeding pitch of irritation. He was far |rom deny ing ¢hat certain perils menaced so- ciety, he would even allow them to be of a most serious écecription, but he did not think the remedy forthem was to be found in exceptioual measures. He believed that tthe peril lay in the pro/ound demoralization of the masses ‘and in the propagation of frightful doctrines, and con- sidered thad.the progress of the evil was favored by the act of universal suffrage. Every concession made to the tendencies of 1848 appeared to him funeste, and the means for the government conjure away the peril would be to ‘Dear in mind that the part whicl had to perform was, ‘above ail, one of reparation, and that it ough: w leaa for support only on the conservative strength of society. 4. Baxocum, President of the Council of State, explained the bearing and effect of the bill. It did nothing, he sad, Dut continue the policy of reparavion and conservatism. Asturecly, the government would be delighted Mg os wo ve Wo the Legisiauive only measures of clemen- By, but the country ought to know the truth. Perpetual concessions, @aggerated respect for the scruples of ja- rists, and systematic tolerance had in succession led two rnments to the abysees of 1890 and 1848. Th empire would not imitate any such acts of weakness: it uew that the attempt of the l4tb of Janoary hed been wommitied by some foreigners coming from other cocn- tries, and that the assassins bad not exposed tueir lives without being sustained in their undertaking by some bopes of beboiding their crime prove prodtaole wo anarchy. Already on several points of the territory @ certain aoti- cipation of approaching disturbances bad perceived all the information received after the attempt of January 14 bad tended to prove the existence of such & fate of things. For his part be desired neither to exag gorate nor extenuate the evil. There still exieted in France some remnante of the insurrectiouary bodies of 1548, who received, no one could say how, mysterious intelligence, and towards whom were turned the regards of the abet- tors of dworder. The country could not remain exposed to the enterprises of that incorrigible minority, and fod juwelf constantly held in check by a few factious mulcon- tents. It was necessary to render them powerless to do harm, and such was the object ef the present bill. The government wanted to have neither a law for the sus- pec ed nor @ measure of an inquisitorial charecter. All ‘that it asked for was an arm to defend itself in the face of day, avd the legislative body, associated, ws it closely with it in tts policy of reparation, could not re! what it asked. The consileration of the articles was postponed w next “Fie Logialative body sat the next day, February 10— Count de Morny in the clair. The order of the day was the aijeurned discussion on the bill relative to measures of public safety, article 1 Demg ander cons deration MM. Leanaxy (du Nord) bad w remark that this article did pot belong to the political, but to the judicial and per- manent part of the measure.

Now, he could not see that article 1 posseseed that character, and, consequently, he must ask for explacations on the point. In particular, he should like to know if the article Applied borb to crimes and misdemeanors provided for by article #6 of the Peni Code, or to crimes only. M. AnouPHe Deweiueyae spoke in favor of the article. He thought that the bill ought not to be separated from the facts which bad led to its presentation. The great character of the measure was one of imperative necessity, And ite object war the security of society—it was, in a wor, a bill brought forward for the present conjuncture. ‘The bon rable gentieman then referred to the .ncessaat ert: of clemency t which the Emperor had yielded since bis accession to the throne, and he added, thai the conse- quenee of these acts of Kindness was to briag back in the wide of the population the leaders of the demagogical party, and that party nad again appeared im the arene at the last elections.

Having such opinions, he must call on the gov- ernment commissioners to assign a precise meaning to the uage of the article, . Barocke said toat the whole question was this— ought it to be permitted to excite Latred and contempt of the government, or to trouble public tranquillity, or, on he other hand, ought the government to endeavor to pga- ish (ue mapeuvres which aimed at the odjeci? Nothing inquisitorial was intended by the article, aud the words objected to were not more vi in the bill now under consideration thap in the Pebal Code. The fact of having written a letter which might bave been seized did not constitute @ manwuvre, and, for his part, he could Joot conceive an extreme.case which might never occur being brought forward as a sufficient reason for opposing a mea- sure intended to defend such grave interests as those which were at Btako. A M. Ouaviee must insist that the bill reachesevery pro- vocation mede in a public plage or in the press. That he perfectly well understood; but what he could not under. stand was that it should be desired to reach the remarks exchanged between friends. ‘M. Graxma ws Cassagnac desired to Soro. M. de Pierre on a matter which concerned himself personally He wished to observe, that for twenty-five yeare he had been defending the cause of order society; and when he locked at the state of the country he was apprehen sive that the moment had not arrived for him to retire from action. - Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 were successively put tothe vote and adopted. M. AyME gt pet Article 6. Having voted for Arti- cles 1 and 2, he not thought it right to oppose Articie 5, which rendered persens condemned in virtue of these rovisions subject to the measures of public safety; out ¢ could not admit that that enactment be applied to per- tons condemped for other crimes or misdemeanors. It ‘appeared to him that as far as related to such persons, there existed a sufficient guarantee in Article 221 of the Penal Coce, which permits the judges in extreme cases to subject them to the surveillance of the police. Article 6 was adopted, as were Articles 7, 8 and 9. M. Garxav, in speaking of Article 10, observed thatat the moment of voting this most important measure he felt an indescribable sadness in comirg forward to deslare tha! he could not accede to the bill. It was becaise he wes more anxious than any other to behold the firm mainte- wance of the empire that he felt unabie to vote a bill de- signated unfortunate for its supporters and disastrous by ne oppenents. Article 10 was adopted. The bill in ite ensemble was then putto the vote and adopted by 227 votes to 24. 1e sitting was then brought to a close. England’s Position in China. [From the London Times, Feb. 24 } Of all the episodes of Englleh history the Chinese war of 1856-7 is likely to be the most extraordinary. It is hard to say which of its featares is the straogest. Having come to a rupture with the representative of an enormous empire at \ts most important seaport, we despatched four regiments of infantry from this country for the purpose of bringing 300,000,000 people to terms. While the troops were on their way to their destination we were surprised by the mutinies in Bengal, and proceeded incontinently to put the war with China on tn sbelf and eend the expedition in another direction all gether. Our Indian authorities evea borrowed the Pieni- dary himself from Hong Kong, and, along with this lunctionary, the single battalion actually unde r his orders, For six months or so we dismissed the Chinese war from our thoughts, and kept the Celestial Empire at bay with a until at last, having got a little breathing time in India, we thought it better to make an end of the affair at Canton. With this view, accordingly, we sent outa few hundred marines, and, Lord Egin naving returned with ‘the 50th Regiment from Calcutta, it was determined to open the cam . Toe descent of this force, aited by a French brigade, upon the empire of China, proved entirely successful. Canton is in our hands, and Mr, Commissioner hip of war or two; Yeh is on board one of our ships, & prisoner of war. fo complete the anomaly, nobody’ is giviog the smallest thovgbt wo the matter. [n this country aflaire derive weir wpterest from their Parliamentary importance. Last year the wnole pation was convulsed about China, and Yeh's ame was in everybody's mouth. Now the tales are turved again, for, though the Minister is more “out,”” it is upon another question, and tbe mail bringing in the consummation of the business undertaken ‘weive months ago is almost unheeded in the sensation created by Lord Derby's new government The event, however, is really worth attention, for its consequences no lees ite character. Itis sow mani- feet that the coercion of these turbulent Cantonese was @ work easily within our power, and that our patient endu- rance of their arrogance and offences for so long a period might bave been terminated almost at any time we pleased. Our might is now as evident as our right. It Was thought somewhat doubtful, even on the spot, whe- ther a city teeming with so flerce a population, under ,the command of a resolute and merciless Governor, who bad been aliowed several months to prepare for the attack, might not present formidable obetacies to the assailante. Yen's own anpouncements breathed a spirit of traculent defiance. He was to blow us to pieces with monster guns, tooverwhelm us with Tartar psy 2 to catch ug ip tiger pits, and to bury us alive in the streets of the town: nor were apy of these menaces altogether abeurd, considering the proportion between our numbers ‘and his. Nevertheises, by « most judicious combination of courage and strategy, the place bas droppec fairly into our hands; and @ campaign of a few days bas sufficed to give us porseseion of Canton, and its Governor too. ‘And now, a8 we bave caught this Tartar, what are we todo with him? The man is identified absolutely with all this disturoance. He, in his own person, has been the Delligerent opposed us, and the capture of Yeb is an operation as decisive as the capture of Canton. We sus- pect that our victory itself might, in some degree been owing to a friendly party in the ony, a not force even the Cantonese to back him ia his im- placable obstinacy. The Chinese merchants knew our de- mands, and knew them to be reasonable, It was at least as much their interest as ours that the tea trade shoald flourish, and nobody's interest but Yeh’s that a resoin- tion indefensibly conceived should be maintained at all bazarce and through the worst extremities of war. Tuis ‘wrongheaded official, however, is now io our custody. and we think the beet course to ue would be to bring him to Engiand. We should probably save his head by euch a proc eding, and, though be may pot bave earned the j tection at present, he may possibly do ro hereafter. fe hope we are not presumptuous in the opinion, bat it really seers as if men became disabused of a good many preja dices by coming to tee us in our own country. A visit to England bas jeft Jung Bahadoor our firm ally, and Sir Colin Campbell is probably @. this minute in Oude with the aid of a Prince who a few years ago was driving about | Hyde Park. Io London, Commissioner Yeh would learn two lessona—tiret, that It im not easy to resist our power, and next, that there i# nothing in our designs to render such a resistance desirable. By and Ne 4 be might go back ‘to China and empioy the capaciiy which he evidently pos- peanes in facilitating our access to the interior of the em- re. Pie anomalies characteristis of this whole affair The Chinese war e capture of Canton seems to have given a remarkable stimulus to Dusiness. A Chinese Governor, | if said, bas been ap- pointed under British authority to the admioistrauion va- cated by Governor Yeb, and the matter of fact mpres- sions prevailing among Chinamen of all classes will lead them ee Dine sg ww our suggestions for atime. ‘that a war whi has never affected com- tility between the belligerents, and which has just veeo consummated with forces ludicrously disproporuened to ‘the task, will end without the smallest soreness, ao1 even object of our operations—viz: the removal of the conditions offensively upon our resi. dence st Canton, bas Bow ae oa appoyances in these respects proceeded probably from the traditiona) ferocity of the Canton rabbie, maintained and exasperated by the accidental bigotry ofa perticalar Governor. We have now got this city and its Governor to gether, and the terms of our future settlement remain, of course, in our own hands. We anticipate po difficulty in es tablich.ng the reguiavions desirable, and which have been already proved at other ports to be perfectly compatible ‘with the pursuits, institutions, and even prejudices of the Chinese. The character of China, in fact, aa de vieted by our corresponitent, much resembles that of Africa, as de scribed by Dr. Livingswne, Al) the impediments to in- Veroourse are on the oxide, and are mainly created by the interested machinations of a class. Penetrate this Darrier, and you fied an immense population ami cably disposed, and perfectly ready to receive any in the way of barter or trade. If n> signal of hostility given by the Mandaring, it seems that apy merchant or traveller roam over Chips at his pleasare. These nities, be they worth mach or little, it would certainly be to the advan- tage ofall partie to enjoy. Faropeane want silk and tea - mame, mene oe particularly anxious to earn silver from Puropeane, an mas, eorhege, even pur- chase other commodities when we ve alapted our markets more succersfaily to their taste. Atany rate, this traditional isolation, which the Chinese are quick infringe for their own aivantage, had better come to an end altogether. It is hard enough, as we see, to be preserved even under the consistent policy of the Japanese, bot such pretensions are utterly ustecabie in the case of an empire driving & prodigious foreign trade, apd ‘ing ita hordes of emigrante into foreign colonies. For present moment, however, it is sufficient to con gratulate ourre on the unqualified success ene which, in the event of a different result, might bave ocoasionet no slight perplexities. The E: of the Mormons— er ag From the Loud Post, Feb. 22.) Although the Mormons ef Utah remain in a state of open insurrection against the federal government—al though the | nited States army is only wating the return of epring (> advance upon the Salt I City, we hear that & Mormon delegate at Washington bas made overtures to Mr. Bochanan, Sgnltying the willmgness of the Seine w leave the tory and take up their fucure renidence on some isiagd outside the juris- dict.on of the United States.’ The delegate, however Toya) Was ihe gvyerament, as & Gyusiderative jpg the proposed removal, should give the ta a fair price for the improvements which they have effected in Salt Lake Gity. Tos cool offer, made by the agersof a rebel- Hous Stale, savors somewhat of thet tonaat right doctrine which, In referemee (0 Ireland, has been so loudly and so pertinaciously areorted by Mr. S. Crawford, Mr. G A. Moore, and by Mr. MaGuire, Mr. Bachenan, it ay: pears, has rajected the offer, no doubt imiueaced by the comviction that it would be on hie part an un- worthy and degraded policy to make terms with rebele so Jong ag they have arms in their heads. Bat cue proposal made by the delogate, Mr. Bernhisel, shows that the Mor. mons have calculated with bo tncensicerable amount of deliberation and cere the Chances which the approaching campuign may'bring forth. The history of the Mormon imperture presents one lavariable feature-—parmely, that whenever the Saints have Deen brought into contact wih the Gentile world, they have retreated into the wilderaeas. Not ixing the prospect of being atlackea by Gen. Soot, from Canfornia, and by Col. Joonstoa, who en the otuer side ehreatevs the Salt (ake City, they are once more con- templating another exodus to ‘some remote and little Kpown region of the North American continent [a this country we have lately heard a great deal urged on the subjectot the rightof asylum. What interpretation can be placed upon the words used by Mr. Beruhwel, “ some island outside the jzrisdistion of the United States,” except this, that the Saints, with their multitudes of wives, intend, in tree patriarcbal fashion, to take up their residence on-seme isiand which belengs tothe British Crown” ‘We do not, of course, for 4 moment imagine that they desire to favor the dominions of the Emperor of Russia with invasion, as the autocracy of the Cear would interfere rather disagreeably with the absolute power, temporal as well as spiritual, which Mr. Brigham Youog ig permitted by his foolish and ignorant dupes to exercise. The United States governmens would no doubt greatly re- Joice to find shis complicatio settled by the eatire removal of the fanatics, either to Sritish or Rassian dominions, aud we do not believe that they would trouble themselves to pursue the fugitives across tbe frontier. Bat what would the peopie of England say when they heard that some tfty thougand Mormon men, women and children, with ail the machinery of their impure superstition, uated down upon Bruish territory, and claimed the rights of British subjects? Would they give a welcome to these retugees, and extend to them the right of asylum, and the priviege of sel(- government? We believe that they would regard tho presence of the Saints as agreat calamity, and that the government would be reqaired to put down by force ia- stitutions which legalize polygamy, and treat ever species ne. The pi migration of matter which the British people carnot afford to regard with ineifference, Sut what islamd is the favoreo soot which the Saints hav lected for their new home? Cap it be Vancou Isiand, the government of which Mr. Labouchere can no lopger continue in the hands of the Hudgon’s Bay Com- [om aay. because that corporation has wilfally neglected to fulfil the conditions on which it was granted to them? Another locality has been mentioned—the district mecrf Winnepag> Lake, not far from the Red river settlemont—whore there ix at present a pop2 lation of ten thousand Br: ish supjects who live under the arbitrary and irrespous ble rule of the Huigon’s Jay Compeny. Gur object m now calling attention to the subjectis to point out tha fact that at the present mo- mext the Mormons, if they Mave the ‘mclination, have alzo the power, of seizing Wsucouver’s Isiand, or ‘any other portion of the northwesirrn territory which constitaves hunting grounds of the Mudgon’s Bay Company. We lad to find that Lord "wry and Mr, Reebuck are de- termined to carry on war against the sole remaining poli- tical and commercial monopoly which still disgraces the colonial administration of this country. The government of the Hudson’s Bay Coropany, except for the purpose of enforcing byefaws, wun are fllegal—becaaxe they are incidents of a monopoly wuich the authorities of tas crown have deolared to be illega!—ig@ complete sham. Amer:- can Citizens from Micnesota hares 4 trade within the terri- tory, and no one iniericres with them, whilst British subjecta are imprisoned 4 the pleasure of the Company; and, when an appeal is likely to be made to law, immediate compensation is given to remove that palla- dium of monopoly—the charter of Charles tne ?ecva4— from the scrutiny of a Canadian or British Court of justice. The answer and the e.bscqueat explanation ‘which have been given by Mr. Labvuchere to tiv recent question of Lord Bary will cause great irritation and dis- satisfaction throughout the length acd breadth of Cana la. The time has arrived when efficient goverament must be established throughout the northwe:' territory from Vam- couver’s Island on the Pacific to Lake Superior, not only As @ protection aga nat Lue o2cas\ona! lacursions of Amort- can citizens, but a+ a protection agaiust the wholesale in- vasion which the Mormons now s% openly threaten, and which they wili surely accomplisin if the compapy ia’ Fen. church street is, by some extranrd vary incovsixtency to be allowed to survive the destruction of its great bro.her in Leadenhal! street. The Coon a! ofice should determine while there is yet time whether the wishes of the people of Canada—nay, more, the wishes and rights of the people of England—are to be sacriticed i the interests of a cor- poraiion which, for its own selfish purposes, har con- signed to barbarism a territory as lagge a3 the whole of Europe.

Sarcrpay, March 13—6 P. M. The stock market was somewhat depressed this morning throughout the first session of the Board of Brokers. About the usual amount of business was transacted, but prices ruled generally lower. Mis- souri State 6's declined j per cent; California State 7's, 24; Minois Central bonds, 4; Cumberland, 3; Erie, 4; Hudson River Railroad, Reading, 14; Michigan Southern, preferred, 14; Galena and Chir cago, 4; Cleveland and Toledo, 2; Chicago and Rock Island, 1. La Crosse land grant bouds advanced 1 per cent; Pacific Steamship Company, 4; Illinois Central Railroad,}. In New York Central there was a very moderate business, and the purchases were principally by one party. We understand that more than twenty five handred shares of this stock have, within the past few days, been transferred to foreign account and remitted to Europe. There are numerous orders now in the hands of commission houses for the purchase of New York Central shares, but limited below the market. The impression is that steamers now nearly due will bring an advance on present limits, and that not only all the old orders, but many new ones, will be fulfilled at much higher rates. Erie will, it is thought, be favorably affected in a similar manner. There is an active European demand for both of these stocks, Hudson River Railroad opened and closed steady this morning. This stock has for some time past been operated in to some extent, and we hear of large lots going out of the street into strong hands. Reading was active this morning, but opened at quite a decline on the closing prices of yesterday. Michigan Southern, both preferred and common stock, has been steadily settling down. In the pro- ferred the fall has been very great. There are some ugly rumors afloat relative to the discovery of in- creased indebtedness. The finances of the company appear to be at loose ends, and not at all in proper shape. Panama closed a little heavy gt 105j per cent. Only one small lot was sold at that price. Cleveland and Toledo opened at 45}, and closed at 444 per cent, and most of the transactions were for cash. Chicago and Rock Island improved a fraction on the opening. Very little of this stock was sold at the first board. La Crosse and Milwaukie was quite active this morning. Amid all the fluctuations in other stocks this has not varied one per cent. It appears to be fixed between 10 and 11 per cent, and all the sales made are between these points. Rail- road bonds were not at all active today. The bulk of the business was in La Crosse land grant bonds at better prices. This company has now plain sail- ing, and it is evidently in the hands of men having the ability and the determination to push it forward to completion in the shortest possible time. At the second board the market stiffened up a lit tle. New York Central advanced 4 per cent; Hud- son River Railroad 4; Michigan Southern, $; Chica- go and Rock Island, 4. Reading fell off j, closing at 574 per cent. Chicago and Rock Island closed at 82 per cent, buyer 30 days. After the board the market was dull, but prices were without change. The transactions at the Clearing Honse to-day were as follows:— Total exchanges. Tota! balances . The Metropolitan currency certificates now amount to $699,000. The tonnage on the Reading Railroad last week was 20,377. Total this season, 269,349, against 376,331 to the same date last year. Tog Vauapians arp balling about two graad ship $14,968,797 67 907 902 71 ana's to facilitate the lake navigation—one to von- nect lakes Erie and Huren, running from Rondeau | harbor to the river St. Clair, 30 miles, and another from Georgian Bay to Toronto, 100 miles, 23 of which will be through iake Simcoe, to connect lake Ontario with lake Huron. Engineers have surveyed both routes, and have estimated that the first will vost $3,000,000, and the other $22,000,000. It i+ said that the connection of Erie and Huron by a ship canal would save millions of dollars yearly in expe- diting the commerce of the apper lakes. The other cangl cuts off Niagara Falis and affords access to all the lakes from the St. Lawrence, From the fourth annual report of the Memphis and Little Rock Railroad we learn that sixteen miles were completed in February, while there is enoygh of iron contracted for to reach the St. Francis river. There are twenty-two continuous miles graded, with six or seven more in detached parcels, The remainder is under contract, and will We ready as soon as required Cor tracklaying. ‘Tree earnings of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne po Chicago Railroad Company, for the month of Feb- ruary, were as follows:— Farnings for the same month last year.... Deercase 14 per cont, Farnings for Januar: Increase of Fe ebruasy The connection between this road and the Pean- sylvania Rfilroad in Pittsburg, which has long ‘been delayed by the opposition of the City Councils of Pittsburg, was completed on the 10th instant, and passengers are now exchanged between the tworoads in the depot of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The following are the earnings of the Terre Haute, Alton and St. Louis Railroad for January and Feb- ruary:— 1867. January $66,475 February’, 45,079 Total. $101,564 —An increase of $8,094, A meeting of the bondholders of the Boston, Con- cord and Montreal Railroad was held at Boston yes terday to take measures in aid of extinguishing the floating debt of the company. Its amount was stat- ed to be $258,000, exclusive of interest, which in creases it considerably. The amount suyscribed is $234,000, and $35,000 more is needed to pay the debt in full. Messrs. William B. Dodge, Hinckley, and E W. Hutchings were appointed a committee to solicit subscriptions from the bondholders. The Harrisburg Telegraph states that there was a sale on Saturday of what were considered the most worthless assets of the late Lancaster Bank of Penn- sylvania. The nominal amount of the assets was about $70,000—of which two notes for $6,000 were withdrawn. The remainder were sold to various persons, the bank receiving more than $9,000. All of the notes and obligations sold, with one excep- tion, had been set down as of little or no value, and were not appraised when the bank went into assign- ment. The sale exceeded the expectations of those interested in the bank. The earnings of the Norwich and Worcester Rail- road for the month of February last were:— $5,140 84 + 9218 37 Total....esseeee evesses 14,359 21 Receipts for February, 1857 31 31 Decrense. ..+++ $3,962 10 The passenger business this year is nearly the same as last, nearly the whole decrease being in the freight traffic.

The annual meeting of the New Haven, New Lon- don and Stonington Railroad was held at New Ha- ven last week, when the following gentlemen were elected directors:—Wyllis Blackstone, New York; C. 8. Bushnell, New Haven; E. C. Scranton, A. 0. Wilcox, Madison; G. F. Ward, Sumner Bull, Say- } brook; Charles J. McCurdy, Lyme; A. C. Lippit, New London; Elias B. Brown, Mystic. The receipts from April 1, 1856, to Dec. 31, 1857, according to the report of the directors, were as follows:— From passengers . Freight... Mail vervice,. Express and rents Total receipts... sesseeee Expenses of operation...... Net... ccceeee seb eeereeceeees $50,810 93 The payments of interest have amounted to $80,001 19. The floating debt and accumulated inte- rest is $48,410 08. There have been 192,012 passen- gers carried over the road. There has been $206,704 80 collected on the stock of the extension road and receipts from other quarters, which make the total receipts on account of the extension to Stonington $221,014 27. The land claims exceed the estimates $15,000, and the road is increased in length one and a balf miles, on account of the location of the Mystic Bridge and the Groton termination. Those extra expenses increase the cost of the road $50,000. It will require $150,000 more to complete the road, and the directors recommend an issue of 6 per cent mort gage bonds to an amount not to exceed $200,000, having ten years to run, to raise this amount. The directors also recommend to extend or fund for five years the coupons which fell due September, 1857, and January, 1858, and those which fall dae March and July, 1858, amounting to the sum of $43,500, with interest from the date of the coupons, ‘The Lynn Bay State says the shoe business and consequently other business in that city is reviving: — i cscoma vou were, aoe pote Ue ~ had ring the present week or two, an: ir purchases have been small, compared with other years, they have deen sufficient to consume the entire stock of shoes on = Ci LF mere. ce have arrived period @ * ‘inese in generally about over, but it is now propebles under existing ‘aresauianoen that buyers will continue to arrive, making their purchases later, and that orders will be received than usual. up—a large proportion dne this menth, and under the ex that it wilt be honored oor shoe manufactur: encouraged to extend their ere yons, which they are thus farnishing the jours oe bave been ont of bay F comeey. bs be 4 58 584 58 me 26% 254 10 Amer Exch Bank, 10534 ae 16 Metropolitaniank 104 Z0common'th Ti. | 90” in” ee 50 S333 4 ? = z e 2; 2 is 2: PT & 5 ry e 160 Mi S&N Ia pri stk. 100 Chi ate...
