FRENCH RAILWAYS.—The Cuurrier du Nord states
that the transit trade of the north of France has already
begun to benefit by the system of international railroads.
Large quantities of goods have already arrived at the Valen-
ciennes station from Germany, en route for llavre, for ship-
ment for America. One train alone lately brought silk goods
for that country to the amount of more than 600,000 f. Pre-
viously to the opening of the railway these goods were for-
warded via Holland.
