be the most favorable place in California for

want them to start their man. The whigs
will doubtless start theirs-perhaps in ad,

"ApvERrlsINe.--Men doing business
can hardly afford to do lille, or can only
do it at disadvantage to themselves and
their customers. The city merchant who
sells 100000 worth of goods per year at

TO sell 100000 worth for good pay at five

mail on but one side of the river. The
routes upon the South side embrace the SER

That the North side is the mos, eligible

other reasons:
LIST. The road--a very material consider
ation-from one end of The proposed line
to the other is much the best---best not
only on account of the comparative unbro-

also because the streams or water courses

the fact, that, outstanding there is now
a tri-weekly coach.route on each side OF
the river. most of the travelling, by stage
or otherwise, is done on the Northern
route. Persons even going to and from ST.
Louis to Jefferson City, usually prefer the
line of stages on the North side of the
river, via Fulton. And the great tide OF
emigration too that has flowed, and is vel
flowing westward passes almos, invariably
on the north side of the river.

is that of peace. But other than this

vowal, on the part of Sir Robert Peel, of
the hasty conduct Of Mr.. Pakenham in re-
jecting Mr.. Folks proposition for an ad-
justment on the basis of the 10th deg
there is nothing positively certain. The
abrupt rejection of England's proposition
for arbitration, was not known at our last
accounts, and this may be prejudicial TO a
continuance of peace. We think it proba-
BILE, however, that Mr.. Peel will come back
at Mr.. Polk with proposition substantially
such as was made by Mr.. Buchanan and
rejected by Mr.. Pakenham. Should this
be done, the course of the President will
be decisive of the question: he must either
accept or rejec,--and according as he
adopts the one or the other alternative
peace or war will follow.
The commercial news is of great inter.
est, but it will be observed, that Mr.. Peel's
propositions in regard to the modification
of duties are in an incipient stage, and will
be fercely contested, if no. defeated. in
the House of Lords. 1t will not end there,
however, and new Parliament will, it is
likely, adopt the proposed new Tariff:

Missouri be able to grant charter for
