fore, being highest for Sheriff Adams, viz -5l6.
In this county the three Senators ARE chosen,

The Great Meeting-sympathy Tor the French
Republic.

We give in our columns to-day, full report
of the great popular assemblage held yesterday
in the Park, to express the sympathy of the peo-
pie of New York towards the French people, for
the wonderful revolution which they have &C.
complshed in that country, and the probable es-
Enlistment Of republic in the centre of Eu-
rope.
This report will give full view of the pro-
ceedings of the day, and will indicate, at the
same time, what are the sentiments and feelings
of the whole American republic. The excep-
tions are so uncomfortable as not to be worth
mentioning. The only hesitation and doubt
that have been expressed are in very few news
papers, and portion of the Unlted States Se-
nate; and that doubt merely refers to the ability
of the French people to establish republic, sur
rounded as they are by the monarchies Of Eu-
rope.

Relations OF the United States with the French
Republic.


We understand that the government at Wash
ngton have received dispatches from Mr.. Rush,
communicating his acknowledgment, in ad
vance, of the French republic, with other infor.
nation connected with the recent events in
France. 1t is probable that by the steamer which
goes out tomorrow, a reply to the American
minister in Paris will be made by the govern
ment in Washington, fully authentcating the
conduct Of Mr.. Rush, and communicating some
further views and instructions relative to his
intercourse with the provisional government in
France, and any republican government that
may hereafter be established there.
OF course we have no official account of the
facts connected with this diplomatic correspon-
dence; but we have the best reason for believing
that the American government is disposed, at the
earliest moment, to enter into negotiations OF
commercial character with the new government
of France, based on the highest principles Of reel
prociy, and opposed to all restrictions the trade
yet existing between the two republics. 1t is wei
known that the commercial intercourse betweenl
the two nations, especially the navigation laws,
might be moderated and equalized, far beyond
what they have been in recent treaties. Under
the old French government an immense revenue
was exacted from the introduction and use of
tobacco in France, it being under monopoly Of
the government 1t is probable that this mono
poly will be in a short time given up by the new
republic, as part of its general system of libe-
rating all trade and intercourse between free ma
lions. The navigation laws will also probably
undergo some revision, or attempted revision.
Should peace happily be preserved in Europe,
by the moderation Of the new provisional 60
vernment, and their successors In power, there Is
every reason to believe that new era may be-
gin from the date of the recent revolution, In the
commercial intercourse Of free countries. With
in France there are many local and personal
monopolies, as well as some belonging to the
government, which are hostile to the principles
of the new movement, and which will unques-
tionably be removed as soon as the national con-
vention is under way, and the new government
properly in action. These reforms and changes
will affect in no uncomfortable degree the TO-
reign trade of France and the United States;
and both may be benefited by the great changes
that have already taken place in Paris, and those
which must follow such an suspicious event, for
political, commercial, and all other kinds of
freedom.

FROM GALVESTON.

We received this morning
Galveston papers to the 22d in
slant. The news Of that date
has the following items:
Our city has been visited by
one of the severest storms that
has occurred here since the fall
of '46. The wind continued to
blow fresh from the east until
the night of the 18th, when it
increased to a perfect gale,
sweeping down trees, sign
boards and fences. The water
from the bay rose to an unusual
height, flooding the streets to a.
bove the market. Yesterday
the wind changed to the south
west, and moderated towards
the afternoon-the water mean,
while returning to its usual lev
ell. Many of the ornamental
trees on the streets and in the
gardens were torn up by the
roots, and we learn that some
brick chimneys were blowr
down.. The damage suffered

but trifling in almost every in

gate it must be considerable, but
cannot be estimated with any
thing like accuracy.
The pilot boat mcknight
was driven ashore yesterday at
ternoon near the end of the j.
sland. She will be got off with
out much damage.
The steamer Ogden, from
New Orleans, has been looked
for for some days past. 1t is tc
be hoped that she was not ou1

vent the worst fears in regard I'd
her safety will most probably

THE STATE CAPITOL,

The "Her0id Of Religious Liberty Of
the 3lst August, speaks in this wise Of
the manner in which the Capitol at Jeffer-
son City is kept. If this picture be a
true one-and writer in the last Metro
pcliian, in allusion 10 this subject, does
no; deny tit is high time that the guar
disns Of the States interests should set a.
bout applying suitable remedy for such
disgrsceful state of affairs. Will the
next Legislature look inio this matter?
"There is one serious drawback, which
does more TO produce an unrsvorable i'm
preston upon the minds Of visitors to-
wards Jefferson City, and the whole State,
than five times the money necessary 10
remedy il, is worth. 1his is the exceed
ing filthy condition of the State Capitol.
The magnificent exterior of the building
makes it an object of attraction 10 every
one from distance, who is merely paess
ing along the river. But what is the dis
appointment of the visitor 10 find when he
has entered the beautiful white walls, il
not dead mems bones, certainly all man.
ner Of uncleanness. That the filth Of
months and even years should be permit
ted TO accumulate without there being in.
dustry enough, ii it were even for chari-
ty, to apply brush in arrest Of the dirt
upon the floors, and cobweb on the walls,
is disgrace 10 the whole State of Mis-
souri,, and TO the people of Jefferson IN
particular. There is keeper, we were
told, whose business it is. 10 take care Of
the building 1t may not be specified in
his contract that he shall keep ii clean, but
if he kept stable for US as lie keeps the
State Capitol, he would soon be out of our
employ. The Mexican arms, also, drag
ged with so much toll from Mexico, by
our volunteers, instead of being arranged
in some part of the building where they
could be seen but not handled, are so ex-
posed TO visitors, that with the destructive
propensity common 10 all Americans, there
is reason TO expect that all that is perish
able about them will soon have disappear
