will be Of immense advantage to Phadelp his in con
necton with the Central r DAD of Pennsylvania
There three hundred and fifty nine miles of rail
road in Michigan, viz Michigan Central Road, 22l
miles Michigan Southern, 10 miles Tecumsoh Branch
10 miles Erie and Kalamazoo, SO miles Detroit and
Pontiac, rs miles. The Southern road has recently
been purchased by company of Eastern capitalists
and it probably will be extended westward under q
new and enterprising management, to point ON Lake
Michigan, opposite Chicago 1t would then come into
competition with the Central Railroad and doubtless
divide the traffic Of that section Of country between
the two companies.

The movements in breadstus have not been so active
as for several weeks previous and the expectation Of
other articles has been more limited than usual The
views of SPECTATORS relative to the foreign demand for
our breadstus have recently undergone no material
alteration and the receipt of later intelligence is de-
sirabe, before entering into any extensive shipments
Much depends upon political Affairs in the north Of
Europe and the prospect Of receiving supplies from the
great grain growing countries of the Continent tho
event of the Danish difficulties being arranged and tho
ports of the Baltic opened the English markets will DO
better supplied with breadsus from these sections
and may look for further depression in prices but
the contrary, if the embargo continues, and the
weather in Great Britain proves unfavorable may
look for improvement in prices, and, consequently,
more active shipment from this port.
The intelligence received by the Europa had ten
dency to stien the market for breadsu and holders
anxious to make sales at prices
previous to the accounts transporting The only item
breadstufs which had improved Indian corn; but
the market steady for other descriptions and the
complexion Of things generally was such to
rage holders this side. The falling of in receipts
this port from the interior, has, doubt had ten
dency the rmness of holders and it high
ly probable that any extensive demand for export
would improve prices very materially 1t will require
advance current rates to bring out suppes and
even in the event of the European demand diminish
ing prices must improve. Producers will not forward
their products without being guaranteed remuneratng
prices, and those now ruling for flour hardly be
considered up to that point Indian pays at pre-
sent quotations. and we have doubt throughout the
season. the arrivals of this grain will be large and the
shipments to foieign ports large. The European de-
mand for Indian is entirely Independent of loca
influences and is not governed by those that
affect prices &C., for other descriptions of breadstus
We do not, therefore, look for any dminuton in the
supplies Of this article and exports will be better
maintained than could otherwise expect.
