The New York Express in referringto the advices
by the Europa thus discusses:
The aspect of things in Europe is more squally
than it has been at any period since the old
French revolution, when the Kings burst upon the
furious elements of the French Democracy, and that
Democracy, after struggling in chaos for awhile
embraced military deSpotism. We see nothing but
war ahead "a wide spread continental war, and the
worst sort of war; that is, between the OPP
posing elements of Kings and Instructions war
between a very bad kind of Conservativeism and
worse kind of Destructiveism. The old tale, there
fore, will have to be rewritten by the Historian
the Kings temporarily overhrown by the Populace
the Populace plundering the middle classes-then
the middle classes coveting any sort of despotism
for the sake of order. But, oh! that there could be
some great Popular Genius, SO tcmpering the ardor
of the People that they might be rescued from the
Despotism of an Oligarchy on one side and the
Despotism of Anarchy ON the other
The spirit of Socialism, which is now dominant in
France, is revolutionary and destructive and so
hostile to all the prejudiccs and preferences to say
nothing of the rights, of mankind, is spirit that
can never succeed beyond its hour,-and therefore
whatever temporary success it may have in France,
will be only that sort of which Anacharsis
Cleotz has had there, or Robesperre, or Danton or
other people of that k There is, nevertheless
such yearning in all Europe for political and
social organization something like ours, at least
for something better than they have, that revolution
is likely to go on till that something is either de-
monstrated to be unattanabe till relief from agi-
tation is sought for in military despotsm No relief
can be derived from what calls itself Socialism, it is
very clear, and hence it is, apprehend, that
second Bonaparte will have to appear before order is
restored.
Russia, Austria and Prussia, we see, about to
unte,-or at least their monarchs are-and such
union as that, with the existing state of parties in
France, is very likely to bring down the turbulent
elements OF France upon the coalition. England,
taught by the costly lessons of Intervention from
179S to 1915, will probably not again interiere,-and
hus the contest will be between France and her

REVIEW OF THE
B ALTIM RE M RkE EFT,
(AND INCIDENTS CONNECTED THEREwITu)
For the Week ending last eceIIiag.

REMARKS-'The transactions of the week, so
far as regards the market in general, have been on
rather restricted scae and there not that settled
and systematic of-hand method of doing business,
with fixed prices, in former days governed the
operations of buyers and sellers. And as long as
steamers arrive weekly, making half passage in
season to unsettle the market by telegraph, and
keep up an excitement until her mail arrives, and
then, before contract is otherwise than condition
ally closed, another Geographic despatch comes to
hand from another steamer, making the contract
again contingent-so long, in opinion, will bust
ness continue of dubious and unsettled character.
The steamer Europa's accounts had Just began to
have fixed effect market, when the Cam
bria sends her feelers ahead, and the market was
again Yesterday unsettled, and will remain until
her mail arrives, that operators may k'l0to whether
the telegraph was true false. Flour, Yesterday,
dull, and prices tended downward; while Indian
Corn went up in the morning to Sc cts. for white
and 60 for yellow, with sales but in the afternoon
these prices could not be obtained buyers holding
off until their letters to hand We refer to the
following remarks for correct state of the mar
ket, under circumstances, as we have been enabled
to prepare them.
AMERICAN DRY GOODS.-We have no
transactions to report except some few packages
which have been taken for foreign export.
BEESWAX.-The market is quite dull, and no
sales are making except in small lots at 21I622 cts.
BREAD-Continues in fair demand, and quo
tations remain steady.
CANDLES.-We have no alteration to note in
prces-there fair export demand for most descrip
tons.
COFFEE.-The market has continued very quiet
through the week, the transactions in Rio not
ceedng 1000 bags, at 6E974 cts, and only small
lot at the latter; and 200 bags Lagayra at 81 cts.

the week, including two cargoes amounting to about
5000 bags from Rio Janeiro, not yet entered, are
