BALTIMORE, Sept. 10.-P. NJ.
The enterprise of establishing line Of steam
ers to Europe, is sgoih being terminated. This
project, started pretty vigorously last spring, was
permitted TO slumberduring the MIDSUMMER months
Now since most of our capitalists and merchants

it is again being agilated, aud will be vigorously
pushed forward, no doubt with success. To Balti-
more it is all important. The Savannah line Of
steamers is meeting with substantial encourage
ment Quite respectable amountl has alread
been subscribed. Much is due to the energy of
Mr.. Baylor, editor of the American Times and
Cotton Plant, for his active part in this desirable
enterprise.
Our city continues very healthy. We have had
twenty-four hours of ineessant rain. The atmos-
phere more cool.
Business has been unusually active this week.
About one million of dollars has changed hands,
for Breadstuffs, Coffee. Sugars, Provisions and
Tobacco. The sales of coffee reached 10000 bags
since Saturday last, which realized the handsome
sum of $3.50 900. Rio closed firm to-day at lilac;
which is II els. per ID. advance within week,
stock on hand A, 600 bags. Sugars are fully 40
per lib higher. In all departments of tale there
is renewed energy and activity, with cheering
prospects in future. Our city is thIonged with
merchants from the South and West
More confidence has been given to the money
market. by the recent advance in prices.
Flour is more finn at Sc. Wheat, fred 12Sal21;

who escaped from the school of the Academy of
Visitation, was married this morning to MIR. Jor-
dom one of the proprietors of the Jordan Virgin
ia) Springs; the Rev. W. Mclean performing the
hymenial ceremony after another minister had de-
clined to officiate, for fear Of a lawsuit. The
stepfather, who had been telegraphed to return to
the city, arrived here two hours subseqent to the
"tying of the knot" It was then too late, of
course, to exercise the veto power. The lady,
who is represented to be only fifteen years Of age,
had been 10 the Springs with her mother and step
father. Before they started for their home in MIS-
sisSippi, they replaced her at the Visitation as
scholar; but having given her heart and hand to1
Mr.. Jordan. before leaving the watering place. she
resolved no longer TO be pupil but a wife, and
hence Der escape from the Academy. The for
