Chicago and Toledo,

This forest, the product Of soil of unsurpassed fertility, is gradually recedng before the lumbermen and farmers.- In many parts it has ceased to be an incnmb. rance, and has become a source of profit. Grad ually but surely the soil is coming under cul- tlvaton for the b ne6t of Toledo commerce T In 1850 Toleuo had not quite attained the size of Chicago ill 1S40, although by means of her long canals, her export trade was much groater i ,0fV Tii,c',So numbered. ered............... 4479 In 1850 Toledo numbered. yeI4 During the succeeding five years Chicago

or Hon. John Appleton, secretary of the American legation in London, in a recent let ter to the Portland (Me.) Argus, of which he is the accomplished editor, speaks of the French Emperor and Empress as follows:
 The diplomatic crops was presented to the Emperor and Empress at the French embassy yesterday, aboul 5 F. NJ. The American lega- tion had an excellent opportunity to see the dis tinguished soveregns. The Emperor received MT. Buchanan with marked cordiality. He alluded to his visit to New York, and express ed the earnest hope that America and France might remain always at peace. The hope, of course, the American Minister reciprocat- ed.
 "The Empress is certainlya a very attractive person. She has perfect self possession, pleas ing manners, and a graceful person. They both speak English, but she was once at school in England, and speaks much better English than the Emperor"

SLAVES ESCAPING TO CANADA-Canadan newspapers (says the Journal of Commerce) occasionally notice the arrival there of fugitive slaves from the United States, but generally make wry faces, such as, in medical experience, are considered premonitory symptoms of eject ment. The Toronto Colinist says:
 Large numbers of slaves continue to escape into Canida daily from the United States. One of the Detroit papers tell us that on the 18th instant no less than eighteen of them crossed the river into Canada. We fear they are com ing rather too fast for the good of the province. People may talk about the horrors of slavery as much as they choose, but fugitive slaves are by no means desirable class of immigrants fol Canada especially when they come in great numbers"
