OF JAS. Greene was reelected Secre.

on Thursday. We are told by gentle
man who had occasion to examine them
that the books and accounts of the road
are in most excellent condition, exhib.
ting in a clear manner all the financial
operations of the Company and its pres.
ent pecuniary condition. The road i:
said to be without any floating debt
which is a remarkable circumstance for I
road under construction. The manage
ment Of the principal Office of the Com

OF Claims to the amount Of nearly
$500 have boen presented to the City
Council for damages done to the property
in the houses "washed out" by tho Fire
Companies some ten or twelve days
since. We observe in the bills present
ed, that each house had large stock oil
liquors on hand, which constitute the
principal items in the claims. The Coun-
Gil laid the subject promptly on the table
without deigning to debate the subject.
Suits against the city are threatened as
q consequence.

" A large. four story brick store in
st. Louis. occupied by wine and liquor
dealer, fell at midnight on Thursday,
with . crash, into perfect ruin. A gen.
tleman standing near says the first warn
ing was q quick cracking, and looking up
he saw in the wall of the building q sud-
den opening along the line of the fourth
floor, which, while he ran, was instantly
succeeded by the descent Of the whole
wall, from the cornice to the pavement.
Five persons, were in the building, who
were baried in the ruins. They were all
severely injured. and at first were sup
posed to be MORALLY hurt; but hopes are
now entertained they will all recover
The building was eight or nine years old
and badly built, and the immediate cause
of the accident was the overlooking thu
upper stories with heavy stock Of wine
and liquors.

The Slave Trade.

The contract Of the French Govern
ment for the transportation of 10000
blacks from the coast Of Africa to Mar
Unique and Guadalupe has been pub
lished, and proves to be all that it was
represented. 1t is an open attempt to
take negroes from the coast of Africa, on
any terms they can be procured by the
contractors, for which the shippers are
to receive for each adult landed 800, and
the victim is to be let out for ten years
to a master who is to pay two dollars
and fifty cents per month, or $50 per an
mum as wages, of which 40 cents per
month, or SIS per year, is to be withheld,
and paid to remunerate the cost of his
passage. They are-we presume--to
feed and cloth themselves ON the re-
naming S25, and finally to pay Their
return passage to Africa, il they ever gel
. chance to 60. The contract is signed
by the French Minister of Marine. wht
says it is an experimental adventure
which, if it works well, will be reduced t
a sytem, or abandoned if it fails. 1t il
the most abhorrent form that SLAYER,
can assume, depriving the master of al
interest in the slave or his progeny. I'm
der this system the powers of enduranc
would be calculated for ten years an,
the tasks imposed to use him up in tina
period; and as the birth of childre
would be tax without benefit, the,
would soon be put out Of the way a
they appeared, should they be generate
at all.
1t is very evident from the coincident &C
ton ard discussion on this subject in Madris
Paris and London, that it Is combined po
icy on the part of the three government
and Louis Napolean has fitted out the fir
expedition, which Palmerston's organ-tl
London Post-announces is only an expert
mental one. 1t adds, in substance, thas
the experiment succeeds. the government wi
take enclosures for establishing a free pa,
senger traffic between the coast of AfriS
and the West Indies"

Railroad. from Mound City to GRANVILLE,
met the citizens Of GRANVILLE twice last
week ct meetings called in that town, to
take measures TO secure . liberal sub
scriP6on to the stock. Eight or nine
thousand dollars Of it was taken. on
which five per cent. was paid down. 1t
is supposed White county will take
$4,000. As soon as that amount is sub
scribed the officers promise to commence
grading from Gray silles. The report oil
the. engineers is most favorable, and q
very liberal disposition has been mani
tested along the line to aid BY generous
subscriptions to the stock. Mr.. d. H.
Kennedy, Of the Evansville Straight
Line Railroad, has addressed lette,
proposing to some of the leading citizens
Of GRANVILLE and to the farmers along
the line to meet them, to consider the
cost of building railroad from Evans
vile to GRANVILLE. Mr.. Kennedy tell
the farmers on the route that they coulc
build the road and increase the value O
all the lands within five miles of til,
linestwice or three times the cost of tn,
road. They would make money if the.
should sink every dollar of the slock.
