TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 2, 1858



The weather was rather too cool for the usual
gatherings at the street corners yesterday, and the
usual confabs were in some degree passed over
nevertheless, there were great crowds Of people In
the streets. Where they came from can hardly be
accounted for From the thousand evil reports re-
garding the safety of life in New Orleans it is aston
ishng that many thousands OF people viii venture
within the confines of the city How it is we can
not account for. We have never met with that indi
vidual who would not come to New Orleans a second
time. We can only say, come one, come ALL who
have habits Of industry and thrift. Business was
active the landings. Our marine register denotes
large arrivals Of produce, particularly cotton Com
munication is yet open with the Ohio river. With
St. Louis there appears to be distractions from
ice This cold snap will still further increase them
We shall have but few arrivals from sea for the
next four five days. We notice the arrival Of four
large and burhensome ships from Mobile to load for
Europe; and more than that, three or four Of the
Mobile bay steam tugs have come into the waters OF
the Mississippi to aid the towing business. This in
the number Of towboats now to about thirty
five or forty. This will do very well being an in
crease however, of only one boat per year since the
first steamboat association for towing purposes was
organized the first company having been formed
thirtysix years ago, in the year 1922 under Peter
Laurie Sloan, Andrew Lockhart and Greenberry Dor.
sey, who purchased the steamboat Postboy for the
purpose. The clerk of the boat at that time is still
living OF the stockholders there are but few remain
ing, say Mr.. Dorsey J. W. zacharie, and one or two
Others 1t will be seen how gradually and surely the
trade of New Orleans increases and will increase
long the Mississippi continues to flow towards the
| Gulf of Mexico.
The Northern mail came through yesterday with
the European mail by the Africa. The private cor
respondence is unimportant. The next steamer from
Liverpool will be the Europa, of the goth inst fo
New York. Her advices will be looked for with mucl
interest.
There are accounts in town that the ice crop
safe for the season, and that the production will
| fully equal to the consumption.

FRANCE AND ENGLAND-An i'll feeling, has arisen
between France and England in consequence Of the
demand upon the latter for the expulsion banish-
ment Of the foreign refugees who are sheltered in
England The late attempt to assassinate Napoleon
has directed attention to the foreign clques in Eng
land. Mr.. Roebuck spoke warmly in Parliament
upon the tone Of the addresses published in the
Moniteur, and Lord Palmerston replied that the
matter in that respect did not deserve serious aten
ton. 1t appears from the last advices that the Brit
ish Government had made no answer to the demands
of France in regard to the refugees. No British min
istry would venture to offend public opinion by Civ
ing them up.
