BASKs are often denounced as monopolics,
and aristocratic institutions, comforting Pc
euliar privileges on one class above another.
In New Orleans the class seems to be limited
to favored few. BY the report Of the Bank
commissioners of Louisiana, it appears that
log Directors Of the BanSs in New Orleans
have loaned to themselves one third of the
all capitals Of the Banks which they manage;
according to the ratio of distributing bank
favors 3lsindividuals, in population 200, 900
would have the entire use of the capitals and
all the advantages conferred by the exclusive
privileges of Bank charters.

TIE ENGLISH MINISTRY The fall Of Lord
Palmerston, wEo has directed the foreign
policy of England for more than twenty years
is an important event. The new ministry is
highly conservative and anti Galican. The
change will be unfavorable for Louis Ma
polson, and will dissolve probably the cordial
alliance between England and France. The
new cabinet will introduce, it is to be hoped,
more cordial, frank and sincere diplomat
&c intercourse with this country, in regard to
the commercial and political interests which
both countries have in the South American
States.

BusISEss OF NEW ORLEAxs.-There is q
striking exemplidcation in the condition Of
New Orleans that the increase of shipping
business-the concentration OF trade in tran
atu-will net alone build up large city,
and give permanent and increasing value to
its real estate. New Orleans has neglected
her mechanics and manufacturer, and not
withstanding. the increase Of her commercial
business, her real estate has for several years
been stationary, and in many parts Of the
city, declining. The following extract Of a
letter tells only the truth.
The local trade Of the city continues very
dull. New Orleans has become and is u
grand receiving and forwarding depot
There is no doubt but this year will show the
largest amount of business ever done in that
line. Produce is received here in enormous
quantities to be sold or sent off. This gives
employment 10 the steamers which bring il
the commission merchants to sell 1.-THE
draymen to transfer it, and the vessel to car
~ il away, and tells for so much; but the
business in New Orleans Of that class Of poo
pie who rent large stores at big rents, keeI
clerks, pay heavy license and taxes. and kee!
large stock Of goods on hand to job Off
the business Of this character has sadly faller
of from what il once was in New Orleans, u,
| is evidenced from the great number Of larg
stores now closed with bills on to rent with
| in stone throw OF Poydras street, the Crane
leading thoroughfare Of the produce line
| stores which once were good locations ant
commanded tenants ut $4,000 per annum.-
Very little Of the produce received here nov
goes into public warehouses;; those who kee
stores Tor this purpose haze been losini
money the past six months.
| There is in this statement q valuable ad
monition to Evansville. Our forw ardin
business is large-it gives activity to Gu
streets and lines our wharf with steamer,
and the city is deeply indebted to the com
mission houses whose industry and enter
prise has brought large amount Of IL TO Oh
city, but we must effect that although
makes a show, it does not leave behind it, s
large and substantial gain, as single factc
ny, machine shop, or u rolling mill.

.9J- The origin of the fire in Messrs.

~ The origin of the fire in Messrs.
Gavisk & Co.'s smoke house, is unaccounted
for. The room was built with great care to
render it perfectly fire-proof. There was ap-
parently no way by which fire could be COM
municated to the meat, yet when it was first
discovered the whole collection of meat, hung
in tiers from the bottom to the top Of the
house, was in blaze. Does not the process
Of smoking bacon in such large masses in q
confined house, evolve gas that may, by
being confined and condensed, become in
famable!
