the standing order, while the Emperor affects an
immense Zeal in trying experiments with the new

INFO On appeodage of the line. With such clouds
visible on the horizon of Europe, msy feel as
tSDsbed at the comparatively inconsiderable de-
cline in the S.otstions Of the Loudon Stock Elk
change, which generally indicates the pulsstions of
EnIopesn society more exactly than the monetary
obsrvstorss of Paris and the rest Of the Continent
In the fret instance the shire Nd observers OF the
LsDdon Stock Exchange we're not quite averse to
considering Nspoleon's New. Years freak a mere
stocl jobbiDg haneuver on the part Of their august
ally. ID fast the French securities oace sent
dowD, people rushed hcadlODg into Baalo tempie TO
gel nd Of the publlc debt, Credit Moeer and rail-
wsy .bares for whatever they would fetch. Then
spe custors for rise being done for, there
followed all ut once, tho 9Th Of January, slight
rally on the Paris Bourse, in consequence OF the
rumor set sfoat to tho effect that Government
note in the Moaitear was to take out the sting of
"his Nsjestys" spostrophe TO the Austrian Minis
ter. Such note, indeed made ia appearance on
Friday, Jan. 2; then the funds went up, and lot
Of fellows known to be- familisrs of the Tullerles,
realised on that very Friday extraordinary profits.
Thus these gentlemen reimbursed themselves for
the e1 peuses of their NeS-Years presents, in the
cheapest way possible. Nov, it seems that sim.
liar conspiracy bre~ipg a. Londoo, was baflcd
not by any uncommon shre~dness on tne part OF
the British monetary mind, but By its secret sway
over some of the financial managers of the Elysean
uesus piaisirs. However, the comparative steadi-
ness of the British securities is principally due to
another circumstance less fa,tering to Louis Napo-
leon but more characteristic of the state of E1rope.
No copfessor knows more exactly the vulnerable
parts Of fair penitent's heart than do the hard
ca,h men of Chapel street, Lombard street and
Threadneedle street know where the shoe pinches
the European potentstes. They know that Rdssia
wants loan Of about ten millions sterling; that
France, despite the prospective surplus OF budget,
always corrugated in the future tense, is badly 10
want of money; that Austfis is looking out for al
iastapent Of at least six eight millions sterling;
hat little Sardinia is eager for loan, not only TO
undertake Q new italian crusade but to pay the
old debts contracted through the Crimean war;
and that altogether bills 10 the amount Of thirty
millions sterling must be drawn by the crown.
bearers and sword-bearers, upon the English purse,
beisre armies can move, blood be let, and the
boisteious voice Of cannon roar. Now, to run
through all these monetary transactions, two
months respite at least is required; SO that, quite
apart from military considerations, if there is to be
war, it must be delayed until Spring.
Yet il would be great mistake to rush to the
conclusion that BY their dependence on the good
pleasure Of pesce.lovins capitalists, the SarhOunds
will certainly be prevented from breaking loose
With the rate Of interest ranging hardly at "A per
cent, with more toan forty millions OF gold stag
! nsiipg in the vaults Of the Banks of England and
France, and with general distrust In commercial
speculation Satan himself il he were to open loan
for new campaign, would, after some prudish dc.
laws and few ssnctimonious conferences, succeed
in selling his scrip at premium.
The circumstances which may put of the Eu.
ropesn war are the very same circumstances which
push on to such an issue. After her splendid dip
Iomatic successes in Ass, Rdssis is anxious to
recover her prodomnance in Europe. 10 fact, as
little Sar6inias throne-speech was revised at Paris

Was only the echo Of wltchword Indicated at St.
Petersburg With France and Sardinia in the lead.
