The State of EurOnr.

Mr.. Bigclow Of the New York Eve.
ming Post, in writing from Paris,
makes the following comments on the
state of affairs in Europe:
No doubt every effort will be made
by the powers most interested i'll pre-
serving peace, to prevent an actual
| trial of strength between the French
and Austrian Empcrors in the field.
France has everything to gain by this
war, if successful, and Europe every
thing to lose. Should Napoleon drive
Austria ont Of Italy, it gives him the
control of the Mediterranean, which,
in the present division Of political
forces in Europe and Asia, would give
France naval and maritime advanta-
ges of incalcula bic Importance. Time
was when the merchants Of Genoa,
Venice and Lcghorn did most OF the
carrying trade Of the world, and "a
Tuscan shipowncr sustained the Brit,
ish crown by loans which no other
man in Europe was rich enough to
make.
There is no reason, in the nature OF
things, why Italy should not again be
the seat of commerce as extensive as
Great Britain's is now, for she has
more seacoast and more, good harbOrs
than England, Ireland and Scotland
together. To have the building up OF
such a trade, to divide its profits as IA
compensation for defending it, consti-
tutes a temptation which addresses
itself to no power SO strongly at pres
ent as TO France. Her Italian com
mcrcc is already enormous it is build
ing up Marscilles almost like cnchaut-
ment; the Mediterranean swarms with
French steamers, and every dockyard
is constantly engaged in building new
ones. To prevent the commercial alb
sorption Of Italy by France, (which
would naturally result from Napoleon
becoming the successful champion of
Italian independence, England will be
likely to neglect no efforts, while those
nations most interested in preserving
the balance Of power in Europe will
be equally concerned to prevent the
French eagles swelling much beyond
its present gigantic proportions.

BRIDGE MEErING.--At the bridge meet
ing last Saturday some GO or 20 per-
sons were present from different parts
of the county, and quite an interest
was manifested in the subject under
consideration. Committees were ap-
pointed in the several towns in the
county, whose duty it is TO see that
their towns are represented at an ad-
journcd meeting to be held IN St
Charles City, on Saturday, July I'd, at
1 o'clock p. NJ. We hope our citizens
generally will be present at that
meeting, and that they will come pre-
pared to take some action which will
result in giving us bridges that will
do away with fording, swimming and
ferrying cur rivers at the risk Of life
Since the above was in type the
Secretary has furnished us with re-
port of the bridge meeting, which we

were agreeably surprised by finding
at their doors q nice smoked ham,

bestowed, was Of course gratefully
received, and used, not unmindiul Of
the liberal but unknown givcr. Sub
scqucnt Investigations have, however,
led to a discovery of the source from
whence they came. On the evening
previous to the distribution Of the ba-
con, a corresponding number of hams
were stolen from the Steward of the
State University and it is now es-
tablshed that the students made the
donation. These facts, however, came

Digging for gold is now prosecuted
in some places in Vermont. At Plym.
outh in that State, about forty men
are engaged in the work. a letter
in the Bellows Falls Times says that
sluiccs are being erected along the
streams at intervals, for the distance
of about four miles, the most northern
being near the north line of the town,
on Gold Creek, tributary of the OF

! CHURCH ORGANIZATION At FLoYD.-A
congregational Church composed Of
eleven members was organized at
/ Floyd, last Sabbath afternoon.
The services were shared by Rev,
T. s. LaDue Of Rockford, and Rev. J II
Windsor of St. Charles City. After the
organization was completed, the com
munion of the Lords Supper was OBJ
served in company with large dele
cation from the church at St. Charles,
which rendered the season one of. pc
culiar interest. The services through
out the day were attended by large
audiences, and those of the afternoon,
which were somewhat protracted,
were marked with unusual solemnity.
The day will be long remembered by
many as one of the most hallowed and
precious seasons of their lives.
Con-
