against Gov Stewart and his abettors is
very great, and hanging and burning in

CIV Finnnc es.

We publish to-day statement of he
financial affairs of the City, which will be
matter of great interest to the readers Of
our Daily-perhaps more SO than any thing
else we could present them. The space oc-
cupied we consider well filled.
The statement is. we imagine, the most
satisfactory that has been given for years,
and throws a flood Of light upon our muni-
cipal concerns.
Mayor BAKER, in giving this exhibit, de-
serves great credit. His administration
taken as a whole, is signalized by consum-
mate tact and financial ability.

BS2y- A highly favorable article from the
Baltimore Patriot, regarding Hon. EDWARD
BATEs's position as defined by his late letter,
which article we intended to publish in
yesterdays Daily, has been uuaccountably
mislaid. We regret this, as the article al
luded to was calculated to do Mr.. BATES a
vast deal of good, coming, as it did, from a
conservative Southern paper, of first class
ability. The PATRIOT in the said article,
professed itself entirely satisfied with Mr..
BATEs's views and said that the entire Oppo-
sitiou Of the country, North and South,
ought to unite on him for the Presidency.

Leeds, Hull Belfast and Gloucester on the proposed
exemption OF private property from capture in
time OF war, had interview with ViscOunt Pamers-
ton on the evening Of the Sd of February. Lord Pal
meston said that he would not fater the depu alton
by protesting to agree with them He considered that
the very existence of this country depended upon its
possessing the command of the seas and that il was nee
esry for that object to retain the power of sezng the
ships and especially the seamen navigating the ships
OF foreign Powers. War was enormous evil but still
was sometimes necessary to to in self defence
and naval Power like England ought to surrender
any means of weakening her enemies at sea. If
we dd not seze their seaen board their merchant
vessels We would have to fight them on board their
ships Of war. He denied that private property was
spared IN war on land any more than in war at sea.
On the contrary, armies in enemy's country took
whatever they wanted desired without the slightest
regard to the rights Of property, as we should find to
our cost If hostile army should succeed in land
ing in this country.
