CITY ITEMS.

STREET OpErISG.-Of late parties interested in
street openings are getting quite begeren The con-
6rma0n Of the bill of costs in two ut least will
be resisted Ffty-eighth street from Fifth avenue TO
the East River has been "opened," and SOS awarded
TO property owners for land taken. The charge for
transferring this 500 worth of property from private
individuals the Corporation foOs up ,3S1. Eighty
first street from Third to Fifth avenue, two blocks was
opened and fee dollars damages awarded for which
the Commissioners bring in bill of $3.50 96 The
opening OF Seventy-sxth street from Eighth avenue to
Hudson River costs s5,393 1t will be remembered
that these streets are only "opened on paper, no
manual labor having been performed them.
The Board appointed to make assessments for regu-
latiDg streets, constructing sewers, &c.. consists Of
three persons at salary Of 900 each. To this add
the salary OF clerk, 81 ,00O and we have a. 900 as
the expense per annum 1t is affirmed that this Board
really performs labor than the various Commits
sioners for street openings aud it is thought that such
Board for opening streets would, in its workings,
take heavy load of assessments from property owners
and that the interests of the city in other respects
would be- at least rs well attended TO as under the
present arrangement A liberal estimate of the ex-
pense would be:
Commissioners and elk Statonery...'''..''''" sSSo
Sloe 900 Bill posting ......'..' $40
Room rent, ............ 500 SIS, eco
If there were 30 street openings in year, this would
make on average cost of $3.50 per opening Add to this
margin for advertising, it would bring it up to 81 oOo
each. Under the present system, the charges are
shamefully exhorbitant. On the Fifty'eghth street
job, the Surveyor puts in bill of 81, 500 Atdavts
have been made by good engineers, that $500 would
we'll pay for the work. In the same bill is charge OF
sE6 for posting notices. Is it not high time that prop
erty owners were relieved from the operations OF this
swindIing system.

The Trent AHaIr.

In the telegraphic news from The East,
published in our colums to-day, arc a num-
ber of items relative to the arrest of Slidell
and Mason, on board The British mail stea-
mer Trent. II appears that our Government
has received an official communication from
England on the subject, but nothing is
known as to the character of the cOmmuni-
cation. The latest dispatch says that the
Cabinet have resolved to release the rebel
Commissioner, and that an order had been
issued to take them to Halifax. We do not
think any order of tbe kind has been made;
for there is every reason to believe, that The
President and bis Cabinet, Congress and the
people generally, rather than surrender the
Commissioners on the demand Of the Brit.
ish Ministry, would hazard war with that
power. One dispatch Gays the President
was to have sent message to the Senate,
on the 10th, instant. on The subject of our
relations with Great Britain, but we have
Congressional proceedings up TO the 2Sd.
and no mention is made of such a commu-
nicatioD.
From the tenor of the dispatches, and the
known proclivities of the English aristo.
cracy towards the rebels, it is not improba-
BILE that lhe British Ministry will take ad'
vantage Of the FIRST prelext that offers to
declare war against the United States.

FROM SA0RAMENTo.-Mr Foster, the ex.
press messenger Of Welles, Fargo Il Co,
arrived in Nevada yesterday from Sacra.

day, but no papers except one copy of the
Sacramento Union. The roads are In hor-
rible condition, and ii will probably be some
days before direct communication with Sac
ramentO is resumed. BY way of Marysville,
we learn that Sacramento was again par.
TALLY flooded on Monday night aud Tues
day, but the people we're prepared for the
food, aud the damage was triHing. Mr..
Foster started for Sacramento again, this
morning, with express matter. He goes by
way Of Marysvihe, and will return as soon
as he can make the trip.

STAGE ACCIDENT-.We mentioned in our
last, that the stage running from Marysvil!e
to Oroville was swept away while crossing a
slough near the former place, and one pas
senger drowned. II seems that while the
team was crossing the slough the forward
wheels became uncoupled, and the stage
Immediately capsized. There were three
passengers in the stage, German aud two
Chinamen, and one of the latter was drown
ed. The stage was carried down the stream,
and lost.
