near Dunsmore & Chambers lumber office,
and started up Oak Street towards the Gas
Works, at $40 speed, running against
and over piles of lumber, smashing and
throwing fragments Of the wagon around
promiscuously. They ran without regard to
curves or angles with part of the broken
shaft, and the two remaining wheels, until
they brought up against loaded wagon
near the corner of Chestnut and Third ST..
when they turnel somersault through the
harness and came to dead lay still. The
horses were severely cut in several places
by the broken shaft, and the only wonder is
that they were not killed. Mr.. Meader was
considerably, though not seriously, injured
in attempting to stop them; the horses ane

"Malakof," the intelligent and trustworthy
Pairs Correspondent ofthe N. Y. Times makes
the following important statement in his last
letter.
The persistent and apparently concerted
manner in which the English papers have
endcavored to discourage their people from
investing their money in the loan has not
escaped the attention Of the French, nor
failed 10 excite their surprise, and few
days ago leading French banker asked an
American diplomat the explanation of this
singular course of the London journals.
The matter was explained as well as the in
terrogated party knew how, and then the
banker said that the subject of the
loan had been discussed among the leading
bankers of Paris and if the American gov
ernmcnt desired it, as much of the loan as
they wished would be taken in Pairs, even
to the whole sum of five hundred millions.
He said that even if there was separation
between the North and South, there would
still remain at the North O nation Of twenty
millions of the most productive people in the
world, and he considered u loan ut I per
cent, given out by such people, the most
brilliant operation that had been offered TO
the financial world for long time.

"The Peace Feeling OF the NOrth"-The
Hope OF the Southern Leaders.

The following from the Mobile Advertiser oil
tie 24th ult, shows how the rebels look upon
he "peace" talk at the North, and with what
loPe they look to it to effect decentralization
Of Northern sentiment
Our leaders may esteem it the wiser poll
cy to let the peace feeling of the North &C.
cumulate its strength, and the Lincoln ad-
ministration languish under financial impedi-
ments and popular diSfaVor, while it is
making those constant and abortive efforts
to strengthen its arms which only betrays
its weakness. Thus battle in our favor is
decided every day, and without blow from
US. With panic stricken apprehensions the
Lincoln administration daily speculate upon
the chances cf all attack on Washington,
aud call for aid To which no patriotic le
gons respond. The leaven is working, aud
without blow from us we may yet see them
abandon their seat OF government, after ex.
hausting themselves 10 futile efforts to
place its defence beyound per adventure
of risk.
