The Express says Of the great financial
panic In Europe The matters for some
such explosion had been gradually accumu-
lating in all the great financial and com
merclal centers for some time past yet the
spark that finally produced the catastrophe
turns out to have been speech from the
Emperor Napoleon on subsidy, May @, to
the working-men and farmers of Auxerre,
OF character to almost justify the con-
clusion that the recent professions of neu-
trality in the impending German war pro-
fessed by M. Rouher, Minister of State, are
not meant 10 be kept.

eE Mr.. PIKE of Cincinnati, on Monday
last, made proposition to public meeting
of citizens, that he would rebuild his Opera
House, within one year of the night of the
destruction of the late one, and with even
more elegance, on the condition that one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth
Of tickets, good for the first year, are taken
at once, No definite conclusion was reach
ed by the gentlemen who met to talk on the
subject. This would require cash SUBJ

FIRE ALARM.-The alarm of fire this

the property in the vicinity was in no way
endangered.
About the same time, the hub and spoke
factory Of Zwick q Bookwalter, corner OF
Third and Wayne streets, caught fire, but
the flames were soon extinguished without
material damage to the premises.
