The speedy recall Of the French troops from
Mexico becomes more and more certain. The
Paris correspondent Of The London Times states
that at the last council Of the Ministers, all or
nearly all of them were for speedy recall, and
that the Emperor only in so far disagreed from
them as to prefer waiting for the time when the
Emperor of Austria should be prepared to keep
his brother on the throne. Guizot has also come
out for the speedy withdrawal. No public man
is found to attempt defense of the Mexican
expedition, save Lamartine, the Beggar.

TIE CURRENCY.

The InAationsts are joyous. They believe
they have cornered Resumption in the House
Committee of Ways and Means, SO that they
can sell their boarded Flour, Pork, Coal, &c,
&C., at such prices as their consciences ~ VIII
allow them to charge. So the premium on Hold
begins to stiffen, and every form OF gamplne
with the life.blood of industry and the oreau
of the widow and the orphan reckons with con-
fdence on high old time.
They may miss it yet-we trust they WILL
but, for the moment, they have the non-specu'
laiing public at Disadvantage. Backed by
the strong Importing interest. which sells
RAPIDLY and at large profits when the Currency
is in a thoroughly gaseous state; the National
Banks, which find or fancy redceming their
notes in paper more profitable than paying them
in coin; and the folly of those who realize that
they now sell their Labor or Produce at high
prices, and forget that they pay like high prices
for everything they buy-then Inhationists seem
for the moment to have the inside track. 1t is
said that the Committee will not report Mr..
McCulloch's bill. If not, We shall know
exactly what they mean, and shall try to
have Others understand it,
The Erening Post recently proposed that
Congress should authorize the Secretary to
fund the Certificates of Indebtedness, Seven
Thirties, and Interest Notes, but not the
Greenbaeks. Yet it knows perfectly that
only through the funding of the Greenbacks can
We retnrn to Specie Payments. While Seven
or Eight Hundred Millions Of these remain
afloat Initiation is fixed fact. To fund the
Greenbacks is'the indispensable prerequisite of
Resumption.
swell, redeem them" says one; "but let
the process be gradral."-So it will be, whether
we would OF would not have it SO. The Secre-
tary must collect One Million Dollars per day
to keep his chin above water: do you fear that
he can contract the Currency in fash If he
would. or would if he could If Greenbacks
should become too scarce and dear, they would
not be funded. even if he should wish to fund
them. Why is not this understood 7
Let us begin forthwith to fund our Green
backs and thus contract our Currency; if we do
not it will be contracted, or else destroyed,
BY commercial commissioners they say, a
"panic." Prices are too high; importations
are excessive; cities are crowded and city rents
exorbitant; while the rural districts are COM
paratively deserted. These are elements or
phases of state of things that cannot endure.
Sooner or later it inevitably digs its own grave.
Let us be wise and. foreseeing, avert the storm
which must otherwise sweep over our country.
Let US turn from imitation and speculation to
honest dollars and productive labor.

The Police Gazette of this week NAL

The Police Gazette of this week makes an
ample apology tn Mr.. Stewart for the libelous
article published by 1t last Saturday. 1t asserts
that the person alluded to in that article was

declares she intended to describe character
that no one could apply to himself, as it was
no part Of his design to injure even those who
were the actual visitants of the lady in ques-
tion." Had he gone O little further and de-.
clared Depau Row an imaginary block Of

oath that he did not mean Mr.. Stewart, and Tie

In addition to the many burdens imposed
upon New.Ycrk, the good old town managed to
pay the Internal Revenue Department during
the year 1865 the sum of S37, 156,4Il So. This
was about twice as much as was paid last year,
and about five times the amount of the tax Of
