The New York Times Atlanta,

chants in this city, told me this morn
ing that, since the passage by the
Convention of the temporary ordi-
nance. prohibiting the levy of execu-
tions and sale of property, he has not
been able to collect hundred dollars,
aud that business, excepta little retail
trade, is practically dead throughout
the State. A number of agents of
Northern mercantile houses are here,
looking as black as thunder cloud.
They are not selling a dimes worth.
Compared with the present financial
condition of the State this time
last year, there was prosperity. |
never saw such inaction and such
utter want of confidence. Credit is
dead and buried. f.t.

The Times has an editorial on the

EUROPT IAN NEW :
Resolution Of the Emperor to De-
clare for the POpe-The London
Globe on NapOleOn's Policy Toward
Italy.

NEW YORK, December 26. = The
steamer City of Antwerp, with Euro
pean dates to the 18th, arrived last
night
The Paris correspondent of the
London Globe says: The resolution
of the Emperor to pronounce for tive
Pope must have been taken very
suddenly. In the speeches delivered
by the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Marquis De Moustier, both In the
Senate and Corps Legislatif, there
was nothing 70 indicate any hkeli-
mood OF Its being adopted-the con-
ciliation of Rome and Italy being the
theme he dwelt on. Italy will, of
course, become the fierce enemy of
France, and three great Powers,
whose good will his Government
seeks, and of whose forbearance he
has need-England, Prussia and Rus
sia-wIll, to some extent at least, be
estranged.
The London Globe, speaking of
Napoleon's policy towards Italy, says
His new resolution, taken by the En-
peror, will be productive of evil. 1t
will increase the unpopularity of the
Empress Espognole, as the French
people call her, as Her Majesty is
known to take very active part in
political affairs, and, like most women
OF her nation, is a very ardent Papist.
She will be held to be responsible for
what has been done already In the
Corps Legislatif as the new diplo-
macy Of the Emperor has been char
acterized as Spanish, and as in truth,
is more Spanish than French. 1t is
not surprising that the people should
ascribe it to the Espognole, who sits
on the throne. 31R 3i&saE3aW

The Trtbune's Washington special
dispatch says: A dispatch received
here within the last few days, from
the Chilian Government, order the
representatives of that Republic to
England on an important diplomatic
mission.
The rumors relative to the reduc-
ton of the regular army are entirely
unfounded. Gen. Grant will not rec
ommend any such measures. On the
contrary, he stated in his communi-
cation to the Committee on Military
Affairs, short time ago, that he did
not think reduction of the force at
the present time at all advisable.
Robert I. Lincoln, son of the late
President, arrived In town to-day,

The Heralds Washington special
says: The anticipated difficulty in
securing the appropriation of funds
consumate the purchase of the Island
of st. Thomas, appears to be not the
only obstacle in the way of the
United States perfecting the acquisi-
tioD of thatisland. From gentleman
who has arrived from St. Thomas, l
learn that as the time approaches for
the people to determine, by their suf-
frages, whether the island shall re-
main unQef the jurisdiction or Den
mark or be transferred to the United
States, the inclination to allow mat
ters to remain as they are grows
stronger This feeling is not the re-
suit of hostile sentiments towards our
Constitution, but desire to avoid
the high rates of our pert duties. =
The Russian purchase threatens to
cost US, in addition to seven million
dollars, the loss of two companies of
United States troops. Dispatches
have been received at the War Office,
within the last two days, stating that
the soldiers sent to take possession
are in most destitute condition; that
no preparation had been made for
their reception, and that the prospect
is that they will be frozen to death or
manned for life before supplies can
reach them. General Grant and Gen
eral Sherman had a consultation a
few days ago, on the subject. Gener-
al Grant stated that he had nothing
to do with the affair; that the President
ordered the troops there and he had
no authority to act.
