TROUBLE IN EUROPE.

a dispatch in another column announ-
ces a critical state Of things in Europe.
At noon to-day there was no market in
London or Liverpool. Rentes are down
in Paris to enc franc Tbs King OF
Prussia has closed his parliament by a
speech that excitss distrust throughout
the country. The effect of this nsws in
this country, is general depression in
financial and commercial circles We
wish to remind our readers that this day
being Good Friday, may account for the
absence of market in London and Liv-
erpool. 1t is the custom of the English
TO observe it strictly. 1t is certain that
the French and Prussian troops are net
near each other. The state Of Napoleon's
health is the greatest bar to war,
which we think is not probable.

Innroase Of the Army.

The Radicals are urging the President
to make large increase Of the army IN
the South. He refuses. Ii is shown,
says a Washington dispatch, from nu-
merous letters, official and private, daily
received by the Administration from the
South, that the people in the Southern
States offer no obstruction to the execu-
ton Of the laws recently passed by Con-
gress. A letter received from prominent
citizen says he has been in New Orleans
for several weeks. has mixed much with
the people, and finds the most perfect
good will and feeling existing towards
the Federal Government; not the
slightest desire to oppose the admins
tration. The turbulent spirits here are
Northern men, whose aim is to produce
trouble aud get up an excitement which
may be damaging to the Government,
and make political capital for political
parties in he North 70 the injury e ;he
South The negroes are peaeeable, and
have found out that their best friends

Registers Of Bankruptcy

WASHINGTON, April l6-The Marshal
of the Supreme Court, by direction OF
the Chief Justice, has half dozen men
arranging and examining applications
for appointments as registers of bank
rup,cy. For the two hundred and fifty

already four thousand applications; one
hundred and twenty-five from New York
city alone. The nominations will be
made by States, first taking those in
which the chief commercial cGnters are
situated Mr.. Chase hopes to begin the
examination of applications from New
York next week, and make the appoint

FROM WASHINGTON.

wAsHISeroS, April l9.-The Military
Board of SequestratiOn at Richmond
Va, have appointed over one hundred
agents. Applications for these offices
are coming in slowly. 1t is said that a
number of the boards will have to be
composed altogether of military officers
and agents of the Freedmen's Bureau.
There will be about two hundred and
fifty registered boards in the State, and
about eight hundred Offices.
Extracts from testimony, given before
the Judiciary Committee Of the House
of Representatives, relative to the arrest
Of John H. Surrait, whose trial is ex-
peeled to take place next June, seems,
from evidence given by DR.. Mcmillan,
that Surratt was ignorant Of the conspi-
rasy to assassinate President Lincoln,
though partly to the plot to adjust him.
Attorney General Stanberry is said to
have remarked to the District Attorney
recently that Jefferson Davis must be
disposed of during the coming term of
the Circuit Court of the United States,
which meets at Richmond on the first
Monday in May.
A Richmond special says the State Re
publican Convention met at that city yes
terday for the purpose of forming Re-
publican party in that State The ma
jority of the delegates were negroes.
Hunnicutt and several negro speakers
addressed the meeting. A permanent
organization was agreed upon, and off.
GERS elected.
A Montreal special says it is reported
that three reform members of the Gov
eminent, Messrs. Blair, Dougal and How
land, are going to resign, in order that
they may be free to follow the policy of
the new reform party in Canada West.

Terrible suffering IN the West,

ST. JOSEPH, April l6.-News from the
West is meager. A company of soldiers
from Fort Laramie recently arrived at
Fort Saunders, after terrible and la
borioas trip through the Cheyenne Pass,
where, for many miles, the men were
obliged to dig their way through 20 feet
depth of snow. The men we're badly
frozen, many Of them being as black
as negroes. They represent that the
garrison at Fort Laramie are suffering
considerably from scurvy. Tho CHEYENNE
Pass is the one chosen for the Union
Pacific railroad
The stock of the Overland Stage Com
pany is suffering from malady, believed
to be CHAMBERS, and much oft is dying
at the various stations.

SUPREME COURT.

Washington dispatch gives this eI
cu.e for the return of the writs issued by
the Supreme Court, so late as December
They could not be made returnable
earlier, because a rule of the court al
lows sixty days for returns to writs IN
such cases, and an adjournment of the
court will intervene. The case, there
fore necessarily lies over till next term,
and is so delayed usque ad.
1t is probable that the business of the
military commanders will be pretty vel
over before December. Under this state
of the case, no relief need be expected
from the Court.

The Petersburg (Va.) Inde@ relates
the following: During his speech in

night, Senator Wilson remarked that si1
hundred and twenty-five battles had been
fought in the late war He pathetically
added that three hundred and twenty
FIVE thousand Union soldiers had lost
