LONDON July 13.-As already predicted, the
Emperor to-day yields to the demands of the
Legislative Assembly. 1t is further stated that
at present no change will be made in the minis
try, but reorganization of the cabinet is certain
to occur, and that shortly. Throughout the crisis
the Emperor's peculiar shrewdness was obser-
vable. He has now invited nearly all the depu-
ties to st. Cloud to join in a dinner and soiree,
to come off during the present week; he has
chatted playfully with many of the deputies of
all shades of opinions, saying many piquant
things so attractive to Frenchmen.
To one, by whom the Emperor was button
holed he said, "Ah, monsieur, the buffet is near;
you mean to take hold of my coat in case
might pull you back"
To several others he said:-"You begin to
treat me as the old lion in the fable, in trying to
cut my nails, take out my teeth, and leave me
with nothing but my name, which is considered
harmless" To number of others he said
"The elections have proven clearly that you
must choose between the empire and revolu-
tiOn-between neither system individuals can be
set up"
To another party he thus addressed himself
81 will give full satisfaction and accede to
the liberal aspirations of all parties, but /
have decided to stop at constitutional bounda-
ries.'
While the Emperors conduct for the past few
days has been considered adroit, it must not be
considered to have stopped the agitation for
further concessions in the way of reforms.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OFFICE, WASHINGTON,
July ~, 1869.-Ion. George s. Boutwell,, Secre-
tary of the Treasury-Sir:-By your letter of
the 25th of June, 1869, you submit to me the
consideration of the eleventh section of the act
of CongressSenttled "An act to aid in the con-
struction of a railroad and telegraph line from
the Missouri river the Pacific Ocean, and to
secure to the Government the use of the same
for postal, military, and other purposes" ap-
proved July l. 1862, in which it was provided
that no more than fifty thousand dollars of said
bonds, for $1,000 each, shall be issued
under this act, to aid in constructing the main
line of railroad and telegraph, and request me
to give you my opinion as to what constitutes
the main line of said railroad and telegraph, in
ulCaIlnS Jne point OF ltS commencement on the
east and of its termination on the west. I have
given the question careful consideration, and
am of the opinion that by the true construction
of the statute referred to- the main line of the
Pacific Railroad intended in the eleventh Sec
ton thereof commences at the one hundredth
meridian, longitude west from Greenwich, and
terminates at the eastern boundaries of the State
of California. Very respectfully, your obedient

The following extracts show the state of the New
York money market yesterday
From the Herald.
''The week opened with very strong and buoyant
market in Wall street, the easy feeling prevailing at
the close OF business on Saturday having become
decidedly cheerful and leading to an upward turn in
the values Of the leading speculative securities The
Washington despatch announcing that the Secretary
of the Treasury would purchase three millions OF
bonds on the remaining Wednesdays OF the month
was primarily the occasion OF this revival Of the
speculative feeling for rise. II was not known at
first whether these purchases were TO supersede or
to be supplemental to the original plan OF buying
million every other week, the notice at the door Of
the Sub-Treasury merely confirming what was given
in the newspaper dispatches. But General Butter
field telegraphed to Washington for fuller informa-
ton, and soon after prepared the following:-
"By direction of the Secretary of the Treasury the
Treasury will purchase each wednesday Of the present
purchase S9OOOO0 of bonds during the remainder of
July Proposals will be received and the purchase made
upon the general conditions heretofore the proposals
being opened at twelve o'clock Wednesdays.

of bonds will be held subject to future action of Congress-
