a CORRESPONDENT of the Register,
arguing against the building of a bridge
on Market street, over Wheeling Creek,
at the expense of the city, makes the
following statement concerning the
financial condition OF the city:
We owe large sums of money, much
of it due, for which we are liable to
have property levied upon at any day
to pay. I learn that the City Treasurer
is overchecked in bank to the extend OF
twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars;
that we owe certificates OF loan long
overdue to the extent of $4,000; that
city drafts are hawked about the streets
at heavy discounts, and that $3.50, 600 or
more of the city debt must be paid in
two 10 four years, and that no way
seems open to get the money except by
borrowing at high rates of interest. 1
understand that it is now seriously
proposed to make new loan at 9 per
cent per annum.
1 understand that all OF our Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad stock, which
was our most productive asset, has been
sold; all of our bridge stock is gone,
and we have nothing now TO rely upon
except direct taxation.

Direct Trade with Europe.
ST. LOUIS, June 8.
Two very interesting papers were
read at the Board of Trade meeting last
night, showing the practicability of a
direct trade between st. Louis and for
eign ports during a large portion OF tn :
year by light draft propellers. Figuree
were produced to show that such vess
sells could navigate the river cheaper
than barges. Resolutions were adopt
ed recommending the Rockford, Rock
Island and st. Louis Railroad to the ia
vorable consideration of st. Louis, and
urging them to subscribe to the project,

THE New York Post in an article on
the recent French elections expresses
these decided opinions:
The opposition to Napoleon In France
is no longer parliamentary opposition.
Its Representatives are no longer such
men as Theirs, Olivier and Jules
Favre, but men who, like Baucel,
Rochefort and Gambetta, have obtain
ed reputation solely by their bitter at.
tacks upon the empire itself. 1t means
revolutions; 1t means a republic; and
the whole political life of France is
rapidly becoming struggle between
the usurper and his army on the one
side, contending for empire, and a
growing and determined body OF the
people, resolute for freedom. AS yet
the rich and the umid hold the balance
of power, but the Republicans have
time on their side; and whatever de-
lays may occur, whatever terrors may
be wrought, the end is not doubtful.
