Your readers have already been apprised by tele.

Ecumenicai Council. That message mentioned the
omission OF the Papal harangue which was ex-
pected before the hymn Ve,lt creator Spfrttus but
his Holiness made brief Latin speech after the
publication Of the decrees and as it has not been
reported in the Official journal OF Rome send a
translation OF 1t here, thus:-'You see, very dear
brethren, how sweet and important it Is for you to
walk together in the way Of the Lord and in peace.
I, the unworthy vicar Of Jesus Christ, give you

FRANKFORT, May 6, 1870.
The attempt to flood the German markets with q
hundred million dollars Of Northern Pacific bonds
has had the result which every sensible man pre-.
dicted. AS long as only bonds for a moderate
amount were put on the market our authorities,
slow as they are, hestated to interfere; but
as 1t became manifest that long there would be
lenders there would be borrowers to any amount,
things began to look more serious The Chamber
OF Commerce at Berlin have, therefore, put up bill
in the Exchange to the effect that, 1t having come
to their knowledge that large issues of unsound
mortgage bonds in the German markets were con-
templated in America and England, they warned
the public against the purchase Of all such bonds as
were not guaranteed by the United States govern
ment. Brokers were prohibited to interfere In such
transactions, and the Official quotation Of such
bonds as had been previously issued was stopped.
A heavy fall took place here yesterday,
and prices recedcd nve per cent whenever
sales for small amount were pressed, only those
bonds which were supported by the houses who put
them on the market, as both Missouris, Califor-
MAS and Central Pacific, were nrm, as holders did
not take the alarm as soon as they were aware that
they could readily sell. There were, besides the
American mortgage bonds, other reasons to throw
gloom on our market. Tie swindling concerns Of

located and constructed as apublic highway,

said that the city built the road without pay
