r Sr. Louis. May 1855.-
’ ' Fiurxn Bnuorou :--I have mailefd
you a pamphlet entitled "Thoughts about
-St. Louis," a__pe_rus_al _of it will. give you
atolerable proximate idea, of thebusi-’
nest‘ of our city,‘—a city by the way‘
which is" yet in a highly-, unfinished
state. but the present generation ar9__dp.
ing what they can, towards getting—it_ in
a state of forroardness for the next, but
'-I doubt very much whether even the
third or fourth tocome will live to see it
completed. Ere that time arrives, it
will probably be the internal commer-
cial capital, as well as political capital
of the Union,—t.hat that is the "manifest
destiny” of our “village,” is -I think be-
yond question, and had 1 time I could
"produce some of the reasons that "sup-
port such an idea. The trade of St.
Louis has been nearly if not quite so
large this spring, as at any previous sea-
son notwithstanding the severe money
pressure of last winter, and the ‘failure
of the crops last "year, I presume in" this
respect our city has fared much better
than any city in the west, and this too
while the Missouri river, one of our prin-
Oipfll arteries. has been almost unnaviga-
ble the whole spring and consequently,
limiting trade from that quarter, to the
most pressing necessities. Sales. of real
estate have already commenced, and for-
mer high prices are fully sustained, all
these things _show the substantial’ pros-.
perity of St. Louis,.and when the Rdil
Roads now begun and progressing are
completed, they will give hersuch‘ nu
impetus, that the wildest conceptions he
t'o"the'future, will not equal the reality.

alization, itis all plain, practical prose,
and should not be undertaken by any one
without the most serious consideration,
but if, once concluded upon, there should
be no turning back, the purpose should
be followed up with a steady determina-
tion to overcome all obstacles. I would
never advise, or urge any one, to leave
to go west, simply from a love of change
because any such would be sure_to be
disappointed, . but if they are not affaid of
work,——if they have a spirit of determi-
nation that cannot bo daunted, if they feel
that within "them they have sufficient
Stamina to raise them up, equal to the
worst emergencies, that sooner or later
befall most ‘men, in their journey through

industrious, and persevering, and they
must be rewarded with success in the
end. - - ‘
And just hear a word or two about
Kanzas, if there is any one, in that region
who thinks of joining “with any of the
"Emigrant Aid Societies” to get out
there, my advice to such would be, that
they had better stay-where they are, for
an more unmitigated humbug, was never
imposed upon an _unsuspe'ciing people,
than this .“Emigra_nt'Aid”_ business. Per-
haps this fact, is beginning already to be
experienced in some of the localities,
whovhelped to fill the ranks of the first
parties, _wbo,went out last fall by the re-
turn of such of them as were able to get
back. It-is not of such material that
Frontier States are made, nor are they
made in such a way, probably the object
"of the leaders in this Emigrant business,
II to make .Kanzas a Free State; perhaps
they will succeed—-and on the other
hand the object of the pro-slavery fanat-
ics in Misspuri, is to make it a Slave
:Sta_te, perhaps: they will succeed too,-
but where in the history of these States,
can be pointed out, a single instance, of
a successful attempt to found a commu-
nity or State, which .had'_for its support
only an abstractt'¢lea,._if indeed any such
'-were eye: made before? = J us: as sure as
there are certain natural laws, that gov-
ern the building up of States, just as
surely will“the efforts of both their oppo-
sing parties, prove abortive, for they nei-
of which I have spoken, in the least par-
ticular. And now I venture a predic-
tion, it is not that Kansas will be either
slave oi-free, though most likely the lat-
ter, but whichever it may become, it
will befrom causes and circumstances,
entirely independent, and beyond the con.
trolof, the present parties, who are now
raising such a hue and cry. The only
trouble is that innocent men and women
have already suffered this movement,
and more is to follow. If some one,
could get up aplan, whereby these Mas-
sachusetts and Missouri fire caters, could
where they couldienjoy themselves, as
did the Kilkenny cats, of whom we_read
about, he or they would deserve the ev-
erlasting gratitude of the whole country.

Europe Revisited.--No.IV.
PARIS IN MAY.‘
PARIS, May 10th. 1855.
"The delicate footed Spring" is here
at last, but cold, damp and disagreeable,
despite the deceitful sunshine of to day,
and the giant strawberries( from the for
South) that blush (at the atrocious pri-
a home, and old associations, in the east, fies asked for them, I fancy) in sundry
restaurant windows. Yes, in spite of
the freshly plucked cucumbers and pur-
ple grapes (from hot houses. no doubt)
that support and give them countenance
in the windows aforesaid--in spite of the
warm sunshine of to day, rendered
doubly grateful by the cold fogs and
damp cloudiness of many days past——in
spite of the World’: Exposition, which
stands advertised to open next Tuesday,
though it still remains a mere Babel of
fast bound or but half emptied crates,
bales and boxes——-in spite, even, of the
incalculable blessing just accorded to the
champions of Family, [‘Mrs. Howard’s,]
Property, [Louis Philippe’s heirs,] and
Religion, [of the Sunday horse race pat-
tern,] in the miraculous preservation of
the life of His Majesty Napoleon III,
Paris is not gay, but pensive, moody,
tritte-almost morose. What can it
mean? The season, the fortunes of the
Exposition, the interests of the Empire,
the National reputation, all unite in re-
quiring that this Metropolis of Civiliza-
tion should be merry as a lurk; yet John
Bull himself--with Palmerston and his
squad of gouty incapables on his back,
Chancellor Lewis's new mammoth loan
and new Taxes floated in his face, and
the moans of his late gallant army star-
ving and freezing in the trenches before
Sevastopolgtill ringing in his ears-is
not gloomier in mood than his constitu-
tionally brisk, mercurial, vivacious
neighbor across the channel, whose over-
flow of animal spirits he has been ac-
customed to remark and sneer at as
though it were born of frog eating.-1
Verily Jacques Bonhomme has been
very grossly caricatured aforetime, or
his present humor ‘is unaccountable if
not portentious. ‘
In a free country the journals afford
me moods of the hour; but here. under
as little weight or worth as in Timbuc
too or Japan. The uupurchased jour-
nalists, forewarned that they can only
comment on transpiring political events
at the peril of the existence of their
respective concerns, either insert with-
comment what is sent them from the
Palace, or maintain a discreet and stub-
born silence. Hence the recent virtual
dismissal and disgrace of the Empersyie
first Minister, Drouyn de l’Huys, has
provoked less comment here than the
dismissal of the Mayor's Clerk would
have done in New York. As I read
the semi official manifesto, the Minister
was in earnest in seeking peace at Vien-
na, and hence acceded to the admissible
condition suggested by Count Boul ; but
the Minister’: master was not in ear-
nest—or rather, he felt that he could nut
afford to make any Peace that did not
wreath with laurel his Bonapartean
brow, so the proposition of Austria was
rejected, and de l’Huys goes to the wall.
I don’t know how he takes it, but I think
he ought to be thankful that he is fairly
and finally out of a lofty but ticklish po-
sition.
But though affairs of State, even the
rise and fall of Ministers, are not here
accounted legitimate subjects of news.
paper criticiam, yet there are still some
topics that may be handled even by a
a F reuch Editor; and the Consmugjgn-
nel yestrrday gave the Parisian specula-
tors in food and shelter a temperate but
very thorough dressing. Promising
that the anticipated influx of visitors had
yet in no degree been m,|ized.._Paris
having to day fewer foreign spencllllfim
within her walls than usual—the Editor
proceeds to set forth that the ex0fbil8i1l
unexampled prices now -' asked for lot!
gings of every grade above the poorest
and for every article of food except
bread, (the price of which is kept down
by a direct payment of Government
money to" the bakers,) is strongly calcu-
lated not only to repel the expected in-
flux of visitors, but to drive away thou-
sands already here whose income is not
boundless and whose attachment to the

at once a vent for and an explanation of
the Napoleonic regime, the Press is of
nation. All this is very obvious; yet
"what do you propose to do about it ?”
If the owners’ of fresh meat can obtain
thirty to sixty cents a pound for it, can
they be expected to sell it for less from
patriotic any more then philanthropic
considerations? So long as the Owner
or speculative renter of an eligible suite
of rooms imagines that he will find
some one green enougn to take them for
six months at 8200 or $300-a month,
can you hope to bully him into letting
them for $100 to $150? That many of
those who are holding out for such pri-
_ces will assuredly bum their fingers we
who attended the World's Exhibition
in London do undoubtingly know; I
presume lodgings will be as cheap here
and food nearly so in July next as In Ju-
ly last—meamime Isee no recourse for
those unfavorably afiected but to grin
and bear. Possibly a decree from his
Majesty the Emperor, ordering every-
body to sell and rent at last year’s pri-
ces, might have some -influence; but if
the august champion of the sacred rights
of Property against the nefarious ‘de-
signs of Socialism and Communism
were disposed to take that questionable
step, what would become of those who
have bought or hired at current prices
expectiug to make a profit by selling or
letting again '3 What for example would
become of him who (says the Constitu-
tionnel) has hired a house worth $4,000
a year near the Palace of Industry for
8l2,000a year, agreeing to furnish it
gorgeously-as a hotel and restaurant and
give the owner all the furniture at the
year’s end into the bargain? No, the
sword of Brennus is impotent against
the Proteau devices of human rapacity
and folly, but [judge that though many
thousands will be drawn -hither by the
Great Exhibition, Paris will have more
vacant apartments this Summer than
she has had for many years past.
I had resolved not to speak again of
the Exhibition till it is opened, but I
will boldly say that if it does open next
week, as is promised, it must open in
quite as chaotic and unprepared a state
as did either its London or its New York
predecessors, either of which displayed
many more rough, naked boards on the
occasion than was comely or desirable.
Here the unreadiness will doubtless be
more gracefully draped and hidden, but
its existence will be none the less cer-
tain. I shall not be surprised if a’ sec-
ond postponement is announced through
the Moniteur, possibly in season to go
out with this letter, though such post-
ponement is now regarded on all hagds
as excedingly improbable. At allevents
those who leave the shores of Ameri-
ca in June to attend the Exhibition will
be wiser than were we who left lll
April.
The impression now prevails here
that the struggle between the Emperor
and the Institute will result in the deg
radatiou of the la tter. Napoleon has
proceeded cunningly, and his success is
all but certain, though three of the five
sections into which the Institute is divi-
ded have protested against the new Im-‘
perial usurpation, yet the other two hes-
itate. and give time for the creatures of
the Palace to push their intrigues for
submission. I presume it is already
known in America that Napoleon IH
has, by a naked decree, cooly assumed
to himself the power (never claimed by
Louis XIV or Napoleon I) of appoint-
ing all the officers and thus controlling
the funds of the Institute, while by a
second decree, he has craftily appointed
the incumbents to fill those offices. He
thus avoids a contest in which the sym
pathy of ‘the public would inevitably
have been with the ejected; while un-
less the Institute resist, and that effec-
tively, he acquires the power of remo-
ving these incumbents at pleasure and
of filling every place as it may by any
means become vacant. And thus no
step is omitted that may serve to naus-
form the late “Republique Franca 8."
with its "Liberty, Equality, Fravernity.’
into a thorou hly Asiatic despotism.
"But will rance endure this ?” is a
very natural question, of which the true
answer implies that for a time she will
submit, and after a time she will resist
and overthrow; but how long she will
submit, no uninspired prophet can safe-
ly predict. While the Emperor can
borrow $100,000,000 per unnum on the
credit of France and spend it sagacious-
ly on the army and the workmen of Par-
is, his house of cards may refrain from
toppling over; yet over it must go, sooner
or la5er—there is no other result possible.
Indeed the universal consciousness that
this is its natural end, is one of the
most cogent dissuasives from any rash
attempt to overthrow it by force. But
when so able and thorough a champion
of Louis Napoleon as The Times (Lon-
don) is obliged to justify his appoint-
ment as Foreign Minister of Wale\vskj
in place of de l’Huys by significantly
though cautiously observing that “the
choice of the Emperor is restricted
within the narrow circle of the imme-

THE GOSSIP OF PARIS. 7 ’ '
Without pretending to see the end ?of
the newcomplications in European poli-
tics just developed by the resignation? of
Drouyn de l’Huys, I wish to give what
is current in well informed circles "is
the explanation of that most pregnant
incident. A ' "
It is said that the late Minister is
stitutioually cautious, prudent, even tim-
id--in short, not the man to risk” himself
by accepting terms which‘ exceed-"-his
authority--and, ‘in short, that he dulrifl
exceed his powers at Vienna, but “Fwd:
expressly instructed to go there and lflike
peace on ihe best attainable tern':'s',’alfd
this after having personally conferred
with the British Ministry on the subject.
Then how account for his disgrace
and overthrow? ' ' ‘
Thus says the diplomatic circles :‘ '
De l’Huys went to Vienna to make
Peace, and (in effect) didlmakoit. _“Bnt
it§had now become evident at London that
such a Peace as Russia would accept
would,in the present temper of the British
people, be instant ruin to the Palmerston
Ministfy, and would threaten the pow-
Aristocracy as well. So word was sent
to the Tuileries that ‘Peace at any price’
would not answer, and that the settle-
ment cooked up by De l’Huys and Count
Buol must be rejected--and it was. Do
l’l-luys no less astonished than mortified
resigns, and a new promotion becomes
inevitable. ‘
But on what basis '3 -
Walewski who replaces him here, is
a Pole, and has hitherto professed devo-
tion to the reconstruction of Poland;-—
Persigny, who takes Walewski’s place
tne Cabinet some time since because
his master would not consent to appeal
to Poland and Hungary instead‘ of bus-
king in the dubious smiles of Austria.
Finally the Poles here are openly om-
bodied and recognized, and have issued
a manifesto wherein their hopes are
very plainly set forth, and Napolen I
very significantly, though not quite Ic-
curately, glorified as the regenerator of
Poland.
Well : It is certain that therein who
no Peace until after further and desper-
ate fighting--that the Allies csnn'orvi-
tally injure Russia on the Eux-inc-—-that
Austria isindisposed to fight their hit-
tles, and considers herself fully absolved
from all obligation to do so by the Napo-
leonic rejection of Count Buol’: project
after the French Minister of Foreign
Affairs had accepted it—and in ‘abort,
‘that new and more decisive measures
tics: -
France and England make ona~- more
last appeal to the great German Powers
saying "Declare for us or against us,‘-We
can be trifled with no longer. Either
declare war against Russia and unite
your arms with ours to humble her,» or
we appeal to Poland,’ Hungary and Ita-
ly for that aid you refuse us. Choose at
once between our friendship and our en-
mity, if you hesitate we must act." ‘
Such is the substance of the explana-
tions given in high quarters to the event
of the week ; I have - suppressed many
subordinate details, but here is the gist
of the story. If this is not the true so-
lution, what is? '
I may add that Drouyn de l’Huys is
reported to have said to his master when
this new plan of the war was unfolded
to him, “You s m to forget that your
throne is not s rongly’ based 3' ‘bl! 0‘
Alexander II.’ You may (193330? All!!-

War is about to assume grander propor-

have yet been given to it. The tele-

a criminal trial-—the prosecutor pulling
up and the Judge knocltlng GOWD lhe

took occasion to charge the accused
with all manner of crimes committed or
meditated years ago in Italy, and though
the prisoner denied these charges and
no roof was offered in support of-them
they undoubtedly had weight with the
Jury. So not only the Judge and the
prosecutor, but the counsel for the de-
fense also assumed, witnout a shadow of
proof, and in contempt of the prisoner's
denials, that he must have been instiga-
zted and supplied with money by the
Italian refugees living in London. The
‘way the Judge set forth the atrocity of
the Roman Republic, and of all kindred
attempts to affirm and uphold the inalien-
able Rights of Man, befittéd rather a

A Word or two about Newspapers.-—
Rev. Abel Stevens, the editor of the
National Magazine an issue, which
stands nearly in the first place ilmong
the periodicals of our country, says in
his “table,” speaking of the indepen-
dence of the true editor : ‘
"We do not in our editorials, hold our-
selves responsible to the personal ‘views
of any individual patron. For ourselves
personally, we would not subscribe in
