to contemporary Journal which satisfactorily re-
flutes one Of the many caumnies to which the Jea-
lousy of our priority In announcing of the most
important events Of our time has given rise; The
report, as respects Mr. MLane, was from the first
absurd, for at all acquainted with the strict
probity and high character of the American minis
ter, could have suspected him Of conduct which
would not only have required his immediate recall,
but would have forever excluded him from the
society of honorable men We do not, however,
regret the contradiction to this report, il
of the many ridiculous and mlschievous fictons
which the disappointment OF our contemporaries
has caused them to put forth. The story is, in fact
just as true as other absurd conceits Of the same
Journal, as. Tor instance, that We had engaged spe
cal train to convey the news TO Liverpool in time
ted on large scale in Mark lane. AS we are quite
confident in the truth OF our announcement, we
leave speculation on the matter to the Twins.

There seems, by the adyices within the last day

usual Just before the close OF the year. We believe
however, that stocks are everywhere low, and that
soon after Christmas. provided the American polit
cal accounts are satisfactory, there will be revival
OF buslness, and nearly as much activity in the
spring OF this year. With respect to the home trade,
seeing the ample employment for labor which rail-
r0ads must give, there are the best prospects, and
the money market at present offers no obstacle to e-
