As many of our citiiens seem yery anxious and suggestive with regard to con Teying the water down Atlantia etreet.it gives us sincere pleasure to inform them that Mr. Wilson, has according to contract tunneled through tho hill at his own expense a sufficient tunnel to convey off all the water likely to fall before the whole street is finished, and a firm ditch and embankment will be made to turn it into the tunnel. It gratifies us much to ease the minds of our tr'i'cal citizens, so that they may turn their attention to other and uccro prcfitable fields of investigation, The Louisville Journal savsi "Don't advertise it is a very bad plan. It will call attention to you place of business, and it is much better for Deonl who wish to trade with you to hunt you up. It gives your customers exercise," and makes them neaimy. uesides, ifyou advertise somebody will ouy up au or your goods, and then you will have w get more, and it will be a great bother to you. Don't do it. Stowart, and Ayer, and Bonner, and ociiuuck, ana or, :ers, never advertise. They have u iuea mat it injures taeir business." THE U. S. EXPRESS has expired on the Missouri river ; in other words, by an arrangement between the U.S. Express company and tho Merchant's Union Company, the latter gets the exclusive right, as be tween the two companies, to all the territory along the Missouii river, tho former withdrawing entirely. This is a Lugo joke upon Capt. Carson, who, as Agent of the U.

There has been but litt'o change in Gold a shade lower, but quite steady, since the empeach- ment of tho Pro ident has become a fixed fact. Government bonds are V cent lower than last quotations, and havo a downward tendency. Tho New York Tribune, in commenting upon the financial situation says : "The permanent effect of impeachment upon the general business of the country is by no means sure to be disastrous, but tho reverse. The deposition of President Johnson, and the accession of Vice President ade to the Executive chair, followed as the latter would bo by reconstruction in the Cab inet, would give the country a Government which would be a unit, in place of the discordant elements now controlling tho country. Under the new order of things the material interests of the people would revive, and long engagements for oapital be made with the conviction that uudora Government fully controlled by the Republican party, its pol- tical and financial troubles would bo soon har monized and obliterated. The peoplo throughout the count rv already take this view of thecaso.and feel relief that the discordant elements in the Gov ernmental to bo removed, and stability and unity of purpose secured, under which alone commerce can prosper."
