In this connection we can state that an effort has been on foot for some time, with the property owners in and out of the city, on the line of Ktst Washington s'reet. to get tbe railroad extended as fir as the De-if and Damb Asylum.

It is expected that thi money in bai.k iH pecjre about 121 men, leaving def.cit of 121 for thecity. It will require $140,0W, in d lition to bat has been raised, to clear the city, and the feeling is general among the couiicil that this money cancot be raised, and that the draft will go on for tbe deficiency. A general feeling ol despondency was felt that after all the eß'ort that ha been mad, so little had been accoraplihed. A deposition is manifested amour, members of ite council to separate tbe ward, and let every ward take are of itself, as the draft will be by ward, but no action was taken to bring this about.

Hubbard will build two room this spring on Meridian street, adjoining his building j on the corner of I earl street. He purpose t build to correspond with the present house, but we think he chould improve on it, or he will be behiiid the time. Mr Morrison has not yet completed arrangements lor his building on the corner of Maryland and Meridian streets. It i expected he will build this year, and that his building will he a little ahead of any business bouse in the city. Mr. Rinehart will build a brick store and shop on South IHiuois street, where his present pIiod is.

The Icdex, tbe Confederate organ in London, ridicjlea Blair' alleged peace cezotiatioos, hut does not altogether discredit the peace rumors. It asserts that tbe north i tired of war; that more rational eouncils are beginning to prevail. It claims tlut the abandonment of the fci-coast by the south will be an actual advantage in a military point of view, by increasing the strength of its inland armies. The Index then point out that friendship may bo restoied between the north und south, and so close an aliiatice formed as to practically make a Lew union. Under such circumstances war with Kurland or France or both would be a necessity. The Index contends thjt tbe United States i pivi:jthe way for such a war. It tay the war i-j reaching such a crisis; that England and France must decide to become the friends of ono of the belligerents or fijht them both; and events nre occurring which may precipitate thU decision, at letst in the case of France.

Kirby Smith, it appears, devotes more attention to speculations than military matters. According to the Richmond Whig they have tories in Alabama. A party recently made a raid on the town of Jasper, and burned the court houe and several buildings. The mansion in which Jno. C.

but exonerates uen. bteele from all blame ex cept too much confidence in the integrity of his staff. He seems to regard Provost Marshal General Shun ller as the principal offender. Fine and licenses for release from imprisonment, and the proceeds of cotton, are the suspected sources of emolument, of which the e?idence is not ver direct. His dismissal is advised, and Col. T. If. Reuton.of tbe 29:h lows, is recommended in bis stead. Gen. Herron also recommend the removal of Col. B. O. Carr, Chief Q M. The district of Little Rock is controlled by a combination known as McDonald & Co., con tractors for supplying Indian stations with un limited license from the treasury department, by which they bring in immense stocks of goods relieved from the 5 per cent. tax. One party in the chief ijuartermaster's department is brother to the rebel Col. H. McKee, who conducts the trading store at Fort Gibson for the firm of McDonald & Seymour at Fort Smith. The partners are represented as ehrewd and sharp men, with pleuty of money, and is a com bintion which swallows up everything. The oflicer who cannot be brought into their iuterest must make way for some oue who can. Only i! or 3 oflicers dare oppose them.
