Twitaiumni—Marieg, lb. 43........-Aftemos. A. la. LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNE 17. Arran the declaration made by Lord Petals:anon last night in the House of Commons, we may take for granted that all danger of a rupture with the United States, arising out of the Enlistment question, is at an end. The Government at Washington have accepted the explanations of Lord CLARENDON in so far as the English Government is concerned; the English Minister at Washington and three English Consuls of whose conduct the American Govern ment believes that it has a right to complain, have been dismissed ; but diplomatic intercourse between the two Governments Is not to be broken off. It does not, ender these circumstances, appear that the controversy can ever be resuscitated. Bat the Central American question remains unsettled, and the relative positions of the two nations with regard to that region are such as to inspire an anxious wish that some final understanding reepeeting them could be ar rived at. It is true Lord PALMERSTON stated last night that Government, while protesting British Wirers in Americas' waters, will take cerJ not to insult or annoy American citizens ; and, in roue queues of the strict injunction• transmitted from the Admiralty to our ships stationed in the Caribean see, not to assert or seek to exercise any right of search with regard to American vessels bound to Ban Juan. the Government at Washington has resolved not to send their tires frigates to that station. The risk of a collision at eta is therefore diminished; bet not entirely removed, for, warned by the experience of the Earydios, our Admiralty has resolved to maintain on the Central American station a faros at least equal to any that the United States may plate there. Matters standing thus, an set of indium don on the part of an English or Ameri can commander may at any time bring on • collision that may produce the most terrible results. It is to be desired that affairs in Central America should, without las of time, be placed on "soh a footing that both Zap land and the United States may be able to disuses with squadrons of observation in its waters. Men, whose beelines it is to tight, and who are bows:ably ambitious of earning a reputation for zealously up holding thidr country's honour and interests, are u full of punctilio as duellist', and with arms at their command as prompt to engage in " &Seine( honour." Is the time of the Otalleite difficulty with Francs a certain Captain Tour Nwous, who anchored his little frigate, with springs on its cables and hie gum "hotted, in preemies of two or three French line-of battle ships, while he wee conning VATTIL in his whin, had nearly set Frames and England together by thews. Not a moment ought, therein,, to be lost by Lord CIARENDON in availing himself of the authority delegated by the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES IS Mr. DALLAS, to bring to a woclusion the misunder standings between their respective Governments. arising oat of the unsettled state of Central American affairs. Mr. DALLAS is iestrueted "to enter into cumulation with Her Manars's principal lizaw- TART for FOREIGN AMISS, in relation to Central America, in order to ascertain, in the Ant place, whether existing differences cannot be promptly ter- minated by direct negotiation, and if they cannot, I then to discuss the conditions of arbitration of thane points of difference as to which alone this method of settlement seems requisite or applicable." The ar. biters whom the American Government would prefer are thus indicated The Paul DENT dose not doubt that any cue of the Powers of Europe, which would consent to undertake the task of such an arbitration se Is Dow proposed, would perform the duty with per iod impartiality; but to apply to any Power to do this, would be to ask of it an act which, if granted by it, would add to its own domestic duties and labours the burden of settling complicated differences of other goverussats. He would greatly prefer that, in a emetreverey like the present, turning on points of political geography, the matter should be referred to some one or more of those eminent men of seines who do honour to the intellect of Europe and Ame rica, and who, with previous consent of their re spective Governments, might well undertake the task of determining mach a question, to the acceptance as well of Ear Kuserr's Government u of the United States." The questions which the PRESIDENT expresses his willingness to submit to arbitration are thus Judi. sated The PRESIDENT is not prepared to my that some of the questions of fact, concerning which the two Governments differ, may not he conveniently determined by arbitration or some analogous method. Of this class of objects of inquiry is the question, what are the rightful limits of the establishment of the Belize on the side of Roeder..; the question whether the Bay Islands do or do not belong to that republic; and the question what extent of country is imbrued in the term Mosquito Coset, or is in the serial occupation of the Mosquito Indians, coed. dared as Indiana, and with such territorial rights only as that description of persons are entitled to claim, according to the established public law of Great Britain, of the United States, and of Spain, or of the independent States which succeeded Spain in America ; remembering that no power exists, en the part of Great Beluga and the United States, to dispose of the sovereign rights of Nimes's% or any other State of Central Americo." The settlement of these questions would not indeed exhaust the long list of disputed point. regarding Central America, but it does appear t►at we may ammo with the Pissiram "that the other points of diffusive' would after that yield, as of coarse, to conferees. between the Earl of CLARENDON and yourself (Mr. Duxes), endured is the spirit door. diality and frankness which belongs to your personal rslatioss, and which is dictated by the tree interests both of the United States and Great Britain." We bars no hesitation In declaring it to les oar opinion that a door is hero opened for negotiations, which, if coodaetod oa both sides with a sinters desire to arrive speedily at ao igsitable and lasting settlement, might soon put a period to oar difficulties with the United States so far as Central America is coacorned. For various reasons we should prefer direct negotiation between England and the United States to arbitration. bide pendant nations aro rather reluctant to subunit to arbitial doeisioas when jadruont it given spinet them, and plea. sr, easily devised for evading a refs. rises to arbitratian. If Mr. DALLAS sad Lord CLA 'num,' woald most each other it? the mum spirit that animated Lord Asnsvirrox and Mr. Waiter= when they mot to settle the North-West boundary gamiest, the points proposed to be Mimed to arbihatims latibi istidasisrily be disposed if at ass or two modal& The fact is, that the only one of these questions that admits of a envious diseumion is that which relates to the boundary of oar British settlement at Belize. The Bay Islands ere beyoed a doubt part of the republic of Hondursk and ;he English wen nation of them is en act of msurpetion. The Mos quitien Portectorste is a fame. The so-celled King of INOSQVITIA is manly the half•avage chief of one of the native tribes thinly scattetid along the west between the frontiers of Honduras and Costa Rica. By the public law of all the colonising Powers of Europe and America he and his people stand in the same relation to the Government which can establish a claim to the territory they occupy as the Indians in the United States do to the Government at Washing tow, or the Maori of New Zealand to our own Go vernment. Great Britain claims no territorial rights in Mosquitia, and one or other of the Spanish republics there hes inherited it as =COMM to Old Spain. The equitable settlement of these moot points would be beet effeeted by a declaratory treaty, in which it was agreed: That a joint commission should be appointed to run the boundary line between the British settle ment of Belize and the Republic of Hooduresi that Great Britain should restore the Bay Islands to the Republic of Honduras; and that the district called Mosquitia should be placed under the sovereignty of the Spanish American Republic that can show the best title to it, the same rights being secured to the' Indians inhabiting the territory, under the joint guarantee of England and the United States, that are enjoyed by the aborigines in the United States and New Zealand. The ground would thus be cleared for a mutual understanding between the Govern ments of England and the United States u to the system of international law which both are to recog lies in future as established throughout the corticoids of America and the waters of the Pacific and the Atlantic. This* however, a wide subject, the consi dered°. of which mast be postpooed till a future op portunity. For the present the general feeling of the country will, we are coefident, be one of great :reties*. tics that oar trisedly relatioes with our kinsmen across the Atlantic are not likely to be disturbed upon grounds so puerile as the dismissal of an incom petent diplomatist, or the claim of a shadowy protectorate. There wu a meeting at the Reform Club yester day afternoon, to pet up dinner to the hero of Lars —Sir W. F. Williams, Ban. —the bright particular star amongst the English °Mars.

Colonel Lake Introduced the Mayor to General Williams, who, on thus being recognised by the large crowd who Used the quay, was cheered most enthusiastically. Loud hurrahs continued to rend the air while the gallant pascal, who was looking remarkably well, proceeded up the landing• stairs, and did not cease until he arrived at Birmingham's Royal Ship Hotel, when be had arranged to stay for a sh<rt perkd before proceeding to London. Immediately on reaching the Ship, the Corporation pre sented an address.

Tc day, on the occasion of the distribution of medals to the troops returned from the Crimes, the King addressed to the soldiers a speech, of which the following is a passage :—" Yon have worthily re sponded to my expectations, as well as to the hopes of the country; and you have justified the confi dence of the Allied Powers, who offer to you to day • solemn acknowledgment of their high opinion. I now receive back your victorious standards, cer tain that if the interest and the honour of the wen try oblige me to restore them to you, you will ever and everywhere cover them with fresh glory." These words were hailed with enthusiastic cleats. The ceremony resp3nded on the whole to the general expectation. AUSTRIAN ITALY. The Espero of Turin states from Lombardy that the Austrians are actively preparing for war in Italy, and that at Mantua, Milan, Verona, and Pavia, the fortifications ere being pushed on with great activity. SPAIN. MADRID, Julia 15. • - The government accepts the mediation of France in the difference with Mexico. It is on this day that is to be discussed the proposition brought forward by the democratioal deputies against Marshal O'Donnell. Letters from St. Petersburg state that the Ruseian Government intends to make Odessa a free port, and to permit every description of merchatdise to be im ported there free of duty. The line of custom-house is to be removed twenty-five werstes into the interior. Should this measure be accomplished, it will offer great advantages to European commerce. THE RUSSIAN NAVAL ADMINISTRATION. (IT ILLECTRIC HAMBURG, MONDAY EVININO.

ARREST OF BRITISH SEAMEN AT PORTO D'ANZIO. (nor ova ow* ROME, JoMI 10. The jealous surveillance habitually exercised by the Papal authorities stationed along the ses-coastr especially on the Mediterranean side, has been notably increased of late, in consequence of a fear entertained by the government that some portion of the redoubtable Augloltalian Legion, or some of the Italian revolutionary emigrants, or both, should find their way to the hallowed shores of St. Peter's Patri mony, and commit unhallowed attacks on the tem poral throne of the Apostle's representative. Ships in the offing are anxiously reconnoitred, and a suspicions sail immediately throws the gar rison of each little port into a febrile com motion. This nervous state of agitation has just proved a source of inconvenience to some of our countrymen returning from the Crimea in the British transport ship Lady Franklin, 480 toes, of Liverpool, who were desirous of proceeding direct to Eaglet(' via France by one of the Mediterranean steamers which touch at Civita Vecchia, instead of performing the more circuitou voyage through the Straits of Gibraltar. The Lady Franklin arrived off Porto Id'Anzio on the evening of the bth, when Mr. Evans, part proprietor of the vessel, the mate, and three men went on shore to make inquiries, but, finding that they bad landed at Porto d'Ansio and not at Giumicino, as they bad expected, they were about to return to their vessel, when they wen at rested by the custom-house sol diers for having landed without due autho tisation, thereby infringing the police and unitary regulations. The British vice consul, M. d'Andrea, immediately despatched a report of the occurrence to the British consul at Rome, through whose prompt representation to the President of the Board of Health orders were forwarded on the following day for the release of the prisoners, who arrived here yesterday, their ship having meanwhile sailed in search of safer anchorage and more hospitable shores elsewhere. Juma 12. The sailors of the Lady Franklin were kept without food for eighteen hours, and underwent four days incarceration. The vessel herself has not been heard of yet, and Mr. Evans has started for Civita Vecchia in search of her.

(PROW OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT) PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. I am Wormed that the Corps Legislatif is to be prorogued till July 2. There is little doub: that the new tariff bill abolishing prohibitions will be passed this session, although there is a majority of protectionists in the house who would throw it out if they dared. A bill has been presented to the Corp' Legislatit this afternoon for authorising the government to concede the Pyrenean railway lines. The Bourse opened very unfavourably, but there wan an improvement in the afternoon, owing to an - - announcement tkat the Caisse des ehemina de fer had offered the Syndicate fifteen millions of franca for the railway share settlement, leaving the house to fix the rates of carrying over, and to select the securities. The Rents rose 20c. for cuts, sad 10c. for account, closing at 71fr. and 711 r. 30c. Credit Mobilier, after havieg fallen 50fr., rallied and closed at Friday's price. Railways improved con siderably from the opening prices, under the influence of the circumstance above mentioned. The rates of reports declined rapidly, and were ultimately very easy. The southern line was in great demand and rose 32fr. 500. Northern, Orleans, and Mediterranean improved from sfr. to 10fr. each ; but Lyons fell 22fr. 50c. Grand Central fell 10fr. Austrians were in favour and rose 15fr. It is announced that balls will be given at the Palace of St. Cloud on Thursday and Sunday next. Notre Dame was opened to the public to-day to witness the decorations as they were on the day of the baptism. The Moniteur of this slay contains a description of the games, illuminations, and fireworks with which the inhabitants of Paris celebrated, on Sunday, the baptismal ceremony of the preceding day. By order of the Emperor medals commemorating the event have been distributed to all the children of the colleges, academies, and schools, and also to the sub-officers and soldiers of the army of Paris. These medals,l2o,ooo in number, are of silver, and as large u the 50-oentimes pieces; on one side they hear the effigies of the Emperor and Empress, and on the other that of the Imperial Prince, with the date Jane 14, 1666. On the occasion of the baptism the Prefect of the Seine has presented (says the Moniteur) a bag of sweetmeats to each of the 50,000 children frequent. jog the primary communal schools of Paris. The Lord Mayor of London has soot to the Prefect of the Seine a first instalment of 4,0001. on account of the London subscriptions for the victims of the icon. dations. On the 21st of this month there will be a meeting in Paris of the European engineers who have been to Egypt to study the plan for piercing the Isthmus of Suez. Rear-Admiral Itigault de Genouilly and • capiteine de raswau have been designated by the government to assist the engineers. In all probability a request of M. Les. ceps, that two British naval officers should be added to the committee, will be acceded to. A book will shortly be published in London and Paris, containing all the documents relating to the project of piercing the Isthmus. PARIS, MONDAY MOININD. We old Parisian residents are so blasE with fetes, that we are about the worst people in the world to give a description of them. We know by heart all the " properties " in the extensive warehouse of M. Alexis Godillot, the undertaker of public rejoicings, and their reappearance in the streets fails to exc,to enthusiasm in our dulled imaginations. All I can say of the entertainments of yesterday is that they were as successful es any I ever witnessed. The illuminations in the Champs Elytees were very pretty indeed. I have seen more lamps, but never saw any more elegant arrangement of them. The fireworks were splendid. There was not a single failure. The " bouquet" seemed to be never-ending, and called forth screams of delight from the count less thousands who witnessed it. The weather was so fine and cool that people were inclined to walk about in the evening. Instead of concentrating, as they sometimes do, in the Champs Ripen, they spread far and wide, taking up positions towardi the Palsy barrier and cn the heights of Chaillot. The consequence was, that the Place de la Concorde, except just under the balcony of the Minister of Marine, was not quite so densely packtd u I have seen It before. There were many well dressed ladies circulating in the crowd without inconve nieces. A better behaved crowd it is impossible to imagine. There was no pushing or struggling foe places. Everybody seemed to be enjoying themselves thoroughly. The universal good humour was something delightful to behold. The illumi nations in the town were more general than on Saturday evening. In the Faubourg St. Honore the majority of the private houses sported lampioos. In the new Rue de Rico!' the gas company had formed along the first floor bslcouirs an unbroken line of light a mile long. This was the greatest novelty of the night. The tower of St. Jaques la Boucherie was lighted up even more bril liantly then before. So were Notre Dame and the Pantheon. The eight of the quays from the bridges was beautiful in the extreme. The bathing establish ments on the river were profusely decorated with lamps and impious of various forms, sizes and colours. The streets were crowded till long after midnight. I have not seen any one who was so fortunate is to get any of the 20,0001 b. of bonbons which fell from the balloons. There was a nartherly wind, and I fancy none of the parachutes dropped on this (the southern) side of the river. A rather exciting scene occurred when the great balloon went up st half past four. Just as the ascent was b-gior.ing G sadden gust of wind blew the balloon over on its side to ,at is the ground. The crowd, unable to restrain itulf, rushed in, seized the cords, held the balloon forcibly to the earth, and, with a total disregard of fair play, and in spite of the remon strances of the dismayed aeronaut, took forcible poe. session of all the bonbons it contained. The sweet meats were devoured with as much rapidity se a fox thrown down among a peck of hounds. The da. the ere ascent close a management good-humouredly submitted to the lost. Fortunate t o r were b ' a s refilled, happily effected, and the distribution made from the air as if no mischance had happened. hand. y i t h h e there were u tn e o a re w b e The fetes are not over. There is the ball at the Hotel de Ville to come off to-night. The weather a beautiful. In the Pais corn market, daring the put week, business was restricted, prices varying from 93f to 96f. for the four marks. Accounts from the pro vinces speak favourably of the growing crops, but that circumstance has not produced any alert on the provincial markets, busintas being everywhere slack and prices firm. Count de fitackelberg, aide-de-comp to the Emperor of Huai', roar-admiral, and adjutant-gineral to the fleet, has arrived in Paris. Hem accompanied by it aide.do eamp of the Greed Duke Coortautine, act by a superior officer of engineers. Tee count ham the intention of visiting the forts and arsenals of Fracas.
