She encountered great quantities of ice on the passage. (NU St. Job n's and Queenstown.) W YORK, J. 27, Eviornic. General Burnside has resigned the command of the army of the Potomac, and General Hooker has been appointed his successor. GeneraLs Franklin and Sumner have been relieved of their commands. General Burnside's letter of resignation says that the army would, under more favourable circum stances, have accomplished great results. The bad weather and mud prevent any forward movement on the part of the army of the Potomac. In North Carolina the Federal' under General Foster have made no general forward movement. Land forces were, however, sent forward on the 16th towards the railroad, and encountered 1,300 Confederates at Pollocksville. Au engagement ensued, in which the Confederates were driven back. The Federals captured a flag." A Confederate steamer, supposed to be either the Alabama, Orvieto, or Harriet Lane, after a sharp engagement, sunk the Federal gunboat Hatteras off Galveston. The Federal gunboat' had engage ments on the 14th at Bayoutchi, Louisiana ; the Federal commander was killed. No Confederates were captured.

Advices received here from Vera Cruz to the 3rd inst., rid Havannah, announce that the French army had commenced its march upon Puebla. It sas reported that the vanguard, under General Berthier, bad been completely defeated by the Mexicans.—This report was, however, discredited. The Mexicans are stated to be determined to make a desperate resistance at Puebla. The number of the French troops destined to act against the place was 15,000. The Mexicans had 25,000 regulars and 10,000 volunteers at Puebla. The French fleet bombarded Acapulco for three days,when the Mexicans abandoned the town. The French then took possession of the fort and spiked the runs. The fleet afterwards sailed in another direction. DEBATE ON MEXICO IN THE FRENCH CHAMBER, PARIS, Fra. 6. The amendment to the address relative to Mexico proposed by the members of the Left was discussed to-day in the Corps Legislatif. M. Picard explained that the amendment sought to discover the motives for the Mexican expedition, which, he said, was solely caused by the claim put forward by the Swiss banker, M. Jecker. M. Picard maintained that the expedition must have an'unfortnnate issue. It would not (he said) save Mexico from falling into the bands of the United States, but would finally give them Mexico. The expedition, therefore, appeared to him inex plicable, and he naked what was the solution of the enigma. Baron Jerome David said that the expedition was justified by the insults and injuries sus tained by French subjects, and continued "The habitual tactics of parties in France have been to hush up our grievances against Mexico. The national honour demands reparation for the insults offered to us. In the present day we must require from governments sufficient guarantees for order and the protection of our countrymen." Baron Jerome David then drew a picture of the administration of Juarez, and described it as entirely dominated by the United States. Respecting the probable duration of the war, he ' said that as soon as the French occupied the city of Mexico, Puebla, and the ports, they would be in ' , certain possession of all Mexico. The expedition would have the effect of strengthening French influence in America, and would show that French men were efficiently protected. M. Jules Fevre then spoke on the amendment. PARIS, Po. 7. At the conclusion of Baron Jerome David's speech in the Corps Legislatif yesterday M. Jules Fevre spoke on the Mexican question. M. Fsvrs said be did not contest the right of France to intervene in Mexico, but pointed out that [Stamped, Id. Additional.] England and Spain had the same icterests to defend in that country as France. He treated as chimerical the belief that the power of Juarez was ill-established, and continued—" It is our duty to warn the government. If we think the war unjust we should say so, and refuse our concurrence in French blood and treasure being poured out with our responsibility. It was said last year that a foreign prince should be placed on the throne of Mexico. M. Billault declared, however, that the object of the expedition was to obtain redrees." M. Fevre accused the government of concealing the truth in the account read to the Chamber of the conversation between M. Thouvenel and Lord Cowley. He then reviewed Mexican affairs, and asked, in speaking of the Jecker affair, if it were permitted to engage countries for uncertain causes. He afterwards gave an account of the Jecker affair, which the English minister had stigmatised as a robbery, and continued, " That is the honest com merce for which we make war." M. Fevre men tioned the correspondence seized by Juarez, whence it resulted that Jecker flattered himself that he would receive from the high functionaries of the empire a support which he certainly had not met with. - The Moniker has not, however, given any categoric denial. M. Fevre also mentioned that in the course of 1862, and after his dishonesty bad become known, be was naturalised as • French citizen. Under these circumstances, M. Fevre did not think any astonishment should be felt at the French ulti matum having caused the withdrawal of England and Spain. He said :—" In the name of principle and of international law, I disavow the war against Mexico. The war will always be unfortunate, even after the taking of the city of Mexico, for Juarez will continue the war with the free provinces. To get to Orizaba has cost 104 million francs, and to go further than the city of Mexico the treasures of France will not suffice. The war in Mexico is a great mistake. It is a second occu pation of Rome, minus the glory of having defended a great principle. I cannot associate myself with a war undertaken upon mendacious information." M. Billault will reply to-morrow. He undertook to fully reply to all the acousatious brought against the policy of France. THE POLISH INSUBBECTION. LEMBERG, Fla. 6. Yesterday morning the Russians again took Tomasgow, and drove the insurgents out of the town. They quitted it, however, after having burned down some of the houses. Lanziewicz, one of the insurgent chiefs, has de feated a detachment of Russian troops near Sando mica, and made many prisoners, besides capturing a quantity of arms and horses. A revolutionary provisional government was es tablished on Tuesday at Sloezow. The soldiers posted on the frontier near Kroezeje have been disarmed by the insurgents. Two thousand persons have left the town of Ku simir to join the insurgents. REPLY OF THE KING OF PRUSSIA TO THE ADDRESS OF THE DEPUTIES. BERLIN, Pis. 6. The following is a summary of the King of Prus sia's reply to the address of the Chamber of Deputies :—The King concludes from the contents of the address and the mode iu which it was sent to him, that the House seeks to learn the expression of his personal wilL For this reason the reply is given without the intervention of the ministry. His Majesty then adverts to the fact of the Cham ber having accused the ministry of carrying on the administration in violation of the constitution and without the budget being voted, and states that the acts of the ministry have been done with his sanction, because he considered them conati. tutional. The budget, as voted last year by the Chambers, could not be executed; but it was nevertheless necessary that the public adlninistra tion should still be carried on. The King points out that the law requires the budget to be agreed to by the three constitutional bodies of the state. The complaints of the Chamber rel►tive to abuses of the administration are stated by his Majesty to be unfounded. His Majesty further deplores the conflict of opinions, but states that he will not sacrifice the rights of the Crown and of the Upper House to the claims of the Chamber of Deputies. In conclusion the King says, that having thus given a proof that he wishes a reconciliation, be expects that the house will meet his views. The Union Company's steamship Britain left Plymouth yeskirday evening for the Cape, with the mails, mxiskting of 17 bap of letters, 96 bags of papers, sad 11 bags of book: _ . .
