LIVERPOOL, WI

Shortly after 8 o'clock this morning the United
States Mail steam-ship Pacific, Capt. Nye, arrived in
the Mersey, with the usual mails from the United
States and British North America. The Pacific
sailed from New York on the 26th alt., and has
brought besides the mails 93 passengers, and 378,000
dollars in specie on freight.
The United States Mail steam-ship United States
had arrived at New Orleans from St. Juan, with the
Californian mails of the let of November. She re-
ports one million dollars' worth of gold-dust as en
rade from California to New York, per steamer Il-
linois.

The passenger ships from Europe that had arrived
at New York since the sailing of the America from
Boston still continued to show mortality on board to
a fearful elent. The Constellation had lost no
fewer than one hundred of her complement, and the
Hibernia thirty-four.
The Royal Mail steam-ship Canada had arrived
at Boston on the 24th ult.

Bushmen at New York maintained the improved
character previously noted. The stock market had
become depressed owing to the unfavourable chute-
ter of the European news brought by the Canada.
Money, however, was much easier.
The money market at Boston had become very
tight, and several failures had taken place in conse-
quence.

The market for breadstuff/ at New York was quiet,
but firm.

An average amount of business had been trans-
acted in the cotton market, which maintained its
firm character.

Provisions continued dull, and prices were lower.
Freights were firm, as previously quoted.
Exchange on London was firm, at 1091 to 1091;
Paris, 5.111 to 6.15.

FRANCE.

PARIS. TUESDAY EVENING.

The news from London that Austria has adhered
to a new note proposed by France and England, sup-
ported as it is by a detailed statement of the pro-
posed arrangement contained in the Augsburg Ga-
zette, produced a great sensation on the Bourse to-
day ; but in other quarters it is regarded as merely
another fauns alerts. It has been remarked from
the beginning that Autria has from the first
shown herself forward to adopt any proposition
for an arrangement which she knew beforehand
Russia would not accept. The present proposal, so
far aa known, depends for its success upon Russia
sending a plenipotentiary to a conference. Now we
are overwhelmed with news from Germany this very
day to the effect that the Czar will only treat directly
with Turkey, and seta his face against any confer-
ence or congress of any kind. There is therefore no
reasonable prospect that this new scheme will solve
the great dilemma of the evacuation of the Princi-
palities.
The Augsburg Gazette pretends that Austria not
only recommends the new project, bat promisee to go
with France and England "to the end." This, how-
ever, is very dlfilcult to believe.

Helena.

The Count de liatdeld, Pnissian minister at Paris,
has just been named by the King of Prussia privy
wuncillor of the first class, with the title of excel-
lency which is the highest civil dignity that can be
conferred on him in Prussia.
Prince Napoleon was present last evening at the
representation of Les Coulees, at the theatre of the
Oaite.

Another accident of a frightful nature, but fortu-
nately unattended with fatal consequences, has oc-
curred on the Orleans Railway. A goods train
which was standing near Etampes, at half-past six
in the morning, was run into with great violence by
another goods train which was following it at a short
distance. The usual signals appear not to have been
seen in time by the engine-driver of the second train.
Three waggons were literally crushed to atoms, and
several others damaged. A number of cattle-drovers
were passengers by the train which received the
shock, but fortunately they had all alighted at the
moment of the miaow, and no one was injured.

told him that he had taken his note to M. de lihat-
chinsky, and the Russian coasui-generai, on read:";

general was, that he had received a communication
from him some time ago, saying that he had taken
down his flag, and ceased relations with the Walla-
chian government. He, therefore, could take no
notice of the note shown him by the Secretary of
State. He added, moreover, that it was very im-
proper to send armed men about the country, and
that those who did so must abide the consequences.
His verbal communication the Secretary of State said

he hoped the English consul-general would take as a
reply to his note. He promised, however, that the
affair of the Albanian should be inquired into.
Georgie has since been set at liberty, but no esti&

The Wanderer of Vienna of the 2nd says: " It is

Sacken. The Russian general who was killed at
Oltenitza was Baron de Plosen. Letters from the
Lower Danube to the 30th ult. state that the redoubts
and forts of the Turks near Kalafat are remarkable
for their solidity; and, that they are armed with
more than 100 pieces of cannon. What partly
explains the retreat of the Turks to Widdin is that
their communications near that place are always
open. To defend the forts of Kalalat, from 8,000 to
8,000 men will suffice. On the 30th the Russians
still occupied their defensive position near lErajowa.
The weather is now more favourable, and the waters
ilhave subsided. A letter from Jul, states that 18
large houses belonging to the Boyards have been
transformed into hospitals. On the 27th, 40 wounded
Russians arrived there. General Budberg will
assume the administration under the direction of

Prince Gortachakoff. The Councillor of State
Schaltaehimaky has been named Vice-Preaident of
Wallachia."

SWITZERLAND.

The government of Ticino has decided that
the espionnage, of which Contini and his ac-
complices had rendered themselves guilty, is not
punishable by the cantonal code, but only by the
federal code. The prisoners have consequently been
given up to the federal authorities. Many domici-
liary visits have taken place latterly at Lugano.
