The steamship Indian, trout Liverpool, arrived at
Quebec on the 3rd inst. with the C.nadian mails.

The news by this arrival is three days later than
that brought by the Fulton.
The New York Doi* Times of June 2—in an
article entitled ',What will England do?"—observes:

There will be • ftverith anxiety during the Dr xt three
weeks to kuow what c 'um the Brq4, goverment will
pursue on the receipt of the news of Mr Cram; ton's die.

will hardly excite any apprehensint s of an uoferourable
charmer. The British residents hire, whose instincts may
be palely taken es an indication of the manner in which the
news will be received to the other side, do not gene-
rally believe that there will he any atrium die-
estiefaction felt when Mr. M .ros's lever shell

atreauouly British in its feelings SA any paper
published on the other aide of the Atlantic, takes

is personally implicated, and who will, of course, for his

which is purely personal, a notional Inuit, Min not be

from which it could not very eerily extricate itself without

A despatch from Washington, dated the 2nd, says:
"There was but a small attendance in Congress to-
day—fifteen in the Senate, and about sixty in the
boa.e. There will not be a quorum probably for two
weeks."
