The latest advices from Port Royal state that a
detachment of Federal marina had landed on
Tybee Island, and commenced constructing new
fortifications. The Confederates had sunk two
vessels between Tybee and Fort Pulaski, in the
narrow part of the Savanna river channel, to pre-
vent the fleet from coining up.

A small schooner hasbeen sent from Hilton
Head to load cotton at one of the islands above
Hilton, and would sail shortly by order of the
Federal naval authorities.

The leading newspapers of New York contain
little, editorially, on the relations between England
and America.

The New York Herald says that England takes
advantage of the Mexican expedition to keep her
fleet iu the waters of the Gulf without exciting
alarm.

The New York Timee, in referring to the warlike
preparations in Canada, says there is nothing in
the action or language of the Federal government
calculated to wound the susceptibilities of the Eng-
lish government, and that the real mischief has
been done by the newspapers, and principally by

The arrival of the Nashville and the burning of
the Harvey Birch wu teler,raphed to Loodonderry,andoaught
the boat there which left for Portland, U.S., on the 21st
ult. Inte"igence as to how that news was received in New
York may be looked for every boor. The Hansa, which left
Southampton on the 27th ult., took out the London journals
of that day, which commented on the outrage on the Trent.
Those journals will reach New York before Lord Lyons'
instructions, which went out in the Europa. Commander
Williams, the Admiralty agent of the Trent, also wrote a
despatch to Lord Lyme from St. Thomas, which will most
probably reach him before the Europa arrives The Canada,

According to the Trieste Gazette, a sta. of
Polish Akers, to be about 70 in number, is being formed at
Genoa, for a Polish Legion. All those selected aro young
men, and as they wear their national costurne,with the head-
dress, white and blue in colour, called Confoderatka, they
excite great attention in the city. Navy of them are well-
known men—Counts Ostrowski, Dembinski, and Cray-
kowskl; KY. Zaducklicki, Lewicki, and Zacricki ; the
latter, at one time, aidede•amp to General Bem.

Willie M. Bertaiii, in the sitting of the ith of
the Italian Chamber of Deputies, Was engaged in eulight-
suing his audience on the various shortcomings of the see
of Rome, a female voice, which had already been heard the
day before horn the trams, utter*, sentiments of •
decidedly radical tendency, eylaimed that the Pope was
Antichrist. This created some oonfusion in the chamber,
and an immense majority of the members demanded the
expulsion of the u•known culprit. A lady bent forward,
" I ask your pardon, gentlemen," but the cries of
" Turn her out !" coutioning, she left the tribune. She
appeared to be about forty years el egg, sad wen a crimson
