THE DAY'S NEWS

The steamer Asia arrived in the Mersey
yesterday, from New York bringing dates
to the 16th inst. She also brougt 82 pas-
:sengers, and $919,586 in specie. The political news
from the States is most important. Advices from
Hayti had been received at New York, which
state that the Emperor had abdicated on the 15th
of January. An ample summary of the news will
be found in another column.
The most recent advices from the Continent
continue to point to the probability that the peace
of Europe will not be disturbed, although the
Governments of both France and Austria continue
their warlike preparations with the utmost vigour.
The Paris Moniteur of yesterday (Sunday) states
that, on the 22nd instant, Cardinal Antionelli
announced to the ambassadors of France
and Austria that the Pope, believing his
authority strong enough to maintain peace in his
dominions, considers his own power sufficient to
warrant the security of his throne, and that in
consequence his Holiness was ready to enter into
arrangements with the powers for the simultane-
ous evacuation of his territory by the French
.and Austrian armies, with the least possible delay. A
letter from Rome of the 19th, in the Gazette du
Midi, says that the speech of the Emperor Napo-
leon to the Legislative Body determined the
Pontifical Court to renew the demand for evacua-
tion which it made two years ago at Bologna, and
it at once charged the Ministers of France and
Austria to make known to their governments that
since that period it has tolerated, but not approved
of their occupation. This communication was
immediately transmitted to Paris and Vienna.
The demand for evacuation was to be followed by
a memorandum to all the powers of Europe, in
which the demand would, it was said, be clearly set
forth The Gazette the Midi observes : This com-
munication, to our great surprise, affirms that the
Pope has taken the lead in the demand for evacua-
tion, and offers to realise it immediately. But what
means will he replace the assistance of France and
Austria, and supply the deficiency of his army,
which only amounts to 15,000 men for a state of
three millions and a half of inhabitants ? That is
an enigma which appears difficult of solution."
The Paris correspondent of the Independance
.0f Brussels asserts that the Emperor, at the
last court ball, spoke to the • diplomatists
present in terms which announced that political
matters had
hard,
on a
entered more tranquil stage.
On the other
• .d, the accounts from the French
provinces, and Particularly from Marseilles, speak
of the armaments
going on with the same vigour.
A letter from that city,initdated Friday, says that
the accumulation of stores and provisions
for the army is greater
military
present than during,
any period of the war in
Crimea.. The ex-
tensive warehouses at the port of the Joliete are
crammed with military stores • in the bake-
houses they are making biscuitsand
night and day.
A detachment of 350 men from the garrison of
Arles embarked at Marseilles on Wednesday
last for' Civita Vecchia, whence they p
Rome. The writer adds, that he is informed to
ormed that
in consequence of recent experiments made at
Lorient, as well as at Vincennes, the upper tier of
guns in all French ships of war are to be rifled.
A letter from Jassy, of the 14th inst., in the
Vienna Gazette, says :—" The financial situation
renders either a loan or an increase of taxes
necessary. The Assemblyr has declared in favour
Th
of the latter course. e Minister of Finance
proposed an increase of five per cent. on the pre-
sent taxation. At first the measure was sharply
opposed, but when confidential explanations were
offered, it was admitted unanimously. The pro-
duce of the tax wil be applied to the increase of
the army."
The Continental correspondence is not calcu-
lated to sustain the pacific hopes which have pre-

vailed since the announcement of. Lord Cowley's
mission. The Paris correspondent of the Herald
says, there has been no suspension of the formid-
able military preparations now going on in every
part of France. On the very day that Lord
Cowley's mission was notified, all the colonels of
the. Artillery regiments at Paris, received notice
that every regiment was to be augmented
by two batteries, each of six guns. There
are twenty regiments of Artillery, besides
the crack artillery corps of the Imperial Guard.
The gloom which the first tidings of Lord Cowley's
pacific mission had partially dispelled, has returned
with greater intensity than before. The general
impression in Paris is, that Lord Cowley has gone
to Vienna solely to enlighten Austria as to the de-
termination of France to go to war on the smallest
semblance of a pretext. The Paris correspondent
of the Times writes much in the same strain. At
Marseilles the circulation of military stores and
provisions for the army is greater than during any
period of the Crimean war. They are making
biscuits night and day. The accounts from other
parts of France speak of the armaments going on
with the same vigour.
The Vienna correspondent of the Times states
that the political excitement in Germany increases
from day to day, and the governments find it
impossible to prevent popular demonstrations
against France, or rather against the Emperor.
According to the Times correspondent, the
number of young men enrolled from Lombardy is
estimated at from 1,300 to 1,500.

A telegraphic despatch from Dresden, dated
Saturday, announces the arrival of Lord and Lady
Cowley at that place, on Friday night, and would
start at noon on Saturday for Vienna. A subse-
quent telegram announces that his Lordship had
arrived at Vienna.

The half-yearly meeting of the Birkenhead and
Chester Railway was held on Saturday, Mr. E. G.
Salisbury, "M.P. presided as chairman, for the first
time. The report was adopted, but an amendment
upon the proposed . dividend (21 per cent. per
annum), was carried, reducing the dividend to 2
per cent. The chairman, and other directors,
approved of the amendment. The directors sub-
mitted a draft of a bill to be introduced this
session, for a railroad from Hooton to Helsby,
with branches to Ellesmere Port and Tranmere
Pool. The bill was opposed by several members,
who urged that it ought to be postponed for the
present ; but it was carried by a large majority.
In the course of his opening remarks, the chair-
man endeavoured to fix the old charge of breach
of faith upon the Mersey Dock Board, in applying
to Parliament this session.

At the Police court, on Saturday, two or three
cases of a novel discription were heard. In the,
first place, a pawnbroker, who had lent £25 to'
a car owner, on a cab, was charged by the owner
for stealing it. The pawnbroker, after lending
the money, got the cab put into better repair,
and left it in a place of safety, in great
Howard-street. The owner was sneaking about
the place, evidently with the intent of laying hands
on it, if he could, without paying the pledge. The
pawnbroker, to prevent this, removed the vehicle,
whereon the owner actually gave him into custody
on a charge of stealing it. Of course, the trick
was at once seen through, and the pawnbroker
was discharged. In another case, a licensed
shipping master, named Kelly, was charged for
having knowingly shipped more men than were
required on board an American vessel, with the
view, as alleged of cheating sailors by getting their
advance notes, and charging them 22s each also,
for having shipped them. There was a prima facie
case for a remand made out, and he was let out on
bail to appear again this day.
