AMERICAN NEWS
THREE DAYS LATER FROM THE

UNITED STATES.

LIVERPOOL, MoNnAN EVENING.
The fast-sailing packetshiP England, Captain
Waite, arrived in our, Port this evening, after a
speedy passage'of nineteen 'days and a half. By
her we have.been put in possession of NeW York
papers to the 20th ult. Matters had assumed a
quiet appearance in the political world. The
M'Leod affair had almost ceased to be men-

tioned, and those journals disposed to wage a
wordy war with England were looking abroad
for subjects of quarrel on which to vent their
spleen. Some doubtful information, brought
from Maracaibo, had, afforded food for a para-
graph, stating that the Venezuela territory had
been invaded by British troops; and rumours
were afloat of our evil intentions against Cuba.
Little or no reliance was, however, placed on the
latter report.

The Money Market, according to the latest
accounts, exhibited some variation, and had
closed rather heavily. Cotton was also dull, but
Flour was very firm, with a tendency to advance.
The following extracts contain all that is
worthy of notice :

WILLIAM WELSH,
HUGH CAMPBELL,
-U. S. Gaz. WM. KING.
The Prince .de Joinville, and suite, arrived in this
city from the Falls, last evening, and took lodgings at
the American. The whole party left in the Columbus,
this morning.
The party will tarry a day or so at Cleveland, De-
troit, Green Bay, and then proceed to St. Louis via
Prairie de Chien. Taking the Ohio river, they will re-
turn to the seaboard by the way of Pittsburg and the
interior towns of Pennsylvania.--Buffalo Com. Advertiser.
The Albany Argus of Saturday says:—" We were in
error yesterday in saying that M`Leod passed through
this city on Thursday, on his way to Boston, via Hud-
son.] lllc came no further than Schenectady, taking the
cars from that place to Ballston, and no doubt thence to
Canada." But the Boston Transcript says, that M‘Leod
actually embarked on board the steamer Acadia, which
is confirmed through Mr. Harnden's express.
No less than one hundred and twelve men were
recently put on trial in Ogle County, Illinois, on an
indictment for murder. The charge was for having
killed a couple of notorious miscreants named. Dris-
coll, who set all law at defiance, and had actually
committed several murders as well as other enormous
crimes, and managed by means of their numbers and
of the wilderness in which they carried on their de-
predations, to escape the reach of the Civil Magistracy.
The entire population of the country had been obliged,
in self defence, to turn out and rid theinselves of the
nuisance— a nuisance that had placed itself beyond. the
pale of the law, and made itself intolerable to the suf-
ferers. They did turn out, and probably inflicted sum-
mary punishment upon the offenders.—We doubt not
that the Driscolls were put to death by their hands,
and much as such an act must be lamented, we are not
quite certain that under the circumstances of this case,
that it should be put down among the ordinary enor-
mities denominated Lynch Law. In such a part of the
country, and in such a state of society, it is difficult to
pronounce judgment against the accused. At all events.
the Jury acquitted the prisoners without hesitation.
