AMERICAN NEWS,

ARRIVAL OF THE PACKET-SHIP REVERE.
LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY, 11. r.m.

. ,
By the arrival at this port tonight of the packet-
ship Revere, Captain Howes, after a remarkably,
quick run of 15i days from Boston, we have re-
ceived accounts from that city to the 10th, and from
New York to the 9th instant, inclusive. During her
passage the Revere encountered heavy westerly gales.
The United States mail steamer Washington, Cap-
tain Floyd, arrived out at New York oa the Bth inst.
She left Cowes on the 21st of December—three days
before the Atlantic departed from Liverpool.
The packet-ship J. Z. and Fidelia arrived at New
York on the Bth instant, from Liverpool.
The Boston Atlas of the 10th announces that the
Royal steam-ship Niagara had been seized for a vio-
lation of the revenue laws of the United States.
We question the accuracy of the report, and are at
least satisfied that the affair will not delay the ship's
departure on the 151 h instant with the usual mails for

this port.
Our accounts are politically of little importance.
Since the Baltic's departure Congress had not trans-
acted any business of European interest, and our
files are almost exclusively occupied by messages
from the Governors of Florida, Illinois, peonsyl.
vania, &c.
From the Philadelphia journals we learn that the
annual message of Governor Johnstone was delivered
to the Pennsylvanian Legislature on the Bth instant.
The message stated that the actual indebtedness of
the State on the 30th of November last was
40,310,094 dollar!. It has been diminished a little
mote than half a million since the 30th of November,
1848, The treasury receipts during the past year
were 4,438,131 dollars ; the payments were 4 558,193
dollars. Tne message recommended a system of
hankirg founded on State stocks. It also discussed
the Fugitive Slave Law, and came to the conclusion
that it was the duty of every citizen to obey its pro-
visions. He objected, however, to some of its pro-
visions, and maintained that they ought to be
amended. _

From Canada and Mexico we have no later advice!.

From Turk's Island we learn that her Majesty's
screw steamer Plumper sailed from Grand Turk on
the 29th of November, for St. Domingo, for the
urotEction of British subjects and property in that
island.
