LIVERPOOL, SAIMILDAY, MIDNIGHT.
The Royal mail steamship Africa, Captain Shan-
non, has arrived with ad-vices from New York to
the 20th init., and 1,244,367 dols. on freight.
In the Senate on the 19th, on the motion of Mr.
Seward, a resolution was adopted requesting the
President, if not incompatible with the public
interests, to communicate to the Senate any infor-
mation in his possession derived from officers ef
the United States squadron on- the coast of Africa,
or from the Bri,ish or French Governments, or ai3Y
other official sources, concerning the revival of the
slave trade,

The Chairman of the Special Committee on 5
the,
Pacific Railroad scheme had introduced a Bill •
proposes to locate the road at a point on the M 1
sours river between the Big Sioux and the Kansas
rivers, thence running to San Francisco on the
mo't eligible route. In aid of the construction of,
the work alternate sections of land on each side of
the road are to be granted, and 12,500d015. advanced
on the completion of every twenty-five miles of
the track until 25,000,000 are expended, the
amount to be reimbursed in mail service and the
transportation of troops and munitions of wen
The President is to receive the bids and make the
contract for twenty years. Five per cent of the
stock is to be issued.

In the House of Representatives on the 18th
Mr. Campbell asked leave to offer a joint resolution
authorizing the President to negotiate, through
the State Department, for the acquisition of Or
nada, Nova Scotia, and other parts in British North
America, and Cuba and the other islands adjacent
thereto, and annticing them to the United States•
In the event of any acquisition no portion should
be admitted into the Union until possessed of sofa'
cient population to send one member to the House
of Representatives, or until the bonaficle residents
should have an opportunity of voting on the Con'
stitution, and regulating their domestic institutions
in their own way, subject only to the Constitution
of the United States. The motion did not meet
with approval. The New York papers ridicule it,
and ask why Mr. Campbell did not include the
entire continent of America.

" Owing, says the Now York Times—
" To the continued heavy westerly winds whist'
have prevailed for the past two months vessels
I bound westward from European porta are making
uncommonly long passages. With those carrying
passengers, at this season of the year, a long lot
Ewe proves very injurious and destructive to health
and life. Ship fever more particularly is apt to
make fearful work among emigrants ill clad an,a
provisioned, and poorly supplied with the pure al,
so absolutely essential to the preservation 0'
health. It is almost impossible to force emigrant
passengers upon deck during rough and wet weather.
Many captains are prone to indulge their passenger;
in their desire to remain below, and the sad result ,
at this season of the year that ship fever is alma:
certain to follow. We learn that a vessel areive
during the past week at Quarantine had 20 death
on the passage, and about the same number had
the ship fever upon her atrival. There are nes..„2l
vessels now at sea that have been out, some UFA
and some even 70 days. It is feared they V'
suffer much from want and disease."
A public school at Brooklyn had been destroyed
by fire. There were nearly 900 pupils present at
:
the time the fire broke out, and in the excitement
attending their exit from the .building seven bol'
between the ages of 6 and 10 years, were crushit
and suffocated by their companions on the midn'w
landing of the lower stairway.
The steamer Fashion, which conveyed Walker UV
Nicaragua, had arrived at New Orleans and bell
seized by the authoritio4.
The St. Louis Republican bad received inforina;
tion of a meeting on the 23d Dec. between 600 sad
700 Cheyenne and Comanche Indians returnit
from Salt Lake to their village on the Black Val'
nut Mills, about 80 miles south-east of Fort Lars'
mie. They were accompanied by about 20 lia4,%'
mon leaders. It was their intention to remain
'-
the camp erected there until spring, and then off"ploy themselves, under Mormon influence, in het
ee
sing and cutting off the supply trains sent to On l'
lief of Col. Johnson. The Indians had been led
v",;
believe that the Mormons had 80,000 fighting 111
well equipped for service. They also spoke d
numerous fortifications and a large numbereeA
Indian allies, and declared that the Mormons had
no idea of running away from Utah.
