LIVERPOOL, SIIND.ii EVENING.

The steamer Africa arrived this afternoon, bring-
ing New York dates to the 3d inst., with 48 passen-
gers and. 83,300 dollars specie. On the 11th she
passed the Arabia, bound west. The America ar-
rived out at Boston on the Ist inst.

The news is but of slight importance.
The bill for the admission of Kansas was being
delayed in the Senate, and the chairman of the ter-
ritorial committee had given notice that he would
present a substitute whereby Kansas and Minne-
sota should be admitted together. It was belieied
the bill would pass both houses.
The Senate, on the 2d, passed the bill appro-
priating 400,000 dollars to enable the President to
cotiaplete the Sound Dues treaty.
was said the President would shortly send a
message to Congress urging an increase of the army
by the addition of new regiments, as set forth in
his annual message.
11. was rumoured that a general bankrupt law was
about to be introduced in the Senate.
antormation is said to have reached Washington,
yip Central America, that the commAniers of her
Btitannio Majesty's vessels of war on the West
ledia station have received orders from the British
government to capture and treat as pirates General
Walker and all or any other filibusters, wherever
they may find them. This, it is said, they would
have done before, but they were afraid of creating
an ill feel,ng and jealousy in the United States
against the British Government.
A W.ishington telegraph says that regulations
have been adopted by the respective PoA-office de-
partments of this country and Great Britain for the
treatment of newspapers iu the mails found to con-
tain writing or any enclosure, the object being to
-on.cfc-sh. fraaadulent practice referred to, 'which is
now prevailing iff lzp-,tn countries to a mucaCkeaine-
extent than formerly. These regulations prescribe
that newspapers posted in the United States for
the United Kingdom, or vice versa, if found to con-
tain writing or any enclosure, shall at the option of
the despatching country, either be stopped and
sent to the dead letter office, or be for warded charged
with full letter postage, United States and British
combined ; and if the writing or enclosure be de-
tected in the country to which such newspapers are
sent a like course shall be adopted,
The latest accounts from the Utah expedition are
highly favourable. The Secretary for War and the
General-in-Chief are diligently engaged in arrang-
ing the spring campaign against the Mormons. It
has been decided not to wait tie action of Congress
upon the various propositions for increasing the
military force, but to withdraw troops from the
frontier post and concentrate them in Utah. Orders
in accordance with this design have been already

issued.
Brigham Young had sent a message to the Utah
legislature, in which he discusses the difficulties
of the Saints with the Gentiles. Having received no
official notification of the intention of the govern-
ment to supersede him in the gubernatorial office
nor of the despatch of troops to Utah, Young
affects to regard the army at Fort Bridger, and
the civil authority there, as an orgtnised mob,
against which he has agreeably fulminated a pro-
clamation to disperse, and he calls upon the legis-
lature thereupon to adopt such measures as may
be deemed proper. The legislature has thereupon
passed resolutions expressing their entire confidence
in Brigham Young, and their determination to
sustain him.
General Walker, the filibuster, had been ad-
dressing the citizens of Nashville, of Tennessee,
and mot with much sympathy.
The democrats of New York had held a large
meeting, and adopted resolutions sustaining the
President in his Kansas policy.
Lord Napier is said to have addressed a letter to
General Cass iu relation to the rapid increase of the
African slave trale, and suggesting the propriety of
adoptins more decisive measures for its suppression.
The customs receipts at New York were largely
on the increase.
The news from Central America is of little in-
terest. Colonel Alvarado, of tit,- Costa Rica army,
had been degraded from his rank and sentenced to
four years' imprisonment, for surrendering to Col.
Frank Anderson, the filibuster, without a bAttle.
The revolution in Peru was drawing to a close,
and Government had offered liberal and merciful
propositions of peace.
The British war steamer Brunswick was at Colon
ou the 19th of February.
Havannah dates are to the 23d of February.

The news is unimportant ; exchanges are dull at
13 to 13 premium on. London.
The New York money market continues to be
abundantly supplied, and the speoie reserve of the
various banks had increased to 31,600,000/.
Exchange was flat : prime bankers' bills on Lon-
don were quoted at 109 to 1091.
Stocks had been very buoyant at a further large
advance, but on the 2d the market wahsiardatlloiesrt
weaker, although the spesulativa

Neill Brothers and Co.'s Cotton Circular, by the
Africa, reports an advance of ±to in the southern
markets during the week, although the receipts had
amounted to 148,000 bales in excess upon any pre-
vious week of the season. Private telegraphs re-
ported great activity at New Orleans under the
America's news, and middling advanced The
views entertained of the crop were very generally
unchanged.
Ashes were dull. Coffee was heavy. Flour quiet,
but unchanged.

THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK.-PROBABILITI
OF A NE IV TRIAL.

It would appear from circumstances that have
recently transpired that there is a very great pro-
bability that the whole of the proceedings inmon-
nexiou with the directors of the Royal British Batik
will ~ave to he gone through a second time, in con-
sequence of the course that was taken upon that
occasion with regard to one of the defendants.'
Chir readers will remember that Mr. Stapleton,
M.P. for Berwick, was one of the defendants, and
that although the Lo rd Chief Justice summed up very
much in his favour, and almost directed an se-
suitt the jury found him guilty with the other
derenclanua, but recommended him to the merciful
consideration of the Court, and he was therefore,
ordered to pay a fine cf is. and to be discharged.
I rile conviction, however, still stands; and as, by
the rules of the Irousit-ttr-Vantreanal,-any sciss;bar
who shall have been convicted of iniadeszteanoor-or
any offence of the like characteris no longer eligible
to hold his seat, and is at any time liable to be_
removed, or would, at all events, be-compelled to
resign if the House of Commons were to -pass a
resolution upon the subject, it is understood that
Mr. Stapleton intends, immediately upon the re-
assembling of the Courts, to •apply for a new trial,
which, as• it is only a case of misdemeanour, he is
empowered to do, and there appears to lee very
little doubt that, Under the circumstances, the
Court would grant the application.- The. We et of
this would be, that inasmuch as one .defendint
cannot be tried upon a charge of conspiracy, it will
be necessary to re-open the whole proceedings
against all the other defendants, and there will be
a fresh trial of the case.—Divatclt.,

A deputation from the Cotton Supply Association of
Manchester, consisting of Mr. Cheetham, M.P., Mr.
Rushworth, Mr. Simpson, and Mr. Mosley, accompanied
by Mr. Henry Whitworth, secretary, transacted busi•
ness at the Board of Control on Saturday.

ASSASSINATION OF A TRADESMAN AT POItTBIIOIIITII.
PORTSMOUTH, Sunday Evening.—Shortly after t wet,.
last night, a man went to the house of Mrs. Tick, St
Thomas-street, Portsmouth, and asked for an interview
with Mr. Howard, who was a draper carrying on bust
nese in St. Mary's street, but lodged with Mrs. Vick.
Mr. Howard went to the door, and theman immediately
placed some weapon to his breast (spparently an air
gun), and discharged its contents.
There w
but the shot passed throughbody,iwdha no repor
t,
but died

his
minutes. The assassin decamped, and the police are
now scouring the town and adjacent country in search
of him. The affair, up to seven o'clock thiamaing, is
involved in mystery.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
have cured a wound in the leg of eleven years' standing.
Mr. Welch, chemist, of Brighton, states, in a letter to
Professor Holloway, dated Sept. 6, 1E55, that lire.
Catherine Hudson, of Cavendish-place, in that town,
had been suffering for eleven years from an ulcerous
wound in the leg, for which she bad been under medical
treatment in the London awl Brighton dispensaries,
but received no benefit therefrom ; the application,
however, of Holloway's Ointment, and the use of Hol-
loway's Pills, have effected a perfect cure.—Sold by

[ADVERTH.MENT.]—If to those why remove the greatest
amount of human mis-ry and promote in the highest degree
the stye of unman happiness, the highest timed of praise and
gratitude is due, it would be hard to• point to any man so
eminently deserving of that !need as Mr. Du Barry, the dis-
coverer of the new celebrated Rovalenta Arabic,' Food. The
good effected by others, whether patriots, politicians, or what
not. may to problematical, may be probable, it is at all
events, matter of hypothesis. The good done by Mr. Du
Barry is tangible, undoubted, unquestionable. Also of Fifty
Thousand of his countrymen—men of title and rank, and men
of lowliness and obscurity; men of learning and men of situ.

of the moon was distinctly visible thereon ; but the
thick passing clouds obscured the horizon, and seemed to
envelope that part where the eclipse was expected to be
visible. Altogether it was a dense disappointment. We
hope the "learned" travellers by railway may have had
better luck—if not now, on the " next appearance !"
