NEW YORK, Nov. 23.—News from Europe, via Halifax,
was published here to-day, at three o'clock. Flour has
advanced .50 cents. Market unsettled. Prices of wheat
and corn are nominal ; holders asking considerable ad-
vance. The money market to-day is stringent ; fancy and
standard stocks dull and declining. Cotton is dull and
receding.

BREACH OP PROMISE OF MARRIAGE—RUSSELL V.
SIIORTALL.—The defendant is a teacher under the National
Board of Education. The plaintiff was of a respectable
family, and was schoolmistress in the Ballinrobe Union.
In the summer of the present year the defendant visited
Ballinrobe, saw the plaintiff (this being their first and last
interview), and was so smitten that he proposed marriage,
and was accepted, the plaintiff resigning her situation.
He was, however, married to another person on the very
day appointed for his marriage with the plaintiff, who then
brought the present action. The damages were laid at
£3OO. The case was heard in the Dublin Exchequer
Court, on Tuesday last. The plaintiff's letters, which
were of the usual character, were read. The jury found
for the plaintiff, and gave £75 damages.

MR. SMITH O'Bitr-EN.-31r. Smith O'Brien has addressed
a letter to the editor' of Galignani's Messenger, with
reference to a statement in the Limerick Chronicle, that
his friends intended to sclicit the Emperor of the French
to use his good offices in obtaining an unconditional par-
don for the exile. Such an application, he says, has not
been sanctioned or prompted by him. It does not, he says,
seem consistent with the digtlity of his country to solicit
foreign intervention on behalf of the Irish political exiles;
and be would rather remain fi
Ir ever an exile from the
land which be loves, than return I..,.nder restrictions incom-
patible with his personal limo:1r or the rights,antl:duties
of an Irish gentleman.

Various accounts continue to be given of the losses in

The Rason, screw steamer, was at Varna on the 15th;
the report of her having been on shore is unfounded.
The Harbinger, screw steamer, was off Balaklava on
