LATE FROM EUROPE.

l. L.
BY the arrival last evening of the ship
Robert Fulton, Capt. Holdridge, in 33
days from Liverpool, the Editors OF the
New York Daily Advertiser have re-
ceived files of London papers to the
evening of the Sd of January, and Liver
pool papers and Prices Current to the
sth of January, all inclusive. We had
only time to make hasty summary OF
the various articles of intelligence con-
tanned in these papers. The London,
and indeed all the English papers that
we have seen, Of late date, contain the
Message of the President OF the United
States at full length. This state paper
appears to be sought after by the English
Editors with great avidity.
The Turks appear to be in rather q
perilous situation. On the one side a
numerous army Of Persians pursues its
march; Russian army bounds the from
tiers OF Europe; while the Greeks have
become masters of Patras, sc.
ENGLAND.
We End nothing Of great interest re-
speeding England. The papers are
much occupied with detailing the parti-
culars of the destruction caused by the
floods, and specializing on the move
ments of the other powers.
The Leeds Intelligenccr mentions the
robbery of the BURNLEY and Skipton
Mail Post. The rolAers did not sue
coed in dismounting the rider, but tore
the left side of bis coat quite down, and
took from his pocket aparccl containing
1870 pounds in one guinea notes, 900 one
pound do. all ofthe Craven Bank. The
driver escaped will, the mail bags.
IRELAND.
The outrages still continue in this
country. On Christmas day man
named Stack, was dragged ont Of his hut
and shot through the heart. A Cork
paper mentions that whole family by
the name. of Whitcstcne, Is in number)
were burn. alive at Charleville on the
Esd Of December This story turns out
10 be mere fabrication.
The papers contain details from many
towns in England and Ireland, respect
ing the obstruction caused by the late
heavy rains, which had inundated the
country, whereby many lives were lost,
ard much property destroyed.
FRANCE.
Intelligence from Paris state, that q
sort of plot against the government had
broken out at SaGenlur, in the south of
France. The conspira:ors were the pu-
pills ola military school; the force en-
ployed to subdue the nlutincers was a
portion of their fellow co!legians who
promptly and efectually executed the
task.
The Duke dc CIUiseu, and Nj. Brcno
lie Doisgelin have given in their rcsigna-
tons of Major General and Aide Major
General OF the National Guard OF Paris.
Their places have been supplied by
Count Su,es de Ho,ignac, and the VS.
count Josthane dc la Rocheloucault.
A fire broke out at Sauemur, on the
18th December--five persons lost their
lives. The Paris papers do no, mention
the amount OF property destroyed.
SPAIN.
The events in Corunna have taken .
more favorable turn. Intelligence from
Galicia state that Nina had delivered up
The military command of,hc Province 10
Don Ramon Lopez, who had caused
Gen. Lastrc to be recognized as General
Commandment Of the Province. 1t was
the general opinion that there would be
speedy return to order. 1t was ex-
pec,cd that the news OF the resolution
adopted by the Cortes, for demanding
the reorganization ofthe Ministry would
powerfully contribute to the re-cstablisl,-
mcnt Of that order which had been dis
turbed through the tliscontents of the
Ministry. After three days of debating
in the Cortes, NJ. Calatrava proposed
resolution to the following effect:
"A message shall be addressed to his
Majesty, stating to him that the Cortes,
considering that the present Ministry
have not the moral force for the proper
ly conducting the government of ma
ton, and causing the dignity and prcro-
gatives Of the throne 10 be respected,
hope that his Majesty will, in the excr-
else of his powers, deign to take such
measures as the situation of the king
dom SO imperiously requires" This
resolution was adopted by q majority Of
lo4 TO 50.
In several of the provinces, however,
disturbances still continued and some
battles had been fought between the dil-
ferent political parties.
Cadiz and Seville have submitted TO
