POSTSCRIPT.
From the New York American, May z.

From Europe the numerous arrivals Of yesterday
brings US late, but very significant intelligence,
The question ofthe greatest moment in England,
the appointment Of a successor to Lord Liverpool,
remains undecided. Mr. Canning is the man Indi-
Gated by popular opinion; but the aristocracy Of
England, the whole tory party-the high church par
ty-the Lord Chancellor, and perhaps the monarch
himself, are averse to his becoming the Premier.
The state of Spain seems to become more unset
tied and as to Portugal, we one day learn that the
soil of Portugal purged of the rebels, and days
that they have re-entered upon it in force. Great in
efficiency, certainly, is manifested in putting down
this rebellion As for the British troops, they have
remained idle spectators OF passing events, ever
since they landed in Portugal. Their presence,
doubtless, gives confidence to the royalists but aid,
active aid and co operation, as yet they have not
afforded.
The Greeks have reprovsioned the Acropolis--
K are prosperous. The negotiation going on at Con-
stantnople may, rather hope, fail, by the refusal
of the Turks to accept the European mediation, be-
eving do, that in such an event, the Egyptians
would find it necessary to go home. and then the
Greeks couIdwork out their own emancipation from
the Turk

ted saying that time enough had been taken to form
new cabinet, and it was understood that seven OF

when they would return, it was not worth while to
wait. The djournment, hor ever, was carried.
