FROM EUROPE.

FROM EUROPE.
The ship New England arrived this fore
noon at this port, in 36 days from Liverpool,
bringing advices thence to the Doth of Nav.
1t is rumored that Mr. Peel threatens to
resign, IN consequence of his annoyance at
the prospect of Catholic Emancipation.
The repeal of the Test and Corporation
Acts is to be celebrated in London, by a
grand dinner, and in other parts of the
kingdom by similar rejoicings. The Rev.
Rowland Hill, who is now nearly ninety
years of age, and his faculties but little i'm
paired, spoke thus in his sermon on Sunday.
llth May, respecting the repeal of the Cor
poration and Test Acts: "bless God that |
have lived to see the repeal of this abomin-
able act, which required you to take an
oath that you had received the sacrament
before you could hold any worldly Office"
FRANCE. French papers of May Is, re-
ceived in London, state that peace had
been finally concluded between France and
Algiers. The Moniteur of the 18th is near
ly filed with reports of debates on the pro-
posed loan, in which the merits of the Turk
ish war are freely discussed. Gen. Andre
ossi declared that since the days of Peter
the Great, Russia had but two objects in
view, Poland and Constantinople. All the
wars with the Turks had been undertaken
for that object, and every war had advanced
it n step. Now there was only one more to
take, and after that India must enter into
the views of Russia (; for those must be very
confident who would fancy that the immod-
crate thirst of ambition would expire on
the rock of st. Helena.
PORTUGAL. Very late accounts from
Portugal, announce the important fact that
the Usurper, Don Miguel, was at length
placed under the ban of the European Pow
ers. 1t is not clearly said that he had as
sumed the title of King, but he had assem-
bled the three estates of the kingdom for
the purpose Of receiving it at their hands
and having caused his resolution to be COM
municated to the Foreign Ministers, they
had all, without excepting the Ambassador
of Spain, written notes to announce that
their functions had ceased.
The EAST. The London Times Of Nav
4 10, contains copy from the Hamburg pa
pers Of the Order of the day issued by the
! Emperor Nicholas at st. Petersburg, after
having reviewed his guard, and conducted
I them with the Empress and the Grand Duke
| Michael out of the Capital, in the midst OF
the enthusiastic shouts of the soldiers and
the people.
| The Emperor was to leave st. Petersburg
on the 9TH of May, and to reach the army
on the 18th at Ismael, of bloody memory
Orders had been previously issued for the
passage of the Pruth and the Danube stimuli
( taneously, in the morning of the 9TH, when
the troops were to begin their march i'm
mediately through the shortest road to Con-
stantinople A levy of two men out Of
every 500 in Russia had been ordered, to
meet any exigency arising from prolonga-
ton of the war.
/ Letters from Jassy, April ., state thai
an envoy from the Ottoman Porte had ar
rived in that city with dispatches for the
n,---;--- Woo Ennsnl--who was requested
to forward them to head quarters. The cir,
cumstance had revived the hope Of peace al
Jassay.
/ Attempts have been made without effect
| in Paris, to raise the means of fitting out a
small naval force for the use of the Greeks.
Lord Cochrane is said to be very reserved
as to his future intentions; and lives in re-
tirement with his family near Paris.
PARIS, May IA. The Russian armies
( have crossed the Pruth-they will cross the
Danube, and are now in full march for Con
stantinople. Instead of 10000 men, who
would have been sufficient to invade Wal
| lachia and Moldavia, 100000 are in motion
| The Black Sea is covered with vessels
Odessa is filed with provisions and warlike
J implements. The sword is unsheathed, and
at the head quarters of the Russian Com
mander-in- Chief alone must the Turks ac-
knowledge their submission to the Treaty
Of Ackerman; to the Treaty of the 9th July,
( and to the promise of paying the expense
of the war, if they wish to arrest the tor
rent which threatens to overwhelm them -
A letter of recent date from CONSTANT
nople says =" The prosecution against the
Armenians having commenced, the Foreign
Ambassadors wished to interfere in their
favor, but the victims entreated them to
abandon them to their fate. The women
themselves urge the men not to take any
humiliating step. Hassan Pacha, who had
always conducted himself we'll towards this
people, accepted from them a present of
100000 piastres, which was offered him by
the Christians that remained in the capital :
but no sooner had he received the money,
than he RENTED it to the Sultan, to be en-
ployed in the purchase of war stores, &c.
SMYRNA, April 3. awe understand that
such vessels, coming from Alexandra, as

to take on board Ibrahim's troops, to carry
them back to Egypt, are no longer allowed

English Admirals, in conjunction with Count
Capo d'Istra, have given orders for the block
ade of all ports of the Peninsula occupied
by the Turks and Egyptians"
