LATEST FROM ENGLAND.


 By the packet ship Napoleon, arrived yes- terday, having left Liverpool on the 24th ut. London papers of the evening of the Ssd, and Liverpool to the Q4th have been received.- They contsin little intelligence not anticipa- ted by the arrival of the Amethyst at Bos- tOn-the papers being only two days later than our last.
 The Duke of Wellington is still much in- disposed, although not seriously il. It is considered highly probable that be will resign office within few months, as, nOtwithstand- ing allthe care he takes of health, it is found tV be quite unequal tO the fatigues and anxie- ties of his situation. ..
 Mir. O'Connell still talks confidently ofta- king his seat on the resumption of the House. His friends say, that Ministers will not offer a. ny opposition to his doing SD but it is expec- ted that a furious onset will be made by the Orange members. Should he be unable to take his seat without new election for Glare. he will, it is supposed, be returned without opposition as MT. Vesey Fitzgerald has very handsomely signifed his intention not to d. vide the county on the subject.
 The aOth of April, as the London Courier informs us, was fixed for the Russian army to cross the Danube, and enter Bulgaria. Whilst the seiges of Silistria and Giurgevo were pas- sed, the main body would, it was supposed, pursue the same route it took last year to Choumla, and the Balkan. They are not likely to meet any serious opposition, till they had hoped that mutual design of peace would have induced the belligerents to avail themselves of the winter months for negocia- ton. Unfortunately that hope has been dis. appointed"
 The accounts relative to the progress of pacific negotiations at the Turkish capital continue to he vague and contradictory, whilst those relating to preparations for the vigorous prosecution of war, unequvOcally show that both parties ofthe belligerents are resolved on every exertion in order to render the ensuing campaign decisive. The preparations on the part of Russia are said to be great beyond example, and the Sultan continues to evince the same active, contemplating, and indomita- bIe spirit which has ever characterized him. The Pacha of Egypt has at length acceded to the pressing demands of the Sultan, and has agreed to send 12,OOO men to the Dan ube, under the command of Mahmoud Pa cha. The capture of Szoboli by part of the Russian Black Sea fleet, has been deemed of such importance that Te Deum has been eel ebrated Rt St. Petersburg on account ofit.- The roads were in very bad state, and it was not expected that any operations could be commenced in Bulgaria before the begin ming of May. Letters from Varna state that provisions were excessively dear there, and al- 90 at kavarno. It seems to be expected that the Black Sea will be the chief seat of the hostile operations, and the landings will be attempted on various parts of the shore in order to form, if possible, chain of posts in- to the very vicinity of COnstantinople, in or- der to divert the Sultan from the defence of the Balkan, by the alarm which he must feel for the safety of his capital. A letter from Ancona states that important movements and arrangements of the British and French fleets in the Mediterranean were continually report ed from the Greek and Italian ports. It is stated from other quarters that the blockade of Alexandria, Candia, and other Turkish ports b to be carried into execution without delay. The following is an extract from a letter dated Constantinople, 10th March, on the subject :-" It seems that the Russian fleet will really blockade Candia and Alexandria, forming a linc of ships from Boudroun along the coast of Candia to Alexandria. in order to hinder the landing of troops and provisions as well in Candia as the Dardaneles especial ly as it is affirmed that the Egyptian fleet is to go to Constantinople, in order to act, during the summer, in the Black Sea, in conjunction with the five ships of the line, two ffigates, four corvettes, and twelve brigs, now in the harbor of Constantinople."
 The Grand Vizier iH said to have at length reached Adrianople, and to have caused the Notifications of that place to be repaired and strengthened, which would seem to intimate an opinion on his part that the defles 0f the Bal. kan may not prove impenetrable, ,and that the war may break thro' it's barrier of mountains and overthrow the plains. An article from Vienna declares, that "not single English man has como to Constantlnople to ask to be employed, and that at this moment there is not in the Mussulman army any officer, who is "a subject of h,s Britannia Majesty.
 Accounts from the Banks of the Danube, dated the llth April, state that Grand Council of War was convoked at Vienna, whore aA the Generals in- Chief commanding troops tn the Provinces were assembled, but the object of the Council was not known. It probablyhad some reference to the resumption Of the war by the Russians.
 Accounts from Wallachia of the 97th of March, have just been received. They give the details of a severe affair near Varna, in which the Russians sustained great loss.-- Probably an old story.l
 Pir0tes in .fdir sg0y.-The following ex. tract of a letter from Havanna will be grati- flying to all sailors, and sailors friends:
 We have at last caught some of the pirates, and find them to be citizens of Havanna l; they will be hanged. One of them in prison requested to send four segars. from himselc to his father as present. This singular cir cumstance of prisoners sending presents a- A.A Al
