NEw-YoRK, March 4. LATEST FROM ENGLAND.

By the packet ship Britannia, Captain Mar shall, which arrived yesterday from Liver pool, we have received London papers to Feb ruary 9d, Loyd's List and London Shipping List to Jannary 31st, and Liverpool Price Currents to February 2d, all inclusive. The Britannia sailed cn the 2d of February.
 The public attention in the English papers appeared to be principally occupied, at the time the Britannia sailed, by the trial of MT O'Connell and some of his associates, at Dub lin. They had been arragned, and prcpa- raticns were making to bring on the trials in few days. The following is an extract of a letter from Dublin, published in the Courier of January 2Sth.
 s'Janudry 26.-The proceedings in the Court of Kings Bench yesterday have given a turn to affairs, which must lead, and that most speedily, to crisis. If the Judges diff fcred, as to the legality of the prosecuti. n, from the Grown, the crisis might have been delayed but as Mir O'Ccnnell's conviction is now beyond doubt, the crisis is at hand.- Pray do not undervalue the danger of that crisis. You may rely on it that blood will flow in the streets of Dublin. l do not, mind me, apprehend general nsurrection, but I feel as convinced as do of my own existence, that large masses of the population will rise II QtIftItHt DdTlS VI lilC ,-iHdt tilI men n Dublin, who went forth to meet o. Cornell on his return from England, will mt be idle on the day of his conviction, but still less so on the day when he shall be sent t. prison. The military must act. or the mobs will let in the fresh air to O'Connell's prison. The crisis then is near, and know that the Orangemen and the Protestant party expect it :; they are prepared for it. They are arm cd, they are organised, they are comfrrted by the sympathy which prevails towards them in England, and they have no apprehensions as to the result. It is with them, they feel not alone a question of poltics-their very exis- tence as Prctcstants is the question now agi- tated On the other hand it would be decei- ving you to deny that there is not a strong feeling throughout the Catholic population of the country, in favor of repeal of the Legis- lative Union. The proprietary of Ireland are opposed firmly to the repeal. They re- gard domestic Parliament in Ireland as an impracticability, and never was there. in my humble opinion. any proposition more true. Many, indeed the majority of the respectable Catholics, who were most loud in their agita ticn for emancipation, have kept aloof from .O'Connell. They don't like his scheme for repeal They think that it would be most disastrous occurrence for Ireland, but I ra- ther think they did not approve of the putting down the discussions on the subject of Pro- clamation."
 There is also good deal of excitement cn the continent, respecting the question of who shall be King of Belgium. The .Belgians. or at least large portion cf them, are desrouss of having for their sovereign. the Duke of ,euchtenburg, sen of Eugene Beauharnois, and grandson of the Empress Josephine. The king of France objects to his race who' though they have no Bonaparte blood Tn theif veins, may be supposed to have imbibed snme of the family characterby inncculatlon me dispute causes much discussion ana converse tion. How it will terminate IS uncertain. n the cpnion of some newspaper spectators the question of peace or war turns upon it.- But if France objects to him, and the other nowers do net approve of him, we do not sec any necessity for their quarreling with eacf other about it. . ..,
