LATER FROM EUROPE.
From the Peoria Register of last Saturday.
ARRIVAL OF THE BRITISH QUEEN.
This far-famed and long-expected stea.
mer arrived at New York on the 2sth.
We have letter from our New York cor
respondent, which says:
The news by this packet leaves but lit
tie doubt of the inability of your state to
borrow at this time, the needful funds for
conducting her Improvements.
The New York Times of the 2Sth says:
'sIhe monetary intelligence from Eng
land is still very unfavorable. There was
a great pressure in the London money
market, and the Bank of England was
about to raise the rate of interest to six
per cent?
This would seem to settle the question
of our railroad system-and we fear all
our internal mprovements-for the pres
ent.
Egypt and Turkey.-In the house Of
commons on the 9th July, lord Palmer
ston, in answer to a question from Mr..
Miles, expressed a hope that the quar-
rel between the Turkish sultan and Egyp-
tan pacha would be arranged; and that.
in the matter of Persia, the ambassador
for that government would not be receiv-
ed till certain conditions suggested by the
English government had been agreed to-"
Rumors of a great battle having been
fought between the Turkish and Egyp-
tan armies were current in Paris, but
their authenticity was doubted. All ac-
counts concurred in stating that sultan
Mahmoud was in dying state.
1eras.-1n answer to Mr. o cornell his
lordship stated, that ''as it was known
that our minister at Mexico had success
fully negotiated between France and Mex
leo, instructions had been sent out to en-
deavor to effect similar arrangement be-
tween Mexico and Texas
Spaim.-ln reply to a question from
lord Mahon, lord Palmerston observed
that s'every thing would be done to hui
mamie the war in Spain; that the Rus
sian government had expressed strong
wish to put an end to the digraceful afro
cities which characterized it, but that no
particular plan had yet been announced
The Birmingham riots.-Some further
popular movements had occurred at Bir-
mingham, which had however been quell-
ed at the expense Of few broken heads,
and at 5 o'clock on the evening of the
10th, the latest date ,--the town was per-
fectly quiet. The injured policemen are
all doing well.
Lady Flora Hastings.--A post NOR
tenn examination Of the body of this un-
fortunate lady was made on the 5th Of Jul
! ly, and the result proved beyond all doubt
/ that the assaults on her fair fame have
been false and slanderous.
GOVERNOR MoRRow.-We have sell
dom, says the Cincinnati Chronicle, met
with more chaste and eloquent passage
! than the following. 1t is the concluding
paragraph of the discourse of this venera-
BILE citizen of Ohio, delivered by him, at
the laying of the corner stone of the new
capitol
''But in reference to the object more
Immediately in our view | pronounce that
Ohio, member of this great republic, by
her assembled people, this day lays the
corner stone of her future Capitol. Let
the foundations be deep and strong; let the
materials be Of natures most lasting gifts
-durable-imperishable let .t,,,e edi6ce
rise IN solemn, simple grandeur, monu.
ment OF cht.aste and classic beauty. And
ray the lightnings Of Heaven, which
seattle, and the whirlwind and storm
which PROSTATE the works of man, pas:
by and spare this house, erected by ;
mighty people, and consecrated to socia
and constitutional government. And may
the councils of truth, and justice, and pub
lie virtue reside in its halls; may discort
and faction be put far from them; and may
a free and united people, who reared it
and whose temple it is, watch over ant
cherish within its walls the form and spir
it of their republican institutions. AM
may the blessings Of benign Providence
now and through all coming time, res
!, upon this people and upon this house, tn
!, work of their hands.
/ l now lay the Corner Stone Of the Cap
itol of Ohio.''
ENTAILED EsTATE.-Every man VIII
! desires to entail a valuable and endurin
, inheritance ON his children which canno
!, be locked; Of which rogues cannot dc
fraud them, and on which the sheri
can't levy execution, and which the
can't ALLEVIATE by a general assignment
may accomplish his wishes by bringin
j them up in habits of persevering industr
) in any useful calling, by instilling int
them habits Of sound economy; and, abov
E all, by imbuing their minds with corret
j and practical views ofmoral and religion
