FO REIGN NE WIS
ARRIVAL OF THE BRITISH QUEEN.

Naval and Military preparations against the U
Sales.--future for war-Panc produced by the
news taken out by the George Washington in re-
lation to the Bank of the United Satcs-Lae news
from China, India and Egyp, by extraordinary ex-
press, and furnished by special express to the Sun
alone.
From the New York Sun.
The Queen experienced a very rough and dsa :
greeable passage and on the 30h ult., having then
been out ~ days found herself obliged to put into
Halifax for fuel. She left Halifax on the ls,, and
made the passage to this port in three days.
The news she brings is of the most intense interest
|and we hasten to lay it before anxously expecting
public.
Our London Agent, acting upon our special nstruc-
|tons to an Express exclusively for the New York
|Sun whenever any news of importance warranted
|thc expense started from London for Portsmouth q
and Splthead on the morning OF the 10Th, with all
|the London morning papers of that date and our
usual files and letters from correspondents
The people of England appear to have been panic
struck at the intelligence which reached that country
by the packets Washington, United States and West
leicester, from New York. The first named vessel
took out the news of the soppage Of the United States
Bank-the second, that of the indictment of Mcleod
and the Westminster Mr. Pckens' Report in Congress
ION the Mcleod affair." These three causes combined :
Icreated sudden panic among all classes of persons
land the Funds at the Stock Exchange were materially
lowered IN consequence.
We find it quite impossible in our limited space to
give at this moment synopsis of the comments
.of the press upon this intelligence: but upon Mr. |
Pckens' Report, which to have created the !
greatest shock, the Globe says-"The painful effect
(which this incorporate party document must other
wise produce the srongy cherished hopes of the
3people of this country of an amlcable adjustment Of
the dispute, will be much relieved by the tone of the
principal speakers in the debate which ensued the
3qucstion of printing the Report"
The Morning Chronicle of the 9th says:The pu-
.bcaon of this report created considerable uneasness
In this feeling we confess, we do not altogether par
uclpate. The very men who drew up this document
t1,aC
Hwere putting their names to case upon which mol
naton would venture to enter upon hostllities Ihej
8langnage of the report is not the language of men|
Hwho either convinced that they had good cause
Hor were determined To 90 to extremltles in bad one
The Times says.-We shall not quote from this of
enslve and unjust TRADE, bur we earnestly invoke our
readers to study it in ertenSo for themselves and them
Judge what chance exists of fair lust treatment or
Great Britain from those authorities with which SUCH
IA catalogue of insults could have originated
If the Harrison Government be, We believe it
5wIll be, against the report there not ground to
Eear that they may be too feeble TO resist the war
saction
q From the Money articles in the same papers, we
Efnd that this American news caused panic IN the
Edmarkets

SBank will great deal OF misery here well as
Din America Shares which brought two years ago

The Morning Herald says ''the financial and poll
teal news from New York produced considerable
impression the Stock Market but the depth Of this
IMPRESSION would be i'll measured by the actual decline
Hmecly in quotations of stocks for mus, be renrem
bcred that the funds were on the rise and with hr
tendency 10 a greater rise still.
X The Globe Of the 9th says The arrival OF ih'
West Chester from New York, whence she sailed OF
the 10th of February brings certain Information tina
Sthe Congress Of the United States, by the lame ma
jority of 03 against &C. had voted in favor of the re
port on the Mcleod affair, which was calculated Il
excite hostliiles with England The subject belni
thus taken np by Congress, the government must o
course act in conformity with the will of the naiori',
and therefore the chance of seeing the acts OF the IN
terror jurisdiction of the State of New ork overrnet
by HE General Governments no longer exists
makes the danger OF n collision more imminent thai
lever Our citizens viewing it in this light have show
much greater degree of alarm regarding the question
this morning than they did the receipt Of the pre-
Evious communication and stocks fell 3-9 or l-2 pc
Hccnt Immediately after the opening of business.

6news received Yesterday from America is wearing OF
Ghere; but we perceive that il is viewed in serou
light IN Lancashire where people have begun to pur
chase cotton largely, under the impression that som
6ncrrupton TO the trade with America may poss,b
take place, and that article has consequently advan
