LEoisL ATIvE.-Ths Legislature are now most
Ofths time engaged in the consideration of local
bills, Of which there appears to Be- great number
The bank bills are still in the hands of the COM
mites on the currency of the Senate. There are
varohs projects suggested to raise funds to enable
the State to finish the most important other pub
lie improvements. One of these land the most
plausible, in our humble opinion,) is that the
Fund Commissioners be authorized to issue checks
upon the Treasury on time, as has been done in
Illinois. These would circulate as bills, which
might be received and held by the laborer without
fear of their becoming suddenly worthless.
The Senate has indefinitely postponed Mr..
Carke's bill to Gust the State printer; which had
passed the house. On the Sth inst. the Senate
eOneurred in the resolution from the House to
adjourn on the 29th of March. The whig House
first passed this resolution; but the wings of the
Senate, almost to man, voted against it, after
the democrats had evinced willingness to pass
il. There now seems but little chance for the
passage of a bank bill. At any rate, after an al
most frutless session, our Legislators have, per-
haps wisely, resolved to go home, " report pro-
gress, and ask leave to sit again"

NEWS FROM EUROPE.

The steamer President arrived at New
York on the Sd inst, bringing London
dates of the evening of February 9TH
We have only room at present to give eX-
tracts from the news in our exchange pa
pcrs. A messenger has come out with
dispatches 10 the Bash minister at
Washington.
The most interesting item is the de-
bate in both houses of Parliament on the
case of Mcleod. Ii was introduced in the
Commons by Lord Stanley, who ques-
toned Lord Palmerston on the history of
the affair, and its present state. The
minister said that he believed Mcleod
was moi concerned in the affair of the
CaroIine-the government had sent in
structons to the minister al Washington,
but in the present state of the negotiation
he declined producing the correspondence
ON the subject.
Lord Stanley pressed the question
whether there had been any steps taken
for the Liberation of McLeod-but no more
definite reply was made. Mr.. Hume al
luded 10 the fact that the American gov
ernment had demanded two years ago
whether the burning of the Caroline was
avowed by the British government, and
that no answer had as yet been given
Mr.. O'Connell said the life of Mcleod
was at stake, and he wished the House to
declare that til, y would stand by the gov.
eminent in preserving it.
On Tuesday the 9th, the debate was
resumed, and in the course of it Lord
Palmerston admitted that the government
approved Of the burning Of the Caroline.
The conversation WIS getting rather warm
when Sir Robert Peel interposed by mo-
ton on the affairs of Persia.
The English papers are very bitter on
this topic, and the tories we're more inso-
lent than usual.
The President brought over dispatches
from Mr.. Stevenson, our Minister at Lon
don.
The news from China is to Nov. 8, and
was not considered satisfactory. 1t is yet
doubtful whether the celestials have not
been playing double game with Admiral
Ellot-and the Times gravely intimates
that certain stars and stripes from the
west may have finger in the pie before
it is dispLsed Of. 1t is said that the dis
grace of Lin was merely nominal; and
that Elliot would have TO turn bac k to Pc
kin. Meanwhile a fatal sickness was
prevailing among the British troops, and
a large portion Of them was in the hOspi' |
tails.
TURKEY AND EGYPT.
The Turkish fleet, having been given
up by Mehemet Ali, sailed from Alexan-
dria on the 3lst January. Commodore
Napier had returned to Alexandria, with
the treaty, which was agreed to by the
Pacha. Ibrahim had left Damascus for
GAIA, and preparations were going on Tor
embarking his troops.
FRANCE.
The fortifcation bill had passed in the
Chamber Of Deputies by vote of 2S7
against 1862. The editor and publisher of
La France had been arrested on a charge
of forgsry-for fabrica ting the letters
said to have been written by the King.
