LATER FROM EUROPE.

The packet ship WESTMINSTER, Capt. Atwood
arrived last evening in 90 days from Portsmouth
She brings London dates to the 7th, three days
later than were before received. By some unac-
countabe mistake we received none of our files
and are indebted to the courtesy of the Editors Of
the Courier {. Enquirer for the use of theirs.
From England and France we find no items Of
news worth copying. The markets remained in
their former state and nothing in business, political
or general circles has occurred of any Importance.
A summary of the only intelligence Of any interest
by this arrival may be found below. The West
minister brings 63 passengers.
FROM INDIA AND CHINA.-The Bombay Times

gives the following summary of the news from this
Quarter. 1t will be seen that there is nothing very
satisfactory, though it was thought the British in
tended to advance upon Cabool:
..The task of prer~.;"g a summary is, on the
exepour occasion, aperPlexing one. Though our
narrative extends over period of 40 days-from
the 10Th July to the 9th August-we have little
TO relate as TO matters which have occurred-much
on which TO speculate Is on the eve of disclosure.
China news of great moment may be on the way,
and NAV vet reach in time for the mail, though too
late for our paper; while we have every reason to
believe that movements are already aioat all along
our N. W. frontier, and so on through Central Asia,
which will shortly arrest the attention of Europe
