ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT WESTERN
TEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.


The Great Western, Capt Iloskins, arrived yes'er-
day morning at New York, in twelve and hail aSys
from Liverpool.
The Liverpool papers are still complaining al Tue
abundance Of money-the m,heaib'y superiority oil II
in the mercantile world, while interest can only be
obtained from bankers the extent Of two per cent
the money holders will 10 stocks railroads, &c,
both foreign and domestic.
The English papers are filled with accounts of
murders our own are.
Mr. Edward Everett, the American minister, has
written letter TO the Ntto Farmers Journal, to con
tradcl the statement reported TO have been made by
Mr. Joseph Hume, M. r. at a meeting OF the Anu
Corn.law League in Drury Lane Theatre, namely,
that at public meeting held in September last al
which the Duke of Rutland presided, Mr. Everett,
the American minister, stated that bacon, which
would bring Cd per pound here was actually used as
fuel for steamboats, with them, having no other way
Of getting rid Of the superhuity." " II this remark
is correctly ascribed To Mr.. Hume" says MIR Eve
rett " in the report of his speech II must have been
made in consequence OF INSTRUMENTATION as 10 what
was said by the occasion alluded 10 no such
statement that in question having ever been made
by me-"
The discussion of the right Of visit or the right OF
search-call it which you like, for In America
the terms held TO be identical, while IN England
they held to be very dssimilar-has been revived
sler's despatch to Mr.. Everett which came to hand
on Tuesday. Mr.. Webster adheres, with becoming
pertinacity, to his views, which every one on this
side, admits 10 be ably sustained and the British
Government, depend upon it, will adhere with no
IS pertinacity to theirs But the question: after all,
is rather abstract than practical and, with The no.
nesty of purpose which Mr. Webster claims for the
United States in putting down the slave trade, can
not be productive of any collision.
Death Of the Duke Of Stlsser.-Ihe death OF the
DIXIE nj W hO ex,lr at his apartments al
kenslngton, on Friday the 2lst inst, about half past
II in the day. has excited more than ordinary alien
ton. For some days previous not the slightest hope
was entertained Of his recovery, and the fatal term
nation Of his illness, though excited little surprise
has been productive Of almost universal feeling OF
regret al his loss The journals most opposed to the
liberal politics of the Duke express the highest re-
spect for his amiabe and independent character, and
becoming estimation OF his scholarship and attain
ments.
