NEXT News FROM EURoPE.-The next news
from Europe must be interesting. There are seve-
raj packets now on the ocean, and an arrival with
three or four days later news may bring us the
great speech of Daniel O'Conne in his own de-
fence before the criminal court in Dublin, and per-
haps the verdict of the jury in this case. What
that will be, one of course can now tell ; but
whatever 1t be, it will lead to many curious events
in the course of the year.
Another important part of the next news will be
that respecting the excitement in the cotton mar
ket. This movement which has created so much
noise throughout this country is one that interests
materially the commercial classes here, and all in
telligence relative to it will be looked for with
great anxiety. The chances however, now are,
according to the best informed opinion, that the
element will gradually die away in England-that
il never had any real basis-thal it merely resulted
from the exuberance of the moment in consequence
of the general return of prosperity in England and
that all those who expected great and permanent
rise in cotton will be entirely disappointed.
Then again, the movements in the British Par
lament will be looked tor with great interest, in
reference to the irish question and the further ef-
forts Of the free trade party in opposition to the
present ministry. Instead of checking the progress
Robert Peel that he would not touch the subject,
will only lead to the commencement of still
warmer campaign. This agitation must go on year
after year, until its authors succeed to some extent
at all events.
In order to give our readers as early as possible
the first intelligence on all of these points by the
next arrival, we have made every arrangement
with our newsboat establishment, and shall proba-
bly, be enabled as heretofore to give the news in
advance of all our contemporaries.
ANOTHER DErALcArIoN.-We understand that the
Fourth of-July Convention party, who made a
great noise here two or three weeks ago, have not
yet paid Mrs. Lynch, Frankfort street, for the use
of the room, gas lights, &c during the meet
ing at which they nominated their second dele
gates to the general convention on the district
plan.
1t will be recolected that this young party, led
on ''to the deadly breach" by General Duff Green,
had their first large meeting in Vauxhall, where they
came into the world, and their second at Mrs.
Lynch's where they almost exploded, for we have
not heard of them since. They began with de-
termination to organise the "young democracy
in favor Of Calhoun or any body but Van Buren,,
and they came into the field as fierce as a young
lion. Well, since their second meeting we have
concern has evaporated, but unfortunately, as the
good Widow Lynch says, Z" They used my room,
my tables, my chairs, my gas-dnd never got no.
thing for it-they didn't even get drink at my bar
them couldn't be much of dimmicrats, should
think" Nor do we, good Widow.
The DEFALcATIoN IN New JERsEY.-The CON-
mittee of the legislature who have examined the
accounts of Isaac Southland, late Treasurer of the
State, report him defauter to the amount of
$4,9O7 SO. A mere bagatelle! clerk in New
York can steal twice as much any morning before
breakfast.
Mr.. CLAY IN MoBnE.-The glorious and magn-
hcen, Harry Clay-the President that is to beat
tended the Mobile theatre on the evening OF the
18th ult The play was the "Her at Law" with
the vaudeville of the 'Swiss Cottage" Tom Pla-
eide and Mr.. Smith were the leading artists
Mr.. Clay arrived in Mobile on the morning of
the 25th which was the Sabbath. He was receiv-
ed very quietly, owing to the holiness of the day.
In New Orleans or Mobile they never begin to
blow of the steam on the Sunday till after service
then look out.
AMELIA NoRMAN.-Several rumors have been in
circulation for some days past, to the effect that
this unfortunate being had left the house of Mrs.
the result Of enquiries made, we are now able to
state that these are altogether false and that
Amelia still remains under the protection of tn at
benevolent lady, and that she is engaged in the
study Of morals philosophy, religion and sewing.
One Of the papers had paragraph stating that she
was seen promenadIng Broadway last Sunday, in
company with an elderly lady. 1t appears that the
only promenade on that occasion was walking TO
church, in company with her protectress, and re-
turning home-a promenade that it would be well
for the authors of those false rumors to make eve
ry Sunday.
We have every reason to believe that these ma
licous stories have been put in circulation by some
of the associates of her seducer-a fact which af-
fords additional evidence, if it had been needed, OF
the heartlessness and wckedness of such wretches
THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT ASSOCIATION are
beginning to move again. They have issued copies
of plan offered by Mr.. Pollard, but they have not
yet decided on it. Mr.. Poard's plan resembles
good deal that of the magnificent monument to
Sir Walter Scott, at Edinburgh, of which Mr..
Dick has published an elegant and accurate engra-
wing. The object Of the association is highly me-
ritorious, and we shall be very happy in seeing
them succeed. But some how or other in these
days. patriotic admiration is not so very prone to
cxpending itself in the shape of dollars. However,
we shall see.
Mr. PALMo's BENEFrT.-This will be indeed a
grand affair The arrangements have been admi-
rable throughout, and the greatest enthusiasm ex-
lists, especially among the fashionable circles, to
make il in the highest degree complimentary TO Mr.
Palmo. Signor De Begins will appear on the &C.
casion. This will give il a new feature, The bill
~ the most attractive one possible,
