The Caledonia, Capt Lott, arrived at Dos
ton at / o'clock Oh Monday night.
She sailed from Liverpool OH the afternoon
of the 18th inst,
We are indebted to the express Of Messrs
Adams & Co., for the European Times, from
which, and our New York contemporaries, we
make up the following summary.
The intelligence received by her is OF a char
actcr more important than any that has reach
ed US since the war Of 1912.
There has been AN important debate in the
British Parliament on the Oregon, disclosing
the view Of Engla on that subject; it was
deemed so important that the opinion of the
British Ministry should be known in America
that the Caledonia was detained one day IN Or
der 10 bring out the debate on the question
which took place in Parliament on the 4th in
slant, and which we give in another column.
The debate exhibits the ultimatum of the
British Government on this question, and we
only now expect serious difficulty between
Eng and and America. We do not see what
is to prevent it. America has assumed her po-
slton, and England has now taken hers. Nei-
ther, therefore, can recede an inch.
This state of things affected the money and
cotton markets oa the 9Th instant. Cotton be-
came firm and consols declined
Apart from this the news is unimportant.
The railway fever continues undated in
England.
The spring is extremely backward in Great
Brltaln-which is altogether more favorable for
the fruit crop.
The operation Of the new tariff, especially as
respects foreign free grown labor sugars, is be-
coming more general than was in the first in
stance contemplated.
The general produce markets are very firm,
and considerable amount Of business Is doing
privately in woods, indgoes and cotton woods
Money continued plentiful.
The execution of John Tawell, the Quaker
seems to have excited prodigious interest.
| Nothing important from France.
The Queen and Prince Albert 60 to Ireland
in July.
| The French Government intend TO organize
line of Trans Atlantic mail steamers imme-
diately. The Minister of Marine has reported
a law, precisely like that of ls4l, by which
four steamers are to run between Cherbourg
and New York.
1t was reported in Dublin, last week, that
Mr.. O'Connell, unable longer to Withstand the
pressure from the leaders of the Young Ireland
party, will attempt, in the course of the ensu-
ing summer to reorganze monster meetings
on the same scale as those which created so
much apprehension in the year lS43.
1t appears that O'Connell has become per-
fectly rabd on the subject of the annexation of
Texas. 1t is reported that he could not find
words in the English language to express his
contempt for Shareholders, and for Americans
generally.
The RIGHT OF SEARCH Another subject
OF transatlantic interest-the right of search
has been incidentally discussed in the House of
Commons. Lord Palmerston is extremely net
tied that any change or modification should
take place, or be even contemplated on this his
pet scheme. He travelled out of the record to
attack the government, and made the debate
on the Navy Estimates the vehicle of doing So
That Guizot should demand the cancelling of
the treaties Of 1881 and 1888, proves his ire,
but that Peel should listen to the proposition.
throws HIM into Mysteries. The reply of Sir
X. Peel was spirited and to the purpose. He
denied, that the right of search was now sus-
pended, but he alluded to the conference be-
tween the Duke de Broghe and DR.. Lushng
ton as being likely to terminate in some ar
arrangement.
COMMERCIAL, The Cotton market early in
the week was dull and prices tending to recede.
The detention of the steamer to carry out the
Oregon debate made the market firmer Sales
yesterday were 5000 bales at highest quotation.
The same cause.-the Oregon-that sent cotton
up sent shares down. No other change since
the Great Western sailed. Colonial trade slow.
In tea, sugar and spirits, decline. The ho-
days, and other causes, have tended to the de-
preston.
IMPORTANT DEBATE ON OREGON.
HOUSE OF LORDS, April Acknowledgements
Lerd Clarendon, in the House of Lords, intro
duced the subject Of the Oregon Territory, in
order to elicit from the Government some in
formation as to our relations with the United
States upon this question, and the course it
was intended to pursue in case Congress, act
ing upon the expressed opinion of the Presi-
dent, should proceed to take possession of the
country, or to annex it to the United States.
His Lordship, after briefly noticing the con-
duct of America towards Texas, and the extra
ordinary terms in which Mr.. Polk had declared
the unequivocal right of the United States to
the whole territory, temperately reviewed the
grounds on which the British claims are found
ed, and concluded by expressing his anxious
hope, that while whatever could be Justly
claimed should be readily conceded, the Gov
eminent would not shrink from indicating, i'll
necessary, the nations honor, or upholding her
interests.
He was succeeded in long speech from the
Earl of Aberdeen, who deprecated war and has
ty action, and hoped the question would finally
be settled amicably. Should il be otherwise, he
observed, 81 can only say that we possess rights
which, in our opinion, are clear and unoues-
tionabe-and, by the blessing of God, and your
support, those rights we are fully prepared to
maintain" Received with loud cheers.
