LATER FROM EIR0PE.

By the Steamer CAMHRIA, arrived al
Boston from Liverpool, on the I'd instant,
We have adyices from Europe two weeks
later than previous. The news is Of some
Importance, Cotton remains steady in
prices.
One Of the most interesting pieces of
intelligence BY this arrival is that relative
to the Mexican letters Of marque. The
impression IN Europe, and particularly in
Great Britain, was strong that Mexico had
declared war against The United States,
and many merchants had despatched fast
sailing vessels to the Gulf to obtain author.
tty to pirate upon American commerce.
From the Dublin Mercantile Advertiser.
The last accounts from Mexico show,
that however much the Mexican Govern,
meut may be disposed for war against The
UuIted States, they sorely lack the means.
Il is By the issue Of letters Of marque to
pryateers, that any serious annoyance
can be given to the trade Of the United
States. We have learned that a number
Of vessels have proceeded 10 Mexico, 10
be employed a prlvateers. The Shamrock
which has been for some years a revenue
cruiser on the Irish station, and had been
known at kingstown as one Of the fastest
boats in the squadron, was sold by the
government some months since. She sub
sequenlv proceeded to Liverpool, whence,
two or three weeks since, she sailed for
Meylco, the owners intending to take cut
letters Of marque for the priyItecr service.
The present excited state Of affairs, saws
the Europeun Times, IN the United States,
arising out of the Mexican dispute, aud the
feeling which has been evoked there 10
prevent speedy and satisfactory adjust
ment Of the Oregon question-these com.
biued causes are said to have determined
the government to increase materially our
force in Canada and the North American
colonies. Such is the current rumor Of
the day.
From Winners and Smiths European Times.
