Later from Europe.

BY the packet-ships Adirondack and Queen Of the
West, and by the p~ilot-boat, Romer, arriving at New
York on Friday and Saturday, papers from London
of the 10Th, and from Liverpool Of the llth ult.,
have been received.
The news is In some respects important.
The liberal commercial movement Of Sir Robert
Peel is steadily advancing.
The cotton market remained firm. Flour was
advancing. Acontinuance and increase of the potato
disease is looked for in the next crop, being indicated
by the appearance of the seed. Indian corn, rice,
and ~buckwheat. are TO be admitted free of duty, from
the day when the committee of the whole house in
the Commons shall report to the whole house the min
~lsterial tariff bill; security being taken for the pay
ment of duties, in case the measure should not be
finally sustained by Parliament. The general opinion
of the press seems TO be that the House of Lords will
agree to the tariff proposed by the government.
Parliament had made no direct allusion to the
Oregon question, since the second night of the session.
The Queen had not come down to the House with a
message on American affairs, as had been anticipated
by the /" London Times" Of the eth March. The
intelligence of the notice" vote in the House of
Representatives had been received for some days.
The funds had faltered a little, and the anxiety in
commercial circles seemed to have somewhat increas-
ed. The continued silence of Parliament upon the
subject had begun to attract the attention Of the press.
We give below the views of some of the leading
Journals. Their tone, 1t Will be seen, is somewhat
more violent, and they seem TO speak as If any farther
concessions on the part of England were not TO be
expected. But nothing had taken place in Parliament
to remove the pacific impression made by the language
of Sir Robert Peel at the beginning Of the session.
We do not regard even the tone Of the British press
as ominous of hostile feelings. 1t busters, indeed,
in consequence of the undecided course of the
Senate. 1t is remarkable, however, that the English
press is now almost as intolerant of the 'forfv-nines''
in America, as Of the "6fyJourS." Extensive
naval preparations were still in rapid progress. The
" London Times" whilst it does gross injustice to
our views, suggests a piece Of advice for its own
government, which we had better apply to our own
situation - noRine nutato. "a bold and manly
course on the part of the (AmericaR government)
viii probably not be withouta good effect in the United
States-and it (should) undoubtedly command the
unanimous support of the people of Ohe United
States.") We viii not exclude the Wing party from
the general description.
The news from the continent is interesting. An
extensive and well-organized insurrection had broken
out in Poland. The insurgents had mustered 10000
strong. The city Of Cracow seemed to be the centre
Of the movement. There was a rumor that an Aus
trian force moving on to suppress 1t had been scattered.
Mons. Guizot having been Intercepted as to the
extent of the insurrection, had stated in answer,
"AH Germany is on fire" The insurgents in march,
ing from Cracow had crossed the Fistula, and the
revolt vas general throughout Gallisia. 1t was not
supposed, however, that the revolution could maintain
itself long against the allied forces Of Russia and
Austria.
O'Connell had written a letter strongly denouncing
the proposed coercion bill for Ireland as wholly un-
constitutional and oppressive, and invoked against it
continued and renewed activity in the repeal move
ment.
New and extensive preparations were making TO
expedite the Indian mail transportation over land.
The leave of absence heretofore granted to the officers
attached to the Indian regiments had been cancelled,
and they had been ordered to Join their respective
head quarters without delay Washington Union.
