The Foreign News.

We have received sixteen days later intelligence
from England, by the steam ship Britannia,
which arrived at Boston early yesterday morning.
In looking carefully over our exchange papers,
we find no news OF importance concerning this
country. The latest accounts from the United
States were 10 the 4th ult. from Washington, and
to the It'll from Boston, and before the Oregon
debate was determined
Our readers will find a synopsis of the news in
this days paper
II seems that ebulGtions OF vulgarity and bad
feeling in legislative bodies, are not confined to
the model rcpublic for our readers will perceive
that the lnurels acquired by legislators in this
respect, have been torn from them, and now
grace the brow of the British Premier, and Mr..
Dlsraeh. These gentlemen had blow up, re-
sembng, in great degree, the scenes that occa-
sionally happen in our Congress, in the course of
which the lie was gwen in the most abrupt man.
possible.
AT the last accounts, Mr.. Smith O'Brien was
monopolizing public attention Our readers are
ware that he is the violent repeal member OF
Parliament-the successor OF O'Connen when
that gentleman shall be gathered to his fathers,
and the unsophsticated representative of the re-
evolutionary, or young Ireland portion of the re-
peal party. He had signified his intention of not
serving on any committee whose business did
not relate to Ircand and on his being appointed
on committee of another kind, he refused to
serve The House accordingly directed their
officer to take him into custody; and he remained
20 at the last accounts.
The Irish coercion bill passed the first reading
by majority of l49.

man, are making rapid fortunes in England The
press, without exception, speak of them in the

IN relation to the of the Christian Adrocafe

excited discussion during some few days Of the

to its course, having been made by DR.. Bangs.
The Journal, it will be recollected. is conducted
by DR.. Bond, who had been charged by DR.. Bangs
with having used its columns to personally assail
himself, and, also, the General Conference. Much
to the disappointment of many person. who had
assembled, the whole debate was cut of by the
passage Of resolution proposed by the Rev. Mr..
Lloyd, IN favor OF the "previous question:" and

Cherry in all the diseases for which it is recon-
mended, curing many cases after the skill o

a large and increasing demand for it. This fact

Rrronr OF rur sronrrAnY OF rnr NAVY

REPORT or THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY.
The following summary of this Report is also
copied from the Courier & Enquirer
The Mediterranean Squadron has not been
continued during the last year. II is proposed
TO revive IL as soon as circumstances will per-
nit. The station at Mahon has been discon-
tinued at the earnest request of the Portuguese
government, and measures are in progress for
the removal Of the public stores from that
place. The East India squadron, consisting
Of the Columbus, n, and the sloop Vincennes,
is supposed to have sailed for Japan and kams-
katka, in the month Of May or June last, and
10 have returned 20 Macao about this time -
They will probably commence their homeward
cruise via the North Pacific in January or
February. Orders were sent to Com. Biddle
in January last to proceed to the west coast of
Mexico, and assume the command of the
squadron there. No acknowledgment of the
receipt of them has been received at the De-
partment. The Brazil squadron consists of the
frigate Columbus, Commander Ritchie, and
the brig Banbridge, Lieutenant commanding
Pennington, under Commodore Rosseau The
African squadron consists of the frigate United
States, the sloop Marion, briggs Dolphin and
Boxer, and the store ship Southampton, 96
guns in all. A full and interesting narrative
is given of the operations Of the Pacific squad
ron since the war, both under Com. Soat and
Com. Stockton, and copies are annexed of the
official reports of these officers.
The squadron now consists of the Savannah
and the Congress frgates the sloops Ports
mouth, Levant, Warren, and Cyane (; schoon-
er Shark, and store ship Erie. The Race In
dependence is on her way out with Com. Shu-
brick, who will on his arrival assume command,
and the sloop Preble has sailed for the same
destination. The doings of the home squadron
are also fully narrated, and copies annexed OF
the official reports of Com. Conner in reference
to the blockade, the designs on Alvarado, the
affair at Tobasco, and the taking of Tampico.
Full Justice is done to the commanders of both
sauadrons, in whom the confidence of the de-
partment seems unabated. Extracts from the
instructions under which they acted, show also
a disposition on the part Of the Government TO
avoid all collision with Mexico, if possible
The vessels comprising the Navy of Texas
seem to have been found unworthy Of repair,
with the exception of the Austin, which is at
Pensacola. The others have been ordered to
be sold The estimates of the department are
based on the employment of 10000 men,
though no more than $500 are now in service
Authority is asked to build four sea steamers
to be employed in connection with our squad
rons abroad. The practicability of the dry
dock at New York is not doubted, and the work
is urged upon the favorable notice of Congress
A dock at Pensacola is also recommended, and
other improvements to increase the efficiency
of the yard at that place. The restriction on
the Memphis work adopted at the last Con.
gress, it is thought may be advantageously re-
moved.

From the New London News of Monday

LATER FROM THE WRECKED ATLANTIC
MORE BODIES roUND.-On Saturday evening
the 18th inst, the body of a man came on
shore, and was picked up, destitute of clothing
except boots. Inside of one of these were le-
gibly written, cdr Toorney" The makers $
name is perceptible, though nearly obliterated.
"No 55 or 50 North Market street, Boston"
is distinct, probably the No. ofthe store where
the boots were purchased. Another account
says this body was very much mangled and
bruised one ofthe legs being gone and scarce
ly an unbroken bone left.
On Sunday morning, Goth inst, the body of
John Walton, the husband and father to the
family buried here vas found. On his person
were 1886 in bank bills, $40 in gold, and a
watch.
Parts of two skulls were also found, but of
course, could not be identified.
The top of trunk was found with the let
ters "W. s." in brass nails on it,
The bottom of a trunk was found with ga.
G.. Colamore, Boston, S44," written on it.
A small wallet was also picked up, contain
ing sum OF money.
The smack Favorite brought the body of
John Walton to this city We did not learn
the disposal ofthe other
During the heavy $. w. blow Of Saturday,
we understand that the mass of wreck which
has been piled and wedgcd together on the
shore was, to use the language Of one who was
on the spot, completely 'shook up, and scat
tered in all directions; and il is conjectured
that these bodies were washed from under the
mass. Doubtless others will be found, which
have remained buried beneath the wreck since
that terrible disaster.
In the lists of the passengers which have
been published heretofore, no name was inclu.
ded that bore any resemblance to "Toorney.' -

Arrival of the Cambria.
FIFTEEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.

The British Royal Mail Steamer CAMBRIA,
arrived at Boston, on Wednesday night about
9l-2 o'clock.
She left Liverpool on the afternoon of the
4th, and has made the passage in little more
than l2 days-about the shortest passage ever
made, and certainly remarkable at this season
of the year.
The news is not very important, but is in
teresting. We make extracts from the Bos-
ton papers of Thursday.
Great misery prevailed in Flanders, oc-
casioned by the want of food and by the want
of employment.
The Cambria brought 7S passengers. On
the 9Th, in lat. 50 80, lon. Is so, passed a
large steamer, supposed to be the Great West
ern.
The Great Britain steamer had not been
got off, and accounts from her speak very de-
spondngly.
The Grain trade had rather improved and
more actively prevailed. A slight advance
had taken place in the value Of wheat, and
10000 bbls of bonded -four had been taken
for investment, at 29s to 3Os per barrel Indian
corn had declined Is to IS per quarter.
The Cotton market had for the last two
days been in very excited state ; and such
had been the perseverance with which it has
been maintained, upwards of25, 600 bales be-
ing taken by spectators in three days) that a
rise of three-eighths ofa penny had taken place
within that short period.
The American Provision Market was dull,
and prices on the decline.
The harvest in Egypt is more abundant
than in ordinary years, and very much ex-
ceeds the wants of the inhabitants.
All France is at this moment in state OF
great excitement with respect to the audacious
suppression, by Russia, Austria, and Prussia,
of the republic of Cracow-the last remaining
vestige of the once great Polish nation.
Affairs in Portugal are looking most serious.
1t is said that the Queen has sent to Spain for
assistance.
