The steamer Hibernia arrived at Boston on
Friday morning in is l2 days from Liverpool;
with dates to the 4th inst, and 81 passengers.
She encountered very severe weather and head
winds. She arrived off Halifax on Friday
morning previous and had to lay to IS hours,
and arrived up on Sunday morning. During
the detention the thermometer was 10 degrees
below zero. The vessel is covered with ice
Altogether it is one of the toughest passages
ever made.
As usual we are indebted to the admirable
express line of Messrs. Adams s. Co. for the
earliest news, through extras of the Phladel-
phia Chronicle and Ledger. We are also in
debted to the New York Herald, Sun, and
True Sun, and Boston Advertiser and Tran
script.
The intelligence is highly interesting but
far from being Of that exciting character gene
rally looked for--on the contrary it is entirely
pacific.
The most important piece of intelligence is
the re-establishment of the Peel Ministry, al
ter an entire failure of Lord John Russell to
form one. On the Goth he went 10 Windsor
and informed the Queen that he was unable to
overcome the difficulties in arranging Minis
try, and he resigned into her hands the trust
he had accepted. Sir Robert Peel was then
Immediately sent for, and at the request of the
Queen he withdrew the resignation which he
had previously rendered. His example was
followed by all the members Of the late Adj
ministration, with three or four exceptions
Lord Wharnclitfe (who in the mean time sud-
denly died) is succeeded in the Presidency Of
the Council by the Duke Of Buccleugh. Lord
Stanley is succeeded in the Office OF Principal
Secretary of State, in charge Of the War and
Colonial Department, by the Right Hon. VII
liam Ewart Gladstone.
On the 2Gth, a proclamation appeared i'll the
Gaz lite, dated at Windsor on the I'D, further
proroguing Parliament to the 32d Of January
to be then assembled "tor the despatch of d.
Vers urgent and important affairs"
The London Examiner observes that the
beauty of the present jumcture Is, that nobody
knows what Sir Robert Peel is going to do
and yet every body is satisfied that he is the
man to do noJody kaol0s lohat!
1t is said Peel will not propose total repea
of the corn-laws, but fixed duty Of twelve
or six shilIings per quarter, to be decreased by
a shilling or two per annum, until II expires
in the course of six or ten years, as the case
may be. Others say that permanent duty Of
three shillngs per quarter, with compensation
to the landowner, enters into the new policy.
The Presidents Message was received in
London on the 22d, and appeared in the Time,
on the esd. The existing domestic events haC
somewhat diminished the interest which would
otherwise have been exhibited in regard to the
message. The general feeling exhibited BY
the press is pacific, and especial satisfaction is
expressed at the free trade principles of the
message, the consequences of which are look
ed to as a counterpose to the claims made il
regard to Oregon
The French Chambers were opened on the
S0tb, but the Kings speech says nothing of the
Presidents message, OF of the U. States. The
Journal Debats notices it as being written in q
dictatorial strain, and not over courteous te
England or France.
The London money market, after gooc
deal of fuctuation, on the Sd closed firmly
The quotations for Consuls were 81 Ia to s-S
being heavy. Bank Stock is 203 to 204, anc
Exchequer Bills are 26s to 2ss premium.
The changes in the Corn Market had beer
very inconsiderable. The following are the
official averages for the last six weeks. The
effect Of the decrease in the return of the last
week, produced. by the anticipated repeal o
the existing corn laws, has raised the duty or
wheat one shilling.
