LATE FROM EUROPE.

The American sailed from Liverpool or
the 22d ult., at noon, and reached the Mar
rows, below New York, at l O'Clock, P. M.
on Friday, having made the voyage in Is
days and l hour. She had head-winds
and was 10 days and 90 hours in reaching
Halifax, She brought passengers to New
York, and landed two at Halifax.
The most importantnews by this arrival
relates to Ireland, summary Of which we
give below.
The reports which have reached us from
all parts of Grea. Britain respecting the state
of the crops, &c, is very encouraging, and
afford convincing proof that we shall, should
the weather continue as favorable as here
tofore, have most abundant and timely
harvest.
France continues tranquil; and the people
Of Paris have called for their wonted amuse-
ments. Assassina,ions have been reported,
but beyondtwo or three instances they have
not been confirmed. General Cavaignac re-
tains the good opinion of the people, and
not undeservedly.
Lamarline has taken occasion 10 vindicate
his policy while Minister of Foreign Affairs.
His published speech is full of eloquence.
point, and sound principles. He claims the
merit of having preserved Europe from war,
and challenges appreciation for successful
efforts in attaching the friendship of Eng
land. In her hands he recognizes the des-
tiny of civilization and he sees, beyond
the operations of whig and tory, the power,
above all, of public opinion.
Paris remains tranquil and there were
some hopes Of the state of siege being dis
continued after to-day. General Cavaignac
IS, it seems, determined to act with humility,
but is, at the same time, resolved not TO give
the disafected another chance.
His conduct in respect to the vanquished
IN the revolt, is admitted to have extorled
universal appreciation, but he is said to feel
that military government, even on the .prin-
cipal upon which he acts, is not all that is
required of chief of a state.
The situation Of the finances, and the re-
'medies for the suspension of trade and man
'ufactures imperalively called for, are said
and no doubt truly, to suggest to him diff
culties infinitely hey ond those ofsuppressing
an instruction and procuring the restora-
ton of order. The Journals des Debals
cautions the government tina, if it perseveres
in the course that had been pursued during
the last five months, the country must
within very short period arrive at bank
rupicy, or ian issue Of assignals, which
would be synonymous"
Thefunds reman stationary. On Tuesday
and Wednesday there was fall, which ex-
tended to all descriptions of shares. This
is accounted for not by political references,
but by the extensive sales of newly con-
'verted stock.
There are symptoms Of an improved feel
ing in the state of trade throughout the cot
Won and woollen districts of Lancashire and
Yorkshire. Manufacturers are said TO have
large number Of orders for foreign houses
on hand.
THREATENED REBELLION IN lRELAND.-
The purchase and manufacture of arms is
proceeding rapidly in Ireland.
Last week eight stand of arms were pur-
chased by the DIR. Doyle Club, of which
Mr.. Duffy, of the "Nation" is the president.
10000 stand Of disused military flint mus
kets have been purchased in London for the
use of the insurgents and all coming over
IN patches.
Hyland, the noted pike maker, has left
Dublin for Carlow, with large consign-
'ment ofpkes.
The rebels have prepared map of the
city Of Dublin, subdivded into districts, in
each of which the points at which the
clubs are respectfully to muster, and where
barbados are 10 be thrown up, are indi-
Gated.
1t is now arranged that if, upon the for
NATION of the jury to try Duffy or his fel-
lows, it shall appear probable that con-
vic,ion will be had, the clubs are to rise
Immediately and prevent the trial by an
anticipatory, and, as they hope, successful
outbreak.
One Of the Cork papers of the 18th gives
the following respecting a threatened mas
sacre -
"a circular was read on Wednesday even
ing, July IL, at some of the clubs in this
city. 1t was directed TO the President of
each club, gave sundry instructions respect
ing The organization. and exhorted all to be
ready against, we understand. the 9Th of Au-
gust. At present there are said to be 162,-
900 of them armed, ammunitoned and drill
ed, and waiting but the word to rise. When
the signal for slaughter is raised, each club
is to fall to, in its own neighborhood, in or
der to battle the military and police, who
will necessarily be SO concentrated as to
be unable TO meet the rebellion at every
point; and when any club has conqured
resistance in its distric,-that is, assassina-
ted all the loyalists who will dwell there.
then it is to assist any neighboring club in
want of aid"
