LIGHTNING DESPATCHE rs.
Telegraphed for the Burlington Hawk-Ey


BosroN, Nov. 20, 1 past T..
The Caledonia arrived at Boston at IL O'Clock
last night. The intelligence by her is comparative
ly of little interest. No event of especial impor
lance has occurred in any part of Europe.
The aspect of matters in Turkey has not materi
ally changed. In England nothing has transpiret
of special interest. @as#
ENGLAND.-The new Minister to the U. S., MI
Dulwer, sailed from Portsmouth in steamer sloop.
Of War. According to Hunts Telegraph, his first
business on his arrival will be to know what en-.
couragement if any, the U. 5. gives to the attempt
ed withdrawal Of Canada from British rule. 1t is
understood that he has full power to resist energet
icay all attempts at interference the part of
U. s. in the affairs of Nicaragua. 1t is said that the
government has intimated to the governor Of Cana
da that no c0crcive measures will be adopted to pre-
vent annexation to the U. States, IF the popular will
should be decidedly expressed in favor of that
sure. The British Parliament was prorogued until
the 18th January next. The Queen has issued heI
Proclamation for day of general thanksgiving on
the 10th inst, account Of the abatement of Chol
era in Great Britain. .# ., ,...
Ireland remains perfectly quiet. ~
From France nothing is announced Of interest.
In Austria three additional executions have TAX
en- place. Haynau has published an amnesty. The
Emperor has decreed that all officers who return to
be restored to their ranks.
The Jesuits are fast returning to Austria. In the
Roman States things remain as before. deputa-
ton has left for Portici to request the Pope to re-
turn. All the Universities in the Papal States are
to remain closed until further orders.
The Russia and Turkey effendi has been inform
ed by Count Nesselrode that the Cars demand that
the Hungary refugees should be located the inte-
rior of the country, or such parts of the British
territory may afford greatest facilities for keep
ing them under surveillance. If any of the refu-
gees which wish to go to France or England they
may be permitted so to do. The Gar will take no
notice of their departure, for whether in France or
England there be no doubt but that the refugees
will busy themselves in preparing for new reyolu-
tons.
GERMANY.-Relations between Prussia and
Neufchatel are in progress of adjustment. Neuf-
chatel returns to the same position which she &C.
cnpied before the Revolution. England has offered
her mediation in the matter. Mr. Carr has received
request from the American residents in Paris that
he would exert himself in favor of the Hungarian
refugees.
The Hungarian exiles were still at Wldden. Their
entire number is stated at about 100, principally Of
fcers. Benz, denies his final conversion to Islam
ism. BY electric telegraph from Paris of Friday
morning, intelligence was received that Mr. Rives
was received on Thursday by the President of the
Republic. The President was most gracious, but
he observed that in consequence of difficulties that
had arisen between the two governments, he would
have been deprived Of the honor of receiving him,
finstead being Republican Minister he had been
monarchical ambassador. The Presse contradicts
the statement that the French Government had dis
patched courier from Paris to st Petersburg to
explain to the Car that the sailing fthe French and
English fleets towards the Dardanelles was the re-
suit of misunderstanding. Private letters from
Conssantnople Of October 2sth, announce the arri-
val Of British feet at the mouth ofthe Dardanelles.
The instructions Of the English Envoy of oath Oc-
t"har ".nrsssed still greater determination Of the
English Government to grant material SUPPORT to
the Sultan in case of emergency, and to form de.
fensive alliance with the Pope in the event of Rus
STA attempting hostile measures.
The French Enjoys instructions were nearly to
the same effect, but although there was an evident
desire that Faance and England should act in con-
cert 1t was not certain that a defensive alliance
would be formed with the Sultan. In the event of
war 1t was understood, however, that France
would support Turkey, as long as she acted with
prudence. The Sultan and his Ministers were
greatly pleased with the approval of their condnct
by the London and Paris Press, and with the sup
port OF the two great powers. It would be impos-
sible for the emperor to commence hostitics be-
fore next May, and it hoped that the dispute in
the meantime would be adjusted. The Emperor of
Austria has ordered levy of $4,000 men in the
Lombardo VeDitian kingdom. The Cologne Ga
zette states that there are many symptoms which
tend to the supposition that war will be renewed
with Denmark. A report is already in circulation
that an army Of the Empire under Gen. Pinkard is
in readiness to march. No communication had been
received from the Emperor Of Russia, relative to
the letter Of the Porte.
