ARRIVAL or THE NIAGARA.
sEYEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE
The steamer Niagara, Captain Ryrie, ar
rived at Halifax, at 3 o'clock on Thursday
morning and will be due in New York this
evening, June 9.
She brings $4,000 in specie and 63 pas
sengers.
The Cambria was spoken of Cape Clear
on the Goth, and the Hibernia in lat 46. SO,
lon &c.
The Europa arrived at Liverpool on
Monday, making the run in nine days from
New York.
The Hermann arrived at Southampton on
the 18th from Bremen with 1870 first and
second class passengers from New York.
She was advertised to leave on Sunday
morning.
The election in France, on the 18th,
passed off without single violation of good
order No definite opinion can yet be
formed as to the relative success Of parties.
No doubt is entertained but there is large
majority in favor Of peace and order
The French expedition TO reinstate the
Pope had not effected an entrance into
Rome at the last advices
The Neapolitan army has not been more
successful, having been defeated in an at
tack on the 9th inst
The war in Hungary assumes no new as
pect-the fighting goes on unremittingly,
and the fortunes Of the Hungarans are re-
ported to be in the ascendant, They are
said to be within a few days march of Wen
ma to which pontthe Russians are pressing for
ward as rapidly as possible, II is thought
that the strong protest of France, seconded
probably by England, may have the effect
to check the advance Of the Russians
Sicily is again in a state Of insurrecton.
1t is stated that the Danish question is all
but settled, the only positive facts are that
the Danes have suffered another defeat, and
that Lord Palmerston has intimated that the
attention Of the British Government is still
directed to that quarter with view to effect
restoration OF peace. The Daily Ne,os
asserts that Denmark has accepted the propo-
sitons made by Lord Palmerston, but
what those propositions are, does not appear
The plot gradually reveals itself in Ger
many The Sovereigns have evidently
combined for the overthrow of the Lber-
alists. There has been formidable dis
turbance at Dusseldorf, on the Rhine, but it
has been suppressed. AT Frankfort, the
riot was becoming more revolutionary and
anarchical every day. All the moderate
men have, in consequence, left it.
Ireland continues quiet, and miserable as
ever.
No further action has been had in the
English House of Lords, in relation to the
repeal Of the Navigation Laws. The Lords
were to 60 into committee on the bill on
Monday. Notice has been given by Lord
Stanley and others Of amendments to be Of
iered, and it is considered quite possible that
Ministers may be beaten in committee, and
the bill be so mangled as to induce its au-
thors to resign and retire from office.
Details Of the outbreak in Canada were
laid before Parliament on the 18th, which
elected some discussion Of no. Importance
beyond the fact that the Government evinced
determination to sustain Lord Elgin
Earl Grey, in abiding to Lord Elgin's dis
patch said it would show that he had acted
throughout with his accustomed Judgment,
moderation and good sense, and that he was
fully prepared to Justify and take the respon-
sibility Of any step Of Lord Elgin. No for
NAL discussion Of Canadian affairs until after
the receipt Of later intelligence, which
reached Liverpool probably on the Goth in
the Cambria.
The Austriaus entered the Papal States
on the North, and Marshall Winpan threat
ems with fire and sword, all those who re-
sist him. In the South, the .Neapolitahs
were advancing for the same object, but the
Romans met their vanguard at Albano, and
defeated them. The Neapolitans, consist
ing Of body Of 10000 troops, after short
conflict, threw away their arms and fled.
The Romans had taken fifty prisoners and
two pieces Of artillery, with which they en-
tered Rome on the evening of the 9Th
instant.
A private despatch from Rome, 18th in
stanti announces the landing Of the Spaniards
at Fin Micino. On the previous day Ro-
man division, commanded by Rocelli and
Mezzacapo is said to have entered the
Abruzzi; and Garribaldi is believed to be
armed at another point Of the frontiers, ready
TO support that movement. The Neapoli-
tans are certifying Valletti
Plus 9th, on hearing the resistance of the
Romans, is said to have declared he would
not return to Rome at such'a price, and to
have sent message in consequence to the |
King Of Naples and to General Ondinot, to |
induce them to retire. In the meantime, |
OndlnJt has been reinforced by many thou |
sand troops, and he has probably now well
appointed army Of 200, 900 under his COM
mand but the enthusiasm of the Romans is
raised to the highest pitch, and if single
handed or combined attempt, to lombard
and take Rome by storm, could be made,
the defence Of the city, by means Of barri-
eades and by the courage Of the people, will
be so well maintained, that the Austrians are
by no means certain Of success.
All accounts concur that il will be impos-
