The EurOpa's News.


The Europa arrived at New York on the llth
inst. She experienced stormy westerly gales dur
ing the passage, and brought her Liverpool pilot
with her, being unable to get rid of him account
of the gale.
The Europa brings 10 passengers.
We give below the most important news by this
arrival:
England.
HotyheGd Hdrbor-Ihe Government have com.
peted the purchase Of the all ground aud property
requisite for the construction Of the new harbOr
here and the whole ofthe works will now BE- pushed
forward with the utmost peditiOn-nearIy fifteen
hundred men being constantly engaged in the va
Tous operations. The engineers are proceeding
rapidly with the extension of the sea walls al the
northern breakwaler, and also progressing with
the erection Of The stages. Many thousands OF
cubic feet ofstone are how ready for the commence
ment and erection Of the immense sea wall, and
fresh supplies are daily Obtained from the lofty
heights mat oyerhaDg the harbUr, where the
extensive quarryIng operations are being car-
red on. The material thus Obtained, when
thrown down into The breakwater, forms masses
from ten TO ffty feet in thickness. The estimated
cost of this new harb0r, which will consist of three
hundred and sixteen acres Of ssa-room, s E7OO 000
and of this sum the Chester aud HOlyhead Railway
Company is liable to the extent of 100000 bu,
the measure introduced into the House of Commons
will relieve them of this responsibility.
France.
The Moniteur publishes an official notice on the
subject of the new law respecting the press, in
which il is announced that the law is to be strictly
enforced, if every article containing political,
philosophical moral discussion be not signed By
its author = and intimates that any attempt to
evade the law will expose the journals to prosecu-
ton.
1t is curious that in this very article the Mont
teur itself violates the law, the article not being
signed.
The most important of the revelations yet made
in consequence Of this signing system is, that NJ
De Cormenin, the iar-famed pimon, is a contrbu.
tor TO Il provincial journal The Journal du I,orst
publishes an article signed by that gentleman, in
which he strongly urges all the friends Of order md
society 10 remain firm TO the existing constitution,
and 10 permit no alteration in it, inasmuch as it is
impossible TO substitute for it any arrangement
which would not have more enemies than the pre-
sent. The Journal dies Debats has at length pub
iished political article il is signed Louis Alloury,
and is on the subject Of tho Councils General Of
Departments. Ii is a very lengthy affair, extend
Ing over nearly four columns NJ. Louis Alioury,
however, Is NOT near so lOng-winded NJ. BOilay,
who signs himself Rcdacteur tn chef of the COnsti.
tutonnel, and who spreads a dull and wearisome
article over five mortal columns.
We have 10 record another name among those Of
the writers in the National, that Of NJ Alexandra
Rey, who, in an article on the Wesbaden circular
demands Of the Legitimists-" Do You approve of
all the principles laid down in that circular Aye
or no? -
Great diversity is visible in the ways adopted
by the papers of conforming to the obligation of
signature imposed by the new press law. The
