k'orsign News.-SssSn Days Later.
The United States mail steamer Baltic and
British mail steamer Canada arrived at New
York yesterday morning from Liverpool, with
dates to the LIST instant The steamer Africa
ran ashore on Copeland Rocks and was Obliged
TO put back the Canada bringing her mails and
passengers The C. has only been absent TWEEN
ty-four days in going from Boston to Liverpool,
and thence back to New York. Immediately
on the arrival of the Canada the mails and pas
sengers Of the Asia, $50 in number, together
with her cargo, were transferred to her, and
she again sailed. The Africa sustained consid-
cradle damage, being at one time high and dry
upon the reef, seventeen feet from water. Had
she been running at full speed at the time she
struck, she would inevitably have been lost.
The Baltic left on the LIST, and made splendid
run. She distanced the Canada considerably,
that vessel having sailed on the 28th, with very
little freight, which was greatly in her favor.
Among the Baltic's passengers are Mr.. Tod, late
U. s. Minister Plenipotentiary to Brazil, u s.
Campbell, American Consul at Rotterdam, Mr..
Whitney, bearer of dispatches from London,
and ]. Swift, bearer of dispatches from Paris.

for the present.
AT council held by the Queen on the Oath,
Parliament was further prorogued until jan
uary 25th.
The most important news from the continent
is the formation of the new French ministry.
The London Times says upon good authority
that Lord Palmerston has intimated to Kossuth
his disposition to grant him non-offcial inter-
view, if he desires. As far as Lord Palmerston
is concerned, he would rather see Kossuth than
not.
Kossuth arrived at Southampton on the 23d,
and was met with warm reception. He was
received at the steamer by the Mayor, who had
provided carriage for him, drawn by four grey
horses, and accompanied by band Of music.
On reaching Guildhall, the Mayor welcomed
him in speech, after which an address was
read, to which Kossuth replied at considerable
length. His visit to London was strictly Of
private nature, and consequently no public de-
monstration was made. He left London on the
18th to attend banquet at Southampton.
The gentlemen comprising the new French
ministry were considered as good guarantee
for the maintenance Of order as the former cab
met All, however, have more or less Bona
partist tendencies. The Bourse was scarcely
affected by the change, and Paris was perfectly
quiet. The Prince dc Joinville and General
Changarnier are candidates for the Presidency.

1t is said that misunderstanding exists be-
tween the governments Of Austria and Deu-
mark. Vienna letters state that the Austrian
cabinet had recently addressed note to the
British and French governments in their reply
to their protest against Austria entering with
all her States into the German Confederation.
The letter asserts that Austria denies the right
Of England and France to interfere in this ques-
ton, and states that she will recognise no other
judge than the Diet, il she should call for a
decision of the subject.
