European Intelligence.

The passage of the Atlantic-whose arrival
at New York was announced yesterday-was
one Of the quickest on record, having been ac-
complished in little more than ten days.
The intelligence by this arrival is to the
18th instant, and relates almost exclusively to
the movements of KossUTH in the English
provinces and to the proceedings of LOUIS Ma
PoLEoN.
KossUTH had visited Birmingham and Man
chester, and his reception at both places, and
throughout the intermediate route, was highly
enthusiastic. At Birmingham he was wei
coined by procession of from one hundred and
twenty thousand to one hundred and fifty thou
sand persons, headed by the members of Par
lament for the town, and other leaders Of the
advanced liberal party. The corporate authori-
ties stood aloof but this circumstance appears
to have increased the determination of the towns
people TO render the demonstration as triumph
ant as possible. A similar state of things
prevailed at Manchester, where numerous dele
cations from the densely populated mapufac-
turing districts had assembled to present ad-
dresses to the great Hungarian. He was the
guest of Mr.. HENRY, M. p. and amongst those
most prominent in the proceedings connected
with his visit were Mr. BRIGHT, M. P, and
Mr. GEO. WLsoN-the great moving spirits,
next to Mr. Golden, in carrying out the OBJ
jects of the defunct anti-Corn Law League
The thorough amalgamation of the free trade
radicals with the mass of operatives of the
great seats of English manufacturing industry
may be regarded as not the least significant
result of KossUTH's tour; for they have hther
to been in a great measure estranged.
In consequence Of other invitations and ar
engagements, it is stated that KossUrH would
not leave England until the Goth instant, when
he would sail in the Humboldt. A letter to
this effect has been received by the Mayor of
New York.
The Galway papers are again flushed with
hope of coming greatness, arising out of
anticipated steam communication with New
York An American gentleman named WAC
STAFF has visited Galway, and formally an
nounced an experiment Of this kind. He is re-
ported to have stated that the first of line of
steamers between the two ports will leave
this side of the Atlantic on the 18th proximo
For the sake Of Ireland, we trust that the pro-
mise will on this occasion be fulfilled.
proposal to continue the search for Sir
JOHN FRANKLIN has been made by Lieutenant
PIN, of the Royal Navy, who has received the
support of the Admiralty, of the Geographical
Society, and of Lady FRANKLIN, who has de-
voted to the project no inconsiderable portion
of her scanty means. Lieutenant PMS inten-
ton is to go through Russia and Siberia to the
locality of the alleged Polar Sea.
Great excitement continued to prevail at
Paris Nor is it likely to subside at present,
as LOUIS NAPOLEON had made a speech to six
hundred officers of the army, affirming his re-
lance upon their support in any emergency
that may grow out Of the existing state Of
affairs. HIS remarks have been construed into
declaration OF his determination to act regard
less of the Assembly and have produced a
corresponding effect upon the funds. We re-
fer TO our Paris correspondence for many inter
esting particulars.
After the above was in type, we received in
formation Of the arrival of the Asia, with three
days later news, the substance of which will be
found in the telegraphic column 1t will be
seen that the French ministry have been de-
feated in the Assembly by vote of q on the
proposed modification of the electoral law.
