The arrival Of the Baltic from Liverpool, brings
dates from Europe one week later than those last
received. Cotton has Unexpectedly advanced in
nave been firm in price In England while at Ham
burgh they have been very active at an advance.

The excitement we some days since anticipated,
Me Papal question is meeting with full examna-
sion by the parties concerned in IT, Lord Berkeley
has added to the excitement, by presenting petit
Son to Parliament respecticg the position Of his

being a nun, under the spiritual guardianship Of
the Catholic church, and liable to have her property,
ut her majority, pass into the revenues Of that
church. This point may lead to still further diff
6eultes. We shall publish the petition tomorrow.
The cabinet Of Lord John Russell still hang by
the skirts TO the IIouse Of Commons, and if they
not shaken to pieces by the vote on the ecclesi
aStical bill, IL will be wonder However, new
slection may do no good, as the political elements
seem not sufficiently ready for fusion towards the
promotion Of any uniform design, and the dissolu-
zion Of parliament may only be step from the
flying pan into the fire.
We have no news of any importance from Ger
many or Frs~cc. Affairs in Germany are still in

sor several months past. There seems now and
then a glimmer q light in the darkness and CON
fusion; but while diplomacy alone works it, way
there will be little progress towards permanent
