Arrival of the Europa at Halifax.


Our olumns supply telegraphc intelligence from
Halifax, by which we learn of the steamer Euro
pas arrival at that port, last evening. There are
several points in the synopsis of news received,
which sre important Cotton has declined. Bust
ness at Manchester is much depressed, on account
Of the state of the cotton market. The other mar.
kets are variously quoted but the corn nasket has
exhibited decline in prices.
The political news is not without interest. There
has been a long debate in the British Parliament
on the Catholic question, and permission has been
granted to the Ministry TO introduce the bill Of
"pains and penalties" The ma orty making this
decision is very large. On the free trade question
there has been very significant vote. The Mi
nistry only supported their policy by majority OF
fourteen. We fear that Great Britain is getting
tired of A dam Smith theory
In the affairs of France we notice no particular
change. The project for q new dota,ion for the
President has been lost by majority OF one hun
dred and two agains, it. Thus, all that remains is
TO carry the threat made in the outset, into exc
cltion. This will be done, it is said, by ma
tiona subscription.
Austria and Prussia, with the concurrence Of
Russia, propose to play powers and privileges by
turns in the affairs Of Central Germany. We do
not learn the conditions OF this arrangement from
our despatch, but presume that we shall be fully
enlightened on the arrival OF the mails, which will
bring las, also, reports Of the Catholic debate in the
British Parliament.

Vanous attempts were made to nominate the
above candidates In each House, but without sue
cess, and the election passed over until next year
when, on the sth January, 1870, Rufus King was
elected by the votes OF 81 Senator'S and liz in the
Assembly. In the latter branch three votes were
gwen for Walter Bovine. Mr.. Van Buren, and
Col. Young voted for Mr.. King this time, although
they had voted against him the year before.
Mr.. Sanford's term expiring in 1871, the friends
OF Mr.. Van Buren, started the idea that tne Sena-
tors should net both be located in the Southern
Ilsiric. OF the State, as Messrs King and San.
ford were. In the democratic caucus, this gave
Mr.. Van Buren, the advantage, and he received
flfiy.eebt votes TO twenty -four for Sanford. The

was made tot elect Senator in place Of Mr. King

majority. Judge Ambrose Spencer was nomin ited I;

scattering. The Senate refused to nominate.
Spencer received 10 votes, and there Il scat
tered on sixteen candidates. The Senate after.
wards nominated Albert II. Tracy. and finally
James Tallmadge but the Assembly refused to

FEES OF UNITED STATES MARsHALs, DISTRICT
ATTORNEYS AND CLERKs.-By the fourth section Of
the act Of May, 11y2, il is provided that
The legal feee Of the clerk attorney and marshal In
criminal prosecutions shall be included in the account
certified BY the court or one OF the Judges q H. in which
the services sha have been rendered shall be passed Ia
the usual manner and the amount thereof paid out Of
the Treasury to the marshal and by him shA be paid
over TO the persons entitled 20 the same.
Under this act, ii has been the uniform practice
from its date down to the present time, to furnish
the marshal with the means Of carrying out Its pro-
visions. The language Of the act seems to be per.
fecty plain, and, should say, capable Of but one
Interpretation; but it appears that Mr.. Elisha
Whittlesey, aidedby philosopher Greeley and John
&. Spencer, has given a construction to it which Is
quite novel, and would, Ia effect, compel some of
the United States officers to serve without. COM
pensation. Mr.. Elisha Whittlesey, First Comp
oler Of the Treasury, has Issued circular to the
United States officers, stating that the act OF Con
gress, and the state statutes, in the nature Of
q revised act, whi,h repeals all other acts on the
same subject, 80 far as regards the state Of New
York, and excludes any allowance to any Of those
ticers under the fee bill Of February %, 1879, un
der the provisos in the act Of March 3, IsiI, and
under any and all other previous acts Of Congress
General Of the United States-Batler, Gilpin, and
Crit.enden-and each Of them has given the opinion
that the taxation Of the Judge is conclusive as To
the amount to be paid to those officers, and that
unanimous opinion has been confirmed several times
by Judges Of the supreme Court of the United
states, and more recently, a. will be seen by the
decision in the at Detroit, delivered by Judge
Mclean, and which appears in another part Of our
psrer. The hrst Comptroller, however, holds him.
self as above the decisions Of the courts, and, ap-
pealing to the higher law Of bis own opinion disre
CARDS the ruling Of the Judges, ard refuses TO pass
the accounts Of the marshal. On this subject, Mr..
Justice Story says
I have always considered the true construction Of
the act Of Congress of the sth Of MAY l5p2 ch 3
to be- that the certificate Of the Judge upon the
animation Of the msrshals sccounus was conclusive,
that the items q the charges examined
In any vhssot by the officers Of the Treasury
Dspsrtnent.
rbave never at any time, heard doubt expressed
by Judge, that this the and only legitimate
construction Of the statute and have objection
its teing communicstsdt 70 the Treasury Department
In this opinion. Chief Justice Tsney agreed; but
new light breaks in apon the Law, and Mr. Elisha
Whittlesey puts construction upon the scs, at va
rance with the highest OF American authorities
