ARRIVAL OF THE CAMBRIA.
HALIFAX, January

HALIFAX, January l.
The Royal Mail Steamship Cambria, from
Liverpool, Saturday, the 9th December, arrived
at her wharf, in this city, at o'clock Jas;
evening.
Two great events had transpired in the course
of the few days preceding the departure Of the
Cambria, each capable OF seriously influencing
the character Of all commercial operations
First the resignation of the Secretary for Foreign
Affairs in England, and second, the election @.
Louis Napoleon, as President OF France for ten
years, by very large majority.
The resignation OF Lord Palmerston causels
temporary disarrangemeat of the various mar
kets, and decline OF prices in many occurred
but when it became known that Lord Granville
was to succeed Lord Palmerston, confidence BE-
came in some measure restored.
The sudden retirement of Lord Palmerst01
from the Office of Foreign Secretary, caused the
greatest amazemeut and most profound regret o.
the whole nation. His successor, ii IS othcla-!
announced, is Lord Granville.
The withdrawal of Lord Palmerston from the
Government IS imputed to the dissensions which
have been known to exist IN the Cabinet ioI
several months past, and was, probably, pre-
cipitated by the significant reception and en-
phatic avowal of opinion to the kossuth deput2-
ton, to whom his Lordship used language by 10
means complimentary to the absolutists Of Eu-
rope. The fearless position assumed 10y LIZ
Lordship proved distasteful to the majority Of
the Ministry, and hence the result. This has
been the aH-peryading topic of conversation 81
this festive season, and has created uniyerss
sensation.
The under-Sccretary, Lord Stanley, had sls'
rendered his resignation.
Among the rumored causes of Lord Palmer
ston's secession from the Cabinet, was that OF
difference of opinion upon the abstract questiol
of the French revolution, though the mystery :
not likely to be revealed before the meeting O.
Parliament.
1t would appear that the return of many Iris9
emf migrants to their own country, had attrac'e-
considerable attention in Ireland, as IN yel!
many instances, the expectations entertainS,-
had not been, by any means, realized. The NE
were congratulating themselves upon It. anu i
garded it as a ground of hope.
