Affairs In Europe Details by the Arabia.
The steamer Arabia arrived at NewYork at
half-past : o'clock on the morning of the 23d
instant. She left Liverpool at l o'clock on Sat
urday afternoon, the 18th instant. Time across
the Atlantic, 0 days, is hours, 80 minutes.
We condense a summary of her adviees from
the Newly ork Herald of the 23d instant
Among the passengers by the Arabia is Nine
Florentine, the vocalist, siguor Bottesini, who
joins the Julien troupe, Mr.. Howard Paul, the
dramatist, AMI Mr.. George Jordon, of Burton's
Theatre.
The American steamship Monumental City
was wrecked on the 18th of May, on her passage
from Port Philip to Sydney, and 50 persisted
| The Sylvie yacht, from NewYork, which was
relitted at Havre, left on the Sth inst for Cowes
| She was much admired, and showed off her sail
ing qualities very we'll on leaving, making i
knots easily.
The Great Britain steamship sailed from Liy-
erpool at o'clock on Thursday, the 18th, with
80 passengers for Melbourne and Sydney The
Great Britain had very little specie on freight,
but considerable quantity of plate and jewel
rv Bets are pending as to whether or not she
will make the passage in sixty days, Offers
we're freely taken that the clipper ship Sove-
reign of the Seas will make the quickest pass
age. On the other hand, Gibbs, Bright s Co,
owners of the Great Britain, undertake to re
turn a proportion of the freight money il the
passage extends over sixty days.
TIE TURKISH QGtsrIoN. There is little or
nothing new to add to last adyices. 1t was said
that a Geographic dispatch had been received in
Paris from Vienna, announcing the acceptance
by the Divan Of the austrian proposals. There
can be no doubt that the proposals will be ac-
cepted by the Porte, hut the statement that
they have been already accepted is prema-
| lure Vienna letters Of the 9th state that the
Cars readiness to receive the Embassador Of
the Sultan is the real gist Of the message from
st. Petersburg that has made so much noise
since it was telegraphed. Direct negotiations
with the Porte, in his own capital of st. Peters
burg, are, above all things, desired by Nicholas
The intervention Of France and England would
thus be practically got rid Of, and the Porte
, exhausted by delays, and less in communication
with its allies, would the more readily submit to
! the Russian demands An explanation Of the
r rapidity with which the Cars reply was re-
| ceved, is current in Paris. NJ. dc Meyendorif
they say, the Russian Minister at Vienna, was
| invited 10 attend tne OpuleFSuCe VI llie hcPTt'
, sentatives of the Four Powers this he declined
to do, but they communicated to him their rese-
lutious before they had put them into formal
! shape He was thus enabled, as early as July
%, Tor perhaps u y to send their substance 70
St Petersburg and there is, therefore, reason
to suppose that the Cars acceptance, tee.
srarhed from st. Petersburg, August 5, was
based, not on the formal document Of the Fur
Powers but on Neyendorff7s report of what il

ious as the mercantile world are for news
nothing decisive was expected until the 18th o
10th It appears that the proposition Of tn
Four Powers was not dispatched from Vienna Il
Constantinople till the 9th, hence a reply coull

The London Morning Post pretending to hay
exclusive sources Of information, states that tn
| Russian troops will be Withdrawn from th
Principalities in the first week of Septembe,
f and that soon afterwards the fleets will retie
B from Besika Bay. Similar statements wee
+ quite current, and the mercantile public Of
Britain were more trunquillised on the sulAset
of the East than they have been from the beGn-
ming Of the dispute.
