The News,

The arrival of the steamship Europa, from Liver
peol at this port yesterday morning put in pos
session Of three days later news from England and

the European cabinets were all turned eastward.
The prevailing impression was, that the threatened
rupture between the Gear and the Sultan would be
arrested. The departure of the French fleet for
Constantinople was credited very generally. English

The details of the California news, which we pub

found to contain but very few facts of any impor-

board of which, for some time past, has been the
cause of go much alarm. The items Of intelligence
are numerous and varied that we shall content
ourselves by simply calling the readers attention to
them.
The debate between Messrs Chase and Weller, in
the United States Senate, yesterday on the resol-
ton to pay the Inteigencer for publishing the de-
bates and proceedings of the late session, was
decidedly spicy affair. The latter gentleman favored
the proposition for the that it would be the
means of laying before the wings some sound demo
cratic principles but Mr.. Chase although philan-
thropst, had such phlanthropic feelings for the
unenghtened wings. This led to personal dispute,
in which the politics of the State of Ohio, the past
conduct Of the gentlemen themselves, and various
other matters, were reviewed. If party newspapers
were to be rewarded for their services at the
expense Of the nation, Mr. Chase thought that
the abolition paper called the National Era
ought not to be excluded from fair share
Of the perquisites. When the question was
taken, quorum voted, and the proposition to fee
the Intelhgencer was consequently lost. Several
nominations, mostly Of an unimportant character,
were confirmed, and communication having been
received from the President stating that he had no
further business to propose, the body resolved to
finally adjourn tomorrow at one o'clock.
Our special Washington correspondent writes
that Judge Bronson has not yet been heard from
concerning the Collectorship Of this port. In case
he does not accept the President is said to have de-
elared his intention of putting end to all further
difficulty, by placing soft shell in the office. The
evidence taken in the Gardner case yesterday was
deemed rather favorable for the Doctor It is con-
sidered doubtful as to whether Mr.. Shdell will be
able to the seat vacated by Mr. Soule in the
Senate. The chances of ex-senator Downs, recently
appointed Collector of New Orleans are thought to
be the best.
The proceedings in both branches of the State
Legislature, yesterday were Of very important
character particularly far this city is oncern
ed. We learn from our special correspondent that
the Senate, at a late hour last night, amended the
Assembly bill relative to our city charter, by strik-
ing out the sections with regard TO four municipal
Judges, and making the Mayor one of the Almshouse
Governors. The time for voting upon the charter
was altered from August to June. The latter mea-
sure will enable all citizens TO vote upon the
charter whereas, if the election were deferred till
August, many of them would be absent in the coun-
try and at the watering places. The bill relative to
the Jones Wood Park laid aside, and it is sup
posed will there remain for the balance of the ses
sion. The new police bill was passed after having
undergone two or three slight alterations
The committee of the Assembly have not as yet
been able to come to any agreement upon the
Senates plan for amending the State constitution
If they are not careful this measure which has occu-
pied so much Of the time Of the session. will go by
the board for there are only three more Of the
hundred days left. The Assembly passed resolu-
ton to adjourn sine die at four O'Clock on Wednes-
day afternoon, which will no doubt be approved by
the Senate. A large number Of bills were passed by
both houses as will be seen reference to the regu
lar reports.
Our Albany correspondent states that rumor is
current that Gov Seymour will call an extra session
Of the Senate, in order that the executive business
may be disposed Of.
Circumstances have come to light in Philadelphia

convicted Of killing Mrs Shaw and her sister is also
guilty of the murder Of Mr. Rink. An umbrella,

cognized as one that was loaned to Spring on the
day the awful deed was committed
The mortality report Of the past week shows that
three hundred and ninety persons died in the city
