~ New York, Feb. Is.
The steamship Africa, which arrived be.
low this pNt Monday afternoon, has gone
ashore on Jersey Flats, one mile below the
Island, in an sl,cmpt to reach the city through
q dense fog, which has been prevailing for
two days.

LoSDoS-The cabinet council sat three

The Times has an article which saws the |
accounts from the French provinces ere bad |
Severn failures have occurred at Lille ard
Malbouse.
The Tins does not conceive the tenor NJ
the late Russian note, and Orloff's mission TO
Vienna, TO justify sanguine expectations.
which NAV change with any event an extra.
ordinary position is apt 10 excite.
The probability is, that failing TO obtain n
declaration Of neutrality, the Russian Minis.
ers at Paris and London Will withdraw from
heir respective missions, unless they are
gain to refer to st. Petersburg for further
orders. - F.i.. .
with respect TO Count Orloif' 3 mission,
md the possibility that il is pacific, the Times
emarks that at the present time the range of .
legotIations are very CONSTRUCTED, and il is ,
impossible for the four powers to entertain
resh proposals from st. Petersburg, which
you'd involve the necessity of further ref.
renee to Constantnople and further DELAY
you'd be fatal to the course we have adopt.
