FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.--The latest news
from the seat of War we find in the Chicago Free
Press Of the 18th ult. That paper says:
Further intelligence by the Niagara strengthens
the probability OF general European Austria
will undoubtedly side with the Gar. Paris papers
report that the Car had ordered his troops in the
Principates To cross the Danube. The Vienna
protocol totally rejected ut ST. Petersburg, but
the Gar would examine the Turkish proposition of
the 10Th u., although he refuses to recognize the
European intervention in Russian and Turkish at
fairs. Agents Of Russia said to have been dis
patched To the United States to purchase ships and
ammunition. In England popular sentiment is great
" excited against Prince Albert the ground that
he is under Russian influence. The Paris correspon-
dent Of the London Times writes that there are
100 900 Frenchmen ready for the Turkish camp
{ when required. Sweden and Denmark have declar-
ed neutrality. There is obsculity in parts OF
the dispatch which render its meaning doubtful.
Heavy SHOWS in Great Britain and in other parts
Of the continent, have caused rise in brcadstuis.
Prices had gone up almost to the point reached in
1s47.
THE LATEST Ngws.-The Paris Monteur
tains a circular, dated Dec 30;h, signed by the Min
ster Of Foreign Affairs 10 all the French Legations,
on the Eastern question. The document is moderate
but very firm After narrating the phases Of
IL
ria and Prussia have recently, by agreement at Wen
ma, solenny recognized the territorial! integrity OF
the ottoman Empire OF the conditions oil their
political equilibrium. Further, that the affair of ST.
nope took place against all provisions, Russia having
declared that she only desired material guarantee;
therefore, to save the Ottoman flag from attacks
by the navid force Of Russia, the French arid Eng
lish fleets have received orders enter the Black
Sea- The circular terminates b, eXpressin, the hope
that Russia will not expose Europe to new convul-
sions.
A Waterman employed at Metropolitan Hall prior
to it's destruction has been arrested on suspicion Of
setting the building on FIRE.
A trial of various agricultural implements is to
take place a, Bloomington, H., the first Wedues-

The Commissioner OF Patents has refused to grant
an extension of Colts patent his revo!vers. He
thinks he has made money enough already.
/ The Washington InteIligencer says that there
fortyesht places of worship in tina, city. In view
Of this fact, it is somewhat surprising that there
should he much rascality ia the capital Of the
ton.
THE SAN FRANcIsco.--It is the opinion of in
fuentia journals that the destruction of the San
Francisco caused by being too heavily loaded.
The Tribune thinks this the cause, and We find
the opinion quite prevalent among other editors.
IowA.-Curtis Bates Of Polk county, has been
nominated by the Democratic State Convention as
candidate FOR governor; George W. McCIeary, for
lieutenant governor; J. l.. Sharp for auditor; Martin
l.. Morris for treasurer David McCloui for attorney

degrees below zero.
EEIE.--Thc Cleveland Herald says that rurnor
had reached that city that L. S. troops had been
dered to Erie to enforce the DEGREES Of the U. 5
! Courts In confirmation Of this report the Chicago
Free Press learns from gentleman who reached
that city from n. Y, Erie, that commissary Of
the army had reached Erie for the purpose OF prepa
ing quarters and providing subsistence for the troops
The presence Of troops will probably qle the rebel
lion and prevent any further dissracelu scenes by The
c citizens Of Erie.
