The steamer Pacific, with advices from Liv-
erpool to Wednesday, the 9Th ult.. has arr,
we'd at this port. She did not sail for four
days after her appointed day, hence the ap
parent delay in her arrival. The steamer
Union had arrived at Cowes, but the steamers
Africa and Sarah Sands, had not arrived when
the Poetic sailed, nor did she see either of
them during the passage.

/ GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.
Another change has taken place in the
British Cabinet Gladstone, Herbert and Ora
ham had resigned, because Roebuck's motion,
to appoint a committee to inquire into the
management Of the war, was carried. SubSe-
quently the Cabinet was again remodled, but
The same men are in, except that Lord John
Russell is in again as Colonial Secretary. j.,
The celebrated Joseph Hume is dead.
The Vienna Peace Conference was to be
opened in a few days. All parties expressed
a strong desire for Deace.
1t has been officially announced from The
Crimea that, on the 9TH of Feb, the Russians
unfer General Lapardi, fifty thousand strong,
with seventy guns, attacked the Turkish for
ces at Eupatora, under the command OF
Omar Pasha The battle lasted four hours,
a nd the Russians had 10 retire, finally, leaving
upon The field fully two thousand killed aud
wounded. .
Affairs before Sebastopol remained unchang-
ed.
1t was confidently reported that Lord Rag
Ian had resigned, and that Lord Lucan had
been recalled.
The weather in England continued very Sc
we're, and great riots had taken place in Lon
don and Liverpool in consequence of the dis
tresS which prevailed among the working
class. The weather had changed when the
Pacific sailed, and shipping we're arriving at
both places, which greatly improved business
and gave employment to the laborers.
The Steamer Pacific arrived out at Liver
pool on The 23d. She saw 0 steamer off Ske-
MES, on the evening of the 9th, supposed 10
be the Africa.
The general impression in England was thai
the Palmerston Cabinet had fal en- to pieces,
and could not be remodled permanently. II
is slated that the passage of Mr.. Roebuck's
measure was the only os;ensible cause of the
resignation Of Graham, Gladstone and Herbert
and that the real cause was private squabbles
in the Cabinet. 1t was also believed that
Roebnck's party would not rest satisfied until
it had impeoched Lord Raglan, and one or
two others, ex-Ministers. Lord Palmerston
had experienced great trouble in patching up
the Cabinet, and it was not fully completed
and Russell only takes the Colonial Secreta-
ryship to stop the gap but will complete his
10 tie Vienna Conference.
1t was rumored that Lord Raglan was offer
ed, and would, accepta seat in the Cabinet.
