Quarantne at half pcs. nine O'Clock last night, with
European advioee to 9Th instant -four days Inter.
BY this arrival we have the important Intelligence
snssrnced to beth houses Of the British Parliament
b. Minis ers, that the Vienna Conference rc-asssm-
bd ON the afternoon OF the ATT instant ane was al
most mme dtasely finally dissolved, leaving the war
destinies Of the contending Powers to b aroitrat
cd by theeword alone. At tsis meeting the Austrian
Minister offered a new proposition-fhe nature of
which ienot explained the Russian representative.
This document he wished to transmit 60 st. Peters
burg, but the Ambassadors Of France and England
not being o. commissioned TO accede &c such course,
The meeting was adjourned ssnerdie. The allied
successes in the Bea Of Azof are confirmed and ad
ditioral adv ansages gained by them reported. The
Russians had abandoned SoBjsk Kaleh, after burn
mi the principal buildings and leaving be hind thsm
sixty guns and SIX mortais which they had render
cd upsesiceabie. The allied squadron had appear
Cd at Genitchi, and having landed body Of sea-
men and marines, drove the Russians from
shat place, destroying all their food de-
pots and vessels of war. Thus the Russians
loet IN four days immense quantity of provisions
ssur war steamers and 2A0 vessels employed exclu-
sfyey in provisioning the troops in the Cdmea with
six millions Of ratons destined for the garrison in
Eebastopol. There lie nothing new from the Crimsa,
hnt al the allied generals had held council Of war,
At which it ia said an immense and most important
movement was decided on. The French miners were
making decided advances on the works.
Spain was more quiet, but the inBurrection had
been Of serious nature. The Dnke de Montpen.
aisr had taken political position which caused ua
eaa,ness.
The prospect OF another French loan had caused
some fuctuation in financial affairs, and consos
elssed on the 9th inst. at decline. Cotton had ad
sanced Id. on previous quotations, with sales OF
seventy thousand bales in the.Iverpool market for
The four days succeeding the departure Of the Al

The TRANSACTIONS which we give from the edito
sials Of the Mexican papers to-day are suggestive
II the highest degree. The Trait d. Union In one
Of those articles, discusses the subject of Know
Nothingism, and exhibits il under the light OF an
ignorant and suicidal movement, antagonistcsl to
tho institutions the character, and the past OF the
United States. The Universal devotes Q series Of
aticles to the discussion OF the Cuba question;
calls upon the Spanish American people TO inter
yene first in all diplomatic attempts either to change
ne present condition Of the island by transfer OF
IL sovereignty or to establish emancipation which
would be equally dangerous; and afterwards, il force
y reforted to the part Of the United States, to
rally under the standard of the race, which would
he sure to be unfurled by Mexico. Both these art-
clss are deserving Of attention.
