AN ENGLISH SQUADRON FOR CUBA.-The Hants Telegraph, an English paper, of the 18th ult, has the following announcement:
 "The Powerful, 84, Captain Massey, is order- ed to Jamaica; and the Cornwallis, 60, Captain Wellesley; Pembroke, 60, Captain Seymour, (screwss,) and Rosamond, 60, paddle, Command CT CroIton, are to go to Bermuda. It is rumor- ed that this movement is in consequence of the American government having replied to some communication made to them by the British government on the subject of Cuba in tone insulting to this country in the highest possible degree"
 The same paper states that two other ships ot war have also been ordered to the North American coast. We also see it stated. on other authority, that the discussion about Cuba has recently revived in most bellgerent shape between Mir. Buchanan, our Minister at Lon don, and Lord Palmerston, the British Premier. Both statements, however, so far as they relate to trouble between the two countries in rela- tion to Cuba, are of doubtful character

The Late Elections. NEW HER SEY

The Newark Advertiser, Know Nothing paper, of the Eth of November thus speaks of
 "The democracy of this State are greatly re- joiced, as they have reason to be, in the extent and completeness of their success in yesterdays election, having even exceeded all reasonable expectations. They have made large gains over their previous majority in the legislature, which will secure for them one, if not two, United States Senator's to be elected within the next three years From the returns now be- lore us it appears that they have elected five of the new Senators, in which case the Senate will be becomposed oftwelve democrats, five whigs and three Know Nothings. The House, from pre- sent data, will be composed of thirty seven de- inocrats, sixteen whigs, six Know NOthings and one temperance man. This is certainly large gam over their last years majority, which amounted 10 two in the Senate and twelve in the House."
 HE UNITED STATES AND ENGLAND.-The washington correspondent of the New York Courier writes:-
 Important despatches from London have oeen received. Mir. Buchanan transmits the 1Aal answer of the British government on the central American negotiation. Our ultimatum 'S rejected and correspondence is closed. Both governments are released from the Clayton and iouiwer Treaty, Great Britain retaining her CO., .ohes S protectorate, and we withdrawing rom our ti-annexation clause. Assurances. however, of peaceful views are exchanged.- MT. Buchanan is still acting, but expects to ieave for the United States about the 10th of , this month."

No FAMILY SHOULD BE WITHOUT
 THEM.

.-zs- We speak of MLanc's Liver Pills, which have become an indispensable Family Medicine. The frightu symptoms which arise from diseased Liver manifest themselves, more or less in every family; dyspepsia, sick hcalachc obstruction of the mcnses, ague and fever, pains u the side with dry hacking cough are all the results of heptic derangcment-and for these Dr. M'Lane's Pills are sovereign remedy. They have never been known to fail and they should be kept at all times by families.
 DREcTIoNs-Take two or three going to bed. every second or third night. If they do not purge two or three times by next morning, take one or two more $light breakfast should invariably follow their use The Liver Pills may also be used where purginc is simply necessary As anti bilious purgative they are inferior to none. And in doses of two or three they give astonishing relief to sick headache also in slight Arrangements of the stomach.
 s4g- Purchasers will be careful to ask for pr. n.. s.ahe'> Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none else There are other Pills, purportng to be Liver Pil.s, also his Celebrated Nermituge can now be had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United States and Canada.
