alarm in relation to her, safety has been
great.
y The European intelligence shows that
all goes favorably in the direction of peace
between Russia and the allies. A protocol
for the preliminary Congress at Paris has
been signed, and it isreported that the En-
perors of Russia and Austria will visit
Paris during the conference.
An armistice from land operations only
will probably be agreed upon till the Sist

l: has been reportedon Liverpool change
that Mr.. Buchanan has demanded hispass-
ports, and the absence of himself and lady
from soiree given by Lord Palmerston is
attributed to the personal misunderstood
ing between the Earl of Clarendon and
himself Wehave no particulars Of the re-
ported misunderstanding, as the English
papers maintain complete silence on the

have jointly sent an envoyto Brazil to en-
list that country against theinterests ofthe
United States in Central America.
Meantime the general tone Of the Eng.
lish press is threatening and presumptuous
towards the U. s. The purely commercial
pap RS form an exception, and the chambers
of commerce of Liverpool and Manchester
protest against any interruption of AMIGA

threatening aspect of affairs. From the

on our part with regard to the American
Minister, and Mr.. CHAMPION and Mr.. Buch
anan, the two inofensive gentlemen viii
probably cross each other onthe Atlantic.

administered to their national envy and
quarrelsomeness.
The Journal des Debats has long and
