turns from New Hampshire are at last so
nearly complete as to supply competent data
for measuring the result The total vote Of
the outstanding towns does not reach 300, a

upon the aggregate figures. Mr. Wells, the
Administration candidate for the Governor
ship, has received 81 Oh votes against 3d.
46s votes given for the Opposition: of which
latter, Mr.. Mctcaitc, the present Governor.
obtained 32,O93. But, as no choice has been

PERlLorS VOYAGE OF TIE ARABIA. En-
counter 'rith Ice Ficids.-A correspondent OF
the n. Y. Times gives an interesting account
of the late trip of the Arabia from Boston to
Liverpool. 1t appears she encountered on
the banks succession of immense icc-fclds;
and the writer after describing the manner
in which she slowly cleared ono after another,
says:
walked to the stern and leaned over the
counter to sec if the paddles we're at all injur.
cd. While was in this position heard an
exclamation, and. raising my head, b,hcld
the most frightful object that in more than
fifty thousand miles a-saiing ever cl,coun.

ENGLAND AND TIE UNITED STATE.--Tt is
stated that Mr.. Buchanan's letters by the
Arabia announce that the feelings in political
circles in England is much modified towards
the United States on the present differences.
The reaction is even stronger than is indica-
ted by the press. and is favorable to a rca.
Sonahle adjustment. No difficulty is now an
ticipated OH that score, although there had
been no very recent conferences, owing to
Lord Clartndon's absence at Paris. Lord
Palmcrston S government is regarded as tot
tcrng: it having been twice b,atcn in Paria.
