Bylale aaviccs lfom Fort Scott il ap
bears thas the visit Of Gov. Denver nnh
Charles Robinson 70 that locality has re-
suited il restoring peace, at least TOT
the present. Gov. Denver called meet
ing Of the citizens of Fort Scott which
was addressed 10y himself and Governor
Robinson. Gov. Denver said he had come
rs pcace-maker, and proposed that by
rones should be hyag0nes, and All past Of
lensos be lcft to the Grund Jury that all
roc,a citizens shoald refrain from violence,
and assist in the enforcement Of the laws f;
that obnoxious officers, ig reported to the
Governor, would De removed SO that others
might be elected by the people. The plan
met with general approval The Sheriff Of
thc County was reported rs obnoxious, and
was az once removed, when the people elect
ed H. r. Roberts, Free-State man, in bis
stead The Governor announced that the
United States troops would be removed
feo,n tho Fort, aud that he would conmis
sion company Of GO militia, under Major
Weaver, Free-state man to protect the
settlers in the vicinity from marauding Mis-
sourians.
If Gov. Denver IS correctly reported ia
regard to the Fort Scott difficulties, his
action would seem to confirm the recent an
nouncement that he intends to resign the
Executive Chair, as it exhibits a degree Of
fairness toward the settlers in Kansas that
win not be tolerated at Washington Trib.
The Africa brings an unusually impor-
tant budget Of news from the Old World.
The seizure by al English cruiser of the
French ship Regina Cell, with negroes on
board. aud the remarks made upon il in
Parliament by members Of the British Gov
ernmcnt, afford the occasion for very angry
discussion in the Partisan press, aud may
very easily be converted by Louis Napoleon
into the occasion for that foreign war bieh
be seems TO regard as necessary to his con
tiuuance in power. The English seem tc
have got over their late alarm, but the
matter now in hand is really much mors
likely to result in war than the recent diff
fcrcnees. The latter were IN fact but per
souaI affairs between Louis Napoleon and
England but the present questions are
easily capable of being wrought up iuto
material Importance which will enlist the
point of honor and the enthusiasm of the
whole French people. In England the new
India bill has made progress, and has safe
ly passed through an attempt of Lord Pal
merston 10 change its character by an
amendment. His LordshiP's proposition
was voted down by GO majority in the
House, where but short time ago he was
absolutely dictator. A new illustration,
this, Of the fragility of political greatness.
the great speech of the India debate thus
far has been made by Bright, who seems
TO be rising daily into new prominence
Hc advocated policy of conciliation and
tolerance for India Including its division
into SIX provinces With each its own govern
or and administration board, Of which ma
tiYes might be members high court Of
justice to settle questions between natives
and the Crown with amnesty for the past,
and full religious toleration for the future.
From India itself The news is very gloomy,
New mutiDies and new difficulties rise on
every hand, and it is impossible now to sup
pose that the struggle will he ended at any
proximate period From Spain We learn
