ErOm GuTUpe.
Steamship City of Washington, from Liver
pool arrived ut New York, Jan.-l9.
The political news by tins arrival is noagre,
but indicates a disturbed state OF feeling IN Ell-
rope.
Italy is in very unsettled state, particularly
Lombardy. News from all parts is pregnant
with alarm. The steps taken in Lombardy are
almost tantamonnt to state OF siege
The Bombay mail of Dec. had reached Eng
land. The news is unimportant. A large ar
my of rebels had been defeated by the Comman,

GREAT BRITAIN.
The London Times, in an editorial upon the
recent correspondence which has been published
in regard to the affairs of Central America, the
steamer Washington, etc, thinks that the
American Government and its officers are push
ing matters very far indeed and by no means re-
spending to the frank and friendly manner in
which the practice of visitation was entirely
surrendered by the British Government, and
says that-it :" really seems to come to this, that
no English naval officer can go on board al
American ship, however concilhatory his con-
duct, however unwilling or unable he may be
to apply compulsiou, withour giving to the
United States q casus bill against this country.
In the city article of the Times, attention is
directed to American policy in regerd to Next
co, as also the efforts of France and Spain to
obtain redress for injuries sustained, while the
British government is censured for its total
apathy in the matter

of voice and animated gesture than the Empe-
ror generally employs, and reminded some OF
the listeners of scene between the first Consul
and the English Ambassador of that day, pre-
vious to the rupture of the treaty of Armiens.
They are commented upon in various ways in
all circles where politics are the topic, and
learn that in the higher financial region where
they are known they have produced an effect
which it is difficult to exaggerate.
| For the last two or three months negotiations
have been made going on between Austria and
France on the subject Of Italy. The Emperor
expresses himself very anxious that reforms
should be introduced there, and particularly In
the Roman States.
On both sides of this point, the greatest oppo.
sition is met from Austria, though it is "a fact
beyond dispute that the Italians are more dis
contented than even with their rulers--mor'
infamed than ever with hatred against Austria
which no merits of her representatives or hel
Generals will ever mitigate, and as ready q
ever to rise against those they look upon a
their tyrants

states that the Spanish government has been in
formed officially that complete satisfaction will
