New YORK, Jan. 19.-The steamship City
of Washington, with Liverpool dates to the
9Th, arrived to-day. At the New Years
Leyee, at the palace of the Tuilleries, Napo-
leon remarked to the Austrian Minister II
regret that our relations with your Govern
ment are not so good as they were, but | re-
quest you to tell the Emperor that my per-
sonal feelings for him are not changed" The
emphatic tone in which the Emperor uttered
his words and made his gestures, attracted
the attention of the assembled diplomatic
corps.
The Spanish Minister has declared that
Spain will never sell Cuba, and protests
against the insulting hypothesis implied in
the Presidents Message. Olizaga introduced
a motion into the Cortez, supporting the min
~isterial declaration, which was unanimously
adopted. Spain has obtained from Mexico
full satisfaction in the Tampico affair.
There are rumors of the discovery of a
formidable conspiracy at Cracow, and that
numerous arrests have been made.
The Times leading article says that the
Continental excitement respecting the Italian
question has reached a crisis, and unless eff
f~cacious means are adopted for prevention,
a collision will occur between Sardinia and
Austria.
The French Government have allowed the
Italians to invoke its assistance.
Austria does not recognize the French as
an Italian power, and hence the bad feeling
above alluded to by Napoleon.
