OF THE PERSIA.

New YORK, Sept. l9.-The steamship Per-
STA, from Liverpool Saturday, Sd inst, arrived
at this port about o'clock this morning She
brought 232 passengers. On the 9TH inst, at
10 o'clock P. NJ, she broke the crank pin of
her port engine, and laid to until the 18th at
945 P. NJ, proceeded under canvas.
The weather had been very stormy at Liver
pool, and the water was so rough on the 3lSt
ut., the day the Anglo Saxon and Kangaroo
were to have sailed, that the passengers could
not be placed on board by the respective tend
ers. Both vessels were consequently detained
i'll the Mersey until 10 A. NJ. on the LIST inst,
when they put to sea. Subsequent to their de
parture the gale moderated and no marine dis
aster of any consequence had been reported.
Accounts rom Italy say the advance of
Pontifical troops into the legations appeared
imminent, although the Moniteur Bologna au-
thortatively contradicts rumors of projected
aggression. The Roman government rejects
all reforms.
The GREAT EAsTERN.-The sailing of the
steamship Great Eastern has been postponed
till Sept. %. at a meeting of the Mersey
Lock Board, Mr.. McIver stated that as soon as
the result of the Great Eastern trial trip was
known, the Cunard company intended, if that
trial was successful, to order the construction
of a vessel for their service of great size. He
also stated that they were now building eight
large steamers including one paddle wheel
vessel larger than the Persia.
ITALY.-Le Nord states that Prince Poma-
towski had not gone to Italy for any political
object as reported from Paris, but simply on
private affairs.
The same journal says that, in a new note
addressed by Cardinal Antonei to the Ca
tholic powers, he not only rejects all reforms,
but protests warmly against what he calls an
attack on tho enVnrniUu riphts 0f tho Donn
The Moniteur of Bologna declares itself au-
thorized to contradict the rumors of any pro-
jects of aggression against the Romagna on the
part of the Papal troops. The Tuscan govern
ment had issued decree enactng that the
arms of the late Grand Ducal family shall be
obliterated from the government stamps, and
that the latter shall remain in blank until fur
Their orders. Some official correspondence of
the late Grand Duke of Modena had been
brought to light, which is anything but COM
plimentary to the Emperor Napoleon.
The correspondent of the Times says the
latest accounts received in Paris were far
from favorable The advance of the Pontii-
cial troops into the Legations was believed to
be imminent. If they are successful, the en-
try of the Duke of Modena into his states at
the head of his army was considered probable
but if the Papal advance is repulsed, a rising
in Naples would most likely follow.
A Milan letter expresses an apprehension
that bad blood was growing up between the
French army of occupation and the Italians.
The return of the French Ambassador to Rome
is accompanied by rumor that the Emperor
demands of his holiness the establishment, in
the legitimate Legations, of viceroy who shall
govern in the name of the Holy See.
JAPAN.-Dates from Japan are to the 9th of
june A difficulty which arose between the
American Consul and the Japanese govern
ment had been amicably settled An Ameri-
can, who had discovered a rich copper mine,
laid claim to the mine and to the soil, contrary
to the laws of the country.
The government resisted, and the affair as
sumed an unpleasant aspect, when the EN-
peror, to prevent all further dispute, proposed
that third Power should be selected as UNI
pire, and designated first France and then Rus
STA. The American Consul had not sent in
his answer when the author of the discovery,
who was morally certain of the result, gave up
his claims on the soil and solicited authorize
ton to work the mine and share the profits
with the japanese government. The offer was
at once accepted.
