The news from Europe is to the 18th instant, one
week later than previously received advices, and
is unusually important. Disquietude continued
on the Continent. A panic had prevailed in all the
money markets. The funds in Turkey had fallen
three per cent, in Russia three, in Sardinia
five, in France FIVE, and in Austria six, while
in London steady decline is noticed, the
latest quotations of consols being 95t 95s
for both money and account. 1t is estimated
that during two weeks the nominal value of public
securities declined sixty millions ofpounds sterling.
Rumoss Of war still prevailed: but Austria was
rapidly concentrating troops at various points in
Italy, France had assumed more pacific attitude
and it was believed that the crisis had passed.
At Liverpool cotton had declined one-eighth of
a penny though some circulars state that the de-
cline amounts to a sixteenth only. Breadstuffs
continued dull.
The steamship Arago sailed from Southampton
on the 18th for New York, and the Circassian left
Galway on the 18th for st. Johns. The steamer
Propeller, Of the Galway and New York line, got
ashore in Galway harbor, and sustained serious
damage.
The Arabia brings later news from India and
China. Commissioner Reed had published portions

tculars will probably reach us by the next steamer
The Illinois brings the San Francisco mails to the
5th inst, and l,2lO,7l3 in treasure. The general

and by advices to the 5th received via Tehuan
tepec
The steamship Washington, which left this port
on the 10Th ult. for Greytown, finding it impossible
to send her passengers across the Isthmus, pro-
ceeded to Aspinwall, and after brief delay at that
place left on the 10Th inst. on her voyage to San
Francisco via Cape Horn. Our correspondent on

The news from Sonora is important. The annual
message of Governor Pesquera, Governor of Sono-
ra. had been published. He charges bad faith on
our government in not preventing the incursions Of
the Apaches into Sonora from our territory, and
u
States for the damage they have done. The Cover
nor offers 1000 Sonorians to punish the Indians,
which the United States are to pay. The message
proposes that we pay premium for each Apache
captured. Besides their cheapness, the Sonorians
can range on each side of the line If in the service
of the United States, in chase of the Indians The
Governor also urges the lust and humane Cabinet
at Washington to form territorial government
for Arizona at once, that it may no longer be
place of refuge for outlaws. He says it will cost
no more to support those 2 600 Sonorians than to
feed those gigantic horses Of the dragons aione"
ana the cause Of these troops Offering TO serve
cheap is because the United States pays cash while
Mexico il unable to do so. The Governor thinks
the United States has given up the Pacific Railroad
project and established communication by camels,
mules and horses
