er Circassia, from Liverpool on the 10th of
April, arrived off Cape Race last night. She
was intercepted by the news boat of the

The Continental news continues to be
threatening. The Peace Congress negotia-
tons are progressing slowly. Austria refu-
SEES to take part in them without Il simulta-
neous disarming.
Paris letters regard peace as hopeless
The movements of the French troops assume
the most threatening proportions. and pre-
parations otherwise continue. The Paris
Patrie, nevertheless, asserts that France has
not armed.
Austria's propositions for Il Peace Con-
gress are unacceptable to France; but. not
being prepared to take the field Immediately
Napoleon seeks delay. The Bourse was de-
pressed. but closed rather tirmer at 67.35.

Parliament on the affairs of Europe had
been postponed until the 18th instant.

to the civil and military officers and the ar
my in India, for the suppression of the re-
belliOn.
