LITTER FROM EUROPE,
THE SPEECH OF LORD JOHN
RUSSELL.
UNION ME TING IN PARIS.

HALIFAX, June 10.
The Arabia from Liverpool, Saturday
evening, June 1st, via Queenstown End,
arrived here this evening. Her news is
three days later.
In the House of Commons on the Both
of May, Lord John Russell intimated that
an EDglishman had been forced into militia
service at New Orleans, but that the Brit
ish consul there had ordered bis release.
Other similar circumstances had been re-
ceived from the Montgomery government,
deprecating such acts. During his speech
he also deprecated the exultation with
which Sir John Ramsden had alluded to
the bursting of the BUBBLE of Democracy in
America. In common with the great bulk
of his countrymen, he (RusselD was deeply
panied at the civil war which had broken
out in the United States, and which arose
from the accused question of slavery, left
them by England, and which had chung
around them like a poisoned garment from
the first hour of their independence.
The London Times, on the American
blockade and Englands position says that
now, while there is yet time, the European
Governments should come to an under
standing on the subject and adopt public
law.
FRANCE.-American citizens in Paris
favorable to the Union met together on the
29th inst About $50 attended, one tn I'd
being ladies, including the wife of General
Scott.
MIR. COwdin, of Boston presided.
A resolution was adopted pledging the
meeting to maintain the Union under any
circumstances.
Mr.. Dayton said since his arrival in Pa.
rls he could detect no unfriendly feeling on
the part OF France to the United States,
and certainly no French citizen will be
found among their privateers. He express
ed the conviction that the rebellion would
be put down.
Cassus NJ. Clay spoke at some length
and was energetic on the conduct of Eng
land. He declared that if ever the flag of
England became associated with the black
flag of the South, the banner OF the United
States and the tri color of France would
be seen against her, for France has not for
gotten st. Helena.
Col. Fremont also spoke, and was received
with enthusiasm. He made quite a moder-
ate speech. He said be regretted this war,
but ielt confident that it would end in the
triumph OF truth and justice. He had been
called back to America, and lost no time in
responding, and be was ready to give his
best services to his country.
Rev. DIR. McClintock followed, and said
he did not attach any Importance to the
mutterings of the English press on the
war. The people oil England had not spo.
keD.-When thew did their v0ice would not
be found on the side of piracy and slavery.
A decree had been issued, opening all
the seaports OF France for imports OF cotton
yarn OF certain numbers.
The Bourse on the 3lst Of May closed
heavy at 69f 40c.
Prince Gortschakoff, Governor. of Pc
land, died at Warsaw on the Both May.

Illinois Troops Cross the River ut Cairo,

CAIRO, June 6.
In view of reports received at this Camp
last evening, that body of armed Kentucky
secessionists had established camp at Eli
OTIS Mill, ten miles below here, and were
robbing and forcing into the secession ranks
all within their reach, Gen. Prentiss de-.
tailed and sent two companies to that point.
When they reached there the enemy had
left, and have not yet returned.
Hon. Mr.. Wickliffe, who represents the
sovereignty of Kentucky in some official
character, on hearing our troops had tres
passed upon that sovereignty, paid visit to
General Prentiss this morning. He pro-
tested against the invasion in the name of
his State. A consultation of considerable
length of time ensued, in which Gen. Pren~
tiss showed Col. Wickliffemany letters from
Kentucky, asking protection from ruffianism
and secessiOnists. Among the letters were
many from Col. Wickliffe's own county,
asking protection or arms.
Gen. Prentiss finally informed COL Wick
life that he would send his troops in what
ever direction and upon such soil as his
government ordered.
Col. Wicklffe acknowledged that he knew
Of the gathering of rebels at ElOt's Mills
but had taken no measures to dislodge
them.
The rebel force at Union City is now es-
tlmated at from six to ten thousand.

the news OF Senator Daugas' death. The
President and Cabinet Ministers, with
whom Mr.. Douglas had recently had fire.
quent interviews, lament his loss most deep
ly. The following order on the death of
Senator Douglas was issued from the War
Department
WAR DEPARTMENT, June 4.
The death of great statesman in this hour
OF peril cannot be regarded otherwise than as
national calamity. Stephen A. Douglas ex-
pired in the commercial capitol of Illinois yes
terday morning at nine o'clock. A represen-
tatiye of the OverpOwering sentiment enlisted
in the cause in which they are engaged a
man who nObly discarded party for country;
Senator who forgot all prejudice in an earn
est desire to serve the public; statesman who
lately received for the chief magistracy of the
United States vote second only to that by
which the President was elected, and who had
every reason to look forward to long career of
usefulness and honor ; patriot who defended
with equal zeal and ability the Constitution as
II came to us from our fathers, and whose last
mission upon earth was that of rallying the
people OF his own State of Illinois as one man,
around the glorious flag of the Union, has been
called from the scenes of life and the field Of
his labors. This department.. recognizing in
his deceaSe loss in common with the whole
country, and profoundly sensible of the grief
1t will excite among millions of men, hereby
advises the Colonies of the different Regiments
to have this order read tomorrow to their re-
spective commands, and suggests that the
coors of the republic be draped in mourning
III honor of the illustrious dead.
