From Europe.
We extract the following items Of news
by late arrivals at New York.
The London Post, of January 25, says
yesterday Mr. John Bright, NJ. p, paid
visit to Liverpool, and had an interview
with the American Consul. Mr.. Bright
was entertained to breakfast by number
Of the leading liberals, but the proceed
ings were private.
The London Star, Of January &c, thus
refers to the seizure of Peruvian man-cf-
war in London:
A very important question of interna-
tional law is likely to arise in reference to
armed and ready for sailing, at Green
hithe. The Spanish Consul, who has been
apprised of this fact, instructed Mr.. Beard
yesterday to consult the city authorities
as to warrant for stopping the vessel;
but Mr.. Beard was Informed that no
power was, vested in the city, and that he
had better apply to the Foreign Office.
Upon this, Mr. Beard communicated with
the Consul yesterday evening. So far as
the reporter has been informed, there is
no allegation that the vessel has been un-
lawfully enlisting in this country, and the
right Of the British Government to stop
the man-of-war Is somewhat debated.
THE SPANISH REVOLT.
When the insurgsnt leader arrived at
the frontier he had with him only $50 men
Aranruez and Ocagna. The others had
made their submission or fallen into the
power Of the royal troops. He had at
first Determined to enter Portugali i'll arms,
bnt he learnt, on the 18th, from a sure
source, that the Cabinet of Lisbon had de-
to pass the frontier with their arms. it
would authorize the Spanish troops to
pursue them into the Portuguese territory.
This intelligence modified his resolution,
and induced him to deliver up to the Al
calde OF Encinasola, in Spain, his arms
small supply Of war munitions in his pos
session. He appeared in very low epirits,
fatigued and suffering in health. On ar
irving in Portugal he found Portuguese
colonel with his regiment. He was told
that he could not reside in the country.
BE then asked for an authorization to en-
bark In the French steam packet, on which
he was informed that it had Just put to
sea, and was recommended to take the
English boat for Southampton, with an in
timation that there ne could go wherever
he pleased. His troops will be assigned
quarters in Portugal until further orders.
Paris Pdtrie, Jan. "a.
We hear from private letters that Prim
intends to embark at Lisbon for London,
and thence proceed to Paris, where his
family will join him. He is said to enter
tam some projects OF two years journey
to India and China.
The commanders of the various corps
sent out in pursuit of the bands of Cata-
lonia and Aragon give some accounts of
encounters with the rebels, in which these
latter fed at the very first shot. Escoda
was thus, it is said, defeated at Riba: and
the band commended by Ortega, Floriha
and Roya, at or near Alama, is reduced to
twelve or thirteen men. So says the bull
letlns. 1t Is very evident, in spite Of all
this news, that Government is anything but
treasured yet. Not only do we hear no.
thing about the cessation OF the state Of
siege In CASTLE, Catalonia, Aragon, Valen-
cla and Estremadura, but the same excep-
tonal jurisdiction has been extended to
Carthagena. The Gazette, of this morn
ing, publishes the decree by which the
Queen 'extinguishes" or suppresses the
two cavalry regiments of Calatrava and
Ba1len, I'd and Sd Hussars, those who stood
up for Prim at Aranjues. Nearly all the
sergeants and other non-commissioned
officers OF the fine cuirassier regiment of
Principle have been arrested and sent to
the penal settlem ents in Africa. 1t is now
more clear than ever that the vast conspi-
Senate was spread all over the army, and
included very noarly all the non-comnis-
stoned officers, all and each of whom will
have to be removed one way or other.

&sTo months at the longest He will

the old women used to prophesy when Ma
poleon was st st. Helena. He is to make
his appearance at Barcelona. He will raise
Valencia. He has partisans everywhere.

Hotel des Princes were all Lord Burleigh's.
They shake their heads continually.-Md-

The Journal de Cosnmercio, Of Lisbon,
says th"t General Prim would be received
in Port .gal as q Spaniard who has at
tempted, though unsuccessfully, to ibe-
rate his country from despotism.
The daily trial and conviction of Fenian
prisoners continued in Dublin. One of
the prisoners, under a verdict of guilty
being returned against him, admitted that
he had had fair trial and that honest
mep were on hejury.
The police had searched house in Gar
diners row, Dublin, (supposed to be an
Orange LODGE and found IL it quantity
Of swords and bayonets, which they seized
