Ministry-Tho Naval Supremacy Assured.
TELEGRAPH TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

LONDON, Feb. 49, 1871
The debate In the House Of Commons last night
on the subject OF the policy toward the bellgerents
on the Contnent-thc preliminary points OF which
reported to the HERALD by cable lelegram-became
very animated ana general subsequent to the trans
mission OF my despatch.
The prevailing tone OF the as emblaGe was that
Englands weak nestancy had lost her the respect
OF both Delligerents and invited an early war for
her own existence.
Premier Gladstone recapitulated the negotiations
at ST. Petersburg, which, he said, had been fruit
lessly made to depend upon Lord Lyons withdrawal.
He said that he believed magnanimity on the part
OF the Germans at the present point OF the struggle
would benefit not only France and Europe, bat Ger
many itssii
The subject here dropped and discussion ensued
upon the naval administrator. during which Mr..
Gladstone again addressed the House In defence or
the Admiralty, asserting "that during Mr. Childers'
administration nearly two millions of taxation were
saved to the country and the maritime supremacy
Of the nation at the same time assured"

The Ardlanche little Rock special says:--"The
roll was called in the Senate this morning. thirteen
being present. Immediately afterwards the Mana
gers OF Governor Clayton's impeachment case ap-
peared at the door. The SergeantatArms at
first refused them admittance but on their
insisting he finally admitted them, and an
nounced their presence and desire to communi-
cate with the Senate. The President responded that
they could not be received as the Senate was not in
session, and motion TO call the House would be
decided out OF order.
Mr.. Carroll insisted on the Presidents putting the
notion and said It was trick to prevent the mana
gers from proclaiminQ the impeachment Of the
Governor.
Some wrangling took place, when q motion was
put to adjourn until tomorrow, which was carried
thus preventing an official announcement OF the
impeachment
Governor, dated yesterday, stating tnat he had been
unoflcally informed or articles OF impeachment

advised to take charge OF the State government by
force. The best talent informed him that he could
not be suspended until regular articles OF mpeach

ana he officially notified or the same When that
Was done he would readily surrender his office.
Governor Howard moved that the message be re-
jected, which was carried by vote Of AZ 10 81.

The Little Rock Republican says:-s'The organiza-
tion Is for the avowed purpose OF inauguratiug a
rebellion and turning the state over to the dc.
mocracy, composed of the Old Ku kux klan and
White Chamelias, which organization Is being per-
lected In TINS city. Governor Brown In council
with the democrats, assured them OF the assistance
OF the filth and scum OF Tennessee. Meetings have
been held during The last three days, the object
being resistance TO the law. Distinguished Con-
federate generals were at the meetings. and If the
meetings are continued the names of the leaders
In the matter Will be given TO the public, and II the
meetings then continued there VIII not be tllr
