counties of England Many persons WHIT
were exposed to the violence of the storms

arrived at Liverpool yesterday from New
| Orleans with cargo of cotton, was strucB

and was considerably damaged. A portion

A special from Madrid says the state OF
Spain is alarming. Thele have been par
| tial rIsings of republicans in Andalusia
! since the conservatives proposed the dieta.
| t0rship of Serrano, with absolute powers
| for spending money and suspending tie
! constitution. The conservatives are en-
ragged at the rejection Of their proposals by
| the King, and say that the last attempt at
| forming a conservative ministry under
Amadeus has been tried. "A radical min
istrY, and then the deluge," exelaims a
SerranOist journal. 1t is said that SerranO
has left for England in disgust, and that
Sagosta has left for France. The radicals
are arming the population of towns.
ROME, June l9.-The Pope has addressed
a letter to Cardinal AntOnelli deploring the
approaching enforcement of the law sup
pressing converts in Italy as a violation of
international law. He says the constant
eucroachments on the rights of the Church
by the government of Italy violates morality
and justice. Only regard for the highest
interests prevents the head of the Church
from leaving Rome. A conflict between the
Holy See and the Italian government is in
evitabIe, and that reconciliation is impOs-
sibie. The Pope can not submit to such
usurpations, and he requests AntOnell to
protest against them to foreign powers.
BERLIN, June 19.-The North German
Gazette in leading article hints that Ger
many will make her influence telt in the
election of the next Pope.
The bill prescribing the Jesuits passed it's
third reading in the Reichstag to.day-lSl
to SO.
Minister Delbruck closed the session of
the Reichstag this afternoon.
An official dispatch from P0rt-au-Prince
reports that on the eleventh instant two
German men-of-war, the Veuta and Ge-
solte, took fOrcible possession of two Hay
tian cOrvettes, and held them until the
Haytians paid the indemnity demanded by
the German merchants. There was no
blOOdshed.
GENEVA, June 19.-The board of arbitra-
ton met to-day and adjourned to the TWEEN
ty-sixth instant. 1t is expected that intel
ligence will be received by that date which

New YORK, June ia Herald special
from Geneva yesterday says: Another very
long day has been passed by the agents and
counsel OF the two contracting powers.
From an early hour this morning they
have been engaged in long consultations.
Last night the Americans had arranged
some pleasant excursions. with an early
start this morning, but at late hour both
sides received important dispatches which
caused the postponement of the trip.
Shortly before ten o'clock Sir r. Palmer
visited Mr.. Evarts, and repeated the visit
at a later hour. This afternoon Mr. Evarts
had a long conversation with the British
agent. The American counsel have been
fully occupied, not only in seeing each
other, but in receiving and forwarding long
dispatches.
1t is evident that unless counsel on both
sides come to some agreement, acting upon
the instructions of their governments, the
court Will again meet on Wednesday, pro
fOrmu, and be requested once more to ad-
jOurn. In that event it will not be surpris-
ing to hear of adjournment for several days,
because the agents of both parties find that
an interval of one day does not give suffi-
cient time for the transmission of telegraphic
dispatches, and in this respect the Ameri-
cans are at a greater disadvantage, as their
communications must be sent to London,
and then to Washington by cable. Both
governments receive the best of assistance
from the Swiss and French telegraph di-
rectors.
It is not improbable that adjournment
will enable one or both sides to surrender
their ground, or consent to certain mOdi-
ficatiOns, which could not have been done
before without exposing themselves to the
charge of having given way to the dicta-
ton of the opposite side.
1t is very evident that efforts are being
made to adjourn until next week. in hopes
EorI vilIa and GppVatppv kiab
may in time arrive at some understanding,
and enable the arbitratOrs to commence
their work.
The arbitrators pass their time character
istieally. Count Scl0pis, cOurtly, loyal
gentlemen, made an excursion to paw his
respects to Princess Clothilde at her villa
on the shores of Lake Leman, a short dis
tance from here. Mr.. Adams passed the
day in a charming antique chateau. Baron
D'Itajuba must have felt great anxiety at
being unable to visit his daughter, who is
lying i'll at Frankfort. Citizen Stampfi is
to be seen taking his beer at a little table
in front of a cafe. Chief Justice COckburn
is least recognized; he takes his carriage
for exercise. AS vet there is very little ac-
quaintance between the members of the
court. The sittings have been so short and
abrupt that there has been only time for
the merest acquaintance.
Ag
the board, Secretary FayrOt Informed the
representatives of the press that they
would be admitted to the council room as
soon as certain delicate questions were
settled.
A vague impression prevails that indirect
claims are causing fresh difficulties.
1t is said the arbitrators will give de-
cisiOn on the question OF adjournment at
the next session, even in the absence Of the
parties interested.
Important dispatches from London are
expected by the British representatives
here, which will determine their course of
action on Wednesday next.
