Janu- ary 31st. from Liverpool via Queenstown. in eleven days. We 0le the following summary from Wilmer if: Smith‘s European Times of the 19th inst. Snow storms sbeund throughout Europe. Everywhere the winter appears to be universally severe. The lines of railway in the south of France have been impassable. The trains between Lyons and the Mediterranean cool not trawl in consequence of obstructions on the 17th. Orders were given that the pocket with the Indian mails should not leave until the arrival of the trams at Mar- seilles. In the south-eastern districts of England the fulls of snow have been heavy. 0n the thh the rail- ways between London and Dover were quite blocked up. The snow is represented as having drifted into the cuttings. and was there piled up to the extent of several feet. In this contest with the elements, the Louden. Chstham and Dover Company were very successful; they employed great gangs of aborers. and succeeded in clearing the line in an Incredibly short time. The no- thoritics connected with the south-eastern line were less happy in their efforts. though the soldiers at Shornclill'e were turned out to assist them. The near approach of the meeting of Parliament is creating some stir in the great world of London. Csb~ inet Councils are frequent. and whatever measures Lord Derby‘s Government intend to inaugurate during we forthcomln session must now be suiliciently advanced to admit o a reference to them in the Royal spucch, The Queen. it is new announced. will open l’arlis- ment on the bibsroxi‘mo in person. and battle between the his and the all will then fairly commence. The first sound of the impending conflict comes, strange to sky. from Florence. from which city Mr. Gladstone has addressed a circular to the Liberal mom- bere cf the House of Commons. asking them to be pre- sent at the opening of Parliament. on the 5th of Febru- ary. when important business will be brought forward. The Government has resolved not to comply with the request made to it in favor of a suspension of the regu- Ietlons for searching the lug age of persons returning from France while the Great filxblbition in Paris is open. The refusal has given great dissatisfaction. If the present Government are permitted to remain in oflice they will deal in some way with the Bank Char- ter. if one of their organs in the press is entitled to be- lief. It is not intended, according to this authority, to repeal the Act of 18“. but to discuss certain improve- ments which are deemed to be necessary. Amongst these will be a proposition to relieve the Bank of Eng- land of its present power of issues, and place it in the hands of Government. This is a sub’cct of the utmost importance to the whole commercil community. and has never received the degree of attention it deserves. The wonder is, how the evils of our monetary system— tho palpable and acknowledged evils—have been allowed to exut so long without redress. The trade of the coun- tr has nearly quadrupled itself since Sir Robert Peel‘s bi I passed. and yet there has been no change. It is not lea since the American war terminated. and cotton. in large increased quanties, found its way to England“; bu I art at the‘time is. it has been sufficient to glut the market with manufactured goods, which is producing its natural eons uenees in the workio of short time and the reduction in the wages of operatives. The cotton manufacturers. in this condition of things. have found it necessary to reduce wages five per cent.. and seeing no remedy, the workmen accepted the alter- native. Lieut. Brand. the young fellow who wrote Mr. Chas. Buxton such offensive and insulting letters from J erosion. has been recalled. and is now in England. When he admitted the authenticity of these rash and foolish com- munications. Sir John I’akissgtoa had no alternative but to mark his sense of the outrage which had been com- mitted on a member of the House of Commons. Lieut. Brand has thus blasted. b his own act. all chance of professional promotion. is! is not to be tried by court- martiul. but retires from active service on a cnsion of £125—not a hard punishment after all. am yet suffi- ciently strong to prevent other inconsiderate young men from following his crash is. It will be remember- ed in one of his letters. Lieutenant Brand spoke of “our” party being new in power—the part to which Sir John Pakington belongs—and his oscnt humiliation must be the roster because his recallras been the doing of “our.” t it is. of his own friends to politics. The Eastern question is still giving uneasiness to the .iiplomstists. as the relations between Greece and Tor. key are becoming more and more unfriendly. It is now asserted that the latter are pro sling a great armed force. with the object of compelling sreece to abstain from interference between the Christian subjects of the Porto andrtheir ruler. Is this movement likely to an- swcr the object? Is it not. on the contrar . the way to fan the flame which is now burning? If t e protectin Powers do not quickly interfere. the parties will be at each other's throats. and then we shall witness great commotion in Europe. Vice-Admiral Sir .I. R. Mnndy. K. C. 13.. hoisted his [leg on board the Duke of Wellington. as commander- in-chief of the West India station. ‘ Parliament woe formally prorogued on the 16th until the 5th of February. when it will assemble for the des- stcli of businen. The session will be opened by Her L ajsp'ty in person. and " with the same state as last ear. The Cabinet Councils were. it was understood. to be resumed on the 9th inet.. so that Lord Derby and his col~ leagues will have‘fonr weeks for deliberating upon the programme to be submitted to Parliament. C olors has almost disappeared from Dublin. Only 6‘" fatal cases were reported for the wssk ending 29th It 6. The British Government has resolved to maintain a strict neutrality in the quarrel bstwecn the Ports and the kingdom of Greece.

The late anti-Fenian demonstrations in Ireland have done much to restore ppblie confidence in that country. and to stren hen the ends of the Irish Executive. as the have s own that the middle-class population. as we l as the upper class. are thoroughly loyal. and re- ared. if necessary, to put down men with a firth hand. In a letter written b the direction of the Lord Lieutenant. the Secretary or Ireland (Lord Nana) ea- mm the conviction that thksceaf manifestations of oyalty will have tbs erect of showing how hopeless and insane are the ' s of those whose object is to promote treason am diesfisction in Ireland. A private house in llelfaat was entered on the 31st ult. by the police. who apprehended nine men engaged in manufacturing munitions of war in the shape of cart- ridges and bullets. At the residence of one of the prisoners. the police subse neatly seized thrones-ks of gunpowder. a number of ri cs. swords. sword-bayonet” and also several bottles of “ Greek fire." ‘ The revenue returns of Great Britain for 1866 show a not increase of £401.816 over 1865.

The Queen has taken a deep interest in the late yacht race across the Atlantic. At her request the yachts cruised, on 29:11 ult.. ell Osborne. and so pleased was Her Majesty with the sight. that she sent for Commodore M. Vickcr, of the New York Yacht Club. and expressed to him not only the de- light with which she had witnessed the boats. but also her sincere regret for the sad disaster to'lhe Flcclwing. Her Majesty hoped that the yachting party would return home with pleasurable recollec- tions of their visit to and reception in England. FRANCE. The cholera has again broken out in Paris. The speéch of the Emperor of the French at the NewlYear's reception was unimportant. Ills Ma- jesty hoped that the country was entering upon a new era of peace and conciliation. and that the In- ternational exhibition would tend to unite the as- tions of the earth by culming down the passion which now divided them. The Moniteur reviews the events of the past year and says that the relations of the Imperial Govern- ment with all Powers could not be more satisfactory or more friendly. The present year, therefore. commences under favorable auspices. It is semi- efheially announced that the plan for the reorgani- zation of the French army has undergone important modifications. The yearly contingent for the active army remains fixed at 100,000 men, whose period of service is limited to six years. men is divided into the active army and the depots. The rcmamder of the levy forms the reserve of the army. Letters received at Paris from Algiers announce a severe earthquake at the latter piece. The vil- lages of Chifl‘n. Eli Effrnn, Eli Ain, lieu Rnsmi and Mongaviuville were almost completely destroyed. and the town of Blidah was greatly damaged. In Mongaiville 37 persons were killed. and 100 in- jured. ' It is stated that the Emperor Napoleon is bent upon a triple alliance between France. Prussia and Italy; but it is probable that the proposed union will fall to the ground in consequence of the indie- position of Italy to enter into any alli nee with France. This announcement has cause quite a sensation. In well-informed circles in Paris. the belief prevails that the English Govarnment has been sounded on the subject. and that the overtures of France have met with an evasive reply, “Eug- lnnd, in the present state of continental affairs. not thinking fit to enter into engagements which might prove embarrassing. and might involve her in difll- culties which affect neither her honor nor her interest." IUWA AND AUSTRIA. The Emper of Austria is about to dissolve the sixth years' Diets and the Reichsreth. New cloc- tions will take place in all the ncn~linngnrisu pro- vinces. and an extraordinary meeting of the Reichs- rath will be hclsl in March. to effect a compromise with Hungary and to deliberate on a constitution for the empire. _ _. . The complete fusion‘of Russian Poland with the rest of the empire will tuke place in the course of the present month. after which everything that has distinguished the Poles, civilly and religiously. will be absorbed in Russia, and Russ will become the official language of the country. rum. King Victor Emmanuel. on the 1st inst.. met a deputation from the Italian Parliament, whom he thanked for their expressions of devotedness. The King reminded them’ that the country had secured civil administration. Feeling the importance of period of peace on which the country was entering. A rm: rams. ITATII.

The Spanish Cortes has been dissolved by royal decree. Liberia. which recently pointed to the probability of a coup d‘stat new announces that the danger is over. Despatcbea have been received at the Forelg. Oflios from Madrid. which. it is alleged, reveal the failure of the arbitrators to prevail upon the Peru- vians and» Chilians‘to subscribe to the conditions proposed to them. It is said the South American republics are girding up their loius for another con- flict. in which they hope again to give Spain a severe lesson. The Spanish Government learns with any- thing but satisfaction that the port of Callao is bristl- ing with causes. which have been procured from England and America. The Marine Minister is discencsrted. for he knew the real truth about the bombardment of Callao. and is apprehensive last a disabled Spanish fleet should again be thrown upon his hands to swell his budget. ’ The Cortes at Lisbon were opened by the Kipng Porto sl in person on the 2d lost. In the speech J from itary services by land and sea. and any ex ectations of Th is body of its independence. and with it an improvement in its maintaining the efficiency of the army. the Govern- mom would not lose sight of that service in the Advices from Madrid speak of the continuance of arrests in Catalonia, which have not ceased for "d fre'h “union.

The Island of Candie is about two hundred miles long and forty to fifty miles wide. The parts near the seas are comparatively level while the interior is a series of mountain elevations, difficult of access to regular troops, cannon or‘eavnlry. All of‘ the low- er parts are in the hands of the Sultan's forces; but the insurgents. having withdrawn into the mountains. hold out with remarkable bravery and tenacity. in the hope that the greater European Governments and that of the United States will take up their cause. and compel the Sultan to recognize their in- dependence or consent to their annexation to Greece. There are about fifty thousand Turkish troops on the island. and several war vessels endeavor to maintain a blockade but it is daily evaded by Greek ‘ syrups. thisers from Athens. who land men and arms. WARM (‘ORRESI’ONDENCE. The Irish papers publish a corres ondence which has taken place between Mr. de la ’oer, the liberal candidate for \Vnterford. and Sir E. Kennedy. Bart. it seems that Mr. de la Peer asked Sir E. Kennedy. for his support at the coming election, and that he was refused on the stated grounds that Sir E. Ken- nedy understood the hon. gentleman well a Fenian. As Sir E. Kennedy had since alleged that Mr. do la l’oer did not deny tbelaceosation. Mr. do la Poor demanded a retraction of the remarks, ails-using that he did emphaticaly deny the charge. Sir E. Ken- nedy replied :—-“I would not have stated such a thing had I not been quite certain of thtfaut. ‘ Tdid not car you deny the allegation. except on two points—namely, that you were obliged to leave this country for New Zealaod on account of our sym- pathy with the F's-lacs. and that you he not ever received any letters from ,lIr. O’flahou‘y‘. from America. Not only did I not hear you don 3th) the charges. but from one or more things staffs dor- iug the conversation. and to which I need not now refer, I felt convinced there was soms‘truth hi the report I heard." Mr. de la Poor thus retortst-‘d “ After these statements. unlesa you 'now \ by letter withdraw the charge you have mode. I shall be forced very reluctantly to trausgress the rules which should govern a correopondence between gentlemen. and to say that I consider you to be en assassin of private character, and a base culnmuiator; and I have yet to learn. by the notice which you will take of this com- munication. whether.in addition to the above, the stain of cowardice shall not be attached to your name. This letter will be handed to you by‘my' friend. Mr. Mansfield. who will await your reply for '24 hours." The baronst apologized and no duel was fought.
