Latest from England,
By the arrival of the ship Cortes, captain
Be Cost, from Liverpool, the editors of the
New York Commercial Advertiser have
received London papers to the 10:h and
Liverpool to the 11th of September, with
regular files of Lloyd’s List to the 8ih.
The quegn’s trial was adjourped from the
sith of September, sto the 3d of October.
The evidence on the part of the crown had
closed, and the adjournment was to give
time to the queen’y witnesses to arrive.
The Times states, that after the examin-
ation of the 25th witness, the attorney
general prayed for an allowance of more
time to enable witnesses, who had for some
time been expected to reach London, to
arrive. He observed that he understood
the delay to have resulted from the treat-
ment the first witnesses received on their
landing at Dover. On the next day, the
attorney general observed, that he had since
been informed, that the persons in question
could not arrive as soon as expected, and he
withdrew his application.
The Observer states that several of the
witnesses on the partof the queen had ar-
rived, among whom were persons of the
highest fespectability in Italy, The same
Chapel had upwards of 25,000 signatures.
One was presented at the same’ time {rom
the ladies of Sheffield, which contained
1 0,600 names.

POLITICS OF EUROPE. ¢
By the Ann Muria, arrived at New York
from Liverpool, we have received our regs

Tte emperor of Russia has officially de-
claved, through his ambassador to the Ger

affairs of other states, on 2ccount of innova-
tions iutroduced into the government of

“interview with the emperor of Austria is
far from having for its object to concert
means or measures tending (o suppress the

The Austrian monarch has also declared
that his military preparations towards Italy
are not for the purpose of interfering with
tie Neapolitan revolution, but to maintain
tranquility in his own Italian dominions —

Summary. —Mr. Canning bas been di-
rected to procecd to Vienna to explain to
the Austrian government the sentiments of
the British court on the affairs of Spain &
Italy. The emperor of Russia is «to be at
Vienna.
It was rumoured that an iavitation had
been sent to the king of Prussia to meet the
Emperors of Austiia and Russia at Vienna,
The object of their conference is thus stat-
ed in an Austrion paper. “ We know with
certainty that the Sovereigns will come to
an understangiing as to the most suitable
means - of Soimbating that revolutionary
spirit which manifests itself anew in the
South of Europe. It would be indiscreet
to announce before band the Resolutions
which may be adopted on this subject; but
we are authorized to announce to the friends
of Order, Religion, and Legiumate gov-
ernments, that their hopes will not be this
time disappointed.”
The Russian anti-revolutionary note has
been published at Madrid, with some sey-
ere remarks.
It is established on official authority,
that Austrian troops have been ordered to
Italy. A Berlin article says, that the Prus-
sian soldiers envy the Austrians their march
to Iwaly, being indignant against the _Nea-
politan’ military. The ¥ice Roy of Naples
has refused to give audience to the depu-
ties from Sicily till Palermo submis to the
Royal authority. ;
Ships are said to be proceeding from
Bombay to Englend in ballast, the cotton
crops having failed. ha ;
In Baden the excise duties on tobacco,
oil and wood are abelished.
A new bounty is granted in England on
vessels engaged in the Cod and Whale
Fisheries.
The banditti are so numerous in the dis-
trict of Cordova, Spain, as to have levied a
contribution on a town containing five thous.
