•.* /'-J Ti R ?p ?1 Tll 2 Q 5 " ik- -jj 1 t& * Foreign News. Hy tile Steauier America. The news is of an important character, so far as England is concerned. Otherwise, however, ti is not of much consequence. The Russell ministry have been defeated on the Local Militia Bill, and has sent in their resignations. Lord' Palmerston had moved that the word 'local' should be taken out ot the bill, and that the force should be perambulatory—not con fined to England, Ireland and Scotland niereiv, but to be sent to any part of the kingdom it might be required. On this proposal the ministers joined issue, and were defeated by a vote of 9G to 125, upon which Lord John Russell intimated that, having lost the confidence of the House, he could no longer consent to hold office. The event was quite unexpected, seeing that on the previous evening the Ministers had a large majority on Lord Hume's motion of a ■want of confidence, arising out of the Claren don and Birch aifair, the vote on that occasion being 147 for and 122 against the bill. The steamship Arctic, with Liverpool dates to the 25th ult., arrived at New York, on Mon day morning. ENGLAND. —The Earl of Derby, formerly Lord Stanley, has been appointed l'riine Minister. Lord Lansdown, in the House of Peers and Lord Russell, in the House of Commons, have both declared that they would resist the attempt to re-impose a duty on corn. Generally speaking, the new ministry had been well received. Reports prevailed, how ever, that the opposition would refuse to vote the usual supplies, until Lord Derby announced the principles upon which the administration would act. Philip Griffith, late Secretary of the British Legation at Athens, has been appointed Secre tary to the British Legation at Washington. FRANCE. —The only incident attracting notice in tiiis country was the arrest of M. Baroche, one of the trustees of the Orleans property, on a charge of circulating seditious publications. The alleged protest of the Autocrat of Russia, addressed to Napoleon, is supposed to be with out foundation. Active negotiations were said to be going on to induce the Duchess of Orleans to consent that the Count de Paris shall waive his right to the throne of France in favor of the Due de Bordeaux. The demand of France for the destruction of the Waterloo Monuments, had created an in tense excitement in Belgium. Much energy was manifested in levying recruits for the year, and in exercising the military force. Diplomatic relations between Belgium and Russia w ere about to take place. Corn on the spot, as well as in cargoes afloat, sold freely at 6d advance. At .Mark Lane the advance has reached Is. There is a limited de mand for Wheat, but holders are firm, at pre vious prices. FLOUR MARKET —The demand has been good, prices stilfer, and quotations unchanged. WASHINGTON, March 9. The Intelligencer this morning publishes an official despatch from New Orleans, stating the receipt of information from Brazos, by the steamship Fanny, that Caravajal had been de feated in his recent attack upon Camargo. He had with him 522 men, of whom only £4 were Mexicans, the balance being mostly Texans. The revolutionists after their defeat, had fled to the American side of the Rio Grande. The Intelligencer officially contradicts there cent rumors of difficulties between France and the United States. Jt says the most friendly feelings have existed and still exist between the Two countries, and the recognition of the gov ernment by the United States was perfectly satisfactory. The jury in the case of Willis against Forrest, fur assault and battery, gave a verdict of j>2,- 500 against the latter. The office of the clerk of Kent county, (Kv.) court, was entered on Sunday night, and ai! the papers, records, and §70,000 in bonds and notes, were put in the stove and burned up. It was done, it is supposed, by some of the litigants, and §2,000 reward has been offered for their detection. SINGULAR SALE OF SLAVES —A negro wo man and several slaves were sold at Goldsbor ough, N. C., a few days ago, at prices ranging from §7ll to §827. The Guldsborottgii Patri ot says : — 44 They were tbe children of a free negro by the name of Adam Wynne, who had purchased their mother, his wife, previous to theirbirth. Tiiey were consequently hissiaves, ami he having become involved, they were sold to pay ins deots. HEREDITARY INSANITY. TH ClifltOn (Ft.,) Uourant says, tiiat a singular and melancholy instance of this strange disease is furnished in the family history of Mr. George Barrett, of Shinlev, m that State, who committed suicide hv hanging, on Saturday, the 31st uit. The mother of tlve deceased terminated her exist ence in the same manner ; a beloved sister, also, about ten years since, came to a similar unhappy end; and on Saturday morning last,a vottnger brother was touud (load in ins bed, with his throat cut in a shocking manner —all four committing the rash act without any appa rent cause.
