Foreign News.
The steamship Pacific, with Liverpool dates
to March 13th, urrived at New York on Sun
day afternoon. Breadstuff's were depressed.
Wheat had declined 2J, and flour OJ to Is.
Provisions continued in good demand. The
political news is not important. The re elec
tions oi the new ministers were proceeding.
France was quiet. The difficulties with Switz
erland have been arranged for the present 1
Tiie legislative Council and Senate were con- i
voked tor the 29 th inst. .More favorable ac- .
counts from the Cape of Good Hope have been ,
received. A desperate mutiny occurred 011 the
packet ship Queen of the West, at. Liverpool,
on the 6th. The police went on hoard and
quelled it, and the ship sailed on the 9;h with
u new Captain and crew.
A London letter ot the otii March, say £ — j
There is nothing new from any part of the j
continent, except the announcement from the i
Prussian Government that, in consequence of
the scarcifv of fool in Germany, all the ports
of the Zoifverein have been thrown open for
the admission of grain, fl-.ufr and vegetables,
duty tree, until the 31st of August next.
'The meeting at Manchester tor the revival
of the Anti-Corn-Law League, was a crowded
one. George Wilson, the former chairman,
presided, and a large number of the: most zeal
ous and distinguished members of the League
were present.
A memorial, addressed to the Queen, remou
f?irating against the re-impositiou of protective
duties on corn,"~"was presented to the meeting
and adopted.
Papers were tSien handed round, and in
about twenty-five minu'es the chairman an
nounced th iL £26,500 had been subscribed, be
hci.ig at the rate of more tlisn £IOOO per
minute. (Cheers.) This, he said, surpassed
everything that could have been supposed possi
ble, considering the want of previous prepare*
t on. Nothing would tend so rapidly to settle
me question as a large subscription list to be
gsn'witii. A committee would sit daily during .
the week to receive subscriptions.
The Voss GazeJte states, under the head of
Vienna, Feb. 23. that the Austrian Cabinet had
declared its entire approbation of the conduct
of M. Ilu'isemann, the Austrian Charge d'Af
fairs in the United States.
Advices from St. Petersburg inform us that
the position of the French Minister there was
daily growing more difficult. It bad lately
been remarked that tie had had very frequent
conferences with Count Nesseirode, and nnme :
uiateiy after one of these he despatched a
member oi the inissson witiia verbal statement
of some business of strange import to the Pres
ident. fSince that period M. de (Jastlebajac is .
said to have avoided all diplomatic intercourse,
and hardly to have quitted his hotel, appearing
to wait for despatches from his government
with great anxiety.
The Emancipation, of Brussels, states that
the Duke de Leuchtenberg, son-in-law of the
Emperor ot Russia, lias, within tfie last few
days, oi vested 500,600 francs m the Belgium
funds.
' The Journal of St. Petersburg, of the 20th,
contains accounts of new and brilliant success
es obtained on the 6;h and 7th January, in the
Caucasus, by the Russians, under Gen. Prince
llariuiilinski, over the mountaineers, command
ed by Chamvl. The operations took place in
the great Techetchnia, which-was completely
devrstated. Alter two days' fighting, and
much skilful mamcuvreing, Charnyl was com
pletely defeated.
Letters from Cracow, recently received in
Paris, mention that numerous magazines are in
course ot formation on the neighboring frontier
of Russian Poland.
It is reported that M. Rothschild is the prin

Costumes for i-'renrh Senators and Coun
cil tors of State.
Louis Napoleon, the Republican President,
has deciued upon the costume of the Senators
and Councillors of Ptate, which is truly French
in its fanciful character. The grave and
reverncd Senators are to wear a coat of biuc
velvet, with standing collars and cuffs em
broidered, fitting close to the wuist, and orna
mented won embroidery on the pocket flips.
The embroidery is to be in gold, representing
palm trees interlaced with oaks; the palm
trees in cowietitle mule, with the buck of the
palm leaves in spangles, the oak leaves being
worked >iv pugsc, with the lines of leaves in
spangles; the whole of the coat to be edged
r,,ur>d with embroidery, three inches wide at
least. Council of State— Light blue coat with
nine gilt buttons in front; waist-coat of white
y/Oj-i/e, cut straight, wi'h five gilt buttons;
irousers of white kerseymere, with gold bands
down the sides. The vice president, the
president of sections, and the councillors of
state are to wear gold embroidery composed or
oak leaves and olive leaves interlaced, on the
collar, cuffs, the front of the coat and coat
tails, the whole coat being edged with go'd
embroidery. The vice-president has gold em
broidery a Hove the pockets, and an edging of
wide embroidery round the dreEs in every part.
The masters ot request are to have the same
!e.-ci iption of-gold embroidery on the collar,
cuffs and pockets, with narrow embroidery
round the coat. The auditors have embroidery
on the collars and cuffs, but none round the
. ~at. The hat is of black beaver, with gold or
naments p'aced on the velvet, white plumes
for the* vice president and presidents of sec
tions, and black plumes for the councillors of
nsie, the masters of requests and auditors.
The sword is to be a straight one, with gilt
hilt, in undress, Ihe councillors ot Mate and
ilie masters of requests, are to wear coats em
broided on the collar and cuffs, but without
rhe gold edging, white waistcoat, and black
trousers, 'i here is enough of gold here, surely,
to dazzle the eyes of the people, and to com
pensate, perhaps, for any hole deficiency of
the article in their own pockets. -
HEAVY FAILURE.— The business community
have been taken by surprise, in the suspension
of Meserß. Moore Hooven, of Norristown,
who have been largely engaged in the iron >
fiueitmss for some years. It is hoped that their
creditors will make some arrangements, that
will enable them to prosecute business again.
The Pol into wn Ledger say* that they very
honorably called in their workmen, and paid !
them off* before quitting work. Their lia- j
biiitiea are about 100,000 and their works and

Loss OF THE CLAY MEDAL— The splendid
gold medal, which was recently presented to
the Hon. Henry <7l ay by a number of citizen;,
of New York, in testimony of their admiration
tor his great public services, is said to have
been lost in that city on Saturday evening,
i Pith inst. It appears it was entrusted by Mr.
i ('lay to Miss Lynch, in Washington, to be lie
j livered to Mr. Ullman in New York, and that
! she left the former city on Friday, in company
j with the family of Chailes Bitier, Esq, who
' induced her to place it in hiscarpet bag, which
he held in his hand until he arrived in New
I York on Saturday afternoon. It was then
placed on tho driver's 9eat of the hack which
conveyed them to the dwelling of Miss Lynch,
but on their arrival in Ninth street, the bag
with its valuable contents wasmissing. Search
was immediately instituted, and a rewai^ol
: #SOO offered for its recovery—but. so far, with
out success. It was of solid gold, enclosed in
a massive silver case, and Cost #2 500.
THE PLAGUE. —It is stated that much ap
prehension is felt in New Orleans of the ap
ptu.tch of a new disease called the plague, and
is now said to he prevailing m some of the
West Imliu Islands. A disease by the same
name lias made its appearance in some parts of
the Vest. It is said to be like the cholera,
but more fatal. Whether it is the same dis
| ease as that which goes by tho name of plague
in the East is not stated.
The Boston Medical Journal aihniestot.be
subject as follows 1
'it is very certain, from the accounts re
| ceived, both here and hi England, that tfie true !
plague has been introduced into Madeira, and I
the wrrk of death has been really appalling.
The question his frequently been agitated, j
• will that dreadful disease ever reach tins con
tinent?' There is reason to believe it will ; i
the wonder is why it iias not already
Our commercial iutercourr-e is extensive with [
various parts of Africa and the Asiatic shore j
of the Mediterranean, where this great scourge j
is never dead or dying, but simply reposing
from one period to another, like a fatigued j
giant, to gather strength for a renewal ot
slaughter. Should it come, it mav be honed
there will be found more science, and a
stronger barrier of medical skill, to meet and
disarm it of its terrors, than ha* been exhibited
in tropical climates, or in the liithy,scourge
inviting regions of .Moslem Turkey. Plague,
appertains to (lie Arabs in this age; and whore .
the same condition of things exist as character- I
izes their modes of life, their social condition,
and the absence of all common-sense efforts to
avert or arrest it, will have an abiding tbollioid '
BOUNTY LAND WARRANTS. —TIiebiII making
land warrants assignable, having passed both
Houses of Congress, the Intelligencer says, there
is no reason to doubt, it will at once receive flu
signature of the President, and thus beet.me a j
law. it will benefit many of the recipients of
this bounty of the Government, who, possessing
wairants lor land, are themselves unable fo lo
cate them.
This act authorizes all warrants issued, or
hereafter to be issued, under any law of the
United States, ami all valid locations, tn b
assignable by deed or instrument of writing,
made and executed after the taking effect o;
toe act according to forms and regulations pre
scribed by the commissioners of the General
lund Office. Any person entitled to pre-emp
tion right to any land, shall be entitled to use
any such warrant in payment of the san e, at
#1.25 per acre. Warrants may be locme lin
one body u|x>n any lands m the United States,
subject to private entry at tie* time of such !o
cation, at the minimum price. When said
warrants shall be located on lands which aie
subject to entry, nt a greater minimum than
$1,25 per acre, the locator of said warrants
sliail pay to the United States, in cash, the dif
ference between the value of such warrants at
#1,25 per acre and the tract of land located on.
REGISTRATION LAW. —The bill uroviding
ibr the Registration of Marriages, Biftiis and
Deaths, passed at the last session of the L'*gis
aiure, lias become a law without the signature
of Gov. John.-ton; agreeably to the provision
of the Constitution which requires bills passed
at a previous session to bo returned within
three days after tin? mc 'nig of the next
Legialatuie. We think that its observance
will occasion no little 1 rouble to the parties n
{crested, viz:—clergymen, and ail who per
form ihe marriage ceremony, physicians, coro
ners, sextons, ic.

General Scott and the I-oeofocos.
The Indianapolis .State Journal relates
the following amusing incident, which oc
curred at the :e.-ent Indiana Locofoco
State Convention.
Mr. ( ase, at one time connected with
the Cincinnati Inquirer, introduced :i reso
lution in favor of universal war, and of
whipping all Fit rope into republicans,
whether they want republics or not. Mr.
Case said tiiat 4 place Gen. Scott at the
head ol ten thousand American soldiers,
and he would march to the gates of St.
Petersburg.' This remark called down
thunders of applause, in which the Whigs
present joined.* At this, Mr. Hughes sug
gested that they intended to 4 send General
Scott to the head waters of the Salt River,
and could not spare him to go and whip
Russia.' 4 No matter for that.' said the
indomitable Case, 4 Scott could go to Salt
River and afterwards whip Russia, and
the balance of Europe thrown in.' This
did not sit very well with the Democracy.
We heard one of them swear that he did
not come there to hear a Whig speech.
Five Dollars Reward
