THE gAZESTB. Foreign News. The U. S. mail steamship Pacific, arrived at New-York on Sunday, brings Liverpool dates to the 28th ultimo. We find the following items of interest in the papers brought by her: ENGLAND. —The elections are now over, with the exception of five vacancies still to be tilled, namely, Orkney and Wick in Scot land, and Tyrone and Donegal in Ireland. It is, even with the returns before us, a dif ficult matter to foretell what majority—for majority they will have —the Derby ministry are able to command in the House. The classified lists, published by the leading pa pers, differ so widely that they be regarded only a mere approximation to truth ; and the terms Ministerial and Opposition in tfio pre sent contest embiace so many shades of po litical opinion that we cannot indicate with an approach to certainty the numerical force, on any division that would involve the fate of the Government. The Globe sets down the number at—Liberals '229, Derhy-D'lsraelites 289, doubtful 30. The Morning Chronicle, Ministerials 290, Whigs and more advanced Liberals 310, Liberal-Conservatives, or P(.el ites, between 50 and 00. MINISTERIAL CHANGES. —It is again rumored that changes are about to be made in the Foreign office. Lord Malmesbury will, it is said, succeed Lord Canilev at Paris, the latter going to Constantinople, *and the portfolio of Foreign Affairs will then be confided to Lord Canning, better known iu- Sir Stratford Can ning. MISCELLANEOUS. —On the 24th the subma rine cable between Donaghadee, Ireland, and Portpafrick, Scotland, was laid down success fully, but was not put in connection with wires on land. ELECTION RIOTS JK IRELAND. —In Ireland deplorable scenes have taken place at the elect ion in county Clare, South of Ireland, the military were called out and several lives sacri ficed. On Thursday, polling for Sir J. F. Fitz gerald, CorneliusO'linen, and Col.Yanderleur, at Six Mile bridge, about seven miles from Limerick, when a riot arose between the vo ters on the respective sides. No clear state ment of the affray can be had, but the most probable version of the story is, that the country people threw stones at a party of Lord Conyngham's tenants who were pro ceeding to the polls under an escort of mil itary, and thai some of their missiles striking the soldiers, they fired a volley among the crowd, and killed five men on the spot, lie sides wounding five or six others —three mor tally.. Twelve shots were fired by tjie F.oldiofs gnd ail took effect. It is asserted that no orders were given to tire. A jury had been empan i tolled : but, at latest accounts had not re turned a verdict. Most of the' Irish provincial papers that have come to hand teem with accounts of election outrages. At Builinna, the police had to charge the crowd with the bayonet. At Roscommon and elsewhere, the same disturbances took place. The outrages an- much regretted by the moderate men ol' all parties. FRANCE.—I. mis Xupoh on returned to Paris op priday evening, the 2bd ult., from Stras bourg. He drove in an open carriage, be tween two lines of troops, about the U xile vards, the Rue Royale, and the Chumps Klysee, to the Barriere de I'Etoilo. llis re ception is described as having been extremely (ordial on the part of the Parisians. Ex tensive preparations are already making for !ii journey to the South. The Min i ipal Council of Montauban have voted 20,u00 francs; Rosfjnna, 1U,U00; Bordeaux, 50,000; and Panda a like sum to give him a welcome. For some time past, the President has been arranging his household on quite un imperial footing. Gen. Roquet is to lie Grand Marsh al of the palace: Col. De Beville, Palace Prefect : Count fined.iochi, Grand Master of the Ceremonies; Col. Fieurvi Grand pquer- I V. See, It trapspj;-, r that new titles of nobility continue to ire conferred, without any public announcement of tlmm. The I'utrii has ta ken to styling the President " His Highness Moja&eignour the prince President-,' but all the opposition journals omit this handle to hie name. Nevertheless, these straws are taken as an indication that the wind again sets in an imperial direction. An addition al subject of gossip is h-und in tin- u' proa h ir.g fete on the 15th of August, the birthday nf the Emperor, which occasion as many reminiscences of the Empire as can will le* revived. One of the. most impressive parts of the ceremonial was to have been the inau guration of Napoleon's tomb in the invalids, but the works cannot be completed i;i season. M. Arnrand Renin, editor and proprietor of the " Debate," was sent fur, the other day. by the Minister of Police, and reprimanded for having announced the changes about to take place in the Ministry The Minister did not deny the accuracy of the statement, but declared that Government would not permit the Press fo announce any changes in the Cabinet till the official decree had appeared. The approaching marriage of the President is regarded in Paris as a fact beyond doubt. The Truly, however, is now said not to bi the Princess'de Yasa, but another Baden princess, grand daughter of Eugene Beauharnais and of Don Pedro, Another body of Emigrants sent to Cali fornia with the proceeds of the Ingot lottery, have just left Paris for Havre, and are to embark immediately on board the ship Ma gellan. The decree of the 22d January continues to he rigorously enforced. Placards are post ed, announcing for sale the forests belonging to the Due d'Aumalc, in the departments of the Ardennes, Mouse, and Aisne. Accounts from the departments describe the ravages occasioned by the late storms. In the Aisne particularly, a hurricane had caused great destruction ol property. ITALV.—The Turin Gazette contradicts, as absurd, the rumor that the island ol Sardinia is to be sold to England. The Milan Gazette quotes a letter from Rome, which states that public attention re gards as suspicious the numerous fortifica tions which the French are constructing around the castle of St. Angelo, as also the circumstances that Gen. Levuilliart, under the pretext of instructing the pontifical artillery men, has withdrawn them from Civita A ;<■- cbia and the other defences on the coast, all of which he has occupied with French ar tillery. On the other hand, it is asserted that a communication has been made to the Austrian Government that the French gar rison will quit Rome within a year. Grape blight has again appeared in many parts of Upper Italy and Tuscany. La Sicily, we learn from the Catania Journal, it has to tally ceased its ra^g^os. PRUSSlA.—Considerable sensation has been excited in Berlin by the confiscation, for three successive days, of the New Prussian (or Rreutz) Journal and it? subsequent declara- tion that it would cease to appear till the j courts of law shall have decided upon the le gality of its seizure. The Journal had made itself" obnoxious to the French, Austrian and Russian envoys, and had gained many ene mies by its plain speaking. The crown j lawyers have since sanctioned the confisca | tioji. : I The National Zeitung, of Berlin, has an j article on the treaty just concluded between ! Switzerland and the United States, in which ' I it remarks that the impolitic London proto- ; col regarding Neufchatel, has hastened the I period for the commencement of American , interference in the affairs of Europe. We lcaru from Berlin that Mr. Barnard, ! the American Minister in Berlin, has succee- j ded in procuring the release of several Prus sians who had naturalized as citizens of the ; the United States ; but on their return for a 1 j short time to their native country, wore ar- ! rested on a charge of evading the military ■ ! conscription. j Cholera is severe at Ostrowe. On the 19th >. j ultimo, a fire took place at Kalisch, which j destroyed GO houses. Cholera had previous- j ly committed great ravages in the town. Several Poles were lately arrested in the I Duchy of Poscn, on the charge of conspiracy j against the Emperor Nicholas. I The King of Prussia and Emperor of j Austria are to have an interview in the end j of September. Items of News. 'BARN BURNT. —The barn of Abraham Lan- j dis, iu Ephrata township, was entirely con- j ; sullied by fire, on Saturday morning last, ; with the whole crop of grain, &c. It is sup- j | posed to have been set on fire. The building ' was insured in the Lancaster County Mutual .

A SHARK CAUGHT IN THE DELAWARE. —Chi Tuesday morning last, as two fishermen were j engaged in their vocation of sturgeon-fishing, j near Ten Mile Pqint, between Tacony and j Bristol, they found, on drawing their net. I that they had captured a shark of the shovel nose species, full eight feet long, and weigh- ! ing about 500 lbs. The monster was t6wed j to Bristol, where it was sold ly the fishermen : for the small sum of one dollar Such visi- ! tors are extremely rare in the Delaware. THF. HOUSE TRADE OK THE \YEST.— -Horses are carried by Railroad from Cincinnati to j New York or Boston in five din s, and for the -urn of 8!3 e;u h. The omnibus proprietors of A '-w York are supplied front Cincinnati. The demand for good horses, says the Cin cinnati Gazette, continues considerably ahead j !of the supply. The Mexican war emptied 1 the pasture fields and staldCb of Ohio, Nidi ana, Kentucky and Illinois, and caused a . rise in stock, of fifty jfer cent. The Cholera at C'lmmberaburg. —The Chain liersburg papers of last week state that up to that time there had been twelve or fourteen deaths in that place, of,cholera, or some other disease equally fatal, for the physicians have i not agreed to call it the real cholera, although it hurries off its victims as speedily . Among 1 those who have died, are George Heck, Mrs. Ely, Geo. Hildebrandt, Mrs. Ncsbit, Mrs. Amelia Smith, and Jas. Harden. The New York Crystal Palace Fair is post poned till the spring of 1853, This project drags very heavily. In all probability the palace will be like the one in the tale of i Aladdin-—a palace in the air without any foundation. The mechanics' fairs are worth all the second-hand crystal palace exhibitions, which must fall ijifinitelv short of the original j display, Jlgaenftry. —Our cold nights and crude ve • getables arc liable to produce this complaint. ! Its attack can readily.be perceived in its in- : cipieitt stage bv a sensation of burning at the ! ! pit of tjie itomach, produced by morbid a id ; duhitss and heavy pains in the abdomen, the result of iufiainmationof the intestines.

ROBBER SHOT IN PEKRV COLNTV. —Three j men attempted to rob the house of David Pf'outz, in Pfoutz's Valley, a few miles east of Miilerstown, a few weeks ago. A young j man. living with Mr. Rfoutz at the time, shot one cf the robbers in the side. The parti then left, taking with tlieui the one who was shot, but in the morning the latter was dis covered not far from the house of Mr. P., where it seems be had lain all night, He wu3 taken to the lionse, apd there died, on Monday. He said his name was Samuel F. Stilt, and also gave the names of his com panions. Robbery.- -On the 2nth of July, u most extensive robbery was committed at Washington, D. C., by a party iff men known as "Representatives,' who appropriated to! themselves the whole of the books received bv i the members of the last four Congresses, One member of Congress said—" ft was a fact well known to the country, that members of Congress sold the which they re ceived at a less sum than their original cost, and if a committee should be appointed to in vestigate this subject, he would stand ready to prove it." This practice of voting them selves books, to be paid for out of the public treasury, is a most scandalous affair: If tljo-j members want books, why dyn't they pay for them out of their own pockets t tt til IK 1 I 11..
