The Liverpool Couriet, in the course of a
. .
Ii
long article on our international relations, gives
a downright honest English interpretation of
the - Central -kmerican-question
"The question is not one of mere technical con
struction, but of 'high national policy. Are
we or are we not to exercise a perpetual sur-
Yeillance 'Over _American doings in America ?
Such we presume to be the concealed object of
our pertinacious protectorate of the Mosquito
shore, and of the Bay Islands. The subject is
one to be gravels deliberated upon by the Brit
' ish people. because it would he far better that
we started at first with a clear conception of
the species of struggle into which we may be
drawn, and of the moral as well as the material
inducements we may have to advance or to
retire." Lord Clarendon may cover up the
designs of Great Britain as shrewdly as• possi
• ble, but the CaurieT puts the question in its
only true light. The "perpetual surveillance"
and "pertinacious - protectorate - wd
permitted by the United States.
Fillmore and the Three Degrees.
It is admitted that Mr. Fillmore has degra
ded his exalted position by stooping for elec
tioneering purposes to connect himself with
an oath-bound, proscriptive and secret order
of bigots. So shocked is one of his own sup
porters by the nature of the three degrees of
Know Nothingism, which he has seen recently
for the first time, that he indulges in the fol
lowing manly reprobation of them. —Exchange.
LFILOIC THE N. Y. MIRROR, K. N.l
. We have just read, for the first time, the.ob
ligations of the three K. N. degrees and do not
hesitate to pronounce them Anti• Republican,
degrading and in some respects. atrocious.-
-espect for any Man would be lessened by
• - Ourr
his having taken These obligations.'
We give the pith of these obligations, which
are imposed by themost solemn oaths. Mem
bers of thelirst degree are compelled :
"To comply,' in all political matters, so far
as this order is concerned, with the will of the
majority, though it may conflict with their per
sonal preference."
In fact the political individuality of mem
bers of the first degree is utterly swallowed up.
The second degree members are sworn
"To support in all political matters, for all
- political offices, members of this order, in pre
ference to other persons."
• The third degree members are sworn to :
"Vote for and . support, for all political offices,
' third or union-degree members of this order iu
preference to all others.
Fillmore a Member.
The statement made at Philadelphia, that
more was not a mem icr o tle mer 7,
lean party. has been flatly contradicted by the
President of the Council No. 171 of Buffalo,
N. Y., who has given the assurance that he
himself was present . when the obligation of
each of the degrees was administered to Mr.
Fillmore. and that - he is a mein berof the Know
Nothing Order in good standing.
However much we may hia'e bet me admired
Mr. Fillmore,. this one act of his has obliterated
all our kind feelings for the man: We had
placed a much higrier-estitriate upon his char
acter, than to believe for one moment that-he
had joined such an unholy alliaive with men,
whose purposes and objects are to deprive a
certain class of our fellow•citizens, native and
adopted, of the rights guaranteed-to them by
the Constitution and laws of our country.-

A LEGISLATIVB FlGlTT.—Slbany, N. Y.,
March 12.—After the adjournment of the As
seinhi this afternoon, Mr. .Deshler, gf &Le
and Mr. Guest, of New York, hart high words
concerning a bill that had been before the
House, when Mr. Guest made use of an ex
pression -considered insulting by Mr. Deshler,
and thereupon Mr. Deshler applied his fists to
the head of Mr. - Guest. - - After recovering from
the staggering effect of Mr. Deshler's blows,
Mr. Guest returned to the attack, when the
combatants clinched, and both being large and
powerful men, they were separated with great
difficulty. The damage that both parties sus
tained proved not to be very serious.
VIE GREAT NEW YORE: DEFAULTER.---The

that city. Upon the receipt of the intelligence
of his death, his son-in-law went to Italy for
the purpose of bringing, home the fatuity, and
they all returned as stated above.

BAD FOIL Egt.s.---The Nantucket Inviirer
says the excessive cold weather has been par
ticularly severe upon the eels on the coast,
which had not sufficient warning to get to their
winter quarters of mud, and consequently
were overtaken by the frost'and frozen stiff as
pokers. hundreds of bushels of them were
driven ashore, and raked up on the beach, and,
after being packed in barrels, shipped for the
.city market.

BAGMENTS OF A WRECK'-CAUSE FOR PAINFUL
A despatch - had - been received by Brown, —
Shipley & Co., agents of the Collins line at
Liverpool, dated Glasgow, Feb. 27, which
says:
."The steamer Edinburgh, froni New York,
passed-February 7th large quantities of brO
ken ice. Saw in it a quantity of broken cab
inet furniture, together with five - ornamental
doors, with w bite or 'lass handles a ladies'
work liox, and other articles, such as are com
mon in the cabins of first &ass steamers."
THE PEACE CONFERENCE
The evident cordiality existing between
France and Austria begins to excite uneasiness
in'England, and a triple league between France,
Austria and Russia is surmised as being not
an improbable incident in the future.
A despatch in the London Morning Adver
tiser says : "It is deemed not improbable that
the result of the moves of the artful' cliploinat
ists of Russia may cause the iminediate-break
ing up of the Conference. A very grave hitch
has aiready occurred—though the fifth point
is the last of all, it was agreed to take it up
first, and, accordingly, at the second meeting
of the Conference, it was submitted for con
sideration. Counts Orloff and Brunow object.
ed and proposed to refer it to a Congress uf all
the Crowned Heads of Europe, pledging them-
se yes in e name o the Czar to Alf e v
siliatever decision that Congress might . reach."
This unexpected Course, it is added, pro
duced consternation at Paris, causing a fall in
French funds. It has also surprised and
alarmed our- own government, and Lord Cow
ley is-expected at London to -take instructions
from the goiernment on the subject. -
The London Times notices rumors to the
same effect as the above, whin caused a fell
in the English funds of t per cent. A tally,
however, occurred at the dose of the market
in consequence of the rumors remaining un
confirmed. •

FRUIT PROSPECTS.—Various accounts are
given respecting the effect of the severe winter
upon fruit - trees. In New Jersey, whence -- a
large supply of peaches is derived, the pros
pects of a crop are still considered good. The
New Brunswicker says :
"The cold weather has not hart the buds
any-yet, except in those orchards situated in
low, wet grounds. There the buds are some
what injured, though not so badly as they are
some years. If the buds are not blasted with
cold winds and wet weather in April and May.
the peaches will probably be very p;entiful."

heard of the contemplated marriage of our friend
Lieut. E. G. FAIINESTOCK; that, whilst we can
not refrain from censuring conduct which we be
