SHAH'S'
- Ta.ou Echopk The Arabia arrived at Mali- I
fii with news from Europe to the 22il Novem
ber. Political affairs remain quiet, all rumors
as to the instability of the Anglo-French Alli
ance having disappeared ; consequently the
funds had gono up as much as one per cent.
Two ships bad arrived at Liverpool with spe
cie amounting to about $0,500,000. The Eiit
ishGovcrnment is generously aiding the Trans
atlantic Telegraph enterprise, having ordered
a steamer to surrey the Irish coast and sound
across the ocean ; also guaranteeing iutcrest
at four per cent per 'snnuni on the capital re
quired to make and lay the cables. The con
tractors have agroed to finish and ship the ca
bles hy" the 31st of May next. France has con
eluded a commercial treaty with the Sandwich
Islands. The expected arrangement between
the Spanish Bourbons had failed. Its object
was the abdication of the Queen, and the mar
riage of her daughter to Don Juan, the eldest
on of the Infanta. A llepublican outbreak
occurred at Mala ga on the 18th, but was spee
dily suppressed by killing five of the insur
gents. It was said not to bo a political move
ment, but intended for smuggling purposes.
Several persons had been arrested and execu
ted. The elections in Lisbon had been unfa
vorable to the Government. Nothing new a
bout the Neapolitan question, except that the
Governor of Palermo had ordered a strict sur
veilanco upon French and English commer
cial vessels. Denmark ha3 been notified that
the Sound Dues question will be brought be
fore tho Germanic Diet on the 10th December.
Should Denmark fail to bo represented, it is
aid that England has agreed to pay Denmark
a cupjtal sum equal to a revenue of 4.3,000
per annum. The British now pay in tolls about
70,000 a year. There is nothing of impor
tance jfrom other parts, except that tho at
tempt to eflect with Lord lledcliile a settle
ment of tho disputes between England and
Persia had failed.
Mekting op Cosub.es3. The second session
of the 34th Congress commenced at Washing
ton on the 1st inst. In the Senate there were
15 absentees. In the House about 2-)0 mem
bers were present. The new members from
Vermont, Virginia and Illinois appeared, and
were qualified. The credentials of Whitfield,
as delegate from Kansas', were presented by
Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, who moved that ho
be sworn. Mr. Grow, of Pa., ol jected. A
spirited debate ensued between Messrs. Grow
and Phelps, on the merits of the question, af
ter which the motion to swear in Mr. Whitfield
aras rejected ayes 'J, noes 101. Mr. Grow
t'i.c moved to re-consider the vote, and to lay
that motion on the table. The opponents
thereof endeavored to defeat this action by
inotious for a call of the House, to adjourn,
&c. They had evidently been caught in their
own Tict. Nevertheless, time was consumed
until 7 o'clock, when the House, by one ma
jority, adjourned. On Tuesday, the I'resi
duct'a message was sent in. Hale, Trumbull,
Wilson, ami others, handled it severely. On
Wednesday, Thursday aud Friday, the consid
eration of the admission of Whitfield, tho
friends of Whitfield making various motions
with a view to postpone, action on the case.
In the Senate, the printing of extra numbers
of the President's message being under con
federation, the discussion run on the slavery
question. The death of Mr. Clayton was an
Bounced to the Senate ou the 3d.
Tag Slave Ta.iE. The Juurnul of Com-
intret states, on the authority of the United
States Deputy Marshals, that the fitting out of
vessels for tho slave trade, from New York ci
ty, was never prosecute I with greater energy
thin at present. The ocasional interposition
of tl:a lgal authorities exercise no apparent
hifii'.erico for its suppression. It is seldom
that on or moro vessels cannot be designated
ct tio wharvas, respecting which there is evi
iiencs that she cither is or has been concerned
In tiie trrtff.c ; and within the last nine months
thre aue;red tdave c$;c3 of tho character re
ferred to havo been before the Courts, result
ing, in one instance, in confiscation. It also
states that tbo trade could be broken up by so
amending the law relating to the shipment of
crews, that vessel engaged in the African
trade shall lake none but Americans. The
Bcain who engage in theso vessels are prin
cipally Portuguese, and other foreigners, who
arc destitute of principle on the subject.
Gov. AbAiis, of South Carolina, gravely ur--ges,
In his receiit message to the Legislature,
a dissolution of the Union and the revival of
the infamous African slave trade. When such
men as Gov. Adams, in an official message,
urge tho adoption of such measures, it is high
time that proper rebuke should be adminis
tered, and the Christian world assured of our
fidelity to t-o car.se of constitutional liberty.
It is said that the Locofoco leaders fear that
th" announcement of tho South Carolina Go
, rernor may inure to the injury of their party,
nd some are therefore denouncing it.
It Is aa'd that Buchanan's cabinet will be
substantially as follows :
Secretary of State Lewis Cass, of Michigan.

HOLLO WAY'S PILLS.
WHY ARE WE SICK ? :
IT has been tbe lot of the human race to b we'5
ed down by disease and suffering. HOLLO
WAY'S PILLS are specially adapted to the relief
of the WEAK, the NERVOUS, the DELICATE
and the INFIRM, of all climes, ages, sexes, and
constitutions. Professor Holloway personally ra-
rerintends the manufacture of his medicines intho
nited States, and offers them to a free and enlight
ened people, as tbe best remedy the world evar
saw for the removal of disease.
THESE PILLS PURIFY THE BLOOD".
Theso famous Pills are expressly combined to op
erate on the stomach, the liver, the kidneys, tha
lungs, tho skin, and the bo.wcls, correcting any do
raiigement in their functions, purifying the blood,
the very fountain of life, and thus curing diseaw
in all its forms.
DISPEPSIA AND LIVER COMPLAINTS.
Nearly half the human race have taken thes
Pills, ft has been proved in all part of the world,
that nothing has been found equal to them in cases
of disorders of the liver, dyspepsia, and stomach
complaints generally. They soon give a healthy
tone to these organs, however much deranged, and
when all other means have failed.
GENERAL DEBILITY. ILL HEALTH
Many of themost despotic Governments have o
pened their Custom Houses to the introduction of
these Pills, that they may become the medicine of
the masses. Learned Colleges admit that this
medicine is the best remedy ever known for perf
sons of delicate health, or where the system hat
been impaired, as its invigorating properties never
fjil to afford relief.
FEMALE COM PLAINTS.
No female, young or old. should be without thi'
celebrated medicine. It corrects and regulates th
monthly courses at all periods, acting in many ca
ses like a charm. It is also the best and safest
medicine that can be given toChildren of all ages,
and for any complaiut; consequently no family
should be w ithout it.

trorld jor the fo'lowing Diseases:
Asthma Diarrhoea Second arySymptoms
