“NEWS FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL STEAMSHIP FRAWNELIN, IMPORTANT FROM GERMANY. “The Reported Loss of the American Sloop of War Yorktown. THE CATHOLIC MOVEMENT IN ENGLAND, THE MAREBTS. &e., &e., Ko. The United States mail steamship Franklin, J. A. “Wotton, commander, arrived yesterday morning, about eight o’clock, bringing later intelligence from the Continent, and the London Times of the 2d instant. ‘The Franklin experienced a succession of heavy westerly gales during the passage. On the 2d No- vember, off Spithead, she passed the packet ship Devonshire, from New York, for Liverpool. Among the passengers in the Franklin we notice Gen’l Welch, Mad’lle Caroline, and Mons. Lois- sett, with a fine troupe of equestrians, from Fran- coni’s. Tie General has with him eight highly trained horses. ‘The Queen Mab, arrived at Liverpoo! on ist of October, reports that the U. 8. sloop of war York- town was lost, on the north part of St Jago, Cape de Verde Islands, on the 25th of September—crew waved. The information was derived from the royal yaeht schooner Ariel, from St. Jago, which was spokea on the 2d of October, ia latitade 14, longitude 27. The Franklin does not bring a large number of paseengers. Thisis accounted for by the fact of her first (or trial) voyage,and because the European public do not like to venture upon crossing the mighty Atlantic in any steamer whoze reputation has not been fully established, or until the name ofthe veezel has been somewhat familiarized to them by ‘means of notices of successful voyages, ia the public journals of America and England. We feel assured that this will soon be the case with the Franklin. We are informed tnat a vast nunber of applications for second class berths were made tothe agents in England and France, and that at least one hundred might have been secured at a Tate of about $100 each.. The fare, however, for first clase, exclusively fixed at thirty-two guineas, or £33 12 sterling, seemed to prohibit a large traflic, now that there are so many steamships for voyagers to choose from. We are fully of opiaion that if the manzgers of the Havre line were to provide acco:nmodation in their ships for one hua- dred tespectable second class passengers, at £20 each, such berths would be fullevery voyage. This fact is peculiarly impressed upon us by our private correspondence, and we believe that the absolute necessity for such an arrangement will eventually be seen and recognized. There is but a very small freight by the Frank- ling but this arises from the autumn shipping season at Havre having closed, and the winter trade not having commenced. There is, besides, considers- ble competition. In December, we uaderstand that the Franklin will have an immense freight from Havre. To celebrate the arrival of the Franklia at Havre, the principal merchants of that seaport gave a grand banquet, at Frascati’s Hotel, to the | cemmander and officers of that steamer. The entertaiament was of the most recherche cheracter. The walla of the saloon were decorated with the French and American flags. On the 29th Captain Wotton returned the compliment. We give a fall account in another column. Our Berlin correspondence is of the 20th ult. ‘The proposition of Prussia for » free conference of the German States on the Devish and-Hessian questions had been rejected at Warsaw. In coneeqnence of the determination of Russia and Austria to enforce the decision of the Assem- bly of the Bund as to the occupation of Hesse, Prussia bad increawed the extent of her military preparations. It had been resolvedto make seven army corps, or 149,000 men, mobile. It was proda- ble the Landwehr of the first cluss would also be called ont, but no final decision on this point had been come to. Anxiety as to the preservation of peace had deepened, but the fuads were bat little affected by the warlike rumors. The Staathalterechaft had accepted the proposi- tion of Prussia to suspend hostiliiies with Den- mark, only on certain conditions. An important notice was issued by the Britich Postmaster General, the dey before the Fraaklia sailed. It is to the effect that, in future, the Ameri- can contract mail steamers are to convey mails to New York intended for Canada, New Bronswick, Nova Seotia and Prince Edward’s Island, which are to be torwarded hence to their several desti- | nations. This last notice, coupled with a previous one, notifying that all leters in the British post office (unless apecially addressed by any particular vessel) will be forwerded by the fret packet from Southampton or Liverpool, whether British or American, places the United States lines of mail steamers upon a footing of peifect equality withthe Cunard line, in reapect to the conveyance of nails. The German eorew steamship Helena Slonaaw Capt. Pauleen, sailed from Southampton, for New York, on the lst November, with « full cargo, and abont 155 passengers, forty of whom embarked at Southampton, the remainder having been takea on board at Hamburg, the port of departure. We understand that the [elena Sloman ia regularly to toveh at Southampten on her outward vo, ages from Hamburg, and that the prcprieiors have de- cided to build, in England, three more serew pros pellete, of larger size and greater power than the Helena Sloman, with which to keep up a semi- monthly steam communication betweea Lamb arg and. New York, via Southampica. These vessels, in the wey of German passengers and merchandise, will prove to be formidable competitors to the Bremen line of steamships. The Sloman left Hambarg on the 27th, and wae only sixty hours steaming to Seuthampton. She remained three days at the latter port, to take in coals and pax a 1 | engers. Our Southampton correspondence mentions that the West India Mail Company haa concluded aa rrangement, by whieh, in conjunction with the Jnited States mail steamers running from Panama sto Ban Franesseo, the British steamers will deliver at Southampton gold dust and bullion, from Sin Franciseo, at one uniform rate of freight from California.

They siept on board of the Growler on the night of their arrival, and on the following day started in a special steamer for Cairo. At Cairo the Prince hed an audience of the Viceroy, Abbas Pasha, by whom he was treated very cour- teously, and proceeded to Suez to embark ou board of the steamer Akhbar, which conveys the Londoa mail, of the 7th October, to Bombay. The Grow- ler leaves to-day for Greece. Last week was the period ef the great Moham- meden festival ef Cour! Bayram, duriig which there was a general holiday.

Abbas Pasha, having leernt that some oriental alabaster was required to make a moanment in Rome, gave orders that six blocks of the finest ala- baster in the country, and of the largest dimensioas, be sent down to Alexandria for shipment to Rome, as a present to the Pope, Ten young Arabs and Turks are to be seat to Paris to be educated in mediciue, at the expease of the Egyptian government. Kamil Pasha, who had left Egypt for Coastanti- nople some time ago, owing to 4 misunderstanding with the Vicerey, 1s now making a compliint to the Sublime Porte against Abbas Pasha, for haviag caused him to divorce his wife. He was maried in 1845 to Mehemet Ali’s second daughter, Zainab Khanum, who is his junior by about 40 years, and always entertained an aversion to him, Mehemoet Ali having had to use his autkority to mike her marry him. Kamil Pasha claims his wife back on the ground that the Viceroy here has no power to make him divorce her, forgetting that, on the con- dition of never returning to Egypt, he had aceept- ed from Abbas Pasha a very coasiderable sam of money, 28 compensation for his wife aad ail the landed property he held in the country.

The English vimters to Cash. mere are now very numerous, and are all treated by Gholab Singh and his officials with the most sedulous attention possible, but their accounts of his government of the province are untavorabie to the lest degree.

THE BISHOP | with OF LONDON “ My Lonn—We approach your Jordshi, sentiments of sincere respect and aflectioa, eras eard, with indigestion aad concern, of the recent aggression of the Bishop of Rome in appointiag, by an assumed authority, a Cardinal Archhishop of Wesiminsicr, and in assigning, under a Papal ball, | Cemain districts of this country to the. spiricual ju- riadiction of clergy entitled ‘ Bishops of tae Romish | Church,’ we feel it our duty to declare our resolu. | tion, with God’s help and blessing, to co-operate, | as faras we are able, in guarding the rights and | poinew ofour native church from the assaults of | reign and usurped dominion. They calito mind | the fact that the faith of Christ, in its parity of doc- trine and worship, had beea planted and establish- ed inthe realm of Britain some centuries before | the mission fromthe Roman See, in the time of | Pope Gregory, had set foot upon our shores. We now, when the church of Kome had, by its un- ecriptural decrees and idolatrous prac tices, cor- rupted the primitive faith, with what joy the call to the reformation was received in this land, aad at how great price our reiigious freedom was vinti- cated and recovered by our Protestant forefathers ; and we believe and trust that there existsin the | laity as weil as the clergy of our communion | such a hearty desire for the maiateaance of the Christiana, trath in all its integrity end purity, as effectuaily to resist this novel And presumptuous movement, which appears to us tobe nothing lessthan an affront to the Queen's Majesiy and the lawful prelates, clergy, and peo- | ple of this Provestant kingdom, and a bold attempt | to undermine, and eventually destroy, our coasti- tution in Church and State. That your lordship | will be pleaved, under the blessing and guidance | of the head of the charch, to offer your powerful aid and counsel inthe present conjaacture. We cannot conclude thie memorial without requesting to offer to your lordship oar best ead warmest | thanksfor the dignified aad uncompromising Chri: _ tien tone of your reply to our pri ster. And we ever pray, &c.” | He would observe, in order to carry ont his former | statements, that the Bishop of Rome had usarped the prerogative of our Sovereign ia appointing | spiritual digaitaries in this land. {t was equally a | | feet, that he had iavaded the jaristiction of the | | Primate of all England, and other prelates. They | had seen the pastoral letter of the Cardinal Arch- bishop of Westminster, and observed the expres- sion “we govern,” asif he had received his jaris- diction from the Primate of England. He though | that, by that act, the law of Eagliud was iavaded. By it had been done, in detimnes of the laws of | | Englaad, that which ne Povish Sovereiga ia the world would submit to. [a the same letter was an | | attack upon the religion of their country, which | | was epoken of as bemg in total darkaess for three centuries, while we hod the glorious light of the | Feformation, and the couatry had become greater | and more glorious, and more prosperous, thin any | | empire that ever existed, of which they had read, | in the whole history of the world.

After this he would meative a fact showing the value of the oath administered to preseribed, the goverament of the country was cast out by a combination of Romain Catholic mem- bers of Parliament, on a question relating to the confiscation of the whole of the property of the chureh of freland, aad afterwards upon another measure, (Lord Stanley’s,) by which ten of the bishoprics were extinguished. Oae-tourth of the whole etharogal body was extinguished. As totus act by whi the present agitation was orought forward in this country, he rejoiced at it. It tad brought matters to a head, aud there coald be no possible disunion or discrepancy of opinion respect. ing the recent partition of this reali. It showed that it was impossible to rely upoa the word of Rome (loud cheers)—tat they could make no compact with Rome (renewed cheers) It showed thal, while dealing with us as a uation, they had ‘garded us as in a state of heathen barbarian, abandoned by the Gogpel. As far as they (the clergy present) were personally coacerned, their ordination letters would not de worth a straw. Rome regarded them as out of the pale of Christi- anity any further than claiming the right to exereise its poweroyerus. Englishmen were regirded ag rebellious subjects of Rome, and of course as persons upon whom the whole power of Rome should be exerted. Butif the question were to be considered in any degree as serious, he would indeed confess that it must only be regarded as an act of Divine power for the purpose of awakening the Protestant Church of England to its duties, interests, end necessities. Had this measure not been adopted, the Church of Rome might have gone on seducing them, and for years eacroaching upon the Church of p Amp ut GOW War was declared, and that in a manner as ridiculous and offensive as possible, from the state of things in which it was declared. Was it by the Pope, the master of the world—a poteniate distin- guished by his ability and energy, whoa kings held ‘his stirrup and led his horse, as it was formerly! No, it was a feeble man—a beggir upon the face of the earth—(heer)—a man living upon the alms of a degraded nution—the lowest sf all sovereigns, endeavoring to subjugate the most powerful of all empires. (Hear, hear.) It would be quite enough for them to rise as one man in judignation, which | Was the proper feeling, rather than condescend to enter into argument with such a being. Ic was a foul shame that the Popes, that worshtpper of idola — (great epplanse)—that miserable dependant upoa the power aud alms of a beggarly mation—that the Pope, a man of nothing, should come and invade these realms gy his menial—for all men in the Popish service were,meniils—ead should say that England had returned to its ecclesiastical order, from which it had hitherto beea wandering in dark- ness. This came from a mia who was hiuself de- pendant upon the sound of the Freneh deum, whose wer was based upon the presence of fureizaers ia ome. Was it thus that the great chureh aad people of England, ennobled by so maay illustrious recollections; powerful by 1s hold upon the aflze- tions of the songs by its management, conduct, and oye 3 the yeutensss of is admunstration, and the dignity of its oflicea—( at this great church which was to be tim for the altar of the Pope: owa went of caution?

He had much respret for the bishop. bat he advised them to go straightforward to the Queen, as the body of the clergy of London, and et once present their memorie! to her majesty. Iie would take the liberty of suggesting, that the memortal ne had read, elthough it might not be adopted at that meet- ing, might be adopted at some future one, ua it was, in his opinion, the just course for them to adopt, under the presen! emergency. (Cheers ) ‘The Rev. R. H. Ruppock said, that it was the duty of the clergy ef the city of London to be as vniied ia the defence of their privileges as their bre:hren of Westminster. Uf the Roa Bishop had been bold enough to parcel out Southwark aad Westminster, why should he not parcel out Lon- don ood Finsbury? He did not agree witn the Rey. Dr. rely upon one poiat, for he would express his wish and desire to opproach the Bishop; alihough, what his advice upon the matter would be it was not difficult to antivipate. The attack and insult wiich hed been offered to them seemed to hira to be ihe result of a perieet infatuation. The Bishop of London himseit observed, in his address to the clergy of Westminster, that it was not merely a mistake, but absolutely a false sep It seenred like an pofatwation in a person who had been hurl- ed from his throne by his owa subjects (hear), and that throne, to tura round and parcel out the do- | minions of a Protestant Sovereiga—the dominivas | | ofthe greatest Protestant power ia Europe. The Rev. Dr. Wortnineron sait the add laid before them by Dr. Croly was worthy ture consideration—it would be the basis of a sub- sequent memorial; but oa the present occasion them not exhibit the faintest appearance of Tence of sentiment, as it would cause thei mies to believe thatthe English Church was not cepeble of union or co-operation.

They must see that these measures were aimed et the throne, which it was their daty, as loyal subjects a» well as clergymen, to eadeavor by all meansio keep eecure ant safe, waile ita an- fagonists tottered to their fall. On these grouads he heartily concurred 10 the subject of the memo- rial, and he did most thoroughly believe that Eog- Jond would still maintain her position, not as the creature of a foreiga domigion, but in that glorious situation in which Providence had placed her, as signing to her the guardianship of echristiaaity | Sitonget the nations of the earth. (Cheers ) | The Rev. Dr. Grory ssid that he should be very | unwilling to see anything like a d. on or dis- | union in « meeting that des. iow, where all were united in ene commen feeling. He thought the present address premature, as the Bishop of Lendon was to hold his visitation in two days, and to memorialize him just now would look some- what like dictation. Lhe Buwhep would give them his advice unesked. They knew what his opi- nions were already, and he (Dr. Croly,) feit soms enxiety in thinking that the address was not ad- dressed to the proper quarter. As to the opinions fund sentiments contained in that address, taere could be no diflerence of opinioa; out that address ought to have been to the highest power in the realm. There had aiready been na address to the | Bishop, and that was quite sufficient anticipa- ton, 4s hi inions were already declared. In re- | ference to the subject before them, he would read one or two documeats vearing pon it—the oae ‘wae the reugh drait of an address to her majesty, which he had that morning prepared; the other re- ferred to the oaths taken by the sovereiga oa coro notion. The Rev. gerteman then read the torm F ncdrees which he proposed, aud proceeded :— he Pope bad usurped the supremacy cf Engiand,, Scouiand, aed Ireland, in the middle of the 16:h | ceatury. That supremacy was abolished in the 17h century by the let of William and Mary. ‘Aner abjuring the dvctriae that excommu- | nwated princes might be deposed and tur. dered, which doctriae he justly pronounced | damnable, that oath proceeded to say:—"'l do de- clare that no fureiga prince, power, of poteatate, hath or oughtto bave any junsdiction, power, pre- eminence, or authority, eectesiusties! or vivil. within thiatealm., So help me God.” By the act Slat of George L., a Papist might hold office by tuking ) | the abjuring oath with relereace to the civil | | temporal office ofthe Pope. The by heed of th urch was given tothe King in 4, and cortirmed i 1638, by the 26chof Kiag Heary VILL The oath was as folio ve:—“* I do swear that 1 will defend tothe utmost of my power the settie- ment of prepare within thie realm as established by law, and [ do hereby disclaia, disown, aad solemaly abjure any iatection to subvert the pre- | pent church establishiaent as established by law | within these realms, avd ( do solemaly swear that | L never will exerciee any privilege to wh Tam | or may become entitled, to disturb or wetken the | Protestant religion or Protestant gov rarment ia the | Unied Kingdom.” Atthe ceremony of the corona | tion, the mooarch, after having the two previous questions of governing secording to the law, aod | caueing the law, and jusiice in merey, to be exe- | cuted in all jadgmeats, was y the Areh- | biehop the following question, which was of much | greater levgth than any of the n—* Will on, to the utmoat of your power, maintain the aoa of God, the true profession of the (hospel a to this memorial, he hoped that it would give wara- ing to those formerly of the English Church who had lapsed to Rome, and those who were said to be in @ state of transition. turn to one thing or the other—either to the Church of Kome or to the Church of Eaglead.

In Russia the ministers are whotly depen- dent on the will of the emperor aad in Prussia, though this dependence i3 somewhat disguised, yet in reality the present miaisters Can pursue no polley the King does not sanction.

In fact, it is necessary to their enjoyment that everything else should be for- gotten, and that the mind shouid wholly surrender uselfto the iasion ef the hour. It requires no emall amount of faith, or of something that stands in the stead of feith, to look with common patience on tWo or three hundred property knights, brigands, or other sort of ermed men, marching and couater- | marching up end dowa wordea inciiaes, tighting | round Canvass ramparts, or forming a serried mass | from the foothghts to the extreme rear of the stage. | A single glance at the rodden cheeks and un- wieldly peunches of the men who are bearing arms fora chilling the mghi is enough to stip the scene of its unsel, and expose the disgusting reality. Such, however, is the force of habit, that the finest tastes and the loftiest intellects of the pution are positively entranced with the dreary bumbug. The relish or the apparatus of waris equally strong and equally conventional.

The Grand De, ship (Prom Gallignani’s Mi asenger. Oct. 30.) A grand dijewner was given yesterday oy Capt. J. A. Wotton and Mr. Iselin, the agent for line of government mail steamers between Ame= rica and France, on board the splendid new ship, the Franklin, whose arnval from the States at Havre we mentioned a few days ego. Upwi 300 invitations were issued for the occasion; about 240 of ne invited were present. The Pre- sident, and severe! other important perso: I» were compelled to decline, owing to the pressure of public business, and from other causes, For the mmodation of the Parisian “detatehment”® of visiters, a special train of first-class carriages was, in the mest liberal manner, placed at the ser- vice of the guests, free of charge, by which means the journey to ond fro was accomplished in the mort agreeable aud repid mauner. The weather, whieh had been very bad on Sunday and Mon- day, Was very fine yesterday. The train from Paris started “at alittle before ten; it consisted of Line carriages and two vans, and carried about 120 passengers, ineinding Mr. Rives, the American Minister; M un Fancher, Vice President of the Netional Asse y; M. Thayer, Director Genera of the Post Office; M. de Lesseps, of the Foreign Office; M. Ch. Laflite, aud several of the diree= tors of the compeny. The engine was driven by M. Lapeyriere, chef de Vexplotiotion, who person- olly supe rintended the whole of (he arrangements; end efter pleasant and rapid journey of exacdy three hours and fifty-seven miautes, including stoppages, the trein errived at its destination. A large number of carriages were in waiting at Havre, to convey the company on board the Fravklin, whieh wes lying in the Bassin de Tloride, at the south side of the town, the only one whose dock gates are large enough for the entrence of lorge ships like the Fran&lin, On aniving on Dard, the visiters were recei by Captain Wotton and bis officers, and after the exchunye of the usual eivilities, conducted by them over the “entive length and breadth” of the ship, which must certainty be pronounced the most maguificent ef ber claes that was ever seen in a French port. From the great crowd that thronged the wharf, it was pretty evident that her appear- ance created as much ioterest and astonishment amongst the townspeople of Havre, as amongst the Perisiens, many of whem were particularly siruck with her great length and size, the massive architecture (it we may use the term) of the en giner, and the comfortable and splendid accommo- dation of the cabins, saloons, vc. The Franklin is the first of anew line of government mail steam- ers that will benceforward run berween New York end Havre, making a detour each way by Cowes, (to lend and receive the Epglich mails), the total Gistence of the route being 3 200 miles, which was accomplished by the Frenklin, om this her first trip, under 13 days, including a considerable time lost by the stoppege of her engines, and remedymg a slight accident that happened to her mechinery, and which reduced the actual steaming time to eleven days ond eight hours. She was builtin New York,and, when completed, inspected by he government officials, eo that, im cute of wer, they can purchase her for that pur- pose, Atwresent her owners have e contract with the Ameriemi government for eight years, to carry the mais horween [rence and the States.
