We yesterday ennounced that among the patsengers in the steamship Ohio, which sailed from this port oa Tuesday last, fo- Hevena, was Mr. James G. Bennett, the edito | and proprietor of this paper. He was accompanied | by his wife. Fifteen years ago the experiment of a new paper, European News by the Europa, The arrival of the Cunard steamer Europa, at Halifax, has put us in possessession of some impor- tant intelligence, the details of which, as fore- shadowed by our telegraphic despatches, will be read with deep interest, when the mails arrive. Cotton has receded since the last news ; but the market; lied again before the sailing of the steamer, a d priees advanced. ‘The prosp «t of a war in Europe seems now somewhat probable, though it is well known and understood that any positive feud between European powers at the present moment, would be exceed- ingly disastrous to all governments of the old con- tinent. The incipient step, however, appears to have been taken. Austria has show. the inactive front of war, and Prussia has dischar ed her artil- lery—with what result, time alone ca determine. Still, it is possible that the very knotty and intri- cate German question, under the arbitration of arms, | will be quite another thing from its settlement through the proposed mediation of Russia, France, or Great Britain. These powers, however, are na- turally anxious to terminate an affair that pro- mises to be so full of action and disaster. The blow already struck may not be repeated, or it may lead to still more extensive hostilities, out of which the entire peace of Europe, if not the permanency of some of its governments, may be seriously threat- ened. The other items of intelligence are not without | interest. Representations are made that the anta- gonism to the Pope’s movements in England, is gradually subsiding, and that the whole thing is looked upon now as a bug-bear, and unworthy of | the pious indignation that has been expended upon it. The mails, however, will give us more fuil particulars upon which to base opinions of the im- Special Episcopal Our readers will find in our columms to-day, @ Teport of the first day’s proceedings of the Spécial Episcopal Convention, which{has been called by the Standing Committee of this diocess, for the purpose of electing an assistant bishop to pertorm Episco- pal functions during the suspension of Bishop On- derdonk. It will be seen that no sooner had the Rev. Dr. Wainwright delivered an eloquent and affecting sermon, than the delegates—lay and cleri- cal—got into a squabble concerning the eligibility of members to occupy seats in the convention. It appears that a resolution was proposed, referring the list of clergymen to a committee to whether any of them are not eligible to seats in the convention, and whether the names of any clergy- men entitled to seats had been omitted; and also to report upon the contested seats of lay delegates, and upon the right to seats in the convention of all persons claiming them as lay delegates, whose names were not called by the secretary. But one construction can be put on this move- ment, and that is, that, in the opinion of the minority, or low church party, the majority, or high church party, have endeavored to pack the convention with their friends, lay and clerical, for the purpose of carrying their point, and electing their candidate for the assistant bishoprick, created by the Council of Bishops. After considerable discussion, and an exhibition of ill feeling and bad temper entirely out of character with the place, and the important business which is before the convention, the resolutions were temporarily with- | drawn, to be renewed at another time. From the temper and feeling already exhibited, there is every probability that the election of an assistant bishop on this occasion, will not be efiected without creating more trouble in the Episcopal mediate future in Europe, and to these we will ad- dress ourselves at the earliest moment. Jn the meantime, we commend the commercial aud poli- tical news by this arrival as worthy of attention, | and as suggestive of many surmises and conjec- tures.

Last, but not least, we have had a Union meeting at Nashville, oa the | very heels of the late Southern Rights Convention, in epen, bold, and fearless denunciation of its sup- | posed disunion projects. These Union meetings—these speeches—these letters, and these resolutions, ia behalf of the Union, are all very well, as faras they go. They do something in reviving that love and devo- tion to the Union which, at one time, was the uuivergal sentiment—but not enough.

As it is, angels d good men have wept over the melancholy poi which it has presented. Notwithstanding all the outward piety which characterizes the Protestant Episcopal church, there is a great deal of wire-pulling coa- nected with its management, and with the election and appointment of clergymen, as- sistant bishopz, &c. The conveation which is now in session, is composed of two orders, viz: clerical delegates, and lay delegates—the one re- presenting the interest and views of the clergy, and In the this into his own hands, openly and above board. Tn the Protestant Epixeopal church, his Holiness the Pope of that Church—in other words, * The Corporation ot Trinity” —monopolizesit.

Earning her triumphs sgsinst the foulest prejudices whioh ignorance can engender, or malice suggest, she proclaims herself as the great queen of lyric song, and draws from every audience an amount of enthusiasm such as has never bean known in this metropolis. Unapproached as she is in the ex- tent, quality, and power of her voice, she uses it with such consummate sill that she is entitled to the high- est rank as s vocalist, while in her personation of cha- racter, she is without arival. The finale was sung last night by Parodi, with a power and pathos which no ee can desoribe. It was an appropriate crowning neamead 9 efforts of the first two acts. Though she called three or four times, such was the aotene of the audience, that, at the fall of the cur- tain, she was again summoned twice to receive such yociferous acclamations as never before were heard in ~~ ta House, Many of the audience started to leet, and many minutes elapsed before the extra- iy Poene of ¢uthuriarm subsided Patti, Lorini, and Beneventano eang with much energy and skill, and were very deservedly applaude: Indeed. the opera was admirably performed.

No matter what shape the present convention may aesume, it is certain and pre-arranged that the candidate put forward and supported by Tri- nity church, will be elected.
