By the arrival of the Cunard steamship Niagara at Halifax, we are enabled to present our readers with one week's later advices from all parts of Bu- rope. To commercial classes this news is of con- siderable importancs. The British premier, Lord Derby, lately declared that the object of calling a sestion of Parliament, prior to Christmas, was for | the express purpose of forever putting to resi the | controversy relative to protection. He asserted | that the people, at the recent” clection, plain!y indi- cated their determination to stick to the pre gent free trade policy, and that it would be uscless for thore in power to attempt te go ad- | versely to tho popular will. Thorosult of the move- | ment was the passage, by the Howse of Commons, | of a resolution fully confirming the system of free | trade by the overwhelming vote of 468 against 53. | The Earl of Malmerbury recently stated, inthe Heuse | of Lords, that the moet friendly fecling existed bo- | tween the British and Awrican governments with regard to the fisheries, a»: that, with the exception of the late Secretary Webster's Franklin letter, everything tended to a +. tisfactory settlomont. As was anticipated, I cuis Napoleon has been de clared Emperor of Frerce by a most overwhelming | majority. The vote in the army and nary, and in | the eighty-threo departments heard from, footed u seven millions two hundred thousand yeas, to only two hundred and 6fty thousand nays—being a clear | majority of nearly eeven millions. Louis was, | doubtless, crowned on the 2d instant—the anziver- sary of his celebrated coup d'état, and also of the crowning of his uncle, Napoleon I. Afverhis installa- tion, it is reported that he intended to issue s manifesto to foreign nations, which will be of a pacific charac- ter. Well, Loviscan go »-head os fast a3 he pleases, provided ho keeps on his own side of the water; but the syn ptoms at present are, that either ho or his countr}men are fanning a breeze over oa this side that may eventually become a tornado From Austria, we learn that Chevalior Hulsemann, | now that Secretary Webster is no more, will retura to Washington.

The telographic despatch relative Mexico should warn our government to boware of forviga | encroachments in that quarter. It is stated that Count Boulbon, having defeated the Moxican forces under Gen. Blanco, has decl that the State of Bonora is independent and anne to France.

It would not be sur- prising if the clave trade controversy should yot | lead to a flaroup between Engiand aod Spain. Cuba is in the last stage of consumption, and like sharks following in the wake of a postilential chip nt ven, the war veevele of Groat Britain are swarm- ing around the beautiful island, ready to scive upon their share of the spoils. The English crown, like raven, is always represonted at a wake Another spirited debate came of in the House of Representatives, on the whig proposition to refer that part of u tariff to a eelect committee.

Mr. Gorman, Indiana democrat, gave notice of his intention to introduce a bill empowering the Proeident to confor the rank of Licutenant General. This was mot, we are as tonished to learn, with cries of objection, amid which the House adjourned till Monday. The Se- nate was not in session, having adjourned from Thursday till Monday. Up to this time no actual business has been transacted in either Mouse, and thus cloees the first week’s labors of the second session of the Thirty-second Congress. Are the people satisfied? We give the report of the Secretary of the Inte- rior in this morniog’s paper. It ia of very little importance. After the publication of the other documents, it is, as Toots says, “ of no conse- quence.” Tho Census, the Land Office, the Indian, and the Pension reports, embraced all the facts. We have now to hear from the Secretary of the Treasury, and then the history of the nation for the pact year will be complete, The telegraph furnishes some additional aud very interesting intelligence from California. Thecon- | flagration at Sacramento is said to have destroyed property tothe value of ten millions of dollars Forty blocks of buildings were consumed, and nine- tenths of the inhabitants were loft without roofs to shelter them. As evidence of their indomitable enterprise and perseverance, we observe tha’ no less | than three hundred and fifty new houses had been | erected on tho rains within tho space of nine days. The State election had resulted in the cdoive of six democrats aud seven whigs to the Senate, and forty-one demoerats and niueteen whigs to the As- sembly from, but whichever way they might go they could méjority on joiat ballot. The San Francisco mar- kets were reported to be very ursetiled. We shall probably havo full details of the news by tho Ili- | | noie, to-day or to morrow. The steamship City of Pittsburg, destroyed by fire at Valparaiso, was insured for about $350,000, about $50,000 of which was in London, and tho re- | mainder was divided betwoen Wall strect, Philadel- phia and Boston. Bhe had no cargo of consequence beyond her coal. She was owned by the Philadel- phia ard Liverpool Steamship Company. At last accounts the North Carolina Legislature had not succeeded in electing a United States Sena- tor. Notice has been given in the New Hampehire Legisiature of a bill granting licenses to sell wines und spirituous liquors in certain cases Another colored man, named Hiram Brown, has | been arrested at Syracuse, on a charge of having | astisted in the rescue of the fugitive slave Jerry. | Some of the fire rowdies in Philadelphia, yester- | day morning, destroyed tho l'airmount Hose carriage and seven hundred feet of hose. When will the real estate owners of Philadelphia and Baltimore be im- | hued with liberality enough to pay for a sufficient | number of vigilant policemen to protect life and property? Vor years these cities hare Leon infested with gangs of vicious persons, who eommit almost every description of crime with perfect impunity. Threo men were instantly killed, and reveral others were seriously injured, by a collision, yes- terday, betweeen two trains on the Rochester and fyracuse Railroad. An abscendiag tlave from Richmond, Virginia, was thoother day foundon board the steamer Roan oke, at Norfolk, and sont back to his master. Between sixteen and twenty thousand buchels of walt were last evening destroyed by the partial burning of an establishment in Albany. | entire lors, itis supposed, will reach fifteen thou- | cand collars. | John Rosenthal has been sentenced to six months mprisopmont and a fine of $250, for defrauding the custom house at Baltimore.

Self-satisied appreciations of some modest messure of prosperity—vaunting encomi- vms on very equivocal rymptoms of progress—delu sive assurances of plenty in the midst of famine—of refinement in the heart of barbarism— of militury ar- der whero all around was despoudency—abound in the history of every nation, as a creduloas people, or selfish ruler, conspired to invent or exaggerate tokens of general welfare. Woe can take up no his- torical work of any note which does not contain an unmeaning panegyric on the greatness of the nation whore story it tells, at some period of its carer ; but, while sounding epithots and Johnsonian exple- tives are profusely strewn over the page, we aro sel- dom indulged with that tangible index of pros- perity, a reliable table of figures. In tracing the cauee of this peculiarity, we must of course make due allowance for the density of our ancestors, who, poor peeple, had no suspicion of the practisal value of the science of statistics; but, at the same time, it would be unjust to forget that fow nations have witnessed an ago when their internal condition would bear the rigorous test of the statist. Not many epochs can be indicated in the history of Rome, or Fravee, or Spain, or Italy, or Great Bri tain, when an impartial exposé of the state of trade, crime, pauperism, agriculture, aud finance, would have beer palatable to the monarch or the govern- ment. Unless historians have entered into a general conspiracy to deceive us, the kings of the olden time had as valid reasons as ingolvent merchants for declining to exhibit their books te the publis. Except under pure despotiams, these days have past. We live in the age of figures. Neither thetoricians nor poets can excite our enthusiasm be- yond the limit fixed by the eold arith uetician; it is wholly out of the power of the goverament to dis guise from us the smallest minu'im of our iaternel condition and external progress. Nor have we any motive for wishing to conceal our affuirs oithér fram ourrelves or from foreigners. On the contrary, we oexult in their publicity. If there be an American who is not proud of the oen- He is unconscious of the noble glow of patriotiem which irrefra gable evidence of the onward marca of his native land ought to inspiro, and doad to the sence of gratitude which the unparalleled blessings he shares ought to evoke All tho indnite mercies showered on this country fall unnoticed on his head— he cares not for bis home or his fellow-citizens. Ia him there beats no pulee of honorable rivalry with | foreigners, in the exerciee of the highest and most | useful faculties of man. His country and the world are alike indifferent to him. He lives and dies for How different were the feclings of the vas} ma- jorisy of the regders of last Tuosday’s Heratp? There are few, we are convinced, who did not real- ize a personal satisfaction, from the perusal of the | decuments it contained, as lively as though the ad- | yancement they chronicled was a private matter of their own. Few who did not feel, om casting a re troepective glance over the threescore years aud ten of our netional existence, aud measuring the pro- digious strides with which the handfu! of men who declared war egainst England have swelled into a nation of twenty-four millisns, that it was 2 proud thing to be an American. Lookisg not to doorepit nations or sluggish States, but beldly adventuring a parallel with the most prosperous and the most energetic kingdom of the Old World—Greet Britain— we find that, while her populatioa has inereased 102 per cent in the Jast half century, ours has increased 237 per cent. We discsver that, while more than one-balf the emigrants from Groat Britein and Lie write, four-millions of American youth (i. ¢, 20 per | cent. of the whole free population,) are receiving » sound education at our schools and colleges. We find that while, a few years ogo, every ninth indi yidual in England wasa pemper, and even now soma $40,000 persons are dependant on public charily for a eubsistence—while Ireland, from tho combined effects of national depravity and priestera‘t, is one vast poor-kouse—some 121,000 perzoma only, 63,000 of whom were foreizners, recoived support from the | tates’ frnds during the year. Our native paupers, during a whole year, did not amount to 1-363 of our population. Continuing the” parallel we see that, while the convistions in England and Wales, with a population of eighteen millions, were 26,000, in 1550, there were in the United States, with a popa- en of twenty four millions, during the same po- riod, 27,600 persons convicted, of whow 14,000 were | foreigners or foreign born, and « large proportion of he balance regroce or mulattoes.

Epwagp Evsrsrr—We publish this morning several interesting and important commu- nications from Ouba, previously crowded out, dicating the condition of affaira thero, in conneo- tion with the slave trade operations of the island We also give the letter of our present Secretary of State, Mr Everett, addressed to the Spanish Mi- meter, on the subject of the Cresvent City, s doeu- went not hitherto published. Our private correspondents detail, with great minvteness and exactitude, the ciccumstancss at- tending the arrest and imprisonment of Captain Adams Gray and his crew, and the sale and transfer of the American ship Lady Suffolk to parties ia Havana, for the purpose of being engaged in the slave trade. It is quite palpable that the design of the Captain-General, in having recourse to this appa rently cevere measure, was merely to docsive the Bri- tish residents, and the officers of the British squadron on the station, wich respect to hiso*n sentiments on the slave trade, and to furnish a sort of donial to the public rumor imputing té himeelf and Queen Christina an interest in these expeditions to the coast of Africa Our private letters direct, up to the first of December, state that the captain and orew | were stillin custody ; but we fiad by our public as- counts, probably later, from New Orleans, that they have beon discharged, and are now on their way to the United States. When Captain Gray ar- vives, we shall be able to eome at the true facts of the case; but, in the meantime, it wonld be man- ifest injustice to attribute to him a guilty know- ledge of the illegal business for which his ship wae intended by the purchaser. her destination, and, therefore, it would be ua- fair to form sny hasty conclusion as to kis cul- pability The British equadron on the coast of Caba, ex- hibits a marked determination to enforce the ob- servance of the slave treaty by Spain. Bat from the proportionate activity manifeated by the Cubans, and evidently sanctioned and encouraged by the authorities, in carrying orf the lucrative slave traffic, it will require the utmost vigilance of the c¥uisera to operate effectually in putting it down. Between | tha thus conflicting interests, there will probably | soon arive some serious collision, mere menucing in | its character, and more important in i‘s resulta, than | the Cressent City and Purser Smith difficulty. Cuba needs slaves, the Spanish officials need money, hut England is resolved that their necossities shall rot be supplied by the diabolical slave traffic, in the | face of their solemn treaty stipulations. The game is highly exciting, and we shall watch ite various } turns with the doepest interest.
