ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA AT BOSTON, Boston, Feb. 5—P. M. The Royal mail steamship Canada, Captain Stone, has arrived at her wharf at Fast Boston, having made a good run down, in spite of the fog. Her mails for the South will be despatched from here at 4 P. M. to-morrow, ina special train, which will be due in New York about 11 o'clock P, M. THE MARRIAGE OF LOUIS NAPOLEON. The London Times, in a lengthy article upon the Em- Pperor’s marriage, says :— As a mere question of personal dignity Louis Napoleon has done well to show that he is (hit Pree the, for- malities of royalty, and though he may become ridieu. lous when he imitates the traditions or habits of tho great courts of Europe, he has an instinctive conscious. ness that his strength lies in his sympathy with predilections, which coincide in this instance with his own taste. After an intimacy with the Emperor of some months, during which the yi Countess Teba had attracted a considerable amount of ublic.at- tention, » sense of what was due her own reputation ap- pears to have led the lady and her mother to announce their intended return to Madrid. It was only as the con- sort of the Emperor that she would consent to accept his homage. ‘This blow had its effect, and the imperial Pa- mela obtains her reward, in spite of some passages which were thought to indicate a different conclusion, but which have left no unfavorable trace on the name of the future Empress. The Countess is described by another paper as a young lady of twenty-five—exceedingly beautiful complexion, fair, andas graceful as a gazelle. It is thought that the democratic party will be conciliated by the marriage. THE REVOLUTIONARY STATE OF AFFAIRS IN SOUTH AMERICA. The Brazilian steamer, which arrived at Southampton prior to the sailing of the Canada, brought the details o late Buenos Ayres news. Of the two expeditions sent ou by the Buenos Ayreans to drive Urquiza from Sante Fe, it appears that the one under Madriga was defeated, and two hundred prisoners taken’ by Urquiza’s troops wore cruelly butchered. The expedition under Gen. Hornos, finding an imposing force directed against his late cap: tured town, (Gauls Quachu,) abandoned it and cut his way through in the direction of Corientes, which had de- elared in favor of Buenos Ayres. The government of Paraguay had announced a strict neutrality in the contest.

Tlearn from high authority that notreaty has yot been made between Mr. Everett and Mr. Crampton, and that, infact, nothing has been done beyond what I stated several weeks ago, namely, that a project had been drawn up binding nefther party, and merely giving a genoral outline of agreement. On this Mr. Crampton insisted upon engrafting the clause abopt registers of colonial voa:els, but, of course, without any concurrence by Mr. Everctt. By consent, this was sent to England, to see how far the British government would authorize the settling of a con- vention treating upon the subject indicated. The Africa brought Mr. Crampton fall instructions; but it is proba- ble the matter will rest for the present, as it is under- sidce Mr. Bverett ia unwilling to pursue tho question fur- ther at tn1s tate period. Senator Davis’ resolution, offered to-day, adopts the suggestion made some time ago in the HEran, of adjust- ing the matter of the fishery question by itself, by simply doing away with the twenty per cent duty on fish in British vessels as soon as our fishermen are permitted to fish on equal terms with the colonists. From present appearances, I believe this resolution will be all that will be done this session as regards the whole subject. xX. Y¥. Z THIRTY-SECOND CONGRESS. SECOND SESSION. Senate.

Mr. Davis, (whig) of Mass., introduced a bill to regulate the rights of fishing, and the rights of disposing of the proceeds of the fisheries, in and between the British North American provinces and the United States. Mr. D. said he was unwilling that the session should pass off without the introduction of some measure of this kind. He had, therefore, introduced the bill, and desired that it might be printed, that Senators might examine it, ‘The bill was referred. ‘This bill provides that wheneyer the President of the United States shall be satisfied that the American fisher- men are admitted to the privileges of British residents in the provinces, with all the incidental rights of curing and prepariug for market the proceeds of such fisheries, both upon water and land, then he shall issue his proclama- tion authorizing the fishermen of the British provinces the like privileges in the waters of the United States, to- gether with the privilege of entering the ports of entry in the United States on the paymentof the same duties which are required by law of American fishing vessels; vided, that nothing in this act contained, shall affect he private rights of ishing, Sr give any right to occupy private property, except upon agreement.

PRIVATE BILLS PASSED, ETC. ‘The House passed three private bills, and proceeded to the consideration of the joint resolution providing for printing and binding the returns of THE SEVENTH CENSUS. Mr. Gorman, (dem.) of Ia., commenced explaining the bill, when za Mr. Campnetz, (dem.) of Ill., asked whether, # the Census should rot be printed during the present Con- gress, the members now here would get any? Mr Gorman replied that the present mewbers would not get copies, unless they shall be printed during the present Congress. He said several bids were made fo the printing of the work. The last reeelved, from Lip. pincott & Co., was four hundred dollara under’ the pricks of the publie printer, and another from Parrish & Co., of Foiladeinhie, three thousand dollars less, (but deducting payment by go ernment of the freight,) not more than twelve hundred dollars, under the prices of the public printer. But, considering that the public printer has made ar outlay, it material, of fifty or sixty thousand dollars to do the government work, and Con- gress has provided a superintendent of printing, would it be proper to accept » bid at only four o twelve, hundred dollars less? ‘The committee have fixed the prices, that there may be no dodging. The work is to be printed in compact quarto form, of one thousand pages, in brevier type, without the benefit of fat. For a thousand copies, the labor and paper will cost nineteen thousand one hun: dred and sixty: three dollars—the former a little over ten’ thousand dollars. An effort has been made by the Demo- cratic Review to alarm the country with the belief that this is a two hundred thousand dollar job, but it cannot, by any kind of calculation, exceed the sum before named. ‘The bill proposed to print nothing more nor less than the returns ordered to be taken under the census law, throw- ing out the historical preparation. Deducting’ all ex- penses, and wear and tear, the public printer cannot er Ed than twenty-five hundred doilars on the thou- sand copies. Mr. Stanton, (dem.) of Ky., remarked he had received intelligence that Lippincott "& €o., or Parrish & Co., would print the work at a much less cost than was pro- posed to be given to the poblic printer. Mr. Goran said Lippincott & Co. would perhaps pub- lish it for nothing, for the purpose of having the ex- elusive sale of the work; besides, the prices of printing were much less in Philadelphia than in. Washington. Mr. Brown, (dem.) of Miss., offered an amendment, that the work shall be done in a style similar to the spe- cimen volume laid before the Committee on Printing, to be embraced in two volumes of one thousand pages each, the cost of the printing not to exceed the prices paid under the act regulating the publio printing, the paper to be purchased, as now, by government, the binding to bedone in the style of ‘the Eimaresonat Globe and ap- fifty cents a volume. § pposed the amendment.," pendix, for 1852, and not to e: », Was for the resolution as Mr. Haven, (whig) of N.

Mr. Stanton, of Ky., said Parish, Denning & Co., offer to do the work thirty-one per cent under the bid of Lip- pineott & Co., and twenty-seven per cent below those of the Bobile printers. He had Sharsfereamaneted, an ameni- ment, to give the public printer the work at five per cent above Parrish & Co.’s bid, and if he should not take it at this, to give it to Parrish & Co. Mr. Srantzy, (whig) of N. C:, offered this amendment. Mr. Orr, (dem ) of 8.

The New Empress of France. _ We are indebted to an esteemed friend, who was formerly resident in Veiagt ht the eo adoe | sketch, which seems to explain the family origin of the new Empress of France very satisfactorily. Her history is no less romantic than that of the Empress Jose- ine:— By to-day’s advices from Europe we are told that the Finperor Napoleon Ill. has espoused a Spanish lady ‘whose grandfather was British consul at Malaga, and whose mother was an Irish lady by the name of Fitzpa- trick;”’ also, that this new Empress was in her own right Countess Teba, although bearing the name of Mad’lle. Montego. Thus much by telegraph. Now the plain ish of all this is no doubt as follows:— om worthy Scotchman, by the name of Wm. Kirkpatrick was for some time the American consul at Malaga, an failing in business, was suceeeded by George @. Barrel as United States consul at Malaga. This was, I think, under President Monroe’s administration. Mr. Kirkpatrick’s eldest daughter Mnria, or ‘‘Mariqui- ta,” as she was fandiliarly called and known by all Americans there, was a very fine, dashing lady, and mar- ried the Count de Teba, a younger brother of the cele- brated Palafoix, who behaved so gallantly at the siege of Zaragoza, and who in reply to a demand of surrender, declared he would continue the defence by “War to the knife.” ‘The Palafoix family embraced numerous titles, and was singularly brave and noble. ‘this husband of Maria Kirkpatrick (Count de Teba) was a gallant soldier, and so cut up by wounds as to be unable to mount his horse without aid, and, when in the , looked more as if he ‘was hooked on than seated ‘The new Empressof the French is, no doubt, the daugh- ter of this Cocusena Teba—‘‘Mariquita pte era rhe the daughter of William Kirkpatrick, late United Biates ooneel nT healagsnot British consul—not Fitz- patrick—and not Irish. ‘The British consul at Malaga was William Laird, an- other old Seotch gentleman, and he was followed by Mr. ut the new ‘Empress of France was Countess Tebs, as stated, then her mother is dead, as also is hor father, and she took the title of her mother.

Judges Duer, Campbell, Boswort. and Emmet, THE BROADWAY RAILROAD case. Fee. 5.—The Presiding Justice, Duer, delivered an elabo- rate opinion in the case of the motion for a aétsehment against the Aldermen and the Boards of Comniow Council, for contempt of Court, in violating. an injunetion: whiol. restrained them from leasing Broadway for a ¥ne of rail- road. Alderman Sturtevant was held to bail t# fie sum of $600. . After citing various cases, his Honor conc tuded by saying:— I must not be understood as meaning to expr 18 here any opinion upon the question, that can only prop ly be discussed and considered upon a motion to disso @ the injunetion, or upon the final hearing; but theconclusi ®t which I have arrived, in which all the Judges who] ‘ve assisted me entirely eoneur, and all of whom have ca *e- fully—each one of them, diligently and carefully—com dered the question, that the order which Alderman Stur- * tevant refnsed to obey was a valid exercise of the jurisdie- = tion of this Court, and that, eonsequently, no adequate cause has [been shown why an attachment should not Issue against him for contempt, which, from the papers before us, he appears to have been guilty of; and the mo-_ tion for an attachment is granted. It may be eonsidered an omission in the opinion, that I bave made no comments whatever upon the actual proceedings of the Common Council, and especial- ly of the resolution moved by Alderman Stur- tevant: It is quite certain that the spirit of that resolution, and especially the indscency and injustice of the attack upon Mr. Justice Campbell, would Justify a very severe punishment; but for the present 1 shall’ content myself with citing the language of @ learned Judge, who, I do not hesitate to say, was alike distinguished by the moderation of his temper, the purity of his character, and the soundnens of his judgment. Judge Mason says:— ‘““We live under a government of laws. It is oneof the peculiar. felicities of our condition that the moral sense of the community is so strongly upon the side of obedience to the law. It is the peculiar duty of those who profess, and, I will add, all who are concerne® in the administration of justice and the exocution of the law—it is especially their duty to elevate and strengthen the spirit of cbedience to judicial authority, and itis matter of deep regret when any of thiose whose provinoe it is to aid in gny manner in the administration of jus- tice, by their own example, encourage a disregard ef the decisions of its courts or any of its judges.’” ‘The opinion will be published in extenso in Monday's Herat.

Mr. T. A. Hogan, of St. Peter’s Church, played the ovar- ture ‘Italiani in Algeira,” and a quartette from Spohr, and selections from various operas. Mr. Connelly: organist of St. Ann’s Church, Eighth street, performed a selection from Russell and Rink’s flute concerto. These compositions were sre, way calculated to show the manifold capabilities of the organ; but as the room waa rather small, a fair judgment could not be formed of the power of the instrument; and with regard to the diapa- fon in particular, it was made to i aon that there was a lack of volume. On the whole, however, the audience wore highly gratiged, am Mr. Erben has every reagon to be proud of having constructed such an organ: Fire At THE Invina Hovse.—About five o'clock yester- day morning, the inmates of the Irving House were alarmed by t! oor of fire, which was caused by one of the beams immediately underneath tho grate ing fire, and communicating with the flooring, whicn was ina few minutes envelo: in flames.
