The Additional European News Haurax, Jane 7, 1853, The wires being again in working order, we areenabled to-transmit some additional news brought by the-Canada, which is mostly of s very mmportant character. Sir Charles Lyell and Mr. Joseph Whitworth, two of the Royal Commissioners to the New York Exhibition, are amongst the passengers by the Canada. On Saturday, the 28th ult., the Canada saw the steam- ship Asia, from New York on the 18th., the City of Glas- gow, from Philadelphia, and the ship Themis, going up the channel, for Liverpool. An English Cabinet Council on Eastern affairs had been summoned for the 29th ult., (Sunday.) Four thousand passports have lately been issued to Hurgerians who design coming to America, Most of them are bound for California. The emigrants promise not toreturn to Austria. The Mormon Elders are to be expelled from Persia, It is reported that the American ship of war Cumber- land, with Mr. Marsh on board, has demanded an expla- nation, and 8,000 drachms from Greece, for the illegal im- prisonment of Dr. King, the acting American Consul at Athens. The French three per cents closed,on the 27:h, at 80.85, and the four and a half per cents at 103.10, for cash. Condition of Affairs in Turkey. THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR, &0. The Porte having refused to accept the Russian ulti- matum, Prince Menschikoff embarked at Constantinople on board a Russian ship of war for Odessa. Redschid Pasha, the anti-Russian statesman, is ap- pointed Minister of Foreign Affairs, Despatches in Paris to the 19th, confirm the rupture in the diplomatic relations, and state the Russian troops were receiving reinforcements. Their situation appears critical. The Turkish brig Selim had been sent with an important order to the Governor of Jerusalem and the French Consul there. A second edition of the Times, of the 28th, has a tele- graphic despatch, dated Vienna, on the evening of the 26th, stating that Menschikoff and suite have left Con- stantinople, and that Russian subjects are placed under the protection of the Danish ambassador. The French fleet are said to have received permission to pass the Dar- danelles. ° Our Paris correspondent telegraphs to Liverpool that it is not feared the peace of Europe will be disturbed by the Turkish difficulty, it being reported that the British Minister has so stated. The telegraphic reports, how ever, contradict each other flatly. Just prior to the Canada’s departure a despatch was received by submarine telegraph at Liverpool, stating that Menschikof’s seven days expired without any ar- rangement being made with Turkey ; but the steamer, with Menschikoff on board, had not sailed from Constan- tinople on the 20th May. Very Important from China. THE REBELS TO BE CHECKED BY THE FRENCH, ENG- LISH AND AMERICANS—THE U. 8. NAVAL FLEET— JOHN BULL IN A QUANDARY. The dates are to the llth of April, The American, French and English ships of war on the coast of China, have, on the urgent request of the Emperor, anda requi- sition from the Chinese authorities, consented to guard Nankin, Shanghae, and the mouth of the great canal, against the rebels. ~ The Times cays:—“It is a rather suspicious circum- stance that just now, when their very smart missionaries bave given the Americans more intelligence of the nature and progress of the rebellion than our British representa- tive and merchants were ever likely to do, that they have in those waters the largest armament ever seen in the Fast under their flag. What if the army, apparently in- tended for the chastisement of Japan and the opening of Jeddo, should really have another object—to hoid the balance of Chinese parties, and to slip in at the right mo, ment and grasp the prize?” The 7imes adds:—“The pos- session of an India would break up the federal Union as surely—as immediately—as the conquest of Europe de- stroyed the old constitution of Rome.’’ The Latest from India; UNSATISFACTORY CONDITION OF AFFAIRS—NO PROS- PECT OF PEACE IN BURMAH. The India mail had been telegraphed via Marseilles, with Bombay dates to the 25th of April. At Calcutta business was slack. Exchange on London was at 214, owing to an influx of bills from China. The news from Burmah is to the 13th of April, and is of an unfavorable character. More troops were wanted, and there was no prospect of peace. The Burmese Com- missioners had refused to sign the treaty. ‘The latest account received by submarine telegraph at Liserpool, says :—Peace had been formally proclaimed at the Cape of Good Hope. Commercial Affairs. LONDON MONEY MARKET. Money was in increased demand, Three per cent was the lowest rate of discount on prime short dates.

No variation in other secu- es, : THE LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. For American cotton there had been a good strady de- mand throughout the week, but having been freely met by holders, no change in "price had taken place. The sales ot the week wero 54.540 bales, (of which 40,390 were Amerioan,) including 9,880 on speculation and 2,750 for export. ‘The quotations were as follow: New Orleans fair.....6%d.

THE LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET. ‘The arrivals of breadstuffs had been liberal id the weather fine, yet the graia trade had ruled firm, and a fair amount of business was dene in leading articles at fully previous quotations.

A full meeting of the stockholders in the Ogdensburg Railroad was held here to-night, the attraction being the proposed consolidation of Northern railroads under one board of management, The annual report showed the total earnings of the year 1852 to be $480,127; expenditures, $284,200, The re- port showsan increase of income over 1851 of 48 per cent, and of expenses 68 per cent. No unsettled claim exists but that of Mr, Belknap. No dividend will be declared on the earnings of 1852, but the income will pay all expenses and interest on the debt; and should the income continue to increase, as anti- cipated, the stockholders will soon be in receipt of hand- rome dividends. Mr. Crane, in answer to questions, explained the finan- cial condition of the Sapeny, and then proceeded to speak of the errors of present management, and argued that the remedy was, to make one line of railroad from the tide water at Boston to Lake Ontario, Rovse’s Port, June 7, 1858, The anti-Crane ticket was elected by about 1,700 majo rity; Chandler's vote was 11,302; Holbrook’s, (on both tickets,) 18,318; Lee, (on both tickets,) 18,358, The highest yote on the consolidation ticket was 8,363, It is paid that the ticket elected is opposed to consolidation.

Haatvorp, June’ 7, 1853. The committee appointe/ to examine into the ea, we of the railroad disaster at Norwlk, submitted their repor t to tho Legislature to-day. Afte: alluding to the general in cidents of the disaster, as publshed by the papers and bi ‘ought out in the verdict of the corozer’s jury, the eo nmit- tee say that they are opinion that the immediate cause of the disaster was tle negligence of the jengineer im not observing the abseme of the signal, and his recklessness in running his traiyat a dangerous rate of speed in ap- proaching the bridge around the curve. But the com. mittee are cf the spinion that the responsibliity for the disaster does not rest entirely with the engineer, and ac- quit him of ary wilful act. They say the danger was created in entire conformity to the express orders of the company, andit was therefore their duty to use such means of safety as would prevent the possibility of an ac- cident. ithe Gramltiee think the signal used imeuficient; and say that 2 man with a flag should have been station. ed to warn the engineer of his danger. ‘They also ray that the was run, on such’a grade as exists at Norwalk, at a rate of speed entirely unsafe. ‘Another clore'y connected cause is the rate of speed made Lb express train, The public demand a rate of speed which on theyoad as originally constructed, can scarcely be run with sifety. The road was constructed too cheaply to warrant the highest rate of speed—the grades are too heavy, the carves of too emall radius, and the bridges are not of as permanent a character as they should be— a large outlay has been made for a double track, and still more is needed, to remedy many defects in the original construction of the road, which the committee are in formed by the President, the company now have under consideration Another caase tending to produce this and other dieas- ters is the want of thorough supervision of the road by its officers. {0 far as the committee could ascertain, the whole dary of supervision is devolved upon Mr. Whistler, the superinteadent. They have the fullest confidence in his ability en¢ fidelity, but say that the duties are too great for one nan, and that the personal supervision uf the’President of the road wonld very much tend to insure proper obedience to rules on the part of employers, and reduce the chinces of disasters. In conclusion, the committee expressed the opinion that the weight of responsibility for the calamity must rest upon thecompany, for not guarding more securely inst the largers which were known to exist, and which were qeated by their own orders, against the negligence evin of their own employes, in such a place of danger. They say that considerations of a pecuniary na- ture should xiot operate to prevent such cara, and repeat that the presautions taken were not sufficient, The re- port was ordered to be printed. The committee did not submit a bill or resolution for action, as theStanding Committee on Railroad Accidents design ‘reporting @ general law.

EXCITING DEBATE IN THE ASSEMBLY CONCERNING THE CANAL CONFERENCE COMMITTEE—NO EXECU- TIVE SESSION OF THE SENATE—ANOTHER CANAL BREAK, ETO. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. ALBANY, June 7, 1853, This morning, when the action of the Senate upon the Canal question was announced in the House, Mr. Bur- roughs rose and moved that the Canal Commtttee— Messrs. West, Champlia, Van Alstyne, democrats, and Messers. Clapp and Littlejohn, whigs—be constitted as the committee of conference on the part of the House. Mr. Champlin addressed the House in opposition to the motion, mainly on the ground that it would be taking the appointment out of the hands of the Speaker, He was quite severe in a portion of his remarks upon the conduct of the Senate, in having deprived the presiding officer of selecting the committee on the part of that body, and also made a declaration that the people of the Genesee Valley were opposed to any amendment of the constitution, He was replied to by Messrs. Burroughs and Hendee, Several whigs also opposed the motion to appoint, alleging that the majority had fled from one proposition to another, and should be held responsible for farther action, They wanted the Speaker to take the responsibility, and if he selected such a committeo ns was rot disposed to compromise, then they wanted the question to go to the people. Several members on the side of Mr. hs desired him to withdraw his mo tion, to which he at length reluctantly yielded, and the motion was left in the hands of the Speaker, who selected four Comocrats and one hig end majority, of course, being stauneh advecatos of the West plan. ‘fhe remain: der of the morning session was spent in passing bills of no particular interest, and in discussing others in com- mittee, equally unin) nt. ‘A quorum appeared promptly in tho Senate, and that distinguished body entered upon tho disposition of bills requir final action. Nothing of importance was trans- acted. on the hour of twelve arrived. Mr. Bristol in- uired if it was not executive day, and ated to take Ey ‘business of that character. Mr. Vanderbilt also spoke in relation to that matter, and the President re- plied that there was no business which required an exe- cutive session. So the fact is pha | clear that his Excel- leney, Governor Seymour, does not intend tosend up the names of any democrats for harbor masters, loan com- missioners, &o.

Mr. Coouxy presented a memorial of a number of citi- zens of New York, for the repeal or modification of the Emigrant law of last session. This is signed by J. Phillips Phoenix, Boorman, Johnston & Co., and other prominent citizens, NOTARIES FOR NEW YORK.

MECHANICS’ LIEN LAW. ‘The bill to amend the Mechanics’ Lien law in the county of Kings, came up for a third reading. Mr, Coorsy (dem ) attacked the billas mischievous, and calculated to injure alike employer and mechanic. It was @ futile affair—just a surface like attempt to produce & sort of reform, without doing it at all. Mr. C. detailed his experience in building in New York. ll these bills tend to throw the poor mechanic out of employment. Mr. VANDERBILT (oun) said all the talk of the Senator from the First was for Sie pero: of protecting the rich owners. It happens that they are the parties affected— not the poor mech: Mr. Bascock, (whig).—All bills of thiskind are mis- nomers. They are bills to get mechanics into lawsuits, and to furnish employment for lawyers: and yet there is a great desire to have these lien laws. The statute book isfullof them. As this isa local one, and seems well drawn, it had probably better pass. All these bills in- duce mechanics to make contracts with irresponsible persons. They rely on their lien, and then go toa law- yer to find out how to enforce it. This goes to the benefit of the |seomeor rather than to the mechanic, The bill passed. \anic. TOLL GATES ON PLANK*ROADS, The bill in relation to toll gates on plank ronda gave rise to somuch debate that it was determined immediately to,gomaider it in committee of the whole. e debate took a very wide range, from the Railwa; Superintendent bill of last year to Jones’ Park, f Mr. Van Seuooxnoven (whig) raid that for the last twenty years he had oceasion to travel on the roads in his vieinity, especially in political campaigns. He had never found’ an instance in which the gate keeper, night and day, was not present and on hand to recelve the toll. Often he been kept waiting fifteen or twent miputes for the recetver of the tribute to attire himself, in the midnight hour, to receive company and take the fee. He remembered’ but one exceptioa—once, in the time when the anti-rent feeling was pretty well up—the gate was open: but that was the enly instance. The bill parsed through the Committee of the Whole, and was ordered to's third reading, ‘The Senate took a recess. AFTERNOON SESSION. THE SUPREME COURT OF NIW YORK.

THE TRYASURER’S ACCOUNTS. A message from the Senate was read relati7e to the ap- Ppointment of a committee to examine the Treasurer's ac counts, with a joint resolution, which lies ovez: THE PROPOSED CAITAL CONFERENCE COMMITTRE, The Senate also sent down the Canal resolutions, with a message that the Senate do not concur in the:Assem- bly amendments, and proposing a committee 2€ confer- ence. Mr. Burroveus (ind. dem.) of Orleans, movedthat the Canal Committee be appointed as the conference commit- tee on the part of the House, ‘Mr. CaamPtin, (dem ) of Allegany, hoped not, vd was proceeding to debate, when Mr, Burroughs asked ‘if it,did not lie aver. ‘The Sreaker said it was not of such a nature as to lie over, and was now debateable. Mr, Carin oppored the motion, as it would take the appointment from the hands of the Speaker, who ought, he thought, to make it. He proceeded to speak of the Probable results if the Senate had acted upon the Assem- ly plan, with a history of the action of both houses. ‘This measure of constitutional amendment was not one in which his constituents wore particularly interested. Kither of the appropriation bills which lie idle and un- acted upon in the Senate, would be greatly preferred :by them. A proposition was now made by the gentleman from. , (Mr. Burroughs,) to take from the Speaker part power which was granted him when the rules of this House were adopted. This plan had been alluded to before. As for this committee, he cared little of whom it was compored, but he could not sanction thus taking the appointing power from the hands of the presiding oflicer. He had confidence in him, and did not ire thus to tramme! bim. Mr. Burxovors followed. He had not contemplated apy debate upon his motion, but the gentleman from frcm Allegany (Mr. Champlin) had taken exceptions there- to, and had, he thought, travelled a good way beyond. ‘The gentleman must, to torture the motion into any dis- respect to the chair, see what he and others failed to see. He thought it’ was a proposition upon which the Honse could act intelligently. The gentleman had him- ae oppored heretofore the despoiling of this committee. His tacticg bad changed, as circumstances altered oases. He had cOmfidence that if the chair shoul int, it would appoint the Canal Committee, if any were lelt off; it would be the gentleman from Alle any, (Mr. Charnpli He spoke of the Genesee Valloy Canal, that it had cost $6,600,000, and would never repay the expense of keeping it in repair. He reviewed the positions of the gentleman who preceded him, and examined the two bills which had been proposed. He spoke of the ‘miserable six inch policy ef Governor Seymour,” as he termed it. He (Mr. Champlin) says’ his constituents aro not in- terested in this project of immediate canal enlargement. 1 beg leave to join issue with him, and would venture to try it before a company of his own constituonts, the intel: Bgent people of Allegany county, with the eloquent ge tomas himself; and if he don’t behavo himself bettor the remainder of the session, I will do it, too, next fall. He confessed his only motive in this matter was to hasten the matter, to get it before the House, He had confi- dence in the Canal Committes—if the gentleman fro: Allegany, (Mr. Champlin,) was not on tt, he should hay perfect confidence in it. He thought that by waiting till to morrow the gentleman would be willing to father the motion himself. And, if he desired, he would withdraw the motion that it might be made by one in the ‘regular line.’ He hoped neither the Chair nor the House would concur with the gentleman in attributing the motion to disrespect to the House, he thought it the highest of respect ard confidence for the Canal Committee was one of of the Chair’s cwn appointment. Mr. Weer, (dem.) of Jefferson, had hoped that the ques tion would be acted upon, without the long speeches that had so much delayed the action of the House. He thonght the right of appointment belonged to the Chair, and it was disrespectiul to seek to take this pewer from him. Mr. D. B. Taytor, (dem.) of N. ¥., thought fit was evi- dort that this committee as it now stands owght not to be made the conference committee. He hoped the gen- tleman would withdraw his motion, and thy, debate ter- minate, and we act upon the resolution. Mr. B. W, Rosn, (dem ) of St. Lawrence, called the ayes and noes Mr. Suaw, (dem.) of N. ¥., requested the gentleman from Orleans to withdraw his motion. ‘tle declined. Messrs, Lirtiwonn and CLarr, mer jbers of the Canal Committee, expressed their entire cont dence in the Chair, and the fact that the measure was ner, to them. Mr. Bastines, (whig) of Metres hoped the motion vould be withdrawn. It was a gzeaf. State measure, and people in the whole, and partioudar’ y in the western part of the State, wore interested in it, ‘and they called for the enlargement. The people ot Gener ae Valley called loud for it, He hoped this commit .e, however appointed, would represent the g tintanes’ ; of the State. He should yote against the motion, as ‘was opposed to throw! a frebrand into their ranks. _ ine Mr. CuatriEtD, (whig) of “Tioga, thought the motion would be lost unanimously. Mr. CLarr, (whig) of did not bolieve it wise to at. tempt to accomplish that y hich was known could not be accomplished; and he did not desire to vote for himself and against the Speaker; these and others were reasons he was opposed t@ ‘the motion. Ir. Henpxe, (whig) ¢,f Livingston, was in favor of the motion, of thus endorr ing the selection of the Speaker. We knew what the er mmittee were. and that they were better acquainted y/ith the subject than others, and would better roprew unt the House, Ho did not believe in thus dodging for courtesy’s sake. Mr. Pwrers, (w?.ig) of Genesee, waa surprised at the motion; it as inexpedient, He was opposed to it, first beeawys he hoped to hold the majority responsi- dle for all thet was done upon the canal question. He had; however, no fear with regard to tbe canals, Mr. How gy, (whig.) of Niagara, wondered as he came into the },ouse what had made the gentleman from Alle- gany (sr, Champlin) so eloquent; but he recalled the recent, jayrels he bad won in an adjacent province, and no! nger was surprised. He desired a new committes, AP J one that would agree with the one from the Senate. ‘me reason why be desired a new committee was because near Albion, 4 be desired to throw the re-pousibility upon the majerity PRICE TWO CENTS. —— of the majority in the House.

The engineers immediately set to work, with as. much sang froid as if they were ina machine shop, and before assistance could arrive they had fixed everything right. It was fortunate that it was so, for the position of the train was anything but agreeable for the passea- gers, isolated as they were on one of the long railway viaducts that run in different B nge A along the Hudson, with the river on both sides. In bringing the train tom atop the other wheels were likewise thrown off tho which might have ended in a more disastrous manner the equilibrium of the cars had been destroyed, as im that case the whole train must have inevitably gene over. into the river with the whole of its human contents.
