, WHOLE NO. 7113 IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE. The Reported Safe Arrival of the Pacific in the Shannon. Arrival of the U. 5. Steamer Arctle at Halifax. THE CLAYTON-BULWER TREATY. Highly Interesting Debate inthe House of Lords, ARBITRATION PROPOSED BY LORD CLARENDON, &., &., &. ADDITIONAL BY THE CANADA, Nows of the return of the Pacific was recetved by Mr. Collins yesterday afternoon, and sent @ thrill of joy through the city. It came to him in the following des- patch :— ‘To E, K, Coxtins :— A private letter states that the Pacific put into the Shan- mon on her way out of the Channel, on account of the severity of weather, ALBERT PILSBURY, American Consul, ‘The Carada arrived at Halifax at four o'clock on Sun- Gay morning, and the report of the return of the Pacific not having been made known till yesterday afternoon, many were Jed to doubt the accuracy of the statement. It should be recollected, ia tating the difference of time in conaiceration, that the working of the wires was inter- tupted on Sunday night by a snow and rain storm. It is strange that « private letter vhould mention the Pacific at all, if she was not really at some port ia Ire- ‘and. The writer otherwise would have every reason to beliove that the P. was sale oa this side of the Atlantic. Ths following despatches have been reseived at the Hsratp office:— Haurax, Feb. 18, 1866, Haurax, Feb. 18, 1858, James Campbell, a young gentleman of this city, who ‘arrived in England by the Canada on her last outward trip, writes to C, Murdusk & Co., of Helifax, as fullows:— LivERpoot, Jan. 28, 1855. ‘The weather here has been very severe during the paat week, The Pacific was obliged to put into the Saannon iver en her way out of the Channel, and the Royal ‘Charter, Australian steamer, was forced to put back to Plymouth, JAMES CAMPBELL, This is all—no particle of news here to corroborate it. Haurax, Feb, 18, 1856, ‘The United States steamer Arctic arrived here at two o'clock this afternoon, under ssil, with propeller foul. She has been no further east than this point. As yet we ‘ave no news here of the Pacias. ‘The following is a list cf the passengers who sailed on the 28d ult., in the Pacific: — J. Figuerias, Mr. Wilson, H. C. Shiidon, Mr. Lieden, A. ‘W.

IMPORTANT DEBATE IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS ON THE CLAYTON-BULWEK TREATY—THE QUEEN’ SPBECH—ARBITRATION PROPOSED. On Thursday, Jan 31, the Queen of England openet ‘Parliament with the usual ceremony The persons most noticed in the gorgeous asserbiage in the House of Lords were Mr. Buchanan, in citizen’s dress; the Tark- ish Minister, because he wore a fez; and the Haytien Am- Dassador, on account of his calor. In the House of Lords, the Earl of Gosford moved the addrers, and the Farl of Abingdon secondea it. The Earl of Derby did not oppose, but considered the royal speech bare, cold and meagre, saying it ought to have referred to the ‘‘state of our affairs with America, with India, and ‘the Colonies, and to the fall of Kars.” In carrying ont the foreign enlistment scheme the government, he con- ceived, had evaded the spirit of the municipal law of the Tnited States, and he hoped the apology offered would be received. He regretted, however, that there was not a conciliatory paragraph introduced into the speech ia re- ference to the subject. The whole spesch, he said, was redolent of water gruel. ‘The Earl of CLarznpow replied as follow: I wish to take an early opportunity of referring to tho state of our relations with the United States. In my opinion, there can be no doubt as to tue common sease wiew of the obligations of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and yet itis upon the in'erpretation of that treaty that a difference of opivion has srisen. In such a case a sor- respondence is useless, and I lost no time in offering to re- fer the whole question to the arbitration of any third Pow2r, Doth sides agreeing to be bound by the decision, ‘That offer has not yet ben accepted. It has been renewed, endl hope, that upon further consideration, the United States government will agree toit. With respect to reeruit- irg in the United States, it, would not have aided a triendly solution to allude to it from the throne, inasmuch as the correspondence must have been prodaced, and corres- ponéence still continues. The most recent demands of the government of the United States have been received but wo Gays, and are not yet in a» state to be mage public. The origin of the trouble was thls:—At the beginning of the war numerous foreigners in the United States applied to the British government for per- mission to jon the army in the East, in consequence of which instructions were sent to the government of Nova Scotia to consider whether persons from the United States could be received at Halifax. Mr. Crampton was at the came time informod that, anxious as England was for recruits, she was s'il] more anxious that there should be no violation or infringement of the municipal law ot ‘the United States. An sgency office was opened, and, upon complaint being made, Mr. Crampton desired it ‘might be made public that the British government did not recruit or raise soldisrs in the Untied States, and he made known his instructions to Mr. Marcy, who then capressed himself satisfied. Judge Kane bad decided that to pay the passage of a man to ® foreign port, and then enlist him, was no viola- tion of international law; and those persons whose pas- pages were paid to Canada West, as volunteers, were not Dound to enter the Brilish service. A correspondence, of a not very amicable nature, has taken place between the two governments, but the transactions to which it refers are bygone transactions, and from the commence- mont the British government bas disclaimed infringin in avy way the laws of the United States. With the coa duct of Mr. Crampton, his government is perfectly satis fied, for 1 am convineed that neither intentionally no: accideatally did he violate any law of the United States. Lord Clarendon then went on to say that he hoped tne difficulty was susceptible of w peaceful solution, and that no slight was meant by the non-mention of America ia the Queen's speech. In the House of Commons, the address in reply to the ‘Queen's speech was moved by Mr. Byng, and seconde by Mr. Baxter, Admiral Nap‘er took his seat as the new member fcom Southwark, and immediately moved for papers relating to his Baitic expedition, Mr. Baille gave notice of a resolution to the effect that the employment of agents for enlistment in foreign ‘countries lowers the dignity of Great Britain, and is cal- ‘culated to endanger peaceable relations with other States, Capt. C. H. Welsh, of the bark St. Lawrence, of New York, committed suicide at Liverpool on the 80th uit.

French, and the suspension of diplomatic relations between Nica- regua ard the United States, is having its effect in this city, The news was wholly unexpected, and the curious are everywhere arking fur explanation. There are not perhaps, thirty persons in this city, including the wis. dom of the Cabinet, the national Congress, and th public generally, who had foreseen this prompt termination o cur recent relations by the Nicaraguan government. It is even a question if the result was anticipated by Col. Fierch himself, who had just lett Washington, after being a eecond time refused recognition by the Presilent. The knowledge of this fact was calculated to give doubt to the telegraphic intelligence first received, and this doubt was not xemoved until a full account of the matter appeared in your pager. This independence cn the part of a gov- ernment scarcely three months old, was not counted upon by Secretary Marcy, and bis surprise at this early exhibition of temper must have been very considerabie. Bis slow and urcertain policy has found no imita- tor in the new republic, whose prompt resentment of a premeditated insult 1s received with unusual maz ifestaticns of delight by all with whom I have spoken upon the subject. Members of Congress express them- selves in favor of come public demonstration, approba- tory of the course pursued by Nicaragua; and [aa con- Ldent, if you would but suggest the cailof s mveting upon the subject, you would find ready to attend the eame mary distinguiehed speakers from this ctty. This 4s the first icstance during the admiaiatration of General Pierce where any definite conclusion has been come at in his treatment with ** foreign jth and it was dout- less the intention of Marcy to ¢ Nicaragua feel rome of that humility, by his axti-national conclusions, waich has teen imposed upon the United States by every Euro- yeen government that she has had relations with, and which, thus far, she has not had the spirit to resent. However this may te, Nicaragua has honored herself b: ter dignified and beld stand, one of the resul:s of waic will be to mak for her and her cause additional fetenda in every part of ths Union. Is the speculation devoid of force, that gives to this enterprise a final union of all the Southern States, now forming a part of the United Stat wth Central america, into one great Southern con! sracy, with laws and institutions of its own? [leave the answer with these so-ca'lea national advocates, in and cut of Congress, who, while insisting upcn the main- tenarce of ‘he rights of the South, by a disptay of fair words, are practically engaged in giving aid and strength to those who openly deciare themselves ia favor of tueir destruction. ‘The war feeling bas censihly moderated within the last week or wo, and many of the Senate are working to have the Central American question barded over to the Com- mittee cn Foreign Reiations, where it wil be kept quiet until an opportunity offers to back out of the whole af- feir. This is tne light in which ths motion is looked up- on to refer the question to this committee; and after wil the blusterings ot the Presient for early action, it is now understood that he favors the reterence Notaiths‘and- ing the out door abatement of the war fever, General Cass, Clayton, and other distinguished Senators, stil re- gard our relations with Great Britain as very cri‘ical, aud bave no hesitancy in thus ¢xpressing themselves up- on the sutject when inquiry is made. ‘The protabilities of a war have brought to Wach- ington some new amd appaiently very cestructive in- ventions in the way of eubmarine batteries, and taat class of death dealio machines, which are shortly to be submitted to the War and nity. Departments for expe- riment. I have seen some ct the drawiegs and pluns, which promise, at least, formidable rewuits. Tue Naut* lus battery, for example, is a floating cylinder from which radiates a circular battery ot mortar shaped tuoes, charged with shot bell of m peculiar construc- tion, which can all be blown up together by an electiic wire, connected with the nearest light- house or tort. The gune are made of irun plate, and each gun can be charged to the muzzie and exploded like animmense bombshell, making, in a continuation of ee three mortars, the force of dive hundred sheils, of t largest calibre known in military servi willcover an ares of a mile or more wi fistible shower of cutting shot, and exploding eheil, and burning flamer, ip could withstand an instant. The inventor ‘computes the whole expense of ono of tuese batteries at about three thousand dollars, or something less than the cost of an ordinary amount of ordinary shells, His plan is to move these batieries in pairs, in ranks along the channel of approach, in such positions that no fleet can come near enouga to bombard the city to be defended without passing over or near the Nautilus ‘When the enemy comes in its range tne electric spark is sent on its errand, and the hostile fleet is eaveloped in fiery destruction before it can commence its work ot mischief. Another inveotion is a kind of floating fire ehell, of great size and power, charged with Greek fire, and a kind of wedge shaped’ shot, which 1s also con- nected witha galvanic battery.

In eccordance with section 3 of article 3 of the ¢ nsti- tution of the National Councii of the Unitea States of North America, authorizing the Preafdent to cali s #pe- cial meeting ‘upon the written request of fivs delegates Teprerenting five Ssate Couccits,”’ the provisions of aid sec icm having teen complied with, by the authority of said constitution, notice is hereby given to the several State Courciis and to the delegates tu the National Coun- cil, that there will be « apscial mee ‘ing of saia council to be hilden in Philsdelphia on Mocday, the 18th day of February rext, fur the transaction of such business a3 may be brought before it. B.D. BARILET, Presideut National Council, U. S,.N. A. ‘This call was issued at the request of the Council held in Ciccinnatl in November last, and the object of the meeting at this time is s+t forth in the foilowing resolu- tices which were adopted at Ciaciunati:— Resolved, That tke repeal of the Missouri compromise ‘was @n infrac fon of the Us Felacs faith of the nation, and that it should be restored; and if efforta to thal end should fui], Congress should refuse to admit into tue Union apy State tolerating slavery which shuli be formed out of apy porticn of the tor:itory from which that insti- tution was excluded by that compromise. Resolved, That thia convention protests sgalnst coalescing with any party which demands the pos:pone- ment cr abandonment of American principies or the diz- orgenization of the American party. ‘esolved, That this convention recom mend to the dele. pate ot the Statex here represented to the National ur ei] to request ihe President of the National Counsil to call a meoting of the same, to be held at Philadelphia on the 18th day ot February next. ‘he convention at Cincinnati was one of persons wh> had bolted from the National Couacil held st Pailadel- phia, June, 1866, and the cause of the bolt was the famous twelfth ceotion of the platform, which we reproduce an- nexed:— XII. The American party having arisen upon the ruins, and in spite of the oppcsition of the whig and democratic parties, caanot be held in any manner responsio.e for the cbncxious acts or violated pledges of either. And the systematic ogitation ef the slavery question by those Faities having elevated secticnal hostility iuto a posi- tive element of political power, and brought our institu tions into peril, it has therefore become the imperative duty otthe American party to interfere, tor the purpose cf givirg peace to the country and perpetuity to the Union, And as experience has shown it 1mpossible to re- cosci'e opinions 80 extreme as those which separate tue ob putante, ond os there cau be no dishonor in submit. ting te the laws, the Na'ional Council has deemed it the best guarantee of commen justice aud of future peace to abide by and maintain the existing laws upou the sub- ject of slavery, asa final and conciusive settlement of that eubject, in spirit acdin substance. ‘And avowing it the highest duty to avow their opin- ions upen a sudject co important, fo distinct and unequi- vocal terms, it is hereby declared as the sease of this National Council that Congress pdtsesses no power, un- cer the constitution, to legisiate upon the subject of slavery in the States where it cobs or may exist, or to ex- clude any State from admission into the Union because its constitution dies or does not recognize the institution of slavery ax a part of its social system; and expressly pietermitting any expreszion of «pinion upon the power ef Copgiess to estabdiich or probinit avi J in by Terri- tory, it is the eense of the National Council that Congress ought not to legislate upon the su’ ject of slavery within the Territories of the United States, and that aay inter- ference by Congress with slavery as it exists in the Dis- triet of Columbia would be a violation of the spirit and intention of the compact by which the State of Maryland ceced the Mstrict to the United 8 ates, and a breach of ‘the national fai h. The Council that met to-day, then, has for its primary 0} ject the consideration of the request made by the Cincin- nati Council to rtrike out the twelfth seciion altogether, and re-aflirm the rest ef the platform. I have seen to day many of the brethren who were leaders of the Cin- cinpati Counci). ‘The Council to nomina'e a President and Vice-President of the United States is called to meet on Friday, the 224 of Februasy. The present affair is therefore a sort of prelude to {he grand drama. The first notice here, for the assembling of the Grand Council, that struck my eye, is the following, which was posted up in the Girard House this morning :— QO OEE ON a CU OULELELILE IIE DEDOLESONI DEA TEDETOIODE. $ NOTICE, 3 THE NATIONAL COUNCIL 3 Will meet at FRANKuIN HAUL, 1 SIXTH StRET, NRAR ARCH, — 3 ‘At 12 o’clcck, this day.

POLN OO aL OLE RATIO EE OOEOANANEIIOEDARDOE DELON ‘The reason of this differerce of opinion as to time 8 somewhat enveloped in the mystery which this party throws around all its movements; but, as you are al- ready aware, the Know Nothings in this State have a split cn the argger question, and there are naw two State Coun cils, each claiming to be regular. The Counsil which rest upen the platform adopted last June, and generally called the rational platform, mects in Franklin Hall; the other Lails from Reading. The firet call, as above given, is supposed to have emanated from the Reading brothers. The President of the Grand Council, E. B. Bartlett, of Kentucky, not having yot arrived, {t devo:ved upon the Vice President to fix a time and place for the meeting of the Council, which was done in the second call. It will ‘be noticed that the President, in his call, mentions no tice, and only particularizes Philadeiphia, Now Phila- celphis, since it has been consolidated, is « very large ard respectable manufactusing town, extending over severa] square miles of territory, and Brother Bartlett's prociamation was consequently somewhat vague and in- Gistinet. Things were thus placed ina rather queer position. The State Council of Pennsylvania was bound, according to custom, to find a place for the meeting of the Grand Ccuncil. But bere were two bodies, beth claiming to be ‘She’ State Council of Penneyivania, and which wa regular could not be decided until the Grand Council should meet end decide upon which set of delegates to admit, It was en 1 state of things, and one which required & greig deal of consideration on the part of the brothers t@ setile, Agreat many thought thatas the President bad called the Couneil to mest at a certain day, that {t meant noon cn the dey, and the Vice President in the hope that his chief might arrive in the mesntime, fixed the hour at three, After # good deal of discussion, pro and con, a large number of brothers made @ break for Franklln Ball, about noon. Some hundred delegates and fifty or sixty out’ siders were present. Among them I notice1 Dr. Benusts, Mr. Squires, Jas, W. Barker, Dr. Woodward and Am- brose Stevens, of New York; Rev. Joseph A. Se>vlile, 0° New Jersey; A.B. Ely, Mr. Sumner and &. M. Alien, of Masrachusetts; Aibert Pike, of Arkansas; Mr. Spooaer, President of the State Council of Ohio; Cyl. Bolling, o/ Virgioia; Mr. Gist, of Kentucky; Mz. Booth, of Connec ticut; Mr. Danenhower, of Miinots, and namerous others None of the reguiar officers were present. On motion, Mr. Sheets, of Indiana, was called to the chair, Mr. Sia7s was a prominent memter of the Ciacinnat Council, alluded to above. He ascenied the platform, and addreesed the delegates, saying -— Gentlemen of the Courcil—{ am exceotingty obliged to you for the honor you have conferred u9on me, in cauling we to procide temporari'y over the deliberations ot your body. There has been seme misunderstanding as to cur time and place of meoting, in consequences ot the abeerce of the Fresident. but that will come up in due course and be properly set Uhope that I mey be allowed to express, at the same time, my desice that the deliberations ot this body may te carrie! on to that spirit cf union, harmony and concilia tua whith only can lead to perfect success. (Loud applause.) We have met bere with heavy duties and high responsibuitiey, and it is only by a prompt performance of those duties and by waking mutual couciliations, that we can hove to triumph ove: be formicable toe that will appear cext fall. Teay to ycu, men of the South, that you most be prepares to give up rome of your pecullsr fess tor the North, aud 1 say to you, men of the North, that you mast be prepared to forego some hing f.r the South Leane fiom the West. 'know that my efforts will be given in accordance with the sentiments I speak here to-day. Unless we cap all’act in accordance with these seatimeata, we shall be overwhelmed by our enemies. ‘The speaker continued in the same stzain for a few minutes longer, when Mr. AMpRose SrevEys, of New York, moved that this council do now (half-past twelve) adjourn till three o’clock this afternoon, Mr. Gist, of Kentucky, moved to amend, by substitut- ing ten o’clock in the motion. (Cries of ‘No,’ No,” “Good,” &e.) A DeixGATr moved that the Chair appoint a committee to telect a place of meeting tor the Grand Council. A motion was made that Mr. Edie, of Pennsylvania, act as Secretary to this convention, This nomination was received with covsiderable dls‘a- vor; and Mr, Pike, of Arkansas, said, “Good God Where are your national men}? Mr. Edie is .Secretary of the Reading (1's ) Council, which bedy ignores the 12th section. A DetucAre guid that the person named was not # mem- ber of this ccurcil, Anotter said it was a trap tocatch the couxcil. He said there were two State Counails ia Pennsylvania, cach of which had sent a delegation to this council, At some future time it would be competent for the Council to pass up2n the question as to which Celegation should be admitte’, This motion yas made for the purpose of entrapping the Couccil iato an expression of opinion before the prop-r tune, After a few more warm remarks from various dele- gates, showing that there was rather a caustic alaposi. tion onthe part of the two Penosyivania delegations, the matter was dropped. dir. StevENS had modified his motion to adjourn to read thus:—When we adjourn we adjourn to meet to- morrow morning, at ten o'clock.’ This was opposed dy at least two-thirds of the members present; and, al- though the Ctairman wished to stop debate, to appoint a ecmmittee, it was with some Cifficulty he could do so. Mr. Stevexs, after some consultation with his brother delegates, withdrew his motion, and pressed another, to adjourn till three in the afternoon. Although this motion was not debateable, severalmem- bers sj rang to their feet, on pointe of order and other pleasantries, The Chair, however, managed to lay down the parliamentary law; and Mr. Stevens’ motion having been so amended, the questien was put upon the smend- ment to a¢journ till to morrow at ten. Themoes had it evidently, and the ayes gave it up without a count. The rain question was then put and agreed to, and the Coun cil adjourned till three, AFTERNOON SESSION. , The Council met wt three o’clock—Mr, Suxem, of In diara, in the chair. Mr. Boutin moved to adjourn, and made a few re marks, urgieg union, harmony and copeiliation, Mr. Goserer, cf Pennsylvania, from the committee on the subject, reported that the Sansom Street Hall had Leen engaged for the future meetings of the Council. The Council then adjourned, to meet at the place abcve named, tc-morrow morning, at ten o'clock. OUTSIDE GOSSIP, ETC. Although the preseat meeting of the Couneil {s not for the purpore of mabirg @ nomination; and, although the exciting question which will come up batore this Coancil wil give it enoug to do for several duys to come, yet the canvarsing for delegates by the fiends of Law ana Fillmore is constant, active, vigorous, sharp aod energe- tic, The hotels cn Che tnut street are jubilant with the voices of the several partisans, and a complete nar. rative of all the dodges resorted to would fil! many columns, The Law man will teil you that thee is no possible doubt as to the success of Live ak George, while the Fillmore men think the soge of Exfe county has a sure thing.

Some of the Fillmore men are in favor of Mr. Gentry, of Tenressee, for Vioe Presi- cent, but the whole West wiil be sgainst this.

There some hope that Broadway might have been cleared, but it is now a hoye deferred. Speaking of Broadway reminds us of the fact that it is now a greater nuisance than it was when Commissioner Ebling commenced the construe. tion of an ice ridge in the middle of the street. Then it was possible for stages to move on somebow, but yesterday conveyances were detained for haif hours and hours ata time, for if any acciaent ocourred to one omnibus or cart, all behind were stopped and miles of stages, wagons, sleighs, carriages and carts might be seen waiting for the hindrance to be removed. ‘This is not a emall matter, as thousands of persous were put to serious inconveniences by it.

A Naw Pray st THe Broapway—‘ Hisavs, tax Howrae.'* The Broadway theatre was literally jammed last night from parquette to dome, upon the oceasiva of the presem- tation of a new play upon those boards, called “ Herme, the Hunter.’’ Not only all the seats of the theates Were occupied, but through the aisles the audience steo@ Packed together like sardines ina tin bor. This play ts 4sort ot a hodge-pedge of love, madness and wonderful feats, and scenery, and stage effect. It is dramatic from Ainsworth’s Romance of Windsor Castle, by N. B Clark, and done up in four acts. We cannot assy macs for the plot of this play, Herne, the Hunter, according to the story, was a forest keeper, in the time of Richard ML; and being hung ia the wood, mear Windsor Castle his »pirit cominued to haunt the plage down even to the time of Henig VIII., the period in which he is presemt- édin the production, This was a reckless aud daring spirit, and in both day and night was accustomed to ridew Worderful steed, that would dive through flawos ané stone walls, leap bridges and astonish the world with other feats that favored of brimstone and the lowe: regions. It was the fashion for the nobles of that day, wno wanted to get upa reputation for bravery, to awoar they would capture this hunter, or perish in tie att 4 and this, at different “mes, leads to a chase upon atege, ia which Herne dashes amid the scenery on the black charger, regardless of consequences, followed by lords and robles who are also mounted,’ bu: who ere much more careful in their movemen’s; aud theze hunts are the points of the whole piece. In the first ac: Hemry VII, is cn the journey for Windaor Castle, and a proces- sion crosses the stage, ia which are twenty-four mounted horsemen, caparisoned in all raphernaiis of royal in the time of King Hal. T. is ia the first spectacle, whi in screethirg novel, because of the horses introducot, but in other respects it is nothing to boast of In ths sesond act the poiut is the Duks of Richmond and Kart cf Surrey in pursvit of Herne, who, ‘afer several turns across the stags, at full’ run,’ finally leape ever the urch of a broken bridge.
