A good deal of excitement was ereated in the Cabinet to-day, in consequence of an article which appeared in the London Morming Post of February 12, proposing an alliance betwecn England and France to suppress Ameri can filibustering; and the article proposes also the pro- priety of increasing the fleets of England and France in be vicinity of Central America, and to pet in force the right of search of all suspected Amertcan vessels, in the same macner as ft is exercived in the case of African slavers. This is looked on as more significant from the act that the Post is regarded here as the organ of Lord Palmerston. The Cabinet hada protracted session te- dey, when the article above referred to received their attention, The Committee on Elections will, I understand, re port o-morrow on the Kansas contested election case. The report, written by Mr. Hickman, of Penn., one of the commitiee, is quite lengthy. They will renew their de- mand for power to send for persons and papers. It as- umes that the allegation on the part of Gov. Reeder that the Legislature which passed the eloction law, un- dor the provisions of which Gen, Whitfield was chosen, was imposed upon the people of the Territory by a fo- reigo invading force, who seized upon the government and have exercised it ever since—that the people are ins subjected Siate. it then goes on to discuss at length the following questions:—First, The neceastty of having an investigation of the facts in dispute. Second, The eflect of the act of Governor Reeder in issu- ing certificates of election to a portion of the Legisiature. Third, whether the evideace to estab- lish the facts can behad by depositions, Inthe course of ‘be argument the committee allude to the fact that ord{- nerily, in despotisms, the eudjects enjoy wome degree of peace and quiet, while in Kaneas settlers are not only al- lowed to be reduced to a state of vassalage to foreign power, but personal afety is unknown, and murder and outrage are said to be an almost daily record of history. A minority report will, [ am informed, be made by Mr. Stephens, of Georgia. Chevalier Webb is out in this morning’s Intelligencer with a long letter, containing a history of that soiree at Lord Clarendon’s, That tea party will yet be the death of toe Chevalier, ‘The report of the Naval Committee, recommending the buildivg of ten additional steam sloops of war, gave rise toa spicy debate in the Senate to-day, as to what will be thought of it in England and France. D. THE CONTESTED BLECTION CASES—RUMORED DIS- MISSAL OF MR. CRAMPTON. Wasnincton, March 3, 1856. The discussion on Judge Trumbull’s case, involving « conflict between the federal and fifteen State constitu- tions, is eliciting the profoundest attention of the Senate’ The Committee on Elections have refused to hear Gen. Whitfield in reply to Reeder’s statement. They say they bave nothing to do withgWhitfield statements. It is, “Heads I win, tails you loose.’” Rumor this evening says that Mr, Crampton has been dismissed. I can trace it to no reliable source. E €HIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS. FIRST BESSION. Senate. Wasurxaton, March 3, 1856. GENERAL CASS AND LOBD CLARENDON. Me. Cass, (¢em.) of Mich., made @ personal explana- tion in relation to an article im to-day’s Intelligencer; signed J. W. W., which he attributed to James Watson Webb. It reiates toa conversation between Mr. Webb and Lord Clarendon, in which the latter stated he had no unfriendly feelings towarda the United States. This statement was explavatory of a remark made by Ciarendon in the House of Lords, that the understanding between the Enghsh and French governments was perfect in relation to all parts of the world—which was understood as a menace to this country regarding Cuba. Mr. asked, it Lord Clarendon’s lang: had been misunderstood, why did he not explain it in his place in the Houseof Lords instead of leaving it to be explained ina private letter, which few perhaps would see or hear of ' PROPOSED INCREASK OF THE NAVY. The bill authorizing the construction of ten sloops of war was taken up. Mr. Sewarp referred to several periods of our history— from the affair of the Carolino to the late dispu.e in r¥- gard to the fisheriee—to show that the appearance of a single British vessel had feghtened the country into a fear of impending war. He said he was tired of all these things, and wished the people, especially the merchanta of our commercial cities, to discuss questions of national interest without being alarmed, through fear of the in- ability of our government to maintain them in their pro- perty, rights and interests. He would vote for this in- crease oi the navy, irrespective of any question in regard to our foreign relations, simply because he thought it wrong to leave the seaboard exposed, and because there #ever had been a time so prosperous as the present, when, without any alteration of our revenue system, we are receiving an immense surplus revenue. Mr. Hatz thought it absurd to underteke to put our navy on a footing to eompete with those of other coun- tries, It reminded him of # legacy ot £10 Lie Chea by an Englishman to pay the national debt. If there was apy apprehension of war, it originated in Congesssional speeches. It time to economize expenditures. Mr. Brit, (national) of Tennessee, said the bill was unanimously recommended by the Naval Committee, and not founded on any existingalarm on the subject of war. The obyect was merely a class of vessels really necessary for the protection of commerce. Mr. Hunter, (dem-) of Va., believed that the matters of difference between Great Britain and the United States were auch as ought to be settled, if common discretion is exercised. The passage of the bill should not create a joe xe Fierdired oe of pence by prepar- ing for war—thun diminishing the opportur foreign Powers to speculate on our weakness, real or suj was passed. ‘The estimated cont of each vensel is $507,000, including equipment and steam machisery. .Two millions are now appropriated. THE TRUMBULL ELBCTION CASE Was considered. Mr. CritrenpEN, (K.N.,) of ae favored Mr, Trumbull’s right to the seat, stating that the constitution of the United States defines the qualifications of Senators, and no State has authority to require any other quaiifica- ions. Mr. Puan, (dem.,) of Ohio, contended that the plain and obvious meaning of the St constitution should govern the question. The State @ right to require any qualification it pleased, so | as there was no con- aa ries ‘the constitution of the United States. yarn House of Representatives. Wasnincton, March 8, 1856.

Dismissal of Foreign Ministers—Hislory of the Very Curious Case of Sir Henry Bulwer. The recall of Mr. Crampton, Brith Minister te the United States, has been demanded by our government; if that demand is not complied with his dismisss) is likely [J follow. Ass consequence, the public mind is at this BH me deeply interested in ali questions pertaining to the removal of foreign ministers, The incidents attending the removal of Sir Henry Bulwer, while British Minister in Spain, are very striking in themselves, and have many points of resemblance to the case of Mr. Crampton. We believe our readers will welcome a full account ot this memorable transaction, which we have taken some pains to collect from authentic sources, both English ani Spanish. The great and agitating subject of discussion among the European courts in 1846, was the question of the marriage of Isabella, the youthfal Queen of Spain. The Spanish oonstitutionalista were anxi- ous to secure the succession in her line, so as to consummate the exclusion of the family of Don Carlos, Of course the legitimiste in Spain and the legitimate gov- erpments in Europe sought to prevent it for the oppo- site inducement. But the main struggle on the subject was between Great Britain and France, whore rival inte- rests and conflicting intrigues at Madrid bave, for more than acentury, been the principal causeof all the ca- Jamities, political and commercial, of unhappy Spain. In the affair of the marriage, the object of England was to foree a Coburg upon Isabella; that of France to marry her to one of the sons of Louis Phillipp*- The King of the French did not prevail in his fits: pian, but he suo. oveded in marrying his son, the Dake of Montpensier, to Isabella's sister and heir presumptive, and in marrying tha Queen to her cousin, the Infant Don Franciseo, This pave mortal nmbrage to England, She pretended that Fran- cisco was impotent, and that thus the happiness as well as the rights of Igabelia were cruelly aaorificed to the rapa, ciows ambition of Louis Phillippe, It is by nomeana certain that this fact did not contribute to Louis Phillippe’s down - fall; nor that Exglish ufluemes and English gold were not among the efficient causes hidden from th» public eye, of that sudden and mysterious revolution which drove him from the throne; as they were reasonably suspected to have ersentially aided in producing the previous Frenc revolution, which overthrew Charles the Tenth, just at the moment when, in spite of the jealous and angry oppo- sition of England, he had scoomplished the conquest o! Algiers. The French revolution of February aroused a revolu- tionary spirit in half the kingdoms of Europe. The pro visional government of France despatched emissaries of insurree|ion into the neighbering countries. Sanguinary revolutions broke out in Germany, Italy, and Hungary. Even Great Briain was filled with alarm, and had re. course to the most severe measures of repression both in Eng)and and in Ireland. In the midst of the general atorm, Spain, the country to which everybody in Europe was secustomed to look as the most probable theatre of revolutions, whenever the revolutionary spirit vas abroad, consistent in her cha racteristic evntradiction to the cumrse ef other govern- ments, remained perfectly tranquil uader the frm but mocerate administration of Geuers! Narvaez. It was in a flagttious attempt to produce # revolution in Spain, in this Kuropean crisis, ander the direction of Lord Palmerston, at that time the British Minister of Fo" reign Affairs, that Sir Henry Bulwer drew upon himsolf that just indignation of the Spasish government which jed to his summary expulsion from Madrid. At the foundation oi Sir Henry Buiwer’s insolent inter- ference in the domestic affairs of Spain, is a letter of Lord Palmerston, 60 iliustrative ot the iatensity of England's relfighners and her consequent disregard of the rights and feelings of other nations, that we give it in full! — Forxian Orricg, March 16, 1848, Sm—TI have to instruct you to recommend earnestly to the Spanish goverument and to the Queen Mother, if you have an opportunity of doing so, the nae. of f legal and constitutional course of government in Spain. The recent tail of the of the French and of his whole family, and the expulsion of his ministers, ought to teach the Spanish court and government how great is the danger of an attempt to goverm a country in a man- ner at variance with the feelings and opinions of the na- tion; and the catastrophe which has happened in France must serve to show that evens pam at well cisciplin- ed bar: | becomes an in for the crown when the course pursued by the crown ia at variance with the general sentiments of the country. It would then be wire for the Queen of , in the present criti- cal state of affairs, to the executive govern- ment by ealereing the basis upon which the administra- tion is founded, and by calling to her councils some of those men who possess the contidence of the liberal party. T am, &c. PALMERSTON. Remarkable as this letter is in itself, it is still more ex- traordinary when considered with reference to the con- dition of things existing at the time it was written in Engiand and Spain. In Spain, as we have already said, everythirg wore ita usual, quiet. England, on the oon- trary, was shaking with apprehension lest her own proud throne should be tumbled over as suddenly and as un- ceremoniously as Louis Phillippe’s had fallen. At that very moment, among the extreme measures to which she had resorted was the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus in Ireland. And, forsooth, she presumes, under these circumstances, to lecture tranquil Spain to con- sult the wishes of the nation in the administration of her government. More fittingly, it would seem, might she have asked the disinterested advice of Spain how to ad- muvister her own. But if the relative condition of the two countries had been reversed—if England had been tranquil and un- moved by fear, and Spain had been in the greatest disor- der, nothing could surpass the insolent presumption of Lord Palmerston in advising the Spanish government to adopt # legal and censtitutional course of administration, thue necessarily implying that the present one was ille- gal and unconstitutional; and his cool effrontery in auggestirg that her course of government was at variance with the general sentiments of the country, But the climax of impudence is attained by the conclud- ing instruction that Sir Henry Bulwer shall call upon the Queen of Spain and advise her to change her ministers. The instructions given to Mr. Crampton to enlist recruits for the British army in the United States partake largely of the same spirit; but we may more keenly appreciate the extent to which the English government sometimes goes minstracting her ministers to interfere with domestic affairs of other countries, by supposing Mr. Crampton substituted for Bir Henry Bulwer, and instructed, not as he was, to violate the municipal law and the law of na- tions by enlisting men, but to call upon Gen. Pierce and recommend to him to remove the present members of his Cabinet and appoint some leading anti-slavery men in their stead—that Gov. Chase should succeed to Mr. Mar- cy, Gen. Robinson to Gen. Jefferson Davis, and Charles Sumner to Mr. Attorney General Cushing. These instructions reached Sir Henry Bulwer on the 2st of March, 1848. They were not presented to the Spanish government immodiately; but Sir Henry entered at once into relation with the agitators in Madrid, and even attended some of their secret meetings. On the 26th an insurrection broke out in Madrid. It was promptly suppressed by Gen. Narvaez, on account, aa Sir Henry Bulwer wrote to Lord Palmerston on the 28th, of the want of concord and of general’ orders tor the di- rection of the conspirators. Not content with parading publicly his personal association with the insurgents, and with receiving them at the embassy for the purpose of embarrasting the government, he published his instruc- tions from Lord Palmerston, almost word for word, in the Clamor Publico, the principal oppesition newspaper in Madrid, before making any officlatoommunication of them to the Spamsh Minister of Foreign Affairs. At length, on the 6th of April, he communicated his inatructions to the Duke of Sotomayor, the Spanish Mi- nister, and, as if the instructions themselves were not of- fensive enough, he aggravated their enormity by arro- gantly calling on the Spanish government to invoke without delay a special session of the Cortes. The reply of the Duke of Sotomayor was worthy of the blood of his American mother, and of bis distinguished father, the Marquis ot Cassa Yrujo. After saying that he disdains to comment on the suggestions of Sir Henry Bulwer’s note, he, on the contrary, retorts them on the British government itself. “What,” he demands, “would Lord Palmerston say if the Spanish government should pretend to criticise the administrative acts of the British ministry—to recommend a modification of their faterior poticyand especially the adoption of mare hu- ™mane and enlightened measures towards miserable Ire- land? What would he say if the Spanish Minister at London should address an imperious note to Lord Pal- meraton himself, demanding the relinquishment of tt extra constitutional means adopted to prevent or sup- press insurrection in England and in Ireland? Wha® would he say if the Spanish government should, in the name of outraged humanity, demand of him justice and mercy fer the oppressed millions of Hindostan? What would he say if the Spanish government should underé dertake to exhort the Queen of Engiand to recall to her councils the illustrious Sir Robert Peel, who, unlixe Lord Palmerston, had not only acquired the general favor of opinion in his own country, but was able also to oon- ciliate the sympathies and esteem of all the governments of Europef?” He concluded by returning to Sir Henry Bulwer his let- ter, and informing him that any other communication of the same character would be returned without response. Sir Henry was confounded by this manly conduct of the Spanish government. He replied ina letter of embar- assed and clumsy explanations, which only made his case worse, and which afforded the Duke of Sotomayor the opportunity, in return, to take ‘up and expose, step by step, im cutting language, all the previous mideeds o Sir Henry. Sir Henry Bulwer became alarmed, aad com- municated his fears to Lord Palmerston, who disregarded them, and on the 20th of April direcved him to inform the Duke of Sotomayor that all his proceedings wore ap proved by his government, and stated expressly that they had the approval of the entire Cavinet—an assertion which was afterwards flatly contradicted by the Marquis of Lansdowne in the House of Lords. Meanwhile, on the 16th of April the Duke of Soto- meayor directed Mr. Isturitz, Spanish Minister in London, wo represent to Dord Palmerston the necesstty and conve- nience of recalling Sir Henty Buiwer. Instead of doing this, Lord Faimersten renewed his approvation to Sir Herty, of bis conduet, aad informed him that his con- tinued presence was necessary at Madrid. Jt io curious coincidence that, a ia orsdibly reported at Washington, Mr. Crampton stated two days after he recetved from Lord Clarendon a copy of Mr. Marcy’s last, long despatch, demancing his recal!, that he had also re- ceived instructions from his government that his con- tinued presence In Washiog!on was required, Ax to Sir Henry Bulwer, he had not yet done his ap- pointed work, and must therefore sty to do it; wad with the new s‘imalus given him by Lord Palmerston he cid i. On the 7th of May a portion of the garrisan of Ma- drid broke out in rnsurrescion, which was only Suppress ed in blood. Among the bi'led was the Captam General, wh commanded the forces of the govermment, ‘Bho leaders of the insurrection ismed from the English em- , and were supplied with money and prompted by the ‘Ambaseacor. ‘The next day the Duke of Sotomayor, in a letter of cold courtesy, invited Sir Henry Bulwer to quit Madrid within the term of twenty-four hours. Sir Henry replied with affectation that in fact his resi- denoe at Madrid had come to be dissgreeable to him, and that he should avail himself sooner or later, but at his leisure, of the passports which the Duke of Sotomayor had been pleased to transmit. ‘The apparent indifference and confidence on the part of the British Minister, thus caught flagranti delicto were at first quite incomprehensible; but the mystery was som explained. Ina few days accounts came to the Spanish ment from the Basque provinces, trom Valencia, from Cartnsgena, from Murcia, from ‘Alicante, from Seville, of insureetionary movements, which it was after- wards wed were with the cognizance asd encourage- ment of Sir Henry Bulwer, if not at his instigation. Among the circumstances i mplicating Sir Henry Bul- wer, was the fact that Portal, one of the most active of the insurgents, was, to quote an authority before us, ‘tho brother-in-lew of Sir’ Henry by the heart and ths alcove,” “for,” he continues, ‘we cannot understand Spanleh politics without occasionally raising the corner of wmantills.” Portal not only protested that he scted in the name of England, but, proof of the fact, ex- hibited the vory letters of Sir Hanry. Narvaez, with his accustomed vigor and forecast, had prepared for all auch contingencies. He suppressed the revolutionary movements as promptly im the provinces as he bad done in the cay Sir Henry Bulwer found that the game was lost. His affectation of indifference these subsequent events had fully explained, The conflagration which he had raised, Tasted ba. bos > wees throw light on the hand of the ineendiary. had confidently expected that the revo- lution would be successful, and that he himself should remain at Madrid, not asthe British Minister only, but as the director of the Spanish government. He did not atop for any further invitations to quit Madrid; but with a suddenness too great, perchance, for some leave takings, he terminated his inglorious mission and left the country. The conduct of Sir Henry Buwer and of Lord Palmers- tom was regarded in England with great disfavor, and would have been disastrous to Lord Palmerston but for the generous interposition of Sir Robert Peel to prevent the adoption by Parliament of a resolution of censure im reference to his instructions to Sir Henry. The English government made some little exhibition of iN humor towards Spain on account of this affair, and the diplomatic relations of the two countries were interrupt- ed for @ brief period. Tore it ended, greatly to the cro- dit of Gen. Nervaez—as the Crampton affair must end to the credit of the Americsn government, Lesture on the Character of Washington, by Hon. Edward Everett. Hon, Edward Everett delivered bis lecture on the oha_ racter of Washington, before the Mercantile Library As_ sociation, last evening, in th Academy of Music. It was but natural to expect the fame of the lecturer would attract a large audience, but we were not prepared to see such a vast concourse assembled within, and even without the walls of that building. According to the Published, notice the lecture was,to commence at 8 o'clock, but for at least an hour before the appointed time the doors were beset with an eager crowd, who in thelr impa- tience actually tore two or three off their hinges. The par- quette was crowded, the first tier was crowded, the se- cond tier was crowded, the third tier was crowded, 40 was they gallery, so were the stage boxes, the orchestra was jammed full, and the passages were all blockaded, while the entrances. were thronged with eager listeners anxious to hear # word of the lecture, or to get a glimpse of the lecturer.

It was cor of New AD one of ly ¢ 7 speakers of whom our country can boast, and a compli- rent which, im justice to the orator of the evening, we must was well deserved. Mr. Everett was equal both to subject and the occasion, and the deep and breathless interest with which his auaience hung upon his every word was the strongest proof of his success. At times Le was interrupted by bursts of applause that eat the building, and then again all was still and silent as the grave, When the hour arrived he wat introduced to the audi- ence by Mr. George C. Wood, the President of the Mer- cantile Library Association, and was received with the most ari igerys wees Lage pial in ‘s plain si lack, ed no jet description. During the whole of his jecture, which oo. cupied pearly two hours in its delivery, he bad not occa- sion even once to refer to his notes. His manner and style is unimpassioned, and the most brilliant passages are delivered without the slightest enthusiasm. In this respect Mr. Everett does not do full justice to himself, a less classic or eloquent speaker would produce a still greater effect with the lecture to which we listened Jast evening. The lecture was, as its title announced, on “the Char- acter of Washington,”’ thegroat man ‘‘whom Providence left childless, that a nation might eali him Father.’ It was a splendid oulogy and, at the same time, an accurate portraiture of the virtues and great qualities of the pa- ee bag dpa parr tears ely iepiony: on rer, not only great as he was yut he was great because’ he was good, and he believed, as firmly as he did his own existence, that it was a part of the ot Pro- vidence to raire him to be the commander of the armies of the Revolution fand to be the first President of the United States, to prove to the people of America, in the morning of {their existence asa nation, that just laws, could be best conducted, and governments be administer: ed by men of pure moral principles.

OF THE PLENIPOTENTURINS, Pe ko. @ Our London Correspondence. Lonpon, Feb. 15, 1856. The Peace Conferences at Paris—The Misunderstanding with Washington—New English Loan—Stale @& the British Navy—Fmpress of Austria Enceinte. ‘The Peace Conferences at Paris and the misunderstend- ing with the government at Waahington continue te absorb publie attention to the exclusion of everything else, As regarda the first, before thia reaches you the Com: ference at Paris will have actually commenced. Witla the exception of Ali Pasha, who is on his way, all the Plenipotentiaries will have reached Paris to-day, some, including Brunow, having already arrived. Lord Cow- ley is over here to receive instructions, and will reture with Lord Clarendon. Prussia is doing all she can to be allowed to participate: There is only one argument in favor of her admission, amd that is, that if an important treaty is drawn up settling the boundaries and relative positions, political as well as geographical, it would be just as well that Prussia saould be bound like the other Powers, which ahe wil not be if she does not sign, or if she 1s excluded from par- tielpating in the negotiations. At the same time, it would be a severe chastisement to her pride to refuse her admittance to an European Congress. You will see, by a despatch from Baron Manteuffel, which I enclose, that Prussia has declared her willingness to sign the preliaat- naries, and that she claims to herself the credit of having effectually contributed toward the acceptance by Russia of the Austrian proposals, by giving her advice exactig atthe turn of the tide. Like Moses in Egypt, Manteaffiel thinks he will take over his Prussians on dry groum@, whilst the chariots of that great Pharoah, public opinion, will be swamped in the attempt to follow him, Now, mind you, peace is by no means concluded yet. France and Austria, and even Turkey, desire peace. Russia will insist on not sacrificing too much. England, I believe, would sooner have another Baltic campaign; but is quite willing to sign an honorable peace. I canmot give yous better specimen of the real feeling in Kagiand than by quoting Palmerston’s reply to Mr. Ewart, im the. Commons, as to whether it will be lawful to despatch Bri- tish ships with cargoes to Russian porta during thé ar- mistioe which is about to be concluded, and, im that case, would articles contraband of war—such as brim- stone, lead and saltpetre—be exempt from such permis- SRRIVEL &., Lord Paimeraton replied :— wit vengee ge th vuch undertaking’ ab aro desert e in su jer as my honorable friend’s question, to ‘wait until they ther an armistice is concluded; and, if 80, what are nature and conditions of that armistice. (Cheers laughter.) To turn now to the misunderstanding with the gevera ment of Washington, You have already before you Palmerston’s statement in reply to Cobden, in which he said the question respecting Central America had been referred to arbitration. As regards the secand point— the enlistment question—I cannot do better than quote, asan expression of public feeling here, the following ex tract from a leading article of the Times :— With equal frankness did the British Premier point out the incidents of the second dispute. We are threat- pond officially by means of @ consul, or, at most, a se- pies st harm may cessation of diplomatic activity, but the cause of this mutual interdict, and not the thing itself, is of importance. Such an interruption is generally 1 as approaching nearly to a state of nostility, In fact, im such & case everything has been done which usually pre- cedes the first irrevocable blow—tne great letting out of the waters of strife. The House then listened with at- tention to the words of the First Minister. He stated i ald regulations ct the States or violate the laws of the Union, Heacded, moreover, that when {t was found this enlistment might oause offence to the American goverm- ment and people, orders were given for its cessation, and y remonstrance was received. When offi- cial representations were made complaining of an alleged infringement of American law, the British government a here its regret at once and without reserve. Lord Palmerston thus explicitly stated that his first did all that House of . The temper of the roment and tie national re tatives was fully evinced at this sit- tog.
