News from al} parts of the world was received yesterday. News from Europe, from Asia, from South America, from Central America, from Austra” lia, from the West Indies. From Central America we have stirring news in- @eed. An important and brilliant victory has been won by General Walker, over the Costa Ricans, at Rivas. The prestige of the American name, which had been tarnished by the shameful conduct of Schlessinger, is restored. On the 7th inst. the Costa Ricans occupied Rivas with two thousand men. On the llth, Walker, with six hundred men, attacked them. After a fight of nearly eighteen hours duration, he was, for want of ammunition, compelled to withdraw, leaving six hundred of the enemy dead upon the field, and a large number wounded. Walker's loss was estimated at less than one hundred. Several other engagements had taken place, with equally decisive results. In the mean- time, Guatemula, Honduras and San Salvador not only remain neutral in the struggle, but have exhibi- ted every wish for the re-establishment of peace. Before anether month it may fairly be anticipated that a succession of victories simi- Jar to that at Rivas will enable the Nica- vaguan leader to penetrate into the very heart of the enemy’s country. Once establishe1 there, his army will be reinforced by thousands of his countrymen. The reputation which this extraordinary man has won at so early a period of his career has been so fully Justified by bis conduct under the recent difficult cir- umstances in which he has been placed, that he is now generally regarded as the chosen instrament of Providence to work out the regeneration of Central America. Under his banners, Anglo-Saxon energy and daring will soon subjugate the fickle and ener- vated population of that beautifal region. Other circumstances appear just now to fivor the grand political scheme which he has in view. The dread- fol riot at Panama, during which between twenty and forty Americans were cruelly massacred, and moch valnable property destroyed, of which we pup- ligh full details elsewhere, has occurred opportunely to prepare men’s minds for any measures, no matter how extreme, that he may choose to adopt. After this affair it will no longer be tolerated that the lives and property of American citizens shall be exposed to the bloodthirsty and rapacious attacks to which they have been exposed from time to time, in their pas- sage across the Isthmus. If we wish to secure a free communication with our territories on the Pa- cific coast, we must take into our owa hands the possession of the highways leading to them. is for this reason that we look upon the success General Walker as so many important step: made to- wards that object. One of the most important features of the news from Central America is the intercepted correspondence of the British govern- ment with the government of Costa Rica. The former, it appears, has formally tendered the latter, not only sympathy, but two thousand stand of arms, and other aid equally desirabie. A British frigate Bies at anchor in the harbor of San Juan, watching the movements of the Americans, and forcibly pre- venting them from going on shore. What course will Mr. Marcy adopt in the conjuncture? The steamship Persia arrived at this port yester- @ay, from Liverpool, after a fine passage of ten days and one hour, being one of the four quickest voyages between the two ports on record. As this trip of the Persia will in all probability create considerable discussion, we give below the dates, time, &c., with reference to the short passages alluded to, as fo'} Jows:— 1861. pool.

The affairs of Italy, so far from being amicably eettled by the Plenipotentiaries, are Hikely, as it will be seen, to breed further political troubles. Austria is determined to cccupy every part of the Italian States that she can find an excuse for sending troops to, in order to annoy and insult the government of Sardinia. This, however, isa @angerous game, and may prove disastrous in the end for the Power undertaking it. We publish an interesting account of the banquet given hy the Lord Mayor of London to Mr. Dallas, ovr new Minister. ‘The speech of the latter seems to have created a very favorable impression: ard that of Lord Stanley, who 4s considered the most promising young statesman of the day, was energetic in its denunciations of those who might be disposed to do any thing to distarb the friendly relations of the two countries. The Ameri- can national airs were received at this dinner with almost Yankee enthusiasm. [nu the House of Peers, Lord Panmure explained, in reply to a question from Lord Elgin, that the report of an augmentation of the British forces in Canada originated solely in the fact that it was intended to send back there the vegiments that were taken from that part of the Queen's dominions for carrying onthe war. In the new reorganization of the army by brigades and divisions, it was possible that a small addition might be made to the number of troops in Canada, but the statement that this increase was for the purpose of aggression was entirely unfounded. Reports pre vaiied that Lord Palmerston and Mr. Labonobere were about to retire from the ministry, but there does not scem to be any serious foundation for them. We Jearn from Bogota, New Granada, that the veto of the chief executive of the republic on the pill for the abolition of capital punishment—pre viously noted as having passed both honses of Con grese—has been confirmed. General Mosquera had been elected Designado. Hews from Melyourme, Australia, to the Sth of l= NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL February, bas been received by the way of Callao and Panama. It gives improving accounts of the diggings, and announces considerable increase of interest in quarts mining. The price of gold at Melbourne was £3 lés. 3d. We have Rio Janeiro dates to March 17. Buei- ness was stagnant, owing to the scarcity of coffee. ‘The stock was quite limited. The shipment of thie article to the United States since January has been 105,600 bags—54,000 for the Channel, and 26,831 for the Mediterranean. The weather was dry, and large supplies of produce were shortly expected from the interior. The province was quiet and the port healthy. Advices from Havana to the 24th inst., report the health of the island good. The British ship of war Powerfal left port on that day, having a few cases of fever on board. The steamer Granada had ar- rived, and would leave for New Orleans on the arri- val of the Illinois from Aspinwall. Nothing of importance happened in either branch of Congress yesterday. In the House, Gen. Qaitman made a speech in favor of abolishing the neutrality laws. The proposition is certainly a novel one. The hard shell delegates and alternates to the d § mocratic National Convention met at Syracuse yee terday. A report of their proceedings is given un- der the telegraphic head. After a great amount of trouble in procuring the requisite number of jurors in the Baker case, the desired twelfth juror was achieved yesterday. But very little interest by the public seems to be mani- fested in this trial now. The District Attorney opened the case, and then examined two witnesses whose testimony was takon on the former trial); it was to the eame effect as that previously given. The Board of Ten Governors met yesterday, but adjourned over without transacting any business, on motion of Gov. Townsend, out of respect to the memory of Robert Kelly, Esq. There are 6,066 per sons in the institutions—a decrease since last week of 52. Another meeting of the nigger worshippers was held last evening in the Broadway Tabernacle, Benjamin F. Butler in te chair. An executive com- mittee of five was appointed to act as the Executive Committee of the republican party of the city of New York. A report of the proceedings will be found elsewhere. The European news by the Persia, received yet terday, imparted a firmer tone to cotton, wit out establishing any decided advance in prices, @ vise in Liverpool having been to some extent antic ¢ pated on this side. The sales embraced about 4,000 a 5,000 bales, part in transitu. The market closed firm, at about 11}c. for middling uplands. Flour was heavy, with a tendency towards lower prices, especially for inferior and common grades, Wheit —Sales of Tennessee red were made at $1 70, and fair white at $1 70 a $1 76. Corn, for prime white and yellow, was in better dc- mand, and at rather firmer rates. Mess pork acd vanced to $1950 a $19 75. Lard continued firm] for prime quality, at 10jc. About 900 hhds. and 150 boxes sugars were sold, at prices given else- where. Coffee was active, with sales of 5,000 bags Rio, at 1ljc.a lfc. A fair business was done in freights to Great Britain, without change of im- portance in rates.

Tcyerst OF How, Roskrt Ketty.—The faneral of Hon. Robert Kelly, late City Chamberlain, took place yester- day, at4P. M., fromthe churca of Dr. Hutton, Wash- ington square.

The news conveyed by the Ericsson was not of import- ance, its chief feature having been the postponpment of the debate on american affairs, until the retura of Lord Clazeadon from Paris, The Persia brings accounts of the lose of the Conferences; of a civic banquet given in Lon- éon to the American Minister; of Panmure’s explanation why troops are being sent to Oamads; of » mall defeat given to the government by Mr, Spooner’s rote agains} the grant to Maynooth, and of rumors that have gained etreugth thereby to the effec) that Parliament will be speedily dissolved. The Madrid Gascte of the léth of April publishes a despatch from Valencia, dated the previous day, 12 o’clook, anncuncing that Valencia continued tranquil. ‘The Captain General of the Philippine Islands had re- ported, under date the Sth Febrrary, that tranquillity continued. On Menday, 14th of April, at Vienna, the shares of the Lombard-Venetian Railroad were at 29 par ceat pre- mium, A great Vienna banker received orders on Fri- day to buy two thousand shares for Paris houses at 20 pereent., and on Saturday the premium was as high as 82 per cent. The Courrier de Marseilles states that the municipality of that city have resolved on giving a grand banquet to Marehal Pelissier and his sta, whose arrival there is expected about the end & this month. Seme apprehension felt that the French Senate may, for the frst timegturn restive, and put a veto upon the bill imposing a tax upon carriages. They caa only do this, according to the constitution, upon the ground that the bill is unconstitutional; but, on the other hand, if they choose to call {t unconstitutional, thera is no ap- peal from their verdict. Many of the Senators who were atimulated—nay, almost ordered—by goverament to set up their carriages in order to give employment to the working classes, feel deeply aggrieved that they are now to be called upon to suffer a novel Gescription of taxation. Advices from Warsaw, of the 4th ins:snt, say—Prince Gortschakoff hes informed the principal capitalists that vast enterprises are projected in Poland and Russia, and that they will act in their own interest, and at the same time give proofs of patriotism, in arrsnging matters so that money will not be wanting when required. He mentioned at the same time that the Emperor wished that the manufactories of Russia should be no longer worked by foreigners, and that bis Majesty desired to ‘bring into play the abundant resources of the country. Advices from South America are dated at Buenos Ayres, 2a ; Montevideo, Gib ; Rio de Janeiro, 16th; Bahia, 20th; Pernambueo, 224 of March. ‘The Atrato had arrived in England from the West In- dies.

The Ambassador of Russia proposed in very elo- quent ard hearty terms a toast to the Queen of England, the Emperor of the French, and the King of Prussia. The propositions made by Russia relative to the extension of the commercial and custcms trea ies of 1818 and 1825, have reached the government; but the concessicns of Rusala are mush less important than had been expeeted. Advices from Genoa of the 10th of April, in the Paris Presse, says :—The naval forces of the United States, in the Mediterranean, are going to take up a position not far from the Strait of Gibraltar. The Susquehanna, 60 gun screw, is expected from Smyrna, and four vessels cf war from America. The Saranac slone returns home, having finished her time in the Mediterranean.

Count Cotloreco (formerly Austrian Ambassador in Tondon) in to go iu mediately from Vienns to Rome on a epecial mis- vion, It is industriously cirsulated that the mission refers only to the Concordat, but the Italian journals say it attaches to the general state of Italy.

A report was current to effect that large bodies of troops and great quantities of ammunition were about to be dispatched to Canada. ‘The report had caused a great deal of anx'ety to the pub. Nc mind; and he desired to know whether there was for the report. Lord Pawawcre replied:—There is a baat out of doors that « very large force 1s about to embark for British North America.

I dare say, however, that I shall incur but tle hazard if I venture, according to the proviacislism natural to our western towns, to guess (laughte:) that the spirit and purpose of a new comer may excite at least some little curiority amongst you. (Cheers.) Well, now, Jet me cay, as an individual, that 1am not author- ied to feel, and do not feel, any desire other than that of giving my best exertions and energy omreservedly to the restoration and maintenance of the most harmonious sentiments and friendly, feelings that ough: to eee pad and aiming at such purpose, 1 feel that, ifany- ig occurs to disturb the harmony between us, it IL be because of an overwhelming State policy, ve tween the two countries.
