ARRWAL OF THE NEW YORK, TWELVE HOURS LATER PROM EUROPE. he. ae, &e. ‘The steamahip New York, from Greenock Feb. 14 at 6 P, M., arrived to-day. She experienced heavy westerly gales ail the passage. On the 16th she was struck by light- ping, which split the fore reyalmast, She brings Glasgow papers of Saturday evening, which contain a few hours later advices from London. . Consola closed at noon of the 13th at 961; a 963, for money and ac- count, The London Advertiser's Paris correspondent writes that Allsop was in Paris very recently, and was frightened away by the menaces of his confederates, who threatened to take his life because he expressed doubts respecting the success of the dreadful enterprise. Ho his without doubt escaped to America, It is again sald that Schamy] has given in his submis- sion to Russia, © The India House had received along despatch, but it merely adds some unimportant details to the tacts al- ready published. The Times supports the Ind{a bill, and the Daily News anc Herald have articles opposing it. The Daily News has an indignant leader on the troat- ment of the English engineers of the Neapolitan govern- ment and the Smaction of the English ministry. The Times is glad to pair Mr. Roebuck off against the va- poring French colonels, bub protests against come of his expressions. The Journal de Frankfort siates that the commercial crigis in St. Petersburg had caused several failures, with abilities ranging from 50,000 to 200,000 silver roubles. Steiglite & Co. ure reported to have lost largely, and by way of compensation it is said that the Emperor has per- mitted them to export one million gold imporiais, the ten percent export duty being suspended in theirfavor. It seems probable that these particulars involve great ex- aggeration. Acceunte received in Paris state that more troops are required in China to carry out the intended operations. No more addresses from the army are to be published in the Moniteur or any other paper published in France. On the morning of the 12th ult. the Union Workhouse at Athy, Ireland, was almost totally consumed by fire. The partioulars of this disastroxs occurrence have not been Jearned; but no jess than three adult male paupers and five boys perished in the conflagration. The Germanic Dict has voted in favor of the propos! tions of tho Duchy of Lauenburg, which claims the aid of the Diet against the Danish government. Father Zappetti, a Jesuit priest, who has obtained rome notoriety by his abuse of tae English government, on re- turning to Malta from Rome was conveyed back to Italy in ber Majesty ’s ship Harpy. The Tamar steamer, from Alexandria, arrived at South ampton on the 13th. She brings the heavy portion of the Australian maile and £100,000 in gold. The Marco Polo, with £300,000 in gold, was off Holy- head on Saturday ferenoon. Great Britain. Lonpon, Feb. 12—Fvening. ‘The next telegraphic despatch from India will be due at Malta on Sanday next, with news from Bombay to the ‘24th ult. In the Court of Bankruptcy to-day Mr. Lawrence, on bebalf of the Great Northern Railway Company, stated that the total amount of Redpath’s frauds was £220,000, and that @ special examination had resulted in the tdenti- fication of forged transactions to the amount of £64,350. The whole of the creditors had been paid 20s. in the pound, with the exception of the brokers, who, if they exercised ordinary aa, ae have prevented Redpath’s frauds from g enormous extent which they bad reached. . Lawrence submitted a proof for £60,000 st Redpath’s estate. Mr. Commis: sioner Gor!burn at once committed the proof, and said he quite approved cf the examination the company had made ‘with respect w the brokers, who will receive only 15s. ip the pouna. Lonpow, Feb. 13,1858, ‘The Times says the India bill merely embocies, fow and obvious conclusions to which ali and tardy operations of Indian government and rid our want cf cay, real rospongibility; it will remove uscless ies, interventions and delays.

Monday will hupply this cofictenoy by a! ‘the line to be adopted by tho ston leaders. ‘The Herald thinks, if any change be noeded, it ehould be a much loss violent one. The blow aimed by govern ment at the Kast India Company will probably recoil on themrelves. The second Jeader of the London Times is on the govorn- ment of India and Lord Canning’s letter, which the Tima pre nry lng ® valid defence to the most popular charges ‘againet him. The third article is on recruiting for the army. For the last five monthe the recruits attested have averaged very little ahort of 4,600 « month for the infantry of the line alone ; and 6,000 for all arme of the service together. These numbers would represent, within « fraction, a total levy of 70.000 troops « yoar—a rate amply sufficient, if main- tained, to answer ail demands upon us. Our may be somewhat defective.

The jent of the Times states that, according to letters from the number of Russian saflors in the Black Sea is not to be diminished, as the vessels of war are not to exceed a certain number. The Grand Duke Con- stantine has given orders that all sailors who were in the service of the government sball be sent on boar! mer chantmen, and be subject to the same discipline m before, and have the same pay; and in order that they may not forget any part of their duties, mercaptile vowels are to carry .

The commissioners are also ordered to collect all the infor. mation which may prove ecerviceahie to the government jn determining the position of Servia towards the Suiten Mysterious Death of » Young Lady. A very singular case concerning the death & young Iady came to light yesterday morning, and Ja at present under investigation by General Super- intendent Tallmadge. From what information we could obtain it @ppeara that the young lady was induced to leave her parents, who reside in Poughkeepsie, with a young man, who brought her to this city and placed her in a house of prostitution in Grand street, where an at- tempt was mado by a physician of some standing in the city to produce an abortion, which resulted in her death. The examinatien before Deputy Superintendent Tall- madge disclosed facts which, when allowed to be made Public, will show that a most diabolical outrage has been perpetrate!. As several of the parties bave not as yet been arrested, the names of the parties concerned in the perpetration of the deod are withheld for the present. ‘The facts attending the case show that about the Sthof February last the accused, a young man about twenty-five years of age, induced the deceared to leave her home under promise ef marriage. He was to take her on to Norwalk, where bis relations resided, and there be mar- ried on the following evenimg. Her friends consented to let her go, and they Jeft Poughkeepsie on the above day, and,on reaching this city, put up at Florence’s Howl. Here they remained several days, when she was taken to the office of a physician in Grand street, who induced her to remove her quarters to @ noted house of prostitution in the same street, near Centre. Here, it ia ailoged, an abor- tion was produced, which resulted’ in her death, which occurred on the afternoon of the 13th of February. On the following Monday the accused tel to ber friends in by ony eg stating her sudden death, and that he would leave that evening with the body to bring ithome. The unexpected and sudden death of the young lady created a suspicion among her friends, who, after baring the body Roary, interred, determined to investigate the affair, physician stated that tne de- ceased died of Dillious colic, and a certificate was given to that effect. A brother of the deceased, residing in Breokiyn, being fully satiafled that an outrageous wrong had been commitied, laid the matter before uel Bre- voort, Deputy op eerpeorer4 Tallmadge’s aid, who found the accused had kept the death of the deceased quiet ‘two days before telograpbing to her friends, and durit this time bad all her under clething neatly washed ironed and packed up, preparatory to being sent to bh keepsie. The sccured was accordingly arrested, and be! questioned regarding the matter before Deputy Superin- tendent Talimadge, he stated that the deceased was riding in a stage, and Ddeing taken sik waa removed to the office of the doctor in question, when he had her taken to this house of prostitution, and that it waa here she died. He denies all knowledge of attempt to produce an abortion or any connection in causing her death. The case will be taken before Justice Welsh, and the body will be taken up and a post mortem ¢xamination held, to see if any foul means bave been used to produce death. ‘The Wreck of the John Milton.

Mr. Smith—I do not wish such an allegation as that thie asycrany! ig Bot gotup to rerve the ends of public jus- lice ehould be allowed to go uncontradicted. I say, if there ever was a case that was instituted for the purpose of answering the the ends of justice, it is the one of @ man who, for twelve years, has been engaged in an iliegal business and has endeavored to prosecute other parties engaged in the same business. If there any man that the law should take hold of it is that man who takes the part of ab; , and attempts to convict thoge associ- ated with bim in guilt.

The poet who hailed the advent of spring with— Come, gentle speig; éthereal mildness come, would have been slightly bewildered had he lived uatil the year of grace 1858, and resided in Now York city on the Sth day of March; he would baye certainly revised his poem, and substituted winter for spring, ae being by far the milder season of the two. In fact, yesterday was a furiously cold January day, which by some mischaace has strayed into March, to the immense disgust of parties whose winter clothing was worn out, and who were felici- tating themselves on the prospect of pleasant weather and eunny skies. The range of the thermometer yester day wae ag follows:—5 A. M., 6 dege; 8 A. M., 9 dogs. ; 12 M.,15 degs.; 3 P. M., 16 degs.;6P. M., 14 degs.; 10 P. M., 9 degs. In addition to this piercing cold for thia latitude, ‘a violent wind prevailed throughout the day, which cut the faces of ali hat were exposed to ita fury, like a dull rasping razor, Altogether, it was by far the coldest day we have experiencea ubis year, and the most unseasopa- ble and unpicasant.

The rivers and bay, almoet for the first time this season, were filled with large masses of tloating ice, which somowbat impeded the ferry boats. A few days such as yesterday would prove a serious nuisance in choking up navigation, freezing hydrants and gas meters, and raising ‘‘dickens’’ generally. Fortunately, this wea ther cannot last long, aud wo can lay the flattering unc- tion to our soule, that there is a g: ume coming right along in the way of fine, warm, pleasant spring weather.

On searching him at the store, a number of letters previously miased were taken from his pockets, With several checks which had been enclosed in letters.
