EXTRAORDINARY PASSAGE.
The U. 3. Mail Steamship Atlantic,
Captain West, from Liverpool, at 9j A.
M., Wednesday. 3d inst., aimed at half-
past seven o’clock on Saturday mottling
14ih instant, making the trip w nine days

Tlie Cunard propeller Andes, from
New York, 18th ultimo, arrived out in
11 daya and 22 bonre, meantime.
The Europe, from New York»20th
ult., mrived out Sunday, May 1st at ll
o'clock. A. M.
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe had ar
rived in London. She was the guest of
tlio Dutches of Sutherland. Her entree
to the British Capital docs not seem to
have created much enthusiasm.
On the evening of tlio 2nd inst., the
Lord Mayor of London entertained at
dinner tho Judges, and other legal digni-
tital ics, and a few literary jnen. Mr. In-
gcraoU and Mrs. Stowe, were present.—
Mr. lngorsoll made a speech. Justice
Tvlfourd mado an oration complimenta
ry to Mrs. St owe, to which Charles Dick
ons icplied in the name of the lady.
In Parliament the Jewish Disabilities
bill was still under consideration.
A public meeting is called at Grcert-
wicli, to express sympathy for Kossuth;
and to denounce the recent attack on him
by the Times and the governmen*.
Lundy Foote 5c Co., the celebrated
snuff manufacturers have protesed against
the proposed reduction of the duty on for
eign manufactured tobacco, from 9s Gd
per lb, to 3s 6d. They *ny the measure,
if carried into effect, will totally ruin
ilmse engaged in tobacco manufacture in
Britaiu.
From France there is no newsofspe
cial importance. EmpressFugenie was
enjoying good heulth. ** *
Some political arrests had been made
at Paris, ono man being described as
“delegate from u London Revolutionary
Committee.” A disturbance took place
on tho S7(h ult., at the school of aris-ct-
wetierg.at Angers, which ended in twen
ty of the pupils being marched ofl’to pris
on.
The Monitcur contains tlie pardon of
sixty-nine more political offenders--
*uma of them of note.
From Prussia wo have some items of
general interest.
The first Prussian Chamber late voted
tho exclusion of Jews from all public em
ployment. On tho 2Glh ult., a petition
on the subject, bearing tho names of a
thousand influential citizens, was pres
ented to the Second Chamber. Tho pe-
Tbe President, in his address to the
Congress and people,- recounted some
of the political doings of tlie ecclesiasti
cal body, luit shrunk from giving, at that
time, a full expose of all that had come
to his knowledge concerning their
treasonable designs.. Our correspon
dent, however, fill* up the void thus left,
and states that there was a conspiracy
on foot, between the Inst President Baez,
and the clergy, to surrender the liberties
of the country to France.
The existence of this conspiracy fully
accounts, for die seizure intended by the
French of tlie Peninsula of Saraana, in
October last; which enterprise was given
up in consequence perhaps of the de
termined stand mude against it by the
American press, in publishing and de
nouncing the whole scheme, and which
was attempted to be explained away as
a simple putting in of tho fleet to refit.
It also accounts for the subsequent
visit of the Spanish war steamer Isabel
Catolica, to the port of San Domingo,
carrying Senor Toriente aa an envoy
from the Captain-General of Cuba to
President Baez; and hy it is likewise
easily explained the policy adopted by
Baez in revoking the promises held out
to colonists, and supposing the intended
scheme of American emigration, got up
by Gen. Green and others. General
Santana, has, however, luckily, penetra
ted the conspiracy, humbled the proud
prelate, and saved for the second time
the liberties of his country.

Wo have been shown an important let
ter addressed to C. G. Baylor, Esq, late
United StatesCousul at Amsterdam, and
Editor of the Cotton Plant, hy the Presi
dent of a powerful and wealthy Euro
pean commercial company, This letter
is in*conclu9^>n of a correspondence
which has been going on for some time
between Mr. Baylor and European influ
ences in regard to the importance of a
Continental Dejtot for cotton. From the
language and tone of the letter before
us, the most favorable disposition is man
ifested, and the Piesident has notified
Mr. Baylor that one of the company was
to sail lor America in time to lie at the
Memphis Convention. At Memphis the
plan of a tour will be agreed upon. His
tour is to enable this gentleman, as the
confidential friend and agent of the Eu
ropean Company, to inform them of the
condition of the cotton growers, and
their disposition to participate in any
general movement such as iscontempla-

also be to give certain assurances to the

ligious opinion and the admission of Jews account of the opportunity it will give
to civil offices. The reading of this pe- intelligent Euiopean society to judge
tilion was strenuously opposed by the
Cavalier party, but a majority of the
Chamber decided that it'should be en
tertained.
Advices from Berne state that the
Federal Council had received a tele
graphic dispatch from Lieut. Col. Bur-
nanr, announcing that tho Austrians had
established a military post near Stabhis,
on territory which is considered as be
longing to Switzerland. On recoipt of
tins intelligence the Federal Council im
mediately assembled to inquire into the
alia ir. - .
From Palestine, wo learn that the de
tails ofthcaiTioy on Palm Sunday, in the
Church of 1I10 Holy Sepulchre, are said
to be these. The English Missionaries
were tut nod out of the Church, because
they behaved in au unseemly manner
when the procession of the Host passed
on good Friday. A missionary named
Crawford preached a sermon outside the
Synagogue; while service was going on
within, and iudulged in invectives against
the Talmud. One of the children of Is
rael, incensed at this, hurled a dead cat
in the face of the reverned gentleman.—
Mr. Crawford's friends came to tho res
cue, the Jews supported the defonder of
tho Mosaic rites, and a fight ensued.
Advices from Australia were of a fa
vorable character. The yield of gold
was, on an average, satisfactory.
Tho dates from Van Diemen’s Land
were to January 8th. They were await

ernment respecting transportation.
Her Majesty,-Queen Victoria upon re
ceiving tho news of the melancholy acci

a letter to Mr. Ingersol, in condolence
for the sad affliction the President had
sustained.
Important from llieDominicaii
Republic.
The New York Herald, of tho 14th,
publishes a-full and interesting account,
translated from public State documents,
of the resolute measures adopted hy
General Santana, President of the Do
minican Republic, (hot Santa Anna Of
Mexico,) in bringing the Archbishop of
San Domingo to a sense of his situation
as a subject of that Government. In its
editorial remarks 011 the subject, the
Herald goes on to say, his Grace having
declined 19 take the oatli of fiidelity to
tho constitution, as prescribed by law,
was cited by Santana before the natlon-
al Congress, and there reiterated his re
fusal, at the same time stigmatising the
constitution as a cursed and heretic one,
and declaring he would exile himself
rather than submit to the President’s
exigency.
Santana, as a good, wise,-and patriot
ic chieftain, as he is, very politely handed
10 tho recusant prelate his passport, and,
with a generosity which'does him credit,
issued on the same day a decree com
manding tho Ministers ot War and Ma
rine to placo at bis Grace’s disposal a
national vessel, and also directing the
Minister of the Treasure 16 hand to his

A Two Jlillioii Dollar Dia*
in ond.
Tlie Goshen Democrat and Whig
tells the following queer story !
Having iccently: heard much of the
reported good foi l une of the llev. Rob
ert Armstrong, of Ncwburg.in purchas
ing, among other minerals, what lie
supposed was a topaz, but which turned
out to he a diamond, we have taken
pains to get at the real facts of the case,
and find them to be theso : Mr Arm
strong, who has for some time past de
voted much of his lesure lime to mine-
rogical pursuits, putchased a lot of mine
rals, some months siuce, ol an English
man in Now York, among which was
supposed to be a topaz.
Upon a re-examination of theso mine
rals, a considerable time after their pur
chase, Mr. A. was struck with the close
resemblance of this supposed topaz to a
real diamond, and was led to subject it
to a test of its qualities. This test confir
med his hopes; and the opinion of others
acquainted with the subject was sought
and given iu favor of the valuable char
acter of the gem. Mr A. has been of
fered $500,000 for one-half o.f the brilli
ant, but has declined the proposition.
Its weight is two and a half ounces, and
if a real diamond, its value will be more
than $2,000’000.
Mr. A. is now taking measures to
have the character of the mineral put
to the severest scrutiny, and we believe
he has Jittle doubt but that scrutiny will
result according to his wishes. If a dia
mond, it is the largest known in the
world. It has passed in disguise through
several hands, its valuable qualities not
hiving been discovered by tbe. person
who originally took-it from the earth,
nor by any into whosp possession it sub
sequently passed, until it foil beneath the
scrutiny of the present possessor. Ifgen-
uitte, it will put the tevereud gentleman
in possession of immense? wealth, and
MARRIED.
