NEWS FROM ENGLANDARRIVAL OF
THE ROYAL MAIL STEAMER BRITANNIA.
FIFTEEN DAYS I.ATF.K FROM EUROPE.
The royal mail atearaer Britannia, Captain John
Hrwett, arrived at her berth, at East Boston, this
morning, about 5 o'clock, from Liverpool, via Halifix.
She left Liverpool on the 4th inat., and lias
consequently made the passage in 14j doya, including
the detention at Halifax.
By thia arrival, we have received our full files of
London and Liverpool papers to Saturday evening,
the 3d instant., and alao letters from our foreign correspondents.
The Euro |>ean newa is of an interesting character,
while the parliamentary intelligence is [confined
chiefly to one subject?the proposed grant to the
Roman Catholic College at Maynooth. The Maynooth
endowment bill has caused an extraordinary
excitement both in and out of Parliament. The debute
in the House of Commons, on thia bill, was
continued throughout one entire week. Numerous
jietitions from ail parts of the kingdom were presented
to Parliament, mostly against the proposed
grant, while Protestant meetings, to discuss the
luestion, continued to be held in London and other
places.
It u/ll! ba nliMrvnd that the third rAndinir r\f (hit
Maynooth bill waa postponed till the 19th of May;
in the mean time the strong party out of Parliament,
opposed to the grant, intended to use every exertion
to defeat its final passage through the House of
Commons.
It will be remarked, under the head of Ireland,
that the Maynooth grant is not accepted as a gift
from England, but as a just concession of Ireland's
rights.
The British journals are principally filled with
lorg parliamentary debates on the Maynooth question,
and long leaders upon the same subject.
The question of war with the United States has
not been diacuased by theae journals; but the greatest
anxiety was manifested to learn the effect in Amerca

brilliancy that female fancy and English wealth
could devise. The Queen opened the bell, in a
quadrille, at 10 o'clock, with the Hereditary Grand
Duke of Mecklenburg. On the 23d ult. the Queen
and Prince Albert visited the steamer Great Britain,
at Blackwall. On the 34th alt. her Majesty and the
Prince went to Drury Lane theatre in state. The
procession consisted of eight carriage* and an escort
of life-guards. The performances were the opera of
Wi/fiam TtU and Csfcri. The Queen and Prince

Italian Opera. They left London on the 28th ult.

chief office in Prince Albert's household.?Globe. '
The Marquis of Blandford has published a letter 1
to the electors of Woodstock, taking leave of them '
and his seat in Parliament. The Chronicle says 1

l.im that he must either give up his seat or his allowance,
and that the Marquis was starved out of the
former.
