Tkt Roropean intelligence received by the tftevn
?Srfp Niagara. which arrived at Htli'ax yesterday
mcrnlng, l? of the highest importance. It fully con
tsn:? the impression ttiat a general European w at
H inevitable? but. having commented at length upon
?tk topic in a leading ed'toral, let us hastily glance
?t a few of the more etrikiug features of the new*.
The diflVri nt nations on tbe continent are evidently
preparing for the cowing struggle. In England
fee Btajo-t indignation has be^u aroused against
Frtaee Albert, who is openly accused of i>e
teaywg the secrets of the Ministry U> the Czar or
Russia. Jn Erance it is officially announced that
Mvtnty thousand soldiers are ready to proceed
to Turkey, and that in ca.-e of necessity one million
mo a quarter of men ure in readinesBto enter thefle'd
tb<w'd a general war take place. Austria desire* a
new l^an, wbieh is another ominouB foreboding, and
Sweden aud Denmark hive given notice <>f their in
tention to remain neutral.
The report received by the Europa. that Minister
Boate bad been killed in a duel with the Duke de
Alba, proves to have t>een erroneous. There is no" "
bowevtr. another rumor that a duel between Mr.
JBaule and Lord H->wden,the British Minibter, who
a?vd as second to the French Minister, was only de
terred by a death in tbe family of the latter.
England. France and other countries hid been
r Wired by the heaviest snow stores experienced for
years, and, as s consequence, the railroads were
blocked npsnd tra??lliHF almos* entirely suspended.
The increased pressed of war Hud caused a greiit
destine in consols. BreadHun* had run up beyond
precedent sin oe the lrit-b famine, t lour advanced
during the week prior to the N iagara's sailing two
to three shillings per barrel, tmd whe?r and com in
Dke ratio. The cotton markets coatinned tinn, bat
nrtthent charge in quotations.
It will be seen that the receipt of the Niagara s
news yesterday led to a great rise in flour in this
Market. Common brands of State flour, which
?toed on Saturday "at ** a 12*. were sold on
. *Charge yesterday, on the receipt of the news, to
" tke extent ol about ll.ouO bbla., at $9 per bbl. This
nxbibita tbe greatest advance ever known in a aia
ple day since the famine year of 1*47. A part of the
purchases were made on Ea?teni account. Owing
to ita scarcity wheat was unsettled. The advance io
Liverpool was about 25c. per bushel. When sales j
are made the advance here will no doubt equal that j
?broad. Sound shipping corn was also scarce, and j
held at higher figures.
M. Bedini is in Washington, a guest of M.Bar- j
fcges. the French Minister. Our cotrespondent |
writes that the Nuncio, be;ng in dread of personal
fcjuty from those who have participated in the de
mor.st rations against him in this country, has per
sonally applied to the President and members of the
Cabinet lor aome sort of diploma dc recognition, at a
means ol greater security, basing his claim upon
? tbe fact that he brought an autograph letter from
Ike Pope to the President. It is understood that
the Secretary of State declined to sign any other
paper than a mere passport; whereupon the Nun
olo's secretary and many of his friends are reported
to have intimated, among other taings, that the
?onseqnences would be visited upon Mr. Cass, Jr.,
Mr Charge at Rome. URder the#?- circumstances,
?en. (fans yesterday introduced a resolution into the
calling upon the government for auy paper*
to its possession concerning M. Bedini's position?
tbas conferring upon the matter a national import
ance tbat will probably tend to strengthen the ex
ottement existing in different parts of the country.
The documents will mo*t# likely be transmitted Wo
the Senate to-day. The Nuncio last Friday re
ceived visiters, dressed in his scarlet robes ofpontifl
Ml hener and state, at the house of Postmaster
General Campbell. He is making preparations to
leave in the next Cunard steamer that sails from
Boston.
Judge Douglas, froffl the Committee on Territo
ries, introduced a new bill Into the United States
Senate rente rday, which proposes to divide Nebras
ka Into two territories, to be called Nebraska and
Kansas. Having commented at length upon this
measure In an editorial article, it is unnecessary to
toy mere here. Various unimportant matters hnv
tog been disposed of, Mr. Cass offered his resolution
tolling lor official papers with regard to the position
of the Pope's Nuncio. This gave rise to a lengthy
iiecnmk n. In which Messrs. Cass, Everett, Donglss.
Badger, Mason, Dawson, and other gentlemen, parti
eipated They generally disapproved, in tbe most
ndignant terms, tbe cot, duct of the people in differ
eat cities who have taken part in the violent acts of
hostility against M. Bedini.
While Senators were engaged In denouncing the
Bedini rioters, the members of the Hum were de
feating the railroad troubles at Erie. Some of the
Western members, It will be notioed, bl'terly com
plain ol the conduct of the authorities of Pennay!
omnia in upholding the rioters in their unlawful
tears*. The Western men threaten to retaJ!.?t? in a
Manner that oannot but sorely affect the priae of ibe
Philadelphiaim. The rioters bsve been discharged
ky tie Judge of the United states Court at Pitt*
lurg, and a despatch from Erie states that the Mar
aha) will pTobably recommence the superintendence
?T laying down the railr *d track in the vicinity of
?rle. in which event another riot is anticipated.
The Speaker of the House yesterday announced *a
, i eeial committee ol ?hirs/*n on Mr. McDon?*l's
I ,,(ibc U*uroaa bill. Judging frvui the evmpk-uon
eftkiseowmittee, tbey will not select the extreme

1 he original bill lately introduced into th?
I nited State;* Senate by Mr. Douglas, from lit.'
Committee on Territories, having been dis
covered to contain the element* of a bombsbe i
on the slavery question, has l>een overhauled
br the committee, the 1 'resident and the Cabi
net, and the Southern leaders of the Senate,
and the result of their " sober second thought"
if a new bill, providing for two new territori (
Instead of one.
It will be seen, by reference to our specia
telegraphic advices from Washington which we
publish this morning, that this new bill is t
offspring of much auxiety. and consultation
and tribulation, and backing and tilling, be
tween the President, the Cabinet, anfl the lc* J
ing democrats of both houses who had taken
the matter in bund, But the result makes it a
good day 's woik for Sunday as far as it go' \
o think, however, that after the consumma
tion of the task. it would have been wise on t' ?
part of the ('resident, the Cabinet, and all co I
cerned. to have called a general prayer meet
ing alter the example of I>r. Franklin? for that
theie is the trouble of a tierce agitation impeu -
ing uo rnsn can doubt. And where the free
soil allies of the President will turu up at the
end of the battle Gen. Cas? appears to have n
pretty distinct perception.
These two territories are to comprise all
that vast region lying between the thirty-sev
enth parallel ana the British boundary of th?>
forty-ninth degree of north latitude in one
direction, aid transversely between the Mis
souri river and the western boundary of Mis
soul i on the east. clear back to the W'ahsatch
Mountains, which pass within sight of the Mor
mon s* ttfemtiits #>f the Great Basin thence
northward along the backbone of the Rocky
Mountains t<> the British possessions. Ttie
superficial aria ot land, sund a d rocks, com
prehended within these limits, is some foir
hundred and fifty thousand square miles. In
other word*, ten States ? if not eleven ?
equal In size to the State of New York,
without entirely consuming the raw material
No complaint, therefore, can be mode from aoy
quarter of the want of ell*>w room in these
tw > proposed territories of K.ansa? aud Nebras
ka The former, however, Is comparatively a
narrow !>e!t extending from the 37th to the 40th
parallel of norih latitude, being only one hun.

which cann< t be travelled over short of a thou

tending from the 40th to the 40th parallel. ba?
ample scope aid verge enough in either direc
tion. Betwfcen the same degrees of latitude on
the Atlantic coast we may sail from the shoals
of Baruegat, iu New Jersey, far up the coast of
Newfoundland ?
V\ here the Icy mountains flmm the pale
Ride gaylv down before the s-nntner winds.
Floating like fairy rsstles in the son
I'pon tlx distant main.
The two new territories therefore, being en
tirely -atisfactory as to size, wf come now to the
examination of the main question. All this vast
srea ol both territories east of the Rocky Moun
tains s subject as it stands to the Missouri com
promise of 1820, and Us perpetnal prohibition
of involuntary servitude, or Southern slavery
The committee of the Senate, however by and
with the advice and consent of the admioislra
tion. declare in their bill that the prohibition
of the Missouri compromise is superseded by
the piiaciple* of the adjustmen of 1850. which
leave the ques'ion el' the exclusion or admis
sion of slavery to the people ot the territories
th< nisei ?es.
The object of this construction of the com
promise of 1850, an?>. the introduction of two
territories instead of one, ig understood to be
cme territory UlT the North and the other
fir the South, it ig believed that slavery will
! not travel a*jove the 40th parallel ? the north"
ern bound try of Kansas? while that territory,
lying as ?.t does conveniently west of Missouri,
is thought to be just Ae thing for the
Miff Brians with their slave property. How
thr administration have come back to this ex
traordinary sense of devotion to the compromise
of 1 RT. 0 , after its late formal repudiation by the
Cabinet organ, is a little carious; but we
presume that the real policy of this b 11
is to give the rebellious outside nation
al democrats an opportunity for joining
bands npon the same platform with the
Van I'uren free toilers. But as the New York
Evening Post and the Albany A tlas, in refer
eice to this supercftleas against the Missouri
tl< mat cation, have already shown tbeir teeth,
the jrospect of harmony is exceedingly doubt
ful Nor are we quite sure of the cordial co
operation of John Van Buren and John Coch
rane in this new territorial scheme, notwith
standing the temptation of the spoils.
Incidentally, we may also remark that the
southern of these two proposed territories
cioises the Rocky Mountains and invades the
limits of Utah, the object of the committee lw
ing. doubtless, to hem in the Mormons as closely
as possible, and to give the South, if they
choose, a slice of the Green river valley weBt
of the Rocky Mountains ? and much good may
it do them.
Such is the new compromise for the new ter
ritories of Kansas and Nebraska. As they
stand they are both subject to the Missoari in
terdict against slavery; as proposed by the
committee, with the aid of the President and
his Cabinet, they will both be open to the coi?
petition of the settlers from the North and the
South, leaving them to fight out the question of
slavery among themselves.
Now let us hear from the free Boil democracy
of Tammany Htil. Where are they? Where
ore their organs? The administration has come
book to the compromise of 1850 ? they declare
their purpose to carry the principles of that
adjustment above the line of 3f> 30, thus open
ing the country up to the British possessions to
the slaveholders of the South. Where is the
free soil branch of the democracy ? What a
prtispt ct for democracy is opened before us!
| Who speaks first ?
Th? K< wi hy (be Niagara ?War Inevitable.
The view taken by us of the European com
plication at the date of our last advices appears
to be fully borne out by the intelligence re
ceived last night by the Niagara.
The French and English fleets have at length
received orders to enter the Black Sea. This
important fact is announced in a circular ad
dressed to the ministers of the different courts
by M. Drouin de L'Hnys. under date of Dec.
30. and which appears in the Paris Moni
trur. After narrating the different phases
of the qnestion, the circular goes oa to
slate that France, England. Austria and Prus
sia. had recently, by agreement at Vienna,
Bobmnlj recognized the t< rritorial integrity of
the Ottoman t mpire a* une of the conditions of
their political equilibrium - that the affair at
Sit) ope hnd taken pl->ce n^Hiiist all provisions
on their part Russia having tltclared that ?h<>
onfiy desired a material guarantee -and that, to
{.uard the Ottoman territory from any new
tacks, the French and English Htets hud re
civ< d grdets to eut r the Black Sea. The cir
cular terminals with the expression of a hope
ih.ir. Russia will nut by hi r conduct expose
Europe to fre-h convulsions. Thns has been
taken the first decisive steps on the part of the
four united Powers.
| It t* stated by the Paris jonrnals ? we know
not upon what foundation ? that the French
government has addressed a strong remon
strance to the court of Austria, expressing her
dissatisfaction at the evasive policy which she
seems to be pursuing, utid intimating that auy
further secession from the course decided upon
by the three other Powers would be taken as
an indication of meditated hostilities the re
sults of which she must abide by. It is said
that a further threat was added, tha' in the
event ot her persistence in such a shuffling line
of poluy her territorial interests would he as
sailed by aid being afforded to the rt volu
t'.onary party in Hungary.
The official confirmation hat- been received
of the acceptance by the Porte of the reeom
memlations contained in the liwt note of the
Vienna conference. The Sultan consents to
a congrcss in a neutral city. but he insists on
u revision of existing treaties, more particu
larly those of Kainardji and Adriauople.
It may be as well to recall the recollection
of our readers to what the provisions of those
treaties were.
The treaty of Kainardji stipulated for the
independence of the Tartars of the Crimea, of
UtssHrabia. and of the cantons of the Ku
ban. with the exception of their still depending,
iu a re ligious sense, on the defendants of
Islam ; the restitution of the countries con
quered from the Khan ; the abandonment of th<
Russian conquests in Moldavia aud Wallachia
Bessarabia. Georgia. Mongrelia and the Archi
pelago. with the exception of Ar.or, the two
Kabarlais and Kilburun : the privilege ot navi
gating the Black Sea and the Mediterranean the
greatest advantages for Russian commerce, an
improved administration for Moldavia am1 Wal
lachia. the title of Padi-chah for t*," F uy* or ot
Russia, the right of Um? Kmpresa to protect the
Greek religion and its churches, and o variety
of minor provisos. all tending to the advan
tage of Russia.
By the treaty of Adriauople, however Tur
key was laid completely prostrate at the feet
of her haughty adversary. Although as re
gards territory she had not much reason to
complain of the exacting nature of it* condi
tioiis, id ail ether respects it 1? th? severest
blow that has been intlicted upon her. Besides
large indemnities and additional stipulation* in
favor of the. rights and privileges that had
been guaranteed to the Principalities of Wal.a
chia and Moldavia by former treaties, the im
portant concessions are secured by it of the
tree navigation of the Dardanelles and the Bos
phoius, and p?rfect immunity, not only for Rua
siau vessels in Turkish ports. but al*o for Uus
sisn travellers and merchants passing through
any part of the Turkish dominions.
Prom this brief recital of the provisions ot
thecs treaties it will be seen how important
it is for Turkey to obtain, if not th*ir total
abrogation, at least a revision o! the humilia
ting and shameful conditions which hsve vir
tually destroyed bit iudepcndcuce. If shs is
ever to bare* chance of recovering the ground
, she 1 as lost the mast make her stand now.
But will the Czar recede from the position
be lias taken, and consent to abandon not
only the pretentious on which it is foandcd,
but also the bard earned political art vantages
which it cost the Empress Catherine and his
broiher Alexander so much bloml and trsa
mre to secure ? We think not. If concessions
are to be made wc fear they will have to
come from the weaker Power.
It is stated in a letter from St. Petersburg,
under date of the 30th December, that the Em
peror tad formally rejected the Vienna proto
col and note of the 5th, but would consent to
receive and consider the Turkish proposition
of the 20th. He presets, however, in refusing
to recognise the right of European interven
tion in matters which he Bays concerns Turkey
alote. In other words, the lion would like to
have u&contr?lled poeseision of the lamb.
In the Lotdon Obsirrer it is stated that
Russian agents were on their way to this coun
try to effect purchases of arms and ships. This
report receive# confirmation from the fact that
three Russians officers arrived here a short
time since to superintend the construction of
some vessels ordered by the Emperor.
The differences between England and Persia
are said to have been arranged; but as the in
formation has onljr been received through the
medium of private letters from Conbtantinople
..and as we see it stated that ratifications of the
treaty between Persia and Russiu had been ex
changed at St. Petersburg, we hesitate to give
credence to the statement.
The Patrie and PariB Bulletin aflirm that
the Czar has given orders for immediate pre
parations to be made for crossing the Danube.
In the meantime, the European breadstuff*
markets reflect closely the present menacing
aspict of affairs, those of Great Britain being
more excited than at any period Bince the fU
?tnine in Ireland. Whilst on this subject we
' cannot too strongly impress on our farmers the
policy of attending to the advice lately offered
them through the medium of our columns by
Mr. Sanders, namely, to sow plenty of spring
wheat and plant as large an amount as possible
of Indian corn. If a gene ral war breaks out
the Baltic and Black Seas will certainly be
closed to European commerce, and to this coun
try Western and Southern Europe will mainly
have to look lor their supplies.
Five Points Literati-re. ? Philosophy and
Morality.- ? For the past year we have been
innndated with a new kind ot writing, which
may be truly called our '* Five Points Litera
ture, v describing all the lowest scentB ot de
bauchery and vice which characterise that un
happy locality, and extensively patronized by
highly respected and highly respectable ladies,
dressed in the richest silks, laces and white kid
gloves. They are assisted by very distin
guished clergymen, with loag faces, who go
about collecting vast sums of money for the
ostensible purpose of reforming the abuses
which they discover in the haunts of vice and
crime. Their experiences are dressed up in all
the literary finery ot the age. ornamented with
philosophic maxims, and then pushed upon the
public. The principal journal engaged in this
work is the old organ ot Fourrierism. socialism
and infidelity. We have not been idle specta
tors of the progress of the work and its tend
ency upon the public mind. For many years
past the pruriency of police reports has been
the subject of severe animadversion ; but
nothing has yet appeared in any journal, either
in this country. France, or England, or has
been seot forth by any publisher, which h is
equalled the lewdness and tilth displayed in
those productions above named They have,
however, received the approbation of our
charitable ladles and those Kent'emen who
have the right foot in the kingdom of Heaven
and the left pressing down Satan behind.
The eflect of this new movement in literature,
philosophy and society, will only l>e to increase
the wickedness, licentiousness aud debauchery
of an age already too much given to such x
cesses. But this is only a portion ot the w k
of your modern exclusive reformers.
