mi IMPORTANT. afc from Europe By seve ral recent arrivals, English and French papers to the 22d July, have been received at New-York. The Evening Post says: The in telligence from the seat of war in Europe brought by the last arri vals, seems to give a different as pect to the great struggle be tween the Russian and Ottoman empires. The defeat of the Grand Vizier on his retreat to Shumla, the fall of Silistria, and the in vestment of Shumla are events favorable to the success of the Jlussian arms. Still it should be considered that nil the accounts we have seen are Russian ac counts. What effect these ope rations and successes of the Rus sian army will have upon the con tinuance of hostilities between the two nations, it would perhaps be presumption, with the imperfect information to be obtained at this distance, to undertake to predict. One of two things must take place either Russia will be encoura ged to prosecute the war with re newed vigor, or will seize this op- accompanied by the Grand Dukes Constantine and Michael, towards the end of June. The following intelligence is dated Banks of the Danube, July G: The victory gained over the Grand Vizier by Gen. Diebitsch, has been announced by Russia to all the Courts with which that power has friendly relations. This communication was accompanied by a diplomatic note declarative of the Emperor's pacific inten tions, and setting forth that he is desirous of putting a stop to the effusion of blood, as soon as the Porte will consent to satisfy his demands, the justice of which has been admitted by all the Cabinets of Europe. A Vienna article of July 9, savs: Letters from Odessa are full of reports of negotiations for peace, and it is believed there that hos tilities will soon cease. In con sequence of these letters our funds have risen considerably. Turkey Sf Greece. The Augs burg Gazette contains the follow inff intelligence, dated Constanti nople, June 22: The British and French Ambassadors have not yet had an official interview with the portunity to retire from the strug-j Keis Effendi, but have endeavor- gle, without disgrace. ed to nave a connucntiai untier- standing with him upon the sub- ALUMUix- j. uitvcu. luuitugs-'iect ot the mission, in tins man to the Duke of Wellington, a3 the fittest and most likely man to be Regent. Contradictory reports as to the health of the Duke also occupy the columns of the differ ent London prints, those of the one side affirming that he never was more vigorous and free from sickness in his life; while on the other hand it is stated that he is rapidiy approaching the grave. At one of the English public meeting to aid manufacturers, it was proposed among other things to apply to Government to take from the Clergy all the revenue beyond a decent allowance, and apply the same to the reduction of the malt and other taxes which press heavily upon the poor. The income of the Clergy in the Brit ish kingdom is nearly fifty mil lions of dollars, and in all France which is called "a priest-ridden, country," the income of the church is about seven millions. burg Gazette contains the follow- per they have learned that the ing bulletin, dated Bucharest, Ju- Porte will not negotiate upon the Iy2: At this moment a courier, bases of the Protocol signed at sent off from Silistria by Lieut.

Ireland. Considerable distur bances had taken place in the north of Ireland on the I2th and 13th of July, in consequence of quarrels between the Orangemen and Catholics. Twenty persons were killed in Ulster, and a part of the county of Donnegal was in a state of fearful commotion. The streets of Belfast were crow ded with a mob which intercepted the coaches. The Orangemen paraded though Torme, and, arri ving at the Roman Catholic Cha pel, fned several vollies of mus ketry over it, reviling the Catho- ics, their religion, and priest- The Catholics, however, he insult to pass without notice.

The surrender of this fortress is an event of high importance, as it will hasten, and render almost certain, the fall of Giurgewo and Routschouk. Thus, with the ex ception of Widdin, against which undoubtedly fresh efforts will be successfully directed, the whole line of the Danube is secured to the Russians as the basis of their future operations. The Grand Vizier returned to Shumla after the battle of June 11, with 6000 men of cavalrv and 12,000 infantry. He is collecting all the troops he can, and hopes to be able to assemble 40,000 men without weakening the ar rison. The Grand Vizier is closelv blockaded at Shumla by General Diebitsch.

England.-The political aspect of England is again becoming troubled; muehdissention and tur bulence has been occasioned by the success of the Catholic ques tion, arid it is even anticipated by some of the advocatcsof the High Church party that a speedy disso lution of the ministry must be the result. It i3 said that the King already regrets his assent to the measure of Catholic Emancipa tion; and that whoever was instru mental in promoting it, is sure to meet with manifestations of his dislike.

Foreign. Our foreign intelligence once more begins to assume an interest ing aspect. The reader will find, in the preceding columns, some accouns of an important character in reference to the great struggle between the Russians and Turks. The defeat of the Grand Vi zicr; the fall of Silisiria; and the advance of the Russian corps of reserve, show conclusively that the strength of the Russians is about to be put forthand Shumla once taken, they will come di rectly in contact, on the plains of Adri anople, with the Turkish Sultan and the Standard of the Prophet. Unless the other European powers should inter fere, we think it more than probable that the present campaign will termi nate the contest. Congressional.
