GREAT REJOICUVG IN FRANCE AND ENO- 7 LAND. NOTHING OF THE PACIFIC Cotton Advanced Breadstuff's Steady. ( New York, April steamer Baltic arrived 17. The Collins here about oon, bringing Liverpool dales to the morning of the 22d instant, four da V3 later than the Cumbria. She arrived off ibe light ship at b o clock this morning', but was compelled to anchor, owing to the dense fog, for seve ral hours. She passed the Arabia on the evening of the 4th, bound in, and passed the Asia-at 11 o'clock last night 100 miles east or bandy Hook. ! . - On Sunday, ike -30th ult , the Treaty of feace was finally sjjrned at fans. .;. Up to the departure of the Baltic the fate of the steamer Pacific was still unknown The conclusion of peace wes announced in Pans and London by salvos of artillery. Paris was illuminated: and in England the church bells pealed joyously in honor of the event. Throe or four weeks will elapse before the anal ratiocatteas areezchanged. The details of the adjustment have been referred to a commission. - The Pans correspondent of "the London Times says a council of tiie Ministers was held i ) the Tuillerie3on Saturday at 11 3-4 o clock, and remained in se.seion till twelve o'cloclc on Sunday.- The Emperor presi ded, and gave his last instructions. Count YValewski returned to his official residence to receive the Plenipotentiaries, who came at 12 3 4 o'clock. After the treaty was read over they pro ceeded to sign it. I be moment the signa tures wfre completed a signal was given and the cannon proclaimed the news. Bul letins announcing the fact were posted throughout the city. . ENGLAND. Parliament re-assembled on the the 31st In reply to a question, Lord Palmeraton said that though .the treaty of peace was sign ed, yet it was determined by the Congress that the particular conditions of the treaty were not made public until the ratification wen exchanged At the same time he would express his conviction that the trea ty will be deemed satisfactory by Eagland and Europe. , I ; Lord Palmerston also said that it would be found thai the objects for which the war was undertaken were fully accomplished It would be found that the integrity and independence of the Turkish empire bad been secured; that the treaty is honorable to all the contracting powers, and that while on one band it has put an end to the war, which every friend of humanity must - have naturally wished to see concluded, on the other hand it will lay the foundation of A peace wnich, be trusted, would be last ing and enduring -. , , .-v - .; Off Monday the Lord Mayor of London made an official proclamation of peace from the portico of the Mansion House, and af terwards at the. Exchange The tower and park guns fired a salute and flags were generally displayed inf the city and on the shipping.- In other cities similar displays were made, but not much enthusiasm was shown.. - i prance. The London Post's Paris correspondent writesT Hfwe make, up the accounts, per haps the contrast is in favor of Russia, to whom more has been given up than she has renounced. Such a result is natural, because it never was the intention of Eng land or Franco to pnnish : the Muscovite - aggression with conquest involving a loss of territory." ' - . M. Cavouir drew .the attention of the ' Peace Conference to the present condition v of Italy. He d welt on the danger of leav ing so important a question undecided, and declared that the Congress ought not to separate without, coming to some deci sion. Count Buol expressed surpres that such a subject should be brought before the l-Ienipotentianes. Count Cavour denied that the question was more Italian than European, and he maintained that as they were met on mat ters relating- to the greneral interest and welfare of Europe at large, Italy was a perfectly legitimate subject for considera tion, rle entreated me congress to take the question into consideration, as, if they did not, the Italian queston would force it self on Europe before two years. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. The London Times has a bitterly dispar aging article on Gen. Cass speech on the Central American question. The Bank of France has reduced its rate of discount 16 five per cent. Lord Clarendon has no intention of quit ting Pans for the moment. The best feeling prevails among all clas ses and ulmosl alt parties in trance at the conduct of England throughout, and the impression is that the peace will be found honorable to all concerned. The barque Clausman, from Savannah for Greenock, was wrecked at sea on the 14th of March. .The crew had arrived at Falmouth ; An article appears in the Dublin Nation almost proving that Sadlier, the banker, who was supposed to have commuted sui cide, is still alive. : ITALY. The latest advices say that the state of siege at Parma was being carried out with the utmost rigor. Every thing was sub jected to millitary dictation. The Austrian general Ureuville appears to be toe real governor of the city, upwards of three hundred arrests have been made. i INDIA. Advices, by telegraph via Trieste, from Hong Kong to the 15th of February and from Bombay to the 6th of March have been received. The annexation of Oude was completed without any disturbance, and Lord Canning was sworn in as gov ernor general of India on the 1st of March. The Santal districts were quiet and a scarcity was apprehended throughout In dia in consequence of a want of rain. Trade had improved at Bombay: money was easier. At Culcutta trade was inani mate: The import market had improved. The Latest by Telegraph to Liverpool. London. Wednesday morning. The ceremonial announcement of the conclu sion of peace was made on Monday to the b renchf Senate and Corps Legislatiff by the Minister of State. The Emperor thanks the members lor their patriotic support al ways afforded him, which, together with the admirable devotedness of the allied fleets and armies, contributed powerfully to the happy issue of trie war. It has already been stated that the mem bers of the conference have still to perfect a number or secondary arrangements es sential to the new state of the relations es tablished in the Last. Le Nord says that one ot tuese is tne organization of the prin cipalities ; and the Debats says another is the special regulations for opening the free navigation of the Danube. Affif Bey embarked at Marseilles on Mondy, bearing the treaty to Constanti nople. A French officer of rank also em burked on a special mission to the Sultan from the Emperor Napoleon. BERLIN. Tuesday. The announcement of peace being concluded was made yesterday in the Prussian Chambers and received with cheers. i . ; LONDON. Tuesday evening. The funds opened steady this morning at the improved prices ot yesterday, and remained so till the close, norwitbstanding the announcement of a heavy fall on the Paris bourse. There was a great pressure for money at the stock ex change this morning, but the demand sub sided by the afternoon. T he fall at Paris to-day in the three per cents, was 1-2 to 3 4. t Correspondence of the London Times. THE SOUND DUES QUESTION. Copenhagen, March 20. 1856.- In a re cent meeting of the Conference the Danish Commissary, Mr. Bluhme, submitted a pro posal of capitalization of the Sound dues, according to which Denmark should re ceive 35,000,000 of Danish rix. dollars as indemnity for the abolition of the tolls, on the following conditions : that all I he Powers interested in the Baltic trade and navigation participate in the payment, and that it shall be agreed to by tne Powers represented in the Confer ences, Denmark reserving to herself to treat; separately with the Powers not rep resented as to their quota share. Tbat a sum of 2.335,088 nx dollars shall be considered as an indemnity for the lighthouse dues, and 32,664,912 nx dollars as compensation for duties upon goods. 1 hat the payment of the quota share of each of the represented Powers shall be guarantied to Denmark in a satisfactory manner The Danish Commissary further stated that the above-named sum was the minimum of indemnity which Denmark had the right of claiming. . According to this proposal the share of Great Britain will be about 10,000,00p Da- nisn money, (or about ,i,vu,uuu.j tne share of Russia about the same sum, that of Prussia about 4,500,000 Danish rix dol lars, that of Sweden and Norway about 2.000,000, that of Netherlands 4.500,000, that of France 1,250,000, that of Belgium 300.000,000 rix dollars, that of Spain ,000,000, and so on in proportion to the yearly average amount of dues each State has paid in later years. U ; You will easily .understand that it is of the greatest importance to Denmark tbat this affair should be regulated before the 1 4.th of June, 1856, the prolonged term of the expiration of the Danish-American treaty of 1826, as after this time any ex tremity of violent measures may be feared on the part of the American Government, i A ' TEKRlFIC CHAfiGE BALAK LAVA NOWHERE. " The Knickerbocker is responsible for the following "charge" given by a justice of the peace up in Ohio in a certain replevin case. Ihe charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava, or that of Charley May at the Resaca, was not a circumstance in comparison. Head and judge for your selves : Gentlemen of the Jury This is an action of replevin brought by against for the purpose of obtaining the canal boat Ocean Wave, iNo. 2, levied on by said , as the property of said .' . I shall first charge you as to the rule of constru ing evidence, namely: If you htve rea son to believe that any one wUness in this case has wilfully, maliciously, deliberately, and contrary to the peace and dignity of the State of Ohio, sworn to tbat which is false in a single instance, you are bound to believe that he has lied throughout." Mr. B , for plaintiff, inquired, "What if he be corroborated ?" The Court, with much dignity, replied : u Wait until 1 am done !" "And if you should find that the afore mentioned witness is corroborated or sus tained in any particular, by any other wit ness, you are bound to believe that said last-named witness lied alsq, in every par ticular of his statement I l am also re quested to charge you that you find in your verdict the value of the property at issue. " After some deliberation, 1 have con cluded not to do that, but will simply say : if you find, in your finding, that you have found you will have found in your find ing, whatever at that time you may find : On the other hand, gentleman, if you find in your finding, tbat you have not found you will not have found in your finding what you have to found ! JNow, gentle men, you have heard the testimony of the witnesses, the arguments of counsels, and my charge. Take the case I" AN EXACTING HUSBAND. Wvcherlv. the coined ut in. married a eirl of eighteen when be was verging on eighty. Shortly after, Providence was pleased in its mercy to the young woman to call the old man to another and better world. But ere he took his final departure from this world, he summoned his young wife to his bedside, and announced to her that he was dying; whereupon she wept bitterly. Wycherly lifted himself up in the bed, and gazing with tender emotion on his weeping wife, said ; "My dearest love, 1 have a solemn prom ise to exact from you before I quit your side forever here below. Will you assure me my wishes will be attended to by you, however great the sacrifice you- will be called on to make?" v Horrid ideas of suttees, of poor Indian willows beinir called on to expire on funer al pyres with the bodies of their deceased lords and masters, fashed across the brain of the poor woman. With a convulsive effort and desperate resolution, she gasped out an assurance that his commands how ever dreadful they might be. should be o- beyed. I hen Wvcherlv. with a ghastly smile, said in a low and solemn voice : "Mv beloved wife, the parting request I have to make of vou is that when I am gone here the poor woman sobbed and cried most vehemently J wnen I am in my cold grave fMrs. Wycherly tore her fiair when I am laid low the discon solate wife roared withgriefj when 1 am no longer a heavy burden and a tie on you uO, for heaven's sake 1" howled Mrs. Wvcherlv. "what am 1 to do " 1 command you, my dear young wife f"ves. ves. love" sobbed Mrs. w. on pain of incurring my malediction -y-e-s, dear," groaned the horror stricken wifej- - never to marry an old man again ! Mrs. Wvcher v dried her eyes, and in the most fervent manner promised that she never would and that faithful woman kept her word for life. WHITE LEAD.

'pHE existing condition of political parties, and 1 of panizan strife, naturally suggests the estab lishing of such s journal as the ''Southern Senti nel" oroDosej to become. The Dresent. indeed, is a crisis in our political history, never witnessed be fore. The Constitution has been invsded ; the lawa trampled and spat upon; religious liberty assailed ; ballot boxes broken and burnt; the landmarks of our political a ncesiry partially effaced ; the wis dom derived from a time-honored experience un seated: stransre snd Questionable men hsve been pushed nio high positions; and fanaticism, unchai ned from Its sxe and Us faggot piles in tne rvortn, is heard to howl among ui In he South. These evils, so tar as it numDle abilities snail serve. THE SOUTHERN SENTINEL Will endeavor to arrest. It will endeavor to incul cate a reverence for the laws as they exist, and for the Constitution, as it haa been interpreted by the wise men of the past and by the Fathers of the Democrstic faith. It willdefend nt only political but acLieiova liberty, and will do battle apainat ev ery political heresy that may appear, whethei hatched in caves or culverts, or open convention. The .sentinel will also, to relieve the monotony of politics, devote space to literary topics, origins I and selected, ss well ss to miscellaneous subjects, which shallinclude Agricultural and the latest Com mercial intelligence. In brief.no efforts nor ex penses will be spared to make the Sentinel one of the most useiui and efficient journals in tne .south. The first number of the Sentinel will be issued about the first of the next month, snd sent to sub scribers at the rate of 92 per annum : $2 50 al the end of six months, and S3 at the end of the year.
