The Jum has arrived. the left LiVer- pool at 1.30 p.m. on the 20th, and Lou- ’ donderry on the 21st. She brings 174 passwgcrs. _ The Hibernian arrived at Londonderry on the forenoon of the 19th, and at Liver- pdol early on the morning of the 20th. V’President’s Lincoln’s emancipation mesâ€" sage attracted much attention in England. There is little time yet for newspaper comment: ' The Liverpool Post says there can be no, doubt that it will have an iiicalculable effect in Europe, and that effect Will be - most favnurable to the Northern cause. The'London Titties, in an editorial on the subject, says it is the most important . news since the split. ' ‘ The President’s avowed object is to re- cover the Union and the Border States. The proposition is important, not for its intrinsic likelihood of acceptance, but simply because it is a proposuion,a1d is the first bid made towards putting an end to the war. ( we may hope that others may follow, and that the North may gradually rise in its eflorts until something acceptable has been put forth. Tfie only reply of the South to Presi- dentlLincoln Iias been a resolution of the . Confederate House of Representativesâ€" to’burn all the cotton and tobacco that may be in danger of falling into the hands , of the invaders. ' ,In every point of view the proposal of the President gives great scope for specu- lation, and perhaps sotne glimpse of hope -â€"but it is for what it may herald, and not for what it is. Dr. Russell‘s correspondence to the Tunes is again dated from \Vashington. ’ .It comes down to March 3rd. and says the awcather prevented McClellan’s advance. . He praises the constancy and tenacity of the, Confederacy, and says that the Nor- thern trOrips were getting Weary of the war, and clamorous for furloughs. The Magistrates of Sunderland have issued a warrant for the apprehension of Frederick Colbornc Curtis, said to bega VG'eneral in the Federal army, who two years ago left his wife and six children chargeable on the parish of Sunderland. Gibraltar advices to the 1441i say that the Federal vessels Tuscarora, [no and Kearsage were at Algeria. The Lieutenant of the Sumter and an ex U. S. Consul at Cadiz, who were ar- rested at 'I anglers, were transferred from the 1210 to the [lamest Home, bound for Boston. It is said that they were put in Irons. Parliament on the 19th unimportant. A general meeting ofthe Atlantic Te- legraph Company was held in London on the '19th. The Directors’ report was adopted. Hopeful news entertained was aniioimc:d.

It was rumoured that Farini had acâ€" cepted the portfolio of Foreign Affairs. AUSTRIA. Great precautions were being taken by the Austrian Govornment on the Venetian frontiers. Advanced posts had been doubled, and garrisons augmented. Troops also had been pested along the line of the P9. The Emperor had gone from Venice to ‘Vicenza, A captain and two officers of the Aus- trian fleet had been arrested at Mantua, on suspicion of being partizans of the Ita- lian’cause.’ PRUSSIA. The ‘Democratic press of Germany is denouncing most bitterly the appointment of Prince Ilohenlohe as President of the Prussia-n Council, owing to his retrograde principles. > , GREECE. All the cannon of insurgents have fallen into. the hand ofthe Royal troups. A small garrison at Syria captured, and order Iias been restored at that place. Tbsurgcnts at Chunichlin had asked an‘ "amnesty and armistice for 2% hours, which was granted.

(Ill l'thlIMOND inclined. 44,1862. The Ministry Reorganized. As most of our readers are already aware, the vacancies which cently existed invthc Ministerial Cabinet have been filled up. The following are the appointments made, and which now await the approval of the people: Hon. Mr. Patton, Legislative Councillor for Saugcen Division, has been ap- pointed Solicitor General for Up- pcr Canada; Hon. .1. B. Robinson. member for Toronto west,Presi- dent of the Executive Council; Hon. Mr. Carling, of London, Re- ceiver General; and SirN. Belleau, Minister of Agriculture. Hon. Mr. Sherwood has been transferred to the Crown Lands Department.â€" Tliese gentlemen, who, by accept- ing office, have vacated their seats, will not, from present appearances, find much difficulty in being again returned for theirircspective consti- tuencies. There does not appear to be any opposition to Mr. Robin- son in Toronto, or to Mr. Carling in London. We understand, how- ever, that Mr. N. C. Gowan will oppose Mr. Patton; but it is the general impression that be has very little chance of success. We may therefore look upon the Minis- try as fully organized. There is one circumstance in connection with its present political aspect which deserves particular notice.-â€" The reform element has almost ceased to exist. The coalition which so long worked harmoni- ously, is now at an end; and we are once more governed by a Con- servative administration. are proud to say, that blind, exclu sive, unprogressive kind of Con- servatism that once held sway in Canada; but a liberal, progressive and enlightened ConserViitism, suited to the genius of the people and the necessities of the country. We are convinced that Canadi- ans have outgrown the disposition ' to admire American institutions that once existed among them; and a (i‘rovernrnent, resolved to pre- serve, inviolate all that, experience has sheer to be good, and receive with caution all utopian theories; willing to be guided by the light of experience, and to advance in lo- gislation as the people progress in intelligenCe; avoiding the sylla of democracy on the one hand, and the equally dangerous cliarybdis of high Toryism on the other, won d, at the present time, receive their united and cordial snpport. That such is the general feeling throughâ€" out the con'iii’iunity, is proven by the large additions which the last elections have made to the Conser- vative party, in the House. The fitCl cannot be ignored, that our legislation has of late years been advancing far too rapidly towards Republicanism. Our clusc proxi- mity to the United States has tended to assimulalc our institu- tions to those of our neighbors.â€" VVe have attempted to make laws as it were by anticipation; and it is not improbable that it may yet be! found necessary to undo much that Iarizing our government. orrosrifiou ’1‘?) THE NEW MINISTERS. SINCE panning the foregoing re- marks, we learn that Mayor Bowes has determined to COiilt-st the To- ronto West. riding with Mr. Robin- son. Mr. Bowes, it is generally admitted, is about the only man in Toronto who would have any chance of success in opposition to the new President of the Council. His great popularity as mayor ren- ders him quite a formidable antag- onist, He. will. .ofcourse be sup- ported by the Globe, and will doubtless receive the united vote of the Clear Grits; besides a re- spectable rninorily ofthe Conserva- tch party, to which he belongs.â€" re, : Not, wel The attempt, however, to defeat the Government candidate will de- prive him of a large number of his former friends, and diminish his chances of being elected on any future occasion. We cannot im- agine what possible object can have indUCed Mr. suddenly round and play into the hands of those who have hitherto been his most. inveterate enemies. The Globe for several years pur- sued him with the most malignant hatred, beginning with the date of his connection with the ten thousand pound debenture transac- tion; an it is well known that it was throu rh the exertions of the immediate friends and admirers of the Brown party, urged on by that that proceedings. were taken against him in the Court of Chancery. And now in return, Mr. Bowes acknowledges the com- pliment by using his best endea- vours to assist Mr. Brown to defeat the Ministry. The Mayor of To- ronto thus appears desirous of link- ing his fortunes with the very man who have taken the greatest pains to ruin him, and to become a tool in the hands of the greatest ene- mies of his party. He seems to exhibit an extraordinary amount of love to enemies. It is confidently asserted by the Quebec correspondent of the Leader that the Opposition will run candi- dates in London and Saugcen. fiw>fi (-â€"â€"â€"v~â€" . Plagiarism.

FIRE.â€"â€"A00tit eight o’clock yesterday morning, a fire occurred in a small wooden building on Don’sL, Used for the refining of coal oil. It appears that while the pro- piietor of the place, Mr. Joseph Archer, was in the act of putting the cover on the still, the oil suddenly boiled over,and com- ing into COtllflCl Willi the fire in the fur- nace, the building was soon in a blaze. The alarm was early given, and one ofthe steam fire engines soon reached the spot. A supply of water having been procured from a creek in the vicinity, the. fire was prevented from spreading to the premisrs , .

Special A special to the Times, dated off is- land No. 10, March 3lst, says, the river is falling several inches :1 day. The rebels have erected a large en- trenched camp in the bend of the river. directly in front of our gunhoats. An embankment half-aâ€"mile long, has been thrown up on the shore, behind which guns are mounted in large numbers. They are masked as yet, and we have no means of ascertaining what artillery they have pOsted at this point. Several batteries, however, are plainly visible. Their entrenchments", extend from the centre of the bend to the upper pornt of the island. '1 hey are constantly busy both with steam boats and men. The mortars were fired yesterday and to-day eyery fifteen minutes, with what effect we are unable to decide. The shells are all thrown upon the island. The rebels make no answer except an occasional shot at a transport. Occasionally firing is heard in the (li- rection of New Madrid, caused by en- gagements between the batteries which are placed on Opposite sides of the river below that place. . The New Orleans Delta of the 2611i. referring to the gallantry exhibited by Capt. Pucker in defence of the battery at Island No. 10, says that one single bat- tery thus far has sustained the brunt of the bombardment, repulsing the Federal gurr boats, and sending one of them back to Cairo crippled, for repairs. The Appeal says the recent reverses of the Confederate army are ncrving them with new faith, confidence and liOpe, and entertains no doubt of the u‘tiinatc success of the cause. Van Dora and Jeff. Thompson are con- centrating a large force at Pocahontas, Arkansas, preparatory to an attack on the Federals at New Madrid, and that Gen. . POpe will be coriipelled to evacuate. No damage had been done to Island N0. 10 up to \Vedncsday, but the Confe- derates had sunk two Federal gunboats. The works at Fort Pillow had been completed. General Pope is building flabboats at New Madrid, to transport his troops across the river to the Tennessee shore. in Mississippi the plaiiti-rs were piling their cotton ready for firing. A despiitcli, dated New Orleans 26th, says that the Confederate steamer Van derbllt foundered at sea with all on board. The Appeal is issued on halfa sheet,» ,and, in vieiv of the scarcity of lead. sug- gests that the lining of tea chests be run into bullets. The ladies of Charleston are corrtributâ€" , ing their iewels, silver spoons, watches and money, to build a gunboat, to he called the Ladies“ Gunboat. The gunboat Conestoga arrived from Island No. 10 to-iiight, and reports no change in affairs there. The mortars fire every half hour, but elicit no response. The rebel mail captured yesterday at Union City, contained letters from Cori- federafe troops on the Island,rcpresenting ‘ that the force there were disheartened and dispirited. ROLLo, Mo., April 1. Letters from our army in the South- west say that itlIOl‘tnallOll has been re- ceived there that the reoels under Price and Van Dorn, are moving towards Mem- phis, in response to a call from Beaure- guard for help, and all forces in the \Vest \Vestern 'I‘ennessee, for a great and desperate struggle. 'rnunidiiu EXPLUs‘lUN IN PHILADELPHIA. HARPOWING SCENES AND INCIDENTS. An explosion occurred in Philadelphia, at five minutes to nine o’clock on Saturâ€" day morning, by which upwards of fifty people were either killed or mangled. The scene of the accident was immediately opâ€" posite the City or h'llriyameiising prison.â€" A pyrotechnist named Jackson find secur- ed a heavy government order, to fulfil for which he had employed upwards of seventy hands, and worked vigorously, but it is thought carelessly. 'I‘hecartridge factory was a oneestory frame structure, located at the corner of Tenth and lined streets, and about fifty feet square. It is thought that five barâ€" rels or kegs of powder Were stored on the premises, and grains of that cornbustile are said to have been strewn Iosely mound the place. The arrangements for extinguishâ€" ing the fires were few and ineflicienl, and after the aCciden't the flairrcs burst out in the ruins, and, it is believed, burned to death many of the stunned and bleeding victims of the explosion. The accident was chronicled by a dull, booming souiid. followed soon after by the ringing of the city fire alarm bells. The scones were poignant and terrible in the extreme,llic ground being literally covered for squares around with patches of flesh, bones and brains. Our correspondent picked up a bit of skull, with the hair adâ€" hering to it, more than a block (an eighth of a mile) from the place, and a whole human head, afterwards recognized as that of John h’lclianey, was found in an open lot against the prison wall. Limbs, teeth, fingers and fragments of scalp were found upon the roofs of neighboring houses, and blood was smeared upon all the adjacent walls, A police officer was seen bearing a barrel filled with entrails, bones, and flesh, and relics of the terrible event re~ main in the hands of the residents in the shape of smeared and dripping fragments offiesh. The entire stomach of a man was found upon the roof of a house in Tenth street, and several females, their clothes aflaine, Were running hither and thither, avoided by the crowd, shrieking most pitifully. Some of the workmen were so literally and thoroughly blown up apart that. only the rernotest fragments of their hunts re- main. All the windows of the adjoining tenements Were demolished, and most of the household furniture prostratedy. The occupants of some of the houses were (1.9.x. , s literally taken up and blown into thel street. Pedestrians were likewise treated, and some of the convicts of the prison state that they reeled in their cells and fell to the floor. The whole building was blown to pieces, and what the explosion failed to destroy was accomplished by the flames that almost: immediately broke out. The tenements on Tenth and Reed streets were made hospitals for the time; and, as one by one of the dying and. mangled were carried out the spectators shrieked and grew sick over the sight. It is generally agreed that gross care» Iessncss was the cause of the accident; but as the son of Jackson was killed by the explosion, the citizens are disposed to sympathize with trim. A street railway passes the door, and the cars have been unable to proceed for hours, owuig to the encumberances upon the track. a THE GREAT EASTERN. \Ve may soon expect to see this stea.iier again in the port of New York, the comparatively slight loss on the last year’s most unfavor- able trials ofthe monster not having deter- red the directors from placing Iier once more upon this station. They are still con- fident the Great Eastern will become the leading passanger vessel between Britain and America. lain WALKER, has recently givon an ac- count of the last unfortunate voyage ofthe . big ship, which is remarkable chiefly for its . contradiction of the assertions ofan Amer- ican gentleman named TOWLE, to the effect that the ship was saved by his exer- tions and by a plan of his inVenlion where- by a steering apparatus Wrisriggcd where her rudder post gave way. Captain \‘VAL- KER asserts that Mr. TUWLE‘S plan was ' tried and failed. that ‘the first jerk’ sent every thing invented by Mr‘. Towle ‘ fly- ing.’ he himself devised a steering apparatus which had the. desired effect, and Will) that apparatus the vessel Was brought safe- ly into port. The cause of the accident, Captain \Yalkcr adds, was ‘an imperfect welding of the rudder shaft, which could ' not have been foreseen,’ and that‘ this rud- der post, or shalt, appears to have been an afterthought of the builders, and, unlike the other parts of the ship, was a slender , ' FEBRUARY Ist 1862. affair, built of plate iron, and intended as a shore or stanchionto prevent the heel of the vessel being strained. if she was put on the gridiron.’ Like Achilles, the big ship seems, then, to have been only vulnerable in the heel, and that through what may be called the carelessness ofher constructors. ' \Ve hope the Great Eastern will yet prove that she is all that her directors can wish. and sound even in the heckâ€"Scottish Amer riccm. On the 28th March a meeting was held at Cooksville to consider whether it was more advisable to grant $25,000 supply or to request the Legislature to repeal all spe- cial Acts relating to the Separation of the County of Peel from the County of York. The chair was taken by Mr. Hawkins, J. P. The meeting .was addressed by Mr. Blair, Mr. Starrat, Mr. John Tilt, lVIr. Ilyde, and other gentlemen; and the fol- lowing resolution was almost unanimously adopted :â€"â€"‘ That the best interests of the County will be advanced by the rate-payers voting and using eyery legitimate means to still keep up our connexion with the Coun- ty of York.’ The King's Cliallenge.â€"The King ex- pressed much indignation against Lord Mansfield, who had accused him in the Ilonse of Lords of having changed his opinion on the Catholic Question. ‘l’lc lied.’ Had 1 been an individual, I would have told him so and fought him. As it was I put the Archbishop OfCanterbury in a fright by sending him as my second to M ansfield, to tell him he bed. The Arch- bishop came down bustling here to know what he was to do? ‘So,’ said I, ‘go and do my bidtlingnâ€"feli him he lies and kick his behind in my name.’ The telegraph operator at Salt Lake communicates the intelligence that the snow on the mountains is about five feet on a level, and at one pornt (probably a ravine) it has drifted to a depth of forty feet, covering up the telegraph poles, wire and all. STRENGTH or 'rnr: NAVY.â€"-A return of the strength of the navy, on the lst of February, shows 414 screw vessels, and 111 paddle vessels actually afloat; besides these, there are 55 steam vessels building, 11 of which are irorncased ships, and 110 effective sailing ships afloat, 9 of which Were Iiue-ofâ€"battle ships, and 14 frigates. -â€"-â€"‘ ls Mr. Brown a man of means 1’ in- quired a lady visitor of Aunt Betsy. ‘ Yes, I should think he was,’ replied Aunt Betsy, ‘ as every body says he's the meanest lnan ‘ in town.’ On the banks of the Lower Danube the winter wheat w ill. it is thought, prove a total 103s, owing to the recent inundations, At Pesth the inalrkets have suffered in consequencc, both for wheat and rye.

It was found that the for- mer article would not take fire from a llighted candle, while the latter exploded on a match being field within two inches of it.
