Mons. St. Maria, the French Consul at Acapulco, is a passenger by the Golden Gate.

Barnum has been elected President of the Crystal Palace...

A large and enthusiastic meeting of the friends of the Nebraska movement, was held in Annapolis, Maryland, on the 8th March.

Mr. Booth, the editor and proprietor of the Milwaukee Free Democrat, has been arrested on a charge of obstructing the enforcement of the fugitive slave law, in the case of Joshua Glover, in Wisconsin.

A proclamation from the Queen forbids the export of machinery, guns and munitions of war. The Paris Monitieur also publishes a similar decree from the French Government.

England and France had admitted the neutrality of Sweden, but Russia has raised some objection thereto. A deputation of the Peace Society, headed by Joseph Sturge, waited on the Czar to try and induce him not to go to war. Nicholas received them civilly, but tried to make out that he was more sinned against than sinning.

Lord Raglin, the British commander-in-chief in Turkey, was in Paris on his way to the seat of war.

It is reported that the reply of the Emperor Nicholas to the letter of Louis Napoleon, contains the following. passage:"I have the firm confidence that my troops will reply in the same manner as they replied in 1812." If such words be really in the document, they are clearly intended to be a hit, as well as a prediction.

The Russian campaign was, it is true, the principal cause of the fall of Napoleon 1st, and the actual campaign will, in the opinion of the Czar, be the prelude to a similar catastrophe. The Czar is said to be laboring under severe illness; some reports state from gout, others from erysipelas, and was in a state of great irritation and excitement, which rendered him inaccessible to the advice of his oldest ministers. The utmost activity prevails in every department of the government, notwithstanding, and preparations for war are made on tho most extensive scale.
