      AMERICA . The Etna arrived at Southampton this day ( Friday ) . She brings New York news to the Gth instant . The democratic caucus on the tariff question hi looked forward to with great interest It is believed a resolution against changing the tariff will be adopted , with the important understanding that the decision is not to be binding on any member . The republican votes , however , in each house could carry a modification of the ,. tariff . From Mexico we learn that both political parties in that country are sorely pressed for money to prosecute the war , and the Juarez Government is much embarrassed by the English and French admirals demanding prompt payment of the interest due on the conventional honds . ¦ ¦

      FRANCE . The warning given to the Presse for its article on Austria is said to have been owing to the complaints of the Papa ! nuncio in Paris on account of the strong language used against the Pope and the Pontifical Government . At the same time full liberty is to be gi ven to the Cliarivari for anti-Austrian caricatures , which will probably be responded to at Vienna .

      Lbader Office , Friday Evening , February 18 th . HOUSE OF LORDS . The only business of . interest had relation to Lord Derby ' s reply to a question put by Lord Aielie that no bill as yet had been prepared by Government for the improvement of the system of education in Scotland , but communications were being had with various Scotch members , with the view of preparing a bill that would be acceptable to the different religious sects . Some routine business was transacted , and their lordships adjourned . . ' HOUSE OF COMMONS . Mr . Whit . esi . de took the oaths and seat for the University of Dublin , in place of Mr . J . A . Hamilton . Mr . Baxter gave notice that he should submit a resolution in connexion with Parliamentary Reform on Monday next . ' '¦ : THE PRINCIPALITIES . The Chancellor of the Exchequer suggested that the discussion on the double election should be deferred until the Paris Conferences had come . to a resolution on the subject . , . ¦ Mr * Stapleton , who had given notice of a motion on the subject , withdx-ew his motion . THE NEW PUBLIC OFFICES . Sir Bi Hall renewed the discussion on the new offices , and this occupied some time , but came to nothing . THR WEEDON INQUIRY . Mr . Turner explained the reason why the report on the Weedon investigation had hot yet been presented . The reason was , the accounts were in such a complicated and unsatisfactory condition that it would he impossible to render in an intelligible report for two or three months at least . . THE CHARLES AND GEORGES . Mr . Kingslake wished to know why the papers relative to the Charles and Georges French * slaver had not been laid before Parliament . Mr , S . Fitzgerald said the papers would be produced at the earliest period . He hoped the papers would be in the hands of the House by Monday or Tuesday next . He would take this opportunity of contradicting an enormous impression that had got abroad respecting Lord Malmesbury ' s views in relation to the alterations in the Navigation Laws . Lord Mahnesbury had neither said nor written anything to warrant the inference that ho would consent to be a party to the reenactment of the Navigation Laws ( Cheers . ) CHUKCH RATES . It was stated by Mr . Walpolk that on Monday night the Church Rato question would be brought oh . INDIAN LOAN . The discussion on the Indian Loan was resumed . Lord Stanley entered into an explanation of contain discrepancies between his statement the other night and some official returns , and afterwards moved a formal resolution for power to raise money in England for tho serviceof India . Sir C . Wood entered into a long statement to show that tho revenues of India were in a decreasing and not a progressive state ¦ He should not oppose tho measure , because it did not throw any special responsibility on this country . Sir E . P » nny ho concurred with Sir Charles Wood , -with reference to the finances of India , and the caro that ought to bo exercised in not bringing out tho loan under an Imperial guarantee . Unless yery strict economy was practised in Jndla it might perhaps bo advisable that the connexion between this empire and our Indian territories wore severed . After a good deal more discussion the resolution was carried , Tho other orders of the day wore then gone through .
