Diet of Frankfort , the ensuing passages occur : — " Universal , peace has been restored to the world , and one of the most dangerous political complications has received , through the moderation and . disinterestedness of the Powers , a solution which will give satisfaction to the general desire , and will furnish to history a memorable example of the magnanimous union of the Sovereigns in their solicitude for the common interes ts . of humanity . ., . . . The enlightened activity , of all Governments , just delivered by the mercy of Providence from the burdens of war , which directly or indirectly weighed on all Europe , will now turn , in . rivalry of zeal , towards the development of th « internal prosperity and the moral and material welfare of their respective States .

AMERICA . ~ WaJuKXr almost engrosses the news of interest from the other side of the Atlantic . The Filibustering chief has sent to ifew Orleans for recruits for his army , and great e ? ccitemi ? nt prevails , among the population , who'for the most ' part are disposed to assist him . It is said by a writer from the spot that , should an attempt be made to resist the departure of the recruits , " serious consequences may follow , as -opposing force will certainly be used . Southern members of Congress are singularly united in favour of Walker . The Panama massacre excites _ strong indignation , and the Executive is pressed on all sides to take prompt action in the matter . Many members of Congress charge that tlie blood of every
American slain in Nicaragua should fall upon the heads of the Administration . The rejection of the Nicaraguan Minister has led to the invasion , and President Pierce is held responsible . " The Washington Cabinet has discussed , the propr iety ; of at once recognizing General Walker's . Gqvernment , and receiving as Minister Madro Kegiily , who , at the last advices , was at Washington . Messrs ,. Marcy and Cushing epposed the recognition for t he / present , . while , Pierce , Davis , and others were in favour of immediate recognition . It is thought by some that the latter will prevail . Walker has retired to Granada , and is fortifying the city . The ports of Greytown and San Juan del ITorte are blockaded by a fleet of JTxench , En glish , and American men-of-war .
A resolution submitted to the Washington House of Representatives , authorizing tho President to employ the land and naval force for the protection of Americans on the thoroughfares between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans , and for insuring the observance of the rights of those citizens , led to a discussion , but to no pructical result . Bolivia has been on the eve of another revolution , the object of which was to proclaim Santa Cruz President , and upset the Government of General Cordova . The plot having been discovered , seven of tho principal conspirators were arrested , tried , found guilty , and sentenced to death .

IRELAND . TirPKftAitT Bank : Judomknt . —Master Murphy gnvo judgment on Monday on tho applications nmdo by Mr . Wilson Kennedy and Mr . Vincent Scully , Q . C ., M . P ., to be removed from the list of persons liable to the liquidation of tho liabilities of tills concern . The Master stated at considerable length Mr . Wilson Ken-Hody ' s pPsitipn in respect to the bank , hia directorship , for which ho was entitled to a salary of 500 / . a year , and the importance and responsibility of tho duties attabhed to that olllce , which ho held down to the date of tho transfer , and , after recapitulating tho law of equity as arguod at tho bar , « aid that the cose must be determined by tho deed " of co-partnorshSp . Hifl clour opinion wus that what was dnno by Mr . Kennedy wtes not what lie ought to have done , Watf not whut ho was justified irt doing , and he hhould tbereforp et » nd upon tho list m n contributory . Mr . Vincent
Scully was differently circumstanced- Hewaspiacedon the list in the same position as Mr . Kennedy , but with a much larger amount of liability—namely , as a holder of seven hundred shares . Although he ( the Master ) had said there were features which distinguished the two cases , yet really Mr . Scully and . Mr . Kennedy stood in . the same position . . It appeared to him that Mr . Scully was held out constructively to the public , as a director of the bank , yet getting no court of directors to meet and doing everything to give validity to the transfer of his shares , he must have had knowledge of the infoxv . mality connected with that transfer , and he was possessed of the knowledge which , prompted him to sell out He ( the Master ) apprehended , then , that Mr . Scully ' s application could not be sustained in a court of justice . He was the honest bonajide holder of the shares , and his name must therefore remain on the list without qualification . —It is understood that this judgment will be apr pealed against to the Master of the Rolls .
John Sadlexje ' s Assets . —The Dublin Freeman has a statement to the effect that the Crown , on the memorial of creditors to the extent of 250 , 000 / ., has agreed to appoint Mr . Anthony Norris , of Bedford-row , London , and one of the creditors , to be administrator for collecting the assets of the late John Sadleir . Mr . Norri * has consented to act under the authority of the Crown , and will lose no time in realizing for the benefit of the unhappy creditors large sums stated to have been invested by the suicide in various securities both at home and abroad . This step will , perhaps , afford a solution to the prevailing mystery with respect to the disposal by the deceased of the gigantic funds realised in the course of his successful career of fraud . —Times . The Murderers of Miss Hini > s ( Dunne and Murphy ) were executed on Friday week . Bursting of a Boiler . —The boiler of the Nimrod steamer , from Liverpool , has exploded off Cork . Six men have been killed
Smith O'Bbien . —A strong desire ( says the THunster News ) prevails in Clare to return Mr . William Smith O'Brien as one of the representatives at the next election .

NAVAL AND MILITARY . Close of the Crimean Inquirt . —The Board of General Officers reassembled on Monday ( the 23 rd day ) , to hear the reply of Captain Heath to the statements of Colonel Gordon , with regard to the inconvenience which was occasioned by his remaining outside Cossack Bay , and his complaints that the returns furnished of the transport of sick and wounded were signed by Lieutenant Hutchinson , instead of the responsible officer , Captain Heath . Captain Heath denied that any inconvenience was felt from his anchoring outside the bay , and read letters from Lieutenants Goss and Scott to show that
the sick and wounded were never kept on the shore waiting to be placed on board the transports . After some desultory and unimportant conversation , the President stated that , as he bad received no other applications from persons complaining of the Report of the Commissioners , the Board would adjourn . This is supposed to be tantamount to the close of the inquiry altogether . —Sir Charles Trevelyan has forwarded to the Board a lortg statement vindicating the conduct of the Treasury during that period of the war when the Commissariat was under the control of his department . ;

SANITARY REPORTS . Health op London during this Wekic . —In tho week that ended last Saturday , the deaths of 1094 persons—namely , B 38 males and 556 females—were registered in London . In the corresponding weeks of ten years , 1840-55 , tho averngo number of deaths was 1020 , which , if raised by a tenth part for comparison with tho deaths of last week , which occurred in an increased population , becomes 1122 . It appears that tho rate of mortality lust week was slightly below tho average . The deaths referred to dineaf ) es of the zymotic or epidemic character wcro last week 242—a number which differs little from the corrected average of corresponding weeks . But typhus , under which head canes of common fever aro included , is at present more fatal than any
othor disease in the same clans , and shows a disposition to increase . The deaths caused by it , having boen in rccunt wcelcH gonerally less than 60 , rose last weok to 76 , of which thoHo that occurred in tho eastern divSaion , embracing Bethiial-groen , Stepney , and other districts , exhibit a decided preponderance in number . A boy at 7 , Frying-pan-alley , Clcrkenw « ll , who had not been vaccinated , died of Binall-pox . Ho was six years old , and tho « on of a labourer ; and Mr . Goddard , tho medical attendant , observes that a stable could hardly bo found so deficient in all the elements necessary to health aa the ro 6 m in which hia patient bad lived and died . Fatal cases of diarrhoea wens 15 , which in tho same aa tho average , Hernia was tho cauao of death in eight cases
