e have telegraphic news from America to Jan. 15, Gen. Cameron had resigned the Secretaryship of War, having done so, it is said, at the suggestion ot tho President. He had been appointed Minister to Russia in the place of Mr. Cassius M. Clay, who will take a Command in the Federal aimy. Mr. A. M. Staunton had been chosen to till the vacant secretaryship, but neither his appointment nor that ot General Cameron to Russia had been confirmed by the Senate. Some excitement had taken place in the House of Representatives in connection with the Trent affair. W lien the bill fur defraying the expense of forwarding the contributions of the United States to tlie International Exhibition came before the House, Mr. Lovejoy, of Illinois, delivered a violent, speech on the surrender ofthe commissioners, and the bill was ultimately, tabled. Mr Lovejoy said .
\\ e can avenge the insult we have received from England. We will stir up Ireland. We will appeal to the English Chartists and to the French inhabitants of Canada. We will join hands with France and Russia to take England's proud Eastern possessions, and wo will take away the Crown from the English Government before wo have ceased. I trust in God that time will come. I believe wc should have been stronger for a war vmh England, for we should have felt the necessity of making short work of the rebels.— Home JSetrs, Jan. 27.
