LATER NEWS FROM EUROPE AND THE ATLANTIC STATES. [From the " Alta California," September, 9.]

Tun P. M. S. S. Northerner, Captain Randall, arrived in our harbour this morning at five o'clock, bringing dates from New Orleans to the 6th of August, and from Liveipool to the 26th Ju\y. Shu has brought 350 passengers, and also a large mail. Hy this arrival we have nine days later intelligence (August G) fiom the Atl-.ntic States, via Vera Cruz, Mexico and Acapulco, and the dates from Europe are to the 26th July. The Revolution in Cuba — Piobable United States Assistance! ! Ilungaiians Flocking to Join the Patriots ! ! Departure of General Lopez, &c. From a telegraphic despatch received at New Orleans, dated at New York, August 6th, it is stated that no instructions have been given by the Government to prevent the organization and departure of expeditions to assist the Patriots of Cuba. It seems positive, however, that the Government of the United States has oidoied the immediate concentration of a naval force in the Gulf of Mexico, as on the 2nd of August, at 5 o'clock p.m., the United States sloop of war Albany and steamer Vixen sailed from Pensocola, and the sloop of war Plymouth, at NewYork, received orders on the morning of the Ist. August to proceed in all haste iti the Island of Cuba, but in consequence of very heavy weather she was prevented from immediately obeying the oider : the nature of the instructions given to the commanders of these vessels was of course unknown. Whatever they may be, however, the first assistance fiora the United States in aid of i be Patiiots has left its shores ! On Sunday, August 3rd, the steamer Pampero departed from New Oilcans, with five .hundred men, arms, and munitious of war, under the command of General Narcisso Lopez in person. Among his volunteers it is said that there is a large number of Hungarians refugees, recently arrived in the United States. In descending tho Mississippi viver, the Pampero touched at Ford Jackson, and thero received on board six pieces of artillery, recently condemned and sold by the United States Government. Dunng the first days of the present week, several other vessels left New Orleans for Cuba. It is said that several other vessels, which had left other ports of the United States, via New York, Charleston, and^ Savannah, would unite nt a fixed point on the coast of Florida, where they would einbaTk about two thousand men, and proceed] to two different points, on the Island of Cuba, and land them on the same day, and at the same hour. Another version lepresents that the Patnpeio would piocced diiectly to Neuvitas where General Lopez would land his men and munitions of war, .liter which she would go in search of the vessels of the expedition. The Spanish Consul at New Orleans has, at a very heavy expense, charteied the steamer Cincinatti, to convey despatches to the Captain-General of Cuba. The Pampero is a small steamship, but of great speed, .she having been fust built for the U. S. Government; at Ih© same time, tho Cincinatti is equally fabt. The success of the expedition of General Lopez depends almost to a certainty upon the relative speed of thebO

two steameto. Ft is evident that the next ai rival will bring U 3 intelligence of stirring importance. The Telmantepec Difficulties. We learn from the N. 0. Evenitiy Picayune, of August 6th, by telegraphic despatch fjom Washington, that the Government have, decided to send Mr. Letcher immediately to Mexico with full instructions lelative to the Telmantepec difficulties. These instructions are said to be very favourable to the news of the Company. Ihe steam irigate Sarnac was oidcrcd to be in loadwess to transport Governor Letcher to Vera Cruz. The above is the only new 3 of impoitance reflecting the Telmantepec question found in the American journals. The National Intelligencer has reviewed its opinions relative to the subject, and now takes ground in opposition to the aiticle published and taken from the New Yo>k Coioisr and Inquuer. Important from Guayaquil— Revolution in Equador !— President Nova Banished ! By the Panama Herald of August 14, we are admed of a military outbreak and insurrection in the republic of Equador, and the expulsion of General Diego Nova, Presidenr. On the 17th ultimo, President Nova left Quito, the capital, for the purpose of visiting his family at Guayaquil. On hi& approachinggtbe city bo was met by a cavalcade of soldiers and newly-created officers, who, undei direction of Gene-ial Urbina, and pretence of forming an es,cott for the President and suite, surrounded him, then seized and made him their prisoner. A small vessel, called a man-of-war belonging to the Government, was then lying in the Guayaquil river, near its mouth. President Nova was hurried down to this vessel, placed onboard, and the vessel was ordered off. She sailed under '* sealed orders," so that no one knows her destination. Gen. Uihina immediately assumed the administration of the government, and ib now at the head of the Republic. Great dissatisfaction exists among the friends of President Nova ami bis family, at the manner in which he has been disposed of, though no fears are entertained aa to his entire safety. President Nova is about 55 years of age, and has a large family at Guayaquil, who are distinguished for their hospitality towards foreigners, especially Americans.

From Panama. The arrival of the Northener has furnished us with date' iiom Panama to the 15th ultimo. The papers leceived contain very little news of importance. The Sarah Snmls hence arrived at Panama on the 13th ultimo, her trip having occupied 29 days. The Panama Slav says : "We have not heard of a robbery being committed on the road, and only one in any of our hotels, for two weeks past." It is announced in the Panama Herald of the 1-1 th August, that the Panama railroad would be opened from Navy Bay to Gatun, a distance of ten miles, on or about the Ist of September. The steamers would then land and receive their passengers at the wharf instead of ihrough-twc miles of surf at Chagres. (By Tehgiaph to New o) leans.) The steamship Paci'ic had arrived at New York with dates from Liveipool to July 2Jrd, 1851. England.— The debates of Parliament present little of interest. There is, hovre^e-, a diris on of opinion in the Hoube of Lords on the subject of the Ecclpsiastical Bill. The bill for the emancipation of the Jews has has been lejected by the same body. The bill relating to Papal Aggressions was adopted at a second reading. Another serious riot has taken place in Liverpool, during which three persous where killed and many others wounded. j Messrs.
