The packet ship Calk.doxa, Captain Gr a h a m arrived yesterday morning from Liverpool. U'a have received by her London elates 15th Jir-e and Liverpool of the 16th. I event of immediate interest has occurred in England. The "public rejoicing?, which in many pliers were expected to be exhibited on account of the English reform bill having re ceived the Royal assent, had been postpontd until the Irish and Scotch reform bills should re

ceive the sane sanction. The Irish reform bill was far trotn giving general satisfaction, and Mr. O'Counel has addressed a letter to the re formers of Great Britian, urging many objectnti to it. He allege that while the English bill enlarges the elective franchise, the Irish bill diminishes it that the latier creates too h'gh and too aristocratic a franchise That it does not give Ireland her due aad fair proportion of representatives in the British parliament, and in shirt he siys. that it r.hou'd ba entitled " An act to restore to power the Orange ascen dancy in Ireland and to enable that faction to trample with impunity on the friends of teform and constitutional freedom." A spint of innovation on the tirne-hallowe I institutions of England continues to show itself in the proceedings of the legislative bodies, and

in various articles published in the newspapers. In the House of Lords, Lord King presented a petition declaring that church property was the property of the public, and might be disposed of in any way most advantageous to the public in terest. The pluralists in the church of Eng laud are loudly attacked by The Times, as is the Queen's Court the necessity of reducing the ex pense of which is strongy urged. The Fitz clarences, the illegitimate children of the King, come in for no email share of abuse; indeed indications of a coming important change in the political institutions of Great Eritian, forre themelve every where on the notice of the ob Server. To these the reform bills is bt the Stepping stone. Our Paris correspondent renders it unnecessary that we should allude to the state of things in France. We merely give one of the proclamations of the Duchess of Herri, to which he refers. It world appear that a definitive arrange ment has beeu made of the affairs of Holland and Belgium. It is high time for the interest of both parties. We are happy to perceive it stated from various quarters that the port of Antwerp is legaining fast it? accustomed cotn-merr-.af activity. We re gret to a Id tint rrivate letters have been received in towc, which say that the cholera ha? again brokeu out with great virulence in Hamburg. AmenVan Navy, "and the He'v.C.

From the Louisville Public Advertise,

Beacon of the 19th inst. Our latest information from the frontier is to the 10th inst. received by a gentleman direct from the army. He states that on the 4th, the main army uuder General Atkinson arrived at the foot of Kosh ko oong, formed by an expan sion of Kock river where the Indians had been embodied for soii.e time, and where, it was sup posed, they had ied, directing their course to the junction of White Water with Rock River. " A short distance above this point, they dispersed in small parties, entered a swamp near

me junction tnrougn wlaich tbey passed, and on

permitted them to elect their own officers, and

young lawyers and doctors aod inexperienced

men. who would promise not to enlorce military discipline, were chosen. You may easily imagiue the anarchy and coafusion that is the result. General Atkinson has with him sufficient numbers, but they are not under his command, and compose of horse, foot, and a largt; baggage train, entirely unfit to pursue Indiana through a country like this. Major 11. L. Webb arrived here the day before yesterday from the Fort at Dixon's, or Rock River, with thirty of his men, as an escort tn Captain Holmes and Lieut. Croman. the officers who have the supplying of the army wrth provision, Lc. lie is stationed at the Fort at Dixoc's, with his own command arid one company ot Ur.ited States infantry, uoder the command

of Captain Palmer, and has the arduous duty of

furnishing expresses to the main army and pro

tecting the fort. A general order issued by

General Atkinson, saying that the service re

quired was dangerous and honorable, has retained him in this service and away from the main army. The truth is, his troops are almost the only ones that are well disciplined, and

therefore it was, that Gen. Atkinson insisted up-, on his remaining and issued an order making it a post ot honor. "P. S, 1 have just learnt that General Atkinson and the 3d brigade of volunteers, together with the United States troops, have proceeded to Fort Winnebago to get supplies, and that an express has gone to our Fort on Rock River, directing your brother and his command to join the army. He is attached to the battalion of spits or videttes. who move in advance of the troops; of these there are three companies. ' The opinion of the gentlemen who are now

here from the army is, that the Indians are marching off for the Chippewa country and as you were so long stationed in that country and familiar with its topography, I need not tell yos that the war will be protracted until fall or winter. General Scott, with bis command, will leave Chicago on the 25th of this month for Rock River, and operate in conjunction with General Atkinson."
