Latest from England.
At a late hour last evening arrived here, in 54 days from Liverpool the British barque Albion. She sailed January 10, and brings London papers to the 5th; but they contain nothing of moment. The Morning Chronicle of the 5th, says:
"We have received Paris papers to the 30th ult. They contain nothing of importance. We cannot find from any intimation in them, that Buonaparte has quitted Paris. As to the negotiations at Amiens the papers know nothing of the matter."
The Paris papers intimate, that the St. Domingo fleet has not returned. The sailing of different squadrons from Holland is mentioned; and the sailing of the St. Domingo fleet must have been permitted by our government.
When the Albion left Liverpool, there was no talk of the definitive treaty having been signed, nor was this event expected soon to take place.
As the letters by the Albion, were not delivered last night, we can say nothing about the state of the markets, &c.
A passenger on board the William and Margaret, from Havre de Grace, informs that the definitive treaty was not signed.
