From Europe.

By the steamship Jura, which arrived at Quebec on Saturday, we have five days later European news. It was stated that the Confederates had made proposals to the Spanish Government for recognition, with the sanction and support of Napoleon. Lord Palmerston's Government had been defeated by an immense majority on the vote to purchase the late exhibition building. There had been a great are on Water street in Liverpool, which destroyed one million dollars' worth of property. The debate on Mr. Roebuck's motion for the recognition of the Southern Confederacy had been adjourned by the House of Commons to the 13th.
