M. at 10.6mertne, in the forthuming rumba of his H Coors tam ier de la Littiratare"—es will be seen from as extract in soother part of our impressica of this day—preeents se with a emifesaien of his intended policy, bad his improvised Goveramest of 1848 lasted, *kith we have read with the &spat regret. We would not have believed it of M. Di Laseuxisin, had may ether person this himself told as. Bat we annot help believing hies, though there are some who maintain that this exposition is an after thought. Be this as it may, whether M. Di IaNAIIIII6 really contemplated the ttssasarsa he now attributes to himself in intutioe, or whether be merely bouts At them with vat ones—it is painful to learn that hie notions of domestic and foreign policy are so lamentably erode sad illiberal. That he played a dignified and lateestial pert at the commencement of the Resole- ties et 1848 is certain. Even his own sayiap and doing cannot deprive him of that honour. Bat what lover of liberty can place any reliant* spots him u a tutors champion of the cense after the 03111606011 to which we are now directing attentioo He tells us that immediately before the subversion of his Government he had cansed &dune to be pre pared for embodying en army of 60,000 mien, to be called the Army of the Alps, and placed en eeltelles from Lyons to the frontier of the Var. The • jut of this army he has as was two folds" it was intended in the first place to be ready to enter Pied mont at the fin* sign of deeger to that power ; I. the mood to be ready to uprose the religiose, civil, socialist, and demagogic agitations which might break out at any moment is the loath of NSW% mote impulsive than the north, at Lyons, at Avigarsa, at Marseilles, at Thane, throughout the whole hada of the Saone and the Rhone." With regard to France thus words show that M. Di LAltaltTINI, had he been able to retain his hold of power, intended to govern her by the sward. He wee prepared to slime' ail "u. lotion * by the army. The dislogistie sprsls he applies to the agitations he expected sons for nothing. Socialists, demagogues, and ether ugly names, only mean that the persona to wham they are applied differed in political opinion fran AL Di LAMAISM& K. Di LAMAltilia did sot lend to appeal tor support to the ensnare, 110, eves to the National Guard. He threw Mewl( upon the army. After sock a confession it was scarcely oneseary for M. Di LA Aortae to tall as that he is "sot a Radical Repubacan, a sabvenive Republican. a elsinsnical Republican.* He is, in fact, sot a Republican at all, bat a would-be dictator. aspiring to govern by his Pontoriaa gouda. Between Lemsarnox L end Nuoiacer lIL, in so far as civil liberty is eceormed, there is boding to chum. The exposition of his intended policy as regards Piedmont is squally mosetress. " Oar army," he goes on to say, "was asset to deemed from MO Alps into Piedmont, to cover that kingdom, to rally the fragments of the gallant Piedmonts,' irony, to make face to the Austrian', and to fight, if it was sumpary to fight, for the svanatios end Wipes donee of the whole Pcminsula." M. ns Lntarnxs has a strange way of "basking his Moeda" He is an of those who. according to the proverb, would " lock the stable door after the steed has bean stolen." He did not repose he tells us, to interfere until aftsr the Piedmonts's army bad been beaten; the French army of the Alps was not intended woo-operate with the army of Piedmont, bet to 4 , rally its fragments." Again, " the independence of the whole Peninsula "lea flue sounding phrase; bat, unluckily for himself, IL Di LAKAIITINI proceeds toexplain what he means by it. " What would have happened the is Italy P We are not in the newt of its destiny ; bat we ens cos adeptly say what would have taken place, what France would have advised, what is consonant with Um old °Destitution of the fin or six Italian Ws mean a patriotic and unanimous federation of all these difierent Italics, preserving their differing political Amadeu, under the protecting mediation of Fleece. The national and military unity of these political diversities would have ben something analogous to the Confederation of Hanle towns, kingdoms, and republic of Peloponnese', and the islands, under the guarantee of the Meoedoneas phalanxes." Perfectly analogous there can be no doubt it would have bees; the liberty enjoyed by Italy " under the guarantee of French armies," would have closely resembled the liberty of Owen soder the Macedonians. All foreign rakes are of nesseity oppressors. The Austrian, se good-matured and eompanicesble at home, Incomes a brats when invested with power in Italy. In France the French are saliently amiable and sociable, bat the annals of Oursany can tell what she suffered under the yoke of NAPOLIIOII.

There is something worts than lischisvellien in the avowed foreign policy of M.

(PEON OUR SPECIAL COR (IT SLBCTIIIO MOSCOW. Arent 29. The wonting et the day flied upon for ths edema entry of the Emperor into Moscow was ushered in by louring clouds end rain. About midday, however, the atm broke through, and the afternoon has been bright, and calculated to show off the gorgeous pro. melon to advantage. A little after mid-day a salvo of Rise gone from a battery posted opposite the Tab/snow Onvent, fol lowed by a peal el bells from the Cathedral of the Assumption, gave the signal to all the bells of Moscow to begin jangling. Their deafening clang hoe on fiend ever since, and wily those who have wit- Deemed can imagine the Boise and vibration of the air produced by such a mesa of tintinsabulary metal. As soon as the hennas et 'lawn broke oat, arms and spectators of all ranks and degrees hurried to their posts. At Si p.m. the Imperial procession left the Pe trovsky Pelson First same a "Maitre de Pollee," with twelve mounted genstranies to clear the way. The Emperor was preceded by his body guard in their magnificent uniforms, squadrons of Cossacks of the Eitel Sea and of the regiment of Guards, the re peer:amine of the AM& lealessv on horseback, all in uniform, Unrepresentative. of the Asiatic popula tions which acknowledge the sovereiguty of Russia, with valets, noway', and runners of the nen Alter this mixture of European and Orien tal costumes ease Masters of Ceremonies and others with their badges of odes. After this train, in which Europese sad Oriental finery were strangely mingled, same Alessader Nieolsievitch, on horsebeck, attended by the Minister of his House hold, the Minister of Wan and his aides-champ. The Priam of the blood followed, all on horseback. A long train of splendid carriages came next in order, containing the Empress, the Empress Mother, the Grand Duchesses, and the Priam. of Oldenburg. ;allowed by their ladies of bazaar. Squadrons of Cuirassiers closed the procession. At 4 p.m. precisely a salvo of 71 guns announced that the Emperor wee entering his ancient capital. The Military Governor-General of Moscow received his Majesty at the outrun of the city, at the had of his employee. The magistrates and the hatable§ received hie Majesty at the estrum of the quarter ailed Zennnoi Gored. The marshal and the nobility of the government of Moscow received him at the entrance of the quarter called Bieloi- Gored. The Civil Governor and the civil astbori ties of the city were stationed to naive him at the gate of the Reserreetios. Here a brief halt took place, daring which the Emperor, the Empresses, and the Princes and Princesses of the blood, dimsointed and knelt before the image of Osr Lady of Iberia. This cerersosy over, the procession again moved °award ; was received at the gate of the Saviour by the Commandant of Moscow sad his staff; and in front of the Cathedral of the Assumption by the Directing Bente. All along the roar• of the pro cession the houses were decanted, sad the clergy stationed at the gates of their respective churches with their images and mosses. The seen matrons of the assembled multitudes were sathuslar tie, and distinctly heard above the din and Glasgow of the bells. Thor Empeor, the Empresees, the Princes, and the Prisons's, demanded from their horses and car. daps is frost of the Cathedral of the Aesomptioe, at the stair which is Gaited Mumma Kryltso. Intel ligence of this event was forthwith thundered forth by a salvo of 86 guns. The portion of the Imperial cortege which preceded their Majesties kept on their way round the • cathedral, and nob as bed the estrh entered it by the north gate. The officers of the Court eosspletad the eirele of the building, sod steamed themselves is frost of the south gate, to await the eosin out of their Majesties. The Holy Synod and the fusetiowszies of the eatkedral met their Majesties at timpani; and preesded them into the thank cheating the mooed esatiele for Palm-weak. Atter kissing the images sad relics, their Majesties proceeded to the cath►drals of the Archangel Michael and the Ammeiatioe, is both of which the ememony of kissing the images sad relics was gone through. Is the cathedral of Bt. Michael they also prostrated themselves before the tomb of his Majesty's an cestors. On quitting the cathedrals their Majesties, stoma peeled by the court, walked to the Palace of the Kremlin. At its pte they were received by the mart clergy with the cross and holy water. The Archbishop of Moscow here presented the Emperor with bread and salt i and hareediately afterwards a salvo of 101 pee announced at 6 p.m. that the Im perial family had entered the palace of their an agora. The metallic hurricane from the lanamenble raturchni still vibrates through the air and shakes the walk. At night the city is to be illuminated. milts* inseam Then than wee the per to be stamped, and the ticket to be paid for e and the pines to be taken, the latter by so seems ea easy task, se the military often sad their bodies, who are privi leged to enter everywhere and before everybody, had secured all the seats, not only for themselves, bat for their smaller luggage, their Italian grey hounds, parrots, and railway wrappers. However, at last we were fairly afloat, and trudging leanly along ear little journey of six hundred and seventy mote, at the rate of about twisty miles an hour. The flat else. carriages, which are coostracted on the AXIOTICIIII plan, are comfortable and even elegant, and the power of walking up and down, and maw eionelly stopple, out on the little gallery at the sad for a mouthful of fresh air, very mach diminishes the weariness of the almost interminable journey. We bad as oar fellow-peemegers Russian generals en route for the review, Russian mantissa ditto for the balls, and Russia; and German doctors specu lating on the probable oasts of the dinners. In one corner of our " wipe" sat a Mosul= prince, some juvenile Schaniyl palter, magnificently at tired in his national dress, tastefully harmonised with the uniform of the Russian army. He was a remarkably fine-looking man, end seemed as happy and ectatented as if nothing bad ever occurred to cease a difference of opinion between him and the Georgian Viceroy. He was on the beet terms with the Rts. slats *Sons, and chatted and nuked with them an day long. The country through which we passed was es uninteresting as could possibly be imagined. For the first one hundred vents it was bare and level as a steppe, without • single tree to break the monotony of the prospect. But as we neared Moscow, and left Bt. Petersburg further be hind, the landscape Inseam more mellow; clumps of tress first appeared, then plantatioae, while the open country became tinted with the green of the meadow or the golden hues of the corn-field. Now and then the fantastic spires of a Greek nicautery cut the horizoo, and comfortable farm-house gave reassuring indication of human habitation. Then we had little rivers to cross, over well-constructed bridges; and mos of greater pretensions, celled, I think, the Nidska (I do mot pledge myself to the orthography), covered with a flotilla death:only constructed bargee bringing down corn from the Volga for the consumption of the capital. We had rain in light showers, even down teems and perfect torrents, with now and then a flub of lightning or a gleam of sunshine; and, lastly, some regular stoppages on the road, varying is duration from ten minutes to two hours, and giving the nobles ample time foe their tsedi and the map's far their darling vodka. Ton may depend upon it, the opportunity was not neglected, as usury station the refreshment roam exhibited the most motley groups imaginable, while the waiters were embarramed at once by the pressure of their duties and the scarcity of change. lodised, I cannot call to my mind a single instance in which these truly oonscientioss man being entrusted with • three-rouble note were enabled to get back to the passenger who had entrusted it to him before the departure niche train. At, I thick, ma sixth station, we were com forted by the agreeable intelligence that we must wait an hoar and a half extra in order to allow the passage of a special coned con taining the Grand Duke Constantine and his suite. I was comforted under the delay by being enabled to gat an imminent view of his imperial highness, who same down upon the platform and nodded to and chatted with everybody about him. It was pleasing to see the confidence with which the humblest people came up quite aloes to him, and the offhand friendly way in which he resolved their compliments. There were no soldiers, no butt-ends of muskets to keep off the common Iterd, but everything wee trusting, kiedly, and without any of estatioa of coadascensims. I believe that in consequence of his identity of name with his uncle, and the way in which he has been mixed up with resent naval operations, he is lcokcd upon in England as a very terrible Allow, both in appearance and manners ; but nothing can be further from the reality. He is a tall, slight, well-made young man, with good features and a pleasant expressions, and seems to be on the beet terms with himself and every one about him. He is, in short, the last man in the world whom from his mimeses* I should reckon dugongs or disagreeable. Besides this, he has a etesiderablo re putation for wit sod sareastio humour, sad many of kis sayings are in pastel aircolatioa. I shall give you one or two as specimens. To enable you to un derstand the first, I must premise that the Americans, whose wonderful sympathy with Russia during the last war it was so difficult to understand, have made several excellent specalations in this country, amongst others the contract for keeping the Moscow Railway in repair, by rebid. it is said they nett a clear profit of some 200,0001. a year. The Grand Doke, who is dissatisfied with this job, as well he may be, had lately some distinguished friends on a visit, whom he handed over to hie chamberlain to show them the sights of the capital. One day be asked that officer whether hie friends had seen all the sights, and being answered in the *Sanative, said, laughing, " Then go and show them the American contract, which is decidedly the greatest curiosity that could be exhibited in any eountry." The second story applies to his Imperial Highness's early days. He war, SIP is well known, appointed to the nominal command of the fleet when a child, bet even at that early age was anxious to make it a reality. One day, when on board a mu dwar, he promoted an officer who pleased him, bee t the appointment was not confirmed, while the young 'tibial was reproved. The next morning he ap peared before the Emperor in fell uniform and ten dered his resignatioe, adding that he was a* admiral if he could not promote whom he liked. It is needless to add that this youthful burst caused considerable amusement in the highest quarter, and that the resignation was not accepted. But the Grand Duke hscnow pseud on co his rapid journey, the regular train following at a respectful distance, and at a pace which brought us into Marrow at noes to-day, after a joarney of nearly twenty-five hours. I must oaths. that, on first entering, the modern and suburban 'mama of the holy city disappointed met bat a visit to the Breslin and its neighbourhood, which I was not long in paying, restored and even strengthened all my foregoes con shalom. I shall take a %tare opportunity of paying a aeon lengthened visit, and writing a more carotid scooted of thin extraordinary warier; bat I could not resist the temptation of at once taking a glimpse at a puss which from infancy I had been hearing and reading about as one of the wonders of the world. Accordingly I harried of plunged into the labyrinths of the Chinese city, where I was nearly devoured by the worthy dealnene, citi zens of this &stern Petticoat-hue, and soon found myself is the centre of the "Beautiful Place; which certainly has a very fair slake to that ap pellation. The monad of hammy, attracted an to the still unfinished triumphal arch by whisk the Impacr is to enter the sacred peeing* and sod denly I toned myself in promo, of the groat bell, which has been se asearately weighed, massured, and described over sad over again. It is, in truth, a tromendone ends& and if in sounding order would make a Met @omens report. The broken piece lies oleos beside it, and more than any.' thing she enables one to from a just ormeeption of the eneentoes mine of the bell itself. Passing under the "Seared gate," likes good Christian, hat in hand, lin a moment stood at the very grille of the Church of the Amemption, in which the great are monist is to take place. It has been closed some days to the public, but a good-natured deacon took pity on my curiosity, and politely invited me into the interior. What a scene of barbaric magnifies:as, historic reminisoence, and political suggestiveness Parsing through a darkened vestibule I suddenly felt myself almost dazzled by a perfect blase of gold and colour. The walls were every inch covered with freemen and mosaics, in heavy gilt frames, mid the great central pillars that support the cupolas decorated in a similar manner. Although the church is small, the loftiness of the ceiling gives it a most tinning appeareees, and the vague isdistinctoen with which the comparative gloom enables you to take in the detaih produces in the mind a peculiar feeling of awe and reverence. As works of art, few would ha bold enough tn defend these elaborate de corations, but they are the signs of a sentiment, a power, and a policy, and, looked upon in that light, must always be object, of deep interest to the spec tator. Greek pants were chanting their vespers in one corner, while carpenters were hammering away in another at the gorgeous astride upon which the Emperor is to kneel while the metropolitan places tte crown upon his head. Everything was resplendent with gold, and velvet, and ostrich feathers; but a glance was all I wet permitted to take, sufficient to convince me that the interior of the church will not socommodate more than about 600 minims.

Tie explanation is not altogether eo tisfaotory, for it is certain that the "law's delay" does not usually require two or three years to prepare a judgment by default. The following appears in a Parisian correspondent* of the Indtspetsiones Beige: _ _ _ Jut as the Emperor was about to leave Para fir Mar tha, the sommiesioa of the United Mutest Benefit flo dein welted upon his to present their general report. The president of the mautisdon had a moat important con mention with the Emperor on this meesion.

"I mast,"' said the Emperor, "I masa abso lutely lad a remedy for this mate of thip." Each was the rapid conversation, the sccar.cy of which I can certify. It is said to-iry, that to carry out the imperial promise, a project et law is in preparation, aging a text!' of house rent, to be based upon the coat prim of the home, sad the money that may have bees laid oat upon it. It is too car. teas that the pretensions of t-s landlords have attained the utmost bearable limits. Rents are augmented every quer. ter; workmen, clerks, porters, end people of small property know not where to bones themselves. The sufferings arising from this came, j cited to the alimentary aisle, the finan cial alas, and the moisetary crisis, under the life of the Parisian labourer intolerable. The latest news of the Emperor and Entprese is contained in the Meuayer de Bayonne: Their Imperial Majesties, whose health is exeellent, eon.

It is not thought that he will meet with any difficulties, the Bing of Siam, having manifested a favourable disposition towards all European states without distinction. There were considerable oscillations at the Bourse on Saturday connected with the settlement. The Bente for account dropped at one time as low as 701 r., but, as the option of premiums wrs done at 70fr. 100., which was better than had been expected, there was a rally, and the lest price was 70tr. being a rise of 200.

This sirens stanim will aocount in some measure for the transmis sion of gold from England to France. The Cnisstitestionnel, in obedience to the key-cote sounded by the Mon tear in praise of O'Donnell's coup 'flat, speaks in a tone of indignant resentment of an artkde in the Alforreing Poet, condemning the dissolution of the National Guard. " What can that journal mean," it saki, "by pretending that Queen Isabolla's minister will , be made to turn, before the fifth art of his drama is finished, that although he may have dissolved the National Gaud, the men composing it still exist!' Is the journal in the is. cret of prepavatioss for a fresh insunection P If so, we have a right to uk how and in what character it has obtained its information."

TEE JOURNEY FROM ST. PETERSBURG TO MOSCOW. (FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.) MOSCOW. Avow: 21. I shall not soon forget the fatigue and semiotics@ of the twenty-four boars' journey by railway which has at last landed me wifely, this dry, in the holy and truly beautiful city of /domow. The ran is at say tints no mean schievanout, bet the trouble is tenfold increased at the present Rament by the unexampled Mitts from all parts of the world of " distinguisbeal foreigners," civilised sad uncivilised, which is now overflowing the palaces, the inns, and the iodgiti• houses. When I entered the railway station at Um top of the Mead, yesterday morning, I wu reminded of London-bridge on the Bpeora morning, with this differenee, that instead of sporting men, jockeys, and the metropolitan holiday folks, I foetid myself enr• roundedandalmostersewheleredbypriaeseenimejiks, Cirmasiaas mad Georgie:es, leadesees Greeks sad ugly Tartu., lease to Parislea tailettes. sad their bums is the oedema' caftan sad eannet, Jews and illetainb Poles sad Hangeziani, pints and Levkas; is &el, every variety of ratans, colour, sad odour theta. *pi& the varied ram composing the great Rai sin nation.

The suppression of the National Guard, while it has definitively cut off O'Doenell'a last chance of sup• port from the progression, has encouraged the " mo derates "—such is the present designation of the reactionary party in Spaia—to speak out plainly. Their organs in Madrid now openly threaten O'Donnell with dismissal if he dare to halt in the tyrannical course which be has begun. The following language of Al Parlamento is clear enough In times of revolution every situation has its natural chief. Espartero was the recognised leader of the progressist party, and his name alone given a certain political order of things—implied the ezistenoe of a National Guard. But, in an opposite sphere of politics, the name of Narvsez is the conceit. Crated idea of a strong dieciplined army, devoted, above all things, to the throne and sociel order. When we are so circumstaneld that political questions are not to be decided by discussion and epee clam it a parliamentary way, but the cannon and the musket are obliged to interfere, such a situation naturally calls to mind the regenerator of the old army and the creator of the present one, ameral Narvaer, is who's hands this army never hesitated or went astray." This hit at O'Donnell is very palpable. (710 w A, IPICIAL CONAZIFONDINT.) Ton cannot imagine the great activity which is now employed by the at :.olutist party. Intriguing at Madrid, they have succeeded in imposing upon the cabinet the measures prepare 3 for it according to the system of el rey neo. Io the provinces, sided by the money which is supplied by I the French Lvgitimis: party, they are get" dog up a general insurrection, which will be provoked by the rigorous measures the government must take, when the opposition to the law of dine morasation shall have been thoroughly manifested. Abroad, the absolutists are publishing nein cal culated to prepare the public mind for new kind of convention of Berger& The Carlist chiefs are well aware that any rumour, however absurd it may be, will always find people ready to let it pass current and give it circulation. For instases, look at the curious scheme of an arrangement, which some Belgian clerical cosi respondeats of the claricaabsolutist Spanish journals have lately propounded—namely, that the Spanish cabinet should proclaim a quasi constitution, recog raising the concordat, and decreeing the inviolability of the privileges of the clergy; and then, the constitution having been pro claimrd, that Labella should abdicate in favour of the Princess of Asturias; and that the Cerlist provender should also abdicate on his side, in favour of the son of his brother, Deal Jun; that there should be a marriage between this child and the Queen's little daughter, the Princes, of Asturias; and that, dewing their minority, a comma of Regency, under the presidency of O'Donnell, um. posed of Concha and &nano for the hlodendo party, with Cabrera and D'Elio for the absolutists, should govern the country! This absurd canard has been carefully translated into Spanish, and distributed everywhere throughout the Basque provinces, and in Arragoa and Catalonia. The news from the provinces does not present mach of interest. Arrests continue to be made in Catalonia. At Barcelona the price of bread still rises, in spite of the fall of prices in corn and flour and there have been some tumults at the doors of the bakers. From Lerida it is announced that Marla is about to publish a statement addressed to hie con stituents, in which he will narrate the events that preceded and have followed the counter revolution, from July to the present day.

A letter, which I have received this morning from Madrid, informs the that the famous Union Liberal does not now muster a single partisan; the Epoca alone continues to sustain it. The Moderate fac tions, represented by the Partamento, the Espana, the Occident., the Diario Espanol, and the Leos Espanol, repudiate it; the r orlon would accept it yet, with progressist tendencies.
