Wo of the . present generation listen very Ma taampe* the mars that the murrain is spreading and Wally among the stock breeding • of the Continent, and that it has ado* raaehrd the districts whence our iagarlilliiii of cattle and hides take place. Ig Prow aeklilik inquiry into the disease has been galitiaa is ma time, and the malts, as published, do nag dmedsg—the mortality being estimated at 110 per coat of those attacked; and scarcely any cattle escaping attack where the disease has once appeared. In Kuria the price of tallow has already risen very oonaiderably, in anticipation of the coining scarcity ; and perhaps every Government but our own is adopting measures for excluding all new cattle from healthy districts. They enyy us our in sular position which renders precautionary methods so euy (supposing the diseeae to be contagious); but we seem to be using our insular position only as an excuse for carelessness and delay. There was some joking in the House a few weeks ago on a condemned calf; and some loose Custom-house orderswithout any stringent provisions for their enforcement, have been paraded to keep off inquiry, and the dread which would solemnise the country if the peril were fully under stood. If we had a little more knowledge, a little more thought, even a little more imagination (to easeeive the horrors of a murrain and its conse quences), we should not now have been waiting ;to sea what Government will do to keep the disease tram our shores. Some say that certainly nothing can be more dreadful than a murrain in the old times, in all oar i islands: but then the conditions of living were so 1 different from ours! The very worst we have an , account of was before the development of agriculture. 1 when the people depended almost entirely on cattle and game for, not only food, but clothes, shelter, and utensils. Some would not eat fish ; and some would not eat fowl ; but all depended on flesh f and when their cattle were all deed, they betook themselves (so it is said, truly or finely) to that species of dish which is had recourse to only in despair. At a later time, when there was a comiderable variety in the national food, and the meat for all winter and spring was secured by salting down in autumn, the owns. queues of a malignant epidemic among the cattle were nearly as terrible as in the days when the natives wore hides. No plague that ever visited the human inhabitants of Greet Britain was so donee tire of human life as some moraine have been. Awful as were the " sweating sickness" and the " black death," and every form of plague, the saw talky ended when the disease paned away, or soca after I whereas, a visitation of murrain is equivalent to a sentence of dearth. for a long course of years.

ITALY. PIEDMONT. (raom ova erictia. cows TURIN, MARen 27. Since I announced to you by telegraph the recall of the Austrian ambassador from Turin, and of the Sardinian from Vienna, I have been using every endeavour, in every direction, to obtain some idea of the effect these two events have had upon public opinion here. But, first, let me contradict a report which has been basely circulated by the Austro-priest party here—that Count Cavour, seeing to what danger such a rupture may lead, took every possible means to convince Count Paar that the fortifications of Alexandria were not in tended as a threat to Austria, but a prudent means of defence for Piedmont ; that Count Pair made some very strong demands for the restriction of the press, to which Count Cavour could not agree ; but that the danger of his refusal was so apparent, that he loot not a moment in ap pealing for protection to the great Powers. Now, be assured that there is not one word of truth in either of these reports ; that Count Cavour acted with that frankness and independence which are his characteristics ; and that as soon as Count Paar de clared his intention of leaving Turin, Count Cavour asked and obtained permission from the King to recall the Sardinian ambassador from Vienna. I believe, however, that the Austrian ambassador attempted to prevent this, hoping that Count Cavour would fall into the trap, and, leaving the Sardinian ambassador at Vienna, by so doing confess an inferiority to Austria. Now, as to the public opinion. Members of the Chamber of Deputies, on the subject being intro dueed, smile, and say there is nothing in it. Ask another que stion, or reason upon it, and they look grave, and finish by confessing the affair may turn out very serious, and that there is great danger of a collision and a rupture. Among the merchants and rich bourgeois they smile at the departure of the ambassador, wishing him a pleasant journey, as he is a good riddance, and the war long expected is soon to take place. But the people, the labouring population, take the common sense view of the matter, and confess that the two recalls are a decla ration of war. They talk about 1848; say that war has its miseries ; but as it mutt come, so much the better, we shall be quit of the "Croats," and have Italy to ourselves, and then all will have plenty of work. They have for some time been speaking of great increase to the Austrian troops in the garrisons in Venice and Lombardy, and these reports seem con firmed within these two days, thus showing that the recall of Count Pm was connected with warlike measures. But Austrian diplomacy cannot get on without quibble, or they wish to blind the Pied montese by pointing out in their official papers that recalls of ambassadors are quite of a different signification to passports being sent. Your publica tion of Count Rayneval's despatch, however, has given a sad blow to any faith in diplomatic papets and we have only to look to history, which shows that almost invariably immediate war follows the recalls of ambassadors. The Piedmontese and Aus trians are two such different peoples that the merest trifle may cause a collision, and that means war. A strange circumstance has occurred at Venice. The 22nd March was the anniversary of the driving of the Austrians out of Venice. By some extraordi nary legerdemain, tricolor flags instead of Austrian were fluttering in the theatre, and they were hoisted in the Place St. Mark, and on the Imperial Arse nal, and they even say on the admirals' ships. This confirms what I have heard, that the population on the other side of the Po and Ticino are cinch agitated. But the most significant symptom of all is the strutting^ about of the priests. They are in all the secrets of Austria ; in short, they are Austrians, and supporters of despotism, and they are not only in the centre of this small constitutional kingdom, but they insinuate themselves into the secrets of all families, so they are a most dangerous class to liberty and progress. The Jesuits are now at the head of all education in the other States of Italy. In 1865, the President of the Chamber of Deputies, M. Cadorno, showed to the Chamber that there are in Piedmont 23,000 ecclesiastics, exclusive of theme in seminaries, novices, and connected with the service of the church; in all, about 45,000, the present strength of the Sardinian army. But say 23,000—that is, there is a clergyman in Piedmont for every 214 inhabitants, while in concordat Aus tria there is only a priest to every 610, and in Bel gium to every 600. But Sardinia consists of Savoy, Piedmont, and the Island of Sardinia. In Savoy, one for 420 ; in Piedmont, one for 227 ; and in the Island of Sardinia there is a clergyman for every 127 inha bitants. I have often mentioned how they encumber the streets of every town. The revenue of the church is about 17 millions of francs ; while in Belgium, with a population nearly the same as Piedmont, the church revenue is about four millions. Piedmont possesses 7 archbishops, 34 bishops, 17 abbeys and priories, and 1,417 canonries. Forty-one prelates here have among them per annum about a million of francs, which is nearly equal in amount to the stipends of all France, which has a population eight times greater than Piedmont. Some of the bishops here have incomes of 100,000 francs, double the allowance of the primate of the church in France, and more than all the prelates of Belgium receive. The revenues of the cathedrals and chapters in this country are more than 14 mil lions of francs—about double those of all France, and ten time' more than all Belgium. They have here 71 monastic orders, 604 religions houses, about 9,000 novices, who for their idleness re ceive nearly 21 million francs. There are 4,431 parishes—total income about 6 millions. Some parish priests have 12,000 f. per annum—more than a French bishop—but many have not more than 500 f. per annum. - With this dreadful dead weight upon the resources of this country, the only cause of its present prosperity is constitutional government and the liberty of the press.

AND EILITISR TSUNODA! X.) MARSEILLES, TUESDAY. The Valetta, with the India and China mails, arrived here at seven o'clock this morning, and left for London at 10 sin. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (PION 01:11 OWN PARIS, MONDAY EVISNINO. The expected sitting of the Neufchatel Con ference did not take place to-day, but no doubt is entertained that it will be held in a day or two— to•morrow is confidently spoken of in some quar ters. A grand Helvetic banquet, of which the French papers have taken no notice, was given on Saturday last to the Swiss residents in Paris. Dr. Hermann, the Swiss envoy, presided, and Dr. Kern sat on his right hand. The latter made a speech, in which he expressed an unhesitating belief in a happy termination of the negotiations, and dwelt much upon the assurances of sympathy which he has received from the Emperor Napoleon. This evening's Petrie, however, refers to the affair in terms which go to confirm the rumour that Prussia is raising fresh difficulties : . . . In the — approaching sitting (the sth) Dr. Kern will, it is amid, mike known the instructions which he has received from hie government In reply to the Count de Ilatafeld's prnpositiona. Will this answer be completely satiofoctory We should find it very difficult to pronounce an opinion on the point. Several foreign journals say that the two prin ciplel difficulties arc nthed by Slk itmiland—the one relative to the PrertelhitrY recognition of the King of Prumiiis rights; the other on the subject of the pecuniary indemnity to be given to him for his domanial property. According to these journals the amount of the indemnity dennuided is Luger than woe at first purposed, the King claiming all aneamaince 1849. Wo know not how far these easertloes may be well ' founded, but we persist in thinking that the difflcultice, whatever they may be, will be removed by mutual conees ramp, and th,nko to the good Okra of the mediating powers. It cannot, however, bo denied that the settlement of an affair presenting to many delicate points required great for bearance on both tides. The knot must be untied and not eat. It may, therefore, well be that the arrangement may require a certain lapse of time, and that the labours of the Conference may nut be brought to an end so soon am public opinion memo to expect. Should further delay take place, the fact need 00CANi011 no unmaineas, for we are confident that the anal bane will be honourable and satisfactory to both portion. I hear it said that Count de Par, the Austrian Minister, who was lately recalled from Turin, is coming to Paris, in the hope of setting on foot nego- tiations. The existence of an Austrian eirotilar note relating to the diplomatic rupture, which has been repeatedly denied, seems to be beyond doubt, and it is alleged that the tone of it is much stronger than that of the verbal communication made by Count do Paar to Count de Cavour. Among the persons arrested in Paris last week, as members of a secret society, were MM. Morin and Ancaigne, writers in the Rerue de Paris. M. Morin was formerly on the editorial staff of the Arenie. A warrant was leaned against M. Lefort, the student who wrote the Maxis de keine, and was some time since sentenced to six months' imprison ment for the part he took in the Niaard riots at the university. M. Lefort, however, had received a hint of what was coining, and when his lodgings were searched the bird was flown. A very strong measure is in contemplation to keep the hot blood of the Polytechnic scholars within due bounds. The organisation of the school will, it is said, be remodelled and assimilated in most respects to that of St. C"1. Each student will be required on entering to sign an engagement to serve as a common soldier when required, and thus, should he at any time be found tronbleeome, the authorities can always pack him off to a regiment. At the Bourse to-day the speculators were chiefly occupied with the settlement in the Rente. Money was scarce, and from 40c. to 50e. was charged for continuations. The Three per Cents. fell 15e. both for cash and account, closing at 70fr. 30c. and intr. 50c. Mobilicr fell sfr. The railways, as has frequently been the case since the Moniteur made ' known the worst about the new tax, were in greater favour than the Rente. The Lyons and Mediter ranean lines were in great demand, and rose respec tively 12fr. 50e. and 22fr. 50e. Orleans rose 7fr. 50c.; Northern, 7fr. 50e.; Eastern, 126. 50e. ; Southern, 7fr. 60c. Western was depressed in con sequence of the result of the general meeting on Sa turday, and fell 20fr. Orand Central fell 26. 50e. The state of the Bank of France is rumoured to be eery favourable. It is said that the bullion now in hand amounts to nearly 241 millions, being an aug mentation of 19 millions since the returns published en the second Friday of the month. Moreover, the purchases of the precious metals by the bank have considerably diminished. It is thought that if better financial news were to come from London, the Bank of France would at once reduce its discount. BELGIUM AND ENGLAND. The commercial protectionists of Belgium have adopted a comical way of expressing their detesta tion of England and free trade, in a prooession,which passed through the streets of Tourney, at the Mid_ Lent festival, last week. The English nation was personified by a huge big-bellied figure, a sort of Gargantua the Great, with vast open jaws, devour irg all sorts of food in moot unconscionable quan tiies, whilst a lumber of other figures, representing the other nations of the world, stood by, starving. Tie car of Perfide Albion was drawn through the town, with much vulgar and vociferous derision, con veying Lord Manyrfort, as the representative of our country was nick-named, who was made, every quarter of an hour, to stop and swallow a heap of victuals, bread, meat, poultry and rabbits, butter and cheese, and other commodities, of which an Engliohman, like the native of every other country, &ewes to consume as much as hr wants. After exhibiting this spectacle in front of the houses of several leading advocates of free trade, the mob proceeded to the river Enema, and, with cries of "A Craw ks Arsplaisr they precipitated their awkward plaything into the water. The eat ables, however, which Lord Mangefort had left, were put by till next day, when they ware distri buted amongst the workpeople of a flax mill, the owners of which establishment are said he have the expenses of the exhibition, The Belga adds that the 7 r r . ang a meg esiallaadmil " Orinerre our Anoints. sad, Issedtm ea the workmen of three other faeterise, parnisi the streets, at eight o'clock in the wig Sat musk of the marrowbones and elsamr, lwit a g ainst the English.

OFFICIAL DECLARATION OF THE POLL. Mir morning an AMMONIAC crowd, certainly not lees the 10,000 persona, emembled at the hustings to hear the °fixes declaration of the poll. Tha three candidates were all premium, and the euceelaftd oae■ were most cordially moire& Shortly after eleven Mr. Onelote, the Morning officer, MY nouneed the result of the pull to be aa Skllown Roupell William§ 7648 Wilkinson It w uonacquemtly declared that Mr. Roupell and Mr. Williams were duly elected to repreeent the borough In per. lament. Mr. Rourrm., in coining forward to address the electors, Ina greeted with tremendous manifestations of enthusiasm, lie said he mane forward to tender to them his earnest tad heartfelt thanks for the manner in which the electors bad supported him on that great occasion, and be received the compliment as paid not so much to himself to to the great principle which ho represented. (Chem) Not only was kin majority the largest which had ever been given to any man in that borough, but the minder polled for him ezceoded that which had ever been polled en a like eocasion— (loud cheers) —throwing into the shade the elections for the cities; of London, Blancheeter; and every other town throughout the country. It was a glorious triumph of liberty and truth over the modern eyetem of time-saving end hypocrisy. (Cheery and a voice, " A pill for Wilkinso%.") He Wilg net puffed up or unduly elated at finding himself is such a position, for he was aware that treruendoui responeibility devolved upon him, and a religions feels ing had come over his mind which he trusted would nee. I leave it. (Heat, hear.) But the next parliament wool( be an historical parliament. Matters would be brought before it of the greatest, importance to themselves and I. futurity in regard both to our foreign relations and to our dos manic politica, and they might depend upon it that he I would give his utmost attention to them, and devote himself entirely to the interests of the electors and of the country, Ho must now allude to a subject which was aot quite so agreeable. That election was up to a certain period conducted in a manner which reflected ere* upon every one concerned in it. There wee a total atones of that vulgarity which in former times &mimed nearly aQ election proceedings, and it was hie strong desire that nothing of that kind might occur upon this occeeks. On the previous day, however, about two or three o'clock, whim Mr. Wilkinson's' party taw that they were in a minority of 2,000 or 3,000, the agents of that gentlemen posted up a notice to the effect that all the votes which were given for him (Mr. /toupell) were illegal, u he had been guilty of gross bribery and me' ruptien—(" hear, bear,' and uproar)—and they bad also the impudence to my that he was not qualified, aa regards( property, to represent the borough. (Laughter.) Ifs. although ho felt that insult personally, he also felt that it was an insult to every free elector of that borough. (Hear, hear.) In fact, it won such an insult u he would not have offered to the poorest amongst them. (Charm) Ho would not have offered to the pond of them a bribe. because he woe quite sure that if he ha( it would bare been thrown back in his face with disgust. (Chan.) He was happy to say that the expense of his elsw ton wee much under the ar cragr, and he considered that It reflected greet credit upon the borough that it bad not pat him to an enormous expense. But any remarlus on the subject of expense came with very bad grace from the candidate who had promulgated this calumny. (Hoar, hear.) He would ask whether it were true that on a former occasion the gee. Henan to whom he referred, although he was only Won the borough three days, did during that time ■pnd se much as he (Mr. 'teapot') spent in ten days. (Cheers, sal cries of "No, no.") Why, bemuse he wonted to be thought the poor man's friend, he (Mr. Wilkinson) had bread brought in vans and moll a quarter; loaf for • penny. (Here • gentleman es the platform, who wax stated to be one of Mr. Wilkinson's agents, exclaimed, "It's • lie.") The hen. candidate bed just given him the lie direct ; but he could afford to take it from him ; he would make due allowance for the bitter feelings of • disappointed candidate. The ides' of bribery and corruption in a free borough like that mast have been engendered in the dark MAO of utter despair. (A gentleman on the hustings here observed to Mr. Roupell that it was not Mr. him= who gave bins the lie.) Ile again Ward them for the position in which they had placed bins He looked forward with pleasure to the opportoskiel which he would have of meeting them every year, wire he would be most happy to give them an account of ble stewardship, and he hoped that then, as now, he would ban no bad votes to defend. He tendered to them his hearty thanks, and he called upon the Almighty to mist him to be true to them and to represent their interests faithfully. (Cheers.) Mr. WILLIAMP, who was received with considerable cheering, said bo was proud to address the electors as hi constituents for the third time. (Cheers.) He owed the position which he then occupied, to the cm ertions of independent electors, and not to auk efforts of paid or hired canvassers. In all Farts of the borough, friends of his came forward to support, not ble mime personally, but the great muse of economy and redone in the institutions of the country. He Memelf was only humble though energetic in.trument in carrying out important national ineseures Though be was proud of the honour of representing that borough, be was still more proud of being mat to the House of Commons free and independent. No disgraceful condition hod been imposed upon hire ea their member ; ho was not to be tied to the car of • minister and be dragged through corruption, just se that minister might desire. In• deed, he would not be placed in such • position. They might rest seemed that ho would act as he had hitherto done for their good and for the good of the country, and that no other consideration should influence him in any act or vote of his as their represents. tive. il6 hoped he should have opportunities of supporting Lord Calreerston's goverretest but his lordship would only obtain his support by bringing forward masons which would be beneficial to the country. lard Palmerston had been prime minister for nearly two years, end during that time he had brought forward scarcely any smarms which was worthy of record. When he (Mr. Williams) met the electors last year at the termination of the session, he had only a single measure of any value to refer to; he hoped that wbeli he met them et the end of the neat mike he would be able to point to many good manures. Lord Pel-. merston had promised a great deal ; they would now ender vent to get him to perform. His honourable colleague (Mr. Ronpell) bad just alluded to certain proceedings in QM election. It was his (Mr. Williams's) most anions &ire* conduct the election in relation to the other candidate' lei perfect freedom from any ill-feeling whatever. He had newt said a word and had never done • single thing against bit late colleague, who was on that occasion his great °most On the other hand that gentleman's party bad done or they could to pick holes in his public conduct, but OM • could find nothing to bring forward against him but rule ribaldry, which he could perfectly well afford to lE4O di r GA du in (C 1 MI w CM tha Or ~r /111 sir bee on oho wR ge 6 oert
