MOH WATIZ AT LONDON NAIDON fur Da*—lleratag. 41. en.......Altariona. 4 1. re. Toessasnr—akeidas. U. 41115.....Aftinmr" Mr M. LONDON, FRIDAY, JUNE 6. IT is much to be feared that, unless the people of England take the settlement of the Italian question into their own hands, it may be solved immediately, and that in an Austrian mass. No doubt Lord P•Liteturrox and Lord Puna= are disposed to persevere in • an hooest and liberal policy, bat their generous inclinations may be counteracted by the half hearted indifference of some of their collesgues, who fancy that England has no interest in Italy, or by the Austrian predilections and courtly tendencies of Lord CLARENDON. It 's with reluctance and sorrow that we feel ourselves compelled to speak Woof the noble Secretary for the Foreign Department, bet he has left us no alternative. He has been blowing hot and cold in the affairs of Italy. His manly support of CORM CAEOUR is the Con fences of the Bth of April has been followed up by the Treaty of the 16th of April, which be kept a secret from the Sardinian Minister. This secrecy was of itself sufficient to shake the faith of Piedmont in England ; and there can be no doubt that the treaty, which was *occluded to gratify Austria, might, under an anti-Liberal English Administration, be turned to the prejudice of Italian liberty. This meow is un worthy of England, which ought to play a liberal and entirely independent pert in Italy. The letters et oar Genoese correspondent have shady drawn attention to lb* moue in which the French end Austrian Ministers at Rome are hantiag im couples. We do not, indeed, be lieve that then with regard to Italian affairs, any cordial mad sincere understanding between the Wheel of Vienna and the Court of the Tuileries. Reek is attempting to make use of the other. Bet they have objects in common which they may bring to a successful issue before their divergent ulterior aims bring about a rupture between them. For France sad Austria have made strong representations against whet they are pleased to call the excesses of the pees ia Tuscany. It is needless to state that the press doss sot enjoy much liberty ender the Oman Duns, bat even the little it does enjoy is dreeded by Austria. The Empire, of the Flax= is noways displeased to And en auxiliary is • erased, against the Italian, such as he has already emerseteed against the Belgian, peen ; and therefore he associates himself with Austria in remoestrenees, which have not beau joined in by kis true Allies, England and Piedmont. The Minis ters of the GRAND Dais have, it is true, advised him sot to meddle with the existing laws ; bat the Tw ee& Prime Meister is weak, and to ears his plate he will do just what the GRAND Dina pleases—that is, whatever Austria insists upon. Again, it is at present the policy of Louis Nsivuox to keep in with the Porn, whiles the Austrian Court is notoriously led by the Jessits; and the commutate of the so spenders of the two Govensneuts in the nesse et the perti-pretre is that religious persecution is m iming a sew and more inveterate hem about Piss. Protestant proselytism Is no logger the only thing sought to be checked ; a new legal cameo has been hued oat—Blasphemy. The truth is, that the senate, people are enraged at the priests, and their bank expressioss of their sentiments are interpreted late this crime. The peesantry are the principal victim of this extended persecution. 8o far we have been toschisg upon the French Government's Lpses from sound policy and cempli city with Austria, for the purpose of 'stearin, its own ands; but there is also great danger of its being induced by the subtle and uneerupuloue diplomacy of Austria to go further than it contemplates. France is no match for Austria in the game they are sow playing. It may or may not be true that Count RATNEVAL is BO longer the MDR man he MA since his illness of last winter ; Austria has nfficient ad vantage without that. The object of Austria is cer tain ; it has one distinct, definite aim is view ; while France is trying to reconcile bnposnibilities— to be liberal at one time sad illiberal at another. The relentless, straightforward, march of Austria's a souses of power which France, hesitating between two opinions, is destitute of. Already strong irymp tem ere visible that France's ea the eve of being aver-reached. The Austria' and French Govern ments have both addressed notes to the Poe; MOO. mending reforms. The details of reformation have boa prepared by the French Ambeseador, and they are recommended in the Austrian note ; but as that note concludes by declaring that advise cooly is offered, and that Rome, as an independent State, can do as it pleases, nothing can come of snob a represestatioo. Austria played exactly the same gamete 1830; her Ansbassedor, LUTZOW, signed the well-known me morial presented in that year by the Great Powers to Gaza:int XIV. ; bat after signing he refused to join the other diplomatic agents in persooally sup porting the contents of the memorial ; and It is notorious that he encouraged the POPE in his re tinal to yield to their remonstration. Franco is king mode the dupe of the miming eascarrenes of Austria sow, as the Great Powers were in 1830. The Preach diplomatic agents are strongly of ',Woo that no reform can be seoomplisbed in the Pontifical States by halt manure; that eves secs. kriestioe of the Papa Government is no remedy; that a priestly sovereignty is incompatible with good government; that in truth liberty and priest. craft cannot eo•exiet. And LOON NAPOLEON knows that this is the truth, though he his anxiety to erinciliate the French priest hood, and to identify their national vanity with his own seditious projects, he deems it necomary to speak the Pore fair. But the Pore is overpowered by ANTONELLI sad his party; and the Cardinal dose not altogether despair of sooling the Austrian Besperceos eigosiesserst for WALE PERLA. M. DI RATNEVAL hes intimated to Altto. PELLt that the Emmen will shortly withdraw the French troops from Ross, merely retaining such a atilitery force at Civita Veichia es may make to doter from insurrectiosary movements iti the capital. To this intimation ANTONILLI hes replied that be ems time ago informed RATNEVAL that he felt him self in a condition to preserve order la Rome with out the aid of the Preach troops; that he Is 'metal fee their past *mists, sad dose net ob. jest to their withdrawal; sad that the Austrians on lauds' their forme I. the Legations. This lest stetemeet Is simply ea wrath; and the object of the Cerdinal-Pretaire is to get the Fronk est of Renee, and the Austrians Into it, and then to go 011 in the old routine of clerica► nalsgoverstemat. All these things an !movies; to Italy bat that sr* =knows is the lleglish Foreign-efts. Ad they will meths@ to be lunette there es less as Ltd CLWatDoe repose the MOW faith is whet Lord NORMANDY reports to him. It le sad to have to speak thus of one who cease enjoyed se high a reputation far liberal sentimentei bat the truth is that Lard NORMANDY. who, when a young man at Flamm, was himself a conepirater for liberty, is now the defender of every Italian abuse. He is sending home elaborate despatches in ex mutation of the conduct of the Duchess of Palms. The policy of the Dooms may be judged by the anteoedests of Count Zama, who inspires it. That Minister, when the Grand Decal Government was restored, after the events of 1648, had the brutality to have the graves of those Liberals who had died during the GRAND Donz's absence broken open, and their bodies removed frem conse crated, and contumeliously out into aeconsearated, ground. Such are the people who now, ander the protection of Austrian bayonetr, rale in Panne; and Lord NORMANDY defends, palliates, or excuses all their teethes. The honour and interest of England alike demand his immediate ratal. The mischief that is being done in Italy by French coquetting with Austria, and English apathy, is in conceivable. Sardinia is losing heart, and despair is stealing over the Legations. Soros of the move ment' encouraged by this state of affairs in the latter provinces would be laughable, were it not for the terrible light they throw on the unsettled state of the public mind. Take an exempla. Among the Bolognese nobles there lea certain Marquis DI of the home of that name—rich, powerful, and with the reputation of liberal leanings. There is a double connexion between this nobleman and the Pamperer of the PRINCE. The Marquis him self married a daughter of JOACHIM MURAT ; and his eon mania a Honutrousix-Hacnixoszt, a near connexion of Prince Honsitzomiatt-Szoicarisctxx, who married the Orand Deane lITIPNANIA of BADEN, the adopted child of the great NAPOLEON. The Marquis DI REPOLI paid a visit to Paris last year, and was well received at the Tuileries. Os the strength of these shadowy mad unsubstantial claims, Ise and his dependents have actually set intrigue on foot to have the Legations erected into a petty king dom, of which be is to be the secular monarch, ender the sees of the French Empire. This visionary move. sant would be utterly unworthy of notice, did it not prove the .'crafty of prompt action by 'hawing what vain and mischievous dreams are beginning to spring from the unsettled state of Italy. Nothing can arrest the downward progress of affairs in the Italian peninsula—their rapid proclivity to anarchy—but the prompt adoption of a firm and intelligible policy regarding them by England. The Sardinian Government has spoken and acted nobly ; it has set the example of asserting the independence of all Italian States, and forming alliances with a view to strengthen itself for this purpose. Liberals like Mem have not hesitated to throw them selves into the male of Sardinia. The materials for a moderate, Miami, practical Liberal party exist in abundance at this moment in Italy. And only in the ausadancy of such a party is there for the Peninsula a doer of escape from Niamey and ter mime. Let Beglud bat speak the word, and no foreign power will dare to interfere to prevent the complete explained= of the Italian Liberal party, Bat there must be no hesitatioa, es trimming, no tergivereation ea the part of the English Goverment. Bagland mast insist upon Italy's being freed from foreign soldiers. It has been the bake with Tories, and Tory Nadia* to sondem Lord Mnrro's missies, het it invelriel a noble and a generous policy which England waste do well to adopt in the present user pney. It is I. the power of the English people to force apes their Government the adoption of such a policy gip Court.

(nom ova ovx 0011BSPOWD1011.) PARIS, TZORIDAT Evixuro. _ The Emperor arrived in Paris at seven o'clock this morning, and proceeded at ones to the Palace of Bt. Cloud. Within an ►oar after his arrival hie Majesty ordered that an application should imme• diately be made to the Corps Legislatif fora further grant of 10,000,000 fr., in aid of the victims of tcs inundations. A Council of Minister, at which the Emperor presided, assembled at one o'clock. The Minister of Public Works is about to leave Paris for the valley of the Loire, to superintend the engineering works in progress, with the view of mitigating so far as possible the disestrons roue qualms of the inanda•,ioos. He will at the same time consider what means can be taken to protect the low °pantries from inundations on Mare wagons when the river may be swollen. . - Letters from Orleans of this day's data report numerous diameters in the town. Thirty-seven houses have fallen, and many others an in a dangerous Kate. Several lives have been lost. The news from Tours and dmboise is still more appalling. The city of Tones is almost all under water. Boats ply regularly in the High-street. The inmates of the Hotel de l'Uaivirn wen let down into boats from the upper windows, by sheets tied together. The dim of the Jeanie, del' bodes et Lowe is inundated, and the paper he. not appeared. The railway is oons. pistol) , destroyed. The devastation is equally great at Ambroise. The only oommunieation now open between Mar. seilles and Avignon is by the rotuadabout way of Nimes. Travellers lam the railway at Names and go to Avignon in earflaps. It le with apainful sense of present calamity that I add to the above iatelligenos that the hopes of settled tine weather which were entertained yester day and the day before, have proved delusive. It has been raining hard in Paris for the last eighteen hours, and the clouds are still black and threatening. There has been a perfect panic at the Bourse. Up to half-past one o'clock all descriptions of securities were literally unsaleable, except at enormous mod- Sess. A feeble rally then occurred, but it wee of short duration. end business closed with a most sombre aspect. The Rents fell 70e. for cash, and lfr. 350. for amount. closing at 73fr. and 73fr. 80c. Credit Mobilier Mil 93tr. for ash, and 140 fr. (!) kg account. In railways the fall exceeded anything that hes been seen for years. Orleans fell 881 r.; Lyons, 70fr.; Mediterranean, 1301 r. ; sad most of the other lines from 30fr. to 401 r. Austrians fell +Mfr. 60c., and Victor Emmanuel, 20fr. The bad weather was the only oases assigned for the extreme depression. General Sir William Williams, of Kan, with his aides-de-camp, Captain C. C. Teesdale and Captain linty A. Charehill, arrived this morning at the Hotel Menrioe. Prince Oscar appears to have been placed In soave danger at Cherbourg by an accident to his carriage. He had visited, on board the Bich% the breakwater, when, having landed, he got into an open carriage with his aide-de-cainp to proceed to the hotel of the maritime prefect. The coachman, being dazzled by the sun, which was shining full on his face, did not perceive a kerb-stone at the side of the way, and the wheal of the carriage came against it with violence. The 1 1 coachman was thrown from the box and much bruised, and the hones, left thus without control, dashed off at a fearful pace. The prices and his companion getting alarmed, jumped out of the vehi cle. Both fell, but the prince received only a few bruises, whilst the aidc-de-camp had his shoulder dislocated. A. to the carriage, it wee whirled along by the horses at fell speed, and was at last dashed to pieces against some stow work.

TURKEY. (120 X ova OWN COWINSPOWDIWt.) CONSTANTINOPLE, MAT 22. My last letter announced the expected arrival of the Russian Chancelier or Consul-General ; who accordingly reached this from Odessa on the 18th inst., per Lady Eglinton, British transport steamer. This is the principal incident which has occurred here sines the conclusion of peace, representing the renewal of friendly relations between Russia and the Porte, and will, I trust, be hailed with satisfac tion by all parties. One thing at least is quite certain, namely, that M. Pisani is highly popular in this country, esteemed and respected by all classes as a man of strict honour, rare moderation, and integrity. Hs is a native of Constantinople—a non-orthodox, and connected with many old Pere families of Genoese origin, and whereof some members, of the same name, have been for some generations em ployed in the interpreter department of the British embassy. M. Pisani's return to the land of his birth was noiseless, and without display. He landed without a single attendant at Tophans, and proceeded straightway', unnoticed and alone, pour ieriester, apparently, to the house of a widow lady, Madame F—, whose bas band, long since drowsed, had figured conspicuously as the enterprising Dragoman Chief oT the Hessian Mission in former days and very troublesome times. 1 There, the Chancelier and Councillor of State was under the necessity of taking up his quarters ad in terins—for, unfortunately, French and Turkish sen tries were still posted at the gateways of the Russian palsies and consulate, and neither would, in all pro- Debility, have been induced to abate one jot of the consigns, nay, even in favour of the rightful owners. T: see edifices, as you are aware, are undergoing thorough repairs at the expense of the French go vernment, and are to be restored in slaty quo ante, and still better, within a short delay. Another event has occurred since my last which merits honourable mention, and has created a consi derable sensation among all classes of the native po pulations. Oa Saturday last, the spiritual chiefs of the various non-Mumulman communities, with the venerable Prince Vogorides, representing the Greek nation; Michram Dozogloa and Ovanees Dadian, the two Armenian sects, and M. Hatim, the Israelite communion, were sum moned to the Porte, by order of the Sultan, and nominated members of the grand council. It is even stated that the ministers apologised to the great rabbi and to the Israelite deputy for Caving disturbed them on their Sabbath day. So much for intolerance and fanaticism in these parts. Let then our Spooner' and Exeter-hall orators learn wisdom and magna nimity from the Moslem. I have not time to-day to say more, but shall return to this subject in my next communication by Mon day's post. It appears that our consular establishment in the East has at length attracted the serious attention of the British government. This service, in the opinion of all competent persons, cannot be maintained in its present form, and is unquestionably one of the most singular anomalies of our national institutions. As • first step, therefore, a reform is in enure. of • progress at . , 'headquarters—that is to say, the info aim: of the law element into the administration of judos at our consul-geueral's court at Constantinople. Till February last this functionary was sole judge and arbiter in his own territory ; and the absurd rule of compelling all litigants—even if both were British subjects—to pet in " the pleadings" in Italian, as also all documentary evidence in the same language, was i• fall force. In that month, however, Messrs. Horn by and Hardy were associated with the consul-general as assessors or assistant judges, aid a most important innovation besides introduced, that is to say, to em ploy henceforth our own instead of a foreign lan guage in statements of claims, answers to ditto, and other documents. More recently still, Mr. Horeb has drawn up a brief and simple form of procedure for the guidance and practice of the court, based upon the elementary principles of British commercial law; and a further and more comprehen sive cods, similar to that of oar common law courts, is, I understand, in course of preparation. This most salutary and much-needed reform will thus contribute to abolish, as mooh as possible, docu mentary evidence, and substitute for it oral examina tion. It is intended also to encourage English practitioners, and assimilate as far as possible the regulations to those in lorce in our home tribunals. There will not, however, be the double and dis tinct agencies of barrister and attorney, but the practitioner's duties will be blended, much in the same manner as, I believe, those which devolve on the members of the American bar. These important changes in the administration of justice in this country will contribute, I need scarcely observe, to place henceforth on a satisfactory footing the interests of her Majesty's subjects, which have been knocked about between Scylla and Charybdis, without a proper pilot, or even a plank, from time immemorial. In abort, the upshot is, if I am rightly informed, that the consuls, not being educated for the legal profession, will figure but nominally in all judicial contests, and somewhat in the shape of the ^ Ko4a rpicrora " of the Greek theatre. The decision of the case will entirely rest upon the judgment of the lawyer. Lord Palmerston says that common sense is quite sufficient in oar con sular magistracy, but our noble Premier knows that though himself possessing this faculty in an eminent degree, with many other great and noble requisites in a statesman to boot, still he perplexity to consult the legal advisers of the crown, and to abide by their decisions. The pound steelier: has fallen to 118 pea., and it is said the Minister of Finances is determined to reduce it to 110 pre. ss the permanent rats of exchange. Provisions are pouring in from all sides ; the mar ket is beginning to be overstocked, but it is a coneo lation to reflect, after such long privations, that the body politio will soon pluck up and thrive and fatten in the midst of this abundance.

MARENGO. The Monikur contains an account of the step. which have been token by M. Delavo, the proprietor of the estate of Marengo, to 't transform that celebrated field of battle into a living rummer of the victory." The plain of Marengo, observes the editor, hum extent of 10,300 ante (269 sores). It commences at the bridge of Bormida, tot far from Alexandria, bat we moat creel the little bridge of Marengo to find ourselves really on the soil where the battle took place, and where so many of the brave lie buried. We perceive from the road a group of home' overlooked by an old dismantled tower, which beers the rime of Theodorio —that is, Marengo Before the 14th of June, 1800, the plain was bounded at its two extremities by two buildings. h One o fe trnaraerited on the them still exists; itis a ou l ts ar id g e e " wi d th lU b s acon g l dli lel, a g f 'rm ed belongs to the hospital of Alexandria. The other was formerly an /Debugs ; but it now forms pare of a splendid palace. It was in a room of tbu oteborge —marred for travellers of some distiaction—that the Emperor retired on the night of the battle ; and it was on a massive table, which occupies the reuse of the window, that be wrote to the Emperor of Austria to offer him peace. Upon the site of the arberge a palace has bee d, with the sole otject of pteserving the little chamber in which Bonaparte lodged during the few days which followed the victory of Marengo. The stable into which the wounded were crowded pek-mule still occupies the game spot, and still remains is the same oondition. By its aide rises the pa lace, sad before the/undo there is a speedos' esplanade surrounded by a will, breast high, and sur. mensited by ma iron palisade. la the middle of the esplanade there is • statue of the First Consul metaled by Benoit Cacciatcri. The palisade of the cow Whonneter is formed of pikes and Imams, separated at inter vale by columns, in the term of the consular fume with Roman axes. The gate is ornamented wAh lances, crowns. die. ; and the whole is in harmony with the monumental character of the entire building. A triumphal city, painted is fresco on one of the walls, recalls the project of the Emperor to erect on this spot a city, to be called The Town of Victories—a project, however, which his fall, not many years after, left him no time to accomplish. Aecendittg the marble static... of the palace, we reach the first floor, where we perceive two long suites of halls, resplendent with light and brilliant colonn, with walls and ceilings de. corated with friezes and sculptured frames. These halls lead to a vast salon, called the Chamber of the Apotheosis of Napo:coo, the magnificence of which at once ex torts the admiration of the visitor. Around are picture, each commemorating tome victory of the great general. The ascend story is leas sumptuously decorated, but it con tinues the impression produced by the rest of the edifies. The views from the wimows cnimand the four points of the horizon, and comprise some magnificent lindsoapes. lathe smart is shown the well at which Bowen* couched his thirst, and the booth of stone u. on which he re led on the evening of the battle. Not for flows the Fontanone ; and it was at the spot where the stream divides itself into three parts that the strife was the most bloody. Its banks are sow shaded by the fine trees which emhelish the grounds. A little chapel has been erected by the berate of Marano nun the right of the path which separates the stream from the garden. At some paces' distenoe 'media bleat of granite, upon which is placed a bust of Deutz, in marble ; and at a little interval there is a model of the grave of the Emperor at St. Reline, the tombstone being turned so se to front the but of Demi'. The ground floor of the palace is divided into two c:mpart mints. That on the right contains the three chambers which formerly made part of the atiberge. The door of the last is surenouoted by an "N.," surrounded by a garland. It remains to this day what it was in 1800, with its beams and ceilings psiated blue; with its floor of brick, its chimney owner and its wide fire-place ; its yellow walls bordered with plaster friezes. There is still the same win dow with its grate and it. tiles. The writing table is still there. All that has been dons has been to suepetd along the walls the relics of the battle found here and there spat the plain. Opposite the window are placed the eagles which adorned the imperial arose in 1806, when Napo leon sassed to be repeated before hie own eye,, on the plain of Marengo, the evolutions of that famous field. Below are disposed trophies and panoplies formed with the army, which were in the best state of preservation. Ia the midst of these trophies a ginned armoire exposers some precious relics to view. 'hey comprise the tin inkstand, and the chair of green velvet, which formed part of the furniture of the rcom in 1600; • number of bronze medals unienemoratire of the victory; some 20f. pieces struck on the occasion, and afterwards called mann goes ; the Emperor's bat-cue of white velvet, ornamented with leaves and flowers embroidered in silk and gold; and. lastly, a brace of pistols of exquisite workmanship, 'Demoted with ornaments of gold and silver, and bearing the name of Desais. This chamber is cal.ed the Sanctuary ; and the veneration of M. Delovo has been so proleand that he has allowed the palace to be inhabited. FLOATS Or FIREWOOD ON THE SEINE.---Tllll conductors of soae ikate of Erswood on the Seine, geeing three days ago, from the sudden ries of the wator sod the rapidity of the current, t at it would not be sets to remain at the wharf at Coudray at which they had stopped, resolved 'to proceed to Paris; but on approachiog Corns; le-Hoi. they found from the vii Wee of the current that it was almost impossiele to guide the floats. After sirusgling foe same time, the flaws, to their dismay, mineral several others which were moored near the Ile Youlette. The force of the shook was so greet that the floats were broken up, and the wood and timber composing them were carried in a tease to the bridge of Ivry, 'picot toe piers of which they toroth violently. They then peered through the bridge in large masses to toe Ile de Quiquengrogoe, armies cum ber of other floats were moored, and ran into them. The treolere on these flats *coo became so great that the posts to which they were fadened gave way, and the floats got mixed together in inextricable con fusion. A tinge mass, cons's:jog of cot fewer thaa sixteen fl.au of firewood sod tea of father, was consequently formed, end was cirri d with almost irresistible force down the Heine towards Pais. Had it reached the city, the damage it would have done is incalcu lable—for it would not only have swept away all the bathing establishmeom, washing bouts, rood other edifiers on the 'hoer, but would have greatly damaged and wham de strryed the bridges. But the alum bell was tu,g, and all the 'shearers and boa men of the torts were coliectaci, and they pr. areded, under the orders of the inspectors of nevi gotten, and at the risk of their own lives, t t beak up the earaptct mew of wood. Atter immense effort. they nos seeded in doing this, and so saved Faris from fearful danger. Fortunately no loss of life eccorred.—Golignoni.
