A supplement to the London Gazette, publisheci on Saturday night, contains an order by the Privy Council in reference to the arrival iu Southampton Water of the ship Tasmanian, having yellow fever on board ; that all passengers known or suspected to be infected, whu have not as yet been removed to the Menelaus, shall be removed to the Parana or the -Eolus, unless ordered to remain on board the Menelaus ; and that they shall be detained on board the Menelaus, the Parana, or the dEolus until further orders from the Privy Council. Of the four cases of yellow fever on board the Tasmanian which were not ex pected to survive, one died daring the night of Friday. The other three were reported better on Saturday. tour South ampton correspondent, writing on Saturday night, says:— "According to advice' received by the Tasmanian the yellow fever appears to be generally decreasing in the West India Islands. The Shannon, due here on the `..*.th inst., left this port since the arrival of the Atrato. The commander, therefore. knew that yellow fever prevailed at i St. Thomas, and would no doubt take proper precautions to mitigate its severity if it should break out on board his I ship. Southampton papers this morning describe the scenes at the Royal Mail Company's offices here last night as : heart-rending. The applications to see the list of the dead. or to hear it mid, were incessant. One poor woman asked ~ if her husband was among the victims. Nineteen out of twenty names were read to her. and she was raising I her eyes as in thankfulness, when the twentieth • • was pronounced. It was that of her husband.

PARIS, SUNDAY EVINUIG. The curious ceremony of the re-interment of a portion of Cardinal Richelien's head in the mauso leum where the body lies in the church of the Sor bonne, took place yesterday with much pomp and cir cumstance. It is known that during the revolu tion of 1793 Cardinal Richelieu's tomb was removed from the Sorbonne, the vault which contained his remains was desecrated, and tho back part of his skull was cut off and disappeared. Lately the pri vate individual who found himself in possession of the relic determined to restore it. The go vernment being sMiafied with the evidence of the genuineness of the cranium, ac cepted the offer, and favoured the idea of a solemn demonstration. Accordingly, yesterday the church of the Sorbonne, built, as a Latin inscription yet legible records, by Richelieu in 1642, was gorgeously hung with velvet and gold. Places were reserved for the Senate, the professors of the Faculty of Theology, the members of the Institute, and many other learned bodies. M. thiruy,the Minister of Public Instruction, presided, and the religious service was performed by the Archbishop of Paris. The r atan, contained in a rich casket, was restored to its place in the splendid mausoleum by Girardon, erected in 1694, by order of the heirs of Cardinal Richelieu. This monument, which originally occupied the middle of the church, was placed in a separate chapel when brought back by Louis XVIII. in 1815. M. Duruy and the Arch bishop of Paris exchanged speeches on the occasion, which were necessarily of a commonplace character. The observation of the archbishop that because the head was now brought back to the tomb, revo lutionists should know that it was useless to obli terate the graves of great men, has hardly the general application which he would infer. In this case the remains are restored ; but in many others they are not and never will be. The project for the augmentation of the army is becoming more and .more unpopular every hour. 'Many provincial journals speak against it with extraordinary boldness. The numerous journals especially devoted to financial subjects denounce it as a calamity. The imperial democratic organs in Paris, the Siw•le and Opinion Nationtik, which are generally ready to advocate a war for some grand " principle" or another, hesitated at first, but now the Sicle pronounces against the measure, and M. Gueroult's journal, which the nays taunts every day for its silence, must necessarily, unless it would lose subscribers, go with the stream. The fourth and last series of guests left Corn pigne yesterday evening. The Emperor and Em preas and the Imperial Prince are now at the chAteau alone en fanatic. They will return to the Tuileries to-morrow—two days sooner than was expected a little while ago. It may be supposed that preparations for the Empress's journey to Rome occasion her earlier return to Paris; but the bad weather—frightfully wet—would be a sufficient explanation. It is still very doubtful whether the pilgrimage will take place. At all events, the news that the Prince Imperial would accompany her Majesty is unfounded. HEALTH OF THE BISHOP OF LONDON.—It seems doubtful (says the (Ascrawr) whether the Bishop of London will be able to officiate personally at the metropolitan Christmas ordination, which is appointed to take place on Sunday next, December 23, at the Chapel Royal, White hall. In the event of hie being unable to be present the duty will ho taken by the Right Rev. Dr. Anderson, Chencellor of St. l'aul's Cathedral, formerly Bishop of Rupert 's Land. A large number of candidates will attend at London-house for examination during the week. ELEcTION MOVEMENTS. —The conservatives of Colchester are preparing for the vacancy expected to be shortly created in the re p rese ntation of that borough by the retirement of Mr. T. J. Miller, one of the sitting mem bers. There arc two accepted conservative candidates, viz., Mr. E. K. Kerslake. Q.C., and Colonel Learmoath, as it is proposed to make an effort to oust the present liberal sitting member, Mr. J. G. Rebow, MP., on the first opportunity. The liberal candidate who will be brought forward on Mr. Miller's retirement is Dr. Brewer, chairman of Mr. J. Stuart Mill's committee at the last Westminster election. The liberal/ of East Norfolk have resolved on bringing forward Mr. Edmond Wodehouse and Viscount Bury to contest that constituency at the disso lution against the sittin g ^ members, Mr. E. Howes, M.P. , M and Mr. C. S. Read, .P. Mr. Vivian, the prospective liberal candidate for St. Ives, has been addressing the elec tors of that borough. There is some talk of bringing for ward a conservative candidate for Newcastle-on-Tyne at the next election ; the gentleman named is Mr. Blelvin, large ship-owner. Mr. Vance is canvassing the electors of Lisburn, in anticipation of Mr. Miller's appointment as s judge in bankruptcy.

Carttar, coroner for West Kent, held an inquest at 'Woolwich, on Saturday afternoon, on the hail of Mr. Eugene Murray. The de ceased disappeared fro:u his home in Tredegszaemare, Victoria-park, on the 10 th of November ult. Printed bills were in the meantime issued, offering a reward of fs.W. for his discovery. On the 12th inst. his body, fully dressed, with the exception of his hat, was seen floating ' down the river near Woolwich Dockyard, and was secur ed lby some boatmen. The evidence of the witnesses who ap peared before the coroner went to show that the deceased was seen at a late hour on the evening of the 10th of No vember, tipsy and without his hat, in the lower part of the town. known as the " dust-bole," which is hemmed in by the high boundary wall of the Royal Arsenal. Its single line of habitations consists of taverns and many houses of ill-repute, w hose occupants are under the strict surveillance of the police. From the " dust-hole" nothing further could be traced of the deceased. The body presented no marks of discolouration nor bruise* which would be produced by ill-usage. The coroner said the deceased had been seen in the com pany of three men who were:not known, nor could they be traced, and there was no doubt he had been robbed of his hat and money, and the only verdict they could pronounce in accordance with the evidence must be that of " Fotuid drowned," leaving it open for furt her inquiry if neoemsary, which, after a short consultatio n, was agreed to. Ur. Murray was the owner of some hou se property in Wool wich and in London. A policy of insurance for the sum of 6,0001., payable at his death, in the Albert Life Insurance office, by which it appeared that be bad paid 91. lls. 6d. on the 9th of November, the day preceding hie death, was found in one of his pockets. and a lso a warrant to suspend premium until Jan. 12, 1667.

OPENING OF THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT• SPEECH OF KING VICTOR 100LANUEL HEW YORK, Dec. 4. President Johnson, in his message to Congress, says : " It is a matter of regret that no considerable advance has been made towards an adjustment of the differences between the United States and Great Britain, arising out of the depredations upon our national commerce and other trespasses committed during our civil war by British subjects, hi violation of international law and treaty obligations. The delay, however, may be believed to have resulted in no small degree from the domestic situation of Great Britain. Whatever might be the wishes of the two governments, it is manifest that good-will and friendship between the two countries cannot be established until a reciprocity in the practice of good faith and neu trality shall he restored between the respective nations." Relative to the Feniaa invasion of Canada, he says that citizens were warned against taking part in or aiding such unlawful proceedings, and the proper officers were directed to take all necessary measures for the enforce ment of the laws. The expedition failed, but it has not been without its painful consequences. Some of our citizens, who it was alleged were engaged in the expedition, were captured, and have been brought to trial for &capital offence in the province of Canada. Believing that the severity of civil punishment for miagnided persons who have engaged in revolutionary attempts which have disas trously failed is unsound and unwise , such representa tions have been made to the British government In behalf of the convicted persons as being sustained by an enlight ened and humane judgment will, it is hoped, induce in their cases an exercise of clemency and a judicious amnesty to all who were engaged in the movement. Counsel has been, employed by the government to defend the citizens of the United States on trial for capital offences in Canada, and a discontinuance of the prosecutions in stituted in the courts of the United States against th hn ose ee wh ee o gez tot d pa u r , t e L in .pe th a e iu si on Pedi as not only o bas nly b p e o e li n tical did. I recinteit nature, but also as in a great measure foreign from the United States in its causes, character, and objects. The tesurg tten'P e t nt w" part un y in Ireland , aerlt4tb a e n ,ma l, by ae sirrikingsymP:tßhyritiwishthproan vince on this continent, designed to aid in obtaining re dream for political grievances, which it was assumed the people of Ireland had suffered at the hands of the British government hiring a period of several centuries. The per sons engaged in it were chiefly native:, of that country, some of whom had, while others had not, become citizens of the United States. Complaints of misgovernment in Ireland continually engage the attention of the British nation, and PO great an agitation is now pre vailing in Ireland that the liritish government have deemed it necessary to ppeend the writ of Habeas Corpus in that country. sw These circumstances must necessarily modify the opinion which we, might otherwise have entertained in regard to an expedition expressly prohibited by our neutrality laws. So long na those laws remain upon our statute book they should be faithfully executed." With regard to Mexico, lie says, "That relented assurances have been made that the eva cuation of Mexico by the French expeditionary forces will take place next spriug, and that the French government would then assume the attitude of non-intervention in Mexico, as is held by the government of the United States. It is believed that with the evacuation of Mexico no subject for serious differences be tween France and the United States would remain." He adds:—" Being deeply intereateel in the cause of liberty and humanity, it seemed an obvious duty on our part to exercise whatever influence we possessed for the restoration and permanent establishment in that country of a domestic and republican form of government. All settlements of American claims for indemnity against France for acts committed by that power in the exercise of a belligerent power against Mexico have been deferred iota a mutual adjustment eh ill be :timed upon by the two countries." Speeking of his reconstruction policy the President says : ' Upon this ,piestion, so vitally affecting the restora tion of the Union and the pennenency of our present form of government, my convictions heretofore expressed have undergone no change, but, on the contrary, their correct ness has been am armed by reflection and time. If the ad missien of loyal members to seats in the respective houses of Congress was wise and expedient a year ago it is no less wise and expedient now. I know of no immure more imperatively demanded by every con sideration of national interest, sound policy, and equal justice, than the arlinisrion of loyal members from the now unrepresented Stoics. This would consummete the work of restoratien, and exert a most salutary influence on the re-estahlihm , nt of peace , lg mony, and f ra te rn al feeling. It world tend greatly to renew the contalence of the American people in the vigour and stability of their institutions." The President, in conclusion, says : " Our gee-et -tilling is now undergoing it' most treing ordeal, and my earnest prayer is that tLe peril may he enecererfully and finally passed without ire. pairing its original strength and aynneetry. The interests of the nation are beet to be promoted by the revival of fraternal a relations, the completeobliteration of our past differenoes, aud the reinauguration ob of ell the pursuits of peace." The New York Iferabl, alluding editorially to the Pre sident's message, says that upon the great brew of Southern reconstruction it reads like a chapter from the world before the deluge. The New York rt.ncs, writing on the same subject, 'says:—" His (the President's) argu ments have been used before. His recommendation is chiefly noticeable as an evidence that be le,s learned nothing from the elections :end forgotten nothing with his struggle with Congress." The Tribune Keys:—" The first impression conveyed by the ereseage is that his excellency is chaeteneil. There is nothing in it thnt any loyal nem could read with comfort or hope. He doe, not mean to aid us in the work of reconstruction." The New l'rk Weeei and the Journal of CUM name support the President. The latter paper says :—" Ile exhibits that Jacksonien fineness which was declared to be one of hie characteris tics when nominated, and this ineaeaeg is in no sense inferior to anything he bas heretofore issued." NEW YOIIK, Dee. 4. The report of the Secretary of the Treasury . annaunces that the receipts for the three-quarters ending June, is 66, e x oeeded theestimates of the last report by ending dols. The expenditures fell short of the estimate , . by •e 00,000,000 dots. From ',5 August, l's , to October, Ishii, the debt had been decreased by 206,000 ,000 dole ., hut it was not ex pected or desirable that the same rate of reduction should continue. The revenue, after reducing the taxes and the tariff, would be sufficient to reduce the prin cipal at the rate of 4,000,e00 dole. to 5,000,000 dole. per mouth. The report adds, that with proper re:ninny the generation which created can One pay the debt. The Secretary of the Treasury rerommentle Congress to adopt the following measures, end thereby enable the govern ment to resume specie payments in two years:—To compel the national hanks to redeem their notes hi Atlantic cities or in a single city, to curtail the currency to the amount required by a healthful and legitimate trader a careful revision of the tariff, the removal of taxation from raw material, the issuing of Five-Twenty per rent. Bonds, payable in England and Germany, in sufficient amount to absorb the Six per Cent. Bonds now held in Europe. and meet the demand there for permanent invest ment ; lastly, the rehabilitation of the Southern States. The report estimates the re surplus for the theepiartere ending next June at 79,000,000 dollars, and the surplus for the year ending June, ltine, at 85,000,090 dollars. At a republican congressional caucus held on Saturday ' last, a strongly hostile feeling was manifested toward Pre sident Johnson, and a resolution was passed, recommend in,g the Senate to reject appointments made by the Presi dent on political grounds.

FLORENCE. Die. M. The Italian parliament was opened to-day by the King in person. His Majesty delivered the follow ing speech from the throne : Signori Senatori, Signori Deputati,—Our country is henceforth free from all foreign domination. It is with profound joy that I declare this to the representatives of twenty-five million Italians. The nation had faith in me, and I in it. This great event, by crowning our common efforts, gives a fresh impulse to the work of civilisation, and renders more stable the political equilibrium of Europe. By her promptitude in military organization, and by the rapid union of her people, Italy has acquired the credit which was necessary to enable her to attain in dependence by herself, and with the aid of eflicscious alliances. Italy has found encouragement and support in this laborious work in the sympathy of civilised govern- ments and peoples, and has been further sustained and strengthened by the courageous perseverance of the Verse' tiara provinces in the common enterprise of national emanci pation. The treaty of peace with the empire of Austria, which will be laid before you, will be followed by negocia tions which will facilitate exchanges of prisoners between the two States. The French government, faithful to the obligations which it contracted by the September eon- , vention, has withdrawn its troops from Rome. On its side the Italian government, observant of its engagements, has respected, and will respect, the Pontifical territory. Our good understanding with the French Emperor, to whom we are bound by friendship and gratitude, the moderation of the Romans, the wisdom of the Pontiff, and the religious sentiment and right feeling of the Italian people, will aid us to distinguish and conciliate the catholic interests and national aspirations which are interwoven and contending with each other at Rome. Attached to the religion of our ancestors, which is also that of the great majority of Italians, I nevertheless respect the principle of liberty whichbreathes through our institutions, and which, broadly and sincerely applied, will remove the causes of the old difference, between church and state. This die' position on our part, by re-assuring catholic consciences, will accomplish, I hope, the wishes which I form that the sovereign Pontiff may remain independent at Rome. Italy is secure, now that besides the velour of her sons, which through all the changes of fortune has never belied itself either by land or sea, nor in the ranks of the army or the volunteers, she possesses as the ramparts of her independence the very bulwarks which served to ermines her. Italy can, therefore, and now ought to turn her efforts to increasing her prosperity. As Italians have shown admirable concord in the affirma tion of their independence, so now let all devote them selves with intelligence, ardour, and indomitable con stancy to the development of the economic resources of the Peninsula. Several bills will be laid before you with this object. In the midst of the labours of peace, fa voured by a secure future, we shall not ueglect, following the lessons of experience, to perfect our military organi ' ration, in order that, with the least possible expense, Italy may not be destitute of the forces necessary to urantain her in the place which belongs to her among great nations. The measure. recently taken relative to the administra- Lion of the kingdom, and those which will be proposed to 1 1 you, above all respecting the collection of the taxes, and the accountability of the state, will contribute to ame liorate the management of public ensile. My government has provided in advance for the expee liture of the year about to open, and for extraordinary payments of every kind. They will ask of you the continuation in 1867 of the financial measures voted for 1666. The legis lative bodies will also maturely discuss the bills which will be laid before them to ameliorate the asseasment of the taxes and to equalise them among the different provinces of the kingdom. If, as lAM fully confident, the people of Italy will not fail in that activity which crusted the wealth and power of our ancestors, it will not be long before the public exchequer will reach its definitive equilibriam.l Signori Senatori, Signori Deputati,—ltaly is now re stored to herself. Her rerpmudbility is equal to the power she has acquired and the full liberty she enjoys in the use of her strength. The great things which we have done in a short space increase our obligation not to fail in our tusk, which is to know how to g co o n v di et ti a on ou o rs f e th lve e vigourkisnwig,tfioLtteuna the requiredli our institutions. Liberty in our political institutions, err.lit y by demands t he soda! by a uthority in the government, activity in the citizens, and the he ig ht of Lew upon all and over all, will carry Italy to the height of her destiny, and fulfil what thew orld expects from her.

As an AtherieWAwas with us, try father thought 1 hail better k-nd my pistol to him, which I wax sorry to do. During the last day. a- we were descending a very wers . .y hill, a poor man tole us that about a dozen robbers were e :thing tor us. I was alk,vc, and immediately told those inside. Very soon :dt,:rwards a man rcs'e reit and fired a shit in the air, the diligence was stopped, and one of the lit ere went to hold O. two leading mules ; then one of the robbers, with more courage than the rest, came mitering up the atc;:p 11111, and fi rst d ema nded the arms (the others following his example) ; a short conference ensued, which ended in pistols being given up. We all got out. I was very anxious to hide one little thing, and so I dropped it into the mud , and stamped more m ud over it ; afterwards I picked it Lim up. A titan came and :hiked for my money, which I gave ; he then felt outside my pockets, but did not take any thing more. We were then informed that they were a portion of I;pldrs band, sent by him to take the govern ment despatches, letters, &c., and that eighty more were in a small village below ( abou t twenty or twenty-fire were robbing us). A bugle WAR then sounded, and several spare horses were brought to take away the letter bags. Then they wanted to shoot all the foreigners for being French. My father explained that he was not French, and as I was his son I could not bc. There was a Frenchman they were going to shoot ; but a Mexican lady embraced huu, and said that he was a Mexican, and her only brother, and if they shot him the y, o be ruined, so they let hiin off. Some were half tipsy, and in some place had shut two Mexicans, as they belonged to the opposite party. They went into a large corral afterwards, when we were clanging mules in the small village where the rest were, and took away about 2.50 ; they bad also cut down the telegraph-I lost altogether a few dollars, and out of ray trunk a gold chain ;T. and M.
