GERMANY , the moment Italy received Venetia her aspirations we— find themselves satisfied, and that there was no longer amuse fresh bloodshed should be provoked upon our part lastly, that the cession made to Prance would constitute a moral guarantee for the preservation of Venetia to Italy, a consideration which should have weight in the minds of the King's government. I replied that for the moment I could only confirm what his Majesty had written to the Emperor, and I specially pointed out to M. Drouyn de Buys that Italy, being bound by an alliance, could not either conclude a peace or an armistice separately. Further, without pre lud•ce to the resolutions that might be arrived at in this respect by the King and his government, I told his excel lency I would refer to the King's government upon the subject of the communication that bad been made to me. But I pointed out to the Emperor's minister that the King's government would not admit that Austria at this opportunity, and as condition of her cession, should have made reserves with regard to the Roman question—a question we considered se being settled by the convention. of September 15, 1884, concluded between Italy and France. I added that the term Venetia ought, in the opi nion of the King's government, to coulprebend the district of Trertino, which is situated upon the Italian slope of she Alps, and inhabited by an entirely Italian population. These considerations, I repeat, were put forward by me without prejudice to the resolutions the King and his go vernment shall take in pretence of the unforeseen proposal of the Emperor Napoleon. SIGNOR VISCONTI-VILEOSTA TO CHEVALIER DI MESA. Florence, July 8. I have rammed up in my despatch of the sth MM. the in which the King's government would he aMS tr. the French proposals. le ; we aces i t have not rejected the armistice in princip have only made known the conditions that would render it possitile. Austria, by ceding Venetia to France, has wished to indenulify Italy for the results of the Prussian alliance, and by thus putting an end to the war in Venetia to dis pose of all her forms to recompense herself for this cession at the expense of Peoria. She seems there ore under ex isting circumstances to have for her object, not peace, but the continuation of the war by destroying at one blow the alliance between Prussia aud Italy. , The Emperor Napoleon, in proposing an armistice to the King's government, wishes that it should be pureed in Germany at the same time. Thus he demonstrates hie- • perfect impartiality, and we are glad to see in this fact el proof that the Imperial government, by exercising ate powerful influence in favour of the re-establishment of ,•. peace, justly appreciates the exigencies and the duties of our situation. These exigencies and duties cannot be felt less strongly by us, and Italy would fail in her obligations if she laid l. down her arms without the consent of her ally, • consent , ;m7 l which depends upon the conditions of peace which Austria' ; will be disposed to accept in Germany. 4. . f giblit milt Military. 4, TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (murex's rezzosaus.) THE MINOR TAXPEDITION IN CONK& PARIS, Dec. 213. The Afoniteur du Soir, in its bulletin, says that later intelligence from Cores, via Shanghai, on the Gth November, announces that the negotiations between the government of Corea and the French Admiral Rose had taken a most favourable turn. The Patric of this evening says :—" We have reason to believe that the Turkish ambassador, Djemil commu nicated yesterday to the Marquis de Mollifier the contents of a note recently addressed to Athens by the O t t om an government." intelligence received here from Vera Cruz, dated the 28th inst., states that the c ommander of the Austrian frigate Dandolo , which had returned from Orizaba, brought news to the effect that the voyage of the Emperor Maximilian to Europe had been indefinitely postponed. The France of this evening, alluding to the resolution taken by the Emperor Maximilian to defend 143 throne with the support of the clerical party, says that in no case will the French govern ment reconsider the orders given for completing the evacuation of Mexico by the let March. The same journal says :—" The cabinet of Madrid have resolved to come to the aid of the Spanish railway companies. The contribution of 10 per cent. on the number of fares which the com panies have hitherto had t o pay has been abolished. A bill fixing the amount of the aid to be granted to them will be presented to the Cortes next session." PRUSSIA AND FRANCE. BERLIN, DEC. 28. The King of Prussia has conferred the order of the Black Eagle upon M. de Lavalette, the French Minister of the Interior, and upon M. Benedetti, French ambassador at the Prussia noourt. BELGIUM AND THE NETHERLANDS. THE HAGUE, Dec. 28 A debate took place in the Upper Chamber to day upon the question of the Scheldt. Several mambos supported tit* is taken by the government in this matter. The Ministry stated i that they had fully maintained the rights of the Netherlands, which could not accede to the unjust requirements of Belgium. Neither was the latter State entitled to alone demand arbitration in the , ques tion. The subsequent inve sti g ations, even lof Belgian engineers, proved that the Dutch government had accurately stated the facts. The ' proposed embankme nt would, the Ministry stated, \be advantageous even for the Western Scheldt from Bath to Antwerp. ITALY. FLORENCE, DEC. 2S.

(me oua certain:Po:rimer.) COWES, FRIDAY. The officers of the American yachts, including Mr. I. Gorden Bennett, jun., owner of the Henrietta, were enter tained at a banquet by members of the Royal Yacht Club, last evening. It took place at the club house, and there were ten guests present ; but the proceedings were entirely of • social character. The banquet to be given by the citizens of Cowes to the °finer , of the yachts, takes place at the Gloster Hotel, to-morrow evening, when the mem ber for the Isle of Wight, Sir John Simeon, Bart., will preside. The yacht. were visited during yesterday by large numbers of persons ; and the greatest interest ap pears to be manifested by the people of Cowes, both in the vessels and their crews. The crews have been ashore, and are very smart -looking fellows, One of the yachts is to anchor in Southampton Water, another is going to Cherbourg, and the third is, it is said, to remain at Cowes. The official custoe Unitmhouse papers of the yachts have be en lodged with thc4 States consular authorities, and the captain of the Fleet wing Ina to furnish the !Wilt* of the men who were drowned on the passage, with the particulate of their deaths, to those authuntics, for the information of the United States government . Eight men were, it appears, washed overboard ; two were got ou board again, nod the other siz wore drowned. The crew of the Fleetwing were not the regular hands who sailed in her before the race, but strangers, who were nut used to the size and rig of the yacht. She bad scarcely any bulwarks, and she was unfortunately broached to when a heavy sea struck her, and it was a wonder that all on deck were not drowned. If the yachts had had ordinary bulwarks they could never have created the Atlantic, on account oft he vast quantities of water that was continually coming o deck. The three racing yachts resemble very much in appearance the famous yacht Amerim, which came here a few years ago, but they are much larger. The Afor larm is almost the only English yacht which size and speed would be a tit match for the Henrietta. It is understood that the owners of the American yachts will not care to compete with English yachts for less tl.aa au ocean race such as round the M e stern Islands and hack. The S'euthampton and Isle of Wight Mail Steam Packet Company have issued the following notice :—" By the kindness of the owners, the celebrated schooners, Henrietta, Fleetwing, and Vesta, may be inspected during the present week.

The greatest enthusiasm prevailed.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—The first fatal accident, it is believed' which has arisen from the use of steam cultivat ing apparatus took place on Wednesday last Ed upon the farm of Mr. E. Gre ene, M.P., near Bury. St. mund's. Messrs. Howard's tackle was being worked, anti a man n amed Cornelius Hammond was en g aged in guiding the steel rope on to the drum of the windlass. Nobody saw how thc accident occurred, and the poor fellow himself was unable to give any account of it, but it is believed that he was in the act of stepping over the rope (which there was no necessity for him to do, and was highly imprudent) when his foot slipped, and be fell upon the rope, which instantly carried htm to the windlwa drum and wound him upo nnt , it, the rope being bound round hint several times be fore the engine could be stopped. The strain upon the rope at the time was enormous, as it was drawing the cul tivator with the force of a 12-bone engine, and some of the poor fellow's limbs were literally cut to the bone by butthe pressure. He was extricated as quickly as pas t died died soon after. A TINY STEAM Ysorr.—We notice the arrival yesterday of the steam yacht Fanits, from New York, bound, according to rumour for the West Indies. T he Fends, is one of the smallest steam crafts we have ever seen, being but little larger than the largest sired yawl boat. Her voyage from New York to this port is a marvel, and exhibits no little amount of recklessness on the past of those who made the passage on board. We presume th at the inland route must certainly have been traversed by way of the canals and sound'. —Wilmittoton Journal. f t .4., 1 i 1 i 1 i . ... 4i/1111!
