This is ace of the repair entries °fa London season—as regular as the Derby, the Ascot Cup-day, Anna's, or Creepers.; and we an certainly net amour those who an inclined to attach any special meaning to a enfectly natural and cutoniery incident. Limited monarchy, how ever strictly interpreted, is not supposed to be la pereseated by a Monarch whose dais,. and gongs are limited to the tether of his own elemsin, and it would be • mass:feu inspertiamice, as well as cruelty, to grudge our excel lent cousin, King I.xuraEu, whose palaces are small, sad whom subjects are few, an eressiosal charge of air and son or. Besides, Lackey, we cannot help admitting, is a little dull , and Brunk polities ate not the liveliest is the world.

It is a pave symptom of something or ether, this morbidly indiscreet cariosity abut what is celled the Curt policy," so mi nket of late; as if ear boasted reeponsible Genramest had subsided into the pitiable aseditien of a berets few scent agencies anamesable to Parlianwatary and national contreL So that when • win and undentsedieg Priam who was an English nobleman before be was a lungs King, coulee ever °see of twice a year to the adopted country of hie early hie, a totems bona and manner rise apt se fiPly vigilant and was onerven whisper audible semis,,, and shake their heads protestingly. TES dkpasition :omen King Lep ✓ous as the grand flywheel to the dynastic machine of Continental Europe cannot be said to date from the memorable oceulas when we were assured en the highest authority that "Contitatiosal . 1 cement we on its trial ;" bet that oracular utterance is certainly respossible for having quick ened a *luny which was almost extinct. Of coarse it I. idle to affect to doubt that the King oldie Barr aura pays some attention to what is passing beyond the frontiers of hie interesting and isdastrieue litW kingdom, and the present crisis in the Beath of Europe is calculated to excite not only his interest bat his emotion*, std to recall vividly to his mind the eircanntancia under which he mended a throw which he has filled with so much reedit and advantage to the monarchical principle in general sod to the Belgian people in particular, We @Add not ncommcud his Msrerre a better coterie of reading eluting his present nay is Londe• than liaararcrs Parhaaferetary Davies for the years 18 10-18;13. We are persuaded that the perusal of the debate on the Belgian Caseation and the Con ference of London will strengthen his perceptions of the true bearings of the hake' (ale-mien, and enable him to take • clear and generous view of the rights and wrongs which are row in discussion oa the Mack. When he is mired whether Austria cam lose a province, or the Treaty of Vienna a elan. or two, without distarbing the equilibrium of Europe, and sabenting the fouadations of public law, ha will be ready to reply that had Austria not lost a province, and had the Treaty of Vienna re mained ietact, Belgium was no kingdom sad LEOPOLD so King. It will, we imagine, be infinitely amusing to him, after twenty-eight tranquil and pros perous years, to read the doleful speeches in the British Parliament, in which the Treaty-rights of Holland, that ancient ally of England, wen not un justly or unreasonably inveked by Tory members, who insisted that the integrity of the King don of the Net befitted. had been purposely established as • battier to France, and expensed their apprehensions that Prince LEOPOLD would hereafter look up to France as his natural ally and protector, since it was France that had helped him to his throne and Belgium to her independence. It will be pleasant to him to Sete the foresight of the Whigs, who began by fearing that Prince LEOPOLD could trot sufficiently separate himself from England, but afterwards argued that, by applying to France in the first instance, fee 30,000 men, ha bad consulted his own safety, sod set himself free from the objeo tion of his too great leaning towards England. These dente., and the events to which they relate, compose the best of sermons on the late FOREIGN tiatlaTAßl . % " pedantic observance of treaties," and no man in Europe is better calculated to improve the text and to enlarge ou the discourse than oar good friend tl.e King of the BELGIANS, whose re collections writ saltier to inspire him with some con sideration fur Italy in her struggle foe deliverance from Audi ia, and even suggest excuses for her ap- peal to French helmets. We need not the wisdom of any M Esron or of any Uhr -st,, to enlighten nos to the value of Anglia in preening the balance of Power scondisg to MarreEsteit. We du not and any oracle to remind as that it was MrtriEt sten who permitted Russia to ercro,ch is the Eaat of Europe, while he was busy forging chains for the population. is the South ; and that when the Otto. man Empire was declared iu danger and louses and England in tame, Austria was insincere and doubt fed in negniatiese, selfish mad vacillating daring the war, oth.tiruate and embarrassing in Cupola ; that she presented no barrier spiost Russia in 1849, when she called in Russian troops to her aid, no dame to 1 arkey when she hen back from joining the Allis But 1830.1832 is already •distant epoch. Thou, and men, and kings are clanged vises ties. Belgium, of all states In the world, has attracted • near and dear Whence with Austria ; and an amiable lady, who bears a name familiarly fond and sad to English ears, has exchanged the cheers and smiles of a loving population for the sullen silence and alerted to of a people that owes no loyalty to oppressor.. We can hardly belitve that the impres sions of the Princess enantorrn can have convinced King Lb FOLD that Austria has a better right to Lombardy than Holland had to Belgium. Pelham however, the King of the BELGIANS may be more interested just now in our recent change of administration than in foreign politics, and may be solicitous to know the reasons for the change, since Tories and Liberals alike proclaim neutrality. He will find the reasons admirably stated in the debate on the Address in November 1830, by HENIIIi B1101:611 In a monarchy, I " say, the doctrine of measures not men is irrational, " and men, as well av measures, mast be looked to. " The men may make a treaty which will make war " inevitable at some distant day, unless the honour " of the country b.: sacrificed ; and, as long as the men can set secretly, we must look to them and " their character as well as the measures they avow." Again " The people of England are enamoured " of their own liberty, and they are the friends of " the liberty of others." Wards so explicit and so frank as these dispense us from regarding with jealousy the visit of airy king—be his relations, his correspondents, his predilections what they may— with jealousy or disfavour : still lees the " minion" of the venerable Prince Earranazi, who has come again after an ablaze* of twenty-one years, not a poorer bat a sadder man, after closing the eyes of liturreax lea, to tell his surviving friends in London how it happens that Austria is bankrupt, Italy emancipated, end Hungary once more ripe for insur rection.

MARCH OF PRUSSIAN TROOPS TO THE RHINE• (BY ELECTRIC AND INTERNATIONAL TELEORAPH.) (IZOK OVA OWN CONHISPONDENT.) BERLIN, THURSDAY. Prussia hu demanded perm:a/lion to march 31,000 troops through H►nover to the Rhine between the let and the sth of July. The Yon: of to-day contains the following: "BERLIN, Jtss 21. _ _ a At a military , conference held yesterday morning it was resolved that the Guards should remain at Berlin and et Potsdam. The four regi ments of the Landwehr of the Guards, and two regiments of cavalry, will be cantoned in the province of Brandenburg. The 4th, 7th, end Bth corps of the army will take up posi tion between the lower and central Rhine; the 3rd and tith upon the Upper Rhineand the Maine ; the sth corps (Posen) will proceed to its destination by the route of Silisia, Saxony, and Bavaria. The depar ture of troops will take place about the Ist of July.° The following appears in the Indipendance Beige of yesterday evening "If accounts which reach us this morning are correct—and more than once we have been able to verify the accuracy of intelligence transmitted to us from the same source—the following are the bases of the Prussian propositions presented at Vienna and which are aboat to be presented at Paris, if indeed that has not been done already : "A congress shall settle the Italian question on the widest moral bases conceded by Austria, with the revision of the treaties concluded by that power with the other states of the Italian Peninsula. "The territorial limits established by the treaties of 1816 shall be considered as the unalterable bases of the arrangement. "The annexations made to Sardinia with the consent of France, shall not be sanctioned. "If these propositions are conveyed to Vienna and Paris we believe we are able to state with cer tainty that Austria will accept them—probably has I already accepted them—and that France will re ject them. Excepting the previous disarmament (now out of question) the ►bove are the propositions I made by Lord Cowley—propositions that were reasonable before the war, but which after the battles of Montebello, Paleatro, Magenta, and Marignan, the conquest of .liombardy, the revolutions of Tuscany, Parma, and Modena, the agitation in the legation., and the disturbances which begin to manifest themselves even at Venice, will infallibly be refused by France. If, in spite of this refusal, Prussia insists on exercising an Mau sees over the settlement of the Italian questions in such a manner that the European equilibrium shall not be deranged, it is natural to conclude, from the anterior declarations of the cabinet of the Tuileries, that it will not refuse to recognise the rights of Pens staexerted on conditions of absolute impartiality; that it will accede even to the meeting of a congress charged with preserving the interests of Europe in the future territorial arrangements of the Italian Peninsula, but only after the expulsion of the Aus trians from Italy—the end assigned for the present campaign in the proclamation of Napoleon 111. at the outbreak of the war. As for the annexations of territory made by Sardinia, France will be able to reply that she only considers them as events of the war, necessary to the centralisation of military ope rations against Austria, but essentially temporary, and which, to become definitive, will require to be sanctioned at once by the plainly-expressed wishes of the populations concerned, and the consent of Europe." The Currespoltdant de Hambourg having stated that the basis of the Prussian mediation is the abo lition of the private treaties of Austria with the small Italian Sta'es, and the 'venation of reforms in Italy, and that Austria and Prussia are now agreed upon these points (which formed the object of General Willisen's recent mission to Vienna), the Pattie exclaims :—" How long has the Correspon dant been asleep? Does it know that we have driven the Austrians out of Piedmont which they had invaded; that Austria has already lost Lom bardy; that the allied armies are approaching the Mincio, and that the complete and absolute libera tion of Italy from Austrian domination is the only reform' that can now be talktd of ?' The official Preoasische Altana of yesterday, in a leading article, says, amongst other things: " The Franco-Sardinian army is moving neer the frontiers of Germany. The Prussian government has repeatedly declared that it regards the security of Germany as entrusted to its care. The Italian conflict is assuming ever increasing dimensions. England and Russia are arming on the greatest scale. The Prussian government would be faithless to its duty, and to the sense of the nation, if it should refuse to act commensurately with that spirit by _ - which Prussia has Income great. Prussia is free from every engagement, she obeys only those obligations which spring from the innermost nature of her State interests. It will be soon seen whether Prussia's initia tive will be supported by the necessary impress of the °ennui States. Prussia's policy stands firm, and whoever lays obstacles in its way may consider that be is rendering services to the enemies of the Fatherland." eararAz OP THE KING OP ENE BELGIANS.

The Austrian army has hastily abandoned its positions at Lonato, Castiglione, and Montechiari, at which it had seemed to be ready to accept battle, and has fallen back beyond the Mincio. According to an official despatch from Vienna, the Emperor Francis Joseph, as we stated yesterday, left Verona in the evening to transfer his heed.quarters to Villafrance, situated between Mantua and Verona. " The tele graph," says the Nord of to-day, "will not be long before it brings us the news of a decisive event. The contest will have colossal and terrible proportions. There will not be less than 300,000 combatants ; the beat troops of three armies with two emperors and a king at their head. It will be one of those memorable struggles which compose a page of history." The Nord says that a Sardinian fleet, composed of four frigates, will take part in the maritime opera tions against Austria. These operation swill be of three kinds in the Adriatic—blockade, attack, and disembarkation. The Sardinian fleet ue desirous of sharing in the operations of attack. BERNE, WIDNIUDAY.

The following telegram was received at Mr. Renter's Office this morning : "TURIN, WEDNESDAY. " OFFICIAL BULLETIN PUBLISHED TO-DAT. " Advices have been rcoeived from Arose° to the 21st. The Swiss regiments which have left Rome attacked Perugia on the 20th inst. Great resistance was made, notwithstanding that the defenders were few. After three hours' fighting outside the town the Swiss entered, and the combat continued for two hours in the streets. The Swiss trampled 'down and killed even women and inoffensive per sons. The next day the outrages, arrests, and firing on the people recommenced. "The town is in a state of siege." VENICE. VENICE, iI:NZ 20.

A telegram from London states that it has been "decided" that Tuscany shall not be annexed to Piedmont. All questions of territorial settlement being reserved far discussion when peace shall be made, the absurdity of ON statement, which as sumes a partial decision of a question wholly re served for future consideration, has probably given rise to the following paragraph in this evening's Pays : Somajourasla appear to us to attach undue importance to the different shady+ of opinion in Tuscany touching the future destiny of that nuntry. That tbeie rh Alld be in Florence sympatb:es in favour of annexation to the king- dom cf Sardinia, atd alas a feeling for a asps:ale and lade pendent existent?, shows only that there is a question to be solved by the Italians theme:lves when the proper time shall I come. France has nothing to do with it. France never had any intention to buy herself about any new distribution of I the Italian orates. We have realatad Austrian aggression with the sole view of freeing Italy from foreign presaute, and from the consequences of that pressure, which are no lees hurtful to Europe than to Italy herself. We are in Italy to put en end, by the establishment of order founded upon national and independent bases, to those political agitations and cammotions which, under the name cf the Italian ques tion, have caused uneasiness end anxiety en Europe for the lest half century. We have no other thought. It is quite natural that the halloo, should already give expression to their affections and tendencies; these ere their own affairs; the work which we have undertaken is paramount, and quite unconnected with three isolated facts. Doubts arc thrown upon the accuracy of the speech attributed to the King of Sardinia in answer to a deputation from Bologna. You will remember that when I gave this speech from the Fairly, I noticed a prefatory location of that journal which argued a doubt. It now appears that the King has actually appointed two provisional administrators of Bologna, the Marquis d'Azeglio and the Marquis de Born, and that he does not intend to abandon the Roman provinces to anarchy if the Pope shows him self unable to protect them. News has reached Paris, from Rome, that hi. do Kiaseleff, the Russian Envoy to the Holy See, left on June 15 for Naples, on. a mission to the young King. He is the bearer of an autograph letter from the Emperor Alexander If. to Francis 11. It is believed that M. de Kisseleff will take this oppor tunity of forwarding negotiations between the two courts which were set on foot some time since. The Prerse says it has received a letter from Naples, too late fur publication to-day, which "unfortunately reduces to very sm%ll proportions the amnesty, which, on the faith of the telegram, lad been assumed to be general."

The Prince of Wales and his suite, accompanied by Dom Pedro V. and Mr. Howard, have visited the lines of Torres-Vedras and the Convent of &della. The Roca are not at all in a good state of preserva tion, Decay, the lapse of years, and the pessantry's need of stone, having done much to fill up the fosse and level the redoubts; still there remain many forts in tolerably good order, and the redoubts and the traverses for the guns, the latter of which are made of solid blocks of marble. Batalha is an old acquaintance of the English reader, and the author of " Vathek" has eulogised in glowing terms its superb architecture. To-night, according to a telegraphic message, the Prince, Dorn Pedro V., and the other distingmbhed travellers have returned to Mafra. This immense edifice—half palace, half monastery —was built by Dom John V., who, anxious to have issue to succeed him on the throne, vowed to erect, on the birth of a son, a monastery on the place where could be found the poorest priory in his do minions. On the birth of Prince Joseph, Mafra was selected, for on this spot stood a hut, in which dwelt twelve religions men of the poorest order in Por tugal. Ludovici, a German of Italian origin, was the architect. The Prince of Wales has accompanied Dom Fer nando several times to the snug little theatre of the Gymnasio, where the Spanish company are giving their representations, and where Medina dances La Grenadine in first-rate style. The Prince has been well spoken of everywhere, and seems to have won the good opinions of all with whom he has come in contact. It was intended to give a ball to the Prince on the part of the British merchants, but the arrangements were, it is stated, left till too late in the day, and his Royal Highness is engaged up to his departure, which I believe is fixed for daybreak on Tuesday next. It is said that the new postal convention will come into operation on the let July—all the arrangements having been completed.

Yesterday, at the Liverpool police court, Manuel Antonio Matte, and Angel Carrell° Gallo (two member. of the Chili= pezilante nib and Galli= Matta and Benjamin Vicars Klima& (editors of a newspaper r piblisLed at San- Sago) appealed to pronecute Captain Leslie, of the ship Louisa Braginta, for literally detaining them on board his vessel. Dr. Wheeler. of Manchester, and Mr. Aepinall, appeared fur the complainants, and Mr. Deighten for the captain. After Mr. Asphalt had recapitulate! the statement be had made on the previous Saturday, Senor Mtlienna stated that he was the editor of the ef•untbko, published in Santiago. On the 11th of December last a public meeting was called at that piece, to consider measures tot the rec.:mementos of the government of Chill. He and his three Mends were present at that meeting, and during the proceedings they were surrounded by a bend of soldiers, take& into custody, and detained in prison for three months In Santiago. His friends Matta and Gallo were members of the Lgislature, the one being a revues:halve from Valpa raiso, the other from Cadmus. Atter being in prison for the time specified they were put into a erase carriage and es coned to Valparaiso by a company of 25 soldiers headed by an officer. The distance between there two places, about ninety miles, was accomplished in thirty hours, They arrived at Valparaiso about mid-clay, but fir fear of a popular outbreak they were not allowed to enter till when they were taken to the whirr and shipped en board the Louise Braginta. A company of soldiers received them on the gang-way, and a few of their friends were allowed to com municate with them. They were not informed whither they were going, and about three hours after they had been placed on board the ship sailed under the convoy of • war-steamer, which acomapaeled her about len or fifteen miles. the court plainest. made no protest until the steamer, with the military on board, had patted company with the ship. Then, how ever, they told Captain Leslie that he had been gu i lty of 'a breach of international law, for which they could call him severely to account. Tho captain replied that he was under contract with the Ciallian government, aid that he must fulfil his contract. They toil him that the 3,000 dollars which he wee to receive fur their paeeage, thcenth four times the amount paid by ordinary p managers, woull be cheerfully guaranteed to him, with 1,500 extra for himself, if he would land them at Aries. The captain refused, and their only alternative was Cu remain by the weetel. When two days out, end opposite the Isle of Juan Fernandez, the ereptaia asked If they would like to be landed there, but this they declined, the island being uninhabited. Senor 31•Knina then told the captain that they should not fur ther remonstrate with him, but that on their ar rival in &gland they would bring him t t justice, and if ne cessary lay the case blare the Foreign-alive. Wm. Motion, thief mate of the Louisa Brigitte, stated that the impute laformed bim about twenty days before the arrival of the complainants that he was expecting same political Wiener., and that preperetion must be made for them on board. Re, WDLClO,.after the arrival of th e complainants was supplied a petal and ammunition, and so also were some of the crew, their instructions being to use them in case of need.

Mr. M..u. field declined to settle the case thus, uit In volved several points of international law, whisk ought to be submitted to a higher tribunal. They might have the age dealt with summarily, by the captain placing himself under street for twenty•tour hours, and then by a writ of babes.. corpus the CAM might be tnuseferred to the Court of Queen's Bench.

I)oquer, ex-chancellor of the French embassy at the court of Austria, arrived at Vienna on the 17th. The object of his visit, it is supposed, is to negotiate for en exchange of prisoners. A letter tram Brescia of the 18th, in the Pays, says :—" The soldiers are most Ingenious in their inventions for keeping off the rays of the eon. Some fabricate immense shades, by means of a handkerchief stretched on bent *pieces of wood fixed in their knapsacks; othen adjust trenches of trees for the same purpose, end this is the moot general prac tice. Nothing is more curious than to behold tLeee ambu lating etwobberies—they remind one of the moving wood spoken of by Macbeth."

"Captain," raid the Emperor, taking out his watch, " I give you an hour and a quarter." "Sire, we will endeavour to do it in that time." " No, do not moleavour, but do it." In a few minutia several boats were joined one to the other. . Tbe Emperor jumped from his horse, and, notwithstanding the remonstration of hie eta, began to cr.os. S of the fastenings of the boats were as yet so slight that the current tt rained to carry the teats away. More rarnotistniuma were of rid, but the Emperor did not so much as listen to them.
