Tux explicit declaration of Frisch policy towards Italy, just made with every wok of anthoeity in the columns of the Grutitmtionwel, is the most important event effecting theeiternalafiinof the Peninsula that hea taken place since the signature of the agreement of Villafraoca. To proclaim that Austria shall not, and that France will not, interferewith armed force in Central Italy, is to settle the larger half of the Italian question. And this is what the Cuoutilutiosnel un dertakes to do. At Villafrines the Emperor of the Faxecii consented to the return of the Princes of Central Italy, who had east in their lot with hie enemy, in order to show that he cherished no ani mosity towards thein,aod he has since exerted himself to reconcile them with their people. He will' matinee to do so, bat it is, of room, per that he may not succeed. What then!' Will France attempt to impose its powerful will en the people? " No; Francs is not a " gendarme in the service of Princes against the " populations. She endeavours to aide them in a ' mutual and profitable accord, and will do no violence " either to ace or the other. To act between them " by ati armed intervention would be to walk in the " path of the old Austria. policy, which was do " (rated at Magenta and Solferino ; but it is not " consistent either with the dignity or the honour of " France to do herself what she condemns in other,. " Austria has lost for ever the profitable monopoly " of armed intrusions in the affairs of the Peninsula, " and we will seen claim it for our own advantage. We will not take back to-morrow what we have " given to-day." Thin resolution, which is in perfect accord with the belief expressed to Parliament by Lord JOHN Russam. at the date of Lord Etcno's eager anxiety respecting Italian affairs, clams the door against the fugitive Primes, and chapatis some of the worst fears which the egreement of Villafranca inspired- The policy it announces is so simple and so wise, se remote from the ordinary principles of Owlets governments, that one only fears it may be on that very account exceedingly difficult to carry out. No one can doubt that the positive asearance, freely given and faithfully observed, not to seek territorial aggrandisement, powerfully contributed to strengthen the position of France in the Italian war. The Ctosatitutionnel promises, if we under stand our Paris contemporary, that a similar mag nanimity and disinterestedness will he exhibited in the re-settlement of the disturbed Duchies. The present situation of those states makes this declaration very timely. Their people have just manifested their wishes, not only with • sincerity which is ►bove question, but with a unanimity that is without example. It is not only that in Tuscany, the largest of these states, the vote for annexation to Sardinia has been unanimous, but the whole of Central Italy has united in the same claim to parti cipate in the freedom and nationality enjoyed for ten years by Piedmont, and of which the Lombards have just been made partakers. Ten years ago such unanimity would have appeared like the dream of an enthusiast ; to-day it is the soberest of realities, The people of Central Italy see plainly that if their former princes are restored they can only be re strained from ruling for and by Austria as they did before, by the constant exercise of the influence of Franco in their affairs. But this would neither be for their good nor for that of Europe. They want to free the rest of the world from the raeoessity of always concerning itself with their bushier, and in order that Northern and Central Italyniay be able to take are of itself they desire to fore part of &earwig constitutional kingdom under VICTOR EMMANUEL. The 'Denney of the Emperor of the FILESCH have imputed to him &desire to thwart, for dynastic ends, this natural and honourable solution of a great question, which he has done more than any other man to ►ring before Europe. This last declaration come as an answer to those who have accused him of harbouring intentions inconsistent with declare time which have been made in his name all over Europe that he desires no part of the territory of Italy (or sny prince of his family. It appears to rebuke unworthy suspicion, and renew before Europe the pledge of a magnanimous policy. We say that if this is the meaning of the semi official manifesto, it appears at a SIMMOD. able moment. In a few days the annexatios of Tuscany to Piedmont will come before the Em. peror of the Fees' n, se well as before the other European Powers, for recognition. This vote is the fullest conceivable expression of the principle of nationality, which the Emmen' went to Italy to vindicate that has heretofore Wee seen. Its realisa tion would be hailed throeghout the Peninsula as • proof that the great battles of last spring had not been fought in vain. Not only Italians but free men all over the world will observe with eagerness the coarse which the French EMPEROR may take in this matter, and according as he may act will judge for themselves whether he really desires to se* an Italy with sufficient strength for its own needs, or an Italy in which divisions, either absolute or arbitrary, maintain a state of weakness to tempt the anahrion of powerful neighbours at the expense of the tranquillity of Europe. The Emperor of the Faun n is aware that from this country no opposition to the prudent and neces sary extension of the Kingdom of Sardinia is to be expand. On the contrary, our Government sees in the annexation of the Duchies to Piedmont and Lora lerey a satisfaction due to the salutary aspirations et • people too long disunited, and a means of rein stating then in that internatiocal rank to which their Isiah political qualities entitle them. The EMPIBOU cannot be reproached with rallies in his engagements to Austria respecting the fugitive Princes. Die has done what he engaged to do, and his aerate, who hose gone from city to city is Cen tral Italy, endeavouring to prepare the populations to welcome back their Duke*, will be able to tall him how vividly the people perceive the disastrous ten dency of such advice. Some rulers propose territorial aggrandisement, ant: some ►eteeretie power,, as the object of their reign. The Emperor NAPOLEON has shown that he aspires to Ponsenitog beyond these prises of a vulgar ambition. He is constantly betraying that his satisfaction is H Aumornuits—mtw MODEL.r. li NA Li. rid Oft.

He has now a great opportunity of commanding the respect of mankind, and he will im prove it if he only remains true to the spirit of the last declaration seriously made in his name. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. EXPECTBD 1108TILMB8 IN BOLOGNA, The latest reports from Bologna are of a warlike tendency. It is stated that 8,000 men, under the command of General Halbermatten, have marched towards Cattolica from Pesaro, and that an attack is expected every moment. The Monitore di Bologna of the 28th, without affirming or denying the foot, cells on the people to be calm and confident, as the government is prepared to meet any eventuality. It appears certain that 2,000 Swiss, with several pieces of artillery, have arrived within a short distance of Cattolica, and the government have received dispatches informing them that these are but the advanced guard of the papal troops. These troops are mid to be composed, not merely of Romans, hut of Modena', who are favourable to the pretensions of the duke, Swiss from Naples, who bare been engaged by the Pope, and Austrian soldiers, who have been disembarked at Anoone, and dressed like the papal army. Altogether they amount to 10,000 or 12,000 men. The government have been further informed that the projected at tack will coincide with the period for holding the elections, so u to influence them in a sense favoura ble for the authority of the Pope. On the other hand, the government of the Legations is adopting the most energetic measures. The troops of Mezzacapo are full of warlike ardour. A mes senger is sent off to Garibaldi every other day, and that general is gradually advancing from Fears, so as to be in a position to give effective aid if the necessity for it should arrive. Telegraphic despatches have since announced th►t Mezzacapo has advanced towards Cattolica at the head of his troops, and that the elections have taken place with out the slightest disturbance. GeneralFanti has been appointed Commander-in- Chief of the Army of the Italian League. General Garibaldi, it is positively affirmed, had been offered that high post, bat his modesty prompted him to decline it. Some arrests have taken place in the Legations. Agents of Austria and 3lazeini have been ordered to quit. M. Mario and his wife (Miss White) have been escorted to Leghorn, where they will em bark for England. DENMARK.

It would almost appear that the hopes held out of a slackening of the rein which has hitherto held the prom are about to be in some degree realised. The Consritutioome/ inaugurates the event by giving to the French nation certain letters written by French exiles which have appeared in the columns of English and other newspapers. It seems strange indeed to see in that journal addresses to the public bearing such signateres as Victor Hugo, Louis Blanc, and P. J. Prosdhon—and yet to this favour nave we come. The Press. follows up with the conclu sion of M. Peyrat's remarks upon the speech of M. de Morny; and the Time* itself hardly takes greater latitude in replying to" the reproaches of the President of the Puy-de-D6me against the English orators, ministers, and newspapers." M. Peyrat considers that when M. de Morny talks of the " re ciprocal susceptibility of France and England," and apprehends lest, one fine day, " some incident of no importance should become a source of serious com plication," he exaggerates the danger. The writer believes the governments may have had mis understandings, but never the people; nor can the charge of exciting the national susceptibilities in England against France be fairly brought against English journalists and public men. In proof of which assertion be quotes the following words, addressed by the Emperor to the Legislative Body on the 7th of February last :—" As to the alliance between France and England, I have made persevering efforts to consolidate it, and I have found on the other side of the channel a happy reciprocity of sentiments on the part of the Queen of England, as also on that of statesmen of all opinions." M. de Horny might easily account for the " explosion of susceptibility produced by the newspaper articles and speeches in parliament," if he chose to call to mind " the insulting violence of that part of the French press which nineteen months ago accused the English people of complicity in the attempt of the 14th of January; still more so if he would turn back to the Moniteur, where, in company with his own speech, he will find the addresses of the colo nels, soliciting for their regiments the honour of marching in the van of the army, charged with " de mending an account of that land of impunity in which is situated the den of the monsters sheltered by its laws. The French government did its duty ; it dis avowed these imprudent menaces; bat the impression was produced, and it has not yet been effaced." lie further alludes to the remarks of Granier de Cu. Gagnon in the Pay. and the Cosatituricsussl, that " France could, whenever she chose, throw suddenly an army of 60,000 or 60,000 men upon any given point of an enemy's territory, a warning which England thought was d son addresse," while if that belief was erroneous, no attempt, he says, has yet been made to correct it. M. de Morny's notion that England ought to be sufficiently reassured by the loyal fidelity of the Emperor, and his well-known pacific intention., does not appear to him strictly logical. He recalls another sentence in the Em peror's speech on the occasion already alluded to, "In order to attain this end, so desirable for the world (the Anglo-French alliance), I have placed beneath my feet, on every °cassias, irritating recol lections of the past, the attacks of calumny, and even the national prejudices of my countrymen." This seems to him of a piece with the remark in the Constitutionnel about the Emperor's abstaining from an appeal to the national animosity, whereby France might, if it were wished, be made to rise as one man ; and he thinks it quite natural that England, being told these things upon such autho , rity, should see therein " a cause of serious preoccu pation." He then continues : Besides, these comiderstione, in themeless tolerably weighty, are sot required to account for the anesumats of England. Three months ago Europe was on the see of a general war, the faot by which the abrupt peas of Villa. franca me explained. In such a war would England have had no part to pis, ? And to play that part, had she no preparations to make ? The people, which ban been the soul of the four greatest coalitions that the world has witnessed sham the end of the 18th century, which etrugglei victoriously against Loins XIV., arrested the euterprieee of Gustavus Adolphus against Danmark, and of Catherine against Turkey, sus tained against the French republic and empire a struggle without parallel in history, peopled the United States, Bri tish Amerce, India, Australis, and founded ea army point of the globe colonies, some of which are great and power:ill states; such a people cmnot remain a mere spectator of events which may possibly change the hoe of &u• rope. Above all, it cannot expose itself to witness a retain of the time when Tromp and Ruyter sailed up the Thames. He then alludes to the much talked of change in the system of naval tactics owing to the introduction of steam, and the supposed facility with which a landing might be effected in England. He does not incline to this belief. He thinks, moreover, that "England is so situated u to render extremely difficult, if not impossible, the only danger which can seriously menace her, namely, the junction of all the European fleets. She cuts off the communication between the north and the south of Europe "sou to prevent effectually a junction between the fleets of the Baltic and the ocean, still more of the Mediter ranean." "These idea of maritime coalition are not of our time; besides which, history teaches that they are almost always powerless. In the American war the French and Spanish fleets were unable to effect a junction after the battle of the 12th April, 1782. . . Louis XIV. was convinced that all attempts at • descent upon England would bet cad in the increase of her means of defence; and Napoleon, even while preparing the most formidable attack with which she had been menaced, said the going was easier to accomplish than the returning, in the face of a nation which would arm to a man." He observes that an invasion would be useless and an anachronism, even if it could be carried into effect ;and concludes by ap plauding that part of the speech in which the war of commercial competition is recommended as the only war consistent with public feeling and the general prosperity. I have only time to point to another very remark. able article which appears in the Courrier do Dimassehe. It is by M. d'Haassonville, assumes the form of a letter to the councils-general, and oc cupies about one-half the journal. Nothing half co strong has been printed since the famous article by M. de Montalembert, end there is no doubt that it would have met the Caine fate which overtook that article, had not • great change recently come over the spirit of M. de la Gnerronniere's dream. As it is, I know that functionary and his advisers sat in judgment upon M. d'Haussonville's article ; but the decision arrived at was that a prosecution or even • warning would, in the present state of the public mind, be unadvisable. The tone and obj:ct of the article may be gathered from the following and almost the concluding passage : We would ask the mothers of the counclls-general who may peruse there pages whether it does not appear to them that with a flee prem, which would bare been envlited bt discuss the acts of government, to watch Its tendencies, and to call public attention to their probable consequences, our county would sot have been earlier forewarned of the hotels nonce of the late war, end cuisequently less repot.' to the deplorable oriole which so shook public credit F We would Implore them to consider whether reeponeible ministers, ea nossclag their policy to the Chambers, would not have suc ceeded better than mere articles In the Noniteur, in explain ing to the public of France and Italy the difficulties of the enterpias about to be undertaken. We would mak them to commit their consciences. and say whether the repose of Europe and the welfare of France would not be better gua ranteed by decisions calmly deliberated in the bosom of a national parliament that by thee* which depend upon the will of one man. In the affair known u the saltpetre affair," Demaret has been acquitted, and Sebille found guilty, with extenuating circumstances. He is con demned to six years' imprisonment, to pay I,ooofr. to each of the parties injured, with five years of coatrainte par corps. Moreover, he was declared by the court to be degraded from the Legion of Honour, as having " marquea l'honneur." The slow progress of the Zurich conferences damps speculation at the Bourse.

The following are authentic copies of two auto graph letters addressed by . the ex-Duke of Modena to his Prime Minister during the second autumn of the Russian war. They were found among the ducal archives, aced have been duly published in the ifedessa Gazette, as a hint, we suppose, to the Em peror of the French of the opinions entertained towards his person and government by the last and least of the Stuarts at a time when he was able to be insolent with impunity. The correspoudenoe is equally amusing and instructive as documentary evidence of the principles of the late exemplary Duke of Modena applied to the art of government; of the refinement of his manners, and the politeness of his style. The Duke must be sup posed to be in the act of supplying " copy " to his minister in the capacity of sub-editor of the only newspaper permitted in the Duchy—to wit, the Official Gazette. A batch of news has come to hand, and the question is how much of it is fit for insertion. Here we pass the word to Francis V. Pavallo, Sept. 9, 1566.

And, d propos of this I must inform you that it appears to me very improper th at journal should go on as it does gleaning Bonapartist 'Wire. On reading it no one could guess that it Is theournal of a govern ment which has not emptied N _ j apoleon—the journal at the only government which &ekes to know nothing of this brigand (di guel brigante). I was die punted to see in yesterday's number unwomanly copied tics 'Aide of the Menem on the Archduke Maximilian at Tou lon. Silence might hove been maintained, or it might he said that the Archduke had been fried, that be had seen everything ; but to repeat the words that he was In admira tion of Napoleon and of modern France is enough to make or Ist aer's arms fall and to mystify all the simpletons who will believe that to-reeerow • I wish to repair the wrongs of which lam culpable towards 11. Bonaparte. The Arch duke may ham proposed a toast to the self-styled Empsear, bat it is known that it was a dry one, and without adding • single word. He has been Invited to Paris, but he bee ex cused himself. Consequently, that ler the Motlikor (Note tear /genitor) assuredly relates facts which have no existence. 1 desire, moreover, and even I command you, to take the articles of the allord, that excellent and well edited journal, wbirh you have, and that you ley aside the filthy and stupid Costner Jtalien, and many Strdinlan gazettes, as well as the Triestine, which seem to be a little too much the moles of tics Yesooger, sad that you take only the =- different =tele ; but that the =tick s shall not be copied in abich are avowed sentiments contrary to sure. The I we ber! Gazette has sometimes excellent articles, full of just antipathy to that barraque Bonaportiste. Perhaps It would be well to trausleto dew, if a good translator me be found, foe I this just objection on your pert. I would have advised Ferdinand Galvoni to frequently consult his uncle, Don Cesar, on this composition. if he did so, I believe the matter would be better, inasmuch as I think the leper has mare (=muter and political colour. I conclude with toying that I em ever your very affectionate FRANCOIS.

The Chiristian hope expressed in the second letter r to " Dear Forel" were unfortunately destined to be disappointed; but it is satisfactory to know that the " ever affectionate Francis" was mistaken in conclu ding that " in this world rascals always triumph."

Altogether it seems the' modem cnilitwtiaa hoe rendered the Sold of battle more dangerous than formerly, but suppikd It with means of INDIA. We have received letters and journals from Bom bay, dated August 6, and telegraphic intelligence from Calcutta, to July 29. It is stated, with regard to the withdrawal of soldiers from the European regiments of the late East India Company, that close on six thousand men have taken their discharges, or are sure to apply for them under the orders recently issued. Some of the regiments are reduced to mere eke letont. Of the observance of the day of thanksgiving the journals give very copious reports. The day was a general holiday, a day of cessation from labour throughout Bombay. Parsee., Jews, and Hindoos assembled in their temples and pagodas for devo tional purposes, and wherever there was a meeting the most striking fact in connexion with it was the number and hearty spirit of an immense audience. It is said, however, that the Mahomedans did not resort to their mosque. and showed no disposition to devote the day to the purpose for which it was appointed. A solemn event ushered in the day at Rirkee, near Poona. The Venerable Archdeacon Reynolds, who had prepared a sermon for the occa sion, suddenly died in the early morning. Disturbances in Central India are slowly rub siding. A cyclone passed over Calcutta on the night of the 26th of July, doing extensive damage. The fol lowing was received at Bangalore. and had been for warded to Bombay by Sir H. B. O'Shaughneesy for the information of the press : CALCUTTA, JrLir 29, 1259. On the night of the 26th a cyclone pored over Calcutta, and the following morning every line was interrupted. Our strongest constructed lines have been swept away mike on the Barrackpore road. Seven large trees fell in different places, destroying poets and wire. Two steamers have been wrecked in the Hooghly, besides many sailing vessels; lives lost, and immense destruction done. The Candle mall steamer was seen off Sanger just as the gale commenced. She is supposed to have run out to sea again, and no tidings have since been received of her. Every available hand I have at work repairing damages done to the line.

The Cortes will open on the 4th of November next. The weather still continues hot, and the accounts of the vine disease are as bad as ever; little or no wine ' will be made this year throughout the length and breadth of Portugal. The works of the new Water Company have at length commenced, after remaining in abeyance about three years. If this company carry out the works as they have been projected they will confer a great benefit upon the public. At present the only means of water supply is the barrel of the carrier, and if the company convey it by pipes into the houses a great saving will be effected, and a more regular and plentiful supply secured. The Municipal Chamber are about to demolish the remains of the old church of St. Crispin, which is situated on the hill leading past the cathedral to the castle, and tradition says this was the road by which in old times the Portuguese attacked that fortifica tion when held by the Moors. The church of St. Crispin was partly ruined by the great earthquake, but a chapel was formed among the remains, where many relies of catholic saints have been kept. These will now be removed to the church of the abandoned Irish college of St. Patrick, in the immediate neigh bourhood. The King and royal family are still at the Palace of Mara. A solemn requiem masa and dirge have been celebrated in the church of St. Vincent for the re pose of the soul of the late Queen, at which Dom Fernando, the nobility, and foreign Ministers assisted. The Sams corvette will leave for Greenhithe on the 10th proximo. She takes a crew for the war schooner Maria Anna, building by Scott Russell for the Portuguese government. She has also on board the crown Jewels belonging to the late Queen, which now belong to her family, and which will be landed at Antwerp in charge of a Portuguese official. Mr. Alfred Tennyson, the poet laureate, arrived here by the last packet, and after a short sojourn in Lisbon repaired to Cintra, finding the streets too hot and glaring. In foreign exchanges transactions have been limited, owing to the scarcitynf paper, and a farther decline in the rate on London has been the conse quence.

The owner of the South Western is too tensible a men to cuter into such a competition, and therefore took the Teem] off, securing the money he bas already mode. The public of Malta are losers by this, for the South Western brought over bullocks at 16 franca each, which previously paid 25 francs by steamer. Some patrons at Naples and Malta are driving a most profitable trade by repeating what wee done some years ago namely, withdrawing the gold and silver coinage of England and substituting the coinage of Nsples and Austria at • false value; and tradespeople are almost furred to hike the dollar of Sicily, valu-d by government at 4., at 4s. 21. ; end hutted of the good and convenient coin of Great Britain the circulating me dium le rapidly becoming the Inconvenient and disagree. able coinage rat Sicily; mad this for the private advantage ad Individuals.
