say ! A la Porte ! A la Porte ! " In any church such conduct as that of the Abbe to the Englishmen would be grossly unjustifiable, but in the Madeleine it i pec uliarly scandalous, for that church is one of s the show-places of Paris, and people go to its services because they hear as good music and singing, and witness as much theatrical splendour, as at the Opera. The Emperor has gone to Plombieres, and his Majesty intends being a month away, partly at that place, and partly at the camp at Chalons. The Empress remains at St. Cloud. This separation of the Imperial couple has given rise to reports of grave dissension between them ; but they are un• founded. The Emperor since his accession to the Throne has been in the habit of going to PlombVeres alone, and he does so because he can dispense with that pomp which the presence of the Empress necessitates, and live—it would perhaps not be right to say en garcon, but as a private gentleman. Alter several years lethargy the Legitimist party of this country is, it appears, about to make a de monstration, to prove, I suppose, that it is rot only not yet dead, but has not even lost all hope of even tual success. The demonstration will consist in as great a number as possible of the party going in the course of the summer to pay their respects to the Count de Chambord, who, according to then., is the rightful King of France, and it will come off at some German city, probably Frankfort. After it, it is not improbable that the Count de Chambord may go to England. I have heard it said that the Emperor of Russia has given permission to the famous General Totleben, of Sebastopolitan renown, who is now in Belgium, to advise with the Belgian Government or the project for fortifying Antwerp in a formidable manner. Advices from Berlin received here this morning say that the Queen of England is to visit the Princess her daughter and the Royal Family of Prussia in August next; but at Cologne or some where on the Rhine, not at Berlin. A curious circumstance is related in the Patrie of this evening :--A Russian frigate, the Polkan, has gone into the Adriatic, and has placed itself under the orders of the French admiral, Monsieur Jurien Lagraviere. The Madrid telegraph announces a change of Ministry in that Ministry changing city. O'Donnell it at the head of the new Cabinet, and M. Herraera, Xlinister of the Interior in the Isturitz Cabinet, joins him. Why M. Isturitz and the rest of his colleagues have been turned out is not stated. INDIA. THE PRESS, THE BOMBAY MAIL. 1.

A party of about I,odO men, with four guns, supposed to be from Humeerpore, reached Azung, on the Grand Trunk Road between Lullutpore and Cawnpore, on the 29th of May. The road is fairly closed. Some thousand rebels, horse and foot, with eight guns, in three divisions. crossed from the Humeerpore side of the Jumaa to the Shorapore Ghat, on the Ganges ; the last division crossed on the 29th of May—they are proceeding w Oude. Middleton's columns arrived at Mohar, opposite the Shorapere Ghat, on the 30th. Brigadier Carthew, with a small force, had marched for the same point on the 29th of May. Brigadier Sir Edward Lugard defeated the rebels near Judespore on the 20th of May, killing a great number. Our force, by the latest accounts, was still in pursuit. Calpee was entirely in our possession, both town and fort, on the evering of the 23rd of May. Large stores of guns, gunpowder, and other munitions were found in the fort. A flying column which was sent in pursuit of the rebels quickly came up with them, killing a great number, and capturing eight of their guns. One portion of the rebels succeeded in crossing the Jumna, but appear to have been attacked and dispersed by the Zemindars of Russulobad. Another and larger body escaped towards Gwalior by Jaloun. and were about twenty-four miles from Gwalior on the 29th of May.

Rosa made his approach by the river side ' below Calpee, having entered into communication with Colonel Maxwell, who held a position on the west bank of the Junina, sops to shell the town and fort. The enemy offered tfo resistance, and the city fell with out any loss on our part. A rapid pursuit was made by cavalry, and the result was the capture of all the guns, elephants, and ammunition.

The Moniteur Prustrein contains a royal order prolonging for three months the delegated functions of the Prince of Prussia. His Royal Highness set out on the 30th of July for Baden. The Temps has a strong article on the question of the garrison of Rastadt. The dispute becomes more and more serious. ITALY. The correspondent of the Daily News gives the following : On Wednesday, the 16th June, the Cagliari was given up by the Neapolitan Government to Mr. liarbar ; and a corporal with three marines took possession of her. On the 17th an officer of the Centaur, Lieutenant Teller, and a boat's crew, went on board and brought her out of port, anchoring her off Santa Lucia, one of the most conspicuous spots in Naples. At four o'clock in the morning of the 18th the Centaur got up her steam and stirted for Salerno, where she arrived about ten o'clock. All passed off quietly ; not a voice was raised, and in a short time the captain and his crew were transferred to the Centaur, where they were rezeiveJ with every expression of sym pathy and kindness. " Thank God !" exclaimed the captain, "we are tinder British colours. Oh, whet have we suffered. They stripped me of my clothes without respect to my age. You have no idea of the indignities which have been practised towards me." Whilst prepara tions were being made for leaving Salerno, some perons came on board to visit the quondam prisoners, and crowds of hosts continued to ply around the steamer. About twelve o'clock the Centaur left Salerno, arriving in Naples soon after five o'clock in the afternoon. It was known where she had been, and whom she had brought up, and Santa Lucia was crowded by persons anxious to catch a glimpse of the Sardinians. At seven o'clock in the evening an interesting ceremony took place. Captain Sitzia and his crew were transferred from the Centaur to the Cagliari, and put in possession cf their old ship. No flag, however, was hoisted as yet, nor was the craw per mitted to laud during the remaining time that they stayed in Naples. From the city the vessel presented a spectacle which attracted the attention of thousands of curious spectators. For many a month had the Cagliari been lying within the Military Port just at the balk I f the King's palace, where his Majesty could, on occasion of his "angel's visits" to tl e a ital, feast his eyes on th e, one of the great triumphs of his vast naval power. N. sr she was anchored off, under the protection of the British guns. f have made some inquiries as to her size and con ' aition, facts whi:di will posses• some interest fur the reader. Her length is 195 feet, and 15 feet 8 inches in the beam ; she carries 58:1 tons, and is of 60. horse power ; besides the captain, there were eighteen hands on board, one of whom, poor Fromento, it is reared will not live long to enjoy the liberty so recertly secured, rnd fin , which sickness had made him pine for now so many months. On the evenirg of the 18th, the captain and two mates dined with the officers, and toasts were given in honour of the sovereigns of the two allied States, of congratulation to the prisoners, and wishes expressed for the strong union and friendship of Great Britain and Sardinia. Up to this time, the Cag liari had not hoisted any flag. On Saturday she clean cl out ; late in the evening she procured her bill of health, and on Sunday morning, at six o'clock, she lett the port of Naples, which she entered a year ago within a fe.v dAya, the Sardinian flap flying at her peak. it is a graceful att on the part of our Goverument in having sent i) Mr. Barber, who has taken so prompt and energetic a part in this trying affair, to deliver her up to the Sardinian aotho ri ies. On the arrival of the crew in Naples, the Port Admiral acknowledged the courtesy of Captain Clifford, in going down to Salerno for ,hem, intimating the great diffi culty there would have been in bringing them up by rail. THE DANISH DUCHIES. Lie Journal de Dresde declares that there is no foundation for the statement that France has taken measures for bringing the question of the Duchies before the European Conference ; and it Fives room to believe that the Confederation is about to proceed with energy against Denmark. milowlmonimmiglimiorminimmiNElNNlMMEA I
