MARCH 12. Tat Emperor of the Fattecti has chosen a sin , solar time—a time in which the world as looking for deeds and passing judgment on them according as they are good or bed—tor publishing a remodelled theory of Universal Suffrage. It can hardly be a passion for abstract speculation which has led his MA 1 ttct T back to this subject. The reposition of the Furrows as • prectioal statesman will compel people to seek out some connexion between the dogma reposuded and the exigencies of Imperial policy. M.I3I4IIIDGCILMT has been instructed to contest is the Cewstittitiotesel the validity of the vote by which the people of Tuscany are at this moment uniting their dostioy with that of Pied moot, and for this purpose to maintain that it has nothing binding in it, because It relates to something beyond the frontiers of the Stays Universal suffrage—such is the argument—can only be applied to the internal affairs of a country, and cannot serve to modify the exercise of the sove reign power in relation with foreign affair', nor for the aggrandisement of a territory. A false est/m -ai= of its principles may become an important DOOMS "of trouble. and dangers to Europe." Appreciating at its fall value the anxiety of the Imperialist writer for the tranquillity and safety of Europe, let us im partially examine his doctrine. If the question debated in Tommy were whether the State should be constituted with one Represen tative Chamber or with two. the validity of a (loci sloe by universal suffrage would be irrefragable. Bat if, instead, the people undertake, not simply to regulate the exercise of their franchisee, bet to place their liberty and their very political existence under the protection of the only Prisms able or willing to su"our them, their resolutios is denounced to Europe as worthless. Let us look at the subject from another aide. The French joursals have repeatedly told us that the poor people of Savoy ardently long to share the happiness of Impe rial France. The importunities of the French Government have induced Count Cavouk to advise his Sov IKE GN to consult the inhabitsole of that province on the subject. At this moment a proclamation by the Kino's Government is posted in all the parishes of Savoy, notifying that the inhabitants will be called upset to vote for the maintenance of the union with the monarchy of Sardinia or for tion to France, according to the fors prescribed by Firliansest. Now, amosliogr l to M. Gasnaautttafs rule, that universal Mirage can only be applied to the internal affairs of the country, it follows that, should the Savoyards vote for remaining as they are, their vote will be good, since it concerns only the voters in their relations with their fellow-citizens; but, that if they should vote for annexation with France, their TIMM weight be thrown away. This is not our segsmat f bat it is the fair development of that of M.OLutootrium. Bat the hostility of the French Goverment to universal suffrage dose not end here. We publish to day the despatch in which Count CAVOUIt replies, on behalf of the Mao, to that in which M. Tuouvartzt bad requested has bardinian Msjeety to give up Savoy and rice to France, on the ground that, " se " cording to historic trsditions, the formation of a " strong kingdom beyond the Alpe would be unfavour " able to the interests of France." Count Caton& does not discuss the question how far France may insist that her neighbours shall be weak in order that she may be strong. Neither does he point ma that if France is not safe with a traria, population of, 36,000,000, still less can Piedmont, with a population of only 9.000,000, affrid to part with military poeitiono, and the most military rues to be found on her soil. His answer is marked with calmness and dignity. He says that for even greater advan tage* than any which his Government expos, the Ktea would not bargain away the ter ramies which have for ages formed the glorious appanage of his House. But he is not namiudfal of the altered situation io which events la Italy have placed the people of Savoy and MOP, sad will imam- fuse to the people of those provinces the same Minty to dispose of themselves as he claims for the peopluel Central Italy. They shall have an oppotissity at freely declaring their will, and notwithstanding the stroog regret which the Xlau would feel if a people V . TIER EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 12, wine have so lug lived under the sceptre of his anesetorre should now resolve to cut thearatilves off hem the rest of his states and seek other destinies, whatever that will may be, he will restl.ect it. How does the French Government Apts . ; to this noble intimation ? Let its answer be carefully noted, for it will be immortal as the name of NAPOLEON itself. M. THOU UM disc oven an essential diffe rent:4l between the question of the annexation of Tuscany to Piedmont ar.d that of the annexation of Savoy to France ; ant. the principal difficulty which opposes the first is, he says, to obtain its recognition by Europe, which has guaranteed the possession of Tuscany to the dynasty of Lorraine. Bat in the cue of Savoy this difficulty disappears in presence of the arrangement between France and Sardinia re lative to the spontaneous cession of Savoy, conse quently the Emperor of the French requests the regulation of the question of &coy by a simple cession, to be settled by mutual consent, and without haring recourse to universal suffrage.' M. THOUVEN EL thinks that to become ac• quainted with the sail,' of the country it would be sufficient to consult the municipalities of Savoy,' And who, then, is this Sovereign, who, when the Head of the oldest Royal House in Europe is ready to release his people from their allegiance if they, indeed, wish to place themselves under another sceptre, says "No, but rather hand them over to me " unasked P " Can it be that LOUIS NAPOLEON, for ' whom France defied European treaties, and whom universal suffrage called from a private estate to a throne, now identifies himself with the usurpers and hereditary tyrants of Europe, and proclaims himself ready to deal with a brave population as if it were a flock of sheep? Was there no friendly band to stay the Woe of this disastrous deepatih, and protect the EMPEROR from self-betrayal ? After all, we are not answerable for the good conduct of the French EMPEROR. If he is bent on throwing away the noblest opportunities which Providence has ever placed before a ruler in our dais be must do so. Even if we have no faith in the strength innate in the cause of freedom and progress, we have seen within the last twelve months the faults and errors of individual. reputed almost omnipotent corrected and redressed by the peaceful, powerful action of public opinion. To the operation of this force, present, Europe owes in great part the peace it en joys. But public opinion, which often restrains armies, sometimes impels them. Europe was not helpless last year, when it stood by and saw treaties torn, traditions violated, end provinces wrested from their rulers. The end proclaimed was one which it in the main approved, and it was content to lcik patiently on. It would be • great mistake—a mi‘take which men who understand their epoch are in no danger or making—to imagine that the public opinion of Europe may safely be defied. The time is come which will try the princes and statesmen who figure foremast in the affairs of Europe, and they will be judged, not according to the sage or foolish things they have said or written, but according to what they dot and they will prove the wisest and strongest at the trial ' who can do most to satisfy the real wants of their age, sod connect their deeds with the advancement of freedom and the reservation of peace. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE ITALIAN VOTE. -•- BOLOGNA, Sylmar, Nrxa P.Y. There has been an immense concourse of people at the voting to-clay. Out of 27,000 persons inscribed on the electoral lime, 17,000 had voted by 6 o'clock this afternoon. The town is illuminated, and the Marquis Popoli has received a grand ovation. FLORENCE, SUNDAY Naar. The number of people assembled to vote has been ' very great and perfect order has prevailed. Out of 32,000 persons inscribed on the lista in Florence, about 16,000 voted to-day. The streets are decorated with French and Italian An ►ddress to the Bing has been signed by the clergy. The peasants, headed by their cures, are on their way to the voting places, and maintain admirable order. The people are everywhere enthusiastic and fall of confidence, and their attitude is excellent. MODENA, 13UNDLY 11VINLNO. In all the towns of the Bmilian Provinces the number of people assembled to vote is extraordinary. In the country the clergy are conducting the po pulation to vote for the annexation. MODENA, MAzcR 10. Crowds of peasants, displaying flags, are ar riving from all parts of the provinces, in order to be itueribed in the lista of the ap proaching suffrage. The same enthwiium pre vails throughout the Ernilien provinces. The Modenese clergy have addressed • petition to the governor, expressing their wish for annexation to Piedmont. The clergy of Piacenza have trials_ mitwd an address to the Intendant-General, accom panied by • letter to the King, in which they say that the duty of the clergy is to give an example in acts of patriotism. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Name 10.

It is stated that, although declaring an intention to maintain a passive attitude if the Emperor Napo leon persists in the realisation of his wish for the annexation of Savoy, Austria has nevertheless noti fied to our government that she has already informed the wart of the Tuileries that if ever the Rhine fron tier should be menaced, the Emperor Francis Joseph would immediately unite with Prussia for the pro tection of the territorial integrity of the Germanic FRANCE. The Moniteur of to-day says :—Yesterday the Hanoverian Minister presented his Itottrea de cremes to the Emperor. SERVIA. BELGRADE, MARCH 10.

The Cologne Gazette and the Independanee Bilge concur in the expression of a belief that a conference will be assembled at the request of France to con sider the question of Savoy, and that is this confer ence the efforts of England will be especially directed to the object of seaming Chablais and Fan , cigny for Switzerland. Prussia and Ramie, these journals say, would be disposed to ratify the annex ation of Savoy to France with the exception of the above two provinces. It might be hoped, after the statement in M. Thouvenel's despatch of Feb. 24, that Prawn had claimed the annexation "subject to the interests of Switzerland, which we shall always be desirous to take into consideration," that the condition now assumed to be insisted upon by England, in conjunction with other powers, would be readily acceded to. Nevertheless, the semi official journals have, since the date of that despatch, vehemently urged the right of France to push her frontier to the very threshold of Geneva, and French agents are still actively at work in Chablais and Faucigny. The Pair(' of this evening publishes a letter dated Fancigny, March 6, and supposed to be written by a native. The writer says that whenever he looks towards France he feels homesick. All other rule but that of France is to him foreign domination; he represents the sighs and groaned the inhabitants of Faucigny, who, whether under Roman pro- consuls, Swiss depredators, or Piedmontese clerks, have known nothing but persecution throughout a long vista of centuries, and now at last see a haven of happiness in the bosom of France. This enthu siastic candidate for French citizenship is thrown into ecstasies by that word in the Emperor's speech, so horrible in the eyes of Sir Robert Peel—revers diver. This word " assumes; a form, a voice, and almost a soul" in his imagination ; he and his fellow countrymen see in it" the genius of nationalities disdainfully rending the shameful work of the osalition ;" but here the simple-minded Savoyard begins to perceive that his " style is not quite epistolary," and he "stops." The pause, however, is merely to give him breath to drop down from the high flight to which his eloquence had carried him. Re proceeds to certify, and 1 take his evidence to be valuable, that " the French manifestation in Fancigny and Chablais follows its imposing— (imposing is a happily chosen word)—its imposing course in every commune." The Steele has received a warning for quoting with approbation some passages from a recent theo logical work, published at Brun* by M. Larroque, formerly rector of the Academy of Lyons. M. Larroque's book had been prosecuted, but upon his mounting to the destruction of the copies seized in Frans*, the Procurenr Imperial had entered • soils prosegui. The article of the Slick now incriminated appeared on March 9, under the signature of Louis Jourdain ; it is described in the warning as contain ing " attacks upon the fundamental principles of Christianity," and which are " more culpable when propagated through the periodical press than in works which, by their form and nature, are addressed but to a small number of readers." Contrary to established practice, this warning has been commu nicated to the evening papers before it has appeared in the Sleds itself. Mr. Parisi', the Bishop of Arras, Boulogne, and St. Omer, has written a letter to M. Thotivenel on the subject of the spiritual and temporal power of the church. His argument is moderate in form, but in substance he goes perhaps further than any prelate has yet dose in denying the Gallic= distinctions between spiritual and temporal thing., and he claims the most comprehensive jurisdiction ever con tended for by the court of Rome. It is understood that Cardinal Antonelli's answer to M. Thoaveners last despatches has arrived in Paris. Count de la Ferriere-Percy (a brother of one of the Emperor's chamberlains, and a cousin of two of the Empress's ladies of honour), who was lately elected a deputy for the Arne u a government candidate, he. been recommended to resign his seat rather than face an inquiry, pertinaciously called for by the Marquis de Toney, into various frauds, misrepre sentations, and aota of illegal intimidation by means of which, as it is alleged, the election was carried. ITALY. -.-- CENTRAL ITALY. MON Olni SPICIAL COMMIPOWDINT4 BOLOGNA, NAscit 6. I should not be at all surprised it the Austrians were plotting mischief, and preparing for a new and more obstinate struggle against Italy. Parini's manifesto was, as you know, published here early in the morning of the Ist of March, and already, at daybreak on Saturday last, the Austrian army, which occupies the Mantuan districts, on the right bank of the Po, was suddenly increased by 3,000 men. The small corps d'armee, which in the event of a new war would form the avant-garde of an Austrian army moving against Central Italy, is now about 6,000 strong. What, therefore, could have induced the enemies of Italian independence to make such an augmentation of their forces on the boundary of Modena and Parma but the idea of attacking these provinces as soon as the Emperor of the French announces his abandonment of Italy to her fate ? The fear of being attacked by the army of Central Italy cannot surely have caused such a measure, for the cabinet of Vienna must be fully aware that all the Italians want is to be left alone in the final settle ' ment of their internal affairs. It appear., therefore, to me that the attitude of this northern power is any thing but reassuring, and that it does not intend to keep the peace, a was stated in Count Rechberg's last despatch. The order issued by the military go vernor of Mantua on Sunday morning makes still clearer the warlike intentions of Francis Joseph. After the peace had been signed at Zurich the peasants of the bordering states of Mo dena and Parma were allowed to cress the Po, for the great emigration which had occurred in the Mantuan province made it necessary for the proprietors of the land to draw from the country a large number of labourers. On Sun day morning a decree was issued by the Austrian General Cubes that no person would be henceforth allowed to cross the river under the most severe penalties. This order, so injurious to the agricultural interests of that province, must have been determined on for some serious reason, and confirms the opinion that Austria is really bent upon mischief. That such is the case may also be inferred from the fact that new fortifications have beea ordered at Revere, Moteggiana ' and Sustinente, three important points from which the forward or backward movements of an army coming from the Venetian provinces can be successfully protected. The threatening attitude thus assumed by Austria mast be, and it is so here, considered as the consequence of M. de Thou- Tenet's famous note. This unexpected docu ment issued by the French Foreign-office at first produced a very bad impression both in Central Italy and Piedmont. This impres sion has, however, been modified to some extent, for the Italians, who, in spite of their fervid tempera ment, are essenti ally logical, have not overlooked the fact that when M. de Thouvenel wrote to Count Cavour, the Emperor was under the impression that both Parini and Ricaeoli made an obstinate opposition to the ides of having universal suffrage employed for the final settlement of the Central Italy question. Now that this principle has been not only loyally accepted but actually applied by the rulers of these provinces, the main argument of M. de ThoavenePs note falls to the ground, and Louis Napoleon's oppo sition, if sincere, ought therefore to disappear. We are already aware, by the very words of the diplomatic document, that his Imperial Majesty of France has made no objection to the annexation of Parma and Modena. The two questions at issue are, therefore those of the Legations and of Tuscany. To have the former erected into a Sardinian vicariat under the high dominion of his Holiness is the project so much re commended by French diplomacy. But even sup posing for a moment that the Pope eoald be induced to accept such an absurd so] ation—a thing which very much doubt—how could the people of the Le gations be persuaded to accept even the shadow of papal authority ? How could they be brought to make the required distinction between the direct end nominal dominion of the two sovereigns ? If the principle of universal suffrage is so dear to Louis Napoleon he cannot surely impose on the people of these provinces the recommended solution without having it put to the vote. The act which the people of Central Italy are called on to accomplish on the 11th and 12th of this month will, besides, completely solve this question ; for if they do not want to be annexed to Sardinia, liberty has been left to them to vote for the formation of a 'operate state. The same reason can be urged for Tuscany, for the Emperor of the French could not consistently im pose on it a form of government which its people do not like. Here therefore, as well as in the kloailian provinces, unive rsal suffrage must decide. If the four words, " Italy for the Italians," have any meaning, they mean that the Italians are to be left to arrange their internal affairs as they like without the slightest moral or material pressure from abroad. It may suit Imperial views to threaten them by hinting that the French army will withdraw from Lombardy ; but as long as England stands for the principle of non intervention, both Victor Emmanuel and the rulers of Central Italy will courageously follow the path they have wisely chosen, and form a united consti tutional state without oaring for Buonapartist caprices or taunts. The Usione Liberate of Turin says :—" When the Piedmonts,e shall occupy the Emilian provinces, the central command of the army will be at Bologna, under La Marmon. One division of La Marmora's will march into Tuocany, another to the frontiers of the Papal States, and the third will remain at Bo logna to complete its military instruction." Cbc Court.

The independence states, in very positive terms, that Marshal Vaillent has received orders to return home with the army of Lombardy the moment the annexation of Tuscany and the Romagna* to Piedmont shall be officially proclaimed. It goes so far as to say that Marshal Valliant communicated this order to the King of Sardinia through M. d'Aseglio, the governor of Milan, and that after • cabinet council, held on the 6th or 6th of March, for the express purpose of taking this serious announcement into consideration, Victor Emmanuel and his ministers deliberately resolved to persevere in their national policy, whatever might be the con sequences. On the other hand it is observed that the Turin journals bring news quite opposed to that of the Independence—they say that the French armyis about to concentrate itself in the neighbour hood of Pavia. The Opinion Nationale, which haa all along shown an unreserved sympathy for Italy, now expresses a hope that even if the French army should be really coming home the consequences will not be so serious as might at first be thought, because Napoleon 111. would still maintain the principle of non-intervention, and Austria would think twice before undertaking a second campaign which might malt in the loss of Venetia. The Military Gazette of Turin states that the whole army of Sardinia is ordered to be upon a war footing by the let of April. The same journal says that Piedmont is about to secure a quantity of rise barrels from Eng lish arsenals, and that Colonel Marabatto is about to visit London in connection with the purchase. TURIN, MARCH 11. Baron Talleyrand has remitted to Count Gavotte another despatch of M. Thonvenel, which replies to Count Cavonr's despatches of the lit and 3rd Much. M. Thouvenel points out die essential difference which exists between the question of the annexation of Tuscany to Piedmont and that of the annexation of Savoy to France, and says that the principal difficulty which opposes the first is to obtain its re cognition by Europe, which has guaranteed the possession of Tummy to the dynasty of Lorraine. In the latter this difficulty disappears in pressmen of the arrangement between France and Sardinia rela tive to the spontaneous cession of Savoy, oonse quently the Emperor of the French requests the regulation of the question of Savoy by a simple cession to be settled by mutest consent, and without having recourse to universal suffrage. M. Thou easel thinks that to become acquainted with the wish of the country it world suffice to consult the municipalities of Savoy. As regards the annexation of Tuscany, M.

Proclamations of the Government of Savoy have been posted in all the parishes of that country noti fying that the inhabitants will be called upon to vote for the maintenance of the union with the monarchy of Sardinia or Sc, annexation to France, according to the form prescribed by parliament. CHAMBER'S, MONDAY. The Courrier des Alpe* publishes a supplement, annouumng, upon information obtained from an offi cial source, that Savoy will not be dismembered, but will form two departments, and will preserve the Court of Appeal at Charabery. THE PAPAL STATE&-THE POPES REPLY. PARIS, 8011 DAT, MACH It. The reply of the Holy Bee to the last proposals of France las arrived here. The Pope declines the proposition to confine within an exclusively political compass a question which, as it concerns the inte grity of the patrimony of St. Peter, is intimately bound up with the independence of the church. Although decidedly rejecting the proposition to create a vicariate of the Romagna in favour of • foreign sovereign, his Holiness shows himself dis posed to enter into the path of reform on condition that the integrity of the States of the Church is I guaranteed. THE TWO BIOMES. (non 0011 OWN NAPLES, XLAcx 3. Often as it has been my duty to describe the fol lies and the excesses which are perpetrated here, never have I had to recount any so great as those which have been just committed by this govern ment. At the beginning of the week it was reported that an incendiary had attempted to set fire to a part of Naplu, near the church of the Carmine, and several arrests were made. It is believed, however, that the attempt was au invention of the police. On Wednesday afternoon, Giuseppe de Simone, an ad vocate of note, a literary man, and one who is widely known for his devotion to the liberal cause, was arrested as he was leaving his house. It will throw light on the character of Neapolitan justice and of the judicial bench if I state that, having gained a cease in the Consults on Monday last, he was about to visit and thank the judges. It is the regular practice so to do, as it is for the servants of the judges to call on the suc cessful advocate and demand their fee. On the same evening De Filippis, another advocate, was arrested, and on the following morning his brother Fran cesco. On Thursday morning all Naples was astonished at seeing the Toledo and other great thoroughfares of the city occupied by heavy patrols of police and gendarmes. Cavalry were stationed on the road to the Campo, cannon in the Largo del Pigus, and double cartridges were distributed to the soldiers, who were kept in barracks ready for any emergency. At half-pest one o'clock in the day the Grand Guard was reinforced by the addition of 100 infantry and 40 cavalry. The General of the Pinza of Naples took up his post there, whilst the Director of Police, Signor Ajassa, drove through the public places of the city, as if anxious to represent himself to be the preserver of public order. Later in the day the police went through the Basso Porto and the " Orefice," urging the people to shut their shops, and aseigning as a reason that there would be a row towards the evening, and that they must take every precaution against injury or lose to themselves. Such arrangements as these of wares filled every one with consternation, and the more so that no one could explain the cause of this military and police display. There had been no demonstration, no overt act of any kind, &clear sky was suddenly overclouded, and people looked at one another with surprise, and asked why cavalry were paraded through the streets, and cannon were planed in readi ness to fire upon them. As night approached the authorities began to arrest, and in a few hours the following persons had been laid hold of, or had evaded arrest by ooncealing themselves :—Prince Torella, Gentleman of the Bedchamber; Marches Monterosao, Cavalier Mezzacapo, Marchese Vol cano, Marchese Bells, Duke Proto, Prince Campo reale, Marchese de Montefaloone, Duke Laverito Monfort, Signor Giuseppe de Simone, Signor Gen naro de Filippis, Signor Francesco de Filippis, Sig norVacce, ex-attorney-general, and Maestro Giuseppe Cinque. Besides these, other persons were ar rested to the number of fifty, some say, but I am disposed to reduce the calculation to 26. It is difficult to describe the impression which this intelligence produced in society during the evening. Scarcely anything else was spoken of, and since then persons of all (dames seem to have been per- fectly paralysed by this gross outrage, I will not say upon liberty, but on common decency. Even Austria would not have dared to commit such an act, for though she is despotic she observes a system ; nor at the same time is there, I believe, another people in Europe who would submit without a blow to such gross indignities as are practised upon the Neapoli tans. I have not even as yet been able to find any satisfactory reason for the proceedings of the last two or three days. It is asserted that bills have been posted against the walls inciting the people against the dynasty, but I have not seen one of them. Again, it is asserted that a demonstration was intended to have been made ; but the liberals deny it, and those with whom I have spoken declare that they knew of no intention of the kind. In short, the general impression is that the whole affair has been got up by the authorities to intimidate the population, and to serve as an excuse for putting their hands on certain obnoxious indivi duals. Those whose names I have mentioned form a part of a list given to the Director of Police at the beginning of the reign as dangerous persons to be laid hold of in case of necessity. Yesterday morning Mr. Elliot and Baron Brenier remonstrated strongly with Signor Carafe, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, on the illegal and revo lutionary acts of the day before. But mark my words, nothing will produce any impression here until the cannon thunders at the gates of Naples, and then fear will yield what common sense, justice, and humanity have failed to persuade. Many of those arrested yesterday will be sent off in exile to-day to Civita Vecchia—the Marchese Bella, Duke Proto, Marchese and Cavalier Monterossi, Marchese Yule. no, De Simone, and others. HUNGARY. (7710 Y OVA CAM 00211111PONDENT.) PESTH, KAZCH 6. The Emperor Francis Joseph never reads news paper., neither does he care for them; but his ministers cannot afford to ignore the opinion of Europe, and are therefore very angry to see that the English, the French, and the German pre*s have succeeded in getting regular and correct information from Hungary. Baron Thierry, the Minister of Police, is at his wits' end to discover the cor respondents, and the means by which they forward their letters ; unable to get any hint from hie detectives, he resolved to have the houses of the per son. most likely to be in oonnezion with the foreign press searched, and their private papers examined. Accordingly the day before yesterday the polies suddenly invaded, at six o'clock in the morning, the houses of some twenty persons at Vienna and here at Pesth, and carried off their correspondence and private notes. Among the gentlemen thus surprised and alarmed we find old Count Stephen Szechenyi, the veteran reformer; his son, Count Bela Szechenyi, whose frequent visits to London have excited suspi cion, and his step-son, Count Zichy ; Mr. Hollku, distinguished officer of the late Hungarian army and commander of the fortress of Peterwardetn in 1849, who has lately published a pam phlet advocating the re-establishment of the Hungarian constitution; several German lite rary gentlemen, and even Dr. Gutherz, a Vienna barrister, brother-in-law to General Mayerhofer, commander-in-chief of the Papal army, were exposed to the same treatment. The search was fruitless, but it has excited the indignation of the people to a fearful degree, since all the gentlemen they alarmed belong to the upper classes of society, and nobody now feels safe in his own house. The correspondent of the Leipzig Deutsch* dilgeinsins Zeitung was discovered last week, and has been imprisoned. He will be tried for some tramped up charge, since he would be able to justify and to prove every word of his correspondence if his printed letters were to be adduced against hint. Thus, Julius Scirossy, the poet, was tried and sentenced to one year's imprisonment, ap parently for having recited some treasonable political poetry, though it turned out to be only on crinoline; whilst his real offence was that he had become in timate with some French prisoners of war, who might have written some articles in the French papers about the misgovernment of Hungary and the hatred of the nation against their rulers. The poor fellow hu been carried away in fetters to a fortress in Bohemia, where he will find plenty of fellow sufferers from Venetia. About sixty of these unhappy victims of tyrannical suspicion have lately arrived at Peterwardem on the Danube, where they were shut up in the dungeons of the fortress. It is perfectly impossible to get any . information about their names, they are now designated only by numbers, and nobody but the commander of the fortress knows their names and former station of life. About one-half of them belong evidently to the edu cated, well-to-do classes; and there are youths amongst them who have scarcely attained their six teenth year. Their crime is as unknown as their names, since they have never been before a judge,and were even, according to the government papers, im prisoned in order to prevent them from becoming dangerous to the state. I recommend this fact to the peculiar attention of Lord Normanby. About double the number have been sent to the fortresses of Bohemia, whilst the prisons of Innapruck and of the Tyrolese fortresses have been so completely filled with gentlemen (signori) of the Italian Tyrol, that the sentries had to be doubled, for fear lest the prisoner should combine for escape. I take this fact likewise from the official Vienna papers. The Post publishes a letter addressed to Lord Normanby by General Decavero, the Tuscan Minister of War, whom Load Normanby, in his pamphlet, " The Cabf net and the Congress," has charged with appropriating public) monies of the Tuscan Stets to the amount of 60,0001. Iss the name of public morality and justice, the Sardinian gene ral, who has honourably served his country for a period of forty-seven years, now publicly calls en Lord Normanby to place the grounds for ouch a charge in the hands of Baron likasoli, the bead of the Taman government; "and in tha nem of English integrity and honour," observes our con temporary, " we declare that if Lord Normanby doss not swam this appeal he will be branded by the public opinion of his own countrymen as guilty of the most groundless and heartier calumny."

Tater. has just sent to his publishers the last shies of the 17th volume of his " History of the Consulate and the Empire." This volume concludes with the abdication at Fontainebleaa. It will appear for sale on the 20th of March. It is said that the " History of the Hundred Days" will form the subject of the 18th and last volume.
