LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 14, 1866. It seems from the news brought by the City of Boston that the Fenians are actually hi earnest this time, and have obtained at least a temporary standing ground in Canada. A body, variously estimated at from 500 to 2,000 men, crossed Niagara river on Tuesday, May 29, and captured Fort Erie, which, notwithstanding its pretentious name, is nothing more than a small and undefended vil lage a few miles from Buffalo. Having gained this point they threw up breastworks and remained waiting for reinforcements. The British troops are moving to disperse them, and the Volunteers ' have been called out, so that they are not likely to be left very long in undisturbed possession of their victory, nor will their reinforcements find it easy to reach them, although they are moving towards the frontier in large numbers, forthe Federal troops have also been ordered to the frontier to preserve neutrality—a task which they successfully accomplished at Eastport. At any rate, the Fenians have committed themselves to decided action, and have cut the telegraph and destroyed a part of the track of the Grand Trunk Railway. Rumour, as usual, is busy with alarming statements, which we may receive, however, with caution. It is curious that STEPIiENS disapproves of this movement and strongly denounces it, though it is uncertain whether from jealousy of SWEENEY, who is to take the command, from prudential motives, or from a well-founded apprehension that any decided movement may ex pedite the annihilation of the whole scheme, and the consequent fall of head centres and leaders from their high estate. It seems, however, that even Fenian credulity was exhausted, and that not only the adventurers who had prepared themselves for action, and looked forward to a fight with true Hibernian enthusiasm, but the bondholders and sub scribers who began to think that they paid their money for something else than to feast their leaders at the grand hotels, wereimpatient forsome decided movement. SWEENEY himself was not, it is said, quite prepared for so early a demonstration, but he is now committed, and since their retreat has been cut off by the destruction of the bridges, a fight was hourly expected when the mail left. A strong feelingTof indignation exists in Canada, and there is some irritation felt against the American Govern ment for not having interfered tocheck the progress of the Fenians across the border. If Mr. STANTON is so much interested in their cause, and so hostile to everything British, as to be anxious for their suc cess, he should at least remember that his official position involves him in serious responsibilities, and that the English Government have a right to feel some surprise that, after all previous professions, so large a body of men should be allowed to leave American ground for a friendly territory without notice or interference on the part of the Federal authorities. General GRANT has indeed now arrived at Buffalo, and has advised the calling out of the Militia in order to prevent the departure of any hostile expedition from Federal ter ritory, but this is rather late in the day. It is probable that this movement of the Fenians may in the end be advantageous by bringing the whole affair to a crisis, and by crushing out the absurd and mischievous conspiracy which has been suffered to continue too long. In domestic matters we learn that Mr. DAVIS'S health is greatly improved since the increased freedom allowed him, and the Radicals continue to give signs of weakness and dissension. The ob noxious 1870 clause has been struck out of the Committee's Reconstruction Scheme, and the Senate has now adopted in its place an amend ment, prohibiting all rebels who formerly held office for Federal State office. It is doubtful whether the Bill as it stands will eventually become law, but the fact of it being thus amended, much against the will of STEVENS, slows how strongly the tide has turned against the Radicals. By this time the Ambassadors of Austria and Prussia will have left their posts at the respective capitals of the two countries, and we may reason ably expect that we should now hear of something decisive taking place. Count KAROLYI has received a letter acknowledging the cautious manner in which he has fulfilled his duties at the Court of Berlin. Baron von WERTHER received his passports from Count MErisnonFF,with the intimation that the step was taken in consequence of the withdrawal of the Austrian f orces f rom Holstein, under compulsion from Prus s i a . This closing of diplomatic relations between the two Powers has been certainly the act of Austria, but the responsibility of it virtually rests with Prussia for having entered Holstein in so arbitrary a ma nner, and conducting affairs so strangely when the forcible entry had been made. France has very properly refused to undertake the diplomatic protection of Prussian subjects in Austria during the interruption of diplomatic relations be tween the two countries ; and so has Bavaria also. The proceedings of the Prussian Government in the Elbe Duchies are most offensive and dicta torial. General von MANTE'UFFEL has now decreed that every public functionary a n d official in Holstein shall take a solemn engagement, to the effect that he solemnly engages to " submit unconditionally" to the orders of the King of PRUSSIA, and of all authorities acting on his behalf. This is most harsh and unfair on the part of the Prussian authoriti es, and will contrast most unfavourably with the co arse pursued by the Austrians when in power. It.; seems a mistaken Policy on the part of the Austrian Government not to have had troops in readiness to prevent the en trance of the P • rnssian forces, ;because they had timely notice of such an intention, and it is always an error to give up anything al the outset of a war. It is curious to compare they idifferents aspects which the same event assumes *ben looked upon from a different point of view.

It states that "the march of the Prussians into Holstein is an event of the very highest moment, and that Prussia has thus proved her conviction that the Gastein Convention is invalid, for she has been guilty of a flagrant and unexampled infrac tion of it." On the other hand, the semi-official Norddeutsche Zeitung declares that the proceed ings of Prussia in the Diet are at variance with the Federal Constitution. The proposal for mobilis ing the forces of the Confederation is not in accord ance with Federal law, nor " can Prussia recognise the competency of the Diet to give a decision re specting international treaties already concluded." This is Prussian policy to the letter, ever ready to acquiesce in the legality of any authority that up holds its views, and .yet questioning the right of any Power or law that interferes with its working. In conclusion, we are told, and doubtless the information is true, that Prussia will be compelled to regard every State as its enemy which subscribes to the demands of Austria. The notion of Federal Reform at all is quite inconsistent with this conduct of Prussia, for if half of her plans were carried out it would be quite impossible for any change or alteration for the better to take place. The best proof of its inconsistency is shown by the unfavourable reception it has met with from the German Middle States, and so great has been the annoyance created that Hanover has ranged herself on the side of Austria, and she will vote for the mobilisation of the Fede ral Army, the very thing so inimical to Prussia. To-day the question will be settled at the Diet, but not much importance is attached to it, except in so far as it shows the state of feeling engendered to wards Prussia. The full text of the EMPEROR'S letter to M. DROUYN DE L'HUYS is now before us, but the most important points of it were anticipated by the summary of yesterday. The EMPEROR declares that the object before him is to put the conduct of his Government in its true light before the diplomatic agents abroad, and to make known the course of policy which France would have pursued had the Conference been carried out. M. DROUYN DE L'HUYS is reminded thereupon of the tenour which his language would have assumed towards the different representatives of the several countries assembled. He was to declare that he repudiated all idea of " territorial aggrandisement" so long as the equilibrium of Europe was not dis turbed. Then follows the celebrated passage to which we referred yesterday, of his unwillingness to extend his frontier, except in " case of the map of Europe being remodelled for the exclusive benefit of a great Power, and of the conterminous provinces demanding by votes freely expressed their annexation to France." This is a. very significant announce ment, and does not speak very favourably for the designs of Prussia, as she must be the great Power referred to in this manner. The EMPEROR opines that the " moral force" of France will be quite sufficient to protect the interests which she has at heart—namely, the preservation of the balance of power in Europe, and the maintenance of the edifice which the French have helped to raise in Italy. Those Courts engaged in the conflict have given their assurance to the EMPEROR'S Govern ment that none of the questions concerning France shall be solved without her assent. As for the objects which the EMPEROR would have sought ,to promote, they could hardly have been settled at any Conference, however favourable the circumstances might have been. It is not yet known what effect this statement has produced in Paris, but probably its meaning was pretty well guessed at by those well informed. We have at all events the opinion of the EMPEROR, that the force of arms will alone decide the question in dispute. The thirteenth meeting of the Royal Geogra phical Society's present session was held last even ing at Burlington House, and the subject first con sidered was one of great practical importance. It was the effects of the destruction of forests in the Western Ghauts of India on the water supply, and the paper written by Mr. MARKHAM, after careful observation, showed that the extensive clearings made for the several plantations on the mountains of southern India have produced a remarkable effect on the' climate. Great changes have been perceptible during the last twenty years, during which a total area of 180,000 acres have been cleared for coffee, tea, and cinchona planta tions. Sudden floods now occur, which are yearly increasing in volume and destructive ness. In Madras a system of forest conservancy pre vails, but Mr. MARKHAM suggests a better remedy in the construction of hill reservoirs, which should regulate the supply of moisture to the great plains, and thus prove a double blessing. These plains depend for their habitability on the rivers and irrigation works fed by the mountain rains, and the storing of water in these reservoirs can be effected at a rate of about £lOO of capital for a million cubic yards of contents. The ex pense need not interfere with the project. The cinchona plantations will, when fully grown, com pensate in some degree' for the destruction of the primeval forests, but on all these interesting points we have much to learn by experience as well as by study. The whole subject deserves, and will probably receive, careful attention from , the authorities, as well as from men of science. CORRESPONDENCE PROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Wednesday Evening. The memorable letter of the Emperor to his Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Drouyn de l'Huys, read yesterday all of a sudden by the Minister of State, M. Reuther, to the Legislative Body, the con tents of which, no doubt, you received by telegraph, has produced profound sensation in Paris. When I told you that the Emperor was "a man of impulse" I " spoke by the card." The Moniteur of to-day contents itself with publishing it, and, like the other morning papers, wants breathing time for its appre ciation. The Constitutionnel, however, says : " The Emperor's letter is the eloquent resume of the policy followed by the French Government from the commencement of the difficulties about to be solved by force of arms,which have agitated and disquieted Europe. These great words, inspired by the most profound wisdom, will be heard by the whole world. They will now even dominate over the report of war." One of the most splendid and attractive fetes of th limited to 350, but th Palace season has been given by the Empress at the of Ely see , i n h onour o f th e G ran d Duchess Marie o f R ussia.

Only 30 The gardens of the Elysee were illuminated with The bands of the Gendarmerie of the Guard played during dinner, and there was singing ' m the evening by the chorus of the Conservatory of Music. There has been a frightful catastrophe at Havre. The towing-steamer, Passe Partout, was about to take into tow the three-masted vessel Maria, of Caen, when her boilerbu rst. The chimney, a por tion of the deck, the steam engine and boiler were scattered into fragments, and projected to a con siderable distance. A sailor, named Jacques Manach, was blown to pieces. Three others are supposed to have been killed. The captain was precipitated into the air, and died in a very few minutes. The stoker, a man named Gallard, was killed ; his body was frightfully mutilated. Many of the sailors were also much injured. The Passe Partout sunk soon after the accident, and the Maria suffered considerable damage. A tragedy of real life, with startling accessories, has been elucidated by the Court of Assize for the Department of the Haute Saone. Two widows, mother and daughter, were charged with the murder of Jean Baptiste Collileux. The murdered man was the son in law of the former and the husband of the latter. The prisoners are Virginie Pipert, widow Petet, Marie Louise Petet, widow. Collileux was her husband. It appeared from the evidence that the mother in law had for some time past been actu ated with bitter hatred against her son-in-law, and she had been successful in making her daughter share that hatred against him. The father-in-law also joined in the feeling, but he was not inclined to commit murder to satiate it. There was, however, suspicion against him, and he was taken into cus tody, but he avoided inquiry by cutting his throat in prison. The victim, the unfortunate son-in-law, was a man of rare credulity. The mother-in-law persuaded him that there was a valuable treasure concealed at the bot tom of the Rahin, a river which runs near the vil lage of Lure, where the prisoners resided, and that they knew how to obtain possession of it ; but they told him that to effect this object it was necessary that he should sit on the ground, allow his feet and hands to be bound, and that he should be placed parallel to the river, his face turned towards the west, and that he should fix his eyes steadily upon the river, and watch its course until a sudden light from heaven should indicate the spot where the treasure was concealed. All this the victim did without difficulty, and in full confidence of success, and placed himself in the position which his two near relatives desired. As soon as the two women had arranged the matter, and while the poor victim was looking out for,the light from , heaven which was to lead him on to fortune, the elder pri soner struck him on the head with a heavy hammer with such force that he rolled over on his side and become insensible immediately. From the con fession of this tender-hearted woman it seems that she did not like to go too far, and she therefore called to her daughter, and said, " There he is." The daughter was unwilling to interfere in such a delicate affair, and this being so, the mother took it upon herself to finish it. The man being dead, the daughter lent her assistance to throw the corpse into the river. The jury found the mother guilty, and she was sentenced to death. With the usual kind ness and consideration of French juries, they found " extenuating circumstances" in regard to the daughter, who had at least been a spectator, if not an aider and assister, while her busband was being murdered, and so she was only condemned to hard labour for 20 years. This account may be read as if it were a sensation romance in a cheap periodical, but it is an " ower true tale,", analysed from the records of the Court of Assize of the De partment of the llaute-Saone, which has not yet finished all the cases to be submiteed to it at its present " gaol delivery." As an appropriate addition to this illustration of murder and disregard of the admonition " no thing extenuate," it may be added that a man named Jean Barre, found guilty before the Court of Assize for the Department of the Correze of murdering his wife and two of his children, has escaped the punishment of death from the sovereign sway which " extenuating circumstances" have over those who administer justice in France. Last evening we had a slight storm of thunder and lightning, and to-day the weather is unsettled and showery, and rather cooler. The observations at the Observatory lead to the expectation of vio lent storms all over Europe. Thus the new moon to-day is ushered in under troubled auspices. THEATRE ROYAL PRINCESS'S. Mr. Charles Kean's Hamlet. The character of Hamlet, as traditionally inter preted by an uninterrupted succession of great actors—according to Shakspere's own conception of how that wonderful and paradoxical character ought to be realised to sight and hearing upon the British Stage—finds its last representa tive (take the words literally, its last re presentative) in the person of Mr. Charles Kean. The Traditional Hamlet, remember ! The very Hamlet of Shakspere! The character of Hamlet as Shakspere himself intended that character to be impersonated ! Generation after generation that Shaksperian interpretation of the part has come down to our own time. Tragedian after tragedian has carried our great dramatist's own notion of the character down to us, turn by turn —as we have already expressed it, uninter ruptedly. Burbage, Taylor, Betterton, Booth, Garrick, John Kemble, Edmund Kean, Charles Young—until the series is completed, and closed, so far as we have yet any reason whatever to know, by the distinguished actor who last evening per formed the character once more upon the boards of the Princess's. As to the part itself, it is pro verbially the most arduous in the whole range of the drama. It is, to this day, an enigma all but inscrutable to the most astute of Shaks perian Commentators. Technically speaking, it is well known, in regard to the mere length of it, as beyond all comparison the longest part upon the stage—a part extending, if we re member rightly at this moment, to no less than thirty two " lengths," otherwise to upwards of twelve hun dred lines, according to the Acting Version of the great Tragedy. As for the Prince himself, " Ham let the Dane"—Coleridge speaks of him by no means extravagantly when he calls him " the darling of every country where the literature of England has been fos tered." Yet, beloved thus though the character of Hamlet is by all those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, brains to think and hearts to feel, it is so far an enigma, as we have already said, all-but in scrutable, that Schlegel is forced to the conclusion in regard to it, that it is a work resembling " those irra tional equations in which a fraction of unknown magnitude always remains that will in no way ad mit of solution." Perhaps, indeed, after all, Goalie's clue through the labyrinth, is the surest—guiding us through most of its entangled involutions to the central heart of it— where (is it not in Wilhelm Meister) he suggests that " the key to Hamlet's whole procedure" is dis coverable in his own agonised ejaculation— " The time is out of joint, 0 cursed spite! That ever I was born to set it right !" And it is as the last (shall we say, lineal ?) descendant of the traditionally Shaksperian imper sonators of this exquisite and marvellous creation, that Mr. Charles Kean, whenever he assumes the character, captivates the attention of his audience, no matter where the stage may be erected upon which his representation of the part appears, as at once upon a pedestal and within a framework—whether here in England or at our Australian antipodes ! After him —other impersonators of it there will be, as a matter of course. But—so far as we have yet any reason to know—there will be no traditional delineation of the character as it has descended from Burbage to himself. Contemporary with Mr. Charles Kean's Hamlet, one remarkable impersonator of the part there happily still is no doubt yet remaining to us. But his Hamlet is distinctly, and avowedly, and recog nizably, and undeniably, an innovation—an innova tion even to his very aspect, a blonde Hamlet being absolutely unknown to the stage until the appearance of Mr. Fechter. But the Hamlet who has been more or less familiar to the boards of our great English theatres during these last 300 years or thereabouts—Hamlet, as he has come down to us not only from the hand of Shakspere as Dramatist, but from the guiding and directing influenceof Shakspere as Actor and Stage-Manager. —that is the view of Hamlet's character, of which Mr. Charles Kean has the con spicuous but mournful _eminence of being the very last tradition al representative. Any thing like an analysis here of his inter pretation of the part 'would be worse than merely supererogatory would be little else than simply tedious--would be certainly out of place as far more than a thrice-told tale, would be hardly less than an impertinence. Enough, if we content our selves with remarking, here very briefly., that it was applauded to the echo, this world-famous represen tation of Hamlet—applauded at times with abso lute enthusiasm by the audience, assembled last night to welcome it back once more to the boards of the Princess's—Boards upon which the chief points of Charles Kean's impersona tion of Hamlet have so often and often before now been greeted, as they were last evening, with frequent bursts of acclamations. How far this impersonation still continues to be appreciated by our contemporaries here in London, the following ex pressions of opinion will significantly serve' to indicate. It would be ungracious, however, if we did not add, no matter how tersely, that the Gertrude of the play last night, as interpreted by Mrs. __Charles Kean's rare abilities as a tragic actress; was again noticeable as a most pathetic and impressive performance. Mr. Mead looked the part of Claudius far better than he acted it. - Whereas Mr. Cathcart acted the part of Laertes far better than he looked it. Miss Chapman both looked and acted Ophelia very gracefully. Mr. Vollaire's Polonius was senile and unexaggerated. Mr. Robins's Rosen crantz was simply simpering --Mr. Everett's Horatio a mere nonentity—Mr. Shore's Osrick was in itsway excellent—and Mr. Dominick Murray's First Grave digger drily, perhaps a little too drily, humorous. The Tinzes, always enthusiastic about Mr. Charles Kean's impersonation of Hamlet, reserves its opinion of last night's performance, we presume until to-morrow. The Morning Hcrold says emphatically, "Doubtless, the Prince of Denmark is Mr. Kean's most finished achievement, and through it in an especial manner his nama will be handed down to posterity." The Morning Post observes—" Mr. Charles Kean appeared last night as Hamlet, the part in which he first acquired his reputation, and which he has performed more fre quently than any other in the course of his professiorte career." The Star says of the impersonation that "It unquestion ably exhibits marked intelligence, and gives abundant evidence of diligent and conscientious study." Adding, a little later on —"it will suffice to state thatlast evening Mr. Charles Kean, adhering in all respects to his old reading of the character, made all his familiar points in the familiar manner, and was rewarded with frequent and cordial applause by a large and evidently most appreciative audience." The Morning Advertiser goes so far as to say that "Per haps of all the Shaksperean characters performed by Mr. Kean there is none more immediately associated with his dramatic reputation and histrionic fame than that of Hamlet. The conception itself is impressive throughout and Mr. Kean's rendering conveys a more clear notion of a sustained individuality than any other in his usual range." The Daily New 3 contents itself with remarking—" Mr. Charles Kean has given up Louis Xl.,' in which he stands without a rival, and has takes to ' Hamlet,' in which he has many rivals. He appeared last night for the first time during his present engagement at the Princess's in this arduous Shaksperian character, and was very warmly received by a crowded house. THE REAL SCENE OP GRAY'S ELEGY.—IIere, perhaps, we may as well devote a few lines to the pretensions put forward by other country churchyards to the distinction of having originally suggested the " Elegy" to Gray. Of these Grandchester, near Cambridge, and Upton, about half-way between Slough and Windsor, assert their respective pretensions with the greatest confi dence, though others have occasionally put in a more mo dest, though not more doubtful, claim. Mitford it is well known, has argued s t rong l y i n f avour o f Grandchester, but I must own that the weight of evidence, both internal and external, seems to be strongly opposed to his view. There are those, too, who believe that the little Norman church of Upton, long in ruins, but recently restored, is the pnototype of the church which Gray celebrated in his " Elegy ;" but although we must own that something may be said in favour of the ivy -mantled tower, surrounded by yews, yet that is the only feature peculiar to Upton ; and it must be remarked that tho spire which surmounts the church of Stoke is a modern addition to the tower, and not 100 years old ; so that ivy mantled tower will harmonise as well with Stoke as with Upton, while the former can point to its "spreading elms," which Upton cannot."—Once a Week. LA TEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) ROME. IiOME, JUNE 13 (Evening).

THE FENIAN RAID. TORONTO, C.W., June 1. The intelligence that several hundred Fenians have congregated at Buffalo with the intent of making a demonstration against Canada produces very little excitement here. In case of danger the railway authorities have adopted precautionary measures by withdrawing all surplus cars from the Suspension Bridge. Telegrams arrive from Buffalo of an exciting cha racter. It is said that the Government are fully aware of the movement, and are prepared to resist any Fenian incursion. Yesterday the Soldiers' Industrial Exhibition was opened by Major-General Napier 'in the name of her Majesty, on which occasion the royal salute of 21 guns was fired. Colonel Lowry, of the 47th Regiment, then read an address to General Napier, to which the latter suitably replied. The bands of the 47th and 17th Regiments attended. The Industrial Exhibition was well attended, considering the inclemency of the weather, and many of the articles exhibited attracted merited at tention. One article, the Royal arms, beautifully worked by the schoolmistress of the 47th Regiment, has been purchased for the Queen. THE BOMBAY MAIL. SAL TA, June 13. Tha Jeft - liere at 5 a.m. to-day.

It was the 23d week of the year, and the average number of deaths for that week was, with a correction for increase of population, 1,196. The actual number exceeds the estimated amount by 187. Under the influence of summer weather there is a decrease of the mortality that prevailed in May, during which the average weekly number of deaths was above 1,500. There were, last week, 34 deaths from small-pox, 71 from measles, 43 from scarlatina, 75 from whooping cough, 53 from typhus, and 22 from diarrhoea. In the last three weeks the mean temperature of the air was 52.0 deg., 56.2 deg., and 61.0 deg.

We regret to announce the death of Count Kiel mansegge, for many years the Hanoverian Minister at this Cuurt. lie died at his country seat in Holstein, and the news of his death only reached his daughter, Lady Walden, on Tuesday night. During his long residence in England Count Kielmansegge had formed many friendships, he was very widely known beyond the ordinary bounds of diplo matic society, and will bo much and deservedly regretted. THE ARRANGEMENTS OF THE LIVERPOOL STOCK EXCHANGE.—During some discussion yesterday at the meeting of the council of the Liverpool Chamber of Com merce on the question of the recent panic, Mr. Stitt ex pressed his satisfaction and that of the council with regard to the course adopted by the committee of the Liverpool Stook Exchange, with a view to prevent the wholesale de preciation of stock in periods of panic. He expressed a hope that similar arrangements would ere long be adopted by the London committee. FRANCE. The Prefect of the Seine has published a notice to the effect that an enquete has been opened at the Mairie of the 6th Arrondissement on the proposed alterations in the gardens of the Luxembourg. The plans, showing the suggested changes, will be open to the public for a fortnight. The transformations contemplated are the opening of 11 new public thoroughfares on ground detached from the gar dens ; the enlarging of a portion of the Rue Bona parte, and the conversion of the central avenue of the Observatory into a public promenade. After the exhibition of the plans, the authorities will re ceive during the three following days all remarks or suggestions which may be made on the advan tages of the project or the contrary. • The third and last ballot for assigning the grand medal of the Exhibition of Living Artists took place yesterday at the Palace of Industry. The number of voters was 174, and the votes given were-50 to M. Bonnat, 49 to M. Carpeaux, 32 to M. Corot, 36 black bulletins, and seven so irregular as to be void. No artist having obtained the re quisite number of votes, the medal will not be awarded this year. The murderer Aspe, on his arrival at the hulks of Toulon, made a new statement as to the manner in which he had made away with the missing head of his victim, the girl Guillouet. He now says that after having burnt it in a manner to render it unrecog nisable, he threw it into the wheel of a mill, where it was ground to pieces. The Semaphore of Marseilles announces the arrival at that port, from the East, of Lady Franklin, widow of the explorer of the polar regions. Her ladyship soon after embarked for Bastia, with the intention of visiting Corsica and Sardinia. She is in her 83d year, and enjoys excellent health. A Naples letter says :—" M. Thalberg's time has not been spent in vain ; the great musician has be come a large grower of grapes, and, what is more, a first-rate maker of wines. What he • produces is something more than ordinary table The spot he has chosen on the corniche of Posilipo is highly congenial to the grape, and the produce is far before many wines imported from Bordeaux. He makes from the Bordeaux grape, which appears to thrive just as well at Posilipo as in its native clime. The wine is better than half the Bordeaux we drink, for it is pure, sound, wholesome, and palatable, and at the price one may get it at is one of the most pleasing liquids one could possibly put upon the table." The bulletin of the Paris Observatory gives the following as the atmospheric situation yesterday : " Bad weather is speading in Europe. A gale is passing over the north, the centre of which was yesterday towards Finland. Another is following closely at a little lower latitude. The sky is stormy or variable over Spain, Western France, and the British Isles. Storms are occurring daily in Italy." At Paris, yesterday, the early part of the day was fine, but towards 5 o'clock a thunderstorm broke over the city, which, however, was not very violent or of long duration. At 3 in the afternoon the thermometer marked 28.7 cent. (83 3-5 Fah.) The Lombardia of Milan publishes the following declaration addressed by Kossuth to the Hun- garians : Turin, June 6. A great number of my fellow-countrymen, from diffe rent parts of Italy, having asked me what they ought to do under the present circumstances, and it being impossible for me to reply personally to all, I declare, by these pre sents, that in my opinion all those of my fellow-country 'men employed in military service or any other duty would do well to remain where they are and await patiently the course of events. Those, on the contrary, who have no occupation, who are fit for military service, and have a wish to enter it, will do well to enlist in the Hungarian legion. They may besides be all convinced that if affairs become developed so far as to offer a field of action to their patriotic zeal, due notice shall be given them. L. KOSSUTH. The Aldan Gazette reports the arrest of six priests who were incessantly manifesting their aversion to the existing order of things. It appears that at their houses some compromising papers were found, which leave no doubt as to their hostile intentions. The Polish emigrants, who formerly furnished a considerable contingent to the corps of Italian volun teers, remain in the reserve. The advice of Prince Czartoriski, and likewise, without doubt, the not very warm acceptance they have received from Garibaldi, have led to this expectant attitude. BOURSE, June 12.—Two o'Clock.—There is little doing in the market to-day, speculators being generally preoccupied with the letter from the Em peror relative to European difficulties communicated HER MAJESTY.
