Sw,3 Office, 112, Strand. \ " 4 Ttl e ; T,ONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, lasB The position of Russia since the termination of the late war, and the course of policy adopted by her Government, are worthy of attentive consi-; deration. Many questions of paramount im portance mu3t receive complete answers before we can decide on the future prospects of peace and tranquillity in Europe. One point is already, unfortunately, but too perceptible. It is plain that the Muscovite snake has been merely " scotched, not killed," that the execrable policy inaugurated by the First PETER is Still stead fastly pursued, and that the attempt to "Cossackise" Europe has been only postponed, not abandoned. The fatuity that looked to sparing the honour of Russia, rather than obtaining security for Europe, has thus been clearly illustrated. In March we had the game in our own hands. We could have dictated our own terms, and the exigencies of Russia were such that the CZAR must have submitted to any conditions, however onerous. But in Imperialism and Coburgism she has bad two most effective auxiliaries. LOUIS NA POLEON could not press too hardly on a member of the Imperial Triumvirate. Like a parvenu, seeking admission to society, he would submit to anything to obtain a mete temporary recognition. His influence was thrown into the scale to obtain impunity for the most important member of the confraternity into which he had so recently been admitted. Austria, too, was to be conciliated, and there (as well as with Russia) he had the full co-operation of the Coburg influence. And thus it occurred that Russia was permitted to escape sc3,thless, without giving indemnity for the past or security for the future, and all the sacrifices to which England and France so cheerfully submitted were rendered utterly fruitless and unavailing. Had it not been for these baleful influences Rus s ia would have been compelled to pay the whole e xpenses of the war which she had so wantonly and deliberately occasioned. She should have satisfied the just demands of England, France, and Turkey, and we are speaking within bounds in declaring that two hundred millions of pounds sterling would not have been an extravagan t claim. Ti m e would, of course, be given for the gradual liquidation, and if the instalments bad been spread over 20 or even 40 years, the payments would have operated as a salutary preventive of further, aggressive move ments on the part of th e great Northern Power. But it was only with a power IfEe - China that we could insist on the satisfactory settlement of d a mages and costs. The Celestial EMPEROR. had no German cousins to plead i n hi s f avour. Th e brother to the Sun and Moon could not excite any back-stairs' influence. There was no Thuringian diadem which he could assist in fixing on a c o _ , burg head. c on sequently, he had to suffer for acts, and had to ha n d over the his cc I mper ial" sycee silver which for so many years coastituted rfiE SUN. LON - 1)0N, S4TURDA.Y ' - e.; - /ENIINTO OCTOBER 18 85 an important item in the revenue returns of each succeeding quarter. Single the ratification of the Precious Treaty, we have had many striking illustrations of Russian faith. At Serpents Island, at Kars, at Reni, and Ismail—and, above all, on the recti fication of the Bessarabian frontier, tl.e Russian Government clearly showed a deliberate intention to wriggle out of the most express and positive stipulations of the Treaty, while Austria main tains with tenacious grasp her hold on the Prin cipalities, rendering the condition of the unfor tunate inhabitants even more deplorable than dur ing theßussian occupation. The Note, or rather the Circular, respecting Naples also proved that the CZAR was still resolved on maintaining the interests of despotism in any shape, however re volting to humanity, or, as our facetious contem porary, Punch, explained, that BOMBA should not be deprived of his playthings so long as his big brother could protect him. But these overt acts were scarcely as significant as the attempt to procure, by extravagant subsidies, twenty steam-ships, all constructed for war purposes, although without the armaments to do the work which three might easily perform, and also the project for attracting tens of millions of British and French capital into Russia for the formation of a line of railways cal culated to consolidate and strengthen the military power of Russia ! We have already pointed out that these lines could not possibly prove remunera tive without the Government guarantee—that they are, in fact, neither more nor less than ingenious devices for attracting bullion to Russia, which would be safely locked up until a suitable oppor tunity occurred for a new aggressive movement, while any expenditure was paid in inconvertible rouble notes—in other words, a loan to Russia on cheaper terms than she could otherwise ob tain Her Ministers are wise in their generation. They are thoroughly acquainted with the opera tion of our unwise and inequitable monetary code, and, having discovered the means of in flicting the most serious damage on England, are sparing no pretexts to render the blow as effica cious as possible, so as to humble the once formidable Power, which, on many former occa sions, compelled a moderation very distasteful to the AUTOCRAT and his brother despots. Although the regular mail-service between Eng land and Australia cannot be in actual operation— to and fro—before February, it may be regarded as already in some sort virtually inaugurated. The newly-organised Company—that of the Euro pean and Australian Steam Navigation—having in a great measure by this time completed their preliminary arrangements. Insomuch that to-mor row (Sunday), the 19th of this present October, the first of their great steam-ships, the Oneida, is to take her departure for Melbourne and Sydney, from the Docks in which she is at this moment lying at Southampton. Another magnificent vessel, the Simla—one of the glories of the Pe ninsular and Oriental Company, magnanimously placed by the managers of that company at the disposal of their successful competitors for the Australian contract with her MAJESTY'S Govern ment— will follow, according to the arrangements already announced, upon the 12th of the ensuing month cf November. The European taking its departure in due course along the same route upon the 12th of December, and being followed in turn, upon the 12th of January, 1857, by the Columbian. The two last mentioned steam- ships now fitting out in the Clyde—while other vessels of corresponding magnitude are at this moment being built at Glasgow ; although it is hardly expected any one of them can be completed much before the early autumn of next year, either August or September. Splendid steam-ships each of them—one of 1,000 tons and 300-horse power, the African, one of 2,300 tons and 500-horse power, the Asian, another of the same tonnage and the same horse power, the Tasmanian, and a fourth, the largest of all, namely of 2,800 tons and 700-horse power, the Australian ! Such are the eight superb vessels intended to be chartered upon the oceanic route between England and her antipodes when once the mail service shall be fairly begun in earnest, to and fro, between Sydney and Southampton via Suez and Alexandria ! The steam-ships of the new Company running in regular correspondence, that is to say, on either side of the Asiatic isthmus —thitherwards between Suez and Melbourne— hitherwards between Southampton and Alexandria. A communication this, to which we have long been looking forward with an anxiety scarcely admitting of exaggeration. A regular, direct, speedy, reliable line of communication between the centre of the British Empire and the most splendid of all its many possessions, that of its great Antarctic Continent—having now during several years been recognised as what, in the your every-day puff-prospectus, is classic slang of pithily termed a desideratum. At length—here is actually what we have all this while been yearning to accomplish. Here, at last, it is lite rally and substantially secured to us—in its entirety at a data no further removed fro:a the present moment than the beginning of next February—partially even, no further off than the forenoon of to-morrow. There is reason in all this, we cannot but think, for a cer tain degree of sober and rational exultation. Better things are, of course, in store in the hereafter. But already in the mail service between England and Australia, as at this very period chalked out, via Suez and Alexandria, there is an appreciable foretaste of yet speedier intercourse between ourselves and our colonial antipodes, a sort of recognisable anticipatory relish (as we may call it) of the ultimate intimate union of the two, by the instantaneous reciprocation of thought, rendered possible by the magic wires of the submarine electric telegraph. Preliminary to all which coming wonders we have guaranteed to us the solid boons accruing from the contract entered into by the European and Australian Steam Navigation Company, securing the advan tages of a regular, direct, speedy, reliable mail service between Sydney and Southampton, par tially from Sunday next, entirely from the ensu ing month o f F e b ruary. I n appropr i a t e celebra tion of which the European a same great pond Australian enterprise, stal ste t a h m e Directors of Navigation Company, gave on board the Oneida on (as a report of the proceedings pub lished in our impression of the ensuing evening a kind of inau g urative entertain duly intimated), ment. Conspicuous among the facts mentioned at which entertainment were two. One a gentleman inci dentally mentioned by of autho rity in Tasmania (the Secretary, in fact, of the General Postal Association of the Australian Colonies) illustrating, in a remarkable manner, the necessity for some more rapid interchange of communication between Great Britain and her Antarctic possessions—namely, the significant and notable circumstance that there are being educated in Europe, upon a moderate calculation, from 1 1,500 to 2,000 children of Australians. The o ther fact coming from the li p s of one no less em i nen t as a great public benefactor than Row-LAND gra, the Author of the Penny Postage system—namely, the encouraging fact, that after all we are nearer evert than the United States to the realisation of :ELlliu BIIEMITTs S day-dream of an uniform ocean penny postage ! For, as RowL IND HILL explained clearly enough, although merely a penny is charged for the transmission of a letter from the United States to Australia, it is, nevertheless, at the same time subjected to an inland rate of Ikl. in America and to anon er of 4d. in the colonies, making just 61=1 for the entire trans mission. A single sixpenny post: Igo stamp mean while conveying any letter (free of all further charge) from England to her Austr a lian possessions. Encouraging considerations all these as to the past, but, at the same time, incentives to still larger, more ambitious, and more comprehensive improvements. Tim decision of the Horse Guards in the case of Cornets Lord VANE TEMPEST and BIRT can excite but little surprise and no regret, s l ave what may reasonably be felt for the pain it must occasion their friends and relatives. The ex-parte account of the fracas given to the public was, probably, as Lord ERNEST VANE asserts, exaggerated, but there can be no doubt the unbiassed report of the Court of Inquiry was of a nature which left his Royal Highness Commanding-in-Chief no alter native. So far the justice of the case has been met, and the young scapegraces have themselves to thank for their dismissal. Conduct like theirs it was impossible to tolerate, or not visit with condign punishment. This much, however, may be said in extenuation of their offence, and it does not go far ; by all accounts it was not only coun tenanced, but shared, by an older and superior officer, Lieut. WINSTA.NLEY. Had his countenance and example been wanting the deplorable out break might not have taken place—at all events could not have been carried to such an extent. In justice the Horse Guards must go further, and give this officer an opportunity to qualify or dis prove the allegation against him ; and if unable to do so satisfactorily, we can not see how lie should escape being cashiered. The sooner this is done the better for the army, for all parties indeed the lieute nant perhaps excepted. Imperfect justice always leaves a rankling sting behind it, and redounds neither to the honour nor credit of its dispensers. Let 113 hope the affair will soon be numbered with things that are past, save in the army itself, where the fate of the offenders, it is greatly to be desired, may operate as a useful example. Both the offenders are young men, and with their advantages will have abundant opportunity to redeem the past, and become as much a credit to their country and friends as they are now a source of discredit and unmerited pain. The brave old Marquis of LONDONDERRY, fortunately, cannot feel the disgrace brought on his honoured name—may it be the lot of the benevolent and enterprising Marchioness to find hereafter in her now untoward son a recompence for the grief he must have occasioped her, not only as a mother, but also as the lineal descendant of the distin guished TEMPEST family. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, per. 17. The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by the Princess Royal and Princess Alice, walked and drove in the Home Park this morning. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent visited her Majesty to•day. S:r H. Darkly had an interview with Mr. Secretary Labouchere yesterday. The Bishop of Gibraltar, Mr. Bowen, of Trinidad, and Major Grant had also interviews with the Right Hon. Secretary at the Colonial•ofce. Sir George Grey arrived in London on Thursday evening from Edinburgh. His Excellency the Prussian Minister and the Countess Bernstorif are expected to arrive at the resi dence of the Prussian Legation, to-Jay, from the Con ti❑ent. H►s Excellency the Marquis d'Az3glio returned to the residence of the Sardinian Legation, a few days ago, from Turin, and has since been on a visit to Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston, at Broadlands, Hants, and to the Earl and Countess of Shaftesbury, at St. Giles'F, Dorset. The Marquis and Marchioness of Stafford, who, after the coronation festivities at Moscow, proceeded to St Petersburg to embark at Cronstadt ou board the noble marquis's splendid screw steam-yacht, arrived off the Sutherland coast, on Friday last, and shortly afterwards disembarked, and proceeded to join the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland at Dunrobin Castle. The Marquis and Marchioness of Ailesbury arrived at their mansion, in Pall Mall, on Thursday night, from Moscow. The Marquis of Granby has joined the family circle, staying with the Duke of Rutland at Belvoir Castle, Leicesterehire. There is no truth in the report of Lord John Manners' impaired health. The statement sra originated by some provincial newspapers, probably with a political object. The Earl and Countess Granville arrived at Carlsbad on Tuesday from Berlin, in which capital they had made a brief sojourn on their way from Moscow and St. Petersburg. The noble lord contemplates a residence of about a month at Carlsbad, The Board of Inland Revenue now consists of six members. The salary of the chairman will i❑ future be 2,0001. Mr. Pressly, the deputy-chairman, it ie expected, will succeed the late Mr. Wood. Tue North London goods railway was, on the occa sion of her Majesty's return from Scotland, first used as a passenger line. Should the directors follow the example set by the Queen, and open the line for passen ger traffic, pas, , engers will be enabled to proceed from the Great Northern Terminus at King's-cross to the Blackwall Railway Station in Fenchurch-street. A declaration has been signed between Russia and Sardinia, by which all treaties in existence before tLe war again come into force. The Belgian Moniteur contains a convention con cluded with France, by which all persons attacking the life of a foreign sovereign shall be liable to extra dition. At the meeting 'of the guardians of the poor at Marylebone, last night, the Master of the workhouse complied with the order of the Poor-law Board by ten dering his resignation. George Blake, a notorious thief, who was only two days ago acquitted at the Middlesex sessions, was yes terday again fully committed for trial from Lambeth Police-court, for a burglary. No gold was taken from the Bank of England yester- day for exportation. The letters from Paris yesterday are less discouraging. The half-monthly settlements had passed off well, and money was more easily obtainable both on the Bourse and in the discount market. THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK.—The solicitor of the late Mr. Gwynne, in a letter to the Times this morning, says Mr. Gwynn(' was a director till January, 1852, and-that the securities for the advances made to him in 1851 were placed before the board in the same manner as those coming from other customers. Mr. Gwynne urgently opposed the advance on the Welsh ironworks, but was outvoted. In conclusion, he says Mr Gwynne died of a broken heart within three days after the publication of the leading article in the Times on the causes of the dis astrous failure. THE TREES AT THE BRITISH MUSEIIM.—A correspon dent of the Times this morning complains of the destruc tion of the trees in the garden of the British Museum. "If one thing more than another," he says, "tends to break the dull monotony of the streets of London and to form a p!es.sing objeot to the eyo, it is the existence of the few trees we have planted in the squares, and occa sionally in some of the open spaces at the corner or the side of the street. This being the case, they should not be cut down and lopped at the caprice and whim of any individual, more particularly when such trees are public property, and have, from sixty years' growth, become an ornament to the neighbourhood."

The Ministerial crisis in Denmark is at length at an end. All remain except M. Bang. M. Andra© is rppointed Premier ; M. Unsgaard, Minister of the Interior of the whole Monarchy ; M. Krieger, hitherto in the Ministry of Schles wig, is.now Minister of the Interior to Denmark Proper. VIENNA, Our. 17. Baron Hubner has left for Naples. The Austrian, Gazette and the Ost Deutsche Post confirm the fact of a pressing note of the French Government having arrived. The evacuation of the Principalities by the Austrian troops has commenced. MADRID, 16TH. The Gazette publishes a number of decrees dis missing old governors of provinces and appointing new ones. The old mode of government of the household of the Queen has been re-established. A Royal decree restores to the bishops the power of conferring Holy Orde rs , conformably to the Concordat, and authorises novices to profess in convents. M. Manresa is appointed director of the Post-office, and M. Fernando Alvarete Under- Secretary of State for Grace and Justice. Intelligence from Constantinople of the 10th states that negotiations, opened for the nomina tion of Reschid Pacha to the place of Grand Vizir, had failed. The Journal de Constantinople of the above date pubsishes a despatch similar to that which appeared in The Sun of yesterday, respecting the defeat of the Russians by the Circassians. The battle took place on the river Seba. It also says that the Russians have been driven back from the river Kuban, with the loss of many men and guns. A letter from Vienna of the 11th, in the Con stitutionnel, says :—" A report was current to-day that a second despatch from Naples of General de Martini, our plenipotentiary, had arrived, and offered but slight hopes of a pacific solution. The King and his courtiers believe that in case of an extremity they can reckon on the fidelity of the army and on the assistance of the population. Will events justify that confidence ? M. de Buillac, of the French Foreign-office, has arrived here with important despatches for Baron de Bourqueney, who had an immediate conference with Count Buol," Another letter from Vienna states that Baron do Mamula, Governor of Dalmatia, has left for Ischl, in order to communicate with the Emperor relative to the affairs of Montenegro. The Paris correspondent of the Times (second edition) says " Lord Howden, her Majesty's Minister at Madrid, had an audience with the Emperor yes terday at St. Cloud. M. Turgot, the French Minister at the same Court, was present, but I believe no one else. The Emperor was most gra cious in his reception of Lord Howden, and warmly shook hands with him on entering and on leaving. The conversation, I understand, turned principally on Spanish affairs in general, and particularly on the recent, and for any other country extraordinary, changes which have taken place there. Oa a former occasion I alluded. to the same subject, which is so far important, as it relates to the Emperor's views on the Anglo- French alliance, and I now willingly revert to it. I am unable to affirm whether the Emperor is dis satisfied with the manoeuvre which overthrew the O'Donnell Cabinet, and which he and his Govern ment so little expected ; or whether he had any decided leaning towards the late Prime Minister of Queen Isabella more than to any other whom he thought competent to save monarchy in Spain from the errors of one party or the excesses of the other ; but I have some reason to believe that his Majesty is contented to accept the chang3 as an accomplished fact, and watch over the future. But what the Emperor appears to have most at heart, and what, if I am rightly informed, he distinctly expressed yesterday, is that England and France shall act cordially and thoroughly in . this as in other great questions of European in terest. He expressed his earnest desire that the French and English Ambassadors at Madrid should act so as to carry out the judicious policy of the two Governments, and that they should heartily co-operate with each other. The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post (second edition), in his letter of yesterday, says : "If I am correctly informed a telegraphic h d i c a h n d declares France that reached of ie d Paris which t ul he usagehas representatives re la w n notified to the Neapolitan Government tl • lea. re call. As no notice whatever had beeli taken of this notification by M. Carafa, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Brenier, the French Minister, and Mr. Petre, her Britannic Ma jesty's representative, were about to withdraw. I must, however, inform you that a considerable amount of intrigue is going on in Paris in certain quarters to influence the action of France. The King of Naples, I hear, has had an agent in Paris for some days ; and if that agent is the person named he has been employed by his Majesty on more than one occasion when the offices confided to him could not bo performed by a respectable diplomatic servant of the Crown. I believe this person's mission will fail, although some delay may be caused, as on former occa sions, when trickery has been resorted to. The French and English Governments, I hear, have agreed not to allow Austrian intervention in the affairs of Naples." In a letter from Naples, dated Oct. 13, the writer says _ _ "The Neapolitans are tired of wa itin g for the fleets. They think grave political even ts are to take place w ith th e facility of changes at a theatre. So some say there in no hope for them now that France and England have thrown them over. We hope and know better things, and are not disheartened nor frightened by Russian swagger as reproduced by the Court party there. The King will hold out to the last moment ; he thinks he loses nothing by waiting, and he knows there is no internal danger to be dreaded. The people, you are aware, have no arms, no leaders, and little confidence or reliance in one another, so completelyhasGovernmentdemoralised them. The strong point is, that the very means the King uses to hold his throne are the infringements of international law and a direct violation of the Federal laws of Switzerland—viz., importing the Swiss ! Without these Swiss troops King Ferdi nand would not remain many hours in Naples. As it is they give him confidence and confirm his obstinacy. We are expecting a British steamer every hour with important despatches, breaking off diplomatic relations. The town is perfectly tranquil, and there will be no demonstration unless it is got up by the Neapolitan Govern ment. But the defensive preparations continue, and cannon are carried about, and ships are manned, and there is plenty of playing at sol diers, in which the King delights. &rale Neapo litan families have left town, and the city is unusually gloomy. The King's head quarters are at Gaeta, which he considers as his Sebastopol." On the fete day of the Hereditary Princ e th e English and French Embassies illuminated ; not so the Sardinian. The relations between this last Power and our Government continue hostile. The works for the defence of the Kingdom are continued with the greatest activity. No modifications have as yet been made in the Ministry. Stock has been heavy at 1071. A letter from Berlin of the 16th, in the Ger man Journal of Frankfort, says :—" Count de Hatzfeld, Prussian ambassador in Paris, who has recently arrived here, had a long interview this morning with M. de Manteuffel, after which he proceeded to Potsdam, where he had an audience with the King. Count de Hatzfeld will repre sent Prussia in the new conferences at Paris. The date for the opening of these conferences has not been fixed, but it will take place before the 15th November. The Count returns to Paris before the end of October. Several journals have been wronly informed in stating that the King had received a deputation from Neufchatel, at Hohen zollern." The Madrid j SPAIN. ournals of the 13th have arrived. The Gazette contains a long string of royal de crees accepting the resignation of the O'Donnell cabinet, and nominating Narvaez and his col leagues. The decree respecting Marshal O'Donnell is thus conceived :—" I accept the resignation of the functions of Minister of War and President of the Council of Ministers which has been presented to me by Marshal Leopold O'Donnell, Count de 'Ancona, and I remain highly satisfied with his dis tinguished and extraordinary services, and with the zeal, intelligence, and devotedness with which he has fulfilled the said functions. Given," etc. The decree appointing Marshal Narvaez is thus worded :—" Taking into consideration the merits and qualities of Marshal Don Ramon Maria Nar vaez Duke de Valencia, I nominate him President of my Council of Ministers. Given," etc. These two decrees are countersigned by M. Collado, the retiring Minister of Public Works ; all the others are countersigned by Narvaez. The Gazette also announces the resignation (already mentioned in telegraphic despatcheA) of General Ros de Olano, Echague, Dulce, and other functionaries, and appoints their successors, as already given. General Monsa de Z !mega had been appointed Under-Secretary of the War Department. The Madrid journals contain a good deal of the change of ministry, but nothing of interest beyond what was stated in the letters on the subject we have already published. The Epoca says :—" We have heard it said that Mar s hal O'Donnell, after devot ing a few days to the regulation of his private affairs, which he has lately neglected, will leave Madrid to make a short excursion in a foreign country. General Dulce has received permission to go to the province of Santander for the benefit of his health." The same journal mentions a report that the state of siege was about to be raised. Ac• cording to the Rojas Autografas, the new govern. ment has already deliberated whether the town dues and other indirect taxes shall be re-established ; the Hojas says that the question will probably be de cided in the affirmative, as the state of the treasury , requires the re-establishment. The creation of a spe cial ministry of commerce and the colonies was spo ken of, and it was considered likely that M. Gonzalez Bravo would be nominated to it. A despatch in the Gazette from the Captain-General of Seville announces that the Duchess of Montpensier, at 10 minutes past 9 on the evening of the Bth, happily gave birth to a robust prince. A letter from a semi-official source says : " Marshal Narvaez intends to govern constitu tionally ; it is therefore his intention to convoke the Cortes ; he will insist upon the elections being conducted • with the most scrupulous regard to legality, so that all political opinions may be freely represented • with a view to conciliation he proposes to unite all the fractions of the Conserva tive party, admitting likewise such conscientious progressists as are willing to recognise the present state of things. He will unhesitatingly solve all the pending questions so as to restore regularity to the administration of public affairs in a highly conservative sense. He will endeavour to make the taste for material interests predominate over that for politics, by favouring the develop ment of those interests, and of the sources of prosperity which Spain possesses. He will especially turn his attention to our colonies. It is said that the Government purposes to utilise the services of Generals Ros de Olano and Messina, two of O'Donnell's associates in the Vicalvarist in surrection. It has been reported that Marshal Narvaez has had grave dissensions with General Armero, and that in consequence the latter refused to form part of the new Cabinet ; but it was ob served at the palace ball that the two Generals conversed for a long time in the most amicable manner. Perfect tranquillity prevails at Madrid ; the Government has not even adopted the measures of precaution which are usually taken on similar occasions to the present." A letter from - Madrid of the 12th, published in somielavadedibteioennal much 1 - fleeted with the late change of Ministry the ,,T I Debate, ie ex-Ministers gives After some preliminary remarks, particularstn itaisieal p. es c at o :ti lne reproachedr.- with having placed a false construction on written by the EnnP ? , rorNapoleon to the Qu e en. M Her Majesty }vas greatly dispteased at their doing so, and expr esse d himself i,l the subj ec t. She s a id th a t her very Ministers t e rse hadterms right to communicate to their friends a letter which was a private one, but which her Majesty thought Proper to show to her council. Marshal Narvaez, arriving at Madrid at that time, was spoken to by the Queen on the subject, but with what result is not known. The projected duel between Marshal Narvaez and Don Jose Guel y Route, husband of the sister of the King, was stopped by the Queen her self, who wrote a letter with her own hand to the marshal, forbidding him peremptorily to expose a life so useful to the monarchy, and so necessary to herself. Marshal O'Donnell, on seeing the marked attention shown to Marshal Narvaez at the hall, complained of it to the Queen, and is said to have asked her whether it was he or Marshal Narvaez who was to preside at the council about to be held, adding that he noticed a great change in the feel ings of her Majesty towards him, and that he should talk with his colleagues on the subject, and let her Majesty know the result. The decision come to by the ministers was that they would give in their resignations en masse, unless her Majesty would consent to definitively renounce her project of suspending the execution of the law for selling the property of the church, state, and com munes. The Queen ultimately accepted a com promise, proposed by the Ministers, to the - effect that the sale of the church property should ti\h b i e eai a rr l s o h n a e l suspended._ In acting thus, her Majesty made a concession to her Ministers of her personal feelings, i a i c n e end sh e for she was in favour of the entire suspension of Ministers the law. The question thus remained open, and go consequencet I f d t l n ie o t te u _ the result was that a degree of uncertainty was added to the other embarrassments of the Treasury. to, w h a o s pin tl g ris to st t a i t l e us o s f ho u w nce t r o ta t i h n e ty in fluenceO'Donnell w i t and t h h e i s Queen, colleagues a h otpheed confidence put fide w public hich ad p I l i : L( 1 i : endtohtieni succeed resignations e e c r e n e . d ;T the t lis pQrwouocereeeend iniwn that the law should be allowed to tak e its course, course, demi and accepted." _ 1 Tho General Correspondence, in an extraordinary supplemBnt, sa y s : . 7 " Marsh a l O'D onnell's Minis try has resigned this day (12th) at two o'clock ! Why? We cannot answer the question to its fullest extent, but we are acquainted with some of the circumstances connected with that act. We can affirm that up to yesterday no differences had ever taken place between the Crown and the Ministry. Marshal O'Donnell was yesterday twice at the palace, and on the first occasion the Queen testified her desire to see the law for selling the church property completely put an end to. The Marshal, in consequence, assembled the Council of Ministers and informed them of the wishes c:f her Majesty, without concealing f rom t h em that perhaps they no longer enjoyed, as they had done some hours before, the confidence of the Queen. The Council deliberated for some time, and Marshal O'Donnell returned to the palace to inform the Queen of the resolution of the Council not entirely to refuse yielding to her 'Wishes ; but that they th oug h t i t i ndispensable to take time to examine the question and see whether it were possible to solve it agreeably to her Majesty's wishes. Marshal O'Donnell then left the palace, and imme diately after Marshal Narvaez, the Duke de Rivas, and MM. Nocedal and Moyano arrived there and were long in consultation with the Queen. This morning, at an early hour, Marshal O'Donnell received a message from the Queen, begging him to be at the palace at half-past one in the afternoon and to convoke the whole of the council there for two o'clock. After having exe cuted the orders of her Majesty, Marshal O'Donnell received from the mouth of the Queen the assur ane that she should never forget the services which he had rendered to the throne and to the cause of order, but that she thought it proper to confide the direction of affairs to other hands. Marshal O'Donnell and the whole of his colleagues respect fully tendered their resignations, at which her Majesty appeared much affected, but accepted them. Marshal Narvaez was then charged to form a Ministry, and has, wo understand, already suc ceeded in the mission confided to bins, the follow ing being the persons who have taken office." The list given is nearly the same as that already made known by telegraph. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING. The Emperor yesterday received Mehemed. Ali Pacha, member of the Gcand.

A letter from 'Vienna of the 11th, in the Dcbats, says : " Reports have been in circulation on the subject of a disagreement between M. de Bruck, the Minister of Finance, and the heads of the War and Naval depart. insists, and the difference is explained in this way :—On the conclusion of peace, the Emperor at the recommen dation of the Finance Minister, ordered considerable re ductions to be made in the army, by which the expenses of the State were so diminished that it was hoped that the expenditure, for the first tim© since 1848, might be brought to a level with the receipts. This result has again been prevented by the large sums demanded by the War Department for the comple tion of new fortifications on the Polish frontiers of Austria, which the Emperor has decided shall be com pleted by the end of 1857. Olcautz will still retain its rank of first central fortress of the empire ; Cracow for the North; Comorn for Hungary; and Verona for Italy. General Baron de Hess during the late war pointed out the danger to which the provinces of Gallicia and Mo ravia were exposed on the part of the Russian army of Poland ; and, according to his-orders, 30,000 men were for more than six months constantly employed in con structing fortifications round Cracow and Lemberg, in order to guard against any attack from the Russians. It has now been decided to prolong the line of fortified positions from Tchernovitz along the frontiers of Mol davia and Wallachia, and as far as Russian Volhynia. The outlay which will be caused by these works is said to have led to the discontent shown by the Finance Minister." THE MEDITERRANEAN. SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY NIGHT. By the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Colombo, Captain Cooper, with the India and Mediterranean mails, we have dates from Alexandria, Oct. 5 ; Malta, 9; Gibraltar, 13. She brings 19,0001. in specie, about 50 passengers, and a full cargo. The Pera, with the outward India, China, and Mediterranean mails, arrived a t Gib raltar on the 9th inst. On the 12th inst. there arrived at Gibraltar the British ship Golconda, from Constantinople and Malta, with troops and stores for England ; the British Commissariat Transport bark Olinda, Cap tain Robson, from Constantinople, with Govern ment stores for Gibraltar and Spithead. Her Majesty's steamer Coquette, Lieutenant Glynn, seven days from Portsmouth ; her Majesty's steamer Malacca, Captain Farquharson, from Ply mouth. Her Majesty's steam 'gunboat Vigilant started on the 12th for the Mediterranean, and the Coquette and the Malacca were both coaling pre paratory to proceeding in the same direction. THE WEST INDIA MAIL. SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY NIGHT. By the Royal Mail steamer Orinoco, with the mails from the West Indies and Pacific, we have dates from Jamaica, Sept. 27th ; Demerara and Trinidad, 25th; Barbadoes, 27th; and St. Thomas's, Oct. Ist. - _ The Orinoco brings 43 passengers, 10 naval in valids, and two distressed British subjects, 1,060,3531. in specie, and a cargo of cochineal, tobacco, and sundries. During the voyage the Orinoco experienced strong gales from the N.N.W., with intervals of moderate weather. On the 11 th inst., in lat. 42.26 N., long. 38.0 W., spoke the English barque Pre mier, of Bristol, from Demerara, bound for Lon don, having carried away some of her yards. Offers of assistance were made by the Orinoco, but they were declined. On the 14th inst., la lat. 46.29. N., long. 22.5 W., she passed the Bremen barque Augusta Melanie, from Quebec for London, the Barossa, homeward bound, and on the 16th spoke the Lady Shelburne and the American ship Mary Ogden. voyage the Orinoco encountered. rny the o outward a severe gale. In consequence of the absence of another ship, this mail packet conveyed her mails passengers, and cargo to Jamaica, at which' port she arrived on the 29th ult. There is little news from Jamaica. It was not known who was to he the successor of Sir Henry Barkly in the government of that colony, although it was confidently stated that Captain Darling would succeed to the appointment. Mer cantile matters were in a more prosperous condi tion than they had been for some time past ; the mines were every day presenting favourable aspects, and gave good hopes for the future. The island was generally healthy and in a state of universal tranquillity. Rains had been abun dant, and the ensuing crops were expected to be large. Exchange was quoted for hills at 60 days at per cent. prem.; merchants' bills, at 1 per cent. prem. The barque Cambrian, which left Kingston on the Ist of August for Liverpool, had been coin. pelled to put into Bermuda in consequence of severe fever on board, which had disabled the greater portion of the crew. At Barbadoes the weather continued showery, but the appearance of vegetation was cheering. The young cane crop had considerably improved, and potatoes and Indian corn continued abundant. The price of flour, in consequence of the non-arrival of American vessels, was high. A slight sickness prevailed ; but a supply of wholesome water had been intrAuced, vfhich would prove beneficial to the interests of the island. At Grenada the weather was favourable to the planter, but the Legislature being in recess there is no political news. Commerce was dull, and pro visions scarce and dear. At Demerara an opposition bad been mado by three members of the Court of Policy to the pass ing of the I migration Bill, but it was expected that it would'have no weight with her Majesty's Government. The able for the crops. weather Most of haos estateswarm e d r e f favour able ly occupied in cutting and grinding operations.tingfor c T a h it e o re , was a large number of vessels and freights were very low. Business had been unusually dull during the fortnight. Our news from the Pacific, with dates from Valparaiso to the 31st of August, and Callao to the 11th of September, contain nothing of spe ; cial interest. The Chilian Congress had been pro longed five days beyond the usual time. The treaty between Chili and Sardinia was approved, together with the budget for 1857, which amounts' to 6,336,069 dollars. The expenditure of the Government had rapidly increased during the last five years, arising from large grants made by the H o me Department for steamship and railroad lines, colonisation, and public works. Large sums had also been expended in public 'education. A subscription for the relief of the sufferers by the late inundations in France had been started at Santiago. A prOject had been presented to the Chamber of Deputies asking the interventi on o f Government in the Central American affairs, accompanying which is an energetic protest against the recogni tion of the Rivas-Walker Government by t be United States. In Peru there was every expt:ctation of another revolution. The minitg town of nualgalloc, containing 6,000 inhabita n t s , bad been burnt. At Bolivia peace had been established analmain tained by General Cirdova, who during Dine months had succeeded in quelling four revolutions. NEW ZEALAND. PLYMOUTH, OCT. 17. The I argue Prince of Wales, Captain M. Nolan, from Nei Zealand, arrived in the Sound this mornin g . She left Au c kl an d on the 14th of July , and is bound with Admiralty spars for Portsmouth for Driers. The disturbance between the two native tribes in Taranaki, New Plymouth, had subsided, and the colonists were under no personal apprehension but for fear that the weaker tribe might be driven into New Plymouth and a conflict ensue ther e ' Tile Government had sent 250 men belonging to the 58th and 65th Regiments to the district, where permanent barracks are to be erected.
