LONDON, FRIDAY, NOV. 8, 1861. The Federalists seem specially unfortunate in their attacks, and we can hardly wonder they are so slow to make the forward movement in the centre, when every attempt elsewhere is almost certainly followed by defeat. The affair at Ed ward's Ferry seems, in point of losses, to have been only second to the more disastrous one at Bull's Run. Rout, a deadly rout was the result; panic there was in the proper sense none, for the flight was from a danger but too real and pressing. One shudders indeed at the account of native Americans shooting down from the top of a bluff upon their brethren plunging into the strong current of the Potomac to escape from their deadly fire. In none of the encounters have the Cainite character of the war stood out more painfully than in this murderous attack and repulse. As usual the Federalists seem to have gone for ward in utter ignorance of what force was in the neighbourhood on the other side the river. Very singu lar is it in this war, how much better the Confederates seem to be aware of what is doing in the Federalist camp, what their numbers are and so forth, than vice versa. It is as if the inhabitants north of the Thames could not learn what was going on at Nor wood, with all the facilities of one language and of pre-existing friendly relations. It seems evi dent that the Marylanders so strongly sympathise with the rebels that the South can obtain all the information they need, while the North knows nothing South of the lines covered by its troops; even within range of their glasses, hills and woods effectually cover bodies of troops superior in num bers to their own. The South is evidently best served by voluntary scouts. The bait which induced the Federals to cross the river appears to have been the report, by a scouting party of their own, of a small Confede rate force on the other side the river which might be easily captured. It was thought that 300 men, with a reserve force of 100, might effect the cap ture. Even for this attempt the means of crossing tl e powerful stream were absurdly insufficient— utterly so should they have to recross in haste. They had only one boat, holding sixteen persons, and two holding four:or five each ; and that though a7canal close at hand could furnish all the boats required. The expected small body of Confede rates was not found, but while the Federals, who had crossed, were waiting orders, they were attacked, and fell back on the reserve party of 100. By two o'clock in the afternoon greater num bers of Federals crossed, Colonel BAKER taking the command, and his force numbering about 1,800 men. They had one rifled cannon and two mountain howitzers, all of which were lost in the engagement. But what strikes us most is the want of strategic skill. Thera was, we are told, no want of courage, unless it were on the part of some of those in command. The enemy had no artillery but muskets only, yet they so placed themselves, and the others were so placed, that old Brown Bess was a deadly weapon. The field was bordered on three sides by " thick woods,"and from these in front of the Federal lines— which therefore seems to have marched on a wood — a severe fire was opened. " The cannoniers and artillery horses attached to the field pieces were all shot down at this opening discharge, and the infantry suffered heavily. The guns managed to fire only about half a dozen rounds. Only occasional glimpses of the enemy were obtained, while the enemy's fire was directed, though only musketry, with fearful precision." " As each new line was formed the rebel volleys would seem to meet them and separate them, as if by lightning strokes, into broken and scattered groups." It was a " con centrated fire" from thick woods, rendering reta liation impossible. It reminds us of scenes north of the Potomac, in which WASHINGTON, when a loyal subject of GEORGE 111., was a sharer. At four o ' c l ock poor BARER was killed.

However, a ll was over. Organisation was abandoned. Each company acted All that could strip ape swim made b o at s o separately. fthei r bodies and oars of their hands, for neglect had not provided the means of courage or retreat. One of t he few boats sunk from over crowding; men drowiied themselves to get away from the fire of the Confederates who crowded the banks—the river was as full of human bodies as once the Scamander itself, and in this miserable way nearly half a little army of brave fellows perished. What confidence will Northern troops now have in their officers ; and what is an army but a mob without such confidence ? It is not wonderful that MCLELLAN holds back. What little reliance can he place in his subordinate ! The letter of the Emperor of AUSTRIA to the Minister whom he has entrusted with carrying out the Imperial Revolution in Hungary, is a studied insult to the nation. All Europe has witnessed and applauded the dignified, peaceful, and con sistent manner in which the Hungarians maintained their claims. Even those, if such there were, who thought them in the wrong, thought them in the right, so far as - their conduct as citizens was con cerned; The Italian duchies, after the flight of their petty despots, did not win for themselves more universal approbation than the Hungarians have done by their abstinence from anything bordering on violence. The whole of their offence, even in the Imperial eyes, can amount to no more than this, they refused to do acts which they held to be illegal. They did not resist, did not fight, did not shed blood, did not even assemble in overpowering numbers, they merely declined to do what they declared to be illegal. To a nation in this position the young HAPSBURG of the hour speaks thus in an autograph letter, one there fore showing his personal views and feelings : "The disloyalty of the Hungarian municipalities, and the resistance, bordering on insurrection, to the measures taken by the Government for the main tenance of public order, menace that order in a most dangerous manner, without the authorities being able to safely administer the penal law. The pub lic duty and the will of the EMPEROR requires that he should raise strong barriers against these ex cesses, and restore things to a state of order." Thus the advisers of his MAJESTY, so famed for their supposed ability, have managed to commit their Sovereign to war to the knife with Hungary. This preamble is indeed appropriate to the practi cal conclusion of the letter, but it is not needful for us to point out that the preamble itszlf is an un qualified lie. The preamble might truth fully have run as follows :—" Ever since 1849, the soldiers of the CZAR, and the treachery of the Hungarian leader GEORGT, hav ing placed the kingdom of Hungary at my feet, I have reigned there without Hungarian leave; I gave them a constitution and cancelled it ; I adminis tered everything directly as a military Sovereign, having suppressed all legal Government. After the battle of Solferino, I determined to govern Hungary not indeed legally, but somewhat more liberally. My liberality extended to making it a municipality instead of a kingdom. The Hungarians would not accept my gracious concessions—they denied that they were legal ; they required me to govern ac cording to the constitution which my ancestors, under the Pragmatic Sanction, the basis of my claim to the throne, acknowledged till 1848. Ido not choose to be a legal King, Ido not choose to have a legal diet ; I do not choose to levy taxes and levy soldiers legally. I reign over Hungary by the right divine of the sword of NICHOLAS, and of PASKIEWITCH ; I shall order what I please in Hun gary, Croatia, and Transylvania, and I will be obeyed, or I will shoot you—" Now, this would have been truthful, and not more than truthful ; a fit preamble to what follows, which runs thus—" All the existing authorities in the comitats, districts, and communes are abolished, and Count FORGA.CII is ordered to select persons to replace them, and to take care that the administra tion of public affairs in Hungary suffers no interrup tion. All persons charged with crimes against public order and safety shall be tried by military tribunals. In conclusion the EMPEROR expresses an earnest wish that he may soon be enabled, by the re-establishment of public order, to proceed to the solution of the pending differences, and in future maintain entire the concessions he has granted to Hungary." Even in the close of this, where his words look like good will, the insult is but prolonged. The weak-minded despot talks of his " concessions" to Hungary ; though they repudiate with scorn the idea of concessions. Their steady demand is, rights, not concessions. They acknowledge no power to concede in a man who is merely a political robber. _Restoration, indeed, they might accept, for by force of arms, by the bandits law, he holds in possession the powers which belong to the nation, but not the most illi terate Hungarian would hear of a " concession" from FRANCIS JOSEPH. A long dark future is now before Europe in regard to Austria. She will, if she can, persist in her old headstrong policy, trusting to the luck which has so often saved her in extremities. She will hazard all for dear despotism. She has a noble nation willing to be her powerful ally, under a personal union beneath the same crown ; she per sists in trying to enforce amalgamation. She might be strong by constitutional legality; she prefers to be weak by despotic lawlessness. She might govern with perfect ease through a Diet and regular authorities ; she supersedes them by a military governor, military officials, and courts martial. She might be encouraging the Hungarians in peaceful industry, and in a course to enrich her impoverished Exchequer ; she is arming to drive them to bloody rebellion, that she may have a pre tence to revel in executions and confiscations. But Hungary, we trust, will continue her hitherto well-advised course. Her day will come. We believe the Hungarians have made up their mind to this, and will disappoint their bloody-minded oppressor s . The Hungarians know that they are un armed ; and we fear they have not forgotten that a British ship took from Galatz the arms sent for them . Let them, however, but persevere. All will be done that Jesuit ingenuity can devise to torture and to harm them ; but a few years of suffering, how ever galling, will vex their despot Ruler far more than insurrection could do. They have already the sympathy of all free Europe, and we begin to hope that even Lord JOHN RUSSELL and the Tories them selves will give np their pet. They must see that a strong Austria is now an absurdity. A free Hungary is the only strong kingdom possible in South-Eastern Europe, "Nil Darpan"—we have for a long while past learnt, through the overland mail—has been driv ing her MAJESTY'S lieges in India nearly crazy with delight. Nil rarpan ! And what in the name of Fortune is NIL DARPAN ? A humourist has but just now asked very facetiously—" Is it a place or a person, or something to eat ?" Just as in "Hard Times," it may be remembered by the admirers of Mrs. SPARSIT, whenever that remark able female spoke of herself as " a Powler," people were in the habit of wondering whether it was a creed, or a l ocal i ty, or a professi3n But_.'

It proves to be in no way an alias for Back sheesit—that more than merely Asiatic incentive to a show of enthusiasm at all times, under all circum stances, and at the very shortest notice ! It proves, in fine, to be in no way a delicate synonym for that amiable little peculiarity incidental to marriage in the far East, that affecting little conjugal weak ness, that touching little posthumous marital en dearment, known as the Suttee! Nothing of all this is—" Nil Darpan," Nil Darpan being in effect —simply—just in half-a-dozen words—The Colleen Baton of India ! It is nothing more nor less in reality, this won derful source of delight to our Asiatic fellow subjects, it is nothing more nor ,less than a highly successful Bengali Drama !" A " sensation" play, in we don't know how many acts—meaning by its title Nil Darpan (it must be a marvellously com pact tongue that Bengalee language !) The Mirror of Indigo Planting! And just as the " Colleen Bawn," at the Adelphi, has been drawing crowded houses almost nightly for months past—" Nil Dar pan" has been driving the playgoers of Calcutta all but distracted with a long-sustained sense of pro foundest admiration. Its attractiveness, in truth, would almost seem to hint that, as a sensation drama, it must be distinguished, not by one "header," but by a series of headers : and that, more truly than EILY O'CONNOR herself, the heroine of the Indian " Colleen Bawn" must be par excellence THE Diving Belle ! Alluding to this much-talked of play,' the new Overland Organ alike of England and India—that very smartly-written but somewhat spiteful Lite raryßudget, published by Messrs. SAUNDERS, OTLEY and Ca., observes, in its very First Number, the in augurative number but just issued from the press (p. 24)—" Its real author [that is the author of Nil Darpan] has only to discover himself to be famous. Kalidasd may have been once read more, and native plays have come nearer nature, but the Mirror of Indigo' will be remembered when ' Sakoontala' is forgotten." Certainly, words of praise, enough in themselves to pique the curiosity of the mast utterly blasé andthe most imperturbably phlegmatic. Yet—does any one feel really solicitous, after all this, to examine into the merits and peculiarities of this amazing politico-dramatic " hit" at Calcutta P Fortunately for him, his eager inquiries may be satisfied to the full without any necessity for his undergoing the prolonged agony of actually wit nessing its representation: In the current number of Mr. DICKENS'S All the Year Round (No. 133, pp. 158-164) within the compass of less than seven of those familiar doable-columned pages, now lurid with the mystic wonders of the Strange Story related from week to week by Sir BULWER LYTTON—those who list can, in about a quarter of an hoar or twenty minutes, know all that any sane Englishman would even care to know about this preposterous effusion of Bengalee genius. There are tortures that we mast all of us, some time or another, go through, whether we will or no. And we suppose this is one of them ! And as Mr. THACKERAY says in his last instalment of " Philip" in the new number of the Cornhill Magazine —as Mr. THACKERAY writes there in his absurdly droll way—" If any of our people are going to suffer, let the pain be soon over." Our whimsical humourist continuing thus—" Sit down in this chair, Made moiselle, if you please, and you, Monsieur, in this. Allow me to examine you; just open your mouth, if you please ; and—oh, oh, my dear miss—there it is out ! A little eau-de-Cologne and water, my dear. And now, Monsieur, if yon please, we will—what fangs! what a big one ! Two guineas. Thank you. Good morning. Come to me once a-year. John, show in the next party." Instead of two guineas, here, however, it is but twopence: for the which, through the brief but salutary anguish of the operation involved in mastering the synopsis of this dreadful little Bengali drama in the last number of All the Fear Round, any one and every one who cares to do so, may know all about that same porten tons Asiatic enigma 'yeleped "Nil Darpan !" Perhaps there never was anything sillier that could drive a whole people crazy with excite ment than this same stupendous piece of absur dity. And we avow as much with a vivid recol lection the while that American patriotism has been roused to enthusiasm before now by the ludicrous strains of " Yankee Doodle," and that in our own country it was almost treasonable at one time for a liege servant of the Crown to whistle as Uncle TOBY loved so often to whistle (as one may say sotto voce), the arrant nonsense of that famous refrain of no-meaning— " Lero-lero I Lillibullero I Lillibullero I Bullen-alla I" So has it been now for months past over yonder in India with this dull piece of politico-dramatic no-meaning called " Nil Darpan," or " The Mirror of Indigo Planting." The incident of its popu larity, however, the circumstances of the extrava gance and prolongation of that popularity, cannot rightly looked at c i i r d o en n t ly and those circum _bustubgegeustsievfeubasafttherataliln, stances are of the character of the race over which her Britannic MAJESTY has but so very recently eand, With the reins,the respon sibiri t ass umed theo of Government.rin s , THE lIIIPERIAZ THIMBLERIG OR, " UNDER WHICH HAT IS TIIE ROMAN PEI 2" (From .Punch.)

The date is not given, LYCEUM THEATRE. Last evening the benefit of Mr. Edmund Falconer, the lessee of the theatre, and the accom plished author of " Woman, or Love against the World," took place, under favourable auspices. His successful comedy, which has reached the 70th representation, formed the first part of the enter tainment, and went off with its usual eclat, several bouquets being thrown to the heroine at the con clusion: The most novel feature in the programme was the recital of an original ballad, by Mr. Falconer himself, entitled "Anne Hathaway," and suggested by a recent visit to Stratford-upon-Avon. It was a very pleasing poem, and somewhat original in its design, since so little is known of Anne Hathaway that she has seldom been the subject of song or romance. Mr. Falconer introduces her to us as the stout yeoman's daughter, holding herself above the village folk, rejecting the addresses of a neighbouring farmer, and announcing her intention of marrying an esquire. He then leads us through successive scenes of their simple life, pleasantly told, to the day, fortunate for posterity, which drove Shakspeare to London and sent Anne Hatha way and her little ones back to the shelter of her father's house, where she remained during long years, not always a welcome guest, and hearing the villagers say, " That more nice than wise had been Anne Hathaway." But presently gold and rich gifts began to come from London, puzzling poor Anne, who understood herds and crops, but could not understand how fine words made money. And rumours of success and great friends went through the village, till the gossips said at last that the Queen herself was jealous of the yeoman's daughter. And at last one evening when she is standing sadly at the door looking at a fallen apple, and recalling the days when Willie used to come across the fields to beg some, a stranger, in velvet doublet and silken hose, draws near, and she sees Shakspeare once again. He buys the largest house in the town, then called" The House," with adjoining lands, still proving kind and true to his humble wife, as in the days when he wooed her under the May trees. And thus, say the last lines of the poem— "Although this proud title his fame crowns to-day, Sho married an esquire, did Anne Hathaway," This graceful ballad was listened to throughout with deep attention, and was warmly applauded at the conclusion. The performance terminated with John Oxenford's farce " Gone to Texas." Prince Leopold arrived on Tuesday evening at the British Embassy, at Paris, from England, and left on Wednesday morning for the south of France. NEW LIGHTHOUSE FOR THE WELSH COAST...—. At the meeting of the Mersey Dock Board yesterday, it was decided to lease a site on the great Ormshead for a new lighthouse. The cost of the lighthouse is estimated at £5OO, and the annual expense of maintenance £3BO. THE REPRESENTATION OF LINCOLN.—Mr. Brain ley-Moore has retired, and Mr. Charles Seeley, an advanced Liberal, will, on Saturday, be returned without opposition. REPRESENTATION OF BIRKENHEAD.—M". John Laird, the well-known shipbuilder of Birkenhead, who is the Conservative candidate for the new borough of Birken head, has recently seceded from the firm of which he has for many years been the head. The cause of this proceed ing lies in the fact that Mr. Laird's firm was successful in tendering for the construction of one of the monster iron vessels of war, and in consequence Mr. Laird could not enter Parliament as an interested party in such contracts. THE PRINCE CONSORT AND THE EDINBURGH POST-OFFICE AND MUSEUM.—We (North British Mail) understand that the Duke of Atholl, as Grand Master Mason of Scotland, lodged a protest with the Prince Con sort against his laying the foundation stones of the Pcst office and Industrial Museum, on the ground that it was the province of the Grand Master Mason to perform that cere mony in the case of all public buildings. The duke, we believe, handed the protest to the Prince Consort at the sta tion in Perth, when his royal highness came through to Edinburgh to perform the ceremony. The colonial wool sales commencing to-day com prised 2,349 bales, of which 859 wore from the Cape and 1,490 from Australia. There was a fair attendance of buyers, both home and foreign, but the biddings were languid, and previous prices were barely maintained. ANOTHER CHURCH-RATE SEIZURE.—On Tuesday (writes Mr. Atkins, of Orpington, Kent) a seizure for church-rates was effected at my dwelling-house, and a table, clock, and picture carried off. The articles now lie at the "Black Boy," St. Mary Cray, to be sold on Monday. I suppose that there will be proceedings taken against some other parties in this village, who with myself refuse to ac knowledge .the right of the Established Church to tax us for the support of her worship. The present is the first church. rate seizure that has been made in this neighbour hood, and I believe it is the beginning of a struggle be tween the compulsory and voluntary systems here. ARRIVAL OF MR. ROBERT MUIR IN LIVERPOOL —Mr.Robert Muir, who, it may be remembered, was taken into custody in New York, as he was about to proceed to Europe on board the Royal mail steamship Africa, he being at the time the bearer of despatches from the British Consul at New Orleans to Earl Russell, arrived in Liverpool on Wednesday, as a passenger by the Montreal Ocean Steam ship Company's steamer North American. On his being taken into custody by the New York authorities Mr. Muir was sent to Fort Lafayette, where he was confined for a considerable time, but has been liberated on his parole. THE GREAT EASTERN.—A memorial from the Liverpool pilots was presented to the Mersey Dock Board yesterday, praying for the removal of the moorings of the Great Eastern, on the ground that they offered an obstruc tion to vessels anchoring in the river. Mr. Rees, one of the members, stated that the Great Eastern was next month coming to Liverpool from Milford-haven to get ready for sailing in February, and that the moorings, therefore, could not be dispensed with. A FRENCH LOAN.—A letter dated Paris yester day, says :—The Chambers will open on the 15th of January, the Senate, however, meeting previously. Again a loan to a large amount is confidently spoken of, with a new impost to defray the interest. The last budget, 1 think, was made to show a surplus, and people ask how does it happen that, in time of peace, and with flourishing finances, another large loan is necessary ? The accounts from America regarding the oil springs on the line of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway in Northern Pennsylvania tend to show that the supply is virtually inexhaustible. One agent writes that he would have no difficulty in procuring 20,000 barrels per month at a price equivalent to Bs. per barrel, or about five pence per gallon, and that he could probably get double that quantity. The present estimate of the product of the region seems to be about half a million of barrels per annum. ARRIVAL OF THE WARRIOR AT QUEENSTOWN.— The Queenstown correspondent of the Freeman's Journal, writing on Wednesday, says :—" This famous ironclad fri gate arrived here last evening, in company with the Re venge, 91 guns, after a cruise of six days from Portsmouth. The Warrior, so often described, and so well known in all particulars, has now proved herself a magnificent success so far as could be desired. During the late run her average on several days was, even while running in a rough sea, but under full canvas, besides being propelled by her screw, 17 knots an hour, a rate of speed unequalled by any vessel afloat save those of the Dublin and Holyhead Company's boats. Her trip, which was intended to be to Berehaven, has given complete satisfaction to the officers on board, amongst whom was Captain Drummond, R.N., of the Ad miralty Board. Only two circumstances connected with the trip occurred of a nature not to be desired. On enter ing the harbour she was by no means obedient to the helm, which would answer only to the starboard ; another matter was, that on Tuesday morning, before daybreak, the lights of the Revenge being undiscernible, the huge iron vessel went within a hair's breadth' of cutting down her com panion, who was saved from instant destruction only by an instantaneous alteration of the Warrior's course ; the lat ter, circumstance, however, says nothing, of course, to the discredit of this noble invention. It is said she will remain here some days, under the coxaniand of Rear-Admiral Smart, of the Revenge, who is in charge of the squadron; and already the Warrior has drawn immense crowds, but none are allowed on board. She lies anchored in the man of-war roadstead." MR. AND MRS. ST. LEGER.—The London friends of these artists will be interested to read the paragragh here quoted below from a recent number of the Dublin Evening Packet :—" Mr. H. St. Leger, a well-known musical amateur, yesterday invited several eminent pro fessors, and distinguished lovers of music, to hear some modern and classical pianoforte works and new songs, in one of the saloons of Bussell's pianoforte warerooms. Among those who performed, Miss Flynn and Mr. Theo dore Logier claim special notice. On playing the fine duet, composed by Moscheles, on two grand pianos, called 'Homage to Handel,' the applause was so great that they were obliged to repeat the piece, which they did with (if possible) increased effect. Miss Flynn then charmed her audience with several solos by Chopin, Mendelssohn, Gottschalk, Mayer, &c., which she performed with exqui site taste and brilliant execution. Mrs. Lumsden and several distinguished amateurs then sang some of Mr. and Mrs. St. Leger's now songs, including " The Angtl Mother," " You Still may Trust in Me," and " Somebody is Waiting fcr me." We were much pleased with the two songs composed by Mrs. St. Leger for the occasion, called " The Colleen Bawn," and "Dew is Gemming Flower and Spray." The matinee was concluded by Mr. Theodore Logier performing several solos on the piano by Chopin, Liszt, &c. We were particularly struck with " Rigoletto" by the last-mentioned celebrated performer and composer, and a prayer and march composed by Mrs. St. Leger e x .. preealy for the band of the 60th Rifles. LATEST NEWS. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.I VIENNA, Nov. 8. Count Nadasdy, the ex-Minister of Justice, has been appointed Minister, without portfolio, and Aulic-Chancellor for Transylvania. Tranquillity prevails at Pesth. VIENNA, Nov. 7. An autograph letter, addressed by the Emperor to Count Forgaeh, Aulic Chancellor for Hungary, has been published to-day. The following is a summary of its contents : The disloyalty of the Hungarian municipalities, and the resistance bordering on insurrection to the measures taken by the Government for the maintenance of public order, menace that order in a most dangerous manner, without the authorities being able to safely administer the penal law. The public duty and the will of the Emperor requires that he should raise strong barriers against these excesses, and restore things to a state of order. As the convocation of the Hungarian Diet in a constitutional manner appears impracticable until order is re-established, all the existing authorities in the comitats, districts, and communes are abolished, and Count Forgach is ordered to select persons to replace them, and to take care that the administration of public affairs in Hungary suffers no interruption. All persons charged with crimes against public order and safety shall be tried by military tribunals. In conclusion, the Emperor expresses an earnest wish that he may soon be enabled, by the re-esta blishment of public order, to proceed to the solution of the pending differences, and in future maintain entire the concessions he has granted to Hungary. TURIN, Nov. 7. The Monarchic Nazionale of to-day says : " General Turr has announced to the Central Committee, in the name of Garibaldi, that it is the firm intention of the latter not to provoke any movement in favour of Rome and Venice, and that his sole wish is that every means may be employed to promote the armament of the nation. Garibaldi also recommends concord among all classes of the Italian people, in order to accomplish the unifica tion of Italy under Victor Emmanuel, and requests those who do not accept this determination to leave the committee and act on their own responsibility." BERNE, Nov. 7. M. Thouvenel has informed M. Kern, Swiss ambassador at Paris, that France will not pre- judice the solution of the question of the Valley of the Dhappes by any act of violence, but demands a definitive arrangement by means of negotiation. PARIS, Nov. 7. The Temps of this evening says :—" It is asserted that M. Fould will shortly return to the Ministry of Finance." INDIA AND AUSTRALIA. BY TELEGRAPH DIRECT FROM ALEXANDRIA.

ITALY. General La Alarmora has addressed the following proclamation to the Neapolitans on assuming his functions ; " Citizens of the Province of Naples—His Ma jesty, in entrusting to me the command of the sixth military department, has been pleased to appoint me at the same time to the post of Civil Prefect of the Province of Naples. Although these new duties are but provisional, I feel all their difficulty, which in my case perhaps is the greater because of my not having taken any direct part in those wonderful events accomplished in these provinces in little more than a year, and because I succeed to the illustrious General Cialdini, who has deserved such sympathy at your hands. But as I am equally sensible of obedience, I rely upon the co-operation of others more than upon my own attitude. I therefore ad dress myself to the authorities, and request them to aid me with the same zeal as they did my predeces sors. I address myself to the National Guard, whose generous conduct on every occasion has been de servedly praised here and admired abroad. I lastly appeal to all those who feel that the love of country it; the first of all duties ; and with the co-operation of all I hope to be able to fulfil our Sovereign's in tentions and the orders of his Government. Citizens of the Province of Naples !—The pious and secular wish of the greatest Italians, the fulfilment of which appeared but a dream but a few years ago, is in a great measure satisfied. Its total accomplishment lies in the sacrifices which we still have to make, and especially in our faith and concord. I come to you with few claims to your benevolence, but with the :firm resolve to do what I can to contribute towards the great work of making Italy One, Inde pendent, Free, and Prosperous. " ALFONSO LA MARMORA, " Prefect of the Province of Naples, and General of the Army " Naples, Nov. 1, 1861." BELGIUM. The Belgian Moniteur publishes a Royal decree, appointing M. Henri Solvins Envoy-Extraordinary and Minister-Plenipotentiary to the Court of Turin. M. Solvins was formerly the Belgian Represen tative at Lisbon. The Constitutionnel makes the following obser vations upon the appointment :-- "By a decree which is dated November sth, H.M. the King of the Belgians has appointed M. Henri Solvins his Envoy-Extraordinary and Minister-Plenipotentiary To the Court of Turin !' The Brussels journals look upon this appointment as a, formal recognition of the Kingdom of Italy. We are happy to believe them, but how comes it the Royal decree does not say, To his Majesty the King of Italy instead of To the Court of Turin,' which would then have obviated any doubt on the subject? This nuance is worth notice, for unless the new Minister's credentials fully explain his position he will be precisely in the same situation as the Prussian envoy who is accredited to the Court of Turin, although Prussia has not yet recognized the Kingdom of Italy. FRANCE. M. de Jaucourt, Secretary of Embassy at London, and recently appointed private secretary to Count de Persigny, is replaced in London by the Marquis de Cantades. ww e have reason to know," says the Patric, "that the ordinary session of the Senate and of the Legislative Body will open on Jan. 15. In anticipation of that event all the ministries are actively engaged in drawing up the bills which are to be presented to the Chambers during the Semion. The Budget of 1863 has been already laid before the Council of State. " Several foreign journals," says the Pays, "in speaking of a distinction of which General de Govon is to be the object, have given incorrect details. The official denomination hitherto attri buted to the General is that of Commandant of the divisions of occupation at Rome.' That title is to be changed to that of ' General Commander in-Chief of the Corps of occupation at Rome.' That alteration changes his situation, inasmuch as it places him on the same line as Geneial* who have the chief command of corps cl'armee, and it will moreover secure to him the benefits of the law of Aug. 4, 1839, which enables general officers of that category to put forward claims for the dignity of Marshal."

The Chamber of Deputies of the Reichsrath resumed its sittings at Vienna on the 4th inst. M. Plener, the Minister of Justice, presented, in the name of the Cabinet, explanations respecting the Imperial patent of the 12th October last, ordering the levy of the direct taxes of 1862. The Cabinet declares its respect for the Constitution and for the prerogatives of the Chamber; by ordering the levy of the taxes it simply obeyed the law of necessity, as the Reichsrath had not the necessary powers to vote the budget. The Government had acted in a perfectly constitutional manner, as it only decreed the levy of existing taxes which came_ within its sphere, the real powers of the Reichsrath in finan cial matters being confined, according to the 2d paragraph of the 10th clause, to the right of voting a modification in taxes already existing. THE aIEXICAN _EXPEDITION. "The following," says the Pattie, "are said to be the principal clauses of the convention entered into relative to the affairs of Mexico :—The three Powers are entitled to have an equal naval force; the number of troops will be in proportion to the sub jects which each Power may have in Mexico, and in that respect Spain stands first. The troops are to occupy Vera Cruz and the other towns on the coasts where custom-houses are established. If, after a stipulated delay, the Government of President Jaurez has not paid the sums which he owes, the expedition will march on the capital, and if that measure should lead to unforeseen complications, an understanding will be come to in common as to the course to be pursued." The Debats gives the fol lowing additional details:—" The convention con sists, it is said, of only five or six articles. The first stipulates the common action of the three Powers, and the others regulate the mode of intervention, and declare that the naval force of each Power shall be the same, but that two-thirds of the land forces shall be Spanish troops from Cuba, The united forces, after occupying Vera Cruz, and all other places on the coast which they may think suitable, are to address their demands to the constituted au • thorities of Mexico. If those demands are granted the chiefs of the different corps are to submit the convention which will have to be drawn up to their Governments for ratification, and in the meantime will remain in the places taken. The occupation is to be made in the name of the three Powers, what ever may be the number of the occupying force. Immediately on their arrival, the expeditionary forces are to endeavour to impose a suspension of arms on the belligerent parties in Mexico. The three Powers undertake not to occupy permanentiy any part of the territory of Mexico, and not to ob tain any exclusive advantage in that country. They also undertake to leave Mexico entirely free to choose her own form of Government. England has renounced the stipulation which she wished to have inserted in the treaty to the effect that the three nations should bind themselves not to accept the throne of Mexico for any of the Princes of their reigning families. If, however, the monarchical form should prevail, the three Powers undertake not to employ their intervention for the advantage of any prince in particular." A letter from Brest states that Colonel Hennique, of the Marines, is appointed to command the expeditionary corps to Mexico, with Lieutenant-Colonel Charvet under him. The Marines will consist of two battalions, under M. d'Arbaud and M. Campion. The Artillery will consist of a battery of 4-pounder rifled guns: The officers and soldiers are to be taken from Mar tinique and the guns from France. All who are to take part in this expedition are ready to embark immediately. PREPARATIONS FOR AN EXPEDITION FROM GENOA. The Nord, of yesterday, has the following letter from Genoa, dated the 30th ult.:— " For the last five or six weeks our city has been a veritable tower of Babel. We hear all sorts of languages, and meet the most oddly-contrasted figures. Magyars, Poles, Serbs, Croat, Dalmatians, and even Montenegrins amuse the Genoese by their Dialects and the odd cut of their clothes. More over, not the least numerous are Austrian deserters in uniform. All this pell-mell of nationalities, so confused in appearance, is in reality disciplined and organised by the care of Kossuth, Klapka, Mieroslawski, and Bixio, who are very active here. " The journals have already announced that Garibaldi intends to try a new expedition in Monte negro, that is to say, to send there a Sclave legion, under the command of Louis Mieroslawski. Ia truth, this plan is here one of public notoriety— everybody speaks of it. One has only to visit cer tain cafes or restaurants, frequented by the staff of the Sclave legion, to hear—provided he understands the Sclave language—things truly surprising, and details so precise as to leave no doubt. You may, then, consider the following communication as positive :—Mieroslawski has received from Gari baldi authority to form a Sclave Legion, co mposed of Poles, Bohemians, Sclavonians, Serbs, Cro ats, Dalmatians, and Montenegrins. At the p resen t moment there are at Genoa more than 200 Poles belonging to the ' young e migration,' which Mieros lawski has brought together from Paris, N a pl es , and Turin. Another hundred is composed of the different Sclave tribes before mentioned ; and then there are from 100 to 150 Magyars, who are placed under the special direction of MM. Kossuth and Klapka. Certain political even tualities are awaited b e f ore pu tti ng the project in execution. In the event of affairs in Hungary taking a decisive turn, or of the con test of the M ontenegrins making progress an d pro voking national manifestations on the part of the Serbs and oth er T urco -S c l ave peop l es , th e expedi tion will leave immediately. It is generally believed that the point of dis-embarkation will be between Spiza and Breano—small ports a short distance from Antivari and Ragusa. They will proceed from the first point towards Trebigne End Klobuk to aid the Montenegrin insurgents encamped between Korianic and Niksik, where they have had several victorious combats with the Turks. Should the Montenegrins experience some defeats before the disembarkation of the expedition, the latter will select for its line of operations the route be tween Antivari and Niegusi and Cettigue, a move ment which will allow the Sclave legion to reinforce the Montenegrins by the shortest road. They will then cross the frontiers of Montenegro to spread the movement, with the aid o f the Serbo-Wal Sclave provinces of lachian government, in all the gary and Gallicia." Turkey, and thence to Hun THE P RIVATE ERS lIMPTER.—The Brazil Mail steamer Tyne, which has just arrived home, brought word that the Confederate privateer Sumpter had put into Ma ranham, in Brazil, for coal and provisions, all o f w hi c h h a d been provided b y the inhabitants with alacrity. After the officers and crew had been feted by the Maranhamese, the Sumter left, and within 37 hours afterwards the Federal ,man-of-war rowhattalt put into Manama in search of her.
