Very little business has been doing, and beyond the present dullness there is no feature of moment to notice. Consols for money and account are quoted 931- to The Funds closed at the following prices : 931 931 1 4pm 228 30 Consols Money . „ Account . Exchequer Bills . Bank Stock . . . Three per Cents. . Next Account . The following appeared in our later editions of Saturday : The funds remain without any new feature of interest. The market was tolerably firm, and closed at yesterday's prices. The market for British railway stocks was again decidedly stronger. In the discount market there was a rather more active demand for money, but best bills were taken k and per cent. below the Bank rate. Business at the Bank was rather slack.—Daily News. The English funds have again been well maintained, although the accounts from Paris are dull, and there has beeu a withdrawal of gold from the Bank. The supply of money was the sole cause of steadiness of prices, the regular rate for the best bills in the discount market being as low as 3 1 , while in the Stock Exchange loans for short periods are offered at 2 per cent. In the foreign exchanges this afternoon there was no alteration of importance from the rates of last post. About £20,000 in bar gold was taken from the Bank for exportation. —Times. The LONDON RAILWAY SHARE MARKET to-day was firm in character, and some of the leading stocks again advanced in price, but the amount of business done was unimportant.

The LONDON MINING MARKET to-day remained quiet. The transactions were chiefly confined to shares in Rosewarne United, East Wheal Russell, Lady Bertha, Sortridge Consols, and East Basset. Prices were generally unaltered. The shares of the Dun Mountain Copper Mining Company were dealt in at par, and Worthing Mining at dis. Foreign descriptions were quiet.

The convention by the Great Powers on the subject of French intervention in Syria is to be signed to-day. Its terms have not yet been made public ; but it is to be hoped that they are such as afford sufficient guarantee for the retirement of the French force, so soon as its purpose shell have been accomplished, in the restoration of tranquillity. Garibaldi has been mysteriously missing since the 18th ; but intelligence is hourly expected of his landing on some part of the Neapolitan coast. At present, it is scarcely possible to conjecture his manceuvres. The battle at Milazzo, from the latest accounts, seems to have been a most sanguinary affair ; the Neapolitans having upwards of 1,200 killed, the Garibaldians 780 — an amount of loss which, considering be ferces engaged, appears'utterly incredible. • The latest accounts from the kingdom of Naples pro per bring intelligence of an insurrection in a town called Avellino, against the Bourbons ; and of a collision between the people and the soldiery. Prussia has sent a ship of war to Beyrout, and also several transport vessels to Naples—the latter being intended for the reception of subjects of that monarchy in case of any violent change in the already threaten ing aspect of affairp. The Teiriesrar Gazette says :—The reiterated attempts which have been made to excite insurrection in Bosnia have failed. Some hundreds of Servians had crossed the Drina, but were repulsed by a Turkish detachment, and had several killed. On the return of this band into Servia they were disarmed and taken under escort to Belgrade. Some conflicts have also taken place at Colaclain and Gasko, in Montenegro. Some of the regular soldiers of tle garrison of Belgrade had deserted, but were arrested by the peasen4 in the country, and delivered up to the commander of the fortress. The smoke of the guns at Berlin announcing the birth of the Prince and Princess Frederic William had scarcely cleared away when another salute of thirty - six CY,As proclaimed to the inhabitants of Berlin that another princes 3 was born—the Princess Frederic Charles having givn birth to e. daughter.

The failure of the Atlantic cable, has given birth to several now projects, and whilst a company in this country is having soundings taken for a route by way Greenland, a different project has been engaging the attention of parties in America. Mr. Collins' recent mission to St. Petersburg was to procure the sanction and co-operation of the Imperial Government in the construction of telegraphic communication between Russia and the United States, via. Asiatic Russia, crossing to America by or near Behring Straits, to or by the Alintian. Islands. The Russian Government has already authorised upon this line the construction of seven thousand miles of telegraph, from Kazenthe, the eastern termination of telegraphic communication in European Russia, to their military and naval establish ments at the mouth of the Amoor river. The govern ment could not agree to construct a line of telegraph beyond the point named at present, but have authorised Mr. Collins to survey a route from the mouth of the Amoor, over the Russian possessions in Asia aad America, a distance of about thirty-five hundred miles, on the proposed route to San Francisco, the whole dis tance being about five thousand miles. The plan is m doubtedly feasible, for the line from the mouth of the Amoor to California, via Behring Straits, will require but a single cable, and that not longer than sixty mills. An important question is pending in France at the present moment, touching the validity of a large bequest in land and money, by the Marquis de Villette to the Count de Chambord. Some interesting particulars respecting the suit are given in the letter of our Pans correspondent. Louis Napoleon has the reputation of interesting him self very much in the press of this country, and he has here and there a solitary defender. A country paper in Ireland has secured his special approbation, and this in a significant way. The following letter appears in Saturday's issue of the Tipperary Examiner, the editor of which has repeatedly declared his dissent from the charges of enmity to the Pope, which were made by many of the Irish Catholic journals against Napoleon 111. The letter is introduced at cot siderable length by the editor, who gives it as a complete justification of his own 'views of the French policy in Rome. Following is the translation :—" Tie Emperor's Cabinet, Palace of St. Cloud, July 6th, 186)• Sir,—When, In a country, the press passionately persists in forgetting itself, in order to calumniate and mis represent the intentions of a foreign sovereign, nothing can be more pleasing or even more consoling than for a clever and disinterested writer to rise up sponta neously to defend him. You, sir, have been that writer ; you have had the singular merit ; and in resisting the general overwhelming impulse to oppose a conscientious judgment to false interpretation, and a calm voice to the clamours of malevolence, thus success has gradually crowned your efforts, and if the error be not totally `destroyed it is at least *eady much enfeebled; so mach power does truth bestow on -him whom she animates with her inspirations. I have, then, with real satisfac-. tion, submitted various articles published in. your esteemed journal to the Emperor, and his Majesty entertains for them the sense of gratitude the sincere expression of which he charges to address to Accept, sir, assurance of my most distinguished con sideration,—The Emp e ror's Secretary, chief of the. l Cabinet, MOCQUARII. A. W. ,llarnett, Esq., proprietor and editor of the Limerick, ,Tipperary, and Waterford Examiner, Clonmel, Ireland." A Parliamentary return was issued on Saturday, giving statistical information with reference to the reformatory schools of the United Kingdom. The total number of reformatories in England is 47, of which 4 are for Catholics. The 43 Protestant institutions have accom modation for 2,162 boys and 367 girls. The 4 for Catholics can receive .586 boys and 200 girls. The actual number of inmates is of course less than the pos sible number. The Protestant buildings at present contain 1,634 boys and 552 girls ; those for Catholics 485 boys and 161 girls. The total number of reforma tories in Scotland is 27, capable of accommodating 800 boys and 314 girls. The nine reformatory institutions in Ireland have accommodation for 330 boys and 195 girls. The actual numbers occupying them are 189 boys and 78 girls. According to the Army and Navy Gazette, the umber of new regiments of the line to be added to the army, in consequence of the extinction of the local European force in India, will be nine altogether, of which three will be cavalry, and six infantry. In these regiments promotion will not be regulated by the purchase system in operation in the rest of the line. The diagrams prepared by the registrar and his assistants for the year 1858, disclose, as usual, some curious facts. For instance it appears that in the year 1858, three girls of 15 were married to youths of 18 ; one of 16 was married to a boy of 17 ; a yoing woman of 19 was wedded to a lad of 16 ; 12 girls of the age 1.5 were married to men of 21; in all, 1€ of the wives were only 15 years of age. One hund-ed and ninety-four were 16 years ; 1016 were 17. The ige at which the greatest number of women marry is 20. A greater number marry at 30 than at 19 ; indeed, more marry at 30 than at 25 or 21 or 18. Five venerable old dames of 75, all of them widows, found husbands, one catching an active bachelor of 55. A girl of 17 was " sacrificed " to a man of 62; and another young creature of 20 to an old fellow of 75. Three men at the age of 80 were married to women of 50. A spinster of 70 was wedded to a bachelor of 65 ; but the large majority of the women who marry at that period of life of course are widows. The CoMmissioners of the Great Exhibition of 1851 have, aftep maturely considering the proposals for hold ing an exhibition in 1862, offered to let to the pro moters 16i acres of the land at Kensington Gore, for the purpose of erecting upon it the required buildings. They stipulate that certain portions of the exhibition buildings shall be of a permanent character, and that a sum of £lO,OOO shall be paid to them out of the profits of the undertaking, to be appropriated for future exhi bitions. The guarantee fund now exceeds £340,000, and it is made up of guarantors who have put down their names for sums varying from £lOO to £lO,OOO. Another Cabinet Council was held on Saturday, which was attended by nearly all the Ministers, and Lord Palmerston went by invitation in the evening to dine with the Queen. The recent increase in the spirit duties by the Chancellor of the Excheouer. has, as might be expected, excited no little hostility towards him on the part of the licensed victuallers of the metropolis. They charge the right hon. gentleman with a direct intention to ruin their trade, and they say that this last movement in respect to- the spirit duties strongly indicates • what his feelings are in the matter. However this may be, it is a fact that the efforts made by the licensed victuallers to meet the increased duty by placing an extra penny on the quartern of gin and other spirit s has caused a great decrease in the sale. SCANDALOUS STATE OF PUNIC AFFAIRS ! IT is impossible for any one capable of forming an opinion to survey, even cursorily, the general state oT business in the House of Commons, what ever may be his political sympathies, without coming to the conchision that owing to some cause or another that branch of the Legislature is now in a Col34it}o/1 which is remarkably un satisfactory, if not altogether unprecedented. Although the present session commenced some time before the usual period, there is every pros pect of itS being protracted to an unusually long date ; and, after all, it, promises to be immortalised for its unparalleled barrenness. If the people of this copntry, are not as insincere and indifferent to their best interests as those who are truly respon sible for this enormous waste of a whole legislative year, they will thank those who point out to them the circumstances which have led to this disas trous result. We would make an impartial appeal to facts rather than induige in merely political recrimination ; and, in tracing the cause to the • circumstances under which the Present Govern ment acceded to °face, Re do So, not in a 'mere party spirit, but as dealing with facts which are now historical. The Government atteinpts to' excuse itself in the face of the present state of matters by plead ing that the session has been occupied with busi ness of great importance. Now, what, let us ask, was that business ? When we name the Com mercial Treaty and the Reform Bill, -we specify the two measures which have chiefly occupied the time of the House. Upon these the session has been wasted. These are the " important " mea sures upon which the Government rests its plea of "not guilty" of culpable trifling and neglect of duty. How are we to estimate the real value and importance of these measures, and determine how far they exculpate the Ministry ? By the circumstances which called for their introduction ? By the character of the measures introduced ? Or by the results of their discussion ? Whether tried by any or all of these tests, • how far can it be said that the Government have justified their conduct ? What were the circumstances which called for the last Reform Bill and for the Commercial Treaty ? They were simply these. Her Ma jesty's Ministers, on the eve of their accession to power, laid down two principles upon which.they demanded that Lord DERBY should resign the reins of power in their favour. First : it was declared that there should be a reform of the House of Commons, upon a more democratic scale than that which the late Government thought desirable. Secondly : that Lord DERBY'S con tinuance in power endangered our friendly rela tions with France. To produce a democratic Reform Bill, therefore, and to cement our alliance with France, were the two great objects with which the present Cabinet charged itself; and accordingly we were favoured with a Commercial Treaty with France, and with Lord JOHN Rus- SELL'S latest Reform Bill. Now, these being the circumstances, what character properly attaches to them, viewed in the light of subs equen t even t s ? Were Ministers correct in their estimate as to the wishes of the House, or of the country, for a more democratic Reform Bill than Lord DERBY'S ; or, has it been demonstrated that they were egre giously wrong ? How far have ministers Shown themselves unitedly and perseveringly sincere in their professed conviction as to the truth of the principle upon which they Undertook to reform the House ? Then, again, were they warranted in professing that they alone, and not Lord DERBY, could effectually cement our alliance with France ; or do we now find ourselves in a deci dedly less amicable position towards that country than when Lord DERBY quitted office ? If kiiii - - ters have been at fault on these main points—and who can doubt it ?—the present Government has been formed upon n false basis ; and the circum stances which led to the introduction of the Reform Bill and the Commercial. Treaty, instead of constituting a vindication of their course of procedure, amount to a condemnation. "Was there anything in the character of these measures to compensate for the unworthy circum stances which called them into being ? We shall not enter particularly into the demerits of either. The country was quite sick of hearing about the miserable little Reform Bill long before it was withdrawn. It scarcely, found favour any where. As to the, Commercial Treaty, while it was undoubtedly received at first with•no small amount of acclamation, it is, now an object of regret, mortification, and apprehension to every man. Even 'now we can scarcely estimate all its evils. Could anything be clearer than that it is in consequence of Government 1 41 : } yimg been formed on false principles, whereby they haVe been forced to introduced ill-timed, unfortunate, and unhappy measures—whether in the shape of a Commercial Treaty or a Reform Bill—that a Whole session has been wasted ? Bad in their origin, and equally bad in their development, they have been correspondingly unfortunate in their career. These " important " Ministerial propositions, whose discussion has occupied so much time that ought to have been devoted to other and really " important" points, have either totally failed and been withdrawn, or have partially succeeded, and, while only partially successful, have proved in a great degree disastrous. We shall not dwell upon the fact that the Reform Bill, to carry which her Majesty's Ministers assumed office, was abandoned under disgraceful circumstances. As to the success of the Commercial Treaty and the state of our relations with our French neighbours, the present project for expensive fortifications is the best comment. There can be no doubt against whom these fortifications are to be raised. Lord PALMERSTON has declared that they are inten4ed to protect us from our only acknowledged enemy—France. To the forming a Government on false principles, then, we repeat, and to the necessity for intro ducing' measures to vindicate those false prin ciples, ar e to be attributed the waste of public time of which we complain, and the almost scan dalous position in which we now find the Legis lature of England. Not content ha,ying treated the Government of the country as if it had been a game at shuttlecock, weeks and long months have been wasted by the Whig-Radicals in attempting to carry out that illusory -pro gramme, which was the pretext by which a change of Government was effected, and the only result has been the lqwering of the House of Commons and Representative Government gene rally in the estimation of the people of this country and of the world. Or if indirectly any good has come out of this unhappy state of matters, it has been by having aroused the Con servative feelings of the country, and convinced all that the resignation of Lord DERBY'S Cabinet was a real affliction to the natibit, and that the sooner he is recalled to power's() Much the better for our future progress and national security-. PAROCHIAL FINANCE. Sancho Panza says " The world is divided into only two families, the Have-somethings and the Have-nothings. My old grandmother (he 'adds), who gave me this piece of information, always stuck to the Have-somethings; " and there is not a person living whose tendency is not the same way. The contest between the two classes is as old as civil society. We may believe as much as we like of the Homeric idea, that in the primitive ages—when the traveller had no shelter but the hospitable roof, and domestic 'misery and sorrow no settled provision fcir:their the stranger and the beggar were sacred characters," and equally under the special protection of Heaven. The latter, it is certain, soon lost his sanctity; and the proper control and management of the poor has, in all countries, formed one of the most difficult and perplexing problems for those who administer the affairs of State. " Aurungzebe," says Montesquieu, " when ask e d why he did not erect charitable establishments for the relief of the indigent, is said to have replied, I will render my empire so rich that there shall be no need for such estahlis4 l3 l . ents."! This, doubtless, would be a short cut to a most desirable end ; but the great conqueror WAS not political economist enough, it would seem, to be aware that such establishments originate in, and are the very consequence of riches. With the beat of social arrangements, the poor we s h a ll always have with us. q Toil, Care, and Eatience th h + bless ; Fear, Shame, and 'Want' the thoughtless herd pursue." At present, a Board of Poor Law Guardians is but the synonyme for all that is mean, petty, and contemptible in public life, and is inseparably associated with the idea of disgracefUl personal i ty and factious spab bles: clY i e !laye a bbdy Of the kiiid our own immediate neighbourhood- which has un fortunately done but little to remove the bad odour.) And yet "there is no reason why this should be so. 'Rightly regarded, the office of poor-law guardian isone of' dignity and responsibility. The Liverpool- Workhouse, with its Kirkdale branch, contains a population of 3,04() persons,— , , , w'itli one exception, one fact—it is the largest establishment of the kind in the whole kingdom; and the mem bers of the Select Vestry are entrusted with the administration of futids equalling -in- ainoiirif the . entire revenue of a German duchy: The trust is great, whether socially or financially considered ; and if unworthy or incompetent men be chosen for the 'of:flee, the fault is very largely that of the ratepayers themselves. We have just had laid upon our table a statement of the parish accounts for the year ending the 25th of March last. Some of the items are curiously suggestive ; but we shall, at present, content our selves by extracting a few of the general results. The total expenditure of the year amounts, in round ninnbrs, to £109,067; and the total receipts during the year to £ 116 ,700--the actual capital represented, the balance account included, being £254,181. The expenditure of the year for the in-maintenance of paupers in the Work house and at the Industrial Schools (that is simply for provisions, necessaries, and clothing), is £20,310, and there has been spent in out-door relief not less than £38,657. Of this amount, £23,956 was paid in money to resident and casual poor, £5,556 in bread ; for clothing to children on their leaving for service, £333. For the maintenance of pauper lunatics in Asy lums we observe the heavy item of £7,793. The establishment and other charges are of course very varied and numerous, included under the latter head being a payment to the Corporation for museum rate of £4,803, and for watch rate £8,525. The whole charges in respect of the Workhouse for the year amount to £32,233, in respect of the Industrial Schools to £10,526, and other charges" (either common to both or un connected with either establishment) reach to £66,3o7,—thus making the total expenditure of the year £109,067. The salaries paid in the Vestry Clerk's office amount to £1,127, the Vestry Clerk himself receiving £6OO of that amount ; in the Cashier's department, to £2,887 ; in the relief department, to £l,744,—the Superintendent Relieving Officer getting £3OO, and six relieving officers £760 amongst them. In the workhouse department, the Governor (who in his capacity, we may observe er4 passant, is one of the most excellent officers in the kingdom,) receives, without board, £356 ; the Chaplain, £238 ; and the total expen diture for salaries immediately connected with the establishment is £2,148. The salaries paid at the Industrial Schools reach -to £l,9s3—including £220 to the governor and matron, with board in addition ; £lOO, U 4 & surgeon ; and £250 to the chaplain and head-master. Then there are nine district medical ; officers, receiving salaries varying from £5O to £2OO, with vaccination fees in addi tion, as follows District Melical Officers. 'Vaccination. Salaries.

(FRQN OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Saturday Evening, July 28, 1860. Notwithstanding the absorbing nature of the interest which continues to be felt in the Syrian question, and in the future of the kingdom of Naples, the attention of a large portion o the Parisian community is fixed on the progress of a c ase at present before the law courts, which, owing to the largeness of the sum at stake, and the fact that the defendant is alleged to be in reality trustee for the Marquis de Chambord, is exciting, as may be supposed, an. immense degree of interest, especially among the friends of legiti macy. The following particul.trs regarding the suit cannot fail to be titqa e tive os. to . your readers. The question at issue arises out of the succession of the Marquis de Villette, the son of the nobleman of that name whose extraordinary worship of Voltaire made him quite a celebrated character. The late Ma r q uis left a will, dated Bth April, 18 59 , of whi c h the followin g ar e the principal clauses :—" I , CharleS Vilette, Mar quis de Vilette, die in the pale of the Catholic Church. I appoint? as my universal legatee, my dear and old friend the Count de t!reirx Breze, Bishop o f Moulins. In case he should not wish, or should ' not be able, to profit by this bequest, I appoiht by the same title, for my universal legatee, my dear cousin, Leon Cordier de Montreuil." Then follows another series of clauses for giving effect to the bbquest. The deed concludes as follows; " None of the furOwre, or abjeetts of art, which are in my castle of Villette, shall_ be sold; they shall in preserved in their place. s 9 fang, as, the chateau shall remain in the FOSS,Aion of ray uni versal legatee., 1145 collection is the work of three generations." A subsequent codicil ap points, in default of M. Montreuil, his. son, M. Alfred. .. The settlement is challenged by M. Montreuil, senior, who contends that the universal legacy a bequest for n ben om u i e n a a t l he ( d ap . p to (i rtehnet)l,3iLlshn,odp coofnel,eltiohjukicle i 4 merely the benefit of the Count de Chambord; who is incapable of receiving, by the terms of the law of the 10th of April, 1832, which declares that Charles X., his descendants, and the husbands and wives of Ilis descendants, shall not be able to enjoy, in France , any c iv il ri g ht, nor to p oss ess or acquire in France , a n y p ro p ert y p ers onal or real, by any title , either g ratuitous or on erous. The case for the plainti ff was stated last T hursday, before the Court of Clermont-Oise, by M. Av oca t Marie: After dwelling u p on the p olitical Opinions of the deceased marquis, after showing hi m to have been, on all occasions , the cl.cvoted. 'servant of the elder branchof the Bourbons, goi ng th e length even of offering himself' an hostage for the Duchesi of ' terry, when she w as i nliori - soned, and glorying in h i s having ',one so. i; an d a finally, in never having been false to the '' of his family ,-" A'rer 7 fa ith ful---e re), fait rotto M. •Marie endeavoured to make out that,? the testator's idea of thus .bequeathing t he whole of his fortune, which amounted to not less 4,000,0 00 francs . (i 160,000), was ~ofv eryt halnd s t a nding. The idea, in fact, c ou ld , Ile , old s tanding. traced back a s far as 1830, and the testator had never abaridOned it deAn td the day of his death. For example', in a will executed on the 15th May, 1836, the testator thus expressed himself :.---, ~ I die in saying, openly, and in my sons and conscience,—no, the Prince do Conde Aid not commit suicide ; his death is the. consequence of a crime—l die in endeavouring t o e ecute the well known intention of the Frince de .Conde, an intention well known to me, viz., to leave his I property to the Due de Bourdeaux, and to his sister, Mademoiselle. In consequence whereof, in dying, I entreat his Royal Highness Henri of France, to accept the offer which I make to him of the enjoyment and ownership of all my pro perty, personal and real, existing at the time of my decease." " I have no children," wrote at another time M. de Vilette to the Count de Cham bord, " I leave seine property ; deign to accept the offering of it. Oh ! reject not this respectful supplication. Pardon, Monsgr., this letter; I ain dying Monsgr., and it is the venerated names of Charles X, of Louis Antoine, of Caroline, which mingle themselves in my thoughts, with that of God." But the opinion of a juriseonsulte enlightens M. de Villette upon the nullity of a will made ostensibly for the benefit of a person whom the law declares incapable of receiving, and M. de Villette accordingly makes his will in favour of M. de Dreux-Bre'ze. This appoint ment, however, M. Marie contends, is only a formal one; the true, universal legatee, being the Count de Chambord; and he maintained that this fact was further evidenced by the following letter, written by the deceased to the Prince, on the 16th October, 1840, subse quently to an audience which he had had with the Prince at Goritz :—" I have no children, Monsgr., and I am thus enabled to offer you the obole' of the faithful subject. I made my will in 1836, but I feared it could not be accepted by you. Two settlements are made, one of them in consequence of the revolutionary facts which are accomplished, is a trust, and it is necessary to have recourse to the second. It will be seen to by you. I, a modest and simple gentleman, am at your feet, and I kiss again that hand which you allowed me yesterday to kiss, and I am, Monsgr., the most humble and most submis sive of your subjects." M. Marie went on to observe that the will of 1859, which is outwardly a bequest for behoof of the Bishop, could not, in the plaintiff's view, imply a change in the tes tator's intentions. It had continued always to be his fixed intention to bequeath his fortune to the Count do Chambord, and what made this clear to demonstration was the following letter, received from the Marquis by the Bishop :—" I appoint you, Monsgr., my universal legatee, because you know my intention to be that my fortune shall go to the Count de Chambord. It is a trust which I have confided to your friendship and your loyalty. I am asking General de la Rochejacquelaine to transmit you this letter, so that I may thank you from the depths of the tomb, for the missibn which you will have fulfilled." The question, said M. Marie, in conclusion, was —has this letter been transmitted to the bishop ? This, he declared, he could not answer one way or the other, but in his view, it was not, on that account, the less to be regarded as the certain proof of the intentions of M. de la Villette. The foregoing i s a summary of the case for the plaintiff. The Bishop, on being examined, main tained that he was a veritable legatee, and not an " interposed person." The proceedings are likely to last four or five days. The validity of the settlement is defended, on the part of the Bishop, by the eminent counsel MM. Berreyer and Plocque. You shall . have further details of this cause celebre as it advances, but meanwhile I would remark, that as the terms of the bequest seem to be ex facie, entirely absolute and unconditional, a nd the Bishop is not legally prohibited from dealing with it •as such, I do not see on what grounds it can be upset, unless the law be very much strained.for the special purpose. Well may people here ask " what's up now " re garding the intentions and - view s of the Emperor of the French with respect to the Italian question as it now stands. Little more than a week ago I gave you the-purport of an article in the Consti tutionel, which advocated plainly, and without disguise, the cause of federalism in Italy as against Italian nationality, and recommended strongly the Sicilians to annex themselves to Sardinia and be done with it ; stating, at the same time, that the compromise offered by Francis 11. was a fair one and should be accepted, and advising the other Italian states to adjust themselves, on the basis of the Villafranca arrangements. In the Journal des Debats of this day, there is a very able and thoroughly liberal article, containing recommenda tions and advice of the very opposite nature. Its importance at the present moment induces me to give you the following sanauutr y _ of its contents, and I do so the more readily because many of the sentiments of the write r of the article coincide so entirely with my J own views on the question. After a reference to the internal dissensions of the Italian party, th e writer proceeds to express his confid ence in th e ultimate triumph of the great Italian cause. Rix readers are reminded that Tuscany and the Romagna were last year in no better state than Sicily is. at the present moment. "It had been said that that the Italians were incapable o f liberty, and history had been largely quoted i n support of this assertion, but what is the case now? To their immortal honour, the Sieilia.n.s have sur mounted all the difficulties to which they have been exposed, all the dangers of anarchy, and all the perilous enjoyments of their suddenly acquired liberty ; and they now offer to astonished Europe the spectacle of a wisdom and a spirit of self-control which was never expected from them," After alluding to the annexation of the Duchies and the Romagna to Sardinia, and to the pro posed annexation of Naples, he observes that " It is puerile to, OA oX the annexation of Italy to Piedmont. It is Piedmont that is to be annexed to Italy." lie enjoins the Sicilians to continue to have confidence in themselves, and he asks how can they expect, after such a long period, of misgovernment and of oppression,, to. become familiar in a day with all the delicatesses of constitutionalism ? M. L,€moine next describes the present eon,clition of the Neapolitans, which he characterises. as a" dull, stupid torpor," he warns then) against accepting the concessions offered by Francis 11., and says that " despite all the consti tutions and all the oaths in the world, Naples will still remain the ally of Austria, and Naples will always be, in the south of Italy, the point de appui, the point of equilibrium of the Austrian quadi lateral of the north." " The reforms offered are far too late; no one can have any faith in these con cessions, far as soon as the danger is over, nay as soon as it tR merely suspended, natural tendencies 'will take their irresistible course. How then is it possible to expect either the consolidation of a Liberal Government at Naples, or an allian ce ith Naples and Turin ?" " The present dynasty cannot exist with liberty, for it would have to rely fbr support on those classes which it has always persecuted, oppre sse d , or exiled. It is forced to seek its ministers and its agents from among the exiled and in the prisons. A national guard will increase the nunlkr 91. its enemies, and, to crown all, it will bring together a Parliament in whi c h i t will find itself in the presence of refugees, bani s h e d b y it in former times, and to-day , lestnred by the grace of Guiseppe Garibaldi.

The system of dualism, viz., one great Italian power in the north,and another in the south, is also out of the question, A n Italy divided into two can nev er be independent ; it would be a house divided against itself. He thus concludes :—‘• To a sincere alliance between Naples and Turin radical impossibilities.

The Pope has decided upon not quitting Rome._ Bills have been posted announcing the approach ing outbreak of a revolution. NEAPOLITAN POLICY. NAPLES (vid Alarseilles), July 24. The official journal contains an article express ing regret at the hostile aggressions made in Sicily, whilst negotiations are being carried on for the solution of the pending question at Turin, Paris, and London; and notwithstanding that, the Neapolitan Government had given orders for the evacuation of Sicily by the royal troops, in order to avoid the shedding of Italian blood. The same journal repeats that an alliance between Piedmont and Naples is necessary for the welfare of Italy. Fifteen steamers of the royal fleet have left Naples for Sicily. An ordinance has been published by the Predict of Police, against abuses of the liberty of the press. Sixteen per-. sons belonging to the Court have been exiled. Numerous refugees have returned to Naples, among whom are General Ulloa and Signor Davala. The existing municipalities are to be renewed on the 6th of August next. NAPLES, July 27. Tranquility has not been disturbed at Naples.. SICILY. GENOA, July 27 According to advices received here the loss of the Garibaldians at Milazzo WAS 780. The Neapolitans had 1,223 killed. There are many wounded on both sides. s symbol, a standard, a credo. That is stronger than all the desperate remedies which can be adopted by a government which is at bay, and which recalls the history of the alchymist, on whose person there was found after 11:s death, the elixir of immortality." There is an increased degree of probability that a convention will be signed by the chief Christian powers, to regulate the arrangements under which France is to send an armed force to Syria, a step which the Constitutionnel declares is intended " neither as an occupation nor as an intervention ; it is a support which we are about to give to Turkey to aid her in repressing disorders which will infallibly entail the loss of the empire, unless a check be opposed to this outburst of fanaticism and barbarity." Count de Hautpoul is profiting by the delay in the de parture of the force, to increase its efficiency. He has asked for an additional 3,000 or 4,000 men, in order to be able to defend simultaneously the several points which are menaced. This officer is said to be thoroughly acquainted with the country. He was in Syria in 1840, and attended on the expedition of Soliman Pacha, who was fighting for Ibraham. M. Thiers was with 'difficulty prevented in that year, it will be remem bered, from involving France and England in hostilities. The news from Sicily continues conflicting and contradictory, and in presence of such a state of things, I prefer to wait till next post before pass ing on any of the rumours that are current regarding the recent skirmishes at Milazzo and. near Messina. According to a letter from. Messina in the Patrie, the killed and wounded. in the army of Garibaldi amounted to 1,200, and: the loss of the Neapolitans to nearly 3,000.

The official Prussian gazette contains a. leading. article, of which the following is a summary:—..Th e hopes which had been, entertained in reference to the meeting of the two sovereigns at Tceplitz, have not be•s ll disappointed. The approach to a better understandi ng between the two cabinets has been promoted by this meeting in the manner to be desiderated. The freak arid; friendly meeting of the two princes and their piio c ap ii i : advisers, and the mutual exchange of their views, have. brought the relative positions of the two states, into Et„ clearer light. A mutual understanding on, the most important questions of European policy bas also been. found to exist. It, therefore, became possible to arrive. at the conditions of a sincere union. In this union guarantee for her security, and( Germany will find fre s h may hope that, in future, the import a n ce of her inter es t s. will lay heavier in th e b alance of power in Europe, Europe will, by th e T ceplitz meeting, obtain f res h guarantees for the maintenance 'of public peace and for the respect of the equilibruirn. The article then points out what connection exists between the new path Austria has taken, in reference to her interior policy and • her approach to Prussia. The article thus contintkes, There is no doubt. but that Austria will continue in the path upon which she has entered, and that she is resolved upon following her new policy, net only as regards religious questions, but also in reference to the different nationalities of the empire. Thus Austria will obtain a position which will increase her strengt,ll at home and abroad. The article concludes-by refuting the opinion o f those who expect from the meeting at Tceplitz a change in the interior policy of . Prussia, and shows.such a change to be impossible from the known policy and character of both the Prince 4egtr4 and his ministers. Wind
