FRANBIL—A French provincial paper bas received s
warning and admonition for having made an attack upoi.
the Can, far hie reivognition of the Kingdom of Italy.
Th, joumatibt is charged with having insulted in tip
most violent manner a sovereign friendly to France
With respect to the rumoured Imperial and Royal eon-
vocatiou, at which France,ltussia, and Prussia are to take
Block of the political tendencies of these times, and
arrive at a mutual understanding on sundry things of
great moment to Royal and Imperial personages, MI.
Preset stites that it will take place at Baden oi
Cologne. The news from Mexico, as published in the
Moniensr, is favourable. The health of the army and
that of the Rest are excellent. Of course
ITALY.—The greatest soldier and friend of Italy, the
man under heaven most instrumental in making Italy
b what she now is, Joseph Garibeldi, has been insulted
by the Government of Turin. The speech delivered by
the patriot at Palermo contained rather too much of
the truth reepecting that great frierd of Italy. Napo-
leon 111., and the papers containing a report of the
Test& have been seimd by order of the Tuein authori-
tea Moreover, it is stated that the prefect of Pu'ereno
has been dismissed from bill odice, he being one of
Garibaldi's sympathisers, and that the French Consul
had protested against the attack on the Emperor con-
tained in Garibaldi's speech. From all this it vioild
appear that the Government of Italy is settling down
into the humbler worshipper, the obedient slave or
France, a "settling" which will not raise it in the
estimation of any one whose estimation is worth

• hiving.
pRUSKA.—Tho Premien Ministers are determined
to have a navy like other nations. On MondaY the
Weisner of War laid a bill on the table of the Chamber
of Deputies for an extraordinary credit for the purpose
of building ships of war, and a special committee of
members has been appointed to report upon the
demand.
RUSSIA„—Tnx THOTH ABOUT HOWL—There arein
Russia persona yet more aware than the soldiery of the
decline it their country in European estimation. The
nobles have, for a whole generation, been learning more
of what the world is like beyond their frontier; and
they fled their position he atrong contrast to that of a
resin* aristesracy. They are not of ancient stock;
they ars not of natural growth; they were till lately
liable to the knout ; arid, sat need not add, they have
no sacred heritage of personal honour as a ground of
preitige. There are many and great advantages in being
a noble in Russia; but it is not a thing to be proud of.
The more the nobles travel, the more keenly they feel
their inferiority to every primitive aristocracy; and
they learn Allis same time that while the dignity of
their order has somewhat improved at home, the repute
and renames of their emote, have, iir a much greater
proportion, deolinod abcoad. With no political career
open to them, and their territorial prospects spoiled by
the curse of serfage, which could neither go on nor be
got rid of, the class of nobles was far from happy
before their Emperor ea/led upon them to deal with
that curse of serfage. At present we see some of them
glad that the hour ha; come, and loyally devoted to
work eat the scheme, while more are reluctant, angry,
sullen' or immovable ; and all are in difficulties about
land sod money.
POLA,ND.—A letter from Warsaw of the 10th gives
Nome partioslamof the man who attempted to arse*
nate the fitianal Duke Constantine. He refuses tamale
any oon =eitet. wing that death is certain to him, and
that he want to be minceeseauilr tenneated.
He refusentai ithether he has any accomplices. The
trial is to be conducted by civil and military judges, and
the Greed Doke has stated that he wishes it to be open
to the Public. It is stated, cm the ituthority of private
correspondence front Warsaw, that three officers of the
Healeo,axusp, whetted been eendernaed to death by a
eon "for having excited and propagated di.-
contest, Wind lb. Government," mere shot on the
28th of :un• in the fortress of Mollie. The first was a
Swede, from Finland ; the second a Russian; and the
third a Pole. The sentence was not executed in
Wallow from an apprehension that the soldiers might
refuels to carry it into effect, and give • dangerous ex-
ample cif insubordination. The three odicers were shot
at the boll al the fortress wall; they died with peat
isertrage. Arakold left a sum of 5,000 roubles to pay
histogra debt, and those of his comrade, Sliwieki ; the
remainder to be given to the library of his regiment anti
sem% , charitable institutions. It is staled that the
eximution has not had the effect anticipated, but has
excited a general feeling of indignation, as it was
eonsidered that on the trial so crime was proved
whist them that could legally incur the penalty of
death.
MEXICO.— The French *marauder in MexMl reports
thathiscommanisations with Vera Crag have been re-es-
tabliatied, and that their maintenance has been provided
for by; • portion of the troops under Marquez. Entrench-
meats had been thrown up at Orizaba, as • protection
front a sudden surprise. Zeragozs was moving about in
a mysterious meteorie fashion, but had made no fresh
atteckupon the French, although that was expected,
Map:lees, who knows his countrymen better than the
Fetlock general, having assured the latter that the
&tem* wonld be made at once,
SPAIN.—The Dahate says :—"lf we may credit
Intelligence which bee int reached us from Madrid
tha example which Ramie and Prussia have given to
the powers which have not yet recognised the Kingdom
of Italy has already produced the expected effect upon
SKiigpainisZiolicy. We are assured by a despatch of
yeeterda s date that the proposal to recognise the
of Italy has been discussed in the council of
SOMA Ilialsista, gad P - • - received."
