LA COALITION.

The pamphlet, " La Coalition," originates from
a Government source, although it has been
denied.

REVOLUTION IN NAPLES.
MARSEILLES, April 17.

The direct steamer from Naples arrived this
morning, and brings advices 'from that city to the
-

14th instant. It is asserted that on Thursday
last a large bomb was thrown before the palace.
The explosion shattered all the windows; no per-
son was injured. The revolutionary attempt of

the Bth, at Messina., commenced by the killing of
two-sentinels. The .movement was less serious
than reported by the passengers of the Meandre,
which remained a great distance off where the
combat took place. Flying columns were pursu-
ing the bands of insurgents, who had taken
refuge in the mountains. It is positive that no
preparations had been made to pass the Roman
frontier unless an attack was made against Rome
by Piedmont.
The official Neapolitan journals, from the 10th
to the 14th instant inclusive, say nothing of the
popular movement, at Messina. Private letters
merely state that the attempts to surprise the
military posts at Messina had been repelled, and
that the agitation was less at that place than at
Palermo. Ten thousand men were pursuing the
insurgent bands since the insurrection commenced.
The Government has sent into Sicily four bat-
talions of infantry, two batteries of artillery, and
a regiment of I; ulcers. The Governor of Sicily
had written thrtt no more reinforcements need
be sent, his forces being sufficient. General
Filanghari had returned to Naples, and counselled
military measur es. A correspondent considers
the movement in Sicily to have miscarried. The
diplomatic corps were, however much occupied
with the unsettled state of affairs in the island.

TRIEETE, April 17,

The Trieste Ze::-.5u2-4;;t says, according to authentic
private information from Messina to the 9th, that
the Austrian Consul had quitted that city on
board an Austrian merchant vessel. The bom-
bardment of the city was expected in the course
of the 9th.

THE COUNT OF SYRACUSE TO THE
KING OF NAPLES.

IkIILAN, April

The Perteveranza publishes a letter, dated the
3rd of April, from the Count of Syracuse to his
nephew the King of Naples, relative to the policy
to be
.followed under existing circumstances.
This letter states that the realisation of the
principle of Italian nationality is inevitable,
Piedmont having invited and developed that
idea. France and England are endeavetring to
obtain influence in the Peninsula. Austria has
lost her preponderance. An alliance. with France
is impossible. The Count farther states that the
present policy of the King of Naples is very
dangerous, and advises his Majesty to grant a
constitution to his people, and to conclude an
alliance with Piedmont.

with enthusiasm.

RUSSIAN REPLY TO SWITZERLAND,
GENEVA, April 17

Prince Gortschakoff, in his reply to the note
of Switzerland, indentifies Russia with the other
powers who have signed the treaty of 1815, and
who have recognised the inviolability and the
neutrality of Switzerland. In this note the
Prince also states that it is the true political
interest of Europe to preserve Switzerland from
all foreign influence ; but France having mani-
fested an intention of negotiating either with the
Great Powers or the Swiss Confederation, and
the Federal Council having expressed a similar
desire, Russia gives her complete adhesion to the
assembling of a conference, being convinced that
the Federal Council does not doubt her solicitude
to efficaciously ensure the neutrality of Switzer-
land.

SPREAD OF THE NEAPOLITAN
INSURRECTION.

NAPLES (Vij Genoa), April 1,1

The insurrection has spread to Tropani, where
the Provisional Government and the National
Guard have joined the insurgents. The royal
troops still occupy Palermo, which is destitute of
everything. Great activity prevails in the
arsenal at Naples. The embarkation of troops
for the provinces continue. The agitation is
increasing. The corps crarint,le in the Abruzzi
has been summoned.

PROBABILITY OF A CONFERENCE.
BERN E, April 17.
There again appears some probability that the
Conference will take place. England proposes
Brussels as the place where it should be held,
while France insists upon Paris, in which she is
supported by Russia.

M. THOUVENEL ON THE SWISS
CIRCULAR NOTE.
PARIS, April 17.
M. Thouvenel has informed the representatives
of the powers who signed the final act of Vienna
of the nature of the reception France will give
to the circular note of the Swiss Federal Council
of the oth of April, respecting the convocation
of an European Conference. It was not
until the King of Sardinia had formally
taken possession of Lombardy, and the treaties
of Zurich had been signed and ratified, that
France and Austria jointly addressed an- in-
vitation to the Powers who had signed the trea-
ties of Vienna, to assemble in a conference in
order to make known to them the territorial
arrangements which had resulted from the cession
Lombardy to Piedmont, which cession was freely
consented to by Austria. No power having then
objected, France will now follow the same
course. When, therefore, the cession of Savoy
and Nice, freely consented to by Piedmont,
shall have been sanctioned and ratified by the
universal suffrage of the inhabitants, and by the
vote of the Sardinian Parliament, France .Fill
take possession of those provinces. Immediately
afterwards she will consent to the as7ernmcbolimngmuof
a conference for the purpose of receiving
nication of the treaty conclnlcie. andd K
on of94tihngVictor
likewise March
last, between Napoleon I
I
Emmanuel. France will be willing that
the said Conference shall examine the following
what manner are the rights of
question :—ln
France, irrevocably acquired through the cession
of Savoy and Nice by the King of Sardinia, to be
reconciled with the guarantees stipulated by the
treaties in favour of Switzerland; it being, how
ever, well understood that the Conference shall
leave the treaty of the 24th March intact ?

THE GREAT FIGHT FOR THE
CHAMPIONSHIP.

The accounts in the evening papers of the fight
for the championship are still rather imperfect.
The members of the prize ring left the London-
