tisans of the national idea, threaten to desert the
throne, and make common cause with the revolu-
tion. These tendencies are stall more general in
the navy, which has already given the example
of defection ; and they are, in both branchee of
the service, incessantly kept alive by printed pro-
clamations, circulated in v,ll directions by Gari-
baldi. In quoting the course Which the King has
adopted in sending away the Royal Guards from
Naples, and entrusting thecommand of the diffe-
rent poste in the city to the National Guard, as a
proof of the confidence which the -government
feels in the people, it Must be kept in view that
the Guard has been sent to garrieon the different
fortresses in the kingdom, from which all the
troops supposed to be disaffected have been
removed.

People here have been lately speaking of some
strong representations having been made by the
English Government against the dispatch by
France to Syria of the large force (some say
25,000) that it was at one time proposed to send
there. These remonstrances are said to have been
grounded, among other things, on the fear that at
the appearance of a large French army in Syria,
the Christians throughout Turkey would rise en
nutsse. That this would be the case, especially in
Bessarabia, where a•still graver state of matters
would arise that would be certain to lead to acts
of violence and disorder on a still larger scale,
admits of but little doubt. But would this be also
displeasing to the French Government? I rather
think not.

The Emperor has come to Paris, and he has
been on an excursion to Rambouillet with M.-
Rothschild—a circumstance which leads me to
speak of finance. I mentioned to you several days
ago, and at least 48 hours before the fact was ad-
verted to in the English papers, that a large loan
in Exchequer Bonds to meet the expenses of a
Syrian campaign, was in contemplation. I now
learn that the loan will be larger than was at
first. supposed, not less than eight millions
sterling. What more natural than that his
Majesty should avail himself of the great Hebrew
capitalist in carrying out the scheme ? The Count
de Montessuy, the French Minister at Brussels,
is also here at present, and it is generally sup-
posed that the object of his visit is to obtain from
the Emperor, with whom he has had several
interviews, instructions how to act in presence of
the celebration at Brussels to-day, of the anni•
versary of Belgian independence, for which
unusual preparations have been made. According
to the principal Belgian journal, " one single cry
would be heard to issue from all lips, Vive le
Roi Vive I'lndependance Nationale ."" 'Phis,
perhaps, is not a cry which, in these days of
annexations, will be considered by the Imperial
neighbour of the constitutional King Leopold as
the most welcome. •

THE

POPE'S IRISH BRIGADE.

FURTHER PAINFUL DETAILS.

SEVERAL OF THE BRIGADE SHOT.

We have received news by a private despatch
that General Lamoriciere has been obliged to
send away more than 100 of the Irish, who
had mutined at Rome, and who have even,
it is said, subsequently committed other excesses
in their new garrisons, and that the General
has found it necessary to shoot several of them.
As for the rest, 120 of them were put on hoard
of the steamer Quirinal, at Civita Vecchia. They
arrived at Marseilles on the 16th, and were
desirous of claiming the protection of the British
Consul; but there, as at Trieste, they received
for answer that, in consequence of their un-
authorised enlistment, they had lost their
nationality, and were not entitled to the pro-
tection of the British Government. They are at
this moment in a state of extreme misery. It
will be a question whether they would not be
despatched to Africa.
*** It will be noticed that the arrival of these
unfortunate " volunteers" at Marseilles, is con-
firmed by telegram received this evening.

PARIS, July 22.

The 3loniteur of to-day says : The proposals
made by France with the object of arresting the

whole or the greater part. Austria and Russia
have given the same opinion.

going to receive the orders of the Prince Regent
on the subject.

A Convention is going to be signed for deter-

Accounts received from Douro are very un-
favourable. The disease appears to threaten the
vines more so than that of last year, and those
that have undergone the sulphur cure have in
' many parts derived no benefit.whatever. In the
southern districts the grapes appear promising.
Count Bolhao has notified through the press his
intention of presenting himself before the tribunal,
to answer the charges lately brought against him
in reference to the recent base coinage transac-
tions, as soon as the Minister of Justice (Marten
Ferraa) left office.
