PARIS, TUESDAY EviNnqc.

The Patric states that the three protecting powers
of Greece—namely, Russia, France, and England—
have already agreed upon the principle of non-
intervention, and that the English government is
about to issue a diplomatic circular informing its
representatives abroad of that fact. I cannot sup-
pose, however, that the principle of non-interven-
tion—highly laudable as it is under the circum-
stances—can, as yet, have been so absolutely
adopted as to do away with the stipulations of the
treaty of 1832, which exclude any prince of the
families of the three protecting powers from the
throne of Greece. This consideration removes out
of the field several candidates whose names
have been put forward. There would be
uo objection, however, on this score, at
least, to Victor Emmanuel's second son, the
Prince Amadeus, to whom, according to some
letters from Turin, the Greeks may probably offer
the vacant monarchy. It is agreed on all hands
that the news of Otho having abdicated was false.
He is not only a pretender to the crown he has
lost, but, if we may believe the France, a clamour-
outs one. According to that journal he declares
that the violence of which he is the victim was not
provoked by any unconstitutional act on his part,
that he maintains his rights, and that the "Greek
question" is a European one, which Europe must
settle.

The Pays gives the exiled monarch little en-
couragement. It says :

The revolution may be considered u consummated so far
as regards Otho and his dynasty. It is always regrettable to
see a straggle between a King and his people lead to such a
dinoarment, but in the present instance the importance of
the event is singularly diminished by the particular situa-
tion of the country in which the revolution has broken out.
None of the great interests now in question in Europe can
be affected by the fall of Otho. The eastern question will
not be troubled by new complications in consequence of this

movement. It will be remembered that neither France nor
England had any reason to be pleased with the attitude of
the Greek government during the war in the Crimea.
England cherishes a deep resentment against the King for
his conduct on that occasion.

The Phare de la Loire, of Nantes, has received
an intimation from the prefect that the newspapers
are prohibited from repeating any rumours about
ministerial changes or dissensions between the
members of the cabinet. Any allusion to such
reports will be treated as an infraction of the decree
against false news, and punished accordingly. It
is not from the French press, therefore, that you
can expect any assistance in forming an opinion as
to whether and how soon any of M. Thouvenel's
late colleagues are likely to follow him in his
retirement. " All serene !" is the official order of
the day until a crash comes.
The necessity of conciliating for a moment a
prominent minister, who notoriously did not ac-
cept M. Drouyn de Lhuys as a coadjutor with any
good will, is shown by the announcement in the
France that on Thursday the Emperor and Em-
press will do the Count and Countess de Persigny
the honour to dine with them at their Chateau of
Chamarande.

Yesterday the Empress made a morning call on
the Duchess de Morny at the Palace of the Corps
LegisLtd.
M. de Bismark arrived at the Berlin legation at
11 this morning.
M. Thouvenel has been appointed chairman of
the Eastern Railway, vice Drouyn de Lhuys. This
is a curious chasms croisa.

A report has been circulated, perhaps by way of
advertisement, that the censure had, for political
reasons, prohibited the revival of Maseastiello at the
