ITALY AND ROME

VIENNA. MAT 11.

The official A bendpost of to-day says :—" The
negotiations between the Papal Court and the
Turin Government merely concern ecclesiastical
questions. It need hardly be stated that the ru-
mours asserting that the Austrian Ambassador at
Rome had taken part in the negotiations are with-
out any foundation, since these are in no way
connected with Austrian interests."

THE PRINCE OF WALES IN DUBLIN.

THE REVIEW IN THE PIKENIX-PARK.

(nom ous WICIAL

DUBLIN, WZDIMSDLY!

As early as 12 o'clock to-day the people of Dublin,
who dearly love a review, began to pour down upon
the road which leads to thel noble chase which is so
well known as the Phceniz-park. The jaunting cars
drove a roaring trade in taking up and setting down,
and the number of dasbiug private equipages that
streamed incessantly towards the "Fifteen Sores"
went a good way to prove that the Irish distress of
which we occasionally hear so much in parliament
must, after all, be a rather singular species of desti-
tution. When they had all taken their places at
the boundary HMI which had been marked out by
the police they formed a triple line upwards of a
mile long, whilst the concourse of persons on foot
was perfectly amazing. I had in previous years
seen a good many spectacles of the same kind and in
the same place, and 1 was particularly struck with
the improved appearance, both as to health and
dress, of the people. There were neither rags nor
squalor, but crowds of well-dressed, healthy, cheer-
ful people, anxious to see the Prince and the
review and to enjoy themselves without drunken-
ness, riot, or insubordination. They often surged
up into forbidden ground, as great crowds will do
everywhere, but when the dragoons and horse
polies came down amongst them, making their
well trained horses caracole in the method usual on
such occasions, they only found an occasion for
amusement. The Prince, the Drake of Cambridge,
the Lord Lieutenant, and a brilliant staff, reached
the ground at half-past three, mid bb Rovo
uysine appearance 'was die signal for the-most cu=
thusiastic cheering. His Royal Highness wore a
I hussar uniform, the duke that of a field-marshal,
and the staff those of their respective regiments.
The Lord-Lieutenant was in plain clothes. It was a
gay and brilliant oceme, notwithstanding the
threatening aspect of the clouds, and its effect was
much enhanced by the number of ladies ea horse-
back, who " scoured" like " swift Cantinas" over
the turf in every direction. It must be remembered
that a review in the Phwitiz-park has this peculiar
attraction, that, it takes place ou the green turf, and
can therefore be gone through in the finest weather
without a particle of dust. The Fifteen Acres
appeared this morning in a splendid mantle of green
velvet, embroidered with buttercups and daisies,
but lam sorry to be obliged to add that it pre-
sented a very different appearance in the evening
after 5,000 men, and hundreds of horses and
numerous pieces of artillery has tramped or gal-
loped, or lumbered over it for a couple of hours.
The troops reviewed were the 11th Hussars, the
sth Dragoon Guards, two troops of horse artillery,
two or three line regiments, including the gallant
Highlanders the rifle brigade, and a battalion of
the military train. They made a very pretty march
past, went through the usual manmavrea, and ex-
pended a considerable quantity of powder. The
charge of the cavalry across the elastic turf was a
magnificent spectacle, as was also the appearance
of the troop. standing at the salute as the Prince
and his staff rode slung the line. As the Prince
left the ground the cheering which had greeted his
entrance was renewed with increased enthusiasm,
and almost immediately after, the rain, beginning to
fall heavily, scattered the vast crowd in all di-
rections.
