PRUSSIA.

The definitive elections for the Prussian Chamber
take place to-morrow. The ministry, it is said,
will present itself to the new Chamber to defend
its budget. The %rents Zeitung counsels the
government to abstain from any measure which
has the appearance of a coup d'etat and an attack
on the constitution, but to be ready to repress any
abuse the Chamber may make of its right to vote
the taxes.

The liberal party, it appears, has made a clear
gain of 20 votes by the elections.

THE RECEPTION OF KING VICTOR
EMMANUEL AT NAPLES.

Letters from Naples describe the reception of the
King of Italy as one of the most remarkable de-
monstrations that has ever taken place in Europe.
One correspondent writes :

lamat a loss for terms to describe the enthusiastic re- 1
ception which was accorded yesterday to Vector Emmanuel, 1
the King of Italy. It infinitely surpassed, both in fervour
and universality, his first reception, and far exceeded my
expectations, though they were by no mune low. For a
week or more the fever has been rising; yesterday from
dawn of the day the excitement wee intense,
and when the first canyon boomed which announced
the approach of his Majesty there was • burst
of feeling which it wee impossible to ra,stake.
At 3 o'clock our ships dremed, and every mast in the bay
was covered in • moment with tricoloured flags ; then our
bluejackets, oonventially so called, though they now are all
as white as snow, were seen running up the rigging and
clustering about the mute like gulls. "n Be Galantetomo
vim)" was the universal shout, and the muses were
heaving backwards and forwards with impatient expecta-
tion ; but yet another hour of anxious endurance ensued.
At last a shot from the Castello d'Ovo announced that
the royal vessel was turning the point of classic and
lovely Pantilippo ; the buzz of voices, and the clapping of
heads, even in the distant parts of the city, were universal
and unceasing. The thin mists which had covered
the inn for two or three hours, protecting the vast
crowds from its burning rays, now cleared up, and sea and
mountain dressed themselves in their most gorgeous colours
for their King ; our ships fired salvoes, which were re-
peated by the ships in harbour and the forts, and amid the
rejoicings of nature, for the son buret out at this moment.
and the universal rejoicing of hundreds of thotuands of
expectant free men, their King rounded the Castello, and
came in view of the city. It was as beautiful a sight as I
ever witnessed. As soon as the Maria Adelaide anchored
the state barge received the King, and attempted to make
its way to the land—attempted I say advissely, for such •
multieo: boats crowded around it, Ord with enthusi-
sem peones desiroos of welcoming their sovereign, that it
was difficult to land. It was calculated that 500 of these
goats hovered round the royal barge. On his Majesty
disembarking, and entering the pavilion which had been
erected expressly for the occasion, and fitted up with ex-
quisiteraste, he was received with • hurricane of applause. I
can give you no idea of the ardour, the waving of handker-
chiefs, clapping of hands, and shouts of " Viva Vittorio
Eniminuele, it ReGalantuomo, U Be d'ltalia Unita !" Bou-
quets were showered thicker than May showers could do it.
Every possible spot wasoccupied, and the very masts of the
vessels had their clusters. The King was evidently moved
by the enthusiasm of the people, and that is saying
much for • man of iron Darren The demonstration
must have been • mighty one which could so far
have affected him. In the pavilion there were in attend-
ance the civil and military authorities and ministers of
state, and members of the diplomatic holy and other per-
sons of distinction who had received invitations. As soon
as the official greetings were completed, the King entered
the royal carriage, which was in attendance, and, preceded
by • picket of mrabineers, commenced the truly royal pro-
caine°. Before all, however, went • hod of gallium, who,
in all countries, it would appear, are the exponents of
Public joy; the various associations of students, operati,
0 Italia Una," and several others followed, bearing flags
and boughs of trees. I saw several priests in the pro-
cession, and an old friar sinking under the weight of a
Mauer.

And now one word as to my impressions of this wonderful
pageant and demonstration. First, the Southern Italians
are eminently monarchical is their ideas and tendencies.
Republicanism will never find any root here. Such theories
may be started, and associations in their favour may be
found, but nothing but monarchy will go down here. And
who is that monarch to be? Not a foreign prince ; the
very stones would rise up in protest against him ; and
much less a Bourbon. Some may have been discon-
tented, impatient, exigeanta, but they will not have a
Bourbon. Who, then, is to be their sovereign but Victor
Emmanuel? And yesterday they declared in the face of
Europe that they will have him, and none but him.

The King has since paid a visit to the French
admiral on board the Bretagne, meeting with an
imposing reoeption. Salutes were fired by the
whole fleet. To-day the French fleet was to give a
nautical spectacle.
The ministers of Belgium and Sweden have
arrived at Naples. _

On Saturdsy the King went to Caderts, and was
greeted with remarkable enthusiasm. He gave
10,000 fr. for purposes of charity.

The miniateis and the Cite of Neapolitan society
were present at a wince given by the French con-
sul at Naples on Saturday night.
The Viceroy of Egypt has been received by the
King. The royal villa of la► Favorita Lm been
placed at his disposal.
The Neapolitan merchants have distributed
14,000 kilogrammes of bread amongst the poor
ou the occasion of the royal visit.

To-day the King was to leave for Salerno.

CELEBRATION OF THE ANNIVERSARY OF
THE MARSALA EXPEDITION.
GENOA, KAT 4, EVINING.
The anniversary of Garibskit's Marsala expedi-
tion was celebrated by the people of this city
to-day.
The population generally, including the care-
biniers and the workmen's associations, took part
in the manifeation.
Shouts were raised of "Rome and Venice."

A correspondent of the Opinion Nationale remarks
on the too pronounced desire of the Exhibition commis-
sion to make money out of au undertaking which ought to
have been conducted in a more popular and generous spirit-
The writer concludes his letter by saying, " the English
can study with profit the finest contributions sent to the
Exhibition Palace, which, built of brick, surmounted by
two glans bells, is in most hornbill taste. Perhaps there
never existed anything more ugly. This is not an individual
and French opinion—it is unanimous. The English them-
selves go so far as to soy it is s ' dolga' "
For the last three days the ordinary railway
balm fm the transport of posempos front Paris to Loudon
bars sot bum sufficient far the creeds who promoted
themselves at the venous stations. It became necessary
emsemneotly to despatch numerous extra trains, at short
intervals from each other.
