of having violently entered the bonus of the Quid
de la Rap4e, to peewee thaeasslves of the arms of
National Guard,. They admit the former part of the
charge, bet deny the latter.
We find the following in the Nuurelliste of Mar-
seilles of the 17th :—M. Emile 011ivier, struck to the
heart, no doubt, by the Lows of his unexpected dis-
grace, for it is easy to entertain illusion, at 23 years
of age, suddenly teok a place in the mail, and left at
three o'clock. This precipitate departute before the
arrival of our new prefect, however unexampled it may
be, has nothing in it to alarm our population. On the
contrary,it is a cause of confidence, for it is well known
that it is not by resolution and firmness that the son
of the Demosthenes of Marseilles shines. It is af-
firmed that the action of the military authorities was
paralysed during the riots which have stained our
city with blood. lf, in consequence of some of those
sinister rumours which certain people take pleasure in
spreading abroad, measures of prudence were ren-
dered necessary in order to prevent a direful conflict,
the commandant of the division, relieved from a de-
plorable pressure, will know how to maintain order
and security."
The repairs at the Tuileries, suspended by the
events of June, have been resumed. It is said that
the alterations in the hall of the Assembly not having
been produ, tive of any improvement in its acoustic
qualities, the idea of appropriating the Tuileries to the
sittings of the National Assembly is again entertained.
sterday some architects inspected it, and are
about to prepare a plan for this purpose.

SPAIN.—The Madrid journals of the 15th have
come to hand. The Heraido quotes from the Enpano
a statement that, in consequence of the Queen being
in " an interesting situation," the physicians have ad-
vised her to refrain from dancing. The Hernido being
a simi-official organ, the tact of the Queen being en-
evinte is by this quotation placed beyond doubt, especi-
ally as it observes that her Majesty's position, " will
fill the Spaniards with joy." A letter from Coruuna
to that journal announces that an English vessel had
disembarked arms on the coast of Spain. The ac-
counts from the disturbed provinces, though not im-
portant, were generally satisfactory to the Queen's
_ _

The //crabio of the 13th states, that the Carlists
under Rojo de Leon and Mariano I'cco, who had
surprised the small town of Villaneva de la Serena,
had been defeated by an ensign of the civic guard,
with eighteen men under his command, who had
completely routed them, killing four men, and making
many prisoners.
The same journal also says that, by letters received,
it appeared that Elio had resolved to ester Spain.

ITALY.—We read in the Velttidue Marzo of Milan
of the 15th, that the l'iedmontese army had /111-
rounde.l that part of Mantua which extends from
Curtatone to the fort of Pictole. The Lombardtan
troops under the command of Gen. Perrone arrived
on the evening of the 14th, and were stationed on the
same line.

The Penaiero Italian° of the 15th contains accounts
from Naples, according to which General Nunziante,
after his defeat, had diet ted his junction with Grossi,
who had taken Filadelfia, and almost completely de-
stroyed it. Pizzo suffered the same fate ; and Monte-
leone, which bad submitted, was laid under an enor-
mous contribution. General Winspear has been sent
from Naples to take thecommand of the army, instead
of Nunziante; he had orders to go from Pizzo to
Paola, to unite the columns of Nunziante, Lanza, and
Busacca, and then to march upon Cooseoza.
The Pope has given the following answer, dated
the 10,h, to the address of the Council of Deputies :
We accept the expressions of gratitude addressed to us by
the council, and we have received the answer to the speech
delivered in our name by the cardinal expressly de-
legated by us to open the two councils, declaring that we
accept it only in so tar as it does not in any wise deport from
what is prescribed by the fundamental statute. It the pin-
ta puts up prayers, bestows benediction and pardon, it is
also his duty to bind and to loosen. And if as prince, with
the intent of better protecting and strengthening the public
goed, he has called two councils to co-operate with him, the
prince-priest has need of all the liberty requisite for pre-
serving his action from being paralysed when the interests of
religion and the state are in question. This liberty he pre-
serves intact so long as shall remain intact, as thy ought to
remain, the statute and the low on the council of ministers
wnich we have granted. If wishes for the aggrandisement
of the Italian nation become multiplied and great, it is neces-
sary that it should be again made known to the world,
but for us war cannot be a means for attainina that end.
Out name has been blessed throughout the earth fir the
words of peace which first came out of our mouth; it
most assuredly will no longer he so if the language of war
should now issue from us. It was, therefore, a great sur-
prise to us when we learned that this question was submitted
to the consideration of the council, in contradiction to our
public declarations, and at the very moment when we had
undertaken to negotiate for peace. Union between the
princes, and good harmony between the nations of the pe-
niosula, can alone realise that happiness to which we aspire.
This need of concord is such, that we ought to embrace
Equally all the princes of Italy, in order that from this
paternal embrace may spring that harmony which will bride
about tse accomplishment of the public desire. Respect for
the rights and laws of the church, and a persuasion which
must animate you that the special grandeur of this state de-
pends upon the independence of the sovereign Pontiff, will
so act upon you that in your deliberations you will always
respect the limits traced out by us in the statute. In this
will be manifested the gratitude we seek for the ample in-
stitutions granted by us. Your resolution to occupy your-
selves with our internal affairs is a noble one, and we exhort
poet with all our 150 to persevere in this undertaking. Com-
m rce and industry must be re-established, and it is our
most earnest desire, as we are confident it is also yours,
not to overburthen but to relieve the people. Public order
requires great resources, and to obtain them it is indispensa-
ble that the ministry should begin to devote to this its
thoughts and its cares. The public administration of the
finances demands the greatest and the mast minute precau-
tions. After these vital elements, the government will pro-
pose for the municipalities such ameliorations as it shall
think most useful, and most in conformity with present!
wants. To the church, and through it to his apostles, its
divine founder has given the great right, and imposed the
great duty of instruction. Be of accord among yourselves.,
with the high council with us and with our ministers. Call
frequently to mind that Rom is great, not from her tem-
poral dour in, but chiefly because she is the seat of the Catho.
lie religion. This is a truth which we do not wish to be
engraved en morble, but in the hearts of all who partieirde
in the public administration, in order that, each respecting
our universal primacy, no one msy give way to certain li-
=Rod theories, or even to party opinions. None who enter-
tain elevated sentiments of religion can think otherwise. If
you, as we believe, are penetrated with these truths, you
will become, in the hands of God, the noble instruments of
Insuring to Rome and to the state genuine and solid advan-
tage', the chief of which will be the extirpation of the seeds
of m'alrust and the disastrous leaven of party.
'1 he Milan Gaulle of the 15th states that M. Mo-
richini had returned from Ferrara, after a fruitless
mission to Inspruck and Vienna. The Emperor
of Austria declined all personal discussion, and the
minister at Vienna only gave evasive answers. We
therefore conclude that Austria is no', disposed to
acknowledge the independence of Italy.
L'Avrenire tr Italia, of the 15th, contains a report
of' the sitting of the parliament of Venice of the 4th,
in which the minister stated that the marine had
made the greatest efforts for the defence of a line of
about 70 miles. 327 pieces of artillery and 77 vestals
were in position to sustain the defence.
The works in the arsenal had been commenced on
a largo scale, and several bodies of civic guards, gen-
darmes, artillery, cavalry, and volunteers had been
organised. The city was secured against any sur-
prise, and there were 400 cannon mounted in the forte.

REVIEW OP TIIE HON. ARTILLERY COMPANY.—
His Rnyal Highness Prince Albert, colonel of the Hon.
Artillery Company, having expressed his intention to review
this corps, so kissed in the ancient records of London, the
companies assembled on the parade-ground in Finsbury, at
11 o'clock, cm• Upon the arrival of his royal highness, at
half-past 1 o'clock, p.m., a royal salute of 21 rounds was
fired from two six-pounder guns, the companies being
drawn up in line under their respective officers.
His royal highness, with the staff, then rode down
the line and up the rear, minutely inspecting the men end
their appointments, and then took up a position M the flag-
staff, and the companies, after marching past at slow and
quick time, went through the platoon exercises under the
command of Msjor Barnard. Lieutenant-Colonel Fitzroy
then assumed the command, and the companies went through
their various evolutions in a highly creditable manner,
moving in sub-divisions and double columns of sub-divisions,
and firing by companies from centre to flank, then by com-
panies and by vollies from the whole line. Advancing
then by open column of companies, they formed a square,
the front rank kneeling when firing. After various other
manoeuvres they formed in Hoe, and the Oaken were called
forward and addressed by his royal highness in very flatter-
ing terms on the excellent ap of the mops, and the
admirable manner in whi they advanced in lime, de-
ployed, and marched past in columns. His royal high-
ness afterwards inspected those recently joined No. 7 and 8
companies, who were put through the platoon exercises by
Serjeant-Major Hurls of the Coldstream Guards, and the
' prises 'speared himself mach pleased with their progress.
