The theatre of the Royal Aoademy of Music (the
Grand Opera) has jest undergoes a complete xenon-
strewn= in its interior, and bas beet newly deco-
rated, at a cost of 140,000 francs. It will be re-
opened in the coarse of the next week.

We have received the letters and journals of
Madrid, including the letter of our own correspondent
of the 27th ult. Narvaez arrived in that city on the
morning of the 27th, at 9 o'clock, and had immediate
conferences with the ministers Pacheco, Benavidee,
and Bahamonde. He was to have been received by
the Queen at 4 in the afternoon. No doubt was
entertained that it would be announced on or before
the following morning that he was authorised by her
Majesty to form a cabinet. It was reported that all
the ministers had, on leaving their offices on the
afternoon of the 27th, bid adieu to their subordinates,
and it was expected that all would retire. As to the
new cabinet, all was uncertainty. It was considered
certain that M. Pacheco would accept an embassy,
and that of Rome was named. El Faro gives the
following names as likely to hold places in the new
cabinet : Donoso Corte', Pidal, Avracola, San Louis,
Orlando, Santillon, Olivan, Roca de Togoree, Sejas,
Rios Rosas, Benavides, and Mazzaredo.
Terrible hurricanes had devastated parts of the
provinces of Palencia, Valencia, and Zamora. The
harvests were almost entirely destroyed.

Letters from Turin of the 27th alt. bring intelli-
gence of much interest and importance, the confirma-
don of which will be looked for with solicitude. Ac-
cording to this information, supplied by a private
letter received in Paris, and declared to proceed from
authentic sources, Prince Metternich has lately sent a
eirouler note to the Italian governments containing
"roles and instructions for the maintenance of
peace" in the peninsula. King Charles Albert was
deeply indignant at this interference with the hide.
pendence of the Italian states, and returned an ener-
getic and spirited reproof in reply to it. In the same
circular Prince Metternich put forth a demand to
establish an Austrian garrison in the fortress of
Alessandria. It was precisely at this epoch that the
military occupation of Ferrara took piece. This gave
occasion to the King of Sardinia to make a solemn
protestation " against foreign intervention in any
state whatever of Italy." Ile thereupon, as we for-
merly mentioned, made a formal offer to the sove-
reign pontiff to place at the disposal of his holiness
all the forces of Sardinia, both military and naval.
The circulation of this news throughout Sardinia
excited universal enthusiasm, which was manifested
by the army as strongly as by the people. The army
is represented as being more than ever pervaded by
an anti-Austrian spirit. A report prevailed at Turin,
that the Sardinian cabinet had given its adhesion to
the alliance formed by England with Wirtemberg,
Bavaria, and Baden, to oppose foreign intervention
in Switzerland. This explains the fact mentioned in
these advioes, that while the English minister, Mr.
Abercrombie, lauds the noble and energetic conduct
of the King of Sardinia, the French ambassador,
Count Mortier, openly blames it, and denounces,
on every occasion, the people and princes of Italy.
It is added that the Pope, encouraged by the
support promised by the King of Sardinia, has stated
to the representatives of the powers at Rome that he
does not desire foreign aid, that he has ordered
Ancona and Civita Vecchia to be provisioned for three
months, and to be put into a condition to resist any
surprise.
Ia Revue des Deus Mandes, a journal always
hitherto reputed as a semi-official organ of the Ouirst
cabinet, unexpectedly sounded a note on Wednesday
altogether out of harmony with the Journal des
Dhliats, in regard to the Italian question. The Revue
does not hesitate to take Austria to task for the
Ferrara affair, and speaks in unqualified terms of the
liberal movement in the states of the church, of Pied-
mont, and of Tuecany. The only chord on which it
harmonises with the Debuts, is in its rage at the pros-
pect of England taking part with the cause of pro-
gress in the peninsula, and warns the Italians against
oar selfish and sordid views. It is not, according to
La Revue, the development of liberty we seek,
but that of our commerce—not the independence
of the Sovereign Pontiff, bat his aid in pacify-
ing Ireland—not the repression of Austrian ag-
gression, but the free passage for our Indian mail
through Italy! " Behold," concludes this sagacious
journal, " many reasons why Italy should distrust the
disinterestedness of England, and rely en that of
France." La Revue affirms that the diplomatic note
of Charles Albert, protesting against the aggression
of Ferrara, was not transmitted, but that, neverthe-
less, "in a letter addressed to a personage distin-
guished by his liberal principles, the King of Sardinia
declared formally against the occupation of Ferrara,
and repeated the same sentiments in the presence of
several members of the diplomatic corps at Turin, in-
cluding the nuncio, to whom he then signified the i
offer of aid," already mentioned. The King of Pied-
mont is erapported in these liberal views by M. Villa-
=Tim his minister of war, and the Duke of Savoy.
ihs sews of the adhesion of the cabinet of Turin
la do policy of the Pope, which was received in
Some on the night of the 22nd, diffused there the
most unbounded joy. On the 23rd the Sardinian mi-
nister, the Marquis Pareto, had a conference of two
hours with his holiness. On visiting the university,
the Pope addressed the students, calling them the
hopes and support of the country, exhorting them to
CIMMORII in their studies, and repeating his panaiso
in spite of all resistance m a cams et
enliTtsevneercel and progressive reform.
The Italia, in a supplement, gives the following
from Bologna, August 23:
The universal desire of the citizens has been acceded to.
The pope _prepares for defence. Troops constantly arrive,
and are distributed in three points of observation,- one as
the defile of St. Gallo, by the Reno, on the road from Bo-
logna to Ferran; the second at Castel Franco, between
Bologna and Modena; the last at the defile of Banta, by the
Reno, near Argenta. Forli and Ancona are two more
centnn of operation. for the concentration of troops, forming
a line of observation along the Adriatic. AU the interme-
diate towns between Bologna and the two former ars de-
fended by the National Guard, already in active service,
and inspired with the greatest enthusiasm.

Carlin, in the last war, and was now earning his bread
quietly by honest labour, The alcalde seised has a large
manufactory in the town, which employs a great number of
the poor inhabitants, who will be now left to starve, as the
factory is closed. The ayuntamiento of San Quintin has
fled, threatened with death by the rebels if they rang the
I.OCI/11, and by General Pavia if they did not. The town-
councillors of Villa Franca, like those of Sea Pedro de Rio-
' devillos, have been seised and transported to the Balearic
isle of Cabrera. How is it possible, under such a truly in-
fernal system of persecution, that the rebellion should not
daily gain head? Accordingly, we see that three parties have
just entered from France,amounting•in all to 170, through
Huria. At Tarragona it was said that the rebels had
just received 700 muskets out of France. On the evening
of the 21st, a band, amounting to 3-50 men, marched
out of San Vincente de Callers (near Vendrell)
under the command of Cabecilla Toffee, who posted up a
proclamation in Catalan in the villages through which he
passed. Five miles on the Catalonian side of Frogs, at 11
on the night of the 22nd, the Madrid diligence coming from
Barcelona was stopped by some Cellists, and the passengers
robbed of 200 doubloons. In the town of Frogs there were
94 soldiers at the time, smoking or sleeping in the fort, and
16 troopers, who galloped out of the gates in the opposite
direction, four rebels having diverted their attention from
their comrades by attacking a horseman, who gave the alarm.
The military commander, upon learning the robberies,
ordered the alcalde to keep patrols of the Citizen' on the
look out.
General Pavia has had the alcaMe of Pantile shot for not
giving notice to the government of the passage of a party of
rebels. Cromwell in Ireland was a lamb compared to Pavia
in Catalonia. His insane barbarity looks as if he wanted to
take vengeance on the defenceless population for his defeats
by the rebels. If such a spectacle of savage and impotent
cruelty as General Fevre,' government has exhibited in
Catalonia had been shown by any pacha from Yanina to
Bagdad, the Porte would have sent him a bowstring in mere
compliment to the diplomatic gentlemen at Para.
A letter in the Clamor from Ayamonte, dated 20th, states

Senor Buschenthal has arrived at Madrid within the last

bullion required for his patron, a little riding.whip as a pre-
sent from the Duchess of Moutpensier to the Queen, the
workmanship of whose handle is elaborately described by
the ingenious editors of the go€etillas.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aco. 18.
By the French steamer which arrived here on the
14th met. the Turkish government received despatches from
Athens, which appear to be of a very. unsatisfactory nature.
The day before yesterday all the ministers of the Porte as-
sembled in the horse of the grand vizier at Battaliman.
The Turco-Greek question was the ',object of discussion, and
the final decision come to was, to employ coercive measures
for the purpose of forcing the Athenian cabinet to accord the
satisfaction demanded by the Porte for the insult offered to
its envoy, M. Museums. The despatches received at the Porte
on the 14th inst. prove beyond doubt that M. Coletti is de-
termined to adhere to the terms contained in the letter of M.
Prokish to Count Sturmer, which arrived here in the Austrian
war steamer Volcano about a month since. You will remember
that the letter of M. Pmkish war a detail of an interview he
had had with M. Coletti oa the subject of the difference ex-
isting between the Turkish and Greek cabinets, from which
it appeared that M. Coletti refused to make an apology for
what had faked place at the King's ball, in the month of
January; but that, at the same time, he would have no
objection to receive M. Mussurus, or any other person the
Porte might think fit to send to Athens as its representative.
It is quite natural that the patience of the Turkish cabinet
should be worn out. AU their attempts at reconciliation
have been rejected; even their last humiliating con-
cessiorui have been treated with contempt. They
have, therefore, determined to employ the only arguments
which M. Coletti seems able br willing to understand.
The coasting trade has been suspended, and on the 15th inst.
the Turkish fleet, consisting of seven ships of the line, with
frigates and corvettes, in all amounting to sixteen sail, sailed
from the Golden Horn. They will at first simply make a de-
monstration on the coast of Greece, and the turn of affairs at
Constantinople will decide their subsequent movements. It
is supposed that Lord Cowley has received instructions from
his government to encourage the Porte to adopt coercive
measures. _ .

News bee been received from Albania, which prove that
province to be still in a state of revolt. When the Oriental
Company's steamer arrived at Avlona with the reinforce-
ments of troops sent from Constantinople, all the inhabitants
of the district were in arms against the Sultan. When the
troops were landed the rebels retired to the mountains; but
it was evident, at the time the steamer left, that they were
preparing to make a descent.
Since writing the above, I learn that the coercive meunres
towards Greece are being carried cut in earnest. Instruc-
tions have been sent to the pashas of the different districts
throughout the empire where Greek consols reside to with-
draw from the latter their exequaturs, but to permit them to
remain in the country, should they wish to do so, as private
individuals. Greek subjects throughout the empire are to
be taken under the protection of the governors of the
peehalica which they inhabit, and are to be treated in every
respect se rayahs, without, however, being fornecl to adopt
I the esstame. In one month from the date ef the with-
drawn of the exequaturs the coasting trade with Greece
will be forbidden. These coercive measures the Turkish go-
vernment have repeatedly threatened to put in force,
but they have been as often overruled by some of
the representatives of the foreign powers. M. Coletti's
sentiments an now, however, too apparent to ad-
mit the slightest hope of establishing an amicable
unclerstandli between the two cabinets by continuing a
eandliatery lie of policy. You will remember that Coletti
nine ee neheims Ali Effendi, the minister of foreign
Milk apsiseles to M. Mummies, in his name, for the m-
eat Mint die bake had received at the King's ball, simply
on M nd tarn each a proceeding had not been recom-
aleatlad Prime Metternich, but implied that if it should
be approved of the chief-of the Austrian cabinet he
would have se two to comply. M. Coletti has since
received M. de 's opinion on the demand of Ali
Effendi, wide is air* to favour of the Porte. As I
had foreseen. =an thee a moth since, the appeal to Prince
Metternich le bet a nee the part of Coletti, for,
now that all subterf Is ha ugeshows as much con-
tempt for the advice el the ehleet as for the de-
mands ones Porte. It is uniseteed that Lord Cowley,

the affair of Roeemond de Basunlion, accused of perjury.
The court has annulled the preliminary proceedings insti-

this law-officer, who was not one of the judges composing
the court of arises, was not competent. The court has
nevertheless maintained the warrant of arrest issued by the
president against the accused, and his authorised the Pro-
cureur.Genetal to institute new proceedings by a competent

BELGIUM.—B6IOIBELO, AUG. 30.—The committee
of Mayence, which is now sitting, aad is occupied with
divers questions relative to the navigation of the Rhine, has
already arrived at a concluoion upon several poiate. The
agreement of Holland having been obtained, the toll on
empty vowels is entirely taken off. This is a matter of
much interest to Antwerp, and will doubtless help to realise
the project of a system of tonnage between our commercial
metropolis aad the Rhine. The exemption from all duty
which was granted during the provision crisis at the com-
mencement of the year, and which was to have ceased CO
the Ist of September, was prorogued to the Ist of October.
The French commitrioni r proposed a new prorogation till
the let of January. 1848, which the other commissioners
agreed to ad referendum. The Dutch and French governments
desire the diminution of the tolls of the Rhine, but Prussia
is on this great question inclined to the side of those states
which border the Rhine, since it regards the question in a
twofold point of view,—its fiscal interests and the coin.
mercial interests of Cologne. Another question also is
likely seriously to occupy this committee, viz., an indemnity
claimed for corn destined for France, in transit through
Bavaria, and which was seized in this latter country by
virtue of a decree which prohibits the export of grim.
This cern came from the grand duchy of Hesse, and had
been exported at a time when the grand ducal government
had interdicted the export of corn. Bavaria contends that
the prohibition of exportation, which it had pub-
lished, concerned all the states which are members of
the Zollverein, who were reciprocally bound by en.
gagements among themselves, and that, consequently,
the prohibition extended as much to corn sent from the grand
duchy of Hesse, as to that coming from Bavaria itself.
The French government refuses to recognise these engage.
vents, which are posterior to the treaty constituting the
Rhenish association, and maintains that any measuremeaau
adopted by one of the Rhenish provinces can in no wise
affect others without their previous concurrence. Now it
was not till after the seis are of this disputed corn, that the
grand duchy of Hesse and the German states followed the
example of Bavaria in what concerned the exportation of
corn. The French government makes this affair a matter of
principle, far more than a question of money, for the in-
demnity claimed does not amount to more than 14,000 franca
Should the committee not give a favourable decision, France
has 'signified her intention of calling iu Austria an an arta-
teeter.

ITALY.-DISCOVERY OF A VEIN OF IRON,-
Rome, Alto. 21.—Mr. Felix Gauthier, a French engineer,
director of the iron foundry at Terni, believing he had found
in 1645, in the environs of Monte Nero, certain indications
of an iron mine, hu been incessantly occupied since that
period in finding means of discovering it. His endeavours
have just been crowned with success. lie has discovered a
vein which extends from Monte Nero to the town of Guido
Tadini, and which appears to be a very rich one. Ihe ore
which composes it produces 60 per cent. of pure iron, of an
excellent quality. The vicinity contains numerous springs
of water, which will facilitate the working of the machines
necessary for the spuration of the ore. This new vein of
iron, and that of Tolle, will suffice to furnish all the iron
that the Roman states may stand in need of, including those
quantities required for iron bridges and the projected rail-
wart—Delves.
NAPLES, AUG. 16.—Though government has issued
orders to several bodies of the troops to be in readiness to
march at a minute's warning, no considerable movement
has yet taken place in the direction of the HOMED frontiers.
Reinforcemente have merely been sent to some localities of
the Abruzzi. It is announced that a decree will be shortly
published which will exempt all functionaries whore sala7

pay. It is a proof we are on the way of progress.—Gosege

GERMANY.—PRUSSIA.—BERLIN, Ann. 28.
Pouse TxtaLs.—After the cases of two more prisoners had
been gone into, the counsel for the crown addressed the
bench, calling upon the judges to flod the prisoners guilty,
but trusting that they might find them guilty only of so
much of the charges as would warrant an exemplary punish-
ment.
CRACOW.—Trade is completely paralysed with
us. The public mind is a prey to suspicion and di,trust,
and the future appears uncertain. In present circumstances
the suppression of the Prussian post is a serious event ; for,
as long as it was in existence, we were still enabled to keep
up our intercourse, and we had grounded our best hops
upon it. The peasantry is equally discontented, and an ex.
plosion is to be dreaded, should the conscription be set in
vigour. We receive news from Poland, which speaks of
fresh conspiracies, a report which seems confirmed by several
arreatations which have recently taken place on our frontier.

HERALDIC Homotms.—The following royal orrionnanoe
has just been published:—" We, Lewis, King of Bavaria,

;;WiTgerventii. -
What was the name of this under governess f —At first
there era Mdlle. Belloyer, who remained about six months,
and afterwards Maitre Louse who remained about a year.
It is impossible for me to tell you what has become of these
young ladies.
How long is it since theme under governesses quitted the
house of the Duke de Prealin I—About three years.
The information which we have already received has ap-
prised us that fora long period you have had to reproach your-
self with grave injuries which you have done towards the.
Duchess de Prealin. You had not for her that regard and
deference which you ought to have had ; and have you not
sought to alienate from her the affection of her hus-
band and that of her children ?—No, air ; never, never.
When I entered into the house of the Due de Praa-
lie things were already on a very bad footing. The
duke wished alone to direct the education of his chil-
dren, and madame the duchess herself stated this to
me. I had on this point a long conversation with her, in
which she told me that it would be to the duke only that 1
should hove to render an account. The duke also said as
much to me, and that they had already had three or four
successive governesses, with whom the Duchess de Praslin
had not been able to agree. M. de Fresno told me that I
should eat alone with the children; that I should live alone
with them in a portion of the hotel ; and that they
might only see their mother. I answered to the duke that it
was impossible for me to agree to those propositions and
that I could not engage myself. It was then agreed that we
should cat with the parents, but that the children should
remain under my tutelage and wider my exclusive direc-
tion. The former governess, whom I replaced, and who
remained in the house, crested towards me difficulties of
every description, and above all with respect to the duchess
and she is one of those who since that time have pretended
that I alienated the feelings of the children from their
mother. Some time after my engagement I went to the
Chateau de Vandreuil alone with the Duchess de Praslin.
She then wished to take part in the lessons and in the direc-
tion of the studies of her eight children. The results were
not happy, and, when the Duke de Prsalin knew of it, be
was very diecontented ; he expressed his dissatisfaction to
the duchess, who abetsined from being present for the
future. We then established ourselves at Chistean de Pres-
lin, where, with the exception of the meals, we lived com-
pletely apart. I never sought, in this extraordinary pad-
lion, to alienate the children from their mother. But there
existed between the duke sad duchess relations which it eras
not in my power to put an end to. I, perhaps, was very
wrong in accepting such a position, but I never voluntarily
sought to injure Madame de Praslin. If sometimes I have
=awned her with vivacity, it is because I have been wounded
myself in a cruel manner.
What were the motives of dissension of which you speak,
and which existed between the Duke and Duchess de Pres-
?—lt was the desire on the part of Madame the Duchess
de Praslin to domineer over her children, and, above all,
over her husband ; and on the part of M. de Praslin • de-
cided resistance, but accompanied by much moderation.
Might not your intimacy in the family inspire the Duchess
de Pradin with sentiments of jealousy unhappily too well
founded I—Sometimes the Duchess de Prulin has expressed
with regard to me sentiments of jealousy which had not
the least foundation in the world. Under other circum-
stances her conduct was perfectly agreeable, without being
affected, and it was of a nature to make. me forget her in-
justice. I had no fortune, no friend in Paris, and I wished
to preserve the position which I held with so much more re-
signation as the duke bad told me that he would give me a
pension if I kid the essrege—those were the expressions
which he used—to OW& die education of his three eldest
daughters, notwithellemding the degree of disgust which the
circumstances attending this education might occasion me.
The pension of which you speak was a part of the first ar-
rangement entered into between you and the Due de Pras-
lin ?—No, sir; there had been no other question but the
ars2llal
Did the 1 uke fix the amount of this pension ?—No, sir ;
bat I always calculated that it would he a pension of 500 f.
ibr each of his daughters, or 1,5001. (or the three eldest ; and
I believed that such were his formal intentions, after the con-
versations which we had together on this subject.
It is certain, above all, that during the last few months,
the Duchess de Pnalin conceived towards you a very lively
• jealousy, and that she doubted no longer of the intimate re-
ligion' which she had supposed existed between you and her
husband ?—No, air, never ! The Duchess de Predin never
expressed to me such opinions ; she his been able to express
them of others. It is about two years since I went with the
Due de Praslin and his daughter to one of the proper-
ties of Marshal Sebastiani, in Corsica, when there ap-
radin • journal • calumnious article, importing that
hadre eloped with the Due de Paulin. When this article
come to my knowledge I wished instantly to quit the house.
Marshal Stbastiani, the father of the duchess, was the first
to oppose this; he told me that to form a determination of
this kind at such a moment would give force to the rumours,
which would fall of themselves, since they were not founded
in truth. Madame de Paulin then menifeeted towards me
much coldness and repulsion on the subject of my detesmi-
nation to leave but since, these feelings had been much
weakened, for I found, above all, for a year that she was full
of benevolence with regard to me. I was then pea reedy thun-
derstruck when, about two months ago, the Abbe (dullard
said to me that my presence was a cause of trouble in the
house, and that I could not remain.
We have before um aletter (printed below) without date and
without signature, and which appears ton to have been ad-
dressed to you at a comparatively recent period by the Duchess
de Praha, in which she said to you, if it is forbidden us to
retire to rest without being reconciled with our neighbour,
it seemed to her that the return of • new year was • stronger
raison to put an end to all dimensions and to forget past
griefs. She said that she heartily tendered to you her hand,
and demanded forgetfulness of the past on your part, as
she intended it en her part, so that you might live for the
Ware on a good understanding with her. At this period of
New Year's.day did them exist between you any subjects of
eenpleint I—That letter was not written to me in the month
ef Jemmy last, but in the month of January, 1846. She
ratite me than, with a bracelet, which she gave to ins for
. a asw year's gift. Prerrioualv to this period, and without

I went with them to a dentist, where both had to un-
dergo some operations. The duke then joined us, and I ac-
companied them in 'coach to the terminus of the railroad

selves, and afterwards promenaded in the garde d the
