FDANos AND ITALY. —The French ambassador at
Florence is said to have made himself extremely obnoxious
of late to Italian society, and to public opinion generally
in that capital, by his overbearing and violent language
respecting the cession of Venetia to France, and the duty
of Italy towards the Emperor Napoleon. Baron Malaret
is said, in some private letters, to have betrayed, by his

irreparable breach between France and Italy.
FRENCH INTERVENTION IN GERMANY.—The
Suabialt Mercury nays :—" We do not wish to reproach
the Emperor Francis Joseph for having sought assistance
where be was sure to find it after the battle which has
shaken his empire. But he cannot hope that his allies,
whom he did pot sonault before taking such an important
step, will follow him in this path. The appeal mad* to
France has, to say the truth, completely modified
the situation in Germany. The intervention of
the foreigner has become a vital question, which
casts all other questions into the shade. Our
interest and our honour compel us to reject this In.
invention ; herwover great may have been the differences
of opinion in Germany at the commencement of the
present complications, we were all agreed upon one point,
that the country was raised above parties, and that any
elution was to be preferred to a peace dictated by Frame.
May peace be promptly re-estabhahed by reciprocal con•
sessions, and upon the basis of the parliament proposal.
Were France to stretch her hand towards the Rhine, mho
would find all Germany against her." •
