AUSTRIAN INTERVENTION IN ITALY.
VIM OCR OWN COIL SPONDINT.)

PARIS, TCESDAY Evnirso.

The alarming rumours about the attitude of
Austria, referred to in my last three or four letters,
are reproduced to-day with an appearance of
authority. The Pays notices, as "latest news,"
the existence of a report that Count de Rechberg
has addressed a despatch to Turin, stating that the
Austrian government would feel itself compell.d
to send an armed force to succour the King of
Naples, and to obtain the Pope's permission for
this force to march through the Roman states, in
case Garibaldi should laud on the Neapolitan coast.
It adds that "this determination of the Austrian
government is supposed to be connected with pro-
mises obtained from the confederated German
states." The Patrie somewhat varies the story, and
oily expresses its belief that "if " Garibaldi shall
obtain possession of the kingdom of Naples and shall
there organise, as he has threatened to do, an ex-
pedition against the Austrian possessions in the
Adriatic, then and in that case Austria has declared
that she will not wait to be attacked, but will go
forward to meet the Garibaldiau troops in whatever
part of the peninsula they may be found. lam
disposed to think, however, that the French go-
vernment journals exaggerate the designs of Aus-
tria in Italy, and the degree of support which she
is warranted in expecting from Prussia and other
German states, with a view of operating upon
public opinion in England, and of working upon
the well-known sympathies of that country for the
Italian cause to beget distrust of Prussia, and to
tempt the English government to commit itself to

What says the Pays in a leading article
this very evening 1 "We cannot apprehend from
the state of affairs in Italy anything so considerable
as a disturbance of the peace of Europe. Nothing
is easier than to draw up plans, but the execution
of them is something very different. So long as
an accord subsists between France and England,
and we hope it may long endure, the inci-
dents of the Italian question will remain, unless
we are greatly mistaken, confined within the im-
penetrable fence of 'non-intervention." In pre-
cisely the same spirit the Opinion Nationale says :
—"The attitude of the Emperor Francis Joseph
should have the result of drawing closer the
bonds of the Anglo-French alliance. The two
grand western powers have sanctioned the prin-
ciple of non-intervention. Both at London
and Paris the independence of the peninsula
is desired, and the divergency bears only
upon secondary points. The time seems therefore
to have arrived for forgetting all the excitement of
a dangerous rivalry, and coming to au irresistible
agreement for the settlement both of the affairs of
Italy and of those of the East. These two ques-
tions are now connected, for England, if she were
to take a different line from us, might perhaps im-
pose upon us the necessity of seeking the Russian
alliance, whereas the interests of the two countries,
rightly understood, should draw us together in
18110 as they did in 1853. We hope this will be
understood and felt on the other side of the
Channel."

From the beat information I can collect, I think
it may be safely Raid that Austrian intervention
in Italy is not by any means so imminent
as the paragraph in the Pays would infer.
It it. doubtful whether any official note of Count
Rechberg exists, though it is more than probable
that communications of a confidential nature have
been made to the cabinet of Turin, which are to a
certain extent threatening. It is inferred from a
Naples telegram, that something must have
occurred to inspire the King and the reactionary
party with coulidence, since three newspapers have
been suppressed, and there is a talk of adjounting
the elections. If the latter news should be true,

it amounts to a prac.ical abolition of the constitu-
tion. It may with more reason be construe las s
sign of weakness than of conscious strength. It
being known to a certainty that the electors would
return a chamber whose first act would be to
declare for Victor Emmanuel, the King probably
hopes to postpone his fate by this dilatory measure.
But Garibaldi will assuredly construe it as not
merely a delay, but a denial of the people's rights,
and will not long postpone his invasion. The ab.
surd statement of the Patric last night that a
Piedmontese army was to be sent to Naples to
keep out Garibaldi is altogether discredited.
The Bourse was a little better than yesterday.
The Bente rose 15c. for cash and 10c. for acoutut,
closing at 68fr. be. and 68fr. Mobilier rose 21r.
There was scarcely any change in railways.
The extraordinary rains—more like those of the
tropics than anything commonly seen in the,e lati-
tudes—have put a stop to the grand mameuvres at
the Chalons camp, and the Emperor is coming to St.
Cloud to-morrow, which is sooner by some dap;
than was expected. He will consequently be in
the neighbourhood of Paris on his fête day.
M. Plocque, who has enjoyed the distinguished
honour of being Wtonnier of the order of advocate,
during two succesaive years, resigned his isitm yester-
day into the hands of his successor, M. Jules Favre,
to whom, in a farewell speech, he paid a very high
compliment, which was hailed with tremendous
applause by a crowded meeting of the bar.

_NAPLES, AUGUST 7.

The steamer came in from Messina this evening,
and brings intelligence up to August 6.
The Carlo Alberto, 60 guns, arrived in port
on the sth, and she, together with the Gover-
nolo, it is said, will prevent the Neapolitan
cruisers from interfering with the expedition
which Garibaldi intends to make into Calabria.
Very strong fortifications are established at the
Faro point commanding the entrance to the
&mite of Messina, and the fort of Scilla on the
other side. About 40 gnus of different ca-
libre are put in favourable positions so as
to prevent the Neapolitan cruisers from interfering,
and to protect the landing of Garibaldi's
troops at the same time. The garrison in
the city and at the Faro amounts to about 20,000
men. Many others are expected to arrive. The
whole Neapolitan force in the citadel is reduced to
, about 4,000 men. On Saturday three small
steamers arrived from Palermo under national
colours, and landed, in sight of the citadel and the
Neapolitan ports on the neutral ground, about
1,206 men, commanded by a priest, who is the
colonel of the regiment ; and on Saturday last the
French consul had an interview with General
Clary, to learn his intentions regarding hostilities
against Messina. General Clary declared that
whenever Garibaldi made a move to pass into
Calabria he would fire in every direction where he
could descry any of Garibaldi's forces, and that, if
necessary, he would fire on the city without
notice. The English consul also bad an interview
with Clary, who not only confirmed the same,
but added that in half an hour after the first move
of Garibaldi's army he would be in the centre of
the city with his troops. Clary assured the
consul that he would use every means to
secure victory to the army under his
command. Yesterday afternoon, the celebrated
Gaya:xi—once &catholic priest, now a protestant—
made a long speech in the square before the Senate
House, where the statues of Ferdinand IL used to
stand, and called the Sicilians to arms. He told
them that the illumination of their houses, and
the putting out flags from their windows, signi-
fied nothing ; it was money and men that Garibaldi
wanted to drive the Bourbons out of Naples, the
Pope out of Rome, and the Austrians out of Venice
and Hungary, &c. the. Prince Palco had his
surrounded last night ; he was arrested and
Cirl•lt°l3 undor a strong guard. It is rumoured that
his palace and the adjoining church and convent
(once) of the Jesuits are full of arms, and that
papers were found in his possession unfavourable
to the present state of things.

SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY OP PORTUGAL.
(THIS DAY.)

This day a special general meeting of the share-
hoiden of this company, formed under the Limited Liability
Act, was held at their temporary offices, 17, Gnicechurel-
street, to consider some proposed alterations in the articles
of association.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors (Mr. NOMAD)
prodded. He explained that the committee of the Stock
Exchange bad taken objection to one or two of the
original articles, and particularly to that one by which the
four ronremionnairo of the line were to be directors
for life, and also the appointment of the auditory until the
first ordinary meeting of shareholders. The directors,
concurring with these objections, had prepared resolutions
to alter the deed in those particulars. The auditor had
placed hie appointment at their disposal, and the conces-
sionaires not only bad at once agreed to hold their seats at
the board by election, subject to the same conditions es
the other directors, but they had gone farther, and
would postpone the yearly allowances to be mad, to them
until the time when 7 per cent interest should be
paid on the shares of elm B. For their services
as directors they would not receive any remune-
ration at present.
The resolutions authorising these changes in the deed of
partnership were seconded by Mr. Townsend, awl unani-
mously agreed to after a abort conversation, in which Mr.
Chapman, Mr. Hu ins, and Mr. Sutton took part, as well
MI Mr. Knowles, of Lisbon, who gave a very satisfactory
account of the proapeete of the line as guaranteed by the
Portugomie government.

CORK AND KINSALE RAILWAY.(ZIIIS DAY.)

This afternoon the ordinary half yearly meeting
of the above railway was held at the offices in Griarechureb-
street ; Lord KIMIALE in the chair. The report of the
directors, which was read by Mr. Wood, the secretary, stated
that four miles of the line commencing with the junction
with the Cork and Minden railway, were completed, and
ready to receive the permanent way; that the greater por-
tion of the lands near Kinsale had been arranged for
and that the works on that part of the line
were proceeding vigorously. The directors had considered
the desirability of extending a hue more immediately into
Kinsale, sod connecting it with the harbour. The esti-
mated coat of the extension would be 4,0001., and the Demi
Nay steps would be taken for carrying it out. Every exer-
tion would be made to open the line throughout for
pleasure and excursion traffic by the next summer, to
effect which it would be necessary to cell up the remain-
ing capital before the next spiing. The total receipts were
rebzud rt.e at 19expenditure ,010/., and the at 14,346/, 'the
in hand being 4,663/.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report.
congratulated the meeting upon the satisfactory position of
the company.
Sir C. ERNST seconded the motion ; and, having beer
over the works during the last wee:, spoke as to their
general efficiency and the economy with which they la
been constructed. He had DO doubt the line would le
opened for traffic next summer.
The report was adopted, and the usual vote of thanks to
the chairman concluded the proceedings.
