European court& Ia der deep stab the minister
traces the rapid progress of lie tiltotation in the 1
kingdom of the Two Sicilia', and, while admitting
that the army was demoralised by pernicious doc-
trines and that treason had penetrated even to the
oourt and council, oontenda that the King would
have achieved a triumphal return to his capital had
not a "perjured and disloyal sovereign" intervened to
prevent it. At the present moment, as the resist-
ance of the fortresses of Gaeta and Messina neces-
sarily depends on a thousand circumstances, " it is
not probable," says the writer, "that this defence
will be as prolonged as the sovereigns of Europe
seem to wish." The despatch oontinuee

And when the fatal and inevitable hour of sturender has
came, our august sovereign, in the midst of the tears of his
faithful followers, and with that reaigoation, full of dig-
nity, which is a distinctive feature of b e octant family,
will denoted from his throne, and win. redect 11111 ► just '
and noble pride that he has not fa"ed to dimberge any awe
of his duties. It remains for the N ezemine now if
lib Majesty, in generously disarms' eg the debt which united
him to the other sovereigns, has meshed la return that
swim and those good OEM which he had the nght to
expect.
Sines, seven mouths ago, the revolution triumphed in
the kingdom, always openly favoured by a perjured and
perverse government, the King our master hes been able
to obtain nothing from the soversigns of Europe, to when
•he bogod that his ewes was dear, moepting some
useless expunges. of affeetimate sympathy. The grave
perils of a little army—the pressing wants of the royal
treasury—the audacious Maistim of the rights of nations—
the unlimited ambition of a revelation which will never
stop itself—all this was laid Won the gnat powers of
Ramps, and in each ease those who were appestat to would
only reply by advice or good wishes. Neither the in-
terests of the dynasties, nor the common lagers, nor
ancient friendthips wad oiliness, staked to dissuade
the European cabinets from that peaked in '
which they have shows in reminding inigemith at the fall of
a monarchy a hundred years old. The Emperor of the French
alone—and it is a duty incumbent upon no In junke and
gratitude to announce it--the &vow of the French aloes
gave the primes rumple of • desire to leave this state of
universal apathy. Loyal and menstehiall *gland dared
bftterly to reproach hint for tt, while the other cthinetu
allowed bins to tabs the sole tisk. is this magnanimovi en-
Wiwi% The despatiit of the trench fleet to the inters
of Gaeta, and the banned reoeptieu given to the filthful
and valorous remnants of the royal troops on the Pontifical
territory by the meridiem of Frame, are facie which will
remain for ever engraver on the bean of the ,King our
sovereign, and ter excised in value the protestations of
fitsodeldp offered to his Majesty by the rest of Emicire.
The King Ger @overate hoped, in the last *co, that
the meeting et Warsaw would bring about the ides of a
European magma, which ocruM alone put an sad to the
UMW Moises* al the force which conatorns end rake
all laws the most seared and venerable. To the new
principle of popular sovereignty, of which such a strange
abuse is made, should be opposed the ancient publis
right, which is the fruit of the wisdom and ethic, of
centuries, so that from the pacific discussion of these
opposite principles, and the impartial examicntipn of all
pretexts, a now odes of things might spring yp %ming
with the mid principles, and acceptable to the peoples re-
stored to wisdom and pesos. Failing the realisation of
ode vest ides there will never be pesos in Europe. Every
system which Huila itself to the overcoming of material
obstacles to existing interests, will open the way to the
revelation which has for its object the successive over-
feding of all thrones, Moe it delnehes 'Melt from that
great unity of principle which constitutes the safeguard of
thrones, the guanines of prom and the prosperity of
nations
These priociplee admitted, your excellency will easily
perceive what grief our august sovereign experienced when
he found that such a useful design was frustrated by the
conduct of the powers who considered before all, their private
rancour, and questions of a secondary importance, in place
of the groat principles of universal order and 'the security
of thrones.
Consequently, in the name of the King, I direct yea to
make know., the views which I hem eximeined to the
cabinet to whisk you ere inercilloi, aid if E: as
set e
e pled as we uderstead it, to demand formally of the
Minister of Fangs Allies the intestines of his governmeet
relative to the last and imminent Grins of the monarchy.
You will read and give a copy of this dispatch to the same
minister, and will carefully make know to me the result of
this communicatioo, which will enable the Sioig to pinkie

PARIS, THLRMDAT EVEMO.

Count de Persigny's circular to the preie;ts is
calculated to strengthen the hopes of those who
desire to accept the decree of November 24 as a
real andreeriatt fdatintre in a libeinTireniie.
the Constitutiorinel and Pays outbid each other in
toadyism, declare that nothing is changed, that the
constitution of 1852 is perfection, and that beyond
its pale all is temerity, anarchy, and utopia ;
while K Granier de Caessignac, that ill-omened
bird of the empire—whose name, as the /napes-
dance observe., is ever to be found subscribed to
the most unhappy retrograde doctrines—declares
that the prima has no business to have any opinion
on public affairs, for the notable reason that its
editors are not elected by universal suffrage (!);
the new Minister of the Interior inaugurates
his advent to office by the declaration that
the Emperor's intention is to "introduce amelio-
rations" which are a testimony of his confidence in
the country, that his wish is to prepare the country
for the noble and peaceable practice of " liberty,"
the " development" of which is the task devolving
upon the throne of Napoleon. This circular has
produced a very good effect. The Prase judi-
ciously says of it, that although it specifies no hope
'in particular, it encourages all. The concluding
part, in which the prefects are told that their zeal
and intelligence will shortly be tested by im-
portant political instructions, fairly bears the
construction that liberal measures consequent
upon the new policy dating from the decree
of November 24 will be propounded. It is
especially remarkable that M. de Persigny speaks
of the bygone years of the present empire as the
" first part" of the reign, evidently meaning to
infer, contrary to the Conatitotionon and Pays, [
I that we are now entering upon a new chapter.
This morning the Palais de Justice was thrown
[ into a state of extraordinary excitement, by the
news that a judge had been murdered in a railway
carriage. The sitting of the Imperial Court was
suspended, and the Procureur-General and the
Prooureur-Imperial proceeded to the Strasbourg
Railway station to inquire into the fact. It turned
oat that on the arrival of the train from
Mulhouse at 5 o'clock this morning, the
[ conductor who collected the tickets found
the body of K Poinaot, an eminent president of
the Imperial Court, lying across the hot-water
[ tubes of a first-class carriage, and bathed in blood.
M. Poinsot, who bad been to visit his estate at
Chsouree (Aube), got into the train at Troyes, and
had, as it is supposed, the amount of his half-
year's rents in his pockets. At all events, his purse
and his watch were gone, and there can be no
doubt that robbery was the motive fur the murder.
A lady who travelled by the train deposes that she
heard cries. It is thought that the assassin, who
got into the same carriage with M. Poinsot at a
point not known, must have jumped out at the
Noisy le See station neat Paris, where the train
slackened to take despatches, but without regularly
stopping. The Prease observes upon this ease-
trophe that the system adopted in Belgium and
Germany, by means of which any passenger may
stop the train, should be generally introduced.
The Bourse opened heavily, although the latest
news of the American crisis was oousidered to be
better. Uneasiness was felt at the state of affairs in
Hungary. The Bente, after dropping to 70fx. 40c.,
became better at the close, and left off at 70fr. 50c.
for nab, with a rise of 10c., and at 70fr. 55c. for
account, with a fall of Sc. Mobilier rose Mr. 75e.
In railways there was scarcely any change.
The eighteenth volume of M. Thiers' "History
of the Consulate and Empire " appeared yesterday.
It contains an account of the battle of Toulouse,
written with great Wrenn. The vexed question
as to which party had the best of it is now settled
even for Frenchmen. M. Thiers, though, of
course, accounting for the defeat with a national
bias, does not deny that the English won the battle.
He severely blames &lilt for having retreated
upon Carcassonne instead of holding his bound at
Toulouse, and taking advantage of the mistakes
which he considers to have been committed by
Marshal Bereaford. The two next and conclud-
ing volumes of this great work will comprise the
100 days, Waterloo, and St. Helena. They are ex-
pected to come out before the end of 1881.
As the Prince Imperial was taking his usual
airing, the day before yesterday, when near the
Rood Point in the Champs Mystics, the horses of
%Dern Le PaYs de Bonrjolly, whose carriage was
coming down the drive, took fright at the prince's
equipage, and became so restive that the drivers
had great difficulty in avoiding a collision. For-
tunately, a sergent de villa succeeded in stopping
the general's horses, one of which was rather
seriously lamed. The general, and two ladies who
accompanied him, escaped without injury.

KING VICTOR EMMA N UEL TO THE
SICILIANS.

The following proclamation has been published
at Palermo :

People of Sicily,—Mitts a heart deeply moved I set foot
on this illustrious isle, which formerly—an augury, as it
were, of the present destinies of Italy—bad fur its prince
one of my ancestors ; which in our own day elected for its
king my lamented brother ; and which to-day unanimously
191111.111011$ me to extend to it the benefits of living in freedom
and Rational unity.
Great things have been effected in a short time ; great
things remain to be done ; but I have faith that with the
aid of God, and of the virtue of the Italian people, we
shall accomplish our magnanimous undertaking.
The government which I come here to inaugurate R 21 be
a government of reparation and of concord. Sincerely
respecting relit it will preserve intact its ancient pre-
romitives, which are both an ornament to the Sicilian
church and a safeguard of the civil power ' • it will found an
administration which shell restore the moral principles of
a well-regulated society, which shall by unceasing mono-
mial' progress renew the productiveness of your shores, and
which shall thus render profitable to all, the gifts which
Providence has largely scattered over this privileged land.
Sicilians,—Your history is the history of great deeds and
generous aspirations ; now is the time for you, as for all the
Italians, to show to Europe that while we know how to
conquer independence and liberty by valour, we know on
the other hand how to preserve them by unanimity and the
civic virtues. Nihon EMMANUEL.
Palermo, Dec. 1.

Gaouss IN FRANCK—The Minister of the In-

Monsieur le Frefeot.,—Sevend dealer in game have sob-

The opera, which is in four acts, is founded on th.. s
known romance of Reigantino, the Bravo of i't.
the chief incidents of which are retained, th.,
the scene is changed to Milan. The libretto, by Mr.
grave Simpson, is not only elegantly written, bet ful
striking situations and opportunities for musical oiled,
which the composer has not failed to avail himself.
Louisa Pyne and Mr. Harriaon sustained the principal
raceere, and the " cast" embraced the whole sisengti

scenery, costumes, and decorations—were admifable ;
the whole performance was worthy of this greet theatrt
