LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

A despatch from Berlin states that Count Orloff
has made known at St. Petersburg that a definite
understanding has been come to on the fifth point,
and that, thanks to the instructions brought by M.
de &kegstoff, peace is essared. Some special de-
liberations, which are to take place between Russia
and Turkey, have been reserved. Preparations are
being made at Moscow for the coronation of the
Emperor, which will take place after the conclusion
of pew.

The invitation addressed to Prussia by the Con-
gress appears to be more particularly grounded= the
motive that the Conference of Paris is about to com-
mence the discussion of the treaty of the Duda-
nellee of 1841.

A telegraphic despatch from St. Petersburg states
that the special negotiations set ea foot betwees
Ramis and Turkey exercise no influence apoa the
marsh of the Conferences.

THE MIXED SCHOOLS AT CALMS.

The Bishop of Arru, whose " confidential circular
to his clergy, condemning the mixed schools of Calais
and other towns, has lately excited much discussion,
now publishes a " pastoral" in which he explains his
former sot sad establishes a distinction between a
passive and an active consent given to heresy. His
words are :

Be pleased to remark, thee, oar dearly beloved brethren, I
that there are two species of 00-operation for evil—the one
without intent and passive, which a man may allow in
kismet( for strong reasons, since it is not by his wag that
the evil is effected ; the other active and formal, which is la
every cam blameable, especially when its 'aflame incites the
forbidden action. In the former ow, the individual abstains
from 'travesties the mischief, sad it is evident that he may
often abstain from it. In the latter case he contributes to
pat it in operatioo, sad it is that which is not permitted.
Thus, let a cetholla master leave his protestant pupils to
perform personally the practice& of their worship, this
is on his part only a passive co-operation, and if
?base particular practises involve no appreciable
spiritual detriment to anyone, the catholic master
may properly not be bound to prohibit them, even I. his
lease. But should the meter employ his authcrity to in-
duce these same pupils to perform the ezersiset referred to,
constrain them to their performance by regulations, or en-
courage by rewards, if he should guide them thereto as to
a duty, that would be an active and formal co-operation,
sad It is that we cannot allow him, because t►at would be a
castradictioa of his own psnuaaion, a formal scandal to
eetholie coaverts, and an open proleptic's of iadiffertutiam
Now, what does this prohibitien contain which is cm
trary to the liberty of protestant families ? How can those
families lied themselves badly elf, in that the eatholie
master declines to rejoin sou opposed to catholicism ? and
what co-Mince could they have in him, if he looked at in
the same light, trusted with the same esteem, and pre-
scribed in the same manner, doctrines the mart contrary,
practices the most iscompatible—religione, in ace, which
weld not equally plisse him, salsas he himself had lame ?

"Colonel Bartolomei, who was sent by General
Mouravieff to the Shah of Persia, in company with
the Ambassador charged to announce to the Persian
Prince Use mosaics' of the Emperor to the Throne—
has returned here from Teheran, by Tiflis, where he
stopped some time. He has been received by the

" According to this officer, Persia is in such a state

together a synod of Austrian bishops, without taking
any notice of the convocation already made by the
Emperor. The result of this sitting has been to
despatch to Rome the Imperial Councillor Hoffmann.
The number of antagonists to the concordat increases
daily, and amongst the most important of these is M.

Council just spoken of he stated without hesitation
that the execution of the concordat rendered the
realisation of his plans of reform more difficult.
After the Council, he went to Cardinal Rustler,

PREPARATIONS OF RUSSIA TO SUPPORT
PERSIA AGAINST ENGLAND.

The following appears in the Warsaw journal,
The Gas, of the 30th ult.:

" While England, with much noise and ostenta-
tion, prepares an expedition against Persia, Russia
—unostentationsly and noiseleuly—is getting ready to
oome to the succour of the Shah. The Orembourg corps
d'armfie has been considerably reinforced. It is com-
manded by Aide•ds•Camp General Perowski. The
outposts of this corps extend to the very limits of
the country of Turin, upon the rivers Oxtus and
Jaxartes ; and the military flotilla of the Lake of
Aral placed under the orders of the same
general is brought, by the above•mentioned riven
to the frontiers of India. On another side, great
activity reigns upon the Caspian Sea, and in the army
of the Caucasus. Transport vowels having troops
and war material on board, pass incessantly between
Astrakhan and the port of Bakou, situated in the
province of Schirven, bordering on the ,Caspian Sea,
belonging to Russia, and at the frontier of Persia.
The new Lieutenant• General of the Caucasian pro•
vines*, Prince Bariatynski, has received fuller
powers than his predecessors. He has lately
inspected, on its way to its destination,
the flotilla of the Caspian Sea, which has
been considerably increased and partly left at his
disposal. This flotilla can easily take troops on board
either of the corps of Orembourg or the army of the
Camino, and take them to the relief of Penis, die.
embarking either at Astrabad or upon the neighbour•
lug coast of Teheran. The corps which forms part
of the army of the Caucasus, cantoned at Sohirven
and Erivan, and commanded by General Klaruleff,
who distinguished himself in the Eastern war, can
also succour Persia by land as well as by sea. Mese-
, while the Rusaian government neglects nothing in

THE EASTERN QUESTION.

The Paris Pays observes, upon the text of
the identical note to Resohid Pasha of M.
de Bontenieff and M. Thouvenel (the Russian
and the French ambassadors), as reported by
the Trieste Goats :—" Assuming this note to
be correctly reported, we may perceive in it
the germ of the arrangement which has been spoken
of, and the principal bases of which were
est forth in the last number of the Retie
Contemporaine. According to this plan, the
possession of the Isle of Berpeuts and the Delta of the
Danube would be secured to the Porte; and it is
known that, with regard to the fourth question (that
of the Principalities), the Porte hes yielded to the
observations made to it, and has agreed not to limit
the liberty of the divans ad hoc, and thus to leave
them free to express their desires spot) fundamental
questions, each as the union of the Principalities.
There would remain, therefore, only the Bolgrsd
question ; and we do not thick that can be solved in
any better way than by the meeting in Congress of
the plenipotentiaries of the Powers interested."

ITALY.

According to the Opinions of Turin, the raising of
the state of siege in Parma is due to the influence
of the new Bastian envoy. The Opinions says :7.

There is a story current at Milan of Marshal Radetaky's
having lately drunk a trait to the Ring of Bardieia, pro-
mising to pay him a visit at Turin next sprit'. Oa the
other hand, we learn from Parma that it wet COMO S ark-
elberg, the Rouian envoy, who persuaded the Duchess of
Parma to raise the *We if elute and to 'uponm the
tribunal', or Gouts martial; exprassiog, moreover, on
opinion to the effect diet her dependance upon Austria was
neither useful nor in atmordanee with her &gutty.

The Bslancia of Milan having lately Stated the
Pontifical forms at 14,300 men, the Ruorgimento of
Turin observes that that number admits of consider-
able reduction, and that the real force of the Papal
army is not more than 8,000 men, viz., 7,400 infantry
and 800 cavalry, exclusive of two companies of ar-
tillery with twelve pieces of cannon. The Papal
first (!) consists of a 12-gun brig, which is to be sold,
and two small steamers, that only pot oat to sea by

(nom ♦ SPROUL CORIMPONDILIIT3
EXILE OF DON ENRIQUE AND HIS TWO

SISTERS.

The Infant Don Enrique (brother of the Bing) has
been exiled to Mallorca; one of his sisters has been
sent to St. Sebastian, another to Granada. The ex-
planation of this proossding, which is given in the
saloons and put in circulation by the friends of the
cabinet, is the opposition said to have
been trade by these three children of Don
Francisco to the dotation accorded to the
wife of Prince Adalbert of Bavaria. The exile
of the two sicere has no other end than to give an

appearanoe of probability to this rumour. The
real cause of the exile of Dun Enrique is that many
advanced Liversls wished to substitute him u cove-
reign for Queen Isabella. I will communicate to you
some details respecting this conspiracy, of which I am
assured Don Enrique was entirely ignorant.

The Belgian minister has presented his letters of
credence. The Queen has not yet come to any de•
oision relative to the legation at Washington, or to
the appointment of the command,erin.chief of the
Halberdiers. A telegraphic despatch has been re-
ceived announcing that the Emperor of the French
visited St. Sebastian yesterday.

thronged with hones of almost every description, from the
noble charger to the vary heel, and !um the heavy-limbed
Scotch draught horse to the agile ponies of Coursers.
There are a large number of good horses here, sad high
prices have been obtained for superior animals. The best
judges consider the hone fair as better than those of former
Tears. A large number have been sold sod at high Inures.
There is a very large supply of second clan heaters and us-
