FRENCH DIPLOMACY IN ITALY AND PRUSSIA.—
We read in the Independance Beige, " French diplomacy
just now is pursued by an evil destiny. If certain ru-
mours accredited in Paris are to be believed, M. de Mona.
tier only heard through the papers of General Dumont's
mission, which has produced such a bail effect in Italy ;
and if the Moniteur denied in such formal terms all com-
munication of despatches at Berlin, it did so because M.
Lefebvre de Behaine, in the heat of the moment and in

order to justify the language he used to M. de Thile, the
Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in Prussia,
was so far carried away as to read instructions to his inter.
locutor which were merely intended to guide himself as
to the line of policy he had to follow with the Prussian
government. We give these explanations for what they
are worth ; whether true or not they can in no way modify
the situation."

urgency for extraneous benevolence to mitigate a degree of
suffering. little leas intense than that of 184 R, although,
from various causes, much less is heard about it, and, on.
fortunately, much leas heed given to it.
