Viscount Enfield, on Tuesday, will move that an
humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying that
her Majesty will be graciously pleased to appoint a royal
commission to inquire into the operation and effect of the
several burial and cemetery acts in reference to the incum•
beats and ministers of parishes and districts within the bills
of mortality, and to the amount and mode of compensation,
if any, to be provided for the loss of fees or other rights and
privileges, occasioned to them by the closing of churchyards
and burial grounds under the said acts.

A letter from Vienna in the Nerd Nays :—" The
magnates and the young men of Faith had proposed tl
give a banquet and a serenade by torchlight to Mr. Dunlop,
the Secretary to the British Legation, but the latter re.
quested the originators of the fete not to carry their inten-
tions into effect, as it might be attended with unpleasant

to him."

The Journal of Rome has the following amusing
paragraph : —" The discouragement which the journals of
the Revolution experienced in consequence of the death of
Count Cavour was so considerably increased on learning
who bad been appointed heir to the dangerous political
inheritance, that, unable to destroy the sinister influence
caused by that event, they have at length betaken them-
selves to other means in order to balance the nohnppy
effects alluded to, and now boldly spread the rumour that
the French government, either officially or officiously, had
assumed the responsibility of the future in Italy, and
begun by recognising the new order of things established
by usurpation. Hitherto the French press has taken no
notice of this gratuitous assertion, believing, perhaps, that
the very improbability of such a measure was sufficient to
contradict it."

THE MINING MAIL STEAMER CANADIAN.—This
steamer, now above eight days overdue with the mails
from Quebec, had not (up to the time of our de-
spatches being sent off from Liverpool yesterday) been
beard of. Much anxiety ham already been evinced for
her safety, as it is expected she would have about 300
souls, including passengers, on board. The general
opinion, however, is that es the Canadian would be the
first steamer to pass down the Straits of Belle Isle this
season, she would probably find much difftculty in passing
through, as the ice might cause great obstruction, possibly
damaging the fan, and necessitating a run for St. John's for
repairs, &c. The steamer North Britou, now due at Lon-
duederry with the Canadian mails, is expected to bring some
tidier of the misting steamer, as this vessel would alo per
down the Straits of Belle Isle, should the ice permit of a
sate passage.
