LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE PREACH FLEET AT GAETA.

STATEMENT OF THE " MONITEUR."
PARIS, TllO 111113A1

The Nynitetr says :—" The object in send-
ing the French tiret to Gaeta was to give a nark of
sympathy to a prince cruelly tried by destiny. The
Emperor, faithful to the principle of non-interven-
tion, never intended to take any active part in
the conflict at that place. In prolonging
this denionatration be would change its character,
and would give encouragement and material
support to the resistance of the King. It there-
fore became necessary to cause the cessation of this
state of things. We could not indefinitely remain
present at a conflict which could only lead to a
greater effusion of blood. By the advice given by
France to the belligerents, hostilities are suspended
until the 19th instant, and Admiral Barbier de
Than will leave Gaeta to-day."

VENICE.

A c.fliumunication from Venice mays :

Venetia is already inundated with the Austrian lank
notes to which M. de :ichinerling has given a forced cur.
rency, in spite of the promises of the Emperor Francis
Joseph and of the horror which the Venetians entertain
for paper money. Liemoustrations against thesis notes have
already commenced in several towns. At Udine. several
mutilated ones, of the value of live florins, h►ve been stuck
up at the doors of the archbishop's palace, of the Archduke
Ernest's palace, and in several other placee. I may add
that this fact, as far as regards the archbishop, was al-
dressed more particularly to his political sentiments. Last
winter this prelate, fearing a revolution, requested sentinels
from the military governor, which applicathe was acceded
to. That step alienated him from every kind feeling on
the part of the people.
