NAPLES.

Letters from Naples of the 12th state that the
King on hearing of the assamination of the Arch-
bishop of Paris couatermanded the ball which was
to have been given at the Palace, ordered that the
theatres should be closed for three days, and pre-
scribed that expiatory prayers should be offered up.
Thefts which were to commence on the 12th, on
the occasion of the King's birthday, were put a stop
to. Two cafés at Naples had been surrounded two
days before by the police authorities, and sixty per-
sons arrested. It was thought that a Maszinian
plot had been discovered. A degree of uneasiness
prevailed among the population.

LORD STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE AND

SIR 11. BULWER.

The Constantinople correspondents of the Inde-
pendence Beige and La Presse, writing on the 15th,
state that a singular scene took place at the last
mixed conference between the resident ministers and
the commissioners held for the final settlement of the
&man relative to the Divans of the Danubian Prin-
cipalities. The correspondent of the former journal
writes :

-- -
Sr H. Bulwer, the English delegate in the cola-
minion, expressed himself warmly against the manner
in which he had been treated by the English
amtemador, who, contrary to the orders of his
government, which directed that his Excellency should
conceit with hint (Sir H. Bawer) open the terms of the
Orman, had kept him in entire ignorance of the program of
' the dtmenesion, while the other members of the commis-
ion had been kept au rewrote with the Mann
of the Conference by their respective representatives,
sad their opinion bad often been taken into consideration.
Sir H. &direr added, that he saw regrettable omionions in the
Amon and that he should have presented actions objections
at certain paints if Lord Stratfeedde Radcliffe had consulted
him as he ought to have done.
Lord Stratford, stung by Sir H. Btdater's remarks, forgot
himself u usual, and retorted in atone not justified by the eir-
cumetance,andwhkbprovokeelsaaltercationintheopen eitting
between these two personage*, which had better net be
described, but which certainly bad nothing to do with the
programme of the Conference. The English ambassador
concluded by Baying ho was aware that he hod
acted contrary to his instructions, but that he did not deem
it convenient to explain his conduct to the English Commis-
sioner, but that he would explain himself to his govern-
ment. lteschid Poch& interposed, it is said, to stop the
dispute.

PRUSSIA AND

The Federal Council of Switzerland has published
a proclamation to the army, in which it announces
that the affair of Neufchatel is in a fair way of
arrangement, and they may ho sure that that ar-
rangement " will not offend the dignity of Switzer-
land." It compliments the troops in warm terms
_ .

on the patriotism they hail displayed in responding
to its appeal to take arms, and announces their
discharge.
A letter from Berne of the 23rd states that the
Federal government, considering the importance for

Switzerland that all the elements of a nature to en-
lighten the representativo of the Confederation
should be placed at his disposal, has requested the
Council of State of Neufchatel to name two members
to follow Dr. Kern to Paris. The Council of State
immediately appointed its president, M. Piaget, and
M. Aims Humbert, to the office in question, and
these gentlemen left at once for Paris.

The Queen has entered on a state of convalescence.
The Gazette publishes a decree ordering that the
general election of deputies shall commence on the
26th of March.

The Noredades announces that M. Miguel Ors y
Garcia, a gentleman well known for his liberal
opinions, has been arrested at Madrid. The cause is

THE KING OF SARDINIA.

The Moniker of yesterday contains a short letter
from Nice, of Friday, announcing that the King of
Sardinia arrived at Villefranchc, at nine o'clock in
the morning of the previous day, by the steam-
frigate Govern°ln. On landing, he was received by
Count Cavour and the local authorities. The people,
in spite of the bad weather, assembled in crowds to
welcome him. The King having reviewed the 9th
Regiment of the line at Villcfranche, rode on to
Nice, where he was received by the municipality in
a fine amphitheatre erected for the occasion, and
gaily decorated. A loyal address having been pre-
sented and acknowledged by him, Victor Emmanuel

next proceeded to visit the Empress Dowager of
Russia at the Villa Avigdor.

THE INDIA AND CHINA MAILS.

PARIS, TtuDA EVINING.

There seems now to be very little doubt that,
without waiting for the expiration of the Bank of
France Charter in 1800, the statute-, of that institu-
tion will be revised, and that the principal object of
the revision is the augmentation of the capital.
Great difference of opinion prevails in financial cir-
cles as to the policy of the measure, but the party
favourable to it thinks that it will have the effect of
giving expansion to credit, and sustaining the Itente.
The Bourse remains in a state of stagnation. The
Rentz fell 10c. for cash, and closed at yesterday's
price, 87fr. 6.k. for account. Mobilier fell 23fr. 73e.
Railways were extremely depressed in consequence
of its being known that a project exists for imposing
a tax upon them. All the lines were quoted lower.
Mediterranean fell Ill?. 25e. ; Orleans, 10fr. ; Grand
Central, ifr. 50e. ; and most of the others as much
as sfr. There was a report that the long protracted
negotiations between the Orleans and Grand
Central were broken off, but I believe the
news is not true. I learn that a further
meeting took place this morning, and that the prin-
cipal point' remaining for consideration is whether
the government will give the guarantee of four per
cent. which the Orleans company persists in ask-
ing for.
Count M'alewski gave a ball last night, at which
Fcrukh Khan and all the foreign ministers in Paris,
with the exception of Lord Cowley, were:present.
The Daily News and Sun were seized to-day.

The Pays rya:—"'The latest news from the Da-

received from St. Petersburg, the Russian authori-
ties are to quit Bolgrad on the lit of February, and
that they will proceed to Kichenelf, the capital of

remain in Bolgrad is the Secretary of Intendance
charged to deliver up the town officially to the Mol-

THE EMPIRE AND ITS RIVALS.

The Imperialist and Funionist circles of Paris are
occupied just now with very different but to each of
them very interesting statements. In the former it
is confidently asserted that his Holiness the Pope has
at last consented to crown the Emperor at Rheims
in the month of May, and has gis en the Remotion
of the church to the new order of things in France.
In the latter a contract of marriage is annougccd
between the Comte de Paris and the daughter of the
Duchess Regent of Parma, who is the only sister of
the Dree de Bordeaux. By this alliance the fusion
will, it is hoped, be complete, and the conflicting
•ysetensron+of the Howes of Bourbon and Orleans
cb reconciled. At present, however, the youthful
princess and future bride is only in her eighth year.

Some of the correspondents of a contemporary are
very wary just now with the War Department not
giving and their friends orders for great gum,
and making all manner of experiments at the public
expense. They infer from their own disappoint-
ment that nothing is at present being done. This
inference is, however, wholly unfounded in feet.
The experiments commenced are being steadily per-
med under Lord Pansaure's direetson, and the
orders which were eat bestowed on the houses who
have vented their anger in ear ecatempomry's
column' have, we have reason to know, been given
to the eminent firm of W. 0. Armstrong and CO., of
Newcastle-ea-Tyne.

corn, whilst it requires the taxes to be paid in
