THE DAY'S NEWS

Parliament was prorogued yesterday. but not by
her Majesty in person. The Lord Chancellor read.
the Royal Speech announcing the dissolution of Par-
liament. The speech declares that her Majesty dis-
solves the present Parliament with a view to enable
•her people to express, in the mode prescribed by the
constitution, their opinion on the state of public
affairs. A paragraph to the Commons conveys the
thanks .of her Majesty for the liberality with which
they have granted the necessary supplies, and the
document concluded by alluding to the fact that in
little more than a year two successive Ministries
have failed to retain the confidence of the House of
Commons.

An important and very influential meeting of
shareholders in the Atlantic Telegraph Company, was
held on Monday, at the Clarendon Rooms, the chair
being occupied by the Hon. Stuart -Wortley, chair-
man of the company. The right hon. gentleman
detailed to the meeting the proceedings which has
hitherto been adopted for carrying out this great
national undertaking, and submitted a plan for rais-
ing a further capital for prosecuting the same to a
suc.cessful issue. He complained of the paltry
assistance which the Government had offered, and
which he fully explained. In the scheme for
raising the additional capital necessary, the main
feature was the issue of five pounds shares, with
a view of popularising the great work. Mr.
Bushell, after the chairman had concluded,
moved a resolution, approving of the suggestions,
which was seconded by Mr. Rankin, and carried
unanimously, Mr. Charles Holland remarking that
the Government had not acted fairly by the share-
holders who had so zealously prosecuted the great
enterprise with so little selfishness or desire of gain.
A report of the meeting will be found in another
column.
The election news, this morning,r adds very little
to that already known.

There
was a large and enthusiastic meeting at Manchester
last night, and the Liverpool and West Derby voters
=will be addressed by both the gentlemen in the
Amphitheatre this evening. The contest in Chester
i
s becoming very keen, and the result is at present
very uncertain. Mr. Salisbury and Mr. Humbe rston
are both actively canvassing personally. The former
appears to have lost a great deal of his popularity

rin consequence of his connection with the Gas Com-
pany, and a recent advance in the price charged to
the citizens. Earl Grosvenor's return is considered
certain. There are still some whispering of an
opposition in Liverpool. The name of Sir D.
Seymour has been mentioned as still likely to be
brought forward, but the leaders of the party
disavow it.
Advices from Alexandria announce the arrival
there of the Bombay Mail, with advices to the 26th
ultimo., which in some respects are highly satisfac-
tory, but in others are the reverse of encouraging.
All traces of the rebellion are dying out, but in Bombay
great discontent has been produced by the proposed
increase in the import tariff. The telegraphic reports
state that, great excitement had been produced by
the receipt of the news, that immense meetings had
been held to protest against the measure, and that

strong memorials were in course of preparation to
the Home Government and Parliament upon the
subject.
Advices from Naples of the 16th, mention that all
hope for the life of the King has now gone. He
has had the sacrament administered to him, and has
finally bade farewell to his family.

The question of "Peace or War" is now the all-
absorbing one, and since the declaration made by
Lord Derby, a feeling of deep apprehension has
arisen, and it is considered inevitable that England
will be dragged into the quarrel now brewing be-
tween France and Austria. It remains, however,
with the people of England to declare their senti-
ments upon this question, and this they will have
ample opportunity of doing at the election meetings,
which will now follow each other thick and fast.
There can be no question that the feeling of the
English nation is decidedly adverse to ary partici-
pation in the threatening strife, and if the- present
government precipitate it into the conflict, they must
be prepared to take the consequences. Let the con-
stituencies declare openly and unanimously for the
principle of Non-intervention.

With reference to the proposed Congress, the Moni-
tezer of yesterday contains an article which states that
the different European Powers have expressed
themselves on the following six points, as the
basis of the deliberation of the Congress :—Firstly,
to determine the means by which peace may be
maintained between Austria and Piedmont.
Secondly, in what manner the evacuation of the
States of the Church by the French and Austrian
troops may be best effected. Thirdly, whether
it is expedient to introduce reforms in the internal
administration of those and of the other Italian
States, the administration of which may present
defects evidently tending to create a permanent
and dangerous state of uneasiness and dis-
content, and what those reforms should be.
Fourthly, to substitute for the treaties be-
tween Austria and the Italian Duchies a
confederation amongst themselves of the States of
Italy, for their mutual protection, as well internal
•as external. Aukria has since demanded the disarm-
ing of Sardinia, and then subsequently proposed a
general disarmament. England modified Austria's pro-
posal, to the sense that it should only be necessary
to admit the principle of a general disarmament,
reserving the manner of regulating its execution
until after the assembling of the congress. France
believes that Piedmont could not be invited to
disarm if she is not to be represented at the
congress. The English government having, how-
ever, insisted upon it, France, willing to prove
her conciliatory disposition has promised to
request Piedmont to disarm on condition
that Piedmont and the other Italian states
be invited to take part in the Congress. The article
goes on to cite historical precedence, and hopes that
this proposal will meet with the unanimous consent
of the Powers. France has even added that she is
disposed to assent to a disarmament previous to the
Congress. Everything, therefore, justifies the belief
that, even if all difficulties are not yet removed, a
definitive understanding will, ere long, be established,
and that no further obstacle will oppose the assem-
bling of the Congress.
The Globe of last night states that intelligence has
been received by telegram from Turin to the effect
that the recent negociations were brought to a close
yesterday by Sardinia accepting the principle of a
general disarmament. The Paris correspondent of
the same journal states that the reported opposition
of the masses of the French Dpnplc. fn +ho
nenaed war is a most gratuitous assumption.
Advices from Belgium mention that the Ministry
have succeeded in defeating, by 63 votes to 33, a
bill brought in by the clerical party for small terri-
torial district hustings, by which the voters could be
ready marked and controlled. The Ministry fol-
lowed up this success by a clause providing that
votes should be taken in alphabetical order, and not
by parishes.
Advices have been received fro in Rome to the 16th.
The departure of volunteers, which had hitherto been
considerable, now increases rapidly. Two hundred
and fifty young men have left Perouse for Piedmont.
A seditious riot took place the day before yesterday,
among the students of Bologna, and the troops were
obliged to fire upon them. It is stated that several
persons were wounded. Austria is increasing the
garrison of Ferrara

afpro

- The Ellora, with the Bombay mails, arrived at
Marseilles at seven o'clock yesterday morning. The
mails for England left at ten a.m. Thirty-three
hours quarantine enforced.
