Again Lord MALMESBURY, first intimating that
he had already pressed upon Austria analogous
advice, instructed Lord COWLEY to go further
his representations to the French Government, and'
frankly and freely enter into the state of }taly. " I
am aware," said his lordship, " from a comversation
which Lord CLARENDON held lately at Compeigne
with the Emperor, and which his lordship repeated
to me, that his Imperial Majesty has long looked at
the internal state of Italy with interest and anxiety.
It may be, although I have no reason for believing
such is the case, that he imagines 'that in a war
with Austria, and having Sardinia as an ally, he
may play the important part of the regenerator of
Italy. If so," he continues, " the treaties of 1815
must be effaced, for such a redistribution of territory
could not be effected without the consent of the
parties to those treaties. liht those compacts have
ensured to Europe the longest peace on record, and
in the opinion of her Majesty's Government still
answer their original purpose in maintaining the
balance of power." Not, however, that he, or the
Cabinet of which he is a member, felt satisfied by
any means with the condition of Italy. "I would
not," he further observed to. Lord COWLEY, "have
your-excellency believe that her Majesty's Govern-
ment are indifferent; to the just discontent which.
affects a large portion of the Italian populations..
Yet it is not in a war between France and Austria
that -their relief is t ) be found. Such a war may
bring about a change of masters, but assuredly it
will not give them independence, and without inde-
pendence liberty is hopeless."
Then, again, as respects Austria. To our Minister-
at Vienna Lord MALMESBURY .wrote,—".Her Ma-
jesty's Government ardently trust that in the
interests of the Italians themselves, and of the peace
of Europe, the Austrian Government will pursue a
course which cannot fail to bring to its side the.
public opinion of impartial, and independent States..
It appears to her Majesty's Government to be of
paramount importance 'at this critical moment for
Austria to enlist public-opinion in her cause, and to•
take more than common care to avoid every act that
could possibly be construed into a wilful offence to
those States, who may,. perhaps, desire a quarrel
with her. Her Majesty's Government; therefore,
your lordship to-take every opportune occasion
to impress this truth, on. the Austrian Government."
And to both the Powers concerned was the admoni-
tion delivered,—"• Her Majesty's Government are
convinced that it is in the union and good under-
standing of France and Austria that an amelioration
and gradual improvement of the condition of the
Italians can be now begun and finally effected. If,
happily for that people, those two Governments
would occupy themselves seriously to insist upon
and carry out the reforms demanded by both justice
and policy in, Central Italy, they would doubtless
succeed." But this judicious counsel was by both
parties rejected,—and we know the terrible result.
Further still, our Foreign Minister told them, that
"if Austria and France could be induced to take a
just estimate not only of their own political interests,
but of the course which would most effectually con;
tribute to the happiness of the Italian populations
throughout the whole extent of the peninsula, her
Majesty's. Government feel that the work would
already be half accomplished, and the rest of Europe,
instead of looking forward with anxiety to the
future, would only have to congratulate itself on the
prospect at length opening to,them of Italian rege-
neration unstained by deeds of violence and bleod-
she d."

Society—a Society embracing a very large proportion
indeed of the Liberal party—has also met, and
unanimously resolved, that, " looking to the in-
creased proof of the necessity of the Ballot as shown
by the flagrant cases of bribery and intimidation at

when at Milan, had an interview with the Emperor

Napoleon. There is no news from the theatre of
war, and at Paris it is given out that the 2lfoniteur
must not be expected to break silence for several
days. A letter from St. Petersburg, says that if
Prussia • allows herself to be goaded into menacing
steps, Russia will concentrate corps of troops on the
Prussian frontiers and in Gallacia, and detachments
of the Russian fleet will be sent to the Prussian
posts in the Baltic. Late accounts from the
drench Imperial head-quarters in Italy states
that the Emperor was concentrating his forces
in order to attack the Austrian army with
an overwhelming power. It is very generally
believed in Paris that a decisive battle will be
fought in the course of next week. The
Minister of the Interior has sent a communication
to a religious journal which had attributed the
insurrectionary movement in a portion of the Papal
States to the proclamation recently issued by the
Emperor. The Minister of the Interior reprehends
malevolent insinuations, which tend to

large majority of the Liberal members who are
pledged to its support, and the circumstances
connected with the recent meeting of the Liberal
party, this meeting, on behalf of the friends of the
Ballot, desires to express its regret that a Liberal
Ministry is about to be restored to 'power without
any stipulation being made for their conceding the
Ballot.' 7

Now all this, we say, is very natural, and very
reasonable. For how can there be an " adequate
representation of the whole Liberal party," in the
Government, under any such exclusive arrangements
as have been made, in the construction of a new
Ministry ? It is. trifling with what they always
professed to consider great principles, to discard
those who are their leading representatives in
Parliament, when an Administration is to be formed
which they have so largely contributed to render
necessary. One might have thought that the Whigs-
would now have thrown all such jealous exclusive-
ness to the winds. They have got back to office, only

produce the

impression that France is endeavouring to weaken

the political authority of the Holy Father.
The Journal des Debals has an article on the
Island of Perim. The writer says that, in the name
of the liberty of the seas and of the universal rights
of nations, England should be asked what the
fortifications of the Island of Perim mean ?

Contrary to general expectation, the amount of
bullion in the Bank of England, as published in last
night's Gazette, shows a small decrease of 6,8461.
There is a decrease also in active circulation of
610,0301. An increase of 609;2251. has taken place
in the reserve of notes.

We make these few extracts from the corre-
spondence quite at random. But they will give a
good idea of the policy which Lord DERBY'S Ad-
ministration has pursued in this matter of the
Italian war. And sure we are, that it is just the
policy which, while manifesting a right, feeling
towards Italy, under its oppression, indicates so
righteous a regard for the true interests of all con-
cerned, and for the peace and happiness of Europe,
that it had only to be persevered in, as it would
have been, to ensure the prdservation of that condition
of dignified neutrality in which they have left the
country to be dealt with by their successors. Happy
indeed will it be for England, if the new Govern-
ment will only carry out a similar foreign policy.

THE ITALIAN. WAR AND 'ENGLISH DIPLOMACY, —Another
blue-book was issued iesterday. One of the despatches
from Earl Cowley, explains the war policy of France, based
on a message from the Emperor to his lordship. Lord
Cowley expressed to Count Walewski his opinion, that the
Emperor's programme could not be carried oat, as Austria
was not likely to give up Lombardy, until after a series of
reverses that' might bring the French troops to the walls of
Vienna, in which case the war would not be localised.
Lord Malmesbury, writing May 20th, anticipates that the
German confederation would shortly give some decided in-
dication of its determination Co look upon the cause of
Austria as vitally bound up with the general interest of the
whole German race. Early in May, Count Walewski thought
that the war might perhaps be over in a few months.

ANNUAL ACCOUNTS OF THE HEALTH COMMITTEE.—We

the health committee. The receipts during the year ending
March 31, were £247,300, and the expenditure £207,000,
leaving a balance in the hands of the bankers, of £40,749.

department was £74,786, a large number of streets being
almost re-paved, including Lime, Athol, Bridgewater, Great
Charlotte, and Boundary-streets, and London-road. The
amount collected from the sewerage rate of twopence in the
pound, was £8,136, of which £2,788 was set apart as a
sinking fund, and the expenditure was £9,521. The nett
amount of loans received on the security of this rate 'was
£9,926, and a sum of £4,695 was expended in the construc-
tion of new sewers, &c. The water rate, collected at the
rate• of three half-pence in the pound, reaohaa. £6,142,
