A. letter from Boulogne, dated yesterday, says :
When the Emperor visited on his way here the
regiments in the camp of Helfaut, near St. Oiler,
the weather was frightful, the rain falling in tor-
rents. His Majesty was received with loud accla-
mations by the men. He would not, however,
allow the soldiers to take arms. After breakfast,
the Emperor, in a private carriage, followed by
another carriage, left without escort for Boulogne,
where he arrived at half-past five."

The greatest activity at this moment prevails in
the offices of the Ministry. Orders have been given
in all parts of France to form battalions of war ;
and they are already being executed in all the
divisions.

General Ochsenbein, who is charged with the
organisation and command of the second foreign
legion, has arrived at Besancon.

Protectorate.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, March I..—The Oesterreischiselbe Cor-
respondenz, of yesterday evening, contained an
official article on the subject of the approaching
Peace Congress. It is evidently intended to pro-
duce a tranquillising effect on the public, and the
object would perhaps have been attained if any
mention had been made of Prussia. The article in
question is as follows :
_ .

" In a few days the representatives of the Powers im-
mediately concerned in the conflict in the East, or con-
cernediin it by means of conditional treaties, will meet
in Vienna to begin the negotiations for peace. It is to be
expected that one of the most distinguished Turkish
dignitaries will be sent by the Porte to act during the
Congress as Special Commissioner, with Arif Effendi, the
Ambassador at the Imperial Royal Court. The Privy
Councillor, M. de Titoff, who formerly represented
Russia at Constantinople, will assist the Russian Minis-
ter Prince Gortschakoff. Great Britain sends Lord
John Russell, a man of high birth, and a states-
man distinguished for his experience in State affairs,
and his Parliamentary influence. Together with the
Right lion. Earl of Westmoreland, the experienced dip-
lomatist, who has for some years represented his Sove-
reign the Queen at the Imperial Court, Lord J. Russell
will speak in the name of England. Baron de Bourqueney
the representative of France at the Imperial Court, so for-
tunately unites in himself the two desiderata in a per-
son sharing in the negotiations, he enjoys the perfect
confidence of his Sovereign, and has an accurate know-
ledge of the political affairs of the East, that it seems
less necessary that the Power he represents should send
any other Plenipotentiary.
" Count von Buol-Schauenstein, Minister for Foreign
Affairs, and of the Imperial House, who will take the
lead in the negotiations as the first Plenipotentiary of
Austria, will have Baron von Prokesch-Osten, who has
great experience in Eastern matters, as his adlatus.
"The appointment of such distinguished and prominent
statesmen to act as Plenipotentiaries at the approaching
negotiations for peace proves the serious intention of
the Powers concerned to put an end, if possible, to the
war in the East, and togive to the whole of Europe what
is so ardently wished for—asolidpeace. Enough has been
done for the military honour of all parties. A general
basis has been gained for the settlement of various
important points, claims, and re'ations which, during
a series of years, have either actually been disputed, or
have menaced to lead to conflicts ; a general basis has
been found, which swill insure the independence and
integrity of Turkey, and the privileges of all the Chris-
tian subjects of the Porte, without interfering with the
sovereignty of the Sultan, and wi:l prevent any
future encroachments on the part of single Powers. We
acknowledge that the final issue if the approaching ne-
gotiations—as is the case with everything undertaken
by man—lies in the hand of God alone, but the negotia-
tions for the restoration of peace begin under favourable
circumstances, and this will encourage the statesmen
concerned in them to set about their great work with
earnestness and candour, so that they may, with the
blessing of Almighty God, bring matters to a happy con-
clusion in the way intended by their illustrious Sove-
reigns, and for the welfare of ail the European nations."
