The Duke-. of Cambridge has left Paris, not for
Marseilles, as -lie•at first intended, but for Vienna,
by .the Strasburg- rail way. The object of the change
in his plans is no doubt the hope that his presence
at Vienna may have an. effect on the vacillating
councils• ,of the- Emperor. It appears that his
royal highness will now embark from Trieste for
ConitautinOple.. The Sudden change in the route
taken by the Duke of Cambridge caused a great
sensation- at-. the Paris Bourse, where it even
created a considerable rise iu the funds, and was
made the foundation of an endless' variety of
rumours. It was said ,that within the last
few days a better understanding had been
established between the Western i Powers as to
the joint •measures to be taken against Russia,
and that the Duke of • Cambridge wished 'to meet
the Prince of Prussia at Vienna, where-he
gone to attend the Emperor's Marriage. This meet-
ing, • it., was hoped, would produce a good effect,
aud might l.e t -e means of influencing the Austrian
C,tbinet. All the news, however, which reaches
us from Germany concurs in stating that not only
Prusaikt,Aitt Anstria, continue to maintain the same
reserve which. they have hitherto,observed. The
alteration iu the Duke of Cambridge's plans must
have been very,sudden ; for the Marseilles papers
which 'arrived in Paris yesterday state that the
Caradoc had receive! orders to have her steam up,
in order .to sail the moment the duke embarked.

Marshal de St. Arnaud pursues his journey
southward slowly, on account of the state of his
health. He only travels by day, and he has de-
clined the visits of all the authorities of the
towns through which he passed, with the exception
of Marshal de Castellane and the Prefect of Lyons.
The Minister of Marine hasappointed several new
chaplains and assistant chaplains in the navy, and
they are about to leave for their different stations.
Tile general return of the war materiel .for the
year 1852 hai just been distributed to the members
of the Senate and of the Legislative Body. It ap-
pears fiozn it that ou the 31st December, 1852,
the approximate value of the war materiel amount-
ed to 471,489,740 f.,, being au increase over 1851 of
11,062,079 f., caused principally by the augmenta-
tion of the artillery. : •

The ,Sentinells of Toulon states that Rear-Ad-
miral Lugeol will take his passage in the Chaptal,
which is about 7'to leave :with troopii(for Gallipoli,
from whence he will proceed to hoist his flag on
board in the Black Sea.,• He is accompanied by
Captain Lecointe, his flag-captain.
A letter from Algiers states that, a, fresh agita-
tion haling brrken out in Kabylia, General Ban-
don, the governor-general, had sent troops against
the disaffected tribes, with orders to the command-
ing officers to act energetically,. so as to put down
the rising in its outset.
The Moniteur says :—". The' Government has.
received reiiorts from General Canrobert, on the
arrival of the:. French troops at Gallipoli, and on
their installation in the .environs of that town.
These first accounts are :very satisfactory. A
Turkish commission, .presided- over by Ibrahim
Paella, had preceded at Gallipoli the arrival of our
first detachments, in Order to make itself ac-
quainted with our necessities, land to satisfy them
as far as possible. The General has had much
cause to be Satisfied with this intervention. The
Paeha of Adrianople had come at the same time
to Gallipoli to support with his authority the exe-.
eutiou of the measures to be taken ; thus all the
resources were turned to use, and-our soldiers at
their disembark:Aion received all that was neces-
sary for theta. A. proportional part of the resources
of the town had, been reserved fir the English
army. This division has been effected between
them with the iuost 'cordial understanding.
General Canrobert has reconnoitred all the
Peninsula; he has fixed upon the spots where
the different. corps will encamp, and' will form
themselves into brigade as they disembark. The
troops will 'be there in (rood condition, at the
smallest •distance possible front Gallipoli, and
iu localities abounding with water and ' wood.
The country is very iiealthy, and the necessities
of the sick have been provided for by the instal-
lation of 'a temporary hospital at Gallipoli. Loca-
litieahave also been prepared in the town to serve
as magazines, and to receive provisions of all kinds
sent from France for the army.'. Our installation
has therefore commenced on the best couditious,
and in a short time the first three divisions will be
united in the camp of Gallipoli, with all the materiel
of artillery, engineers, provisions, hospitals, and
encampment destined for the expeditionary corps.
All those immense stores have been embarked from
the shores of France and Algeria, and, without
doubt, the greater portion has by this time arrived
at its destination."

The Memorial of Andens affirms that a sixth
squadron is about to be added to all the French
cavalry regiments,--whiehswili make an addition to
that force of .60 squadrons.

We read in the Parlament° of the 16th inst.:--

"The Augsburg Gazette publishes a letter from Turin,-
ascribing to the Minister of the Emperor of the French
an undue intervention in our private affairs, with re-
gard' to certain laws now before the Legislature.
The falsehood of this assertion needs no proof for those
who are aware.ef the delicate proceedings of the Imperial
Cabinet of France towards her allies and the personal
character of her Repro entative at our Court. The Sar-
dinian Government, besides, has shown for many years
that it is solely guided by honour, dignity, and the real
intere-ti of the n4iou, and it is determined not to re-
nounce its 'tnission."_

The Duchess of Parma intends to publish a gene-
ral amnesty in favour of political offenders, and has
appointed a commission to inquire into the re--
sources of the-ConntiY, and to devise means of re-
du'cing the taxes. The father -of the late Duke,
on hearing of his death, had left Paris for the pur-
, pose of reassuming the Government Of the DuChy.
He states that lie ablicated in- favour of his son,
but not in that of his grandson. The wise measures
adopted by the Princess have tendered her so popu-
lar, 'that it is not probable that the former reigning
Duke will succeed in his pretensions.
