FRANCE.

The National says :—" The most earnest represen-
tations are being made to the Cabinet of Turin to
induce it to enter into a treaty of alliance with
Austria. The Piedmontese Government hesitates,
and as yet no conclusion has been come to, although
the Austrian Plenipotentiaries daily reduce their
pretensions as to the amount of the war indemnity ;
but this resistance cannot continue, and it is urgent
that a prompt determination should be come to in
France."

The following extract from the Peuple will give
our readers some idea of the effect produced on the
minds of the French people by the publication of the
Brunswick-like manifesto of the Emperor of Russia.
This journal :says—
" Hurrah! The Cossacks are coming! The prefects
of the Czar, about to be driven away by their people,
have implored the support of their sovereign; and the
Czar places his formidable hordes in movement. The
Emperor of Austria, the generalissimo of the as-
sassins of Italy, Hungary, Gallicia, opens to the
Cassacks the route of the Alps. The King of
Prussia, the chief of the German Princes confede-
rated against the country, opens to the Cossacks the
route to the Rhine. The Cossacks are coming I. They
are traversing the Danube and the Vistula ! The Haps-
burg introduces them to Vienna ; the Hohenzollern de-
livers Posen to them. Revolutionists of 1789, the Cos-
sacks bring back noble and clerical feudality Revolu-
tionists of 1793, the Cossacks bring back to you
hereditary monarchy ! Revolutionists of 1848, the
Cossack are coming to consolidate the capitalist privilege!
Patriots of all parties, the Cossacks are coming to dis-
member France, and cause it to be put to ransom by
pretenders, nobles, bankers and Jesuits! Revolutionists
of all periods, patriots of all parties, the Revolution is
menaced! the country is in danger! Republicans,
the time has come in which the sword of
Franco should be drawn from the scabbard to
deliver Poland and Italy! The time has come at
which our flag should be united to those of Hungary and
democratic Germany! To the defiance of the Czar,
arms alone ought to reply! The lot is cast! God is
with Us for equality against feudality—for civilization
against barbarism! The Cossacks are coming! Be it so!
We shall know how to dig them a vast tomb in the bed
of the Rhine! Let them come! France will break the
sword of war in the breast of the last of Kings! !"

BAVARIA.

The free corps of students and artizans of Munich
was dissolved on the 17th. On that day the Diet had
a very stormy sitting. The President of the Cham-
ber, M. VON PFORDTEN, submitted to the Chamber
the programme of the Ministers, which declares that
it adopts without reserve the theory of the initiative.
In reply to this communication it was moved that
the Chamber should immediately appoint a com-
mission of seven members, charged with drawing up
and presenting to the sitting an address to his MA-
JESTY, recognising the validity of the German consti-
tution, and praying the KING immediately to put it
into force as voted by the Parliament of Frankfort.
This motion gave rise to an extremely violeat debate,
in which M. Kum, the mover of the proposition, said,
in speaking of M. VON PIORDTEN and his colleagues,
that it was a disgrace to the constitutional principle
to see such nieu on the Ministerial bench. The
Ministers upon this demanded that the Chamber
should not come to any decision before the Cabinet
; bad laid before it all the documents relative to the
German question,
