The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post
(2d edition) says :
" I have received a strange communication to-
day, which, however, is declared to be founded
on good authority. It is asserted that Austria
has agreed with Naples to get up political demon-
strations in various parts of Italy, should the
English and French fleets appear in the Bay of
Naples. These demonstrations will be organised
by the police, and are to express republican opi-
nions. M. Hubner is said to have been the
medium employed to agree with Naples on this
policy. Austria will thus turn to the Western
Powers and exclaim—' You see what your inter-
ference has done ; you hare encouraged republi-
canism throughout Italy!' Events alone will
show if there be any truth in these assertions ; I
give them just as I receive them.

"I am able to assure you that if an Anglo-
French squadron is sent into the Bay of Naples
Sardinia will despatch one or two vessels also.
The Governments of England and France are
completely united in their views with regard to
Piedmont."

The Paris correspondent of the Times (second
edition) says :—" M. de Brunow bad an inter-
view with the Minister of Foreign Affairs to-day,
and presented a note. The interest attached to
the Italian question and the recent despatch of
Prince Gortschakoff induce as to belieVe that M.
de Brunow's communication had reference to the
condition of Naples, and perhaps was not essen-
tially different from that despatch. This, how-
ever, is but conjecture. In some quarters it is
thought that, notwithstanding the present critical
state of affairs, an arrangement is not improbable,
and that the King of Naples will at the last mo-
ment listen to the advice of those who, after ail,
are his best friends. But whether it be from
prudence or conviction that flit; system of govern-
ment so long prevailing at Naples be changed,
the people no less than the King will profit by it."

The Vienna correspondent of the Times (second
edition) says :
As it has more than once been suggested to me
that the King of Naples would hardly have displayed
such extreme obstinacy had he not been assured that
Austria was strongly opposed to the idea of a hos-
tile demonstration against him, it may bo well to
lay before you a succinct account of the conduct of
the Imperial Government towards Naples on the one
hand, and towards B ugl and and France on the other.
Even during the war Austria repeatedly counsel-
led the King of Naples to avoid giving offence
to France and England, " her allies," and since the
conclusion of peace she has not ceased to urge the
King of Naples to make the concessions so strongly
insisted on by the Western Powers. The Austrian
Government has, however, always carefully
avoided encroaching on the sovereign rights of the
King of Naples, and that for a reason which is self-
evident. If Austria were to join England and
France in their present attempt to force the King
of Naples to govern his subjects rationally, would
she not assist in establishing a precedent which
might, perhaps, be a source of great future in-
convenience to herself ? When the official papers
are laid before Parliament, it will be seen that
the conduct of Austria in the Neapolitan ques-
tion has been anything but disloyal. She promised
to use all her influence on the King of Naples
in order to induce him to make the required
concessions, but she, at the same time, de.
clared that she could not possibly go beyond per-
suasion, as arbitrary interventions in the internal
affairs of States were contrary to international law.
It is not my intention to say that the exact lan-
guage employed by the Imperial Government has
now been given, but the words employed certainly
convey the sense of the communications from time
to time made to the London and Paria Cabinets.
That this Government has done all in its power to
persuade France not to join England in a hostile
demonstration against Naples may be considered
certain, for it does not attempt to conceal its
vexation at its want of success. Before this sub-
ject is quitted Wraay be observed, that the King
of Naples could not have been rendered obdurate
by a knowledge that Austria was averse to any
intervention or demonstration, as the Imperial
Cabinet did not consider it advisable to communi-
cate its opinions on the subject to Prince Petrulla.
Reliable information has been given me that the
Chevalier de Martini is the bearer of a very urgent
appeal to the "good sense and judgment" of the
King of Naples ; but no one is inclined to believe
that it will be of the least avail. One of the best-
, informed and shrewdest diplomatists in this city is
of opinion that the Austrian Government will not
actively interfere in the Neapolitan question, " un-
less, indeed, there should be a revolutionary out-
break in Naples, in which case she might consider
it advisable to make her peace with Russia, which
she could easily do by offering to assist the embar-
( rassed (Neapolitan) Monarch."

It is generally observed that much less is now
said about the friendship between Austria and
France than was the case a few weeks since, and it
begins to be suspected that this Government is not
particularly edified by the way in which France
receives the advances of Russia. If anything could
make Austria desirous to place herself on a more satis-
factory footing with Russia it would be the persuasion
that the policy of France was about to undergo a
change. The Russians have a very powerful party
here, and otrong holm are eutertabaed by r3QIIIO of
