EVACUATION OF THE DANUBIAN PRINCI
PALI TIES.

Mr. URQUHART asked the Noble Secretary for
Foreign Affairs to state the cmse of the de:ay which
bad taken piece in regard to *the evacuations of the
Danubian provinces ; also, whether it was true that a
conference which had been held at Constantinople by
the ministers of England and France had come to the
decision to renew the confinement of the Hungarian re-
fugees ?
Lord PALMERSTON said the last accounts which he
received were contained in a dispatch, dated the 17th of
April, which stated that certain troops had already
began to march, and it was expected in about a fortnight
of that time that the greater part, but not the whole, of
the Russian troops would have evacuated at least the
province of Wallachia. He was also in-
formed that the Turkish troops were evacuat-
ing the province. With regard to any fresh
emergencies arising, it must be assumed that fresh
arrangements would: be made, but he was not at
present aware of any existing communications between
the two Governments bearing on that point. In refer-
ence to the second question, he was sorry to say that as
yet the endeavours of the Governments of England and
France to obtain the liberation of the remaining Hunga-
rian refugees had not been successful.
'OCCUPATION OF ROME BY FRANCE.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked the Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs, whether her Majesty's Government
concurred in the prolonged cccupation of Rome by the
French army, and if he could inform the House when those
troops are likely to be withdrawn; also, whether it was
the opinion of the Noble Lord that the result of this
occupation had been to establish a good government for
Rome?

Lora PALMERSTON said the occupation of Rome
was a measure undertaken by France on their own
discretion and judgment ; the British Govern-
ment was no party to it. France had exer-
cised her own rights in regard to it, and it had not
been thought necessary to obtain the previous concur-
rence of the British Government, With regard to the
result of the occupation, he was sorry to say that he
could not answer the Hon. Member's question in the
affirmative. I: was well known, not through official
channels, but to all persons who had the slightest know-
ledge of the city, that the internal condition of Rome was
any thing but satisfactory. With regard to the pro-
longation of the occupation, there had been friendly com-
municatione with the French Government on the sub-
ject, and neither of the two were blind to the fact that
the retreat of the French Government would be fol-
lowed by the occupation of the city by others, and there-
fore it had been thought best to leave to the French
Government itself to decide when that occupation would
best be dispensed with.
CHANCERY REFORM.

In answer to a queBtien from Mr. MUNTZ,
Lord J. RUSSELL said, that the Lord Chancellor
had lately had this subject under his consideration, and
a measure wou!d very soon be introduced by the Govern-
ment.
