end as no other arrangement has since been
made, the sittings of the Conference cannot
well be resumed until Baron Hubner has re-
turned to his post. It is `C.vident that the Austrian
diplomatist is in nc hurry to get back to Paris, for
he purposes going ma few days to Ischl to pay his
respects to their Majesties, awl. to return again to
Vienna, instead of continuing his journey by way
of Salzburg and Strasburg, to the French capital.
As Baron Hubner is to meet Prince Metternich tt
Dresden a fortnight hence it is probable that he will
be at his post on or about the 23d or 24th of this
month. In a former letter it was hinted that the
relations between Austita and France
,were some-
what less intimate than was the case a few months
ago, and reliable information has now been ac-
quired, that there is a very considerable difference
of opinion between the two Governments on more
than one question of importance. The Emperor of
the French is inclined to make the Conference or
Congress permanent in Paris, and to this Austria
strongly objects, as she has not forgotton the
"conversations" respecting Italy which took place
during the sittings held on the Bth and 14th of
April last. The reorganisation of the Danubian
Principalities is another point on which the French
and Austrian Governments do not agree, for the
former still favours the union of Moldavia and Wal-
lachia, and the latter openly declares that to
unite the two provinces would be to play the game
of Russia. The policy of England in Italy is an
abomination in the sight of Austria, but she fully
approves of the firmness which the British Cabinet
displays towards Russia.

impossible for him to suppress the manifestations
of popular joy. It has, then, been resolved to
place the city in a state of siege immediately
that the fleet heaves in view. It is said that
the decree is already drawn up. The Command-
ant of the city has already been changed, and
in place of Gen. Gaeta has been substituted Geu.
Lanza, who participated with Gen. Filangieri in
the reduction of Sicily, in the repression of in-
surrection of Calabria in 1848, and in the campaign
in the Roman States against Garibaldi. These facts
will describe the new Go-rernor. The Government
therefore fears the enthusiasm of the people, and the
manifestation of their true sentiments and desire
on the return to a legal system of Government,
which in fact, and not by right, has been destroyed.
Should, therefore, all such manifestations be sup-
presssed, either by force or from a sense of prudence
silence and tranquility must not be taken as the
offspring of indifference or of ingratitude, but of
experience of violence, and of a desire to avoid a
new catastrophe similar to that of May 15, 1848.
There is an American vessel here called the Sup-

of the United States.

Padre Ruggiero has been pardoned.
The following notice, in writing, was stuck on
the walls of Naples this morning :—" Two fleets
have been lost in the Mediterranean. Should any
one find them, and bring notice of them to a Mini-
ster, he shall be rewarded." Thus England is
doomed to the last indignity which can be inflicted
upon her—to be ridiculed by Neapolitans.
Le _Nord of Thursday contains the following
from a correspondent at Vienna, dated the sth :
" At length Austria has taken a decided step to-

wards indicating the part she intends to play in the
complications of Naples. Shortly after the publica-
tion of Prince Gortschakofts circular, our cabinet—
I have the intelligence from an indisputable source

—sent to Paris a -note couched in much more ever•

getic terms than any previous communicaton. In
this note France is urged, in an amicable but very
earnest spirit, not to allow herself to be dragged by
England into employing demonstrative measures
against the King of Naples, which would have
the character of a pressure or menace, but to con-
fine herself, as Austria has done, to friendly repre-
sentations, which no injury to the sovereign rights
of that monarch.

"It would hardly be possible for an explicit re-
ply
to this note to have reached Vienna by this
time, but the French Government has already, by
means of the telegraph, sent very reassuring ex-
planations, disposing altogether of the apprehen-
sions relative to the pretended naval expedition,
and leading us to hope that England, if she per-
sists in certain demonstrations, will remain per-
fectly isolated—a fact sufficient to cause her to re-
nounce, for the moment, every project of the kind.
I am even assured that at the request of Austria
the French Government has positively declared to
the British Ministers that it will not join in a
movement having the appearance of intimidation.
Thus the words of Prince Gortschakoff, which, ac-
cording to the English press, were to find no echo,
were not uttered in vain, but have found a sym-
pathetic reception which will double their moral
effect."
