Neapolitan question ; and is prepared, if neces-

FRANCE.
PARIS, TIitTR3DA.Y.
The Emperor yesterday received at the Palace
of the Tuileries, in solemn audience, Count de
Kisseleff, the Russian Ambassador, who had to
present to his Majesty his- credentials as represen-
tative of Russia at the Court of France. His MI,
jesty arrived at the palace at one o'clock, and
shortly after five state carriages proceeded to the
hotel of the Russian embassy, in the rue du Fau-
bourg St. Honore, and conveyed thence to the
Tuileries the ambassador -and_the various persons
of his staff. The Count entered the, court of the
Tuileries to the sound of- military music, and the
troops rendered him the usual honours. The re-
ception took place with great, splendour, in pre-
sence of the Ministers and chief officers of the Im-
perial household, when the ambassador in •presen t-
ing his letters of credence addressed the Emperor

as follows
:
"Sire,,-The Emperor, my august master, in appointing
me his ambassador to your Imperial Majesty, charged me
to devote all my care to cultivate the relations of friend-
ship which unite the two empires. I shall consider myself
happy if, at the end of my career, I have contributed to
cament between France and Para,,ia that, union which
secures to the general peace one of its most durable guaran-
tees. In the name of my august sovereign, I have the
honour of presenting to your Imperial Majesty the cre-
dentials with which I Am furnished ; and I venture to
hope that you will receive with kindness the homage of
my profound respect."
The Emperor replied in these terms :
"Monsieur le Comte—From the moment that the treaty
of peace was signed, my constant pre-occupation has been,
without weakening my ancient alliances, to alleviate by
friendly measures everything that might be rigorous in
the strict execution of certain conditions. I have learnt
with pleasure that my ambassador at §t. Petersburg,
animated with these sentiments, hai known how to acquire
the kindness of the Emperor Alexander. The same wel
come you may be assured awaits you here, since, indepen-
dently of your personal merits, you represent a ;sovereign
who so nobly knows how to subdue the sad remieisceaens
which are too often left by war, in order to think only of
the advantages of a peace cemented by relations of fi iend-
ship."
As soon as the reception had concluded, the am-
bassador was conveyed back to his hotel with the
same ceremonial that had marked his coining.
The Queen of England having expressed the in-
tention of presenting a commemorative medal to
the French troops who formed part of the expedi-
tionary corps in the Baltic, the Minister of War
has published a notice calling on all those who took
part in that expedition to send in before the 30th
inst. their.claims, supported by proper certificates,
to the.general commanding the division.
Marshal Pelissiur appears to be running a round
of fetes in Normandy. The one that perhaps
affurdea him the most pleasure was the banquet to.
which he was invited at Maromme, where he was
born the 18th Brumaire, year of the Republican
era. The Archbishop of Rouen, the President of
the Court and the Procnreur, Admiral Cecille, the
P' General commanding the division, and others were
present. The Marshal expressed himself as fol-
lows when his health was proposed :
" Gentlemen,—I have had the satisfaction this morn-
ing of informing you bow happy I felt at finding myself
among yeu—among my real fellow-citizens. 1 thank you
in the name of the army for your words of kindnes,, for
the success of the army is the palladium of true libtrty
and social order. For my own part I shall always
remember your cordial reception, and it is with profound
emotion that in this poor chapel, where I received the
waters of baptism, I have this morning been enabled
with you all to invoke the benediction of the Most High
on our Sovereign, on him who has saved and protected
France. Vtre l'Empereur 1"

BELGIUM.
The usual grand dinner given by the King of
the Belgians on the occasion of the opening of the
Chambers has been postponed, in consequences of
the Duke de Brabant being much fatigued by his
journey from England. The steamer only arrived
in the middle of the night at Ostend, and the train
which conveyed his Royal Highness to BrUssels
did not get in until six in the morning of Tuesday,
the day of the royal sitting.
The Belgian Senate met after the royal sitting,
and again elected the Prince de L'gue their presi-
dent. The Marquis de Lodes proposed that a
message should bo transmitted to the prince with
as little delay as possible, to inform him of his re .
election, and to express the wishes of the 111 otnbo rs
for his speedy recovery. This proposition was re-
ceivedwith loud applause and adopted unanimously.
M. d'Omalius-dlia.lloy was then named first vice-
president, and M. de Renesie second ; and after
the usual measures adopted at the commencement
of a session the proceedings terminated. The
Chamber of Representatives also held a sitting,
and, after the usual nomnation of the bureaux,
several electoral proceedings were verified and
some of the new members admitted. The next
day another short sitting was held, and the rerna;n-
ing members took the oaths and their seats. The
other proceedings merely consisted of the nomina-
tion of questors and other matters of routine.

SPAIN.
The Madrid papers of the 9th have reached tl3.
The Gazette contains a circular from the Minister
of the interior to the governors of provinces, Fat-
ting forth the manner in which the decrees of 1845
relative to the press, which havebeen re-established,
are to be carried out. Amongst other thing, te
governors are directed to prohibit the publication of
controversies on religious subjects, except with per-
mission of the bishops ; and ofanything " inconsist eat
with religious respect for the sacred person of the
monarch or the throne ;" or attacking the right of
property, or any other of the bases of society ; or,
lastly, reflecting offensively on foreign sovereign.

A.
royal decree in the Gazette annuls certain enact
S. uteri is in a circular of the 3d September, 1854, sus' •
pending nomii a ions to vacant cures and depriving
bishops of som:-.) of their patronage. A second de-
o el nominates General Co toner Captain-General:
of Porto Rico ; and a thitd appoints General Las-
sala to the Military Governorship of Cadiz. The
Gazette also contains royel decrees which sup•
press the Council of Admiralty and re-estab-
lish it in another form, under the name of
" direction of the navy," and which make the
long expected nominations of the new Royal
Council•of State, M. Martinez de la Rosa being
appointed Vice-Pret.iclent of it. The Espana says
th:,t,the Queen, as a mark of special esteem, had
presented the Duke de Valencia (Narvaez) with
the finest horse in her stables, and had at the same
time written him a flattering autograph letter. •
The Queen ordered the equerry charged to present
the horse to tell tho duke that it lie did not like
the animal, he might exchange it for any other she
possessed. The lioja Autografa says that the
Civil Governor of Madrid has forbidden the dis-
cussion of politics in coffee-houses and other piacos-
of public resort, and has made the owners of such
establishments responsible for the execution of his
orders. A slight decline in the price of wheat and
other grain had taken place in the market of
Madrid.

A. letter from Helsingfors, in the _Austrian Ga
v.:He, says :—" The activity displayed in the itn-
rovernent of our, navy continues in spite of the
advanced season. It is natural that Sweden should
be alarmed by these measures, and the Govern-
ment of that country has determined not only
on carrying out a series of fortifications in
the interior, which will form a system of
central defence, but will likewise reinforce the
€.xisting forte. The firearms of the army will
likewise, be changed ; and, in a few years,"
the whole of the Swedis army will be armed with-
rifles. An-order for 5,000 rifles for conical:balls
has already been given in Belgium. The stall-
officers of the Swedish army are at present occu-
pied in- drawing up a tninnte map of Sweden." •

The Nord, says :—" According to accounts which
we receive from Trieste, King Otho arrived there
on the Bth, and immediately embarked on board
the Austrian war steamer Prince Eugene. In the •
suite of his Majesty was NI. Notaras, the marshal
of his Court ; Col. Botzaris, his aide-de-camp ;
and
Prince Mourousi, his orderly officer. On his arri
val the King was received at the gdvernment
by Baron de Mertens, the civil and military gover-
nor ; Rear-Admiral Baron de Bujacovitch, and all
the military and naval officers then at Trieste.
Chevalier de Giachenesi, the Greek consul,: was
also present to pay his respects to his MajestY..
Followed by this brilliant cortege, King Otbo pro'
ceeded on board the steamer, which left tbe per,
under saint es from the forts and the vessels'of war.
