The Paris Correspondent of the Times (second
edition), in his letter of yesterday, says :--
"This day, in all probability, the note of the
allies will have been communicated by Baron
Brenier to the King of Naples. The repeated
assurance is given that the note in question
is couched in very moderato and conciliatory
terms. The effect no one supposes will be what
France and England desire namely, com-
pliance with the earnest admonitions aldressed
by them to King Ferdinand. The instruc-
tions of Baron Brenier are, that if his Majesty
persists in refusing, he is to demand his passports,
and withdraw with the -whole of his Legation.
Similar instructions have, no doubt, been sent to
the British Minister. With respect to the fleets, it
is stated that the French squadron will proceed to
Malta to join the British, and that both will await
there the result of the last note and the final
answer of the King ; and if it prove, as is anti-
cipated, unfavourable, they are then to proceed
towards, but not to, the Italian coast. On this
point, however, there exists some difference ; yet
it is evident that ships must be at hand to receive
such French and British residents as may not con-
sider it safe to stay after the departure of their
respective Legations. It, is, however, believed
that the consequences will be pacific —at any
rate, that nothing will be done to provoke a revo-
,ution either in Sicily or Naples."

The Vienna correspondent of the Times (second
edition), in his letter date]. Oct. 12, writes as
follows :

"The Governmental organs of the Austrian
press make not the slightest mention either
of General von Martini or of his mission, but
tke following reliable communication as to the
actual state of the Neapolitan question has
this morning reached nw The King posi-
tively refuses to pledge himself to make the
concessions required, and you may there-
' fore soon expect to hear that the ships of one or
both of the Western Powers have appeared in the
Bay of Naples.' A north German paper, which
is generally well. informed on Russian matters,
states that there is a very considerable difference
in the wording of the special Notes not long since
addressed by the St. Petersburg Cabinet to the
French and Austrian Governments. The Rus-
sian Government almost warns' the French
Cabinet against sharing in an expedition which
it says would be a violation of all international
law, but in his note to the Austrian Govern-
ment, Prince Gortschakoff presupposes that it
disapproves of the measures which the Western
Powers propose to take against the King of
Naples, and accordingly calls on it to oppose them.
That this Government obeyed the summons, and
strongly urged the French Cabinet to make a
retrograde movement in the Neapolitan affair, is
a notorious fact, but it is believed to have met
With but partial success. The Emperor Napoleon
consented to delay the departure of the expedi-
tion, but there is no reason to suppose that he
propked not to make common cause with Eng-
land."

The Paris correspondent of the Mona,lig Post
dated yesterday,
(second edition), in his letter

says :
" It is announced from Vienna that despatches
had reached there from Naples. Of course there
are hopes' of a pacific termination of the Nea-
politan difficulties, and those hopes' are, as
usual, forwarded to Paris. The courier who, I
presume, took despatches recalling the members
of her Majesty's mission ought to reach Naples
this evening. If this act, with a similar proceed-
ing on the part of France, does not result in ob-
taining concessions from tho King, then I hear
the fleets are to leave—that is, as soon as tele-
graphic intelligence to that effect reaches London
and Paris. Meanwhile the French squadron rests
at Toulon, and everything is unchanged.
" In my letter of yesterday r took occasion to
inform you that since the arrival of the Emperor
in Paris the questions relating to foreign affairs
had ' assumed a more decided attitude, and that
the action of England and France would be more
united and decided. Such is the wish of the
Emperor, I am assured ; and if his
tMas withjes
commands are carried out our . difficulties
Russia and the King of Naples will„ ere long be
m
brought to a satisfactory cencluon.

A letter from Vienna, in the Wartinfrg Grazette,

says :---
" The Neapolitan Government continues its
armaments with the greatest activity. The war
reserves have been called out, which will bring
up the force of the infantry to nearly 'lO,OOO. A
special credit has been opened to General Filan-
gieri, the chief of the artillery, who is occupied
in replacing all the old guns on the batteries by
now ones. The same activity is displayed in the
naval department. The, King has ordered that
all the vessels of war shall be fitted out for ser-
vice, and that operation is going on so rapidly
that in a short time 2 liue-of-battle ships, 15
sailing and steam frigates, 2 corvettes, and several
small steamers, and a great number of gun-boats
will be ready to leave the Neapolitan ports."

According to the Ost Deutsche Post the Am-
bassadors of the yVestern Powers at Naples have
in all probability by this time been recalled ; but
the fleets will only proceed to Malta, where they
will remain in observation. The same journal
adds that tlre difficulty is in a fair way of
settlement.
