The report of the Austrian Gazette that the
King of Naples had written autograph letters to
Queen Victoria and the Emperor Napoleon, offer-
ing to submit the Neapolitan question to the
Paris Congress, is untrue.

A letter from Ajaccio, of the 6th, in the Journal
de la Corse, says :
" There are now lying in this port two English
line-of-battle ships, the Duke of Wellington and
the Conqueror, and two corvettes. The liners are
the object of general admiration, and those who
have visited them speak in the highest terms of
the politeness they met with on board. The ad-
miral (Dundas) and the officers have met with the
heartiest welcome on landing from the authorities
and the inhabitants. The Prefect has visited the
admiral on board, and Was received by a salute,
and this evening the admiral and the officers of the
•quadron are to be present at a dinner and ball
given at the Prefecture."

The Paris correspondent of the Morning Pose
(second edition), in his letter dated yesterday,

says :

" A Queen's messenger has passed through
Paris for Naples with despatches. It is quite
possible that he takes orders for the recall of her
Majesty's mission, but I am not able to say that
such is positively the case. The latest news from
Naples informs us, by telegraph, that preparations
for defence against attack continues to be made
with the greatest activity.
" According to advices which reach Paris this
day from Constantinople, dated October 2, a de-
tachment of Ruskan troops still occupy the Ser-
pents' Island ; and it is further declared that
some French ships of war will enter the Black
Sea. If so we may conclude that an approach is
being made by France' towards the policy of Eng-
land with regard to the Serpents' Island question;
an event of no ordinary interest, for it must be
clear to the most superficial observer that
Russia seeks to evade the treaty just in propor-
tion as she calculates on any divergence of views
between England and France. There seems little
prospect of our quitting the Black Sea for any
length of time, for Russia has ordered 20 steamers
for,the " commerce" of those waters, whilst all
the world knows three are quite sufficient. As
the object of the Czar is to evade the treaty,
England will be compelled to keep up a police
force to watch her movements both in the Caspian
and Black Seas."
