his duties as a Correspondent, nominated to
that post for that very purpose, yonder in
Northern Africa, at the actual seat of war between
the Moors and the Spaniards, that the representa-
tive of our contemporary particularised the asser-
tions that appear to have caused so much dis-
quietude to the soul of the hon. member for
Dungannon. That disquietude, however, we should
certainly suppose, must by this time have been
ended, by Lord JOHN'S very emphatic words of re-

The explanations given last evening in the
House of Commons by the noble lord the Foreign
Secretary, in answer to a series of questions, in
regard to a variety of subjects—but especially his
explanations in reply to the inquiries of the hon.
member forDungarvon—were in thehighest degree
satisfactory. It may still, it is true, remain doubtful
as to whether the three other querists were an-
swered by Lord JOHN in all respects as explicitly
and definitively. Mr. GRIFFITHS may yet retain
some of his previous notions—modified but not dis-
sipated—as to the policy, or at any rate as to the
perfect decorum, of Sir JAMES HuDioN, her MA-
JESTY'S Minister at Turin, in regard to the interrup-
tion of the organisation of "La Nazione Armata,"
under the auspices of General GARIBALDI. Colonel
KNOX may still conceive that the Government
might easily enough have so arranged the prelimi-
naries of the Commercial Treaty with France that
the terms of it might have been in the possession
of Parliament earlier than Monday next, as the
date of its conditional ratification. The hon. mem-
ber, for Bridgwater again, may yet remain not
altogether satisfied about the moderation of the re-
vised scale of the military and maritime arma-
ments of our Imperial ally across the Chan-
nel. But Mr. MAGUIRE can hardly, we
should imagine, in reason, still persist in
attaching any credit whatsoever to the rumours
flying about the Spanish camp in Morocco—
rumours malignantly depreciatory of the character
and conduct of Mr. DRUM3IOND HAY, her MAJES-
TY'S Consul at Tangier—rumours of which we
should probably have never heard anything but
for their repetition (as such—as mere rumours) by
the Times' Special Correspondent.t. It is particu-
larly worthy of note in first place—as in fact
we have but just now intimated—that the state-
ments made in the camp of the Spaniards deroga-
tory to Mr. HAY in his official capacity were speci-
fically mentioned as remarks that had come to his
knowledge hap-hazard by the Times'CCorespondent.rrespondent.
And our contemporary hag this mor •
rung frankly
endorsed the counter-statement made last evening
by Lord JOHN RUSSELL. The limes distinctly ob-
serving that—" As a matter of fact, Mr. NIAGUIRE
might have spared himself the trouble of 'main.-
his question, as these malicious rumours, to the
existence of which in the Spanish camp our special
correspondent in Morocco has borne faithful testi-
mony, were already abundantly refuted by the
publication of the correspondence between the Bri-
tish and Spanish Governments respecting the expc-

THE SUN, LONDON, SAT URDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 4, 1860:

LATEYI NE \‘

The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

PARIS, SATURDAY.

The Moniteur of to-day publishes a report of the
Minister of War, Marshal Randon, announcing
that, in conformity with the intentions of the Em-
peror, he will submit a project of law to the Legis-
lative Body reducing the contingent of the class
1859 from 140,000 to 100,000 men.

TURIN, FEB. 3.

The journals of this day publish an Austrian
ordnance concerning the enlistment of volunteers
for the Neapolitan army. Sardinian officers have
left for Bologna to organise the Artillery, Cavalry,
and Engineers of the army of Central Italy. Ar-
rests continue at Venice to a very great extent,
and spread terror among the inhabitants.

ROME, JAN. 28 (NIA MARSEILLES).
The encyclical letter of his Holiness was distri-
buted yesterday amongst the cardinals.
The report of an approaching departure of the
French army is unfounded. No measures have
been taken for effecting the evacuation of Rome
by the French troops, as the Pope does not wish to
compromise the tranquillity of the city. His Holi-
ness will remain here.

The Mazzini party is said to be active. General
Goyon has taken measures for preventing any
manifestations. Numerous detachments of French
soldiers patrol the streets during the night. Signor
Galenga has been expelled.

The Pope has traversed a part of the city. On
his Holiness passing through the promenade of
Pincio the crowd was immense.

Trade is ■tagnant, strangers are leaving, and
bankruptcies are frequently occurring.
The municipality is actively preparing for the
new election of coancillors.

An address from th• town of Perugia, covered
with 609 signatures, has been sent to the Emperor
Napoleon. Signori Massino, Fiano, Prince Doria,
and Rospegligni, have signed the address.

PARIS, FEB. 3.

The Pays of this evening says :—" It appears
certain that the question of the annexation of Cen-
tral Italy will be subordinate to the result of the
universal suffrage. All the Powers are agreeing as
to the propriety of that measure, the early applica-
tion of which will positively make known the state
of public opinion in Italy."
The Pays also contains the following :—" The
statement of an approaching departure of the
French troops from Rome is completely false."

TURIN, FEB.. 3.

The French Government has ordered Prince
Latour d'Auvergne to prolong his stay at Turin for
some time after the arrival of Baron Talleyrand, in
order to support the counsels of moderation which
Napoleon 111. has instructed him to submit to
Count Cavour.

VIENNA, FEB. 3.

General Crenneville, one of the members of the
Austro-Sardinian commission at Peschiera for the
regulation of the boundary line, has returned to
Vienna.

The commission has agreed on all points, except
one, being unable to fulfil literally the stipulation
of the treaty of Zurich, according to which the
frontier between Le Grazie and Scorzarolo was to
follow a straight line. This would have rendered
it necessary to divide certain places into two parts.
1 The commission has therefore proposed a system
of compensation, which is first to be approved of by
the two Governments before being applied.
