prescriptive solemnities.

The Paris correspondent of the Times (second
edition) says :
. " Premature intelligence of the withdrawal
from Naples of the English and French
Legations, and of the sending thither of a
naval squadron, was telegraphed yesterday from
London to Paris, and produced a fall in the funds
of about a quarter per cent. The above
statement, however, although at present un-
founded, may very probably prove a
.shadow
of coming events, especially as regards the
interruption of diplomatic intercourse with the
Neapolitan Government, which it is thought will
surely take place. It is difficult to predict the
extent of the effect which this unfriendly demon-
stration will have on the public of Naples ; but
if things are carried further, and French and
English ships of war appear in the bay, many
think that an insurrection may be expected.
The King appears to be taking every precaution
in anticipation of rebellion against his Govern.
went. The accounts that reach us from Naples
are discordant as to the temper of the nation,
but, after carefully weighing them and making
allowance for partisan statements, one remains
pretty well convinced that great discontent and a
strong revolutionary spirit exist there. How, in-
deed, could it be otherwise under so oppressive
and tyrannical a system ? We shall see what effect
the withdrawal of the Ambassadors has . upon
King Ferdinand.
,If none, England and France
must necessarily, one would think, take a fur-
ther step, or their attitude will hardly be worthy
of their position. The recall of tho. Ambassadors
is here considered as beyond a doubt. An At-
taché d'Ambassade left this morning with de-
spatches for Naples, believed to contain orders to
M. Brenier to demand his passports. There is
talk of .an ultimatum to be taken to Naples by a
fleet, but this is a mere rumour. The question be-
comes very interesting and important, and natu-
rally begins to excite a good deal of attention.

The Paris Correspondent of the Morning Post
(third edition) says :
" The latest offiqial despatches from Naples
do not report any material change in the state of
affairs. It was supposed that the King
had communicated with the Austrian Govern-
ment, as. M. Hubner, whilst declaring he had
no political mission, offered to be the medium
of communication between Naples and Vienna.
King Ferdinand, it is said, had been ad-
vised by his own Cabinet to refer his difficulties
with England and France to the arbitration of
the other great Powers. Should the King adopt
such an idea, I think they will find that the
Cabinets of England and France will refuse to
treat with any third Power. Naples was per-
fectly tranquil. There was considerable activity
in the army, and orders had been given to pre.
pare nailiiiary stores ready for delivery."

The Risorgimento of Turin, of the 18th inst.,
publishes the following letter :

"SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE 10,000 sluszcrs.

".We have received from aJnoa an 11th list, con-
taining the names of 500 su.bscriberi, accompanied by
the following letter.:-",'Basle, Switzerland, September 1.
"'Sir,--Of all ,the subscriptions, Called. national,
which have hitherto been opened in Piedmont, none i 4
more entitled to that name than the one you have pro-
posed in your patriotic journal for the purchase of
10,000 muskets, t•) be given to the first Italian prOvince
which will rise in arms against the common enemy.
Consequently, and it being my conviction that Italy
()tight to assert herself her independence, and that
it is the duty of every Italian citizen,, whether he inhabits
the country or resides abroad, assist his brethren, by
every possible means, in armin4 themselves azainst the
oppressors of 'his coun-ry, I request you, Mr. Editiir, to
inscribe my name on the list of that eminently national
'llitibSerlptinn for 150 f., the pricy of a Swiss carbine, which
I will shortly forward to the committee by a safe con-
veyance.—l, remain, gr,o

FRANCE.
PARIS, SUNDAY EYENING.

The entire number of arrests made on account
of the plot discovered against the life of the Em-
peror is 49. Some of them were made subse-
quently to the night of the 19th instant. A por-
tion of the prisoners were seized , when assembled
together, and others were taken at their own places
of residence.

Establishments are in process of formation ,at
the French settlement of New Caledonia for tho
reception of political and other criminals.

It is said that the Prince de Ligne, the Belgian
ambassador to the coronation of the' Czar, has re-
fused the decoration of St. Alexander Newski, on
account of the higher order of St. Andrew having
been conferred on Prince Esterhazy and Count deb
Morny.
_ . _ . . .

The illonif Atr de e Armie contradicts a statement
that has appeared in other papers, to the effect that
the great expedition against the Kabyles, planned
for the spring, was to take place immediately, in
consequence of the recent aggression of those moun-
taineers. It is true that two divisions, those of
Gen. Yusuf and Renault, have been put in motion,
and will probably make some incursions into the
enemy's country, and it is impossible to say exactly
to what extent their reconnaissances may be car-
ried ; but the projected expedition will take place
at the time originally appointed.
Tao subjoined telegraphs have been received in

- ." BERLIN', Sept. 19.—The changes in the Russian

POLITICAL TRIALS IN NAPLES.

NAPLES, SEPT. 15.

This morning the political trial of Mignonna and
company will 'be renewed. A . hasty and 'unex-
pected hearing was given on Saturday -the 6th, but
only two witnesses were examined, just to coin-,
plate the case for the defence, before the Attorney-
General proceeds to make his re4uisitoria. Though
the session of the 6th therefore, was simply formal,
still some evidence was elicitcd of a moat damn-
ing character, showing what a system of ab-
solutism is pursued here, and how slight
the regard paid to the much-boasted laws
of' the country One of the accused, Signor
Mauro, had called in his defence Captain Acuti,
comandante of the Bagni of Procida in 1855. This
witness deposed that in political affairs Mauro had
been quiet, and had not the power to' join any
criminal association, because he had been separated
from the others in consequence of his want of reli-
gion. Many questions were put to Acuti by others
of the accused regarding their conduct, which were
answered in a similar mariner, when at length the
president asked him if it were true that he had
ordered a great number of blows to be inflicted in
one day on the penalcouvictsof Procida. This ques-
tion was suggested by an observation made by
Mauro on one of the previous days of trial, to the
effect that certain letters attributed to De Angelis
