FRANCE.

The Emperor received to-day the manufacturers
who have come up from the departments, and con-
versed with them on the great subject of the day
—the reforms in the tariff.
The effect of the Emperor's letter in the depart-
ments has been most favourable. Accounts lion
Havre inform us that the principal merchants in
that town hailed the letter as a great event, and that
flags were raised as a mark of rejoicing precisely as
after the battles of Magenta and Solferino.
The Pope's protest against the pamphlet "La
Pape et le Congres" is said positively to have been
brought from Rome by the Nuncio's Secretary. If
the protest has no effect in drawing forth a dis-
avowal of it, the French Government are to be
called upon to recall their army from Rome. The
resolution to this effect was agreed to in a full
Council of Cardinals, at which such unanimity pre-
vailed that those members of the Sacred College
who had most widely and longest dissented from
Cardinal Antonelli became reconciled to him.
According to these accounts there was unusual
accord among all to defend the territory by all
means in their power. It is not said whether the
protest has as yet been presented, though it is very
probable.

ITALY.
The Cologne Gazette contains the following :
"Tile attitude of Prussia and Russia merits
examination. Some persons have lately_said that
they were both drawing towards Austria, and that
those powers would unite in opposing French ten-
dencies in Italy. The falsity of these conjectures
is simply shown by the fact that the views of those
three powers on the *solution of the question of
Central Italy are completely different; for, whilst
Austria desi:es the restoration of the Dukes and
the restitution of Romagna to the Pope, Prussia
and Russia do not think that the restoration is
possible, do not wish for a kingdom of Etruria, and
draw towards the views of England. in desiring'
the annexation of the Duchies to Sardinia."

ACCIDENT TO SIR H. RorEß.—On Saturday an
accident of a serious nature occurred to Sir H. Roper, of
Stoke House, near Chichester. He was out with the hounds,
when his horse stumbled and threw him with great vio-
lence against a tree, dislocating his shoulder and severely
injuring him about the head, it being at first supposed that
his skull was fractured. When taken up it was thought that
he was dead, as he was in a perfectly unconscious state.
He was removed home in a fly,—Brighton Guardian.
SAVOY.—The new governor of Savoy, M. Orso-
Serra, on receiving officially the visit of the municipal coun-
cil of Chambery, has stated to them that it has never boon
proposed at Turin to cede Savoy to Franca. At the time
of his appointment he formally declared to the Ministers of
the Piedmontese Cabinet that he would not accept the post
offgovernor of Savoy if there was the remotest idea of ced-
ing it to France.

THE LATE eIR WILLIAM PEEL.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Raving read the letter which appeared in
the Times relative to the well at Cawnpore and
Haveloek's grave at Luoknow, I should wish to
known if anything is about being done to mark
the resting-place of the late Sir William Peel, cer-
tainly one of the most distinguished men who took
part in the Indian struggle. An officer lately re-
turned from India has informed me that the grave
(which has greatly 'fallen in) is now only to be
discovered by a wooden cross, with the inscription
nearly effaced. A subscription was set on foot in
India soon after his death to erect a suitable monu-
ment, but, as it would appear, without success.
Surely, if neither the Government nor his family
will do anything to perpetuate the memory of this
gallant man, his own profession and the public at
large ought. Yours, &c.
