The Paris correspondent of the Times (seconi

edition) says :

eve its genuineness is not doubted in official

quarters.

" The rumour that strong reinforcements were to
be sent to the army of occupation of Rome is, I
am told, unfounded. It was even said that the
division of General Rostolan was to proceed from
Marseilles for that object ; but I am assured that
the present force is not to be increased by a single
company. It is true that 800 men, taken from
various depots, are going to Italy, but it is merely
to fill up the places of the same number to -IA hora
six months' leave of absence has been granted."

The Times' Vienna correspondent (second ed

tion) says :—" The Anglo-French demonstration
against Naples is still the principal topic of conver-
sation inVienna, and great is the impatience of the
public to learn whether there is any truth in the
report that a Sardinian squadron is to accompany
the ships of the two great Powers to the Neapolitan
coast. It is not likely that the King of Naples
will at once accept the ultimatum of the Western
Powers, and as it is felt that the latter cannot
withdraw their ships until they have obtained satis-
faction, a most unpleasant complication of the
Italian question is expected. It is not in my power
to communicate any facts which would tend to
show the state of public feeling in the Austro-
Italian provinces, but perfectly reliable information
has been given me that the fidelity of the natives
of Lombardy cannot be counted on. The inhabi-
tants of Venice are naturally much milder than
their Lombard neighbours, but still they would
hardly be so quiet and docile as they are were it
not notorious that no attempt at insurrection has
any chance of success. It is already settled that
their Majesties shall go to Venice in November
next, and their journey will probably be extended
to Milan, if all is quiet in Italy."

A letter from Genoa, of the 24th inst., says :
" The fact of an Anglo-French squadron proceed-
ing to Naples, to oblige Ring Ferdinand to make
concessions, has caused considerable excitement

throughout Italy, the more so as the people were
beginning to fear that the Western Powers had
abandoned that intention. Austria having failed
to induce King Ferdinand to yield, and wishing to
save him from an impending catastrophe, intended
to interfere at the same time as England and France,
under the pretext that she was an Italian Power ;
but as Piedmont might, for the same reason,
claim a similar right, and as the sight of an lb-

Tian flag would rouse the Neapolitan and Sicilian
populations, Austria has changed her mind, and no
longer insists on interfering at Naples. The only
concessions demanded from King Ferdinand are,
that he shall grant a political amnesty and reform
his police system. Others assert that he has been
asked to modify the Customs legislation, but this
report requires confirmation. In the meantime an
extraordinary movement is observed in the depart-
ments of War and Marine at Turin. The Pied-
montese Government evidently wishes to be pre-
pared for every contingency. The difference be-
tween Piedmont and Tuscany does not appear to
be in a fair way of adjustment. The news of the
expedition against Naples had likewise made a
deep impression in the Grand Duchy."

The British Government has recently brought
forward a plan for the settlement of the Monte-
negrin question which finds favour with Austria,
and, as is related, with France. The plan is, that
certain lowland districts, now belonging to Turkey
Proper, should be ceded to Montenegro, which
principality shall then publicly recognise the suze-
rainete of the Porte. In a word, it is proposed to
give the mountaineers the means of living like
honest and peaceable citizens, and to place them
on the same footing with the Porte as are the
Sorvians.

VIENNA, MONDAY, SEPT. 29, NOON.

The Ministerial Prussian Correspondence states
that Russia has ceded Bolgrad. to Moldavia, but

the news is incorrect.

Baron Budberg presented to-day, in a private
audience of the Emperor, the letters accrediting

,he Russian Minister.

There is nothing new from Naples.
The Boursi3 is firmer. Metalliquos of the
National Loan are higher.

BERLIN, TUESDAY.

The prosecution of Lindenberg began to-day.

The representatives of all the journals were spe-
cially excluded. An adjournment has taken place

LATEST id E Ws.

The Paris correspoident of the Morning Post
(Second Edition) says:—
"The Government; of England and France,
desirous, I am info, ned, of exhausting every
chance which might invent a hostile demonstra-
tion in the Bay of Na3les, will not take any final
step until they are coivinced that the King and
Neapolitan Cabinet are determined to brave
European opinion and defy England and France.
In the course of a day or two, I am told, the
Cabinets of London and Paris must be in a
position to apply the united policy they have
determined to carry out with regard to the
Neapolitan difficulties.

"Orders were sent to Verona a few days since for
several regiments and some batteries of artillery
to hold themselves in readiness to march at a
moment's notice. These troops ale destined to
reinforce those now in the Legations."

" The Ministerial journals of Paris will, no
doubt in pursuance of instructions from official
quarters, treat the circular of Prince Gortschakoff
as if it was not genuine ; or, if it be really the
composition of the person whose name it bears, that
Prince Gortschakoff alone is responsible for it.
It will be alleged that there is internal evi-
dence showing that no official hand could have
drawn it up. A comparison will be made be-
tween the notes of Count Nesselrode, charac-
terised as they wer3 by courtesy, dignity, and
skill, and the essay of Prince Gortschakoff, in
which words and expressions are found not genc-.
rally used in official documents. While the
paper itself wiil be touched on in a tone of incre-
dulity, the topics mentioned in it will be treated
more seriously. It will be said that it would be
strange for Russia to pay such particular attention
to Naples when no communication had been made

to her on that question by the French Government,
and about which she possesses no more information

than the public generally ; and with reference to
Greece it will be said that the moment when the
representatives of the Powers are about to delibe-
rate on the condition of that country, with a
view to its organisation, would not be the most
propitious for Russia to hold the language attri-
buted to her. On the whole, the Gortschakoff
despatch, which contains some expressions which
he is accustomed to use, will be considered a%
hardly emanating from authority, though I be-

owing to General Von Gerlach, who was sani-

moned as a witness, not being present.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 19.—There is a com-
plete stand-still in politics. The question of the
Principalities .is alone uppermost in every mind,
but nothing will be done until the discussion on
the union be terminated at Paris.
Sir Henry Bulwer left this morning for Broussa,
with the intention of making inquiries in the
neighbourhood.

Sri John Macneil, C.E., and Major-General
Chesney have arrived, in the interest of the Eu-
phrates railway.
Several engineers have arrived for the survey of
another railway, that from Rassova to Kostendje.
You know that in the beginning of this year a fir-
man was obtained for the construction of the canal
of Kostendje. The project was found impractica-
ble, but as the firman leaves the possessor
the option between a canal and a railway the latter
has been decided upon. However impracticable
as a canal it promises well enough us a railway,
the country through which the line is to pass being
very fertile, although rather thinly populated. But
it seems more reliance is placed on transit than on
local traffic, and the chances certainly are that the
exports of the higher Danube will take that direc-
tion.

FRANCE.
PARIS, MONDAY EVENING.
The Bourse, absorbed by the financial embarrass-
ments of all the countries of Europe, has for some
time past paid little attention to diplomatic ques-
tions.

To-day, however, the circular of Prince Gort-
schakoff has produced a very powerful impression,
and has again forced down the prices of all secu-
rities.

The Moniteur de la Flotte contradicts a statement
which has been,made by several journals, that no
more convicts are to be sent to Cayenne, and that
the whole of those now there will be removed to
New Caledonia. "The great distance of the latter
from the mother country would," says the Moni-
teur de la Platte, "produce financial impediments
to such a step, even if no objections existed."

AUSTRIA.
Another letter from Vienna, of the 25th, in the
Cologne Gazette, says :—" It is stated, in well-
informed circles, that the last accounts from Na-
ples are more favourable, and give reason to hope
that the King will acoept the ultimatum of the
Western Powers. His acceptance, it is said, will
be accompanied by a manifesto, in which his Ma-
jesty will point out the motives which have in-
duced him to yield. It is thought that this docu-
ment will be couched somewhat in the form of a
protest. Orders were sent to Verona a few days
since for several regiments and some batteries of
artillery to hold themselves in readiness to march
at a moment's notice. These troops are des-
tined to reinforce those now in the legations. The
Danish envoy, M. de Billow, has had a second con-
ference with Count de Bud, but he has not deli-
vered any written document to our Cabinet, nor
any letter from the King of Denmark to the
Emperor."

A letter from Vienna of the 23d says :—" Our
situation in the Lombard and Venetian provinces
is incontestably identical with that of the Neapo-
litan Government towards its subjects ; and, con-
sequently, the first spark of civil war and insur-
rection in the Two Sicilies would cause a confla-
gration in our Italian possessions. You could
not form an idea of the sensation produced
here amongst the public and in Governmental
regions by the resolution of the two great
maritime powers to send a strong squadron
to Naples. Count de Buol, in accordance
with orders from the Emperor, has hastened
to address an identical note, strongly worded, to
the Court of Paris and to the government of Lon-
don, calling their serious attention to the grave
responsibility which they may incur by carrying
out their coercive demonstrations against the capi-
tal of the Two Sicilies. The note which Baron de
oarqueney recently presented to the Count Buol
was drawn up in such terms as intimate a certain
delay in sending the combined squadron to Naples,
but the news received yesterday in this city presages
the immediate execution of this measure. It is be-
lieved here that Gen. de Martini, our representative
at Naples, has received not onlyfrom Count de Buol,
but personally from the Emperor, the most positive
verbal instructions to act efficaciously on the minds of
the king and of the members of the royal family. These
instructions even go the length of authorising our
envoy to favour the project which is ascribed to
King Ferdinand of abdicating in favour of his son,
the Duke of Calabria."

ness. These letters will not be published till after the;
trial. The Federal Council has taken note of this cote
respondence."
