CORRESPONDENCE FRO X 1 PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

PARIS, Friday Evening.
It is officially stated that the Treaty of Peace
between Austria and Italy was signed on Wednes-
day at Vienna. The financial difficulty which de-
layed the execution of the treaty has been arranged,
exactly in the way I have already mentioned.
By order of the Emperor, Generals Waubert de
Genies and Fave, two of his Majesty's aides-de-
camp, have left Paris with the mission of examining
the former in the department of the Loire and the
latter in the Allier, the disasters caused by the in-
undations, and to distribute in the name of the Em-
peror assistance to the most necessitous inhabitants
who have suffered from the calamity.
The Moniteur states that its letters from Buenos
Ayres do net mention any new engagement between
the troops of General Lopez and the allies, but
they speak of exhaustion among the latter, who find
it very difficult to provide horses and provisions.
The Siecle has some forcible observations upon
the conclusion of the treaty between Austria and
Italy. That journal says :
" Venetia approaches the termination of her long
sufferings. In a few days all the soldiers of Austria
will have evacuated Venice, Verona, and Mantua.
The Italian colours will be suspended over the for-
tresses which were for so long a time the abode of
foreign oppressors. The people of Venice, so great,
so heroic in the struggle, so firm, so admirably re-
signed in misfortune, will again be free to dispose
of their own destinies. This is one of the most
striking triumphs of right over might which has
been witnessed by the present generation.
" Venice free ! Who would have said or even
hoped for such a result a year ago? In spite of tem-
porary checks, democratic opinion dominates over
the:world. Many assist it in spite of themselves.
What we say to-day about Venetia we may have
ere long to say of Warsaw."
The 7urin Gazette says, that immediately after
the signature of the Treaty the Italian Government
will dissolve the Chamber. After the plebiscite in
Venetia the electoral colleges of the kingdom will
be convoked, and the Treaty will be submitted for
approbation to the complete and enlarged Parlia-
ment. An extraordinary meeting of the Senate will
be summoned to try Admiral Persano, and give an
opinion upon the inexplicable disaster of Lissa.
The director of the Et:eminent was summoned to
appear before the tribunal of Correctional Police,
for having discussed the right of the hospitals to a
portion of the receipts of the theatres, and for
having treated of subjects of political economy.
Should there be a conjemnation, according to the
present law the paper will be liable to suppression.
The same dull, foggy, heavy weather continues.
The sun has not been visible for several days.
The Sanitary Conference which assembled at
Constantinople to consider the measures proper to
preserve Europe from the invasion of the cholera,
terminated its labours on the 26th ult. His High-
ness Ali-Pasha, Minister of Foreign Affairs, an-
nounced that the proceedings were closed.
The waters are receding in Italy. The route of
Mount Cenis is again free. The postal communi-
cation has been resumed, but will for the present
experience a little delay because the transport of
the letters is for the present effected by mules from
St. Jean to Lanslebourg.
A calf has been born in the commune of La
Chapelle Basse Mer (Brittany) which has but three
paws. The fourth is on the back and is perfectly
articulated. The tail is also on the back. It is
only 4 inches long and resembles the tail of a dog.
A new piece by M. Victorien Sardou has been

produced at the Gymnase with entire success. It
is entitled Nos Boys Villageois, and as the
title indicates forms an amusing illustration of the

petty annoyances and troubles of village life. The
piece is in five acts. The first three turn upon the

vents which take place g, down in our village,"
but the fourth act takes evidently a dramatic turn,
tnd the sympathy of the audience is excited in

favour of the romantic heroism of a lover, who
allows himself to be treated as a robber in order to
iave a woman's honour. Various startling incidents
are introduced, but the plot is worked out happily
and skilfully. The acting is admirable, indeed so
effective as to make much of occasional weak points
in the dialogue. The chief actors are Lafont,
Arnal, Pradeau, Lesueur, and Berton. Mdlle.
Pierson looked and played a peasant girl admirably,
and Mdlle. Delaporte and Madame Fromentin
played their respective characters effectively. " All

the actors" were called for, and so was the author,
but Lafont stepped forward and quaintly said,
" Gentlemen, according to his custom, M. Sardou is
absent from the theatre." There were more bravos,
and as Sardou could not come, the audience re -
called Arnal, who seemed almost overcome with the
ovation with which he was greeted.

An immense cheese has been exhibited at the fair
at Saratoga. The quantity of milk used for it was
the day's produce of 7,000 cows. It is three feet
high, and six feet in diameter. The intention is to
send it to the Great Exhibition in Paris, where no
doubt it will be considered " quite the cheese."
The well-known General Bixio, died at Turin on
the 27th of September, after a very short illness.
He had only just returned from the Tyrol, and was
engaged in the recent campaign against the Aus-
trians. His regiment was the Ist Battalion of the
Bersaglier Volunteers.

Without Sugar." A certain Monsieur Niemard
on Sunday evening ,
who went into a cafe
a very precise order for a cup of coffee without
sugar, has had to answer rather severely to the Cor-
rectional Tribunal of Police for the consequences
arising out of his visit. The complainants were M.
Bales and his wife, who were, as they said,
grievously treated by their customer. He struck
the husband, he beat the wife, he beat the servant
boy, and if he did not injure the dog it was only
because there did not happen to be a dog on the
premises. The complainant, with much interrup-
tion from the defendant, said he and his wife were
sitting at the door of their cafe talking about the
bad weather, when the defendant went in, and
seating himself at a table near them, called for a
cup of coffee, saying very energetically, " Without
sugar." The complainant.—l did not hear that.
Defendant.—l said it. Complainant.--I told my
servant boy to get the cup and the glass for brandy.
Defendant.—And the sugar. Complainant-1 he
sugar, of course. Defendant.
—You see he admits
that he brought the sugar, although I told him not
to do so. Complainant. —What does that matter ?
You would have to pay all the same, whether you
took sugar or not. Defendant. —Very well. lam
glad you let people see how you conduct your busi-
ness. (The magistrate laughed.) The complainant
explained that when he told the defendant the price
was the same whether he took sugar or not, he
threw the cup into the air, and gave him such a
kick in the stomach that he had the cholic for a
fortnight. When his (the complainant's) wife told
the servant boy to go for the
guard, he threw the
boy down on the floor, and made his nose bleed from
fright. He then bestowed his attention upon the lady,
applied big words to her, and struck her a terrible
blow upon the face, from which she still suffered.
For nearly three months she had drunk nothing but
tisanne. Defendant—Without sugar? President--
What have you to say in defence ? Defendant—l
told him to bring the coffee without sugar ; why
did he not obey the order ? In answer to other
questions, the complainant said the defendant was
drunk. The defendant, in further explanation, said
he was in a passion because they brought him sugar,
contrary to his positive order. He, however, did
not wish them any harm. Perhaps it was not done
on purpose. "If they had not given me sugar"—
what would then have happened your correspondent
cannot report, for the President cut short the de-
fendant's explanation by informing him that he
should send him to prison for a month, and also
impose a fine of 100 f. for the assaults—all this
" without sugar."
Tile individual pretending to be a Chamberlain
of the King of Prussia, who swindled M. Krammer'
a jeweller of Paris, to a rather serious extent, has
been claimed by the Prussian authorities, and has
been Hut to Berlin for trial.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

ITALY.
FLORENCE, Oct. 5 (Evening).

The Official Gazette of this evening published es-
patches sent by Baron Ricasoli to the municipalities
of Venice, Verona, and Mantua, announcing to
them the conclusion of peace with Austria.
The municipalities, in their reply, state that this
announcement has been received with great exulta-
tion and gratitude, and has been greeted by the
people with cries of " United Italy for ever !" " the
King for ever !" " the King's Government for ever!'
The Gazette also publishes addresses from seve-
ral other towns to the Government expressing their
great satisfaction at the conclusion of peace.

PORTUGAL.
LISBON, Sept. 29.

It is stated that Count Lavradio will return to
London as soon as the health of the Countess is re-
established.

A fresh attempt is made to induce the Portuguese
Government to recognise the debt contracted by
Don Miguel.
Tents are being put up in the experimental camp
of Sancos, and arrangements are being made on a
very complete scale, in order that as soon as the
rains cease the troops may be marched thither. An
universal opinion exists that the British Govern-
ment suggested this plan of treating the army more
efficiently.

The expression of the Emperor Napoleon, in his
recent manifesto, that the existence of small couu-
tries is inconvenient as Europe is at present con-
stituted, has caused much comment among Portu-
guese politicians.

AMERICA.
