FRANCE.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.

Lord Palmerston is said to be among the distin-
guished persons iuvital to Fonbinebleau during
the Queen's visit there.
A private telegraphic despatch from Constanti-
nople, published in the French papers yesterday,
announced that the Persia❑ troops had refused to
evacuate Herat, and were fortifying it. This in-
telligence is completely unfounded.

The Moniteur publishes despatches received by
Marshal Valliant from the Governor-General of
Algeria. The following is an extract in which an
account is given of the proceedings of the division
of General Maissiat from the 27th to the 30th ult. :
—" After having bivouacked on the 26th near the
Bordj-Akban, the division of General Maissait, in
ascending on the 27th to the Col de Chellata, found
the high points of ground which command that
place defended by strong entrenchments occupied
by numerous Kabyle4. The brigade Desmarset
by making a circuitous movement on the left,
soon compelled the Kabyles to abandon their posi-
tions, and retire to the rock of Tizibert, while the
brigade Margadel continued its advance to the
Col. The Tizibert is an enormous rock, with steep
sides, which commands the entrance to the Col. Its
summit is crowned by a natural wall, to which the
Kabyles have added other defences with loop-boles
for musketry, and which they appeared to be re-
solved to defend with obstinacy. After firing a few
rounds of artillery, Colonel Desmarest ordered a
part of his force to scale the rock in front, while
another part were sent to attack it in the rear. The
enemy replied to the attack by a well-directed fire,
and rolled down large stones on the heads of their
aszailants. The French soldiers, however, reached
the summit before it had been evacuated by
its defenders, and several of these latter were
killed on the spot by the Zouaves. The loss of
the Kabyles is estimated at 25 killed and more
than 50 wounded. The French had four killed
and 30 wounded, and among the latter three of
1 cars. On the 27th,,, General Maissiat was esta-
blished on the Plateau of Chellata. On the 28th,
the troops were allowed to rest ; but on the 29th,
they attacked and carried the village of M'Zien, as
well as some other villages near. In these attacks
the French had 17 killed and 97 wounded, and
among the latter was Colonel de Margadel, who
was struck by a ball in the shoulder. The enemy
had 63 killed and 125 wounded. On the 30th,
General Maissiat attacked and gained possession of
the village of Ait-Azis, which was very strongly
entrenched and defended with great obstinacy.
During a part of the time the fighting was coin-
, pletely point blank, the French soldiers advancing
so close to the loop-holes that they caught bold of
the muskets of the Kabyles. The French had 19
killed and 64 wounded, the Arabs 28 and 55, ex-
clusive of those who were removed."
A Berlin letter in the Constitutionnel states

that as it appears certain that the recent events
in Italy were planned in London, the Austrian Go-
vernment has requested the Prussian Cabinet to
address a note to the English Government, praying
it to exercise active surveillance over the foreign
refugees in England, or, in other words,, to modify
the laws relative to them. The reply of Prussia to

the demand is,-says the letter, not yet known.
Letters from Vienna in the Boersenhalle of Ham-
burg and in the Avsburg Gazette affirm that the
Italian power 3, including Austria, intend to address
a joint demand to the English Cabinet not to allow
Mazzini and his fellows to remain in Eogland.

THE EAST.

We have received Constantinople journals and
letters to the 4th, via Trieste. Lord Stratford de
Redcliffe, on the previous day, liad had a long con-
ference with the French Ambassador, after which
ke had an interview with Reschid Pacha. Although
nothing positive was known relative to what tr.ins-
pired at those Conferences, yet it was gen.erally re-
ported that the British AmbassadOr had 'received
instructions from his Government to submit to the
Porte, on the subject of the Principalities, a propo-
sition calculated to satisfy all interests. Every
mail which arrived from the Moldo-Wallachian
provinces was said to bring accounts of fresh arbi-
trary acts committed by the Caimacan of Moldavia,
who in reply to any observations male to him said
that as he was on, the spot he knew much better
how to act than the Ministers at Constantinople.
The Turkish Ministers had not yet replied to the
last note presented by the represent ttives of France,
Russia, Prussia, and Sardinia, and it was not con-
sidered likely that any deliberation on it would
take place until after the fetes. The diplomatic
difference which had arisen with the Court of
Naples has been settled, Prince Callimaki
being accepted as ambassador, and Dr. Spitzer
as charge d'afralres. The latter, on the occa-
.
thesi title o
nof
his appointment, has been promoted to
f functionary of the first rank second

.
of the order of Medjidie. The fetes for the circum-
cision of the young princes still continued. Every
day a number of persons of distinction were in-
vited clinewith the Ministers in their tents.

the fetes will be prolonged to the 10th.
