TURKEY.

We have received, via Trieste, Constantinople
journals and letters to the 20th. The investi-
gation which had been ordered by the Govern-
ment into the affair of the Kangaroo is over,
and the commission has delivered its report to
Ow Grand Vizier. It appears from that docu-
ment that Ferhad Pacha and Ismail Bey were the
principal authors, not only of the expedition of that
vessel, but of all the others organised for the same
purpose—that of supplying the Circassians with
arms and ammunition. They are to be brought to
trial for the offence. Some other persons are men-
tioned in the report as being mixed up in the af-
fair, but they are only subordinate agents, and
acted under the ordera of the above-mentioned per-
sons. These journals state that the nomination of
M 1 Nicolaki Vogorides as Caimacan of Moldavia had
exited great discontent in that principality, and
that it required all the tact and energy of Cabouli
Effendi, the Turkish commissioner, to allay the
popular excitement. Nothing is mentioned rela-
tive to the new bank, nor is anything expected,
until the account reaches Constantinople of the
deposit by the company of the 200,0001. agreed to,
and the issue of the shares. The plan which had
been so long in contemplation of nominating a
minister of public instruction bas been carried into
effect by the appointment of Sarni Pacha to that
post.

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, MARCH 29.
The official part of the IViener Zeitung of this
morning contains the fAlo wing :
_. _

" His Imperial Royal Apostolic Majesty has thought it
(sich bestiment gefunden) to recall his Embassy from the
Court of Sardinia.
" As a consequence of an understanding with the Prus-
sian Court on the subject, the Prussian Embassy at Turin
will, should it be necessary, uphold the interests of the sub-
jects of his Austrian Majesty in the kingdom of Sardinia."
Subjoined is a translation of the despatch which,
on the 16th of March, was forwarded to Count
Paar at Turin :

" Sir,—.Directly after the return of the Emperor to his
capital I took orders of his Majesty on the subject of Count
Cavour's despatch of the 20th of February, which was to
serve as a reply to the reclamations you were charged to
make to that Minister. lam at present able to commu-
nicate to you the impression which that document pro-
duced on the mind of the Emperor, and to give you direc-
tions for the regulation of your conduct.
"The explanations offered by Count Cavour aro far from
having entirely satisfied us. That Minister publicly and
plainly confesses that the Piedmontese press has been guilty
of excesses which are greatly to be regretted. He openly
condemns them, We willingly take note (prcnons aete) of
an avowal so candidly made, and duly appreciate the
feeling Pihich led to the declaration. Although we ac-
knowledge the uniformity of our views on this point, we
arT4 unable to subscribe to the inferences which M. de
Cavour draws from his declaration. In fact, the President
of the Council seems to think he is dispensed from all
effort to repress those abuses of the press, the existence of
which he acknowledges, as soon as he has pointed out to
foreign Governments that judicial measures are a sovereign
remedy against them. He seems to be inclined to release
himself from all responsibility, and to leave it entirely to
the foreign Governments to take the initiative in the re-
pression of those excesses.

"This is not our view of things. The system proposed
might suffice for the ordinary, I may say for the accidental,
abuses from which the most respectable press is never quite
free; but we do not think this passiveness of the local Go-
vernment is justifiable, when the excesses (carts) of the
press assume (as in the present case) the form of a regular
system of calling in quEstion the validity of treaties, and
when the violence and turpitude of this excesses are carried
to such a pitch that revolt in a neighbouring country is
openly preached, and an apology is even made for regicide.
We persist in thinking that in the presence of such enormi-
ties each Government is bound in honour and duty to make
its authority felt, and to prove by its acts that it is not
only inclined to respect treaties itself, but to make them
respected by its subjects►
"If we have properly understood the sense of Count
Cavour's reply, that Minister seems to think we only com-
plained of the polemics of the public papers, but our com-
plaints bore reference also to the encouragement, as well
open as tacit, which the press received from the attitude of
the Government.

" Count Cavour gives us the assurance that he will not
permit anything in the monument which is to be erected at
Turin to the Sardinian army that could give umbrage to our
susceptibility or to that of our army. We regret thatlwe were
obliged to incite him to an assurance which, under all cir-
cumstances, would have been of much greater importance
if it had been given spontaneously. At the same time that
we express cur appreciation of the intention which led to
such a declaration, we take the liberty of.remarkiug, that
M. de Cavour, when speaking of the simple proofs of sym-
pathy which he has received from our Italian provinces
and from other parts of the Peninsula, takes no notice
whatever of the series of pretended deputations (pretenducs
deputations) which he has received in person. This appears
to us to be a most important fact, for if it is not of a
nature to constitute a regular encouragement to revolt, it
at least tends to relax those ties which unite legitimate
Sovereigns and their subjects.
" It is true that M. de Cavour t :firms, in the name of
the Sardinian Government, that iris his firm intention com-
pletely to fulfil Sowards his neighbor us the obligations and
duties which the law of nations and t, reaties impose on him,
but he will permit us to ask if the tc derance which ho die
plays towards a press which incessanta'y attacks those terri-
torial limitations that are consecrated'. y treaty ia in keeping
with his assurances— if the personal reception which he has
given to numerous addresses, all inspired by the hollow vi-
sions of Italian unity, and all tending to detach the subjects
from their duties towards their govei mments—is in accord
with the letter and spirit of the treaty .af posace, in which the
King of Sardinia renounced all claim and pretensions to
the country situate beyond the limits c ,f Sardinia, as those
limits were fixed by the final act of the ( I:ongress of Vienna ?
Does Count Cavouit think that he well interpreted the in-
ternational duties of Piedmont tower, is Austria, and to-
wards his other neighbours, when ho r •eceived deputations
and accepted addresses presented by f. 'reign subjects, per-
sons who are not bound by any particu Jar tie to Sardinia ?
Does not his conscience reproach him w I.th having, by these

acts, encouraged evil passions, and furnished aliment for
the ceaseless attacks of a malevolent press ?
" On this point we have a right to expect explanations
from M. de Cavour, as they alone can give us a just idea
of the value which is to be attached to his protestations of
respect for existing treaties.
" If we were disinclined to indulge in recriminations in
respect to the past, and were willing to oonsider the assur-
ance given by M. de Cavour an indication of a more pro-
pitious future, that Minister has deprived us of the possi-
bility of doing so, for simultaneously with the delivery of
his despatch, the Correspondance Italienne, lithographed
at Turin, on the same day, sated that the President
of the Council bad received a deputation of citizens from
Modena and Reggio, who spoke of the ties which bound
them to Piedmont, ties which wero forcibly severed for
the moment, but which faith kept in full vigour. We
appeal to the good faith of M. de Cavour, and ask him
whether the reception given to this address—and it most
not be forgotten that this is not an isolated fact - is in keep-
ing with the respect which is due to treaties? We ask him
whether his conduct was in keeping with the assurances
which he at the same time gave us? Or does he think
it would be proper (ioiBibk) for us to seek redress for this
attack on treaties, by bringing an action against the editor
of a me; whose offence was that he had made mention of
an action performed by the Minister of the King, or at
least of one which he had never disallowed.
" Count Cavour indulges at length in recriminations re-
lative to wrongs committed by the Austrian press, which,
if they were well founded, would make no change in the
nature of the controversy. But the reclamation which we
have addressed to him furnishes him with no motive for
remedying the evil we have pointed out. He has not uttered
one word which can induce us to hope that such an abnor-
mal state of things will cease. On the contrary, we are
induced to believe he does not think of changing a line of
conduct the results of which appear to him to be so satis-
factory.
" Until this state of things has undergone a change it is
not compatible with the dignity of the Emperor to leave his
diplomatic agent at Turin, whrea he daily exposed to be
an eye-witness of demonstrations which must more or less
directly tend to shake the force of treaties and to lea I to
new complications. It is for this reason, Count, that I in-

vita you to quit Turin, and to come here to communicate to
us orally the final explanations which the President of the
Council may think proper to give. ►'hen announcing your
departure to Count Cavour, you can express our regrets to
see •urselves under a necessity which we must deplore, and
from which we had always hoped to be able to escape. You
will tell him that we heartily wish to see the moment ar-
rive when a more suitable state of things will permit a re-
presentative of Austria to return to Turin. You will also
add that we, on our side, see no obstacle to the Marquis of
Cantono (who will not be exposed to the same inconve-
nience) continuing to reside at Viers). It gives us pleasure
to acknowledge the honourable conduct of M. de Cantono,
and he may be convinced that he will meet with the respect
due to his public character. As it is our desire that this
step should not be in any way prejudicial to the reciprocal,
interests of the two countries, we shall at once take such
measures on the frontier that your absence may not be
detrimental to the peaceable subjects of the two States,
and that private relations may not suffer by the momen-
tary cessation of our diplomatic action at Turin. We are
confident that after your departure the subjects of the
Emperor residing in Piedmont will continue to enjoy the
full protection of the laws of the country. Should, how-
ever, any diplomatic intervention be required between
them and the Royal authorities, the Court of Berlin has,
at our request, authorised its representative at Turin to
take charge.
" I request you, Count, to read this despatch to Count
Cavour. " Accept, die., " BuOL."
