ZIR COLIN CAMPBELL.

BERLIN, OCT. 15.
The health of his Majesty goes on improving,
and only one bulletin a day will now bo pub-
lished.

It is reported in Paris, but needs confirmation,
that, in consequence of recent convention, the
Russian naval force in the Chinese waters, which
has been lately increased, will, in future, combine
its operations with those of the English and French
squadrons.

Letters from the frontiers of Asia announce
that General Jacob, who commands the English
troops which wens charged with watching Herat,
had evacaated AtTghanistan, and had arrived at
Moultan,.in the Punjab, on the 17th August.

FRANCE.
PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.
The following observations in the Constitutionnel
interpret the sentiments with which the government
and people of England regard the possession of
India. Our contemporary has perhaps exagge-
rated the influence exercised by the fraction of the
Paris press hostile to England on public opinion in
Groat Britain, and it would be wrong to infer that
the alliance has suffered in the least from the igno-
rant ravings of those journals :
"Every day passed without some success on the part
of the insurgents is of inestimable value to England, and
it is very natural that the last mail from India, precisely
beeauSe the news has been comparatively insignificant,
has caused some degree of satisfaction. Every one,
however, is prepared for the worst, and courage
increases with the danger. The French journals which
speculate on the loss of India for Great Britain are
certainly at liberty to enlarge on that hypothesis,
which, however, has no good foundation. But one
thing alone can remelt from such a line of conduct : that
is, the revelation of a bad feeling, which is at least
impolitic and unworthy of us, for what in fact is
hostility vented in words ? The well-informed
journals in England, as in France, are few in num-
ber ; the cheap papers badly edited are innumer-
able. The inopportune attacks directed against
our neighbours on the subject of events iu India by two
or three journals in Paris have been taken for the ex-
pression of the sentiments of the great majority of the
French press, by those badly informed English journals,
which are lay far the most numerous, and which exer-
cise a considerable influence on the masses. The few
French joarnals to which we allude have therefore given
a wrong opinion an to the feelings of our country ; they
have lessened very gratuitously, and without any kind
of compensation, the sympathies which we possess in
England. Perhaps, after all, they bad no other
object and no other hopes. But if they have really
flfctured to themselves that England was about to be
definitively driven out of India, it was impossible not
to feel astonishment at such a great mistake. All the
present garrison of India, all the functionaries, the
residents, all the army of reinforcement, might be mas-
sacred and annihilated, but Great Britain would not for
that abandon India. Even a European war would not
make her renounce it, and in 20 years, as at the present
moment, she would be rea iy to sacrifice ships, treaeuree,
and soldiers to re-establish hsr sovereignty there. One
of the qualities of that race, which has many others to
compensate Wide and its egotism, is the inflexible
firmness which its

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, OCT. 14.
The critical state of the Austrian money-market,
and the urgent necessity for immediate measures
for its relief, will probably induce the Emperor to
return from Ischl to Vienna sooner than was ori-
ginally proposed.
Last night M. Loucoup, the proprietor of a very
large establishment in this city, attempted to blow

himself on the spot, but he is not likely to recover.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.
The Frankfort Journal, in spite of repeated col-
tradictions, maintains that a protest has been ad-
dre!sed to the Porte on the subject of the late elec-
tions in the Principalities by the ambassadors of
England and Austria, It says :

"The document in question is composed of two parts.
The one, which is official, demands in a diplomatic form
the annulment of the elections ; the other, which is non-
official, points out the reasong which should induce the
Ottoman Governmeut to adopt that measure. In this
litter part the eirgagetuent at Osborne is brought fur-
ward as a principal argument. M. Thouvenel on being
informed of the existence of this note was very desirous
of knowing its contents. Ile applie I both verbally and
in writing to the Ottoman Minister of Foreign Affairs,
but Aali Pacha declared that he was not authorised to
make the note known."
Our Frankfort contemporary adds to the above
" It appears, however, that this document is not in
tended to impede the march of affairs in the Danubian
provinces, but that M. do Prokesch and Lord Stratford
do Reddife merely wished to declare that they al,o had
the right of protest, because the same faults which the
representatives of the four other powers found :n the an-
nulled elections also characterise the new ones. The
inf rsation which we have received from our correspon-
dent does not allow us to doubt but that the Austrian
and British representatives are well justified in the step
they have taken." •
