The French Univers, the organ of the Jesuits,
states that it has been officially announced to the King
of NAPLES, that the Pore is about to return to Rome.
The Univers says :
" The day fixed is the sth of April. He will go by
land. Still it is possible that the Vauban may transport
his Holiness to Terracing. At all events, that ship will
carry to Civita Vecchia some of the Cardinals, the
employes of the Secretary of State, the archives,
&c. Portici is in movement with preparations for
the journey. The Pope and the King are exchang-
ing compliments. Pius IX. has distributed decora-
tions to the most distinguished personages of the
Neapolitan Court, and the King has done the same to the
principal attaches of the Pontifical Court. The Nuncio
of the Holy See at Naples, M. Garibaldi, whom you
knew formerly when be was Nuncio at Paris. has re—
ceived the Grand Cordon of St. Janvier. The Hol►'
Father is to go to Cassuta to perform the ceremonies of
Holy Thursday. The King and Royal Family will be
there. The religious affairs of Piedmont, and especially
the Bills lately presented, are a source of serious pre-
occupation to every one at Portici. The Pope, it is
said, is greatly affected by that attack on the Church,
and fir all that is to be feared for the future."
A letter from Florence, of the 15th March, says :
" A report is current here of a grave dispute which
has arisen between the English Government and the
Tuscan Cabinet, relative to the indemnities claimed by
the English subjects at Leghorn, for tae damages which
they, as well as other foreigners, suffered, at the period
of the seizure of the town by the Austrians, and in May
last. People went so far as to announce the speedy ar-
rival
of Admiral Parker before Leghorn. Nothing
hitherto confirms this rumour."

On the 19th Count SEYSSEL left Turin for Milan
with a protest, signed by the ICING and the Ministry,
as also by the Ambassadors of France and England,
against the law of Marshal RADETZKY on emigration,
which is considered a violation of the armistice and
conventions of the plenipotentiaries with M. BRUCK
and the Marshal.

THE WEATHER AND THE PARKS.

The thermometer at the Royal Humane Society's
receiving-house, Hyde-park, stood at 26 deg. at 12
o'clock on Tuesday night, with the wind N.N.E.
During the night the mercury ascended to 31 deg.,
and at noon to 34 deg., declining again in the evening
to 33 deg. Early yesterday morning a considerable
fall of snow occurred, and about 12 o'clock, the wind
having changed to westward, a slight relaxation of
frost took place with a foggy atmosphere, rendering
the streets of the metropolis samewhat muddy, and
producing some unsoundness of the ice on the orna-
mental waters of the royal parks, which was more
particularly apparent in St. James's, where several
serious accidents occurred, but none of a fatal charac-'
ter. The barometer indicated 29.32, and was evi-
dently rising, denoting a continuance of frost. From
the official reports of the Royal Humane Society, it
appeared that notwithstanding the snow and partial
thaw had impaired the ice for skating, there were no
less than 45,000 skaters and sliders on the ice in
Kensington gardens, Hyde-park, St. James's and
Regent's pal k-.

bTATE or THE RIVEL—The quantity of floating
ice in the Thames was yesterday so great that the
navigation of the river was almost entirely stopped.

GERMAN Y.

Letters from Stuttgart state that a change in public
opinion with respect to the adhesion of the Govern-
ment to the treaty of the three Kings has just taken
place in Wurtemberg; numerous petitions having
been sent to the King praying him to join the re-
stricted federal state as the only means of saving the
country from a revolution. The King and Ministers,
however, continued as hostile as ever to Prussia and
its federal state.

The Second _Chamber of the Grand Duchy of Hesse
resolved in a recent sitting, by 21 votes to 14, to
nominate a committee to examine the propositions of
the Government relative to the adhesion to the re-
stricted federal state. This vote being in favour of
the Government occasioned great surprise, as the
majority of the Chamber consists of Radicals of ex-
treme opinions.
The Arbitral Federal Tribunal of Erfurt has sent
to the Cabinet of Berlin a plan for the organization of
the Tribunal of the Empire. It is proposed that the
tribunal shall consist 'of twelve judges and a presi-
dent ; six of the judges to be named by the Princes,
six others by the two Chambers. A special Curt,
consisting of a part of the members of the tribunal, is
to try crimes of high treason, &c., assisted by a jury.

GERMANY.

The Cologne Gazette of; the 14th states that an-
other 111inisterial,crisis had arisen at Berlin, owing to
the failure of the Ministers to obtain from
the Deputies whom they had consulted se-
parately their consent to the modifications in
the Constitution demanded by the King. At
a Cabinet Council, held under the presidency of the
King, the Ministers bad attempted to persuade his
Majesty to make concessions to the Second Chamber,
with respect to financial matters, as an inducement to
it to consent to the proposed organisation of the First
Chamber ; but the King had declined. It was con-
sequently believed that the Second Chamber would
reject all the modifications, and that the Ministry
would resign.
The Committee of the Second Chamber of Prussia
continued on the 13th the examination of the moth
fications in the Constitution proposed in the royal
message. It rejected those relative to a State
CJurt and the legality of ordnances, and adopted
that f authorising the judicial prosecution of
functionaries.
The Cologne Gazette, of the 16th, has the follow-
ing telegraphic dispatch :
" BERLIN, JANUARY 15:

" The Committee of the Lower House has proceeded
with its resolutions on the various paragraphs of the

House the first vote in the ways, means, and supplies,

The following letter has been published, addressed
by the King of PRUSSIA to the inhabitants of Neuf-
chatel :

" I have received the numerous addresses, in which
my faithful people in Neufchatel have chosen, in spite
of all the difficulties of their present position, to express
the grief they feel in contemplating the attempt of
May 21. In thanking them fur this manifestation, I
take occasion to reiterate my firm resolution not to
abandon, but to re-establish, as soon as circumstances
shall permit, an authority which I have never exercised
but for the good of my principality. lam convinced
that He who has protected me and lengthened my days
will also help me to improve them by terminating the
revolution which now oppresses you. Rtmaiu, then,
faithful and patient, and expect deliverance.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

STRANGE DOINGS AT MIDDLEIIA2I.—A Middleham
correspondent informs us that the moor has been infested
by a legion of touts, and that a diabolical attempt to
" nobble" The Flying Dutchman failed only through an
accid, nt. It appears that the training ground is rented
by Mr. Fobert, by whom it is stocked with
sheep, and that the shepherd, in looking over his
flock on Monday last, bad occasion to cross that part
f the ground on which The Flying Dutchman takes his
long gallops, the other horses seldom going on it except
for the purpose of sweating; in ono particular spot
whero the grass was much higher than in any ether
part of the gallop, he found eight wooden " stobs," a
root in length, placed about two feet apart, driven firmly
into the ground, and sharpened at the pint. It was
plain that some horse had placed his foot between them,
but this particular spot had been altogether missed by
The Dutchman, and thus, by the shepherd's timely dis-
covery, this must atrocious scheme failed. Mr. Fobert,
we have no doubt, will endeavour to trace the matter to
the fountain head, and should he succeed, will give us an
opportunity of holding the authors up to public exe-
cration.

The Mayor of Southampton having sent to the
Lord Mayor of London the beautiful silk banner which was
carried before his Lordship in the procession through South-
ampton, when he visited that town in state a fortnight since,
has received the following communication from the private
secretary of the Lord Mayor, dated Mansion House, Sep.
tember the 9th." After thanking his Worship for the ban-
ner, he says," I am desired by the Lord Mayor to say how
much he enjoyed himself; and how gratified be feels for the
very warm and cordial reception he experienced at the hands
of yourself and your fellow-townsmen. I need not say that
we were all much delighted, and spent a happy day and
evening. lam pleased to hear that everything went off to
your wish, and 1 am sure you could not but feel sensible of
the kindly and unanimous feeling of respect and attention
shown you on that occasion, which every individual there
felt you so justly deserved. It was certainly one of the most
lively and interesting scenes I ever witnessed."
London, England, 1850-09-14

FRANCE.

We find the following in the Consfitutionnel:—" In
the absence of political events, attempts are made to
circulate among the public, and more particularly at
the Bourse, fake ❑ews, which are afterwards turned
to account with more or less skill. At one time it is
tha illness of the President of the Republic, at an-
other it is the sale of the Rentes arising from the
savings banks. For the last few days the talk bas
princically been of the issue of Rentes of the Colonial
Indemnity, which were brought in abundance on the
market, and forced down the prices of the public
finds. The true state of the case is this :—There has
not been yet a single title of rente delivered for the
Colonial Indemnity, and consequently none could
have been brought on the mlrket ; and, we may add,
that in consequence of the preliminary and necessary
f irtnalities, some time will yet elapse before the rentes
awarded to the colonists can be delivered."

We read in the Republique :—" The 2d company
of the 2d battalion of the 21 legion of the National
Guard had yesterday to elect several officer;. The
reactionists, faithful to their tactics, were intriguing
for several days to defeat the democratical candidates.
They did everything to prevent the workmen from
voting, but they failed completely. The democratical
Republicans obtained a great majority. Citizen
Binet was elected first captain; Citizen Husson
lieutenant ; Gosselin sub-lieutenant; Dechavannes
sub-lieutenant ; Chopin fourrier, &e. The royalists
of the second arrondissement are, it is said, in con-
sternation at thi, triumph."
The Journal de Toulouse says that the President of
the Republic is about to visit that city.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the B'h have arrived.

The liaraid° gives the following as the complete
result of the elections :—Conservatives re-:elected 160,
Cooserva'ives newly elected 130, Progressists re-
elected 10, ditto newly elected 4, double elections of
moderates 19, ditto of Progres:,:sts 1, elections of the
B derean and Canary Islands not yet known, 13,
elections null, on account of no candidate having ob-
tained the necessary majority, 12; total, 349. The '
moderate opposition, 41 in number, consisting of the
dissident moderates and (,f what are called the Puri-
tans, have not obtained a single re-election. The ge-
neral result is an un-xsmpled success for the M nis
tees A party. Count de Pursonrostro, Grandee of Spain
and Senator of the kingdom, died on the 7th. Tnere
were new rumours of modifications in the Ministry
being intended on the return of General Narvaez.
The Bth being Sunday, the Stock Exchange was not
open.
