I FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.—AII the troops destined for the Camp of the
North are either already arrived or on their march to their
cantonments. They form three divisions, the head.

quarters of which are to be established at Boulogne, Wim-
ereux, and St. Omer. Every branch of the service is
perfectly organized, and staff officers are now marking out
the most eligible spots between St. Omer and Boulogne
where the army may manoeuvre without causing damage to
the crops. The grand manoeuvres are not to take place
until the last two weeks of September. The Messager
de Bayonne of the 19th gives some details of the Im-
perial movements :—The Empress takes her bath in the
sea every morning, while the Emperor visits the works of
the new imperial residence, which are to be completed in
ten months. The chateau is to be called the Villa
! Eugenie. The effect produced by the baths has been
favourable to the health of Her Majesty, and she will con-
tinue them for about a month longer. The Emperor will
return to Paris at the end of this month. But Her Ma-
jesty will remain until the 20th of September.

SPAlL—Bayonne despatches of the 21st and 22nd give

the following as

the latest movements and rumours :—The

Collantes have lett a foreign country. The present
tranquillity at Madrid is only apparent. Queen Christina
is still kept in the Palace with the Duke de Rianzares.
Her children have quitted Madrid. Three of them have
already passed to Bayonne, and the others are expected.
Queen Isabella left the Palace on the 18th, and drove out
on the Prado with the King and her daughter, the infant
Princess of Asturias. But few acclamations greeted her
on her passage. The cholera has broken out at Seville,
and has caused such terror in the neighbourhood that the

ITALY.—Letters from Naples, in the Monitor Toscano
of the 16th, state that two-thirds of the inhabitants of
Naples have emigrated on account of the cholera. Among
the victims of the epidemic are the Duke of Lieto, General
Nmazianti, and the Prince of Aci. The Piedmontese
Gazette of the 19th announces that a treaty for the reci-

procal freedom of the coasting trade has just been con-
cluded between England and Sardinia; and that a treaty
of commerce has also been concluded between Sardinia and
the Sublime Porte.

—The mortal remains of the late King of
Saxony arrived, by railway, at Dresden on the 15th, and
were conveyed with great pomp through the principal
streets to the palace. Having been placed in the chapel,
the body was left to lie in state. The people were then
admitted to visit the chapel, and during the night the
coffin Was left under the protection of an aide-de-camp,
a chamberlain, a priest, and a military guard.

SAXONY

SWEDEN.—According to letters from Stockholm, the
capture of Bomarsund is likely to remove all further hesi-
tation on the part of the Swedish government, who may
now be expected to join the Western Powers. It is be-
lieved that nothing but the fear of an unsuccessful result
in the present contest has hitherto prevented that cabinet
from uniting with the Allied Powers in resisting the
aggressions of Russia. The government possesses a re-
serve fund of $4,000,000 for extraordinary expenses, which
will prove exceedingly useful in case of war being declared.

Ausrara.—A circular has been forwarded by the Aus-
trian government to its foreign diplomatic agents, of
which the following is the sense :—After alluding to the
propositions made by Russia on the 29th June, and by
France on the 22nd July, the Austrian minister ob-
serves, that although the position of this empire is consi-
derably changed by the evacuation of Moldavia and
Wallachia, two most important facts must not be lost
sight of:-1. Notwithstanding the evacuation of the
Principalities, the war continues between Russia on the
one side, and England, France, and the Porte on the
other. 2. That all treaties between Russia and the Porte
have been abrogated by the present war, and have not
regained validity by the evacuation of the Principalities.
The Austrian government, in principle, approves of the
conditions of peace proposed by the Western Powers, and
conditionally agrees to them. The Austro-Prussian treaty
of April 20, is, in spirit, in accord with the stipulations in
question ; not exactly in word. It is hoped that the Court
of Berlin will not be of another opinion ; but should such,
unfortunately, be the case, it will lead to no change in the
foreign policy of Austria. For the present Austria will
maintain an armed neutrality. If this be correct, and
there is every reason to believe it is so, more straightfor-
ward and manly language cannot be desired.
Puussts..—Considerable sensation has been caused at
Berlin by a very simple fact. The King has ordered that
a marble tablet, with an inscription in letters of gold,
shall be placed at the spot where the first soldier fell in
1848 from the fire of the insurgents. This act of repara-
tory justice has given rise to some protestations, not,
however, of a turbulent character, but leading to several
persons being arrested, or summoned to appear before the
magistrates. The latest accounts speak of active prepara-
tions for defence on the Prussian coast of the Baltic, more
particularly at the mouth of the Vistula.
RUSSlA.—Accounts from St. Petersburg state that the
distress caused throughout Russia by the war is excessive.
The total prostration of business and the high prices of
all necessaries entail hardships far more severely felt than
the momentary privations among classes accustomed to
instability of resource. The maritime towns of course
suffer most, inasmuch as the blockade annihilates a trade
which last year showed a list of seven thousand vessels
entered and cleared. Hence the middle classes, at least in
the west of Russia, would welcome the return of peace
on any conditions; and Nesselrode and the German party
too, are reported-to be strongly inclined for peace. This
may have led to the report that the St. Petersburg Cabi-
net was willing to acquiesce, with slight modification, in
the demand made for guarantees. The old Russian or
Muscovite party, on the other hand, is said to urge the
continuation of war with unabated fanaticism. The
Prene of Vienna has the following from St. Petersburg,
dated the 10th :—" Count Nesselrode continues to mani-
fest a strong desire for peace, and he has frequent confer-
ences with the Emperor, whose illness is almost at an end.
The Emperor goes out frequently, accompanied by Gene-
ral Odlerberg, whose brother had a mission in the Princi-
palities and Bessarabia, to report on the state of the
Russian armies. This report is said to be very unfavoura-
ble. He describes the armies as having neither subor-
dination nor discipline, and as being almost in a state of
dissolution?'

CANADA.—By the Canadian Steam-ship Company's
screw-steamer Cleopatra, Captain Salt, which arrived in
the Mersey on Tuesday morning last, after a run of 121
days from Montreal, we had four days' later news from all
parts of the Canadian provinces, and upwards of 100 pas-
sengers. The screw-steamer Charity, Captain Paton,
which left this port on the 25th ult., arrived at Quebec on
the 7th inst., the passage occupying thirteen days. The
elections had all concluded ; returns had been received
from 123 constituencies, leaving two unrecorded. In a
