will hardly fail to embroil herin war
with Russia, Austria and perhaps Prussia.
Her Minister of Foreign Affairs has as.
serted that one of her aims will be the
restoration of Poland, another to prevent
Austria again exercising dominion over
her revolled Italian provinces. On the
other hand, il is said that Russia is will
ing to form Poland into Kingdcm, pla-
cling one of the Russian Princes at her
head-aud Austria in all probability will
be unable to cope with the revolted pro-
vinces, so that French interference will
be unnecessary.
FRANcE.--An attempt was made by
some of tho Socialist and Communist
Clubs to produce another Revolution in
France. These Clubs marched in large
numbers to the Hall of the National AS
semhly, declared it dissolved, appointed
another Provisional Government and a
COMMITTEE of Public Safety" But
their success was ofshort duration. The
National Guard and Guards Mobile were
true to the Government, the Clubs were
dispersed, order restored and several of
the ring-leaders arrested, among them
four members of the National Assembly.
Ledru Rollin only escaped through the in
fluence of Lamartine. The latter, whose
popularity for short time appeared wa
ming, has again obtained the confidence
of the people and everything is Tranquil.
The excuse for this insurection was
sympathy for Poland, petition having
been carried to the Assembly in their be,
half and not receiving that action, which
the memoralists thought it deserved.
ITALY,-Next to France, Italy pre-
sents the most interesting spectacle, at
present, to the friends of freedom. The
Pope desires peace. He does not wish
to embroil his country in War with
Austria and by this course of action has
in some measure lost his popularity. The
Ministry did not prove satisfactory to the
people, they were shut up by the Ma
tional Guard, but afterwards released
A new ministry was formed, which prov
ed as little satisfactory. To evade the
scruples of the Pope, the Roman troops
we're recommended to place themselves
as volunteers directly nn1er the com
mand of Charles Albert.
Another battle had taken place be.
tween the Austrians and Piedmontese,
which was holly contested and many
were lost on both sides. Both, it would
seem from the accounts given, claim the
victory. The battle was commenced by
Charles Albert in order to entice the
Austrian army out of Verona. In this
he did not succeed, but showed the supe.
riori,y ofhs forces.
The Austrians lost many Of their bes
troops and some of their best generals
were slain.
PRUSSIA AND DENMARK.-The media
tion of England between these two pow
ers has failed and Prussia is determined
to wage destructive war against Den
mark. Both governments are making
great preparations. In the mean time
the King of Prussia finds trouble at home
He has recalled the Prince who was com
PEELED to leave upon the first outbreal
5 of the people, and this has created grea
dissatisfaction. The people demand tha

ENGLAND "A National Assembly O
the Chartists, which for some time pas
has been sitlingin London, dispersed ant
went to their homes. What their mex
movement will be. it is difficult to tell.
1t is rumored that the Queen intends t,
form new Ministry, placing Lord Joh'
Russell at the head; and that she also in
tends to grant some oft reforms aske,

and Mr.. Meagher have resulted in thei
virtual acquittal, the jury not being abl'
to agree upon verdict.
