ENGLAND.
POLITICAL REVIEW.
From the European Times, April 90
The triumph achieved by the Ministry on the eve
uing OF yesterday week. in relation OF public saarles
of short DURATION for they rpped by the heels
on Monday, and damaged by the tall Inc Gatas-
trope out of the discussion the Chancellor OF
Exchequer's Stamp Duties bill. The ad uatorem pHn"
cple applied to stamps, however just ITSELF IS 3bnox
ious to the country pary and as the OF land
ed property almost their exclusive affair." they desired
to retain the old theory of taxation, by means ofwhich
the largest engagements yielded to the revenue the
smallest return. On the item charging duty OF rs I'd
on bonds for sums under LEO, Sir Henry Wiloughby
moved an amendment reducing the duty to Is.
The division left Ministers in minority of % in
house of 299 1t must be admitted however, that the
question: appeared before the House, very
pcated, and few appeared to understand it. To be
beaten four times within eight days looks very like
the tide Of Whggery and yet for reasons, arising
out OF the trade principles which might possibly be
eopardised for time, the resignation OF the Ministry
is not under existing circumstances an event to be de-
sired.
FRANCE.
LATEST PARIS
Under this head find in the European Times the
following paragraphs What is said OF the candidates
at Paris is not so ineligible as it might be:
M. Foy having withdrawn the election OF LIE Clerc
for Paris is considered certain The Socialists are SO
alarmed that they have sent deputaton to Eugene Sue
requesting him to decide in favor OF Du Foy. De PUre
is the only person likely to compete successfully with
LIE Clerc. The laters popularity IS quite extraord-
nary
he President OF the RepuD1c, accompanied by the
Minister OF War; left Paris to be present the funeral
of the soldiers who persisted at Anglers by the fall of the
suspension bridge. He will distribute rewards to those
who exerted themselves to save the sufferers
The Times of April 20, has the following by tele-
graph from Paris:
The party OF order in the department of the Sarthe,
have obtained signal triumph IN the election OF amem-
Der OF the Council General to replace Ludru Rolln.
Private letters from Oran state that instruction
has broken out in that portion of the Moorish territory
adjoining the French possessions in Algeria The in
hadO nj
authorities have sent troops to the frontiers.
Letters from Smyrna state that dreadful earthquake
occurred there at hafpast 3 A M on Wednesday, the
Sd inst The grearest alarm prevailed. The noise
which proceeded the shock was terrific.
THE RETURN OF THE POPE TO ROME.
TERRAcINr, April6.
The immediate departufeoEthe courier gives me only
time say that the Pope has just crossed the frontier
and after Offering up prayers IN the cathedral Is now n-
stalled with Cardinals in his SUITE in the Pa
pal Palace Of this city He was escorted by Neapo-
tan dragons from Sessa where he slept last night and
accompanied by the King OF Naples to Epitaio, the
frontier. There he took leave Of the Sovereign from
whom for so long period he has received such magn-
hcent hospitality, and he arrived here exactly at four
o'clock, His reception on the part of the people was
respectful than enthusiastic heard no cries of
Joy prolonged uuaS, but with that exception the
honor paid to him was satisfactory
GREECE.
THE DIFFICULTY SETTLED.
Our sources of information lead us to the conclusion
assumed mild and pacific aspect, that we may ex-
pect daily to hear Of the return OF Sir w Parkers fleet
to Malta.
April 2. The last French steamer which arrived in
that city from Marseies brought letter from M. Tr-
kupis the Hellenic Ambassador at Paris. M. Irkupls
informs his Government OF the arrival OF another kus
sian note addressed to the Cars Ambassadors in Lon
don and Paris, and dated from Teersburgh OF the 23d
February. According to this note, the Cars Govern
ent insists the return OF the captured vessels before
ter into consideration But the vessels are not
returned, adds Count Nesserode the Cars Govern
ment will not consent to recognise any OF the proposals
which Baron eros may have to make.
The differences between England and Greece are con-
sldered as settled An official announcement OF facts
ls daily expected The report states that the Greek
Envoy considers Pacifico entitled about 17O0 The
question of the claims of the British subjects OF lonan
Island is also settled. Mr.. Wise ordered to abide by
the Greek Enjoys abitration and upon the Greek Go
vernnlent execution OF the conditions. Admiral Par
ker Is to give up the captured vessels.
The Wanderer Journal ct great repute in the East
OF Europe, states that the island OF Sapienza, cevery
claimed by Lord lmerson was about to be transfer
red to Russia by the Greek Government possesses
large and well sheltered harbor wherein the Russian
fleet could lay IN waiting to rush upon Constannope.
From the same authority, under which we enabled
10 lay this information to the true of the
tack upon Greece before readers, are enabled
now to state, that, the great object having been
plished, OF preventing the cesson OF the island OF
Sapenza to Russia the other minor details OF demand
will not be insisted upon to the extent originally claimed,
and that Mr. Wyse has already received nstructonst to
that effect from the Foreign Office.
