Cancellation between the Western Powers and the
King Of Naples, who hi 8 just now began his new
career Of good-he arted, tender minded and ator-
giving monarch. God bless him! Poor King Bonn
ba, whom the English newspapers have represented
as kind Of Matmoros and weir-wolf. Tbs Pope
has written to his Neapolitan Majesty very pious
theological and Christian epstle concerning Chris
tans duty OF forgiving trespasses; whilst the Aus
TRAN government Geo at least am told) has sent him
letter perhaps less theological but at any rate more
garnshed with political principles and admontions-
Old England, too has given new proof Of good will,
by declaring against al sorts OF revolutionary de-
monstrations in Italy. Thus peace viii soon flourish
again, provided that the arch fend does not play
some OF his foul tricks to peace loving humanity.
Concerning the differences between Russia and tho
Western Powers, or rather England and Austria
there il no end of mutual petty snnoyances; the
Russian gunboats capture Turkish oarks laden with
salt the English gunboats enter the Caspian sea near
Russian fortresses the Russians re into them, the
small English cruisers fetch mighty steam frgstes
to support them, &C., but happily this alteration
has been settled by diplomacy Russia still says I'VE
will give up the Isle Of Serpents, bat leave us alone
in BolgIad.' England and Austria reply, mo such
Shipg YOU are very sly indeed: still You must surren
der both the Isle OF Serpents and Bograd to Turkey a.
you promised to do at the Paris Conferences. To this
Russia answers well We will see by and by; but at
al events. the union Of the Danubian Prnclpaties
must be effected, il is the wish OF the Modavian
and w alllachan people," France says: Il have not
the least objection this union unite as much Is you
like; do no. for the Dsnubian Principalties,
but there is general cutlery iiom Austria, England
aud Turkey-what the deuce! have we spent money
and blood TO no purpose p For the union OF those
provinces is nothing better than their entire Russi
ncation and . new danger for ontworn Turkey;
besides it is not the Modavian and Wallachian popu-
lation which longs union, out only the Greek

volved in conflict with the German Confederation,
and especially 80 with Austria and Prussia. The
Danish government, fuctuatiDg and lettering be
tween the systems of the "Gesamntstaat (joint
State) and OF Scandinavian nationality, seems ne
solved TO sell the domains Of the Duchy Of Holstein,
and thus 10 violate the rights of that country just
A. if Holstein did not form part OF he Germsn
confederation to which it belongs, aud A. IL there
existed no Berlin treaty concluded between Den
mark and the German Powers, and in which the
rights and the privileges of the country and those
OF the King OF Denmark, in bis quality OF German
prince ana member Of the confederation, were hxed
by mutual convention. Till now the remsastrances
OF the Vienna and Berlin cabinets have proved inef
fectual, and have been answered in IN eyasive and
sophistical way. The Inhabitants are very much
excited, and more prsdent, circamspect and jast
Danish diplomacy. The Diet 1T Frankfort will de-
iibefate on this affair and more energetic measures
will probably be taken.
In France, great discomfort prevails, and CONNER
cial and industrial life il fast sinking. England
seems 10 be on the eve Of q war against Persia,
which, in spite of former treaty with England 10
laying siege TO Herat. Russian and French officers
command the Persian troops, fact which dses net
seem likely to bring about the most friendly feelings
on the part OF France or Russia towards England.
In Malaga (Spain), a new essay on an old theae-1
mean q revoluten-has taken place, but was
soon suppressed. The increase OF severe mea,
sui es il the consequence OF the sed plot and
some dozens Of the inhabitants have already been
tried by 9 couitmartial and shot. In Sweden there
is plan Of fortifyiDg Stockholm against some fu
ture Russian coup ds nam, which the Swedish go
vernment seemssto be afraid Of. Russia, in the
meanwhile, is preparing the constructions OF railroads.
and OF considerable feet OF merchant vessels, (a
of them steamers1 which, according to the opinion
OF English newspapers, easily might be converted
into war steamers The aforesaid railroads are 10
be completed in the space Of ten years, and then We
will see to what purpose those railroads have been
constructed. At all events they give much trouble
TO European diplomacy, and everybody will he on
the gufi ere.
There, YOU have .ket n Of the state Of European
affairs in general by which You win see that, though
there might be nothing 70 make the friends Of peace
uneasy for the monent still the aspects for the f
iure sre rot exceedingly satisfactory.
