l84S and all constitutions in general, he says that
the reastabhshment of the Neap0litan Constitution
cannot be the view Of the French Cabinet, which,
after having taken such energetic measures at home
to put down revolution, certainly cannot seek to
create it in Italy. France and England should
remember that the in the East was undertaken

the King is firmly resolved to adhere to what he

King Bomba having thus deied both England
and France, the two powers have sent an ultima
tum to Naples requiring reforms and the immediate
liberation of all political prisoners. Should their
representation be again treated with contempt,
then their ambassadors instructed to leave the
country. Austria is very much annoyed both by
the pretensions of the Western Powers and by the
stubborn resistance of the King. Accordingly,
Baron Hubner the Austrian ambassador in France,
has been sent to Naples with instructions to make
any possible arrangement between the cOntending
parties, since Francis Joseph is fully aware that
revolution stirred up by France and England in
Sicily might in trice spread all over the PENN
Sula. I'm order to meet such an untOward contln-
gency the Italian army of Austria has been increased
to the amount of 10000 men, and Radetzky is
still writing for reGnforcements. The English
papers, as if they had presentlment that Austria
may soon become an enemy to the Western Powers,
are now filled with examinations of that power.
Old affairs raked up, for instance, the murder
of CicemacchiO UgO Bassi, and other victims OF
the bsrbarism of the troops occupying the Roman
Legations in 1919; while the treaty of the 18th Of
April seems altogether to be forgotten, since the
Russians have Withdrawn from Kars and from the
Isle Of Serpents.
Among the candidates for the princely throne of
Moldo- Wallachia, we see the name of Pierre Bona
parte mentioned. He is the Emperor's cousin,
luciens youngest son, halfwitted, dangerous
desperate, banshed from Rome for mansaughter,
and notorious for his wild freaks.
O'DOnnells position in Spain remains az awk-
ward as ever. The only party which can have an
interest in not overthrowing him is the party OF the
Progresisfas; and it appears rs If, in spite OF the
blood that is between them, the Dictator and his
late enemies may be cOncated. Narvaez is fu-
riOus at such turn of the game, and Maria Chris
tina lately exulting at the overthrow of Espartero,
has little chance OF soon returning to Spain. Still,
the same ntrigues which destroyed Espartero
now put in play against O'DOnnell, and Ros de
Olano may act in the same way against the
Court of Lucera as the Court of Lucera has acted
against the Duke Of Vittoria.
The American crisis continues to excite the
greatest interest. All the liberals of Europe unite
for Fremont in their wishes. As to Brooks,
