Foreign Intelligence per Steamship Asia.

LONDON, August 6.-ITALY.-The Sardin- | ian representative to the Peace Conference at
 Zurich, Count Zembrois, of Piedmont. has ar- rived at that city. The Official Gazette of
 Lombardy says that the French diplomatic
 agent has received instructions which are
 construed as being favorable to the wishes of
 the people of Italy.
 The Paris Steele, in recent issue, express es opposition to Pope Plus the Ninth assnm- ing the Honorary Presidency of the Italian Confederation.
 Pope Plus the Ninth, in answering an Am- | bassador from the Emperor Napoleon, said he | would not accept the Honorary Presidency of the Italian Confederation until he could ascer-
 tain whether or not such an acceptance would pacify the people of Italy, as we'll as promote
 the interests of the Catholic Church. Cardinal Antonell has proposed new scheme for an Italian Confederation, the principal object being to control the masses, and crush any revolutionary movements in the country.
 The Pope has condemned to death seven of the citizens of Peruga, for their participation l in the massacre Tn that place. Since the con- demnation of these persons they have escaped. ITALY OCCUPIED BY 50,0o0 FRENCH TRoops It is reported that Italy is to be temporarily occupied by fifty thousand French troops.

 NAVIGATION OF UPPER WHITE RIVER.

MIR. EDIros :--I find there are many per- sons, some of whom are citizens of our State, that do not know that White river is navigable to Buffalo City, even during the winter and spring. For the information of all such per sons, I will give the names of six different steamboats that were at Buffalo City during the past season: City of Knoxville, Mononga- hela Belle, Oakland, Mary Patterson, Nebras- ka, and Interchange. Three of these boats will run to Buffalo City the coming season. one of them from that point to New Orleans and possibly other boats will be in the trade. Batesvile is about to make movement, at last, toward improving the navigation from Jacksonport to that place. When this sis done, there may be said to be good navigation to Buffalo City-at least, during the winter and spring months; the worst part of the river being between Ratesville and Jacksonport.
