The arrival of the Europa at New

English papers to the 9Th inst, from
which we extract the following:

GREATBRITAIN.
The Morning A8rertiser gives curren-
cy to a rumor thar there are dissensions,
or rather differences of opinion, in the
Cabinet as TO the policy to be pursued on
the Italian question that Lord Stanley
and the Liberal members of the Ministry
are favorable to policy not unfriendly
tothe Italians but that the Influence be-
hind the throne, which has so often been
exercised in favor of German objects,
has been brought to bear on the other
section of the Cabinet.
The following was telegraphed from
London on the Sth:
The Times intimates that the Emper-
or's speech to the Austrian Minister was
made with the view of learning how the
great powers will receive the project of
French interference in Italy, and says
the result has happily been a decisive
and great failure, owing to the increasing
suspicion with which his policy is regard
ed. The attempt Of the IHoniteur to
soothe the excitement has but partially
succeeded.
English funds opened yesterday at a re-
covery of - per cent, but closed with a

FRANCE AND AUSTRIA.
The Emperor Napoleon's observations
to the Austrian Ambassador were known
at Vienna on the Sd, and created a sensa-
ton on the Bourse, but the details are
scanty. The intelligence reached Turin,
and was regarded there as the prelude to
spring campaign.
The Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Times says:
IF the M0niteur answers, as it ought,
to public expectation, it may as well be
as frank as possible. Let it declare, for
instance, if it be true or not that a note
was dispatched one day last week to vi
emma, on the subject of Servia, couched
in rather significant terms, viz: that the
passage Of the Pruth by Russia had been
considered by the Allied Powers as a
caSuS belE; that there was, in point of
fact, no difference between it and the
crossing the Servian frontier by an Aus
trian army, for, in the one case as in the
other, the integrity and independence of
the Ottoman Empire would be menaced
1t is actually affirmed that a note of the
kind has been seEt to Vienna if the
statement is unfounded the Moniteasr will
Of course, contradict it,
The Paris correspondent Of the Morn
ing Herald says that, unpopular as a
war with Austria would be at the Bourse
and among the moneyed classes, it would
be received with exultation by the army,
and would, among the great majority of
the French population, be almost as pop
ular as a war with England
The Paris correspondent Of the Lon
don Express says:
i can now assure you beyond doubt
that, whatever turn events may suisse
quently take the French army of Italy
is at this moment ready to march, on
paper The commander-in-chief the
generals, the aids-de-camp, the staff, the
regiments, the artillery, the engineering
corps, are all fixed upon, and the tele-
graph might in half an hour send them
on their way across the Alps tomorrow.
l am not habitually emphatic, but be
well assured that l do not say this light
". Now, Notwithstanding all those
symptoms, my own personal opinion is
that great war is scarcely upon the
cards. The Emperor is net strong
enough internally to risk the tremendous
discomfort which would be engendered in
France by the catastrophes, the desola-
ton, which would be produced by a war
of any long duration. The national va
nifty is great, and doubtless the news that
the tri-coIored flag was waving in LON
hardy would for time silence many
hostile parties. If Napoleon III, could
see his way to a grand military demon
stration, ending in a triumph, without
any serious opposition, there is no doubt
that the movement would be popular
But the tug Of real war | am sure the
nation would have no stomach to stand
There n 0 doubt, however. that a
French army might sweep the Austrians
from Italy like chaf before the wind
if no opposing elements came into oper-
alton to check their onward COURSE
There Is no knowing how far France
might be committed by a first and posi-
sibly too sanguine step"
