Paris for the frontiers were most enthusiastical-

The London Post complains that the policy
of the English Cabinet had forced France into
an alliance with Russia.
A dispatch from Vienna asserts that the
French troops had already violated the neutral
ground. 1t was also announced that the French
troops had arrived at Genoa and entered the
Sadinian Territory.
The Imperial Guard of France had been
placed on war footing.
1t is reported that the French Mi. ster Of
Marine has sent orders To all the Seaports of
France, forbidding the departure of any more
boats for the Deep Sea Fishing, rs measure
preparatory to enlisting their crews in the
French Navy.
The question of the regency of France wns

Russia has modified four corps ofDe Armee,
two of which are to- lie advanced toward Aus
tria, and the other two towards the Prussian

Teh London Times of the 27th, speaking of
tho Russia French alliance, says that this is
most startling, changing, in moment, the
whole aspect of Continental affairs.
ENGLAND.-At Lord Mayors Easter banquet,
Earl Derby said that within twelve hours after
the cabinet knew the course Austria had decid-
ed upon, they instructed their Ambassador to
protest emphatically against a step which he
characterized as Precipitate and criminal; also,
that on that very day EASTER England had
offered to act as mediator. He concluded by
repudiating the idea that he had wished to side
with either of the beliiSerants, and advocated
strict armed neutrality.
Sir John Packinglon said in case Of war
sQuadrons powerful enough TO uphold the digni-
ty Of England, would be found both i'll the

~" No Rain for HOnth.-We have heard
it aSScrted-but upon what authority we know
uot-that no rain has fallen during the month
of May, IN either of the So for i've centuries.-
That is to say that there was perfectly dry
time in May 1859, May 1853, May 1863, May
1859, May 1853 and the presumption is that
there will be an equally rainless spell in 1859
We have examined McAllister's register; butt
does not extend even so far back as 1859, and
We know not where 10 look for a meteorological
record of the middle Ages SO as to test the accu-
racy Of the assertion which is going the rounds.
II is at least certain that i'll the current May 80,
which is-now ten days old, no rain has fallen in
this latitude up to the present writing; but We
will not venture to predict what the remaining
twenty-five days of the month will bring forth.
There was rain enough for two months, fell in
April, had it been distributed through double
that period, but there would be sore complaints
from both farmers and citizens, were more
lain TO fall before June.
After the above was put in type it was ex-
pIoded by as refreshing little shower as ever
descended upon parched earth or dirt-cover-
ed, sun-scorched, wicked people. At the close
Of the day. steady, cooling breeze blew out,
and the atmosphere smelt fresh and invigorating.
Widow Bedott was right:
Cant calculate upon the weather,
1t always changes so,
Han't got o means OF tellin' whether
