sKTTLRMRNT OF THE ITALIAN QuKsrroN.
The London Morning Herald gives promi
nence 70 the following paragraph:
We have reason to believe that deflnitiva
treaty Of peace Will soon be concluded At IN
rich. 1t will, however, bear the signature OF
only two Powers--France and Austria Tha
preliminaries of villafranca will b strictIv
main tained as to the relations OF Austria ana
Sardinia. We learn from Vienna that the pre-
liminaries Of Viliafranca will serve as . guide
for the conduct of AUSTRIA
II was asserted that the result Of the Kinr of
the Belgiap's visit to Biarritz was fully sac
cessful. Various rumors were a1oat The
great report of the day was that the Question
of the Dnchies had been arranged-that Tus
cany is to be reigned over by the King of the
I}elgians' second son, and Parma and Modena
by Macmillan. Another report saws tha
Count de Flanders is to have the three italian
Duchies, and the Archduke Maximilia, Vene
tia, with separate constitutions. These re-
ports must be taken for what they are worth
1t was expected that the King of the Rel.
gians, Prince Richard Metternich and Count
Walewski, would remain at Biarritz till the
departure of the Emperor, at the end Of Sep
tember.
The Paris Patyse has an article which par.
TALLY confirms the above statement
THE SAN JUAN ISLAND AFFAIR.
The American occupation of the Island of
San Juan attracts considerable atten ton in
the journals.
The London Times editorially states the facts
of the case, and says: Fortunately, the affair
Is in good hands, and we trust there can be no
| reason to doubt that the governments of the
two countries will proceed to decision in the
same spirit of moderation and equity by which
their views of the question have hitherto been
characterized. The article concludes as fol-
| lows:
1t is not question of commerce, but OF JUS
lice. The decision should depend upon the
terms of the treaty fairly Interpreted, and it
was evidently not doubted by either govern
| ment, a short time ago, that this Interpretation
could be discovered. II, however, it should
prove that the existing convention cannot be
so applied as to satisfy the contracting par ties
there can surely be no reason why two States
which have now adjusted their respective lim-
| its across an entire continent, from the Allan
| tic to the Pacific, should not complete the
work in the narrow waters of Vancouver
Island The Americans may assure themselves
| that in such negotiations they will meet with
i no feelings out tHOSe OF lalFneSS ana amlLy on
| the part Of this country. It would be hard
| indeed if children of the same stock, who can
| feel the sympathleS of blood and lineage as
they were felt and expressed in the waters of
the Peiho, should find much difficulty in ad-
| justing petty boundary question on the coast
of the Pacific.
| The London Post also again refers to the
| subject, and says:
If the importance of San Juan to the two
countries be considered, there can be no doubt
| that it's possession by England may be said to
be absolutely necessary to the security of
British Columbia. The government of Wash
| ington can have nothing to gain by the adop-
| ton of the violent and unjustitiable proceed
| ings of Harvey.
THE WAR WITH CHINA.
| Upwards of thousand Marines strong de-
| tachments of the rifle brigade, two light in
| fantry regiments, &C., We're to leave England
| for China by the overland route.
The first of the squadron for service against
China had already sailed. The government
| intended dispatching fifty gunboats, besides
frigates and other vessels
An order for two million ball cartridges
packed in 2c0 boxes, had been executed at
Woolwich in three days, including the stow
| lug on shipboard. These go to China over

tent was progressing for the sea voyage.

The ship Josiah Quincy, from Leghorn for
| Boston, was abandoned at on the 4th of
September, leaking badly. The crew had
| reached Liverpool per ship Eddystone, as had
| also small portion Of the cargo.
| Thirty of the crew of the Great Eastern had
been arrested and tried at Weymouth for mu-
tinous conduct, in refusing to wash the decks
| when ordered. The two ringleaders were SEN
| fenced for three weeks and a months impri-
| sonment respectively, at hard labor, and the
remainder for a fortnight each. The evidence
showed thar the ships crew was far from COM
plete.
The English journals strongly denounce the
| incomplete and hurried manner in which the
| ship was sent to sea. vague rumor has been
current that her first voyage would be post
poned until next year, and that in the interim
| she would be exhibited at the principal ports
| in the kingdom. This, however, is authorita-
lively contradicted, and she is still advertised
| to leave Holyhead for Portland on the 10th of
| October.

The London Times Paris correspondent again
draws attention to the great activity in the
French dock-yards, and states that he has been
assured there are now building, or under or
ders to be built, twenty ships-of fthe-line-ten
of the very largest size, and the others of in
