The London Chronicle repeated the statement of
the Russian and Austrian alliance The London
Herald at first regarded the statement at least
premature, but in a subsequent leader says it is
believed that Russia has decided to renew her ali-
ance with Austria. No treaty has yet been signed,
but there is doubt as to the renewal of friendly
relations.
The Independence Beige utterly disbelieves the
announcement, and the news is also discredited in
the Paris journals.
The remainder of the Indian submarine cable
has been laid, and Alexandria is now in telegraphic
communication with Calcutta and other Indian
cities.
In the British House of Commons the Budget was
progressing favorably.

to Piedmont is to be abandoned.
The Paris Pays also denies the statement in re-
gard to an alliance between Russia and Austria.
According to Berlin despatch of the 9th, the
new proposition for a conference of the five Great
Powers, failed mainly because England declined to

of 1856.
The Constitutional publishes a despatch from
Count ThOuvenal. dated on the 3lst of January,
addressed to the French Ambassador at Vienna, to
be communicated to Rechberg, in regard to Central
Italy, the inhabitants having refused to recognize
their former soveregns. He appeals to the con-
cliatOry spirit of the English proposals as regards
the Remagna, and he expresses regret that the
Pope allowed the state of things there to become
so aggravated. France would still, however, con-
sent to less radical combination than one propos-
ing the dismemberment of the States of the
Church, the condition of the principle of non
intervention being maintained.

From Washington.
WASHINGTON, March ia private letter from
st. Petersburg says that the project for tee-
graph, prepared by the American Consul to the
A ID In Ill,
to San Francisco, has been presented to the
Director-in-C Chief of Ways of Communication, Gen.
Chetfkin, who has laid the whole subject before
the Siberian Committee, because as the project is
to affect Siberia, it must pass through under
their sanction.
Public opinion is represented to be very favora-
BILE to the project, and as the Russian Government
recognize the line to the Amoor, it would really
seem to be the best mode by which to unite Europe
to America. From the mouth of the Amoor to
San Francisco the distance is about five thousand
mies-all, with very small fraction, by land.
If, however, submerged cables shall be used
where practicable, the distance will be verv much
reduced. Persons high in authority think that the
line should be made by submerged cables, but Mr..
Collins adheres to his projected land route, via
behring's Straits, or as near to that point may
be, and to the least possible of submerged
cables, looking to cheapness, readiness of repair
and security against loss of submerged cable, The
surveys are going on in Siberia the part of the
Russian Government Capt. Romanof of the en-
gineers, who despatched last summer to survey
the line east Of Irkoutsk, most probably returned
to st. Petersburg, to make his report, during the
month of February.
The government has been informed that the
steamer Norfolk is ready for sea. Minister
McLane will probably leave here on Thursday to
embark for Vera Cruz. 1t is considered important
he should reach there soon as possible, in view
of the reported intention of the Miramon party to
blockade that port which will certainly be resisted
on the part of the United States.
COL Forney says the rumor that Mr.. Boynton
has abscOnded with portion of the funds of the
House of Representatives is not true. Not dol
lar of the money entrusted to the Clerk has reached
his hands.
