Affaire in Continental Europe—The Progress of the Revolution—Another Joan of Are. A revolution, complete but bloodless, has taken place in Naples; thirty thousand people collected, to demand a change in the govern- ment, and the dismiesion of the king’s minis- ters. They eried, among other things, “long live the king and the constitution ;” and the | king becoming alarmed, and acting under the advice of those in whom he confided, dismissed | his ministers, and gave notice that in ten days | would be prepared a constitution, under the ad- vioe of his new ministers, which should provide fora Chamber of Peers, to be appointed by the king; a House of Representatives, to be chosen by the people ; forthe independence of the prees, and the establishinent of the Catholic religion. Orders said to have been restored in Naples for the present; and the people are waiting for the fulfilment of their sovereign’s promises. In Sicily, the king’s troops have been beaten, avd have retired to a distance, and signed an armistice for the present—those sent from Naples are expected to be recalled immediately ; and the king seems to have surrendered all hope of controlling the people. except by submitting to theirdemands. Pius 1X. has refused a passage tothe Austrian troups across his territory ; and the holy alliance, as itis called, fetters Austrian power in this respect, as she dares not disturb Daron fo much at this time, as she would do, by forcing a passage through the States of the Chureb, without consent. By sea, Austria isnot ia condition to suecor her kinsmen, and she dare not hazrd such a movement in the present condition of France and Eqgiand. In Florence, Genoa, Turin, Rome, Bologna, &c., the people have assembled in thousands, to manifest their, joy at the progress of events in Naples and Sicily; and at Geuoa,a Te Deum | Was to be performed at the church of the Meu- zinta, in honor of the success of the revolution in Sicily. The Sicilians do not seem to demand a republican form of government, but demand that the king shall reside a part of his time in Paler- nio,’a representative government, end other wuarantees against future aberee ant, and to fiold in possession the forts, tll the pertormance of the king’s promises shall be guaranteed by some foreign power. Neither they nor the Neupolitans demand any concession or form of government inconsistent with the acts and guar- ancees of the Congress of Vienna. They th avoid bringing themselves in collision, neces- sarily with any foreign government, or neces- garily disturbing the peace of Europe—and their acts, hitherto, have been characterised by great moderation aud firmness, and less that is afflict- ing, than is usual.in such thorough and geueral insurrections. But t id is not yet; the in- aurrections are progre: ing in the interior of Sicily, amidst a good deal of confusion, and some bloodshed ; and the recent movement and triumph of the people in Naplee, have rendered the atapility er other governments ia Italy more than doubtful. The sovereigns of Modena and Tuscany have already made lurge concessions to the people of their dominions; and have refused some that were prayed for vy the people. The movement of the Pope of Rome, in conceding power to the people, and calling round himeselt a ceuncil of conterence of his most worthy subjects, is no Jess novel than praiseworthy ; and the king of Naples would have acted wisely at an earlier | dey, had he followed the example of the Pope, | and’the two sovereigns before referred to. This European movement is revolutionizing govern- ment efter government, and still stopping short of a republic—in the case of Switzerland ex- cepted ; and the concessions of the sovereigns of several of the minor States to their subjects, | granting general amnesties, seems to be auspici- ous for the increasing improvement in the con- dition of the people of Continental Europe, and to indicate that Eogland, as she 1s charged with doing, is giving countenance, and promises support to these movements. : The king of Denmark has lately granted to his subjects a constitution ; and thus, within a few months, no less than five constitutions have been conceded to nations betore subject to the abso- lute will of their sovereigns. Russia, Austria, Prussia, and the ministry of France stand back, under these circumstances, and content them- selves, at present, with solemn warnings and angry words; save the movement which Austria is making in Italy. Both parties in the French Chamber agree that England is encouraging all these movements; and while M. Guizot de- nouaces her, the opposition applaud, and taunt- ingly reproach him with his subserviency to Austrian despotism; the perversion ot the teel- ings of the people of France, rnd the loes of favor, and the friendship of Portugal, Italy, Switzerland, Greeee, and some of the other minor States of Europe. west Tne bombardment of Palermo by the King’s troops, called forth a spirited and energetic pro- \ test trom the consuls resident at Palermo; among whom were those of the United States, England end France. While the struggle was going on in Sicily, the most influential ladies in Palermo volunteered to protect and nuree the wounded, and exposed themselves without reserve to the fire of the King’s troops -One lady of great family eminence, dressed herself in men’s ap- parel, took the command of a large body of in- surgents, und led them to battle and to victory Since the days of Joan of Are there have been few sim’ examples of female heroism. tain 2 rig it 19 not yet <aown how the Sicilians have received the announcement of the King, that euch a constitution should be granted to the people of the two Sicilie ere have been ttrong manifestations of the King and his government altogether, and to choose Count d’Aquila, the brother of the King, for tneir sovereign, aud to make Sicily alto- gether independent of Naples. Indeed, nothin, is yet certainus tothe details of any torm ol government, or whether the King of Naples will or will not, be finally rejected by the Sicilians. These stirring events in Italy add to the excite- ment in France, and tend to increase the dissatis- faction ot the people with M. Guizot and his go- vernment. They icerease the animosity of the English and French cebinets, and tend more and more strongly to throw the Freneh minisiry en- tirely into the arms of Austria, Russia, and Prussia, and force a reunion between England and the smaller powers, Whose interests she ap- pears to be favoring. Lord Palmerston’s de- spatches are remarkable for their directness; and wo one can fail ay pape: fully his meaning. The Spanish alliance has evidently crippled the power of the French ministry, and deprived them of that independent position which at is for the interest of France to eccupy. By this alliance, Louis Philippe has offended Englana and the Queen personally; and he dares not of- fend the three other great powers of Europe. Hence, when Russia desires to occupy Cracow, aud to Violate her territory; or Prussia desires to take one or more, of the cantons of Switzerland under protection, and to make war upon Switzerland for disputing her right so to do; or Austria desires to occupy Ferrara, to send her troops into Modena and Pannee, and to seize upon the strongholds in the independent States in Jtaly—M. Guizot thinks of the danger to his Spanish alliance, and acquiesces in those violent measures. , What acomplicated cobweb 1s the diplomacy of Europe ! Onsenver.

Rergat or tHe Navigation La dence has taken place between the British Secretery for Foreign Affairs. and our minister a court, relative to the repeal of the navization laws of Great Britain. Mr. Bancroft applied to Viscount Palmerston, early in November, to learn whether ministers wou'd consent to -stablish with the United States a perfect aystom of re olprocity, ia making all veesels of either country fitting out from any port in the world, free te trade to any port of the other nation, whether home or colonial. Viecouai Palmerston. after the lapse of some weeks, replied that. although Her Majesty's ministers did not feel at liberty to advise her Mejesty at ouce to make such a change in the commeroial eystem as was asked by Mr. Bancroft, without the seuciion of Parliament, yet as soon as that body would meet, o measure would be introduced whiob would embrace all the views put forth by Mr. Bancroft in bie note. [tis not doubted that Parliament will at once act favorably on the bill. The importance to the United Statesof such @ measure cannot be exaggerated ‘The British colonialaystem has been a most grievous re- striction upon our commerce, and its annihilation, as promised by Vieoount Palmerston,will open to our enter- prising merchants the lucrative trade of the Exst and Wort ladies, and the other British settlements, from whieh they have been hitherto debarred. This will be the greatest stride yet taken by free trade, and it is not to be doubted that all Europe will follow the example of Great Britain. The liberal commercial treaty made by Hanover with the United States hes been, in nosmali measure, instrumental in disposing the British govern- ment to this wise measure. ‘The Rhine provinces have recently imitated the example of Hanover towards the United States; and everywhere, silently, but steadily our commercial relations are being put upon the most, advantageous footing. Ths repeal by Great Britain of the laws restricting the trade of the United States witb her colonies, will ba far more beneficial to this country than any commercial treaty ever made by our govern ment. What will first occur to our readers upon perusal of the correspondence, and the paragraph annexed to it, is the evasive and insulting cha- racter of Lord Palmers'on’s reply. " His lordship does not answer the question put to hin, by telling whether the statements of the American journal are all true or all false, or part true and part false; stiil less does he explain why, if the statements are true—statements of # design so deeply affecting the shipping interest, and all other Britieh interesta—they should first be made known to this country througa a foreign newspaper, printed at a distance of three thou- sand miles trom our shores, His lordship con- tents himself with an allusion to a vague decla- ration in the sessional speech, which may mean anything—may mean a higher protection, ag@well as the taking away of all protection. This, we repeat it, is evasive and insulting, and in every way unworthy of a British minister. * * OORRESPONDENCR WITK THK MINISTER FROM INK UNITED STATES. Mr, Bancroft to Viscount Polm:rson.
