She has brought nine hundred tons of cargo and eighty- five thousand france in specie on freight. ‘The news by the Saxonia bas been anticipated by tho Arabia at Halifax, that vessel having left Liverpool on the ‘MKth inet. bd The London Times of the 4th instant has the following in its City Article:-— ‘The English funds remained steady throughout Satur- day until tho afternoon, when there was a reaction of 3. Console lett off at 954, @ 3 for movey, and 953, a % for May 6. The transactions of the dey were unimpor tant, and the dainess at the close was principally attribut- able to the accounts from France of the urgent continuance of offensive preparations. The defeat ot the Derby Cabinet is very briefly com. mented on by several of the Paris journals, The French government had inquired how many men could be transported per day by rail from Paris to Lyons. The answer was, 25,000 The opinion of some of the supe- rior officers ts that war may be considered as certain. Three brigades of tronps aro to be encamped at Belloy, on the Sardinian frontier. It is announced that a fourth regiment of native rifemen is to be raised in Algieria. A despatch from Turin, of the 2d inst., Count Cavoor has arrived here, and, as a testimony of the public confidence, an imposing demonstration was pre- pared for hia reception. Letters trom Rome, Florence, and other towns of Italy, announce that nnmerons eudscriptions have beon opened for the purpose of affording pecuniary assistance to the Sardinian government, and also that volunteers have been despatched to Piedmont. ‘The London News of the 4th instant, spoaking of the Rew diplomatic importance of Russia in the affairs of Ea- Tope, eays:— France, owing tothe unwire policy of ita raler, is not the arbiter of the affairs of Europe. Our alliance brought prettige to the Emperor; our Joint influence was para- mount, and that of France was what it bad not been for well pigh half « century. That paramount position the French Emperor abandoned to ron after crooked and sefl- ieb aliapces, and embark in schemes of personal aggran- dizement. The Court of St. Petersburg is once more the great arbiter of peace and war. It summons Congresses, dictates tneir composition, and virtually presides over them. Who does not discern, through the confased events of tne last two months, that Frapce and Piedmoot have ‘deen both impelied again t Austria, incited to the utmost verge of provocation, and then been either left ansup- ported or strongiy recalled to moderation? France cannot challenge Burope if Russia do not consent to stand a; ingly behind it, France dare not even pass the ape f fo fia Wil not offer security against German aggrension. The object of confirming Russia in her disposition to make and keep peace may, it i# thought in high quarters, be better entrusted to Lord Derby and Lord Malmesbury than to Lord Palmerston and Lord John Russell. News from Hanover states that the French Ambassador ‘was recently obliged to leave the Theatre Royal in conse- quence of an anti-French demonstration of the audience. The royal family were present at the time. ‘The jury in the case of the Phernix conspirators, in Bel fast, Ireland, could not agres, and were discharged. ‘Musard, the founder of concerts, died recently, at An- teuil, aged seventy-seven. . THE ITALIAN QUESTION. ENGLAND'S VIEW OF ITALIAN INDEPENDENCE—THE ITALIANS MUST WORK OUT THEIR FREEDOM, BUT NOT EXCHANGE FRANCE FOR AUSTRIA. {From the London Timor, April 4] It was not without much regret that th» poople of this country found themselves compeiled to agsume an attitude of bostitity even to that vague and undetermined some- thing which is spoken of as “tho Ital'an cause.” The opinions and the feelings of the vast majority of Eaghsh men are with T'aly and the Italians. { wish or word on our part could secure the indepondenos of the Italian po- ningula from Mont Cenis to Reggio, that wish is already formed, that word would instantly be spoken. ‘Italy for the Natiane,” by all means, but we mnet be consider the question from our own point of view. 5 * . . That the Italian cause would be aptly represented by the presence of a conquering French army in ltaly we abso lutely deny. “That fuct would represent the military ag. grandisement of she French empire, and that Italy had become the prize of a French in place of an Austrain task- master—notl more. That the Italtlan cause is repre- sented by the email coteries of reckless and acrid rofu gees of whom M. Mazzini is tbe most lar type, we also deny. If opposition to the viewe—if indignation at the acts of there gentiemen. fo be undoratond as op- porition to the Italian cause, then we must be content to rank ourselves among its opponents. We utterly and em- phatically repadiate atl connection of feeling or opinion with a e party in Italy, and esteem them the worst enemies of Italian indepentence. If then, we rej the aagger-bearers an unfit allies io any Cause, if we distruet that form of freetom which ‘would be prevented to the Itatians at the point of « French Dayonet, where are we to turn for fitting instrumonte? England conld not, it she would, confer fair gift of tree- dom upon Italy; the giver woud be the master, an4 tho receiver of such @ must be content with an exchange of chains, Where, then, are we totarn for suitable allies in the great cause of Italian independence? There is but one quarter to which we can look for support with any mode- rate degree of confidence. There is but one nation which can in the loog er out the desired result, and that 18 Realy herself. Englishmen cam bo of great holp in clearing th , In eecuring opportunity aud breathing time for the Wane—we can do nothing more, If the infinence of England can be brought te boar upon the Congress soon about to open’ the dia cuasion of Italian affairs, so that whole of the Italian peninent with the lo excep von of the Lombardo-Vevetian kingdom, as ro. ognized by the treaty of Vienna, shall be left clear t» the Ttalians themselves, to work oud the fe: ‘m of their inte lence wn ine_done the greatest pend Jialy disruption of the old Roman Empire. We think that in cor jun with the other Great Powers—if thoir inton- tone honcst and straightforward cn tae removal of all foreign garrisons from the Trahan Peninsula, with the exception we have named. bink we can procure tho abrogation of every treaty made between Austrin on the one part and thé various Italian Princes on the otber, since the termination of the great European war, mado with the object of extending tb premacy of Aurtria beyond her own Italian domi nions. The compensation for this Immense boon will un doubdtedly bow roger one ong ry tpmnigen wo it tion given by the Gr rowers ‘ienna more than forty rh ae pracestion by Austria of ae re ory Kore than this wo cannot do—further wo cannot go Are the Italiane—we mean the [talian nation, not Couat Cav oar and bis cabinet—not King Ferdinand and bis immodiate Partisans of the 16th of May, 1848—not Cardinal Autone'li, not the Archduke Iopold and bis av issra—not the Duke of Modena—not, on the othor hand, M. Mazzini, and his fecret conclave of midnight conspirators—preparet to back us Englishmen in this great endeavor? We believe aro. We believe there aro miilions “of [tallans who will look to this solution of the question as the bust which oan be offered to them, aa it is the only one whi9h can re- commend iteolf to the acceptance of the two chief parties to the dispute,—namely, Austria and France. Either the Aut- trtan or the French diplomatist @ tetilement - who ventured to declins such believe 21, 1859,—TRIPLE SHEET. to treat, or to ow themscives to be trested for, o8 conditions, t.) will completely have turned the upon the Oa 1i:tof Vienna, They will claim their inde- péence in’) pame of public faith, not in violation of 1s iret privelples, They will have ihe diate support of two, possibly of three, ers. Even the Emperors of France and perceive that th-ir true tpterests, ag well ae the care of their dignity and honor, will compel them to accept 80 jurt, 80 mov erate, £0 reasovable a solution. It bas been stated that the Emperor of Austria is pre- Pared to treat on these terms. If so, ove great difficulty is removed. Is is aleo stated upon most trustwortay aa: thority thatthe great masa of the Italien population will thapkfally accept evch a settlement, aad are fully pre- pared to lend their ald in the suppression of ail riot, dis- order and exo:e8 until it can finally be carried into effect. Saréinia, we sre sssured, will pre] 0 ac sept these conditions, for even Count Cavour fully resog- nizes the awful contingencies of his master's between the legions of Austria and the Frevch Emperor is concerned, the forthoom- img Covgrees will furnish the beat ‘test cerity If his objects be no other than those whieh he bas. ng ihe g Haha all ill bo well. We are pot epesking of the host of pamphieteers who have come forward to attribute to him drearoé of unbounded ambi- tion, but of his own words and own acts. He has stated in a public aud formal way that he is seeking the with. drawal of the French garrison from Rome, and, as the necersa'y consequence of such a step, the withdrawal of the Avstrion garrisons from the Ponwficial States. He bas @ perfect rigbt £0 to do, It was not he who sent ths French troops to Rome; on the contrary, as s deputy, be formally avd empbatically protested against the mea- sure. His letter to Edgar Ney is farthermore on reed, toshow what his views were at that tme; he has right t say they are unchanged. I) is clear that as loog as bie troops are at Rome he must be reckone! among the oppressors of Italy, aud ever be liable to such attacks agaivet hie )ifees that foul and murderous crime which Ontini meditated. Why sbould be not endeavor to free bimecl{ from euch a danger? We hold it algo natural that Louis Napoleon should sympathize with the cause of Nalian independence, for which he tought in oartter days. He bas now a great opportunity of proving t> the world ‘thet bie sympathy is a reality, and note miserablo mask for persoual ambition. What’ can Louis Napoleon desire more than to free two thirde—we sbould rather say thres- fourthe—of the Ttalian penivsula from the presunce of forelyn troops, and practically to recopatitnte Italy asa ration? Could he hope for such a result from three suc- ceseful campaigns ? SARDINIA PROTESTA AGAINST HER EXCLUSION FROM THE PEACE CONGRESS. Under dete'of the 22d of March, the same day upon which the Paris Monitcur announced the proposal of a Covgrees by Russia, Count Cavour addressed a circular agents at foregn ieion of Piedmont from the Congress. ‘The following is an analysis of the despatch, which we take from the Courrier du Dimanche:— Count Cavour commences by saying that be has just received by telegraph the announcemect in the Paris Moniteur that Ruseia proposes a Congress to settie the difference reiative to Italy, and that France accepts the proposal. Count Oavour then expresses the painful surprise expe- rienced by Piedmont that she should be excluded from the Congress. Ho protests against that exclusion, which he describe just, suggesting that having no interest in the Crimean war, Piedmont, nevertheless, took a very sc- tive part in the military operations of the allied Powers, that it spared no sacrifices either in men or money, an states that that exoedition cost Piedmont frem 3,000 to 4,000 men and 50,000,000 france. The Minister of Foreign Affairs is firmly convinced that Piedmont having, mercover, aftor the Eastern war, beea called upon to take partion labors of the Congress open- d at Paris to conclude the treaty of peace, and more re- cently to join the conferences which regulated tuo sitaa- tion of the Danubian Principalities—arrangoments in which it bad no interest—is fally entitled to have a voice in the deliberations of the five great Europeea Powers when its own existence ie at stake, Count Cavour cannot understand the argument that if Piedmont ie admitted to the Congress all toe other Itaiian States should be adm tted likewise. [a addition to tho above cited considerations which entitle it to a distiact Privilege from its neighbors, Piedmont appeals t tae pe. culier circumstances which have preceded the proposal of @ Congress. Russia did not spontaneously propose to the five great European Powers a consideration of the gene- ral state of affairs of the Italian peniosula with a view to improve the condition of the inhabitants. The point of ‘the question is to be found in the complaints of Piedmont respecting the position Austria bas assumed towards it, and the covpter complaints Austria has brought forward in reply. The Congress, therefore, bas to decide betwoen Anstria and Piedmont; and is Austria to be allowed a voice in the Congress, whilg Piedment is to be excluded? Count Cavour then drawa a distinction between the position Piedmont would hold at the Congress comprred with the other Italian States. The government of Kiog Victor Emmanuel bas alwaye sbown great solicitnie for the sufferings of Italiacs not gubjscts of Pieamont; the otber governments, on the covtrary—all allics of Ans tria—act in concert with her, pay no heed to these suf- ferings, and bave constantly opposed all reforms; their representatives would coneequently attend tae Congress simply to eupport Austria and thwart tae views of Ea, rane, t moat be far different if the people sohjeqted to the domipatton ur wer government were allowed w send delegates to the Congres to explain the grievances which weigh upon them, avd under which they chafe. Count Cavour concludes by recapituiating tho dangers ‘that will arise from the maintenance of the satus qu, in Italy, declaring that if the great European Powers let silp the opportunity for improving the condition of Italy and pacity ing it, the responsibility of ulterior events will fall upon them entirely, Piedmont declining the slightest part in it, THE LATE AUSTRIAN VIOLATION OF SARDINIAN TERRITORY. The following is the text of protest sent by Count de Cavour to Count Brassier de St. Simon, the Prus- sian Minister at Turin, against the violation of tho Sardinian territory by an Austrian patrol:— . ‘Tunis, March 20, 1859, Frxexuiexcy—I have just been informed by the comps. tont Iccal authorities that last night eleven armed Austrian infantry £0'diers, commanded by a sergeant, violated the Sardinian territory at the passage of Limido, near the piace called Stanzaverde, by penetrating by Sa>bione iato the territory of Carbonara. These mean did not retarn inwo Lombardy until a quarter past five in the morning by toe bridge of Gravellons. They declared that they had lost their way, and they requested to be directed to the Pavia road. Taking into account the explanations given by three soloiers, and without giving to Unis fact an importance which it perbaps does not merit, I neverthelese think it my duty to point it out to the attention of the Oabinet of Vienpa. This violation of territory might have beea at- tended with very serious consequences if the King’s go- vernment bad followed the example of that of Austria, aad placed advanced posts on the extreme limite of ve fron- tier, In such a case if the Austrian patrol had been met by our soldiers, a collision would Dave been inevitabie. T consequently leave to the impartial judgment of any un- prejudiced person to jadge of the disastrous effects which the measures adopted by the Cabinet of Vieuna might produce if the King’s government did not endeavor to guard against them by a conduct fullof reserve and mo deration. I request on Exco'lensy to make what pro. cedes known to the Cabinet of Vieana. Accept, &o. ©. vavula. LORD DERBY’S POSITION AS A MINORITY MINISTER. From the London Times, Aprit 4 } The minds of many excellent people have been much detorbed by the serious reeuite which they apprehended would ensue from the ministerial defeat of Tauraday inst. Some dreased & dissolution, and saw ia the mirror of their imegination an electoral covtest transcending in violeace the stroggle which shook the country to its coatre eight and twevty years ago, Others have been deep'y coa cerned for the.premature extinction of the Derby miaistry, rutbleesly sacrificed to iis passion for electoral uniformity. We trost that we may this morning relieve these anxieties. There will be, a Sir Robert Poal says, ‘no “ golution of continuity.” Those who argue that the minietry muet either dissolve or res'gn, have overlooked the fact that to them, as to all other mortals, “ toreo courses are open.” The miniatry, we betteve, will aeithor resign nor dissolve; they will simply retain their offices and await the result of their determination in the same spirit of meekness and loog suffering in wnich they bave formed it. The words of Tord Palmerston, which were generally thought to be spoken in a spirit of sarcastic iropy, and to cbalk out for Lord Derby's goveramont a course which it was utterly imporstble they ahou'd adopt, have turned ont literally true. He condemsed them to retain their places, and they accept the condemnation aud remain accordingly. BBLeaving the ministry, however, to take caro of their own honor, we most observe that, grateful as the couatry will no doubt be for the sacrifice they make in continuing to administer its affairs under circomataaces which they have just declared to be impossible, it has a right to de- mand something more from them than the mero retention of their places, It hos a right to expect that they will do the work that bas to be dope, and that in tho same spirit of humility by which they have been bitherto acta sted they will address theameives to the task of preparing a Reform bill upon the lines laid down for their guidance in tue epeeches of Lora John Russell, Lord Palmerston and Sir James Graham. They have lected toretamn their plasos under what may be catled, in the fangnage of our feudal Jaw, a baso or rorvile tenure, aud they mist aot grum io at avy work their masters may set thom todo Tao only terms on which their ministerial extatenos can bo protracted are, that they should prepare a Reform bill on principles to be gether from the resolution ot the flouse of Commons and the speeches of its principal gupoo-turs, Ii they d2 this we, for our part, shail see no rewoa to grudgo them the eftension of office they may guia by it, and sball even be disposed to admit that they have flied a not upserviceablo part in retiiing the question of reform, We rejoice, too, that by this course we ehali be enabled wo bear Sir Edward Balwer Lytton’e account of the gtorios of hie oniau campaign, and to learn from Lord Stanley some. thing more than we yet know of the state of our Indian finances, @ desire to readjust which ia probably the best excuse that can be offered for his coxtinaance in office after the result of the vote which he challenged, A FRENCH ARMY ORDERED TO THE SARDINIAN FRON- ‘TIRR— ANTI-FRENOH DEMONSTRATION IN HANOVER.

He rejoiced at the generous support his government had recived, and expressed the conviction that there was no cobesicn in the opposition, and that it would be diseo!ved the next moment by the conilicting opinions of its various eections. The cabinct had resolved to diesolve Parliament as soon as the public business per- mitted, both because they thought the country onght to be consulted at the present crisis, and because the interests of peace would suffer from a change of administration. Mr. Dieraeli made a correeponding announcement in the Commons. Parliament proceeded with its usual business, and no date had been fixed upon for the dissolution, although it was expected to take place beforo Easter. In the House of Commons on the 6th inst. Lord Pal- merston defended bimeelf from the imputations cast on him by Ministers, and criticised Lord Derby’s course. Sir J. Parkipgton replied, and reiterated the assertion that Lord Palmerston had mado the direct threat that if the Crown exercised ita right to disaolye Parliament the House might refuse the supplies. Other speeches were also made on the subject. On the 7th, in the Mouse of Lords the Indian seven mil- lions loan Dill was passed. to asecond reading. In the course of his remarks on it, Lord Derby said that next week a vote of thanks would be proposed to the Governor General and Commander. in-Chief and the other officials in India, and tbat a form of thankagiving for the restoration of peace would be presented. Ta the House of Commons Mr. Disracli, in reply to 8i- G. C. Lewis, after deprecating being called upon to make partial Srancial statements, said that It was hia tateation to pay off two milton pounds of the Exchequer bills fali ing due in May, and that he did not contemplate there would be any ueceesity of borrdWing for that purpose. On the 8th, in tho House of Lords, Earl Malmoabury said that he hoped to be able to make @ statement to the Houee before the prorogation, which would show that the government had done all it could to preserve the peace of In the House of Commons Lord Palmerston hail given notice of question respecting ‘‘oar foreign relations and the affairs of Europe,” but at the urgent request of Mr. Disraeli he postponed it. Mr. Disraeli announced that in a day or two ho would make @ statement on the subject. Mr. Bramsn asked the Secretary of the Treasury whe- ther, Sir Samuel Cunard baving offered throngh a deputa- tion which waited on the Admiralty and Treasury Depart ments, to convey the mails weekly between an Irish port and America for the sum of £500 the voyage, ont and home, it was the intention of thé government to persevere in completing the contract for £3,000 for service fortnight ly between Galway and America? He demsnded on tho part of the public that this offer should be duly consi. dered. Sr S. Noxmncore eaid that the offer of Mr. Conard was to call at Cork on the way from Liverpool to America, ani on the return, for £500, ‘The Galway offer involved a third American service in addition to two now undertakea weekly; batas the Gal- ‘way service was only furtaightly, thero would be thre services in one woek and only twoin another. This was felt to be inconvenient, and it was thercfore proposed to ask tho American government to undertake a postal ser- vice in alternate weeks, not comprised in the Galway sor- vice, and if Amerioa declined, it was proposed to make a similar offer to Cunard. It was therefore the intention of the government to complete a contract with the Galway line, The subject was further discussed by mauy members pro and contra, The merita of Cork and Galway are canvassed,and the demand was almost general that the government should not make a cou- tract without the ‘consent of the House. Mr. Dis racli said it would be a new precedent to have con tracts in the firet instance submitted tothe House: oon’ tracts were conttantly granted without previous tener. He recal'ed the facts of the Galway undertaking; the com pany offered pecutiar facilities for the traaeport of troops for the government; he, therefore, thought it right to adopt, on its own responsibility, a policy it felt to be ad” vaptageous and im accordance with duty. The amount would, as a matter of course, appear in the estimates be- fore any money can be paid. No date had been fixed for the digsolution of Parlia- ment. The candidates were flooding the country with ad- dreeres to their constituents, Lord Palcoreton, in his al dress, asverts that the simple question at issue is the me- rite of the government Reform bill.
