H. Webb and Captain Comstock. &c., ds, It 18 greatly feared here that the peace in Western Rurope will pot be of long duration. The conduct lately pureved by Napoleon III. is not calculated to inspire coa- ‘dence, and he begins to develope projects which may vopeiderably alter the intimacy that subsists between bis Vourtand ours, There are strong suspicions that, noi withstanding bis professions of disinterestedness, be in. ends, if Dot to aggrandize bis own empire by the aunexa- ‘on of Savoy, at least to establish a branob of bis dynas:y u Central lia'y, It seems that the people of Tuscany, wboare dreadiully afraid of the return of their Grand (rake, have received a hint that the only way to prevent such a consummation will be to offer the sovereigaty of ‘heir country to the French Emperor’s cousin, in whose favor the kingdom of Etruria, one of the creations of Na- boleon I., would thus be yestored. The consent of Austria +o this arrangement is said to have been given in a secret srcicle of the treaty of Villafranca. in return tor which she was allowed to retain the fortresses of the Quadrilatée; and it was oniy to save appearances tnat the reinstalment of the exiled Grard Duke was ostepaibly made one of the conditions of peace, though it was known well enovgh thet he could never come back; except under the proves on of an armed force, which Austria was unable, aud France ut willing, to aflerd him. If we are not mistaken, Prince Gortachekoff bas been sounded on this subject oy the French Emperor; but it is not provable that our go verLment will approve of archeme which would de facto convert Italy into s province of France. To obtain the sdberence of Russia, it oas been insiouated that the peopie of Tuscany, being free to elect sheir own aoversign, woud be quite as likeiy to chocge ibe Dake of Leuchtenbery as tbe representative of Eugene Beauharnais, whose mame is still so popuiar in Italy; ba such = bait is too clumsy for our siatesmea © swallow, as they must be sure that the jesioury of tne great Powers, and of France most of all, would never allow a Ruesian prince—and such the Duke of Leucnten- berg is to all intents and purposes—10 ocoupy an Italian throne. Prince Gortschakoff is still persuaded that the best way to effect a permanent settlement of Italy is to convoke a European Congress; for no one expects the Confereaces of Zurich to ead toa result satisfactory, not only to the contracting parties, but to the rest of Europe. France is ioterested in leaving everything at sixes and sevens, 80 ‘bat ebe may be adie to interfere woen her poiltics! aims require it, and Austria is too doggedly attached to her retrograde notions for her to agree to any arrangement in which the wishes of the populadons are consulted, upless she {s forced to co so by an overwhelming expression of opinion on the part of the other Powers, It is, therefore, quite netural that she sbouid oppose @ Copyress with all ber might and mein; and ai- \Douga the Emperor Napoleon pretends to be favora sie to one, itis by no meeps certain that he realty deires it On th:s sucject the views of Russia ana Eogiand are identical, aud 1 18 owing to this circumstance that tbe coolness bet ween our Cabivet und the Sritien government haa ip measure sudsiced, and our mutual relasions ba’ wore iriendly than they bsve been for many years.

It is a signiti- vant fect that our Meaiterranean squadroa has rea cezvoused this year at Spithead, instead of golug suio Cherbourg; bor can there be apy doubt that the visit of Grand Duke Vopstantine to Queen Vioioria is not en- Orely witbout political bearing. An alliance with Russia would be much more to the personal taste of the Brisieh Queep than that with Napoleon, whicn she was forced into by popurar clamor and by the policy of her Ministers, {vie perbupe not generally known toat sho is 8 goddaugh- ser of our Emperor Alexander 1., in houor of whom she dears the name of Alexandrina When the Duxe of sexe Coburg, her motber’s brother and the father of ber buavaod, was driven into exile by tho first Napoleon, he sought refuge at the Uourt of 3%.
