Th Barveet in Prance— Political Complications on the Oort- | The Relations Between Austria and Prussia—The German givings respecting its harvest. The nights are cold as November; the ground is saturated by perpetual show- ere; vegetation, chilled by the unceasing galee from the northwest, is becoming mipped. There is yet time if the harvest sun woul’ but break forth, for never gid the land #0 teem with produce of every kind. The rally Light character of the soil, Iie mont of ite peopie, is only #0- bered or coudensed by such veusual humidity, and the abundance of the wheat and wine crop is apparently without example. The advent of the folar rays must, however, be speedy, for in many parte the corn is fear- fully beaten down, and, if suffered to stagnate much Jonger in tts moisture, must inevitably perish. The immediate effect of such unsesaonable weather {a Paris is to quite change the ordinary face of things. The shops, ordinarily so gay with their gossamer textures, are hung with the sombre comforts of incipient winter. The etreets are redolent of mud and remarkable for the utter absence of the softer sex, who fear to expose the rich and semewhat unwieldy teilettes of the present day to the rude encounter of the elements and the accessories thereto pertaining. Those whe rejoice in leathera conve- iences or their own vBitures kave already vanished elee- where, #0 that there is nothing but duiness over the face of Paris the Beautiful. In politics there is a seneible lull. Everything seems to bang upon the breath of Garibaldi. All are looking towards the Neapolitan coest, impatient for that bescon which shall indicate that the unification of Italy kas at last been inaugurated. The fencing which has been ex- hibited on the part of the Austrian and Sardinian jovroais clearly shows that I was well informed when I stated to you that a communication of an unpleasant character had been made by the former Power, though not of the pgsi- tive-character rumor had ascribed to it. The secret is graduaily oozing out that Austria has gone as far as to say that although she doee not interpose between the King of Naples and his subjecte, and has no manner of right to doo, yet that she is quite prepared to take her own course should the King of Sardinia do so. I have heard that Garibaldi’s existence was superbly ignored, as was the very notion of any assault upon Venetia. The inces- sant supply of warlike material bebind the Mincio, which fs going on even in an increasing ratio, is perbaps held to be a sufficient indication of what she means. If, ‘as is etated, Garibaldi has landed at Bagnare with @ con- siderable force, we shall soon see the first act of this ex- traordinary drama. A general belief pervades all circles in Paris that there will not be any s@rious fighting, but that the King of Naples will walk out by the back door ‘ag the Sicilian Dictator enters by the front. Letters from various shades of party, which are from time to time shown me here, agreeing im nothing else, are all unani- mous in stating that nothing but abdication is left for Ferdinand I. ‘The Emperor and Empress left St. Cloud yesterday for their promised visit to Savoy and Nice. The Duchess d’Albe, the Empress’ sister, has been so seriously indis- posed, at her hotel in the Champs Elysées, that their Ma- jesties’ departure was postponed as long as possible. The Duchess d’Albe is now, however, understood to be con- valescent. The hope of the dynasty—the little Prinoe Imperial—does vot accompany his parents, but is left under the charge of Marsbal Vaillant at St. Cloud, and in his absence, of General Rolin, Adjutant General of the Palace. This is the first occasion when the little Prince has been released from ‘petticoat’ government. Marshal Vaillant, as member of the Privy Council and Grand Mar- shal of the Palace, will sit in the Council of Ministers. ‘The Prince de Metternich, during the Imperial sojourn in the provinces, retires to his seat in Bohemia, It is known that strong representations have been made by him tothe Emperor as regards the position of Austria in the proba- ble contingency of an attack on Venetia, and that their object has been to elicit a declaration of non-interference in cage of @ collision with Sardinia. The Emperor's re- plies are said to be courteous, but to the effect that at Present everything depends on the solution of the Neapo- re eo in very earncat, if not abject terms, for protection, now that, forsooth, he had conceded & constitution aad stripped himself of Bieily.

League—Will Austria Interfere in Naly?—F ruits of the | Toplite Convention, dc., dc. | While the reactionary and official printe continue to ex: | patiate on the happy results attained mt the conferences of Toplitz—while the Emperor of Austria, who was never known before to utter a dozen consecutive words, sud- denly begins to discourse grandiloquently about German unity, patriotiem, fraternity; and what not—the public of this country are growing daily more alarmed at the pros- pects opened to them by the eiliance so unexpectedly struck up. The fact memtioned in my previous reports, ‘that Pruseia would consider the intervention of France in Italy ane casus belli, only became generally known here last week, and caused a regular panic, which was increased ty the anaouncement that the Austrian government had seat & note to Turin tntimating that they would not allow @artbaldi 4o make an attack upon the continental do- minions of the King of Naples, and would oppose it, if neoessary, by force of arms. I did not allude to this ru- mor in my last communication, being aware that it was, tf not quite unfounded, at least premature; but it is unde- miable that the assurance of Prussian support has bad a most exhilarating efect upon the Cabinet of Vienna, aud induced it to evinoe a much higher tone than it had veu- tured to do since the rout of Solferino and the capituls tion of Villafranca. There was a moment when Ausiria might perhaps have been willing to give up Ve netia for # suitable equivalent either in moncy or in ¢erritory. but since the interview of Toplitz she is more determined than ever not to yield an inch, and she even fiattors herself with the hope of retrieving her losses, and taking signal revenge upon the Italian “rebels” and their abettors. Iam mo- rally convinced, notwithstanding the official démentis, that the abstract contained ina Belgian paper of the engage- ments entered into between Prussia and Austria is in the main correct, and that the paragraph acknowledging the importance of the possession of Venice by the latter for the safety of Germany expresses the opinion of the Prince Regent himself, Strangely enough, he had taken it into his bead that similar views were entertained by the Brit- ish government, and that in case of hostilities breaking out England would join him in maintaining the integrity of the Austrian empire. Whether he was: reigns, who are accustomed to regard pleasure as law, and public opinion as nothing—but tt ap- pears certain that he was seduced by this idea to go fur- ther in his promises to Austria than bis cautious na- ture bad hitherto permitted, Though the last doapatobes received from Fngland must have completely cure’ him of the hallucination be was laboring under, the misoniet jused by ft is done, and cannot be undone; he has not, deed, signed an actual treaty with Austria, but ne bas given which he wiil be unable to recede from without d and which the Kaiser will assuredly ia- sist upon his redeeming. that Prussia should have involved herself so gratuitously in the troubles that are agitating the South of , a8 people were beginn! to breatte more freely and to hope that she would in maintaining the pacific policy which she has pursued for many yoars past, and content herself with extending her influence in Germany by introducing interval reforms and presenting the spectacle of a free government instead of ® military absolutism, After the meeting of the Prince Le ey with Louis Napoleon at Badew Baden, it was thought that the dreaded collision with Frauce was adjournec sine dic; the funds rose, and an vemeut was visible in almost every bravch of trade.

Srauoruup, Sept, 7, 1860. To-day was the fourth and last day of the Spring{eld National Horee Show, and most successfully wound up the week's proceedings. This hes been by far the most successful exhibition ever held in the United States, whetber as regards the number and high quality of the animals shown, the immense assemblage of spectators present or the number of States that contested for the various premiums offered by the society. Upwards of $9,000 have been distributed in prizes, while the re ceipta for entrances and admission fees, up to last night, considerably exceeded that amount. The weather has been remarkably favor- able, although on Thursday « smart passing shower fell daring the afternoon, but not sufficient to drive the spectators off the ground. The management of the affair has been characterized by an energy, business ability, promptitude and liberality rarely witnessed. Punctuall- ty was rigidly observed and the programme of proceed- ings faithfully carried out, The hotels were densely crowded with guests, and the private hospitality of the inbabitants ot Springfield was largely taxed, y ly and heartily met. Almost every house had its quote of guests, and all seemed to vie in their endeavors to promote the comfort and enjoyment of their stranger visiters. To the committee of managing directors the preas are deeply indebted, not only for their unceasing ef- forts to place them in possession of every information re- lative to the business details of the exhibition, but also for many individual acte of courtesy and hospitality. Every facility and accommodation was afforded them for discharging their peculiar dyties, and it is with pleasure we take the opportunity of recording the indebtedness ‘we, a8 well as others, labor under. The proceedings of this day commenced with a grand entry of horses, by States, in competition for the prize Danser, worth $200. This was to be awarded to the’ State (Agricultural Society), other than Massachusetts, which should, by {ts citizens, enter for exhibition the largest number of valuable horses. The banner itself was a magnificent blue silk banmer, with heavy gold fringe bor- der and gold tassel ropes, surmounted by an eagle. On one side was a beautiful representation of the Hampden Park, with a scene from the last exhibition admirably executed. On the other was the inscription, in gold, of— “State Prize Banner, awarded to —— (for State) at the Fourth National Exhibition of imported blood and Ameri- can breeds of Horses. Springfield, Mass., 1860.”” After some little delay the procession was formed, Ni ‘York leading the van, with Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine, Wisconsin, Massachu- setts and J)!inois succeeding each other ia regular succes- sion. The procession was beaded by Herring’s noted team, with the led horres, comprising some magnificent stallions following. Next were the only two four-in-han41s on the ground, Mr. L.
