If Mr. Bowlby ever does come back, we may look for the best book on China ever written, even surpassing Mr. Wingrove Cook's.

Vietor Ema- nuel bas returned from Sicily, where he was reeeived with a perfect furor of enthusiasm.

Your proposition is correct, that no place in Italy is tho fit and proper one for the capital of the entire country except Rome itself. The only ohjoo tion that can be urged will be the climate; but with pro- per appliances any country can be made habitable that possesses the elements and basis of culture and fertility. With Francis IL. at Rome, and the inexplicable conduct of the French Emperor, no sort of hope for Italian unity and stability can be indulged in.

It will take that length of time toconsolidate all his plans and schemes. One of our great men of the past two generations— thenian Aberdeen’'—bas just departed this life. Born about the same time as Clay, Calhoun, Webster and Van Buren, he bas seen and assisted at mere political changes than fall to the lot of most mortals. Commencing p iblic life more than fifty years ago, he has tilted every grade of office under the Crown, up to the highest he First Lord of the Treasury at that most t period, the war in the Crimea. A leading Fate ums up his career by contrasting him with Peel:—‘‘The one a state:- man continually inconsistent, and always snocessful; the other a statesman always consistent, but in two im- portant crises identified with misfortune and failure.’ A man of great good sense, learned, and joving learning for learning’s eake, he has done great good in eminent positions that can only be filled in this country by one high up in the political, moral, social and tatel- Jectual scale. More solid than brilliant, always conserva- tiv®, a man of many friends and few enemice, he leaves the entire country to meurn forhim. I had the honor of his acqnaintance, and can say that I never kuew a kinder or more courteous man.

Austria bas done all that could be done, and is now on a war footing such as must inevitably foree upon her war or bankruptey. France is, to my certain knowledge, steadily preparing for any emergency, and her naval forces are being most effectually organiaed and increased.

Poinsot, dc., de. ‘The Empress is once more at home in the palace of the hereditary kings of France. His Majesty gave her the rendezvous at Amiens, and at balf-past six o’clock P.M. she yeeterday reached the Tuileries, ‘The royal divertissement is almost a vechawffe of the Prince of Wales’ visit to the United States, and the con- sequences bid fair to be scarcely lees important. How often, when the passions are disturbed and running riot between individual members of society, and the breach in all kindly relations seems irréparable, will some acci- dent—trivial in itself as the flutter of an insect’s wing— a look, the prattle of a child, some slight physical pain— call out ail the hidden sympathies, and the unfathomable gulf ie bridged over as by enchantment, The same would seem to be true of nations. [t will need a quar- ter of a century’s angry words to obliterate the sweet impression made on the English mind by the enthusiastic welcome given by the people of America to England’s heir apparent. 1 will not go 90 far as to say that the reception which has just been bestowed on the Empress of the French will héte a similar effect on the French people. The cases are totally dissimilar, but the consequences may posaibly be not unlike. In America it is.an imperial people that stamps all political acts with its will and seal; hence a conciliated people and an amicable govern- ment are but synonymous terms. Here it is, as in the days of Louis XIV., L’Ftat c'est moi—and if moi is pleased, moi, with 500,000 troops and a navy in propor- tion, the State or people is quiescent. To leave metaphor, and speaks plain Fnglish, it is very certain that the Emperor has been sensibly affected by the hearty good will exhibited by the English towards the Em- press. A gentleman who aséisted at the dinner at the Tuileries on the Empress’ return informs me that the Emperor was loud in his expressions of gratitude, and said that when so much bad been done to prejudice the people’s minds against the French government, it might well have happened that some coarse expression shoekd have been uttered in the presence of ono #0 near to the chief of the State; but, on the contrary, though the Em- press had found the country bristling with bayonets, which had no other object than—under certain contingen- cles—the life blood of Frenchmen, not a sound had reached the ear of the Empress and her suite but that of friendly weleome and unbounded good will. M. Por- signy, who was present, took up the theme, and the first banquet that graced the Empress’ return may fairly be termed an English ovation. In fact, the close of the year 1860 sounds like the knell of war's alarms. England, France and Rossia have coun- selled the young King of Naples that euough has been done for big honor, and that in yielding now ke will only from such parties is a command, and Francis Tf. tias only to say—To hear ie'to obey.’ Then there is the Anglo- French treaty, which, after al! the criticiem ite authors have been exposed to, is being very well received by both countries. Ta France ali the commercial men I meet with speak of it cheeringly, and eeem to ougur a brisk trade and greater general happiness. Tho Frenchman is always onthuelastic on the subject of the moment, whether it be peace or war, commerce or glory, and just Low it is no Uncommon thing to hear from lips, that a few months ago were loud in their denunciations against ihe eternal perfidy of England, admirable éalogiecs on the merite of Brotherly love and waion between the two prend Powers of the carth. Weil, and berides such signs of the times we have also the recent liberal movements of the government. You Will sce in your files of the Engtish papers such copious extracts from the Fret.ch journals concerning the relative state Of the prees in Fngland and France—the conse- quence of M. Persiguy’s very admirable essay on the eulhject—that it is only necesaary forme to give youa evwmary of what, w far 9s Ihave been able to gather it, is the general opinion, which is, in brief, this: That the prere of France bas conceded to it at this moment all that ip common fairnces it can reasonably expect.

Hesse Cassel Rejects the Hessian Charter—Atttiude of Prue- via—Austrian Influence wih the German Princes—Difi- culties Encountered by the Prussian Government—The Prussian Police—Prince Lowis of Hesse Darmetadt, che. ‘the Chambers of Hesse Casael haye done their duty and given a great example to the Legislative Assemblies of the rest of Germany. By a mojority of thirty-eight to seven they have rejected the sham charter offered to them by the Heasian governmeat, and voted an address to the Elector, declaring that they consider the constitu- tion of 1831 as being still in legal existence, and calling upon him to restore it de facto by convoking a new Legis- lature elected in compliance with the provisions of that document. As was to be foreseen, this request was answered by the immediate dissolution of the Chambers; but their indomitable perseverance has coimpletely upset the plans of the reactionists, and brought the question to a crisis which must be decisive for the liberties not only of the Heésions, but of all Germany. if Prassia had taken a bold and resolute stand in this affair, she would now have an excellent opportunity of improving hor po- sition and rallying the whole liberal party around her Dnt through her unfortunate vacillation and faint heortedness ebe bas again suffered the favorable moment | fall in the face of uncontrollable cirenmetanoes, Adyice J 1° PAs, an converted ap event which might nage oeen Of the uimost advantage to her into a new souree of em- Darrasement and perplexity. After advocating tho claims of the Hessian people to the restoration of their constitutional rights, and even withdrawing her arabasea- dor at the Court of the Fiector on finding that he obdst! nately refused to listen to her admonitions, she appears to have got frightened at her own boldness, and Las ever since been anxiously endeavoring to affect a compromire eivising the Chambers in an underband way not to proceed to extremitiog, but to accept the outraged con stitntion on coridition that it should be revised on the hepis of te charter of 1831, inserting sch paragraphs of the tater as were not oppored to the regulations pre scribed by the “federal Diet. Of course ‘his conduct on the part of @ government from whom they had looked for sympathy and cncouragement must have been ex- tremely disheartening to the Hessians, and they deserve the more credit for having remained nnsiioken in their resolution under such adverse elrwumetances; but to Prussia herself it bas been injori os much higher de- gree, and ehe now finds herself involved in @ dilemspa from which sbe will hardly be able to escape without low! of honor, or without a display of energy of which her antecedents afford very little prospoot.
