MAHL DETAILS TO MARCH 6. Our:files and epecial correspondence by tho steamship ‘Hammonia contain the following details of our cable dispatches, additional to the reports which appeared in ‘the Henaty yesterday morning :— A lotver from Khasia, in Greece, published in a Flor- i ence :paper, announces the formation of an Italo-Greek -legion, consisting of four companies, all commanded by -Garibaldian officers. Colonel Aivise-Venezze commands in ¢bief, The letter is written on the march by one of athe ftatian officers. The legion was on ite way to Lamia, con the Turkish frontier, It was raised under very great ‘difficulties and with the scantiest means, The officers ‘had to part with almost everything of value they pos- MUR fsoased in order to get money for the purchase of arma ‘and of bread and olives wherewith to maintain the mea, Arms Were still wanting, and many of the legionaries Sarriedg soythas, like the insurgents in Poland. Greet ide Wlorence papers gives wopderinl geoounte NEW YORK HERALD, of the strength of the Pope’s army. It tells us that at a recent review in the grounds of the Villa Borghese nearly ten thousand men, speaking sixteen Wifferent, languages, were mustered under arms; that there is a strong garrison. at Viterbo, also at Civita Vecchia and at Terracina, and that within two months the Papal forces are likely to be nearly twenty thousand strong. The return issued by the Poor Law Board in Lon- don for December’ shows that at the close of the year 1866 the number of paupers in receipt of relief in Eng- Jand and Wales exceeded 900,000, showing. an increase of 2-5 per cent as compared with the corresponding Period of 1865, but a decrease of 2-6 per cent as com- pared with 1864, owing to the improvement since that time in the manufacturing districts, The increase of pauperism at the close of 1866 was not very great in any division of the kingdom except in London; but there it exceeded 20,000 and amounted to nearly 20 per cent, The number of persons receiving out door relief in Lon- don increased from 71,312 at the end of 1865 to 89,727 at the end of 1866.

GARIBALDI ‘3 ee pag of Marth 4, has the following on the political situation in Germany :— An expression of Count de Bismarck’s perfectly char- acterizes the German mind. Hoe was recently talking to Lord Loftus, the British Ambassador, who exp his astonishment at the large number of particularist elections (where the member seemed to ignore every- thing but his own province) among the La taper of North Germany. “Does that aston'sh you?” said de Bismarck, “if each German was rich enough, be would be delighted to,pay for a king all to himself.”* The Augsburg Gazelte relates that anti-Austrian demon- strations continue in Southern Tyrol, notwithstanding the proclamation of martial law, Arrests also still con- tinue, especially at Trent and Roveredo, At Luzzana some young men carried off the Austrian eagle and burned it, chanting a requiem at the time. A Vienna letter in the Paris Liberté says:— The event of the day is the dissolution of the Diet of Bohemia, What has most struck the public mind is not so much the measare itself, which was expected, as the extraordinary promptitnde of the vovernment in carrying it into execution, Decldetiz, Baron de Beust is not a statesman to lose any time in feeling his way, He decides speedily ard acts alike. The imperial patent in question has generally produced the best impression. From the circumstance of acurb having been in some sort put on the anti-liberal dispositions of the Tcheque party, which hitherto has only been a misfortune for Austria, the inference is drawn that the government has 8 fixed intention of at length ge the country consti- tutional liberties, in the practice of which alone it can find its safety, An Athens letter gives the following :— M. Penieri, Sub-Governor of the Bank of Athens, pro- ceeds to Europe to effect an object of no small impor- tance to Greece. It will be remembered tbat in 1824 and 1825, during the successful struggle of the country to cast off Turkish rule, two loans were contracted in England, amounting now to about £7,000,000. Tho Hellenic government having always refused officially to recognize these obligations, Greek credit in the Euro- pean money market stands at zero. Desirous of rais- ing it, and at the same time of procuring fresh supplies, the present Cabinet has sont M. Penieri to Paris and Lendon to make arrangements for meeting the old claims and to contract a new loan of 25,000,000 francs. The Italian government has given notice at Paris, Brussels and Berne that, in consideration of the annexa- tion of Venetia, it is about to increase from one hundred and forty-one millions to one hundred and fifty-six the amount of lire coined annually in Italy, in conformity with the monetary convention coneluded with France, Belgium and Switzerland. ‘The Opinion Nationale, of Paris, states that the value fixed by the Austrian and Italian governments for the materials left in Venice is 12,000,000 francs. In this sum are not included the sixteen hundred cannon carried off by order of the Austrian government. OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE. ne FRANCE. OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENCE. A Bold Stroke Against the Emperor and Em- pire—The Emperor Charged with Usurpa- tion—Public Sentiment which Warrants the Publication of Back Articles—The Boeufe Aner Pans, March 6, 1867. There is in Paris at least one journalist who dares to “beard the lion in his den,” and that man is Emile de Girardin, the editor of La Léberté, M. de Girardin is cited to appear to-morrow, before the police court, to answor for the publication of an article in a recent issue of his journal, which certainly, for the bold, outspoken manner in which it is written, for the traths which it tells, for defiance of and evident hostility to the ‘‘powers that be,” bas not been equalled during the existence of the Empire, M. Girardin takes for his text a sentence uttered by the Minister of State during the discussion upon the suppression of the address, in which he says:— “We have conducted the country gradually, and each year to higher destinies." ‘M. de Girardin does not seem to be of the same opinion with the Minister of State, and in the article referred to gives a scathing review of the progress of the empire. He acknowledges that since its existence it bas given France some additional territory, but at the too great cost of too much blood and treasure, and at the cost of the unification of Italy and Germany, and the reorgani- zation of the army in such a manner as to mako every able-bodied man a soldier. The Mexican expedition he does not think has done much toward conducting France to ‘higher destinies,” and he charges the government with having lost caste in the course it pursued in last summer's war, and generally in its exterior policy. He denies that the government has been well managed dur- ing the existence of the empire, In the interior he asserts that under the empire France has gained absolutely nothing. In point of com- parative liberty it is far below Germany, England, Bel- gium, Holland and indeed every other country of Eu- rope excepting Spain. What was liberty on the day before the coup d'état became the: next morning intole- rance—what was right only authorization. He denied the statement of the Minister of State that the coup d@état saved Franco from anarchy, and puts before the Emperor his own words, when as President of the repub- lic in 1860 he pronounced these words:—‘To-day I re- cognize with pleasure the fact that tranquillity is re- stored. The dangers which existed two years ago have disappeared, and notwithsianding the uncertainty of things we may count upon the future; for we know that if any cl are to be made they will bo made without trouble’? oa believes that the President then told the aie that there was nothing to fear, Speaking of the @ état he says, and closes the article as follow: that in November, 1851, there was arivalry between the two powers, both of which were the issue of the republican constitution and universal e, but there was nothing more; thore was neither anarchy nor danger of anarchy. ‘huis ig stated on all occasions, and simply for the purpose of rendering hom- age to truth we have never ceased to maintain agninst those who falsfy it—some purposely, others stupiay, This is By accordance with truth, history will write, Ne im aecordance with the truth’; for if the president of the republic had in his hands ‘forces suf. cient to maintain order on the day when he tore up the constitution which he had sworn to maintain, is not this @ manifest evidence that outside of himseif the constitu. tion had nothing to fear? Who would bave attacked it? Who would have dared to attack it against him its defender; him the more invincible, the more ho had for it. No, with or without revi- sion, thero was then absolutely nothing to fear for the maintenance of the constitution, for tho duration of the republic, for the ‘ation, hberty and the continua. tion of order. © two elections of May, 1852, that of the Legislative Assembly, and that of the Presiont of the republic, were accomplished as peaceably as that of 1848; when aithough the a. of the press, and the rig’ bt of assembly were at that epoch without any lecal Tea, and reigned in their plenitude; there was nowhere, jo no city, or commune, a single ‘act committed, whieh cast a shadow upon un versal su! LG =e — the preceding, there isa single word which a contrac what must be thought of the yous re , which the Minister of State bas solemly pronounced, and fgainst the justice of which we pro- ‘teat, with ail the energetic exactiinde of ovr recollections. “No, it is not true that in bis hands the country has been conducted gradualiy and each yenr to higher desti- nica, France is not more powertul than in February, 1861. Isshe more free? Has it de d upon her to provent the irreparable faulte which been commit. ted? And if new faults must come to aggravate them, what means will sho ‘@ to throw in the balance the weight of her opinion?” Emile de Girardin must be a very bold man, ot he must be aware that there is a very a blic sentiment at his back, to dare to write thus, ably both of these facts have led to the publication - his defiant, revolu- tionary article, That despite all the Emperor has done for the. material prosperity of France, despite the appa- = aay Leh -~ is meg eed there MW a “there grow! aveger in nt e' le roon, ant is th See pegs has now been Fr press wi tint em he agi | tor, a8 1 nm Fo) within =: 6 eae of their ruler with them.

Ihe Emperor and Empress patronize it, and when the procession goes to the Tuileries, the raiser and the purchaser of the cattle are both permitted to go in and take agiass of wine with his Majesty, who usually neers, them with a thousand francs toward the pay- t of tho expenses of the procession.

Her Position in Official Despatches, Four despatches, principally addressed to Baron Bru- now, the Russian Ambassador in London, were pub- lished in St. Petersburg March 5, giving a sketch of the attitude and policy of the Russian goveroment in the Fastern question, They are preceded by a preamble, ‘ving as a reason for the unusual course taken in pub- ishing: thera, the serious nature of the present state of things and the liv interest taken by the Russian na- tion in tts coreligion In the first despatch, dated the 20th of Angust, 1866, the government of the Czar proposes collective action on the part of England, France and Ruasia, in order to arrive at a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Candia, pointing out the danger of indifference to the questions at issue and of delay in bringing them to a solution. The second despatch, dated the 12th of September of the same year, explains that the views of the Russian government in the Candian question are of anentirely disinterested natnre, and lays stress upon the necessity of satisfying the legitimate demands of the Cretans, ‘The third despateb, of the 27th of October, contains a statement of various eforts made by Rassia in favor of the Ser but which had been withoutiresu It. The fou: despatch, dated the 234 of November, peta out that in the opinion of Russia the most orable solution for promoting the well-being of the Christian population would be the establishment of their autonomy under the suzerainty of the Porte.

THE RUSSIAN TELEGRAPHS. Aa Imperial Message from St. Petersburg to China. A letter from Khobarovka, on the Amoor river, to the Russian journal the Voice contained the subjoined:— The telegram sent by the Emperor Alexander to the Governor General of Eastern Siberia to announce the marriage of the Grand Duke, heir to the throne, was brought to Khobarovka by a special conrieron the 7th of December, and immediately forwarded by tele; o = tothe headquarters of the battalion of Cossacks of the Oussouri in the Kazakeef, Thence a courier conveyed it to the port of Viadivostok, on the coast of the sea of Japan, where General Korsakoff was staying. The result is that a telegram sent from st.
