! At The Language Used Towards It In The...
at the language used towards it in the President's last Message , and declares that it is prepared to defend its dignity and rights ; and the Cortes resolve with very unwonted unanimity to support the Government in its defiant attitude ^ Cuba , ! however , is not a whit further removed from . America by these loud words ; and the American \ claims are not likely to be less vigorously urged in consequence of the bluster of Madrid . s The Tonians have left Mr . Gladstone no possible loophole by which he could escape from the conelusion that they desire of all things to be relieved from the friendly protection of England . They ¦ listen quietly to his answer that England cannot relieve-them from the action of the bond , wlnei was signed , sealed , and delivered by the Great Powers in 1 S 1 §; they only reply that , if Englanc will not give up the protectorate , they will , appeal to the said Powers . Witliin a few hours , Governnment has received a report from Mr . Gladstone . The contents of this document have not yet come before the public , but at the very foundation of Mr . i Gladstone ' s advice must be the apparently unal-; terable determination of the ; Ioniaus to cut their connexion with England . ! The news from India by the Bombay mail is for ' the most part satisfactory . Lord Clyde has rapidly : executed one part of his plan , which was to clear . the country between the Goomtce and the Ganges . In accomplishing this , he has beaten Bainie Madhoo , and captured Ametie and Shunkerpoor . ' General Grant and Brigadier Smith have both | gained victories over the flying rebels , the latter j leader inilictiug great slaughter upon them in i Bundelcund . Tantia Topee continues his wonderful J flight . Beaten whenever our officers have a chance 1 of coining up with him , he is still unsubdued , still 1 has a force to fight and to fly with . One item of the news -will be received with universal regret—it is the announcement of the cloatli of that extraordinary aud' admirable man General John Jacob ; it is not too much to say that his loss is a national calamity . At home , the political news of the week is scanty . One of th e most noticeable facts in connexion with tho progress of tlio Reform question is that Mr . Bright is , in self-dcfenoo , obliged to declino attending any more public meetings , with , the oxocption of one at Bradford on the 17 th instant , beforo Parliament assembles . Ministers are all out of town , but a Cabiuot Council is to bo assombled on Monday next , when tho date on whioh Parliament will bo oponcd ia to bo determined . Koport spoaks of I-iOrd Derby ' s dosiro for an oarly opening . , ITivo moi'o arrests have been made during the week in Kilkonny and Belfast . The real uaturo of tho Phoouix . Sooioty , with its numoroue branches , is coming out . Some af the objoots of the confraternity arc to oolleot monoy for tho defence of pri-| ! \
SOME words addressed by the Emperor Napoleon to the Austrian Ambassador on New Ycar ' s-day have set the pulses of the continental nations dancing to a war-tune . The words arc not in themselves remarkable , but , taken in connexion with various occurrences of the hour , they very naturally carry with them a weight sufficient to bear down the price of funds upon the Bourse , and to shake the balance on our own Stock-Exchange . "I regret , " he is reported to have said to Baron Ilubncr , " that our relations with your Government are
not so good as they were ; but I request you to tell the Emperor that my personal , feelings for him arc not changed . " The Moiuteur of : Friday , which was looked for with great interest aud anxiety , contains an announcement which is intended by the French Government to allay the spreading agitation ;' ¦ nothiug in diplomatic relations , it says , authorises the fears that have been excited by the alarming reports that have been current of late . h
But it must appear that this announcement , thoug it may have the cfl ' ect of repressing the rising alarm of the moment , does not carry with it the least assurance of continued tranquillity . The course of events in Italy , in fact , arc not to be controlled by cither France or Austria * and almost any hour may sec France called upon to take the field against Austria . In spite of the denials given to exaggerated accounts of insurrectionary outbreaks in AXilan , the fact remains that in Lombardy the spirit of
revolt is as active as it was in IS'AS , and active under conditions infinitely more dangerous to Austria , namely , the unity of all classes . Franco , it is reported , has proposed to withdraw her troops from Rome , on condition tlmi . Austria will do tho like with her troops in tho Lombardo-Veuctian States , and whether or not the report is well founded , it is calculated to ruiso unlimited hopes in Italy . The alarm of the King of Naples is manifest . It is only a few days ago that wo heard of his adding 18 , 000 men to his army ; this wcok we have him norvoualy sin-inking from any connexion witlv Russia , tho now l ' riond of Sardinia . Russia has established herself in the Mediterranean ,
made in Belgrade for the solemn entry of Prince Milosch , who has accepted the offered throne in face of the demand made by the Porte that a Ivaimaikan , or viceroy , should be appointed . There is so much unanimity among the ascendant party that an easy solution of this part of the difficulty is looked for . The Servians have no present desire to anger the Sultan , but it appears that it has required the good ofiiccs of the foreign ambassadors , and particularly of Sir Henry Bulwer , to persuade him aguiust acting upon the suggestion of the Austrian Ambassador , which was to dissolve the Skuptschiua ,
or National , Assembly . From Constantinople the news is curious as well as interesting . There is no end to the troubles of those who administer the finances of the empire , for everything connected with tho Turkish treasury is more or loss complicated with wrong . A strange scene was lately enacted , the Sultan playing a new part , lie was besot by a crowd of working people clamorous for arrears of pay , and—lie was obliged to pay them ! But a more important fact is , that thoso members of his family who lately foil undor the ban of his passing displeasure have been reinstated in tho Council—Aali Pasha , who had the credit of having caused thorn to be drivon out , still holding his own . Stories arc rife in Constantinople that there has been vast jobbory at work with tho proeocda of tho late loan ; tho Government , novortholoss , perseveres in its intention of buying up a largo quantity of tho popor money , although it ia porploxcd by tho groat number of forged notes in oi io ulation . Mi . Buchanan ' s ailur to settle th , o Cuban difficulty by buying the island from Qpaiji has led to a demonstration of virtuous indignation in tho Spanish Covtos . Spain , speaking by tho mouth of Marshal O'Dpnnell , expresses unlimited indignation
! ' j ' ' . I | diplomatic circular , were spoken advisedly irian , ti- 1 eipalion of the commencement of "the inevitable ' Italian struggle in . the coming spring . ' In the mean while , the Austrian military force in . Italy is said to . amount to 100 , 000 or 120 , 000 ? men , and the papers both of Vienna and Berlin speak confidently of her preparedness in every re- 1 spect , A council of war is expected shortly to assemble in Venice to consider the state of affairs in Italy , and several officers of high rank , including j 2 nd _
\ . ! j ' } j : Count F . Giulay , Commander-in-Chief of the . corps d ' armcc , arrived in Venice at the end of last . month . A few days back we heard of the projected j movement of Austrian troops towards the Ser- ; vian frontier , on account of the recent events in , Belgrade , but the report has been contradicted , and : ' it is probable that at the present moment every ¦ ' Austrian soldier that Can be moved will have his .. face turned towards Italy—and France . . j The Servian revolution makes progress . Pre- , parations , according to the latest news , were being
but tho King of Naples will not hear of a " Russian coaling station" in the Adriatic , whero Austria has lately been makiug extraordinary ofl ' orts to increase her naval power . Another significant fact has bocomo known during tho week ; it is that , Garibaldi , the Commandcr-in-Chiof of tho Roman troops in 184-8 , has . boon recalled from Nloe to bo consulted on tho formation of a Sardinian National Guard , or Volunteer Corps . The conclusion scorns irrusiatiblo tlflit tho words lately spoken by tho King to his military officers , anil afterwards repeated in , spirit by Count Ocvvouv in his lithographed
