J \ . i Genoa this ( Friday ) morning the following order of the day was issued by the Emperor Napoleon : — , « TO THE ARMY OF ITALY ! " Soldiers , —I come to place myself at your head to conduct you to the combat . We are about to second the struggles of a people now vindicating its independence , and to rescue it from foreign oppression . This is a ' sacred cause , which has the sympathies of the civilised world , I need not stimulate your ardour ; every step will remind you of a victory . In the Via Sacra of ancient Rome inscriptions were chiselled upon the marble , reminding the people of their exalted deeds . It is the same today . In passing Mondovi , Marengo , Lodi . Castiglioni * Arcole , and Rivoli , you will , in the midst of those giorious . recollections , be marching hi another Via Sacra . . . " Preserve that strict discipline which is the honour of the army . Here—forget . it not—there are no other enemies than those who fight against you in battle . Remain compact , " and abandon not your ranks to hasten forward . Beware of too great enthusiasm , which is the only thing I fear . " The new armes de precision are dangerous , only at a distance—they will not prevent the bayonet from / being-what it has hitherto been—the terrible weapon of the French infantryv " Soldiers , —Let us all do our duty , and put our confidence in God . Our country expects much froin you . From one end of France to the other the following words of happy augury re-echo :- — ' The new army of Italy will be worthy of her elder sister . ' Given at Genoa , May 12 , 1859 . " Napoleok . "

Proclamation Op British Neutrality. Tjie...
PROCLAMATION OP BRITISH NEUTRALITY . Tjie supplement to the London Gazette of this day ( Friday ) contains a most important proclamation by the Queen . The document commences by setting forth that her Majesty is now happily at peace with all Sovereigns , Powers , and States ; that , notwithstanding the efforts of her government , hostilities have broken out between Austria on one side and France and Sardinia on the other ; that , being on terms of friendship with all of these Powers , and being desirous to preserve to her subjects the blessings of peace , the Queen has resolved to abstain from taking any part , " directly or indirectly , " in the war . Her Majesty , therefore , has thought flit , by and with the advice of her Privy Council , to issue her royal proclamation , and to strictly charge and command all her loving subjects to observe a ejtrict neutrality in and during the aforesaid hostilities and
the said sovereigns , by carrying soldiers , despatches , arms , or military stores will , with their ships and goods , rightly incur , and be justly liable to , hostile capture , and . to the penalties denounced by the law of nations in that behalf . The proclamation concludes thus : — "We do hereby give notice , That all our subjects , and persons entitled to our protection who may misconduct themselves in the . premises , will do so at their peril , and of their own wrong ; and that they will , in no wise Obtain any protection from us against such capture , or such penalties as aforesaid , but will , on the contrary , incur Our high displeasure by such misconduct . "
Tfftr . } , ft . Tho proojaniatjlon proceeds to oite the various provisions and ponaltiea of the 59 th Geo . III ., entitled , " An Act to prevent the enlisting or engagement of his Majesty ' s subjects to servo in a foreign service , and the fitting out or equipping , in his Majesty ' s dominions , vessels for warlike purposes without his Majesty ' s license 5 " » n <* adds , " In order that nono of Our subjects may unwarily render themselves liable to the penalties imposed by the eald statute , We do hereby strictly command that no perBtra or persons whatsoever , do commit any act , matter , or thing whatsoever contrary to the pro-Yislona of the said statute , upon pain of the several prattles by the BaW statute imposed , and of Our high dlBpleaauro . " ' British subjects nrct also warned that all persons endeavouring to break any blookade 'established by

Fatal Ac ' cident at the Westminster Palace Hotel . : —This ( Friday ) morning , an accident of a most deplorable nature , attended with the sacrifice of five human beings , and serious , if not fatal , consequences to Oight other persons , happened at the works going on to form the great hotel , situate at the corner of the new Victoria-street , Westminster . The building had reached the height of ninety feet , and a scaffolding of corresponding height had been erected for the workmen . Some of the supporters had been improperly removed by the labourers . This morning the men , amongst whom were thirteen bricklayers and labourers , were employed upon the upper stage . About half-past six , owing to the accumulation of bricks and mortar , and the weight of the men , the stage snapped asunder about the middle * and the whole of the thirteen men were hurled to the bottom , a distance of seventy feet at least . The whole thirteen were rescued in a veryshort time , and conveyed to the Westminster Hospital . Not one had escaped from being fearfully mangled ; four were dead , and another died about three hours afterwards , and there are small hopes of any of the other sufferers recovering . The Suspected Poisoning at EicinrosD . — This morning the adjourned inquest was held in the Vestry Hall , Richmond . Some additional evidence was given , and the coroner observed that he had yesterday seen Professor Taylor , and found that the necessary tests had been completed . It was useless to examine a number of other witnesses until it was first ascertained whether death resulted from natural causes , and he should , therefore , adjoiirn the inquest ,- for the . ' attendance of Professor Taylor , until "Wednesday week . -
