company with the two Admirals, to make
a last effort to accomplish a conciliatory
arrangement, had returned to Naples on
the 28th, all attempts having been alto

The Admirals had sent a steamer to
make a circuit of the Island, touching at

make known the last offers presented, with
the mediation of France and England.

ENGLAND.
Parliament adjourned for the Easter re
cess, and met again on the 9th inst. The
two main objects which have divided its
attention, have been the Navigation bill
and the Rate-in-Aid bill for Ireland, which
latter has branched out ;nto a general de
bate on the policy to be pursued toward
that country. It will be seen that some
important modifications have been made
in the Navigation bill. The revenue re
turns for the financial year and quarter
ending on the 5th inst., show a continuous
thougli not a very great improvement in
the Customs revenue. There is an in
crease of 1,1 GO, 554 as compared with
previous year. In the Excise department
there is an increase of jL5G0,632. In all
the branches of the ordinary revenue there
is a decrease, the most considerable item

On our own Continent there begin to
be signs indicating that no great period of
time will elapse before Canada will assume
her position as a free country. A bill has
recently passed the Provincial Parliament
providing that all those parties who sus
tained losses by the attempt at Revolution
in 1837 shall receive indemnity at the
hands of Government. The Royalist
party strenuously opposed the measure
but they were out-voted and should they
strive to prevent the provisions of the act
from being carried into execution, there
will be another struggle for independence,
differing from that of 1837, inasmuch as it
will be successful. The French inhabi
tants, encouraged by the example of their
kindred in Europe, have resolved to be
free in fact, even if they be nominal y
under the English rule, and they will suc
ceed. Such, then, is the political aspect of a
few of the nations of the earth. Does it
not seem to indicate that there is abroad a

govern themselves, and a determination
that they wilff A few years, perhaps
months only, will decide the condition of
the world for a century; and unless we are
mistaken in our views, no great time will
elapse, ere nearly all the civilized nations

may choose to designate their rules. "A

the order of St. Andrew, ennobled and
enriched. Some five and thirty years ago,
she came a servant girl to Russia in a
Scotch trader's family, who turned her
adrift in St. Petersburg. A lucky chance
procured her the situation of under-nurse-ry

be field marshal, and thus an old Scotch
nurse wriil take equal military rank in Eu
