SATURDAY AFTERNOON. "Park, Thursday Evening.
" Lord Cowley left on Monday evening for London. He had previously had a long conversation with the Emperor, in which his Majesty fully explained his view of the great Italian question, and expressed his willingness to make all the concessions in his power in order that the two countries might take the same line of action. It is believed that Lord Cowley has conceived a plan which the two Governments, by making mutual concessions, may work out together.
" His Lordship is also empowered to express the regret of his Majesty that the good relations between the two countries should be endangered by injudicious newspaper articles. His Majesty, to show his good will, has ordered that attacks on England shall cease in all papers professing to support the Government.
" The French Government has' at the same time, withdrawn its opposition to the appointment of M. Buoncompagni in the in- terests of public order. The resignation of Garibaldi is also taken to signify that there will be no fighting. " Hence a much better feeling has arisen ; the only obstacle now remaining to the immediate meeting of the Congress is a slight divergence in opinion between the Governments of England and France, which Lord Cowley's tact and ability will, we must hope, soon cause to disappear. Public Securities have assumed a firmer tone, and a great change for the better has taken place since last week."
[Our readers may see in one passage of our correspondent's letter a statement of facts which will account for the curious report circulated by the purveyors of telegrams that Lord Cowley had come over with pro- posals for a simultaneous disarmament] We subjoin the remainder of our correspondent's letter which treats of lighter subjects :— The French Government has been buying up all the Mexican dollars it can lay its hands upon for the purpose of paying the troops who are now embarking for China.
" French dramatic authors have hitherto complained that the Th6atre Francais expected the most, and paid the least ; a decree, dated Compiegne, accords to authors a larger percentage of the receipts ; and writers will now have the advantage of having their works interpreted by the first actors in France and the world, as well as of receiving a fair remuneration for their labour.
" Gliick's Orphee has been revived with great success at the Theatre Lyrique ; a new drama, by Alexandre Dumas fits, called Le Thre Prodigal?, is to be brought out at the Gymnase on the 5th December. Among the new books of the week are a sketch of the life of Gabriel D'Estree and the policy of Henri IV. by M. Capefigue, and a companion to the notorious L'Amour of M. Michelet under the title of La Femme."
On the question of the Congress the CEsterreichische Zeitung of Friday evening, says : "It is supposed that all the Powers who signed the treaty of 1815 will be represented at the approaching Congress.. The place where the Congress is to be held will probably be Paris. Up to yesterday the invitations to the different Powers to take part in the Con- gress had not been sent out."
Telegraphic information from Bombay to the 12th of November, has come to hand.
" The Waghurs have evacuated Dwarka after several days' bombardment, which reduced the town to ashes. Nana Sahib is reported to be dead, but the fact requires confirmation.
