NAPLES.
The mission at Naples, vacant by Sir Win. Temple's death, will (says the Daily News) be reserved for Sir Henry Bulwer, after he shall have returned from his present temporary employment in the Principalities. It is believed (says a despatch from Paris) that the French Government has sent orders to Baron Brenier, its minister at Naples, to take leave of absence. The English Government has no present intention of appointing z.n ambassador in succession to Sir Win. Temple. The Western Powers will thus have ceased diplomatic relations with Naples to a certain extent, in the hope that such a joint demonstration will have its effect. The ladependunce reports the tenor of the
second Anglo-French note presented to the King of Naples. The note, it is said, " insists " on an amnesty, and specially mentions the case of Pocrio. If the King should persist in his policy, an Anglo-French squadron will appear iv the Bay of Naples to protect English and French property in the event of a revolution. The King of Naples, it is said, is " disposed " to yield to these representations. Other reports represent him as preparing defences on his coasts, and refusing to j'ielcl. The Cologne Gazette states that the new collective note which the Western Powers intend sending to the King of Naples, and which it is even said has already been forwarded, dwells on the necessity of carrying out the following four points: — 1. Suppression of the arbitrary authority of the police and of punishment arbitrarily inflicted by that body. 2. An amelioration in the political administration, and a modification in the exercise of justice in what relates to judicial proceedings previously to trial. 3. The creation of credit establishments, so as to give an impetus to commerce aud manufacturers. 4. Permission to all emigrants and exiles to return to their country, and their restoration to their civil rights and former position, provided they sign an act of submission.
M. de Hubner, the Austrian minister at Paris, has arrived at Naples to, as is believed, represent to the King the folly of his conduct. His Majesty had concentrated a large body of troops in the vicinity of Naples.
Marshal Pelissier, it is said, was treated in almo3t an insulting way by the authorities of Palermo, when returning home from the Crimea.
