MOVEMENTS OF THE WAR.

(Trom the "News of the World," May JO.) In the absenro of any particular tidings from tie Crimea, it may be as well, perhaps, that we ihota! glance for a moment at certain hosti. ! e demonstration which it is now pretty confidently rumoured the Ailia have it in contemplation to make upon other porjou of the Russian Empire, When, ipoa the of M. Drouyu d' l.huys from the foreign depaKnest of the French Ministry, M. Walewski was appelated to succeed him, and M Persigny was nominated to the embassy in London, there was seen in that cbagj the significant indication of an intention on tie part of the Emperor of the Trench to give a new impalie to the pros.cution of the war, and net itnprob&bij to open a fresh scene of hostilities. The strong opirucu known to be personally entertained by M. Penignya favour of the'restitution of the Kingdom of Pobad, could not fail to convey to the mind Qfrnanj obsetru: politicians the impression that when that minima was especially selected to become the representstire o France to the British Court, there was a detgnK at least a disposition, on the part of the Emperor to adopt the same view. This impression was sskfc quently strengthened by the favourable reception accorded by Louis Napoleon to Prince Czirtorjfii and a deputation of Poles who wsited upon him ■ Paris, with a congratulatory address upon his rrftt! escape from the attempt of the assassin Pianori. W worus actually employed by the Emperor upon m occasion have not been pubiicly recorded, but tbe Para press is unmanimous in ascribing to tbem an imps? which conveyed to the Polish Prince and ha conpanions " the" liveliest feelings of satisfactfon." - !li not difficult to guess what the nature of the fajWg r. ust have been which could kindle such feelings mtM bosoms of those poor exiles. Whether it be possi&A after all that has occurred during the last twenty vein, to restore the Kingdom of Poland to it* original a» rit v and independence, is a point upon which the pox;cia'ns of Europe are greatly divided in opinion. «*• whichat thisinstant it is not necessary forus •■*** Theq uestion for the consideration of the WW" Powersis simply this- wehther being atwar witbfl l * sia, and at the same time upon terms ol doubtful m wi'h Austria and Prussia thete is not something iowpeculiar ceudision and geographical position ofWW which lenders that country the best slrat ? upon which Russia can be assailed, and whtcn t« dilating German Powers now hold in '"J 1 " . can hardly be two opinions upon that point. surprising, therefore, that the general ■'Jfgjftt a movement in that direction on the part of the ■ JJ should laterly have acquired much etre- gtn- • French (\mttitutionnel has, indeed, within the at «- days, spoken of some such movement almost u *■ tainty.
