The Europeans Powers join in censuring the English Government for what they consider the culpable neglect on their part. They assert that the responsibility of taking precautions to prevent the further spread of, the plague rests with England, as she has assumed the exercise of a certain control over the internal affairs of that country.

A report having gained currency that the plague had its origin in India.; from where it was conveyed to Egypt, Earl Granville has officially declared that there is no truth whatever in it.

Full particulars of the bombardment of Tamatare has now been received. It appears that the Havasmadeno attempt.to respond to the French fire, bat retired without disorder; Daring the bombardment no snbjeots of other countries were injured, though some damage was done to English and American property. As ioon as the French obtained possession of the town, Admiral Pierre established a garrison, in which he stationed a force of 500 ;, men. ; . The. , Haras completely; abandoned the town, and retreated into the mountains in the interior, with the evident bbjeet of remaining "Ibftrer until they have received reinforcements. The French residents at Antanarivo hare been expelled from that oity; but ad they hare not reached the coast, it is feared that they bare been murdered by the natives upon the journey. ■■' '■• " ' The Bussian Govertttnent have officially announced that they .will take no action with regard to the hfli|i|itie« now going on between the French and Anamese.
