Britain and Europe discuss non intervention amid Italian affairs
London notes the aim of Lord Cowley’s mission to test British cabinet views on a European coalitions note. Amid speculation of Austria inviting Russia and Prussia to defend monarchs, press reports in Paris spoke of possible peace with England over reciprocal trade, while China’s expedition leader Manhau sails overland. A submarine cable between the Channel and France succeeds, and local gossip ties to a ship seized for slave trade financing.
