I learn from a good source that the Finance Mi nister has this day signed a prejet des loi for impos ing a tax of a quarter per cent. upon railway shares and other industrial undertakings. The bill has been laid before the Council of State. The Bourse has been still more heavy than it was Let week. The Rente fell 20c. for cash, and 35c. ke mount, closing at 67fr. 70c. and 67fr. 65c. Mobiber was nearly stationary, and in but little demand. Railways were generally dull, bat there was great inquiry for Southern dross, which rose 10fr. The other lines were for the most part from 2fr. 50e. to Ofr. lower. Nothing is known as to the project of aug menting the capital of the Bank of France, except that the announcement that the measure had been resolved upon was premature. For some time past, certain journals which oc cupy themselves especially with financial and indus trial operations, have published, under the bead of " Answers to Correspondents," a number of recom mendations addressed to persons who had consulted them by letter. These replies, drawn up in enigma tical form, ran something in this way : " M. R., Marseilles : Your idea is good—buy." " M. A. G., Caen: If we were in your place we should hold the and sell the —." "K. P., Louviers : We believe in a rise," &c. These answers will' not longer be permitted except by letter, the journals in question having been interdicted by the Poet-office authorities from publishing such correspondence. The Post-office monopoly, when strictly insisted upon, leads to many inconvenient consequences, both in France and England, bat I doubt whether absurdity, in the way of interference with com munication between man and man, has ever been carried this length before. I have very little sym pathy with the soi-disorat financial journals, but it is impossible not to see that a paragraph in a " notice to correspondents " has no one of the distinguishing characteristics of a letter. The notice is open, not secret ; it is not certain to reach the correspondent at a particular time, even if it ever meets his eye at all, and, moreover, the newspaper which inserts it, would certainly not keep clerks to write.letters to utter strangers, and can only make the insertion because it conceives that its own interests are served by taking public notice of private communications. Another cogent reason why these notices in no way come into' competition with the Post-office is that in many if not most instances they are, in point of fact, nothing but puffs for particular securities, and are addressed to fictitious personages. If there were a duty on advertisements in France, these notices might indeed be a fraud on the revenue, but the Post-office has no rational ground of complaint. The Emperor has just sent 5,000 fr. from his pri vate purse to be distributed among the poor in the department of the Pyrenees. SPAIN. MADRID, JAN. 25. The Queen continues to go on well. The Gazette publishes a decree authorising tho Minister for Foreign Affairs to offer to public competition a con tract for a steam service between Spain and the Antilles. The steamers are to be four in number, of 1,300 tons burden, and 400-horse power. The adjudication takes place on the 14th of February. The Madrid journals of the 21st announce the arrest of General Oribe, but, according to those of the ministerial party, it was for matters totally an connected with politics. Before being taken to the military prison, the general, at his request, was eon reyed to the residence of the Duke of Valencia (Narraez), to request an interview with him; but it is not !toted whether or not the Duke granted it. The Martini* do Target, French ambassador, had given a ball, at which the members of the diploma. tic body and a number of important political per sonages, amongst them Marshals Narraez and O'Donnell, were present. _ _ M. Ors y Garcia, an active member of the Liberal party, had been arrested. The elections for the Cortes would, it was ex pected, take place at the commencement of April, and it was alleged that the Absolutists intended to take part in them. The Belgian Chamber of Representatives has been for several days occupied with the discussion of a bill proposed by the government to change the mode of composing the juries which confer academic de grees. Bo many amendments and sub-amendments were brought forward that the original measure • ' seemed in danger of disappearing altogether. In that situation, M. Henri de Brouckere proposed to continue fur three years longer the present system, which empowers the government to form the juries in question of professors selected from those of the universities of the state and of the free universities, with a president not belonging to the body of pro fesses', and selected by the government. The Mi nister of the Interior opposed the amendment, de claring that the maintenance of the status quo would not allow sufficient moral liberty to the government in presence of the virtual rejection of the bill. M. de Brouckere, however, persisted, declaring, in the name of a portion of the Left, thnt his proposition us a compliment paid to the spirit of justice which animated the government. In the end, the amend ment of M. de Brouckere wu adopted by 01 votes to 38. ITALY. TUSCANY. (vtO • emus. ceausroxnairr.) LEGHORN, JAN. 19. For some days the arrival of the Grand Duke, with the Hereditary Prince and his newly married wife, a Princess of Saxony, and the Archduke Charles, was announced, and on Friday the royal family made its solemn entry into Leghorn. The visit was for the purpose of presenting the heir to the Grand Duchy and his princess to the population of Leghorn. The people were invited to receive their sovereign with due respect, by illuminating their houses during the night, and by hanging out carpets to express their joy at the honour done to them. The town itself had planted posts covered with evergreens on each aide of the road which the royal cavalcade would take on its arrival, and the houses presented a gay appear ance through the surnding of carpets and tapestry from the windows. The enthusiasm, however, was at a low ebb, for not one "bravo" or " viva " was heard from the mouths of the assembled multitude, composed generally of the lowest classes. Great discontent was manifested at the order for illumina tion, for the greater part of the population is far too poor to indulge in such a luxury, even to welcome their sovereign, and the consequence was that the principal streets only , were lighted up, with the consulates and public buildings. On the arrival of the Grand Due at the palace he pre. seated himself on the balcony with his daughter in-law and two sons; but the public was mute, not one cheer of welcome or of gratitude was heard all was cold and chilling, in spite of a bright sun which was shining over the town. The soldiers defiled before the palace, presented arms, and all was over. . . The authorities of the town caused it to be noti fied that, in consequence of the presence of the 'Hirst visitors, they had determined to distribute on this occasion thirty thousand pounds of bread to the poor, and one of the local institutions had offered one thousand shirts. Still no face was lighted up with gratitude for such generous sympathy. The fact is, the poor are neglected and kft to pine in misery and die of exhaustion, and the gift of a loaf of bread one day in the year cannot cure the miseries or warm up the affectious of those sufferers. The archbishop of the place, however, fulfils his mission, and distributes the whole of his ecclesiastical revenue to the poor ; he had even begun to build au asylum for the aged and the sick, but it appears the Austrians took pow erasion of it, and it has remained in the state they left it ever since. It is feared that the necessitous will suffer greatly on the death of this good and venerable ecclesiastic. The Grand Duke and family were present at a ball offered to them at the Casino on Saturday, where all the fashion of Leghorn assembled, and dancing was kept up until a late hour on Sunday morning. The ball was opened by the younger branches of the reigning family and the governor of the place. It may be calculated that there were 1,300 persons present. The toilet of the ladies was of the latest fashion, and crinoline abounded. Seats that were intended to hold ten persons; were fully occupied by three ladies ; and to such a height rose the fear of the fair ones lest their dresses should be disarranged, that one carriage contained but one lady, and she stood up all the time for the purpose of preserving her dress in tact ; the husband was, consequently, obliged to ride with the coachman, or r on foot. The officers of the Tuscan fleet, in their uniforms, mixed with the company—a fleet composed of a small steamer and a few gun-bouts, commanded by an admiral. It is said that the officers are more numerous than the seamen, and amount to fifteen in all ; but yesterday this imposing amid power contrived to fire a salute of 101 guns, after thanksgivings had been offered up in the cathedral for the blessing of the present family continuing to reign over the Tuscans. Yesterday evening the Theatre Sanducato was opened in honour of the Grand Duke, and a com pany of comedians brought to Leghorn to amuse the royal family. All that passed off very well, in the same dull unenthusiastic manner, and to-day his ' highness leaves us for the Island of Elba, the fleet having received orders to be in readiness. It is feared, however, that the admiral and his officers will suffer from sea sickness, it is so seldom they cruise much further than the entrance of the port. Every precaution will nevertheless be taken to ensure the safe arrival of the royal family at Elba.. Thus ' the Wes of Leghorn s*e at an end, and the popula tion have had their fOturn sovereign presented to them. DEATH OF THE PRINCESS DE IIErEY.

(FROY AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT.) CONSTANTINOPLE, J.tx. 12. The mutiny commenced among the pupils of the Military School, to which I alluded in my last letter, was immediately put an end to by the mere appear ance of their director, Ohalib Pacha, on the scene But notwithstanding the punishment inflicted e Professor Major Ome r ; Effendi, and several of the pupils, M. Thouvenel, the French Minister, is not yet satisfied ; and he has recently demanded of the War Pdinistes, with great asperity of tone, that the director, Ghalib Pacha himself, shall be dismissed from his post. It almost looks as if M. Thouvenel had a mind to acquire here such a reputation as was achieved by Prince Nlentehikoff ; and it is easy to see how deficient in tact this young diplo matist must be, since demands of this nature will, of course, not enhance any sympathy he might have gained among the Turks. Mina Busurk Khan, the Persian consul at Erzerouro, has celebrated the capture of Herat with the greatest pomp and display. On the 19th of liecember he gave a grand banquet, to which the Governor of Erzeroum, Vedjihi Pacha, and all the civil and military officers were invited ; on the 20th, the day after, the French and Russian consuls were invited to dinner, at which several European resi dents also sat down. The French consul proposed the health of his Majesty the Shah of Persia, and this toast was drunk with the greatest enthusiasm by all the company. Again, on the 21st, the third day, a splendid banquet was provided by the same host for all the Persian merchants present in the town. During these three days the consul kept open house, and at the end of each repast. as above described, he distributed Persian shawls amongst his guests in commemoration of the event. Mr. Layard, M.P., the president of the Ottoman Bank, has at length obtained the concession from the Porte to construct a railway from Rustchuk to the Gulf of Servs and Enos, for the purpose of con necting the prineipalithe of Roumelia and Bulgaria with the Archipelago, or in other words with the Mediterranean. By this line the difficult navigation of the Danube and the " inhospitable " Euxine may be avoided altogether; and the rich produce of the Danubian regions may be brought into the markets of the west at a great saving of price. Only one third of the shares are allotted to the English capitalists; the remainder being reserved for the French capitalists and for those belonging to this country, to each of which classes a third has also been assigned. General Chesney has signed the contract for the Euphrates Railway with the Sublime Porte, and the general was at the same time assured that the go vernment would concede to him the line as far as Samara. Mr. Wilkins has received the following despatch concerning the establishment of a new bank : " We (the 'sorties concerned) recognise all the conditions that Mr. Wilkins has stipulated with the Sublime Porte." We shall therefore soon cease to be at the mercy of Constantinople money changers and usurers, who have often, in the brief space of twenty four hours, so contrived it as to inflict a loss of ten piastres on the unlucky wight compelled to change his sovereign of sterling gold. War has been raging hem some time between the two journals of this metropolis. Two duels have been fought already between M. Nogues, the editor of the Journal de Constantinople, and M. Balizot, the editor of the Press. cr Orient. Neither of the journals in question is independent, for both these gentlemen receive an allowance from the Turkish government—the editor first named to the tune of thirty thousand, and the editor last named of one hundred thousand piastres. But on Saturday last, M. Balizot, sick of the duelling promos, went to the French consul's and entered his plaint against M. Nogues for defamation. The proceedings were very dull, with the exception of the fact that the defend ant proved the complete dependence of both the journals on the Turkish government ; and accord. ingly the French consul declared that his court was not competent to deal with the matter, but con demned 7;1. Balizot to pay the costs. That gentle man had laid his damages at the trifling sum of 100,000 f. UNITED STATES. As had been expected, Mr. Sumner has been re• elected to tho United States Senate on the part of one branch of the legislature of Massachusetts by a nearly unanimous cote. The other branch will bo sure to concur. _ _ _ The Committee of the Mouse of Representatives on Territories report adversely to the petition of the citizens of Carson Valley, asking for the annexation of that portion of Utah territory to California. Ono of the reasons for refusal is, that California is too large already, and would be made more unwieldy by such an extension to its boundaries. But the com mittee believe that some measure of wider scope is necessary to effect a cure of the evils of u hich the citi zens of Carson Valley complain, namely, Mormon op pression ; and accordingly recommend the passage of the bill now on the calendar for the prevention and punishment of bigamy. This, they add, would • remove the moral and political pcutilence which makes Utah the scandal of the American people." The American continent and the Antilles had been visited by intense cold. Many of the harbours at the North are closed by ice, which also offers serious obstructions to navigation in some of the Southern ports. In all parts of Virginia the people are busy harvesting ice, with the expectation that no supply will be neede d from the North next summer. At Lynchburg, on the 10th inst., the thermometer was down to 11 deg. above zero. At Savannah it has indicated 18 above, and in Florida, 21 above—being the coldest weather ever known in that region. Ice formed two inches in thickness. In Havana a severe frost did considerable injury to crops--a phenome non almost unknown in that latitude. In all the Western rivers, steamers were frozen up. The great lakes were covered with firm ice, extending many miles from shore. In the North-Western States the severity of the weather is almost unprecedented; and men and animals have perished in great num hem Accounts from lowa, written in the first week of January, state that the roads were impassable. Sleds, merchandise, and property were abandoned to the storms. Many men and cattle were frozen to death in the high ways. A party of government surveyors took shelter from a snow storm in a ravine, which seemed the prairie. They pitched their tent upon three feet of snow—rigged a stove whew pipe ran up through tho top of the tent—ate, and went to sleep. A difficulty of breathing aroused the party early, and it was dis covered that the ravine had drifted chock full, and that the snow was three feet above the top of the tent and the top of the pipe. Out of the entire sur veying company of which they were a part, two men froze to death, two waded the prairie snows in their stockings, unable to draw on their stiff boota, and all were disabled, permanently or temporarily, by the freezing of the extremities. The following is a sample of the letters which have been received : . Near l'iliprouriltirer, lowa, Dec. 7. The chief item of interest coanectod with oar present camp is the intense cold. A storm act in on Monday ;on Tuesday blowing and snowing harder and thicker than I ever cap rimed ; on Wednesday it timed still colder; Thursday colder ; until, on Friday, the thermometer read from 9 dec. below zero in the morning to 30 deg. below at 9 o'clock rn the evening. Yesterday evening (Saturday) it read 23 deg. I below, and this evening it reads errs. The elevation is about twelve hunched feet above the see. The mouth of the East River, New York, was blocked up on the morning of Jan. 12 by a field of ice about IJ acres in extent, through which nothing could pass, and the snow was unusually deep, and drifted on the eastern extremity of Long Island, and the trains of the Long Island railroad had discon tinued running beyond Riverhead, the extreme dif ficulty and expense of getting the locomotives through, and the paucity of passengers, being the reasons for this step on the part of the company. The Cincinnati Enquirer states that some of the slaves arc taking advantage of the condition of the river, which is thoroughly frozen over, to make their escape into free territory. Three men and one woman crossed on the night of the Bth. There is great excitement in Vincennes, Missouri, occasioned by a Mrs. Crawford, of Cleveland, Ohio, claiming her . three children placed in the Catholic Orphan Asylum there by her husband. The woman visited the as y lum and requested leave to take away her children; this the nuns refused, when she clutched up one of the children and fled with it in her arms. She was pursued by the nuns and others, and a scuffle ensued in the streets, the mother fight ing desperately for her child, Some of the citizens interfered in behalf of the mother, and she took the child away. The matter is now in court on a writ of habeas corpus. The excitement runs high ; the sympathies of the populace seem to be with the mother, and should the court give the children to the nuns, a serious disturbance seems inevitable. CANADA. The following letter is taken from the eon*. spondenee of the New York Journal of Commerce: . - TORONTO, JAN. 7. The opening of the Orand Trunk Roamed to Montreal han done more to make Canada known, both in the mother country and throughout the North American continent, then any event within the memory of the present generation. That it bee been long and favourably known in the States Ls true. But the same cannot booed m regard to our relations with the mother country. It is only alter the lapse of gene ration., that the existence of this provinco is receiving that attention that it has long since merited. We find Canada spoken of now in England ite "the finest colony under the sun." Its railroad., manufactures, and products are also receiving a ahem of attentive. Howe% er, it mate with Canada whether the shall to known cr not. Under a bored and comprehensive government she will go oft . But if it ever comet her turn to be governed by a sectional policy—by a sectarian crew—who would ignore the existence of half of the provnice—then Canada will aseuredly sink into in*. nfileance. Ac the political pasties of the province are at present constituted,thre is no immediate fear that so unbe arable an event will take place. But it in worthy of note, that thee is an organisation on foot among the chief mon.. hers of the opporittem, comprising hipper Canadian members, the chief object of which is to make Lower Canada of recoadery Importance in the future of the province. Time wetland men would amimilate the institutions of Upper mid Lower Canada against the known wish of Lower Canadians. They demand representation by population, which will at once lace Lower Cuneds in powerless position. They moilf make every French Canadian know that he was of ea inferior race, and that he must submit to the dictation of the race that once conquered him. That in such a ewe the per scented race should he driven into rebellion, is only natural. And who could blame the persecuted Frenchmen, if they... driven from their natural allies—allied themselves to the United States? Such are some of the mensmes that the o¢ position hold. However happily for the country, they mint the minority, and are ale; divided among thennelyea. During the parliamentary 1.11,4011, to commence on the 26th of February, the HU11.011 . 11 Bay question will receive attention. The enneletion of this extensive territory to Canada will be strongly advocated, The history of the Hudson's Bay charter, and its lamed property are already a, familiar as household words. But with the actual state of the territory we are not re well acquainted. Notwithstand ing the astoniahing stories of rich pasturage and luxuriant volleys that me so rife at present, it would not be wise to be lieve all wo hear, as it is admitted on all hands that the ter ritory is very little known, and has !warmly ever been the roughly ruptured.
