The proclamation is a forgery, and if it has reached England from Bombay has probably caused more debate than it is worth. " The condition of Oude has in no respect changed within the fortnight. A correspondent says that all is quiet. We hold the town and the rebels the country, and town and country maintain till the cold weather an armed — truce! The bands which every now and then cross the frontier, and plunder in 'Goruckpore, retreat at the first symptom of attack, and both paities ' ins by common consent, reserve their strength for the final contest. " Some curious facts. have recently been pub lished on the position of the Armenians in Bengal, which I publish because they bear upon the possi-: bility of colonising the plains. The Armenians settled on the first establiShinent of British power three large coloniei at Dacca, - Madras, and Cal cutta. Thrifty, industrious, and keen, they speedily grew rich. On the abolition -of the Company's monopoly they threw their savings into trade; and the present race of old Indians can-remember the time_when if you met an Armenian you presumed him, as a matter of course, to -be rich. For the last 20 years, however, their number, wealth, and im portance have alike declined. Their capital has seriously diminished, their estates are passing to other hands, and they themselves complain of broken constitutions and want of energy. Even their external appearance has changed, and the athletic mountaineers have become a sallow, sickly race of weaklings. The registers show also that the maximum of longevity has declined from 70 years to 50, ihe Beng-alee' average. They .marry in and in too much, never allying themselves - with any but Armenians, and preferring cousins, but the climate has, perhaps, still more to do with the great change. - They do not send their children home as the Europeans do." arrival of the new season's crop is uncertain, the route, it is said, being intercepted by the -rebels. • The export of teas for 1857-58 shows an in crease on that of last year oflo,ooo,ooolbs.

It says— "We have received from a confidential and reliable source the following memoranda of the provisions of the new American treaty, which was signed on the 18th June at Tien-sin by his Excellency Mr. Reed and Kwei-liang and Hwa-shana. :We publish the items of most interest, omitting none of the new provisions. The treaty comprises 29 articles, some of which repeat the stipulations of the old treaty. " Art. 1.

American, or French losses, neither admitted nor denied, but referred to Canton. " Permanent legation of the United States' Minister, after settlement of pending question at Canton, understood to be hereafter at Shanghai." It will be seen that the solution of political and commercial questions which concern the Americans will not be absolutely complete until the English and French treaties are concluded. There is no doubt that more open ports will be conceded to the English and French ; but the Chinese refuse to grant more at present, though admitting that the ports open to one nation will be open to all. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, THE CALCUTTA MARKET. (Prom the Calcutta Englishman of July 17.) The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Nemesis, with the London mail of June 10, arrived here on the 10th inst. The electric telegraph vic2 Bombay has furnished us with the heads of political intelligence from London of the 17th of June, but up to going to press we have not received the commercial intelligence. The produce-market has shown no symptoms of activity, although freights have been considerably lower. The little business that has been done has been chiefly on account of former engagements, and with the exception of oil seeds nothing worthy of note has been done in other articles. The rivers have now opened, and very soon we expect to see larger supplies of produce than heretofore; but it is believed that our dealers have made such large profits for the last two or three years that they will be able to hold out for higher prices than shippers will be inclined to pay. Should such be the case, and we do not doubt of the obstinacy of native merchants, we shall perhaps be un able for some time to come to report any activity in this market. Unfavourable advices from the home markets have up to this had little influence on the native merchants, who are as unwilling to sell their goods at a loss as the Europeans are ready to do so when they see little chance of improvement. Our accounts from the Upper Provinces re port purchases of produce at much higher prices than the present state of the European markets would warrant, A mistaken opinion seems to have gained ground that, because some of the principal marts of produce have been in a dis turbed state, our supplies must consequently fall short of our requirements. To show that such will not be the case we have only to say that other districts which have been in a peace able state have produced, under the influence of the same opinion, much more than the average quantity of former years. Let us take one article alone—saltpetre. At the commencement of the rebellion it was believed that we should have very little of this staple in our market, in con sequence of the unsettled state of Oude, Cawnpore, Fur ruckabad, &c. ; these expectations have, however, proved delusive, and although the quality of the supplies from Chuprah and Tirhoot have not been good we have all along had just as large supplies as ever before. The natives in the Bazaar only require to be induced with high prices to bring forward their goods, locked up for months m their godowns, for sale in the market. Our exports of fine saltpetre have not been as large as in previous years, but they have still been as much as would be required at home. Lately every shipper has confined himself to fine qualities, and they had only to pay a certain price to induce the local refiners to supply their demands. It is impossible to say with certainty what the produce or stock of any ar ticle is, the only exception to this rule being indigo, which can with some probability be guessed at on account of the manufacture being in the hands chiefly of Europeans. We often hear that there is no stock of such and such articles in the market, but immediately a high bid is made we have got any quantity of them. During the fortnight under re view our advices about the next indigo crop have continued unfavourable. Raw silk has been almost a drug. Sugar less dealt in. The demand for saltpetre has been less brisk. Not a single transaction in corahs. Large sales of linseed on contract. Rapeseed in good demand. In rice no busi ness for the home markets. Jute in less demand. Lac dye unsaleable at quotations. Shellac, demand less brisk. Saf flower dull. Money-Market.—We have no alteration to notice in this market. The Bank of Bengal has made no reduction in its rates of discount and interest. In the Bazaar money is still procurable on good securities, at easier rates than those charged by the bank. The want of confidence on the part of capitalists, mentioned in our last, is gradually subsiding. The following is a statement of the assets and liabilities of the Bank of Bengal for the week ending the 14th of July, 1858 : - LIABILITIES. n. A. P.

'When these restric tions are removed, or when the suggestion of transferring all the Indian loans to London is'carried out, 'we have no doubt that .a.very considerable improvenient will be made in these securities.

A large business has been effected in these goods, and for most descriptions of British mannfacturecl:goeils higher ~rates have been paid. Twist also has attained extreme prices. We account for this-ac tivity by tlie-aligence of arrivals and the facility lately ex••• perienced hr despatching goods up the country. Had it not been for these favealrable circumstances we should have been unable to report so favourably. Several parties hitherto unknown in the line hiv' come forward With offers of ton na..e, both by - steanyand covered boats, under proper-super intendencei -to the Upper Provinces. Freights are almost in the state reported by us in our. last. 'Vessels with difficulty find dead weight for London, and some have accepted as low as 10s. for sugar, wki.le other descriptions of cargo 'do not average more than 30s. to 40s. Transactions both for London and Liverpool continue on a very moderate _scale, and as we see little probability of pro :tilted being lower in value - So en; freights must keep as low they are now. A few transactions for America will appear in the following list of charters, but for Bombay there is hardly anything doing, and we do not anticipate any im provement till the next year. ORARTERS. - For Bombay.—The Tartar and William Prouse, the for mer at 13 and the latter at 11 rupees per ton, half dead weight and half light goods ; half the freight payable here and the other moiety payable in Bombay ; gunnies at 14ewt. to the ton or 100 feet measurement.

By the arrival of the Calcutta mail we have re ceived files of papers from Colombo to the 28th of July. The Legislative Council of the island was opened on that day by the Governor, Sir Henry George Ward. We take the following from his Excellency's address : " Gentlemen of the Legislative Council, " I esteem myself most fortunate, at the close of my third year in Ceylon, notwithstanding a financial crisis in Eu rope, and the disturbances that have agitated the neigh bouring continent, in being enabled to submit to you proofs of the growing prosperity of this island, and of the success of those measures which your co-operation has enabled the Govenunent to adopt for its improvement. " The revenue for the year ending Dec. 31, 1858, was £578,028 Os. 21d. The revenue for 1856 was £504,174 18s. 444., so that there was a net increase'of £73,853 7s. 10-Id. in 1857. And this is but one in a series of increase. The re venue of 1856 exceeded by £27,01 9s. sd. the revenue of 1855 ; and that of 1855 by £68,231 18s. 61-d. the revenue of 1854 ; so that in four years the receipts of the colony have risen from £408,041 10s. 41d. in 1854 to £578,028 6s. 21(1. in 1857, with every prospect that they will exceed £620,000 during the current year, and may reach £650,000. The ex penditure has risen during the same period from £393,267 in 1854 to £535,303 in 1857, exclusive of £17,656 12s. 51 . spent under the surplus fund ordinances, which are not in cluded under the returns of ordinary expenditure. This gives £553,459 as the aggregate expenditure of the colony during the past year, of which £161,174 were spent upon works of acknowledged public utility. lam the more par tieultir in dwelling upon this fact because there is, in my judgment, the most intimate connection between the one increase and the other ; and I wish the Council to feel with me that we are laliourin‘g upon a grateful soil—that trade and agriculture respond to every measure favourable to their detelopment, and that when the outlay is well considered the effect upon the revenue is as rapid as it is remarkable. " The electric telegraph is open as far as Kandy, and will reach Mannar by the end of October. The cable which is to connect Ceylon with India, and to make Galle the port of call for vessels engaged in the Indian trade, is already deposited at the Paumben Straits, and ready to be carried across them so soon as 'the weather will permit. The sur vey of Galle harbour is rapidly advancing, and I hope to be able to communicate to you the results in the course of the session. _ _ Vv "The pearl fishery, under the able superintendence of Mr. Vane, has again afforded a most seasonable addition to the ordinary resources of the colony, the receipts being £24,120, after 18 days' fishing, which produced 16,485,254 oysters. " Gentlemen of the Legislative Council, " The facts which it has been my pleasing duty to submit to you must, I think, be accepted as proofs that this colony is in a healthy and thriving condition. For five consecu tive years the revenue has increased. The colony has no debt. It is executing large works out .of its own surplus funds ; and those works, as soon as completed, increase the resources out of which they spring. During the last critical year the public tranquillity has been maintained without even a shadow of an interruption, and that tran quillity is due less to the presence of a superior force than to the general contentedness of the population. All classes are gainers by the changes now in progress. All know that the maintenance of order is the condition of their continuance. "To these happy results yo . u . have yourselves largely contributed by the impartial spirit that has guided you in the distribution of the public resources. If the demands of the European settlers have been liberally met, the irriga tion votes show that native wants have not been neglected. And, having now seen more of this island than any one man in it, and having had large opportunities of studying its natural capabilities and the disposition of its inhabitants, I beg to record my conviction that it is by a steady adhe rence to this policy that the interests of all classes will be most effectually promoted. For not only is there no incom patibility between them, and no lack of means to do justice to both, but in many respects they are completely identified. " The vast properties which British energy and capita l are creating in the interior furnish the readiest market for every article that the industry of the low country can supply. What is wanted is a more intimate knowledge of the field upon which we have to work, improved means of communication, greater familiarity with the wants and pro ducing powers of each separate locality. And in urging upon you, as I have done upon the Queen's Government, the necessity of increased expend ges iture_ in Survey De partment—in roads and brill ~ and irrigation works—l feel that I am but adding fres!' links to that chain which will bind all classes of her Majesty's subjects most firmly to the Crown by the tie s of a common interest rightly under stood." INDIA AND CHINA. By the arrival of the Calcutta mail we (Times) have received our private correspondence and files of papers from Calcutta to the 18th of July, and from Hong Kong to the 6th of July. INDIA. The following is the letter of our Calcutta correspondent : " CALCUTTA, JULY 18. " There is a lull in the campaign which will last, all Europeans regiments hope, till the cold weather. The Commander-in-Chief is actively exerting him self to bring his soldiers under cover, and prohibits all further action, except in Jeypore and Behar. In Jeypore the Gwalior insurgents, after a series of marches to and fro within the State, which it would be difficult to make intelligible without a local map, suddenly invaded Tonk. On the 9th they had seized the town and commenced the siege of Bhoongur, the Rajah's fortress. They had, however, no guns. The Rajah held out gallantly enough, and the approach of Hohnes's brigade, a body of cavalry and horse artil lery, despatched, I think, from Agra, compelled them to raise the siege. They fled southward, and invested Rampore, a town belonging to Tonk, and which contains 12 guns and some military stores. These they hope to obtain, but Holmes's brigade, at the latest date to which we have intelligence (July 11) was only 15 miles behind, and these flying corps never stop to think about odds. Colonel Napier, at Gowra, attacked 11,000 men with 600 horse, and had their number been quadrupled would have attacked them all the same. A few of the Tonk soldiery have joined the losing side, but unless the garrison of Rampore are traitors, the rebels must fly again. Their course is expected to be southward, as they do not know that Mhow now contains three European and four or five Bombay regiments. They may en passant defend Kotah ; but, whatever they do, their career must be but short. They are fairly surrounded by British troops, and have neither leaders, guns, nor ammu nition. Unless joined by some local potentate, they can obtain none, and I would not waste so many words on them but for the uneasy feeling, obvi ously shared by Government, that a momentary success might bring them formidable allies. Cen tral India is a magazine, and nobody can watch the smallest spark in the air without speculating on a possible explosion. If it were ever safe to predict in this campaign, I should say next mail would carry you intelligence of their final dispersion. " In Behar matters are still in a most unsatisfac tory position. As I mentioned to you, after the withdrawal of the Europeans to Benares and Dina pore, Umur Singh returned to the Jugdespore jungle, where his followers began to concentrate. In a week or two he had 3,000 men, and began col lecting revenue. Notwithstanding: a check received from Captain Rattray, who at Kusina cut up a band of 400, headed by one of the inferior leaders, Umur Singh kept his position, and detachments from his force entered Chupra, plundered some vil lages in Tirhoot, and threatened Patna. Their ob ject was chiefly plunder, and after burning a few factories, i part went northward to the great ren dezvous n Oude, and part fell back into Shahabad. They confine themselves generally to the jungle, sallying out every now and then to plunder a vil lage, murder the native servants of Government, and collect the revenue, The command of the dis triet has been given to Brigadier Douglas, now at Benares, whose object is apparently to circumscribe the war and render the cold weather campaign final, lie is establishing a chain of posts round the jungle to cut off all escape. The affair, I must re peat, though troublesome, is of little political mo ment. Umur Singh, beaten or victorious, can effect nothing, but his impunity costs us the revenue of one entire country alarm, distress, and discontent in three more. ere has been, of course, a good deal of exaggeration current as to our actual losses. For instance, the collector of Behar reported that Gya, the country town, had been entered by insur gents, the gaollbroken open, and all the prisoners released. It seems, nevertheless, very doubtful if any enemy has ever been within ten miles of Gya, arid whether the whole story was not invented by the gaol guard, who had themselves releasoft the prisoners. You may imagine from this incident how difficult it is even for the well-informed to discover the truth; " This difficulty is not lesscilEtl by an occasional forgery. The Bombay Gazette recently published a proclamation said to have been issued by the Go vernor-General in Oude. The style was perfect, and the tenour, containing, as it did, a guaran tee of their estates to the Oude landholders, seemed in exact accordance with the speeches of the Tory Ministers. As the Bombay Gazette is believed to have official intelligence, the proclama tion was accepted, and has, of course, been sent to England. It is now officially declared by the Pre sident in Council to be a pure invention without any foundation whatever.' It is not easy to com prehend what motive anybody could have had for so discreditable a forgery, still less how he should *re knoivn pa accurately, 45 am told he M114114'0 CHINA. The following is the letter of our Chinese corre spondent, dated Hong Kong, July 6 : :— " The Russian and United States' Ministers have concluded treaties with, the Chinese, and the bearer of the Russian treaty is a passenger by the present steamer. We cannot state positively what conces sions have been obtained from the Chinese by these treaties, but it is probable a good deal is left to de pend upon the treaties to be obtained by the allies, the Russians and Americans stipulating for the same privileges as granted to other nations. " It is mentioned that the Americans stipulated for the opening of the new ports of Swartow and Taiwan, m Formosa. As regards the question of compensation for property destroyed at Canton, we do not hear that anything was arranged. " Negotiations by the .allied Ambassadors are said to be progressing, and it was expected that treaties would be signed about the 22d ult. If this desired result had been obtained at the time men tioned we ought to have had a steamer direct from the Peiho with the intelligence. It is reported that all the demands of the allies have been acceded to, and that the conditions 'of the treaties will confer extended privileges upon foreigners, and include a guarantee for indemnification for property destroyed at Canton. " Letters from Tien-sin dwell upon the sufferings of the people from the great scarcity of grain, and mention that there was a report of an outbreak at the capital owing to the dearness of food. "By next opportunity we hope to be able to confirm that the negotiations have been brought to a favourable- conclusion, and that the Imperial Go vernment sanctions the withdrawal of the barriers that have so long interfered with the western na tions in their intercourse with the Chinese. " The manifesto of Hwang, the new Viceroy of Canton, &c., referred to in my last, is printed in the local papers, and proves to be most hostile to foreigners. A circular issued by her Britannic Majesty's Consul, under date Ist inst., explains the position the allies are now in with regard to the Provincial Government. " The following is a copy of the circular : " The senior naval officer has been good enough to com municate to the undersicmod the substance of a communi cation received from the Imperial Commissioner Hwangthis morning, in which, so far from from disapproving the proceed ings of the Braves, he declines to interfere to repress them and urges the evacuation, of the city. He affects through out entire ignorance of the existence of negotiations to the northward; and its general 'tone gives no room to ex pect anything - but the most determined hostility. The community are probably as well informed as the under. signed of daily rumours and occurrences, and as competent to judge of the probabilities of a general attack on the city. Keeping this in view, the undersigned advises no longer to delay any necessary preparations fora sudden depatture . which may be required, it being evident that the allied forces in the occupation of the city and river cannot well be considered otherwise than in a state of war with the Provincial Government. " C. A. WINCHESTER, Her Majesty's Acting-Consul. " ' British Consulate, Canton, July I.' " A blockade of the river at Canton, applicable only to Chinese boats, has been established, and trade must be considered suspended. All the native merchants have left, and the greater portion of the foreign community. It is impossible to con jecture how long the present state of things will continue, and we expect some severe lessons must still be inflicted before the war party around Can ton submit peaceably to the presence of foreigner's. " We regret to report an unfortunate occurrence which took place a few days back. Capt. Jenkins, of H.M.S. Actaeon, with a party of five or six sailors, was reconnoitring a village near Whampoa, when he was fired on from an ambuscade. All the party were wounded—Capt. Jenkins severely. We hear he is progressing favourably. " The latest accounts from Canton mention that a French man-of-War had shelled Shamun, part of the western suburbs of Canton, as a Frenchman had been killed in that neighbourhood. " Since our last severel atrocities have been com mitted by the Chinese against foreigners. " Pekin Gazettes come down to the 29th of May.

The Austrian frigate Novara arrived on the sth inst., from Manilla. , 4 From Canton there are no transactions in im ports reported, and the purchases of tea have been I n significant. Some of the new season's tea that had arrived at Fatshan has been removed into the country, and orders given countermanding any further quantity . being brought down at present. Transactions in imports in this market have been trifling. We quote cotton, Bombay, 13.50 dots. to 15.30 dols. ; Bengal, 12.50 dols. to 14.60 dols.

Booker, had returned from a trip to Formosa. The sulphur mines had been visited, but no trace of Europeans being on the island discovered, and what was learned led to the conviction that there were none there. " Foochow advices are to the 28th ult. The price of tea had declined from the opening rates, owing to the more favourable aspect in political events, and the report of the price of common congou in the home market • having declined to 10d. to 101 d. At the last purchases had ceased. The preparation of the finest Kisow is said to have been interfered with by the presence of the rebels in the producing district, and this description will be short. Teas of the first crop that have reached the market show signs of hasty manipulation, but it was expected that this fault would not characterise the second crop of teas, regarding which report speaks favour ably. Contract teas of the new crop are said to have cost t 5.26 to ts.2B. Settlements for the month comprise 8,800 chests, and 2,500 half-chests of con gou ranging from ts.l6 to ts. 23.

By the Royal mail steamship Orinoco, arrived at Southampton, we have files of the Panama Star and Herald to the 7th of August. The steamship Bogota, Captain Henry. Wild, arrived at Panama early on the morning of the 6th, with dates from Valparaiso to July 16; Callao, 27; Payta, 30; and Guayaquil, Aug. 1. From Chili the reports were more favourable and prospects more flattering than durinu the pre vious fortnight. The news from the provinces pro mises a favourable year for crops of all kinds. The political agitation continued in Congress, but the session was assuming a more'peaceful as pect. . Among the projects newly submitted to Con gress the most important was the establishment of towing . steamers through the Straits of Magellan, which is of great interest to the navigation and commerce of the whole world. It would shorten the voyage from Chili upwards of 1,500 miles to the Old World and North America. . . The Government intended promoting emigration from the north of Europe towards the Straits of Magellan, and preparatory works had already been commenced for that purpose. The main object of the Government, by inducing this emigration, ap pond to be a dCNIXO to wiper and drive away hope an influx of civilised emigi means of doing. ke • The foreign.dcbt of Chili at the dpnd.of about 6,014,000 dols.; and the honieV6ol4 • dols. The Mercurio, in its market report, says:--• We- repot to ' say that-as yet there is no appearance of any improvement in the state of the markets, nor can we hold out hopes'for the future. - The great scarcity of credit, arising from the innumerable bankruptcies taking pinee since the beginiaing - of last year, and which unfortunately still continues, although not so frequently, it is tree, yes the monetary spareity which still prevails, owing to causes noted in former reviews—as, for instance, the great quan titieS of money sent out of the , country , to -meet the imporsi 7 r. in default of articles of export,. besides the great scarcity of -agricultural produce and cattle, from the bad state of the roads - in the interior, on account of .the littedieavy rains, which have lasted since about the commencement of May • —these, we say, are the principal reasons for our present commercial inactivity." • The only news of consequence from Peru, given in letters froth Callao and' Payta,' is the excitement of the pending elections, - Secret societies have been formed all over the country, which have been act ing in unity, and at, the eleventh hour they had proclaimed as their candidates General Medina for President, and Don Gregorio Paz Soldan as Vice- President, both popular and powerful men com pared with General Castilla and Senor Lamar. The general impression appeared to be that Castilla . would be re-elected. From the Republic of Bolivia the news is satis factory. The . " Linares Administration continued - their laborious task of reorganising every branch of public service. All rumours respecting Belzu's return had ceased, and no fears were entertained respecting the present Government's stability. The dictatorial decree of March 31 had been unanimously confirmed by all the Provinces. His Excellency Senor Linares had received the most cordial felici tation addressed to him by General Santa Cruz, at present residing in San Jose, in the Argentine Confederation. He had also received. the auto- 1-graph letter from - his HolinesssPius - IX., in which ••• the Pope authorises- a delegate of the Holy See in the person of Senor Marinus Morini, Arch- • bishop of Palrayro (la partibus), resident in Palma. He had also received a satisfactory answer to his autograph letter to Queen Victoria. On the Bth of September the municipal bodie's will be solemnly installed throughout the Republic. General Perez, Minister of War, had resigned, and General Ballivan was appointed to succeed him. There were no foreign vessels of war at Valpa raiso on the 16th of July.

At Guayaquil 31st of July, the French frigate Constitution. In the port of Panama, 6th of August, the British sloop of war Alert. No vessels of war in Aspinwall on the Bth of August. During the fortnight was experienced the heaviest rains felt this season, which rendered the nights un usually chilly. With the exception of a few cases of intermittent fever, occasioned by the change of atmosphere, the Isthmus remained as healthy as usual. CENTRAL AMERICA. The mail steamer Columbus, Captain Ludwig, arrived at Panama on the night of the Gth of August from Central American ports. Her dates were, from Guatemala, July 28 ; San Salvador, 31 ; Nicaragua, A ugust 1 ; and Costa Rica, 3. Colonel Knorth, of the Guatemala service, who gave the order for the execution of Cris Lilly, had been sentenced to five years' imprisonment for having about the same time given orders to shoot Don Juan Santi Antonio, commander of the Guate mala schooner Ascension. The cholera was reported to have disappeared from Guatemala. The new United States' Minister to Guatemala, the Hon. Beverly C. Clarke, had been received on friendly terms by the President of Guatemala. Several shocks of earthquake had been expe rienced in the State during the month of July. The Republic appeared to be enjoying tranquillity. Salvador and Nicaragua papers contain nothing of consequence, the latter being principally taken up with reports of a fresh invasion of the territory by Walker. The President of San Salvador had issued a decree removing the seat of Government from Cojutepeque to the old city of San Salvador, until such time as the new city can be sufficiently repaired, from the effects of the earthquake in 1834, to receive it. Business in Costa Rica was reported as very dull at present. FRANCE. PARIS, WEDNESDAY. The Emperor, the Empress, and the Prince Imperial left St. Cloud this morning at a little after six for Biarritz. Their Majesties, who travel incognito, entered a carriage at the gate of the park, and proceeded by the railway round Paris to join the Orleans line at Ivry. The intention of the august travellers is, should the young Prince not be too fatigued, to proceed on without any break in their journey, and to arrive at Biarritz at about ten o'clock at night.

A Berlin letter, in the Cologne Gazette, states that the resistance of Hanover, Mecklen burg, and Denmark to the reduction of the dues on the Elbe produces great iritation in commercial circles in Prussia, and that it is in contemplation to address petitions to the Prussian Chambers to make the affair a European question, in invoking the formal act of the treaty of Vienna. " In the discussions which have taken place on this subject," says the letter, " Hamburg has proved that considerable expense has been entailed on it by works for improving the navigation, whilst Hanover, to whom the dues bring in upwards of 300,000 thalers a-year, has not a single dredging machine on the river." HOLLAND. The session of the States General of Holland has just been brought to a close by the following speech from M. Root, Minister of Justice : "Gentlemen,—His Majesty has charged me to close your Assembly. Many laws have been passed with your co-operation during the session. In addition to the budget of expenses and the means of providing for them, resolutions have been adopted for paying off the national debt, for the continua tion and completion of works of public utility, and for the settlement of other interests. If certain bills, which have been presented to you, remain unvoted, the time employed in examining them has not been lost. The accession of a new Ministry during your session has somewhat impeded the progress of your labours. The Government was desirous of seeing several important questions set tled during this session, but time has been wanting. In the name of the King, I now declare the session of the States to be closed." The Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian arrived on the 27th ult., from Milan, at Venice, where he im mediately embarked for Trieste. His Imperial Highness sent 5,000 f. to the Governor of Venice for the poor, on the occasion of the birth of the Prince Imperial of Austria.
