A FOREICt7j NOTES, !B COMRENCE. According to Paris annasincements the rumoured desire of the Porte to postpone the meeting of the Conference will not result in any delay. The Ambassadors at Parit will meet on Saturday. It appears that the Turkish repro • sentative cannot receive his written instructions by alai time, but this, say the Par:a journais. will not be deegned a sufficient reason for postponement. It has been arranged that inspiration by telegraph shall suffice. The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Standard says that the relations between Russia and Prussia are of the most intimate kind. During the last few days a ♦isit of Count Bismarck to Russia, in order to have a personal in. terview with Prince Gortscbakoff, was seriously considered. Matters had proceeded so far that an hotel had been pre. pared for the Prussian Minister. Second thoughts have, however, prevailed, and the fear of exciting suspicion has caused the visit to be deferred.

Further details prove that the insurrection at Malaga, though remarkable for the determination and bravery with which it was supported, was utterly deficient in plan, said seems to have been raised without any clear purpose. The announcement that th, regular troops were coming tc disarm the militia caused great commotion amongst the people. A revolutionary junta was appointed, barricaded reared, and the freedom of the city proclaimed. But the ma. jority of the volunteers were by no means enthusiastic in their resistance, an 1 it is likely that all would have submitted but for a treacherous report that the regular troops would join the movement, and upon this the barricades were maned : , and the fight began. It was very unequal. General Caballero de Rodas bad previously occupied all the commanding positions in the town, and the conflict was confined to the narrow streets in the centre. It lasted the greater part of Thursdal and the whole of New Year's Day. Saturday morning warned the insurgents that they had nothing more tc hope, and the fight was not renewed. A great num. ber of prisoners, variously estimated, remain in the han& of the General. It is expected that they will be shipped off to some penal colony. The strangest feature of these risings is the isolation of the insurgents, the indifference with which the people of Malaga looked on at the attempt at Cadiz, and waited until the doom of their neighbours was sealed before they rose in the same cause. f a commercial e current of its i and irregular. legislation must st be retired, or e to be lawful to be made with Three Courses of Lectures on Common and Mercantile Law, Conveyancing, and the Law of Real Property and Equity, will be delivered in the Hail of the Society in the months of January, February, March, April, May, and June next.

The Times correspondent fears that the appeal by tne Bishop of Cadiz on behalf of the men implicated in the late insurrection will not be sncoessful. Prim and Serrano are very rigid in matters of this kind. To shed the blood of soldiers who merely obeyed their chiefs, and who were engaged in putting down rebellion, must be deemed a crime of the deepest dye, Prim, in particular, is very stern. The writer once saw a poor peasant brought out and shot at Gerona by Prim's order for having been found with a scrap of paper concealed in his cravat addressed to the chief of a band of military insurgents, who but a few months before had been the General's own associate in a similar rising. Certainly, if any appeal can move the Provisional Government, the Bishop's letter will effect that object. It is a touching and eloquent exhortation to mercy.

It has come to the writer's knowledge that a telegram was received by the Italian Government with the view of ascertaining whether, if Spain had need of such a prince, it would require a vote of the Chambers to confirm his acceptance. There is one great difficulty in the way of selecting the Duke of Aosta. His brother, the heir to the Italian throne, is a delicate young man, "who does not take great care of himself," and it is extremely Probable that he may have Ito sons. Lecture VII. Copyholds.-1.

NOTICE is Hereby Given, that an examination of Candidates for 23 appointments as Assistant-Surgeons in her Majesty's Indian Medical Service will be held at Chelsea Hospital on the Bth February, 1869. Copies of the regulations for the examination of Candi dates, together with information regarding the pay and retiring allowances of Indian Medical Of f icers, may be ob tained on applicati n at the Military Department, India Office, Westminster, S.W. T. T. PEARS, _l4Aor-General, §o of AUSTRIA. The Independanee beige affirms that the war party 1. very powerful at Vienna, but very weak in Hungary. Count Andrassy, chief of the Hungarian Cabinet, is deci. sively against war, and in this policy he is supported by the great majority of the people. His inflexible attitude has bad the effect of frustrating the scheme of Count Beust, who was favourable to joint action with France. The Chancellor was obliged recently to telegraph to Paris that the pacific policy of the Hungarian Ministry ren. dered impossible any active interference in the Eastern uestion. 'ITALY. Ile tax upon the corn brought to the flour-mills for grinding is one of several expedients by which it was hoped to clear off the deficit and raise the Italian revenue to an equality with the expenditure. Several new taxes were voted last spring with the view of increasing the revenue in ISO 9 by about four millions and a half sterling, and the expenditure was cut down to the extent of £BOO,OOO. These sums, added to £2,800,000 raised by the sale of the Church property, will suffice to bring Italian finances into something like order. And in the case of most of the new taxes—stamps and registration dues, and a percentage upon charges for admission at the theatres—no difficulty has been experienced, but the detested grinding tax has given rise to serious opposition. It imposes a duty of about ls. Sd. upon every 2201 b. of wheat, and half that amount on all other kinds of grain. The bread of an average poor family is thus taxed to the extent of about thirteen shil. lings yearly, and in a country where incomes are very small, and destitution, especially in the Island of Sardinia, very common, thisburden is byno means light. Itis not surpris ing that in some places the mills have been closed, or that .n other districts open resistance has been shewn. Nothing but the greatest necessity could justify such an impost. It is fair to add that the necessity is very great, and the Government strives to make the tax fall as lightly as posh Bible ; but it is a detestable measure at the best. AMERICA. The trial of Snrratt haz ended in his dismissai under the Amnesty Proclamation, thus finally terminating the procedings in connection with the murder of President Lincoln. The public debt of the 'United Staten has increased during the past month by 1,700,000 dollars. PARAGUAY. Previously to the departure of the Europeans from Paraguay on board the Beacon, Lopez received Captain Parsons, the commander of the vessel, and informed him that all Englishmen who were anxious to leave Paraguay were at liberty to do so. The chief engineer in the service of the Paraguayan Government sent off his wife, but de clined to leave the country himself, as did all the rest. The English engineers receive high wages, paid punctually at the end of each month, and most of them have saved money. Captain Parsons was much impressed with the military and administrative abilities of Marshal Lopez. ROYAL NATIONAL LIFEBOAT INSTI- TUTION.

The lifeboat which the institution had sent to Kimmeridge, Dorset, last month, had been taken out on trial, and had given much satisfaction to the crew. It was reported that the members of the Coal Exchange were raising a subscription for a lifeboat to be presented to tin p9ciety. THE WELLINGTON, 54, St. James's-street, S.W.
