Europe.

cede to Russia, nor to exchange with her, nor to allow her to
occupy, any portion of the territories belonging to the crown
of Sweden and Norway.
His Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway engages him-
self, moreover, not to cede to Russia any right of pasturage or
fishing ground, or of any other nature whatsoever, as well for
the said territories as for the coast of Sweden and Norway,
and to reject any claim (praention) Russia might raise to
establish the existence of any of the above-named rights.
Art. 2. In case Russia should make any proposition to his
Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway, or any demand
with a view to obtain either the cession or exchange of any
portion whatever of territory belonging to the crowns of
Sweden and Norway, be it the permission to occupy certain
points of the said territory, or the cession of fishing or pastur-
age rights, or of any other, on those same territories, or on
the coast of Sweden and Norway, his Majesty the King of
Sweden and Norway engages himself to communicate imme-
diately such proposition to his Majesty the Emperor of the
French, and to her Majesty the Queen of England ' • and their
said Majesties take on their part the engagement to provide
his Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway With sufficient
naval and military forces to co-operate with the naval and
military forces of his said Majesty, with a view to resist the
claima or aggressions of Russia.
The nature, the importance, and the destination of the
forces in question shall, the case occurring, be decided by a
common agreement between the three powers.

AT a recent meeting of the tenantry of Mr. George Lane
Fox, of Bramham-park, Yorkshire, it was unanimously
resolved to offer that gentleman an increase of 10 per cent. on
the rents of his tenants, in consideration of the reduction of
10 per cent. they received from him during the last period of
agricultural depression. Mr. Fox, in a letter, has declined to
take advantage of his tenants' liberality, urging them to
improve their farms. As a mark of their gratitude, the
tenants have determined to have their landlord's portrait
painted, with the intention of presenting it to Mrs. Fox.

COTTON.—The market during the week has been
-comparatively quiet, as late advices reported heavy
-receipts, rising rivers, and prices tending downwards,
ion-the other side the Atlantic. The prospects of the
crop. are also more favourable than were at ono time
-anticipated ; for, although estimates vary, it appears
'-to'be generally admitted that the yield will be a very
,;large one. With reference to the stock on hand in
Ibis port, an opinion appears to prevail that it is
• actually larger than shown by the tables ; but as the
•amount will be declared in a few days the question will
*loon lmeet at rest. Holders have freely offered their
stocks, but purchases have been chiefly confined to
immediate wants, and prices are unchanged. The sales
for the week, -up to Friday, amounted to 36,130 bales,
of which 2;660 were taken on speculation and 2,420
for txport,leavinm 31,050 for the trade. On Saturday

The Life Office, Established in 1836 by members of the

of the premium to the risk incurred, and a careful investment
of the Funds, have enabled the Directors to make additions to
Policies which have equalled One-half of the Premiums received.
Assurances effected prior to Ist January, 1856, on the partici-
