OOMMERCIAL TREATY WITH BELGIUM.

Mr. W. FORSTER asked the Under Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs if he could inform the house whether the
government had snoceeiled in negotiating a commercial treaty
with Belgium, and, if so, on what terms ; also, whether any
step had been taken towards negotiating • oommercial
treaty with Italy.
Mr. LAYARD replied that a commercial treaty wee
signed yesterday between this country and Belgium. (Hawr,
bear.) It had not yet been ratified, and therefore he was
unable to lay it upon the table of the hones. With respect
to the second question, he expected shortly to enter into
negotiations with Turin.

Cnyerst. PALACE—A concert of Welah national
music was given recently at St. James's-hall with so much
success that a repetition of it in the large Concert-room of
the Crystal Palace is announced to take place to-morrow.
One great feature in this performance is that the llCCOM-
psalmists are played by a hied of twenty harps, on which
the priodpil players in this country perform, directed by
Mr. John Thomas. Miss Edith Wynne (Ens Cymru) and
Miss Lescelles will sing the solos. The choir has been se-

PARIS, FamAT Bynum:

- -
The Pattie asserts that a cabinet council is to 1.
held in London to-morrow to consider whether
the English forces shall finally be withdrawn from
Mexico, or whether the common action should be
continued. It also says that the Spanish ministry
is deliberating on the same subject this very day.
A Spanish war frigate has received orders to be
ready to sail for Vera Cruz in three days from this
time ou a special mission.
With reference to the origin of the Mexican ex-
pedition, and the part taken in it by General Al.
moute, there is some very specific information in
the last files of the New York Times (under date,
I think, April 25, or at least thereabouts), which
ought to, and doubtless will be, under the con-
sideration of the English ministers during their de-
liberations. The non-official journals here continue
to say, with very remarkable pertinacity, that the
object of the war in Mexico is to them a mystery.
Blast's Corivspondescs says that the Abbd
Bonaparte, who has jnet arrived in Paris, has a
mission from the Pope to thank the Empress for
a great many sympathetic messages, to reinsure the
French government most completely as to the
object of the assemblage of bishops at Rome, and
lastly, to offer to the Emperor explanations which
will exculpate his Holiness front the charge of in-
gratitude which has been preferred against him.
The choioe of the Emperor's relative for such a
mission is put forward as evidence of the Pope's
conciliatory intentions.
The Bourse was dull in the early part of the
day, but became more active afterwards, and the
Rents rose 15c. both for cash and account, closing
at 70fr. 65c. and 70fr. 75c. ; Mobilier rose 3fr. 750.,
and the Italian Loan, 20c. In railways there was
very little change ; Northern and Lyons were
2fr. 50c. lower. Utilise Mires experienced
the further fall of 10fr., closing at llbfr. You
will have perceived from the Moniteur
that the government sets its face against
Mires' new and extraordinary financial opera-
tion, and has arbitrarily prohibited the jour-
nals from inserting his prospectus, either as an
advertisement or otherwise. I understand that his
scheme was to set up a kind of Credit 3fobilier
Society in Constantinople, but that be had no posi-
tive authority from the Turkish government, which,
howernr, promised by telegraph a favourable
consideration (small blame to them), if he first
raised the capital. It appears, from a letter written
bj Mires to the evening pacees,that, in ooasequence
of his wild prospectus, the Bank of France bee
withdrawn its permission to him to opeh an account
in its books.

DIPLOALDLE SUICIDE OP A LADY.

INQUEST—(THIB DAY.)
This morning an inquiry was held by Mr. John
Humphreys, the Middlesex coroner, at the Royal Driver
Tavern, Bow-road, touching the death of Abs. Elizabeth
Bernie, acted 61, the wife of a wine merchant, molding at
No. 2, Avenue-road, Bow, who committed suicide last
Tuesday morning, under peculiarl afflicting circumstance&
Mr. J. W. Barrie, the husband' of the deceased, said that
lon the morning in question he left home as usual at 9
o'clock, and his wife was then in her usual state. By the
merest chance he returned at 12 o'clock, and wee informed
by his daughter that deceased had locked her room
on the 'aside, and oould not be got to answer
when called. He forced an entrance, and was
horrified to see her suspended by a coed to the
tester of the bedstead. He instantly cut her down, but life
appeared to have been extinct a considerable time. He was
totally unprepared for rush a calamity, for she bad never
given the slightest indication of an intention to destroy her-
self, sad her health had latterly been much better than
usual. She had, however, suffered much grief and
anxiety on account of her daughter, whose mind had
given way from ill health, and whom it WU found none-
nu7 to place under restraint. Deceased felt that cimum-
stance so acutely, that she no doubt lost her own reason,
and under a sudden impulse put an end to her existence.
Dr. D'Ober said that be was called in to deceased, and
found her quite cold and rigid, and she must therefore have
destroyed herself immediately after her husband left the
house in the morning.
The Coroner having summed up, the jury returned a ver-
dict of "Suicide while In a slate of unsound mind."

but the distinguished rank of many of the visitors
The numbers up to 5 o'clock were, season tickets,
5,695 ; on payment (5e.), 3,687 ; total, 9,381 The
Duke of Cambridge was an early visitor, and
there were also present in the course of the
day the Duke and Duchess d'Aumale, Lord
Everaley, Earl of Bessborough and two ladies,
Marquis and Marchioness of Clanricarde, Count
and Countess Waldenstein, Marchioness of Ely,
Lady De Broke, Count de Salim, Lady Fellows, I

and Mr. Robert Lowe, M.P., giving the cane of
Armstrong bullets a most careful examination,
and listening with great attention to Sir William
himself, who lucidly explained all the details of his
great invention. Another distinguished visitor
was Si Hassan Gelid, a native member of the
Council of Algeria, and, as we understood, a man
of high distinction in his own country. Me was
dressed in the full Arab costume, and was on his
first aPPeausttps in the nave guessed to be Abdel
Kader himself, so much did he resemble the pic-
tures of the distinguished exile. He was at-
tended by an officer of Turooe, and was escorted
round the Exhibition by M. Talton, the oom-
misaioner foe the Algerian section of the French
department. He speaks French to perfection, and
expressed a good deal of grave satisfaction at
everything he saw, and finished his tour in the
French court, when the exhibitors all crowded
round to pay their respects.

FISHING BOATS-CONVENTION OF 1843 WITH
FRANCE.

Mr. BEN riNcK moved foraivturn of all British and
French fishing boats which have been captured during the
last ten years for the infringement of the convention of
1843, and of the punishments inflicted in both countries in
those came and, oopy of all correspondence which has
passed on the subject of such captures and punishment'
between the British and French governments.
Mr. CAVE was glad that the matter had been brought
forward, believing that these fishermen had • good ground
of complaint. It was only fair to state that the convention
of 1843 had, on the whole, worked satisfactorily, but owing
to a change of circumstances, and various contingencies,
some of the enactments were found to be of an oppressive
and arbitrary nature. It was to be regretted that when we
made so many concessions to France in the recent com-
mercial treaty, the government did not obtain in return
some relaxatiou of the restrictions which were loudly and
justly complained of by English fishermen.
Mr. LAY ABB said the strongest representations had been
made at Paris on the snbject.aod correspondence had gone on
for some time between the English and French governments.
M. Thouvenel had informed them that be had entered into
communication with the Minister of Marine, who had ex-
clusive jurisdiction in these cases, and he promised that
some arrangement would be come to Ly which the grie-
vants of these people would be redressed. Under these cir-
cumstances, he hoped the hon. member would not press
his motion.

hfr.iiiiiTlNCK reminded the hon. gentleman that the
major grievanoe was that the French authorities habitually
substituted the detention of the boat for the fine, and he
hoped that would be included in his representations to the
French government.
The motion was then withdrawn.

IMPORTATIONS OF FOREIGN PAPER.

Mr. A. TURNER uked the President of the Board
of Trade why the trade and navigation returns did
not include the quantities of foreign manufactured paper
imported into this country, as well as the quantities of
British manufactured paper ex es ported, and the quantiti
of rags, he., for making paper imported ; and, whether he
had any objection to furnish • return of the quantity of
foreign paper of all kinds imported each month since the
abolition of the import duty, up to the end of April last'
Mr. M. GIBSON said that the reason why the trade
and navigation returns did not contain the quantities of
foreign paper imported was, that those returns were
limited only to the principal articles imported. Foreign
paper was not imported in sufficiently large quantities to
entitle it to • place in the returns, but should it become
important ft would be included. If the hon. member
moved for the return, he would agree to it.

THE SLAVE TRADE.

Earl RUSSELL laid upon the table • convention be-
tween her Majesty's government and the government of the
United States of America for the suppression of the African
slave trade, and in doing so, said he might take that oppor-
tunity of stating that the present government of the United
Stake bad shown great anxiety to adopt stringent measures
for the suppression of the slave tide. Their lordships
were aware that for some years pest great facilities had ex-
isted as New York for persons fitting oat slavers—three
slavers preceded to the Havannab, and thence ta the
African coed. Her Majesty's government were fully in-
formed of the names of persons who had fitted out slavers,
and they had given information to their cruisers on the meet
of Africa ; and since the election of the present Presi-
dent, the government of the United States bad taken
mesonres for the breaking up of this traffic. The President
bad prosecuted to the greatest extent persons engaged in
that traffic, and one of them had suffered capital punish-
ment. But further measures were found to be necessary
for the abolition of the slave tide, and Mr. Seward and
Lord Lyons had agreed to the convention that he had now
the honour to lay on the table.
Their lordships adjourned at half-past 5 o'clock.

THE CANDIDATESHIP OF THE ARCHDUKE

hiAXIMILIAN.

The Epoca, of Madrid, contains a letter from,
Senor Hidalgo, formerly Secretary to the Mexican
Legation in Paris, to one of his Madrid friends, in
which he says :
At the time when the three maritime powers were about
to interfere in Mexico we did not think it would be wise
or possible to dream of • prince of any one of the
three nations, and in submitting the question to
the Emperor Napoleon, we so expressed our opinion,
The Emperor replied to our respectful proposals that he had
no candidate, and that be would accept whatever cendlisee
Mexico desired. It never entered into his head to propose
a candidate of his own family, nor into our's to pawn
an English one ; and, though it would be agreeable to car
origin and our sentiments to propose • Spanish prime. we
were withheld by the consideration that the intervening
powers were to abstain from any combination which would
leave them a preponderating influence in Mexico, and that
the ascent of a Spanish prince to the throne would be re.
'sided by many Mexicans as a conquest in disguise. it was
necessary, therefore, to look outside the three maritime
and intervening powers for • prince whose experience,
knowledge, catholic, and liberal conservative opinions
would make him acceptable to all, and who combined these
qualities in so eminent a degree as the Arcbduke Maximilian!
When the name of his highness was mentioned the Emperor
repeated that be bad no candidate. The candidetiship of
the archduke was thee proposed to the Emperor, and it is
right that this should be known by there who see la what
has tam place • combination of the Emperor Napoleon
with a view of bartering Venetia against Yezieo —a com-
bination which would be unworthy either of the two
emperors. The truth is that the Emperor Napoleon, know-
ing she lofty qualities of the archduke, mve his sympathetic
600•Ptrona to his ciandidateshlp, sad, nobly forgetting that
he was at war two years behre with Austria, be offered his
loyal Rapport to the illustrious prince. This moist"
before whom qualities even legland inclines, has been de-
manded by the conservative party of Mexico. That party
desires and expects him with saziety, and it is not now
possible to think of any ether combination.

HOMICIDES JURISDICTION.

Sir G. LEWIS moved to bring in • bill for the more
speedy trial of certain homicides committed by persons
subject to the Mutiny Act, end for giving jurisdiction to
the Control Criminal Court to inquire into such homicides.
The right hon. baronet said that the object of the bill was
merely to expedite the administration of justice in cases
similar to the murder of Calms! Crofton and Captain Han-
non. There wu already an act of parliauneet which en-
abled indictments to be tried at the Centel Criminal Court,
where it was thought that • fair trial could not
be obtained in the county in which the crime
bad been committed; but that act was not applicable in
the present instance, because it required • bill to have been
found by the grand jury. He proposed to extend the law
to cues in which persons under the Mutiny Aet had been
committed for trial by the magutrotee. As there was •
session at the Central Criminal Court every month the
trial of the offender need never be delayed beyond that
time.
Leave was given.

SHOEBIitY AND WAFERING ARTILLERY

Sir G. LEWIS moved for leave to bring in a bill to ap-

Withering, as ranges for the use and practice of artillery.
The measure was merely intended to prevent accidents;
and it would forbid veneela to anchor within range while

BERLIN, MAT 19.

It is asserted, in well-informed quarters, that on

within forty-eight hours after its presentation, on
account of the insulting treatment to which General
Willisen had been subjected.

PRUSSIA.

The Paris Presse remarks :—" One might say
that Prussia is on the eve of a campaign. The
sale of artillery horses has been countermanded;
all the generals in active service and out of it, as
well as detachments from all the corps of troops,
bate been requested by the Commander-General of
the Marches to come to Berlin to be present at the
inauguration of the monument to the memory of
the late Count de Brandebourg. Thus there will
be no deficiency of military force at the moment
of the opening of the Diet."
Dr. Jacoby, who is stated by one of Reuter's
telegrams to have just been elected one of the re-
presentatives of Berlin, gave serious offence in 1848
to Frederick William IV. at Sans Bowl When,
lon the formation of the Manteuffel-Brandenburg
ministry, a deputation from the Prussian National
Assembly went to the King to protest against the
decree of dissolution, the King, after some time,
would hear no more, but cut them short and turned
to leave. Then Jacoby pressed forward, and said,
"It is the misfortune of nations that Kings will
never listen to the truth." The shot told on
the retreating monarch, and has been vindictively
treasured up. Jacoby afterwards sat in the Second
Chamber of 1849 and in the Stuttgart Rump Par-
liament, was a refugee at Geneva, went back to
Konigsberg, was there arrested and cast into prison,
where he lay for seven weeks on a charge of high
treason, of which a jury fully acquitted him. Since
then he has lived quietly at Konigsberg, always
much esteemed by the prominent members of the
advanced liberal party. The dislike the late
King had foe him is understood to be fully
shared by the present Sovereign.

poise, and aecured to them by letters patent for • term of
14 years. The defendants pleaded first, not gmlty; secondly,

CRYSTAL PALACE.

The last "Saturday concert" at the Crystal Pa-
lace wee distinguished by several remarkable attractioes, in
consequence of which, together with the beauty of the
weather, there was an immense concourse of visitors, among
whom the foreign element was conspicuous. The most pro-
minent article of the programme was Meyerbeer's march
written for the coronation of the King of Prussia, and now
produced under the personal superintendence of the author,
though the performance win conducted by the able chef
d'orrhestre, Mr. Manna. The orchestra was greatly
strengthened for the occasion, and there wee,
besides, a neural,e band of military instruments
stationed in one of the side galleries adjoining the or-
chestra. The performance made an immense impression.
The music is bold and resonant, full of those broad masses
of harmony which characterise Meyerbear's composition' of
this class, and lofty and jubilant in expression. Thu effects
produced by the " responses " (as we may call them) of
the separate military land, were most original and striking.
At the end of the march there was • all for Meysrheer.
The illustrious musician came forward, and was greeted with
a shout from thousands of yokes which rang through the
wholeutent of the building. In addition to this smipaiteent
march, the concert included Beethoven's oolong synr
phony in C minor, Weber's " Jubilee Overture," and
several of the vocal duets which the sisters Monkish) wing
so inimitably. And lastly, the perksmances conaluded with
a selection of pieces from Meyerbeieruldrras, admirably
played by Mr. Coward ou the great organ.
