PRUSSIA.

Letters from Berlin state that the dissolution of
the Chamber of Deputies is definitively decided on,
and most persons interpret in that sense the pas-
sagg of the closing speech in which the government
expresses the conviction that it will find in the
patriotic sentiments of the country a sufficient and
increasing support. In the last elections, the num-
ber of deputies belonging to the feudal party in-
creased from 11 to 37. The ministry, it is thought,
hopes to see is repetition of the electoral campaign
attended with similar results.

THE SUBSCRIPTION TO THE NEW LOAN.

PARIS, Jkx. 3D.

The official report of the subscriptions to the
new loan has been issued. It appears that,
542,061 persons, 134,105 of whom reside in Paris,
have subscribed for 219,321,536 fr. of rente.
The irreducible subscriptions for (dr. rente amount
to 2,409,366 fr. Persons having subscribed for
stuns of from lofr. to 120 fr. will have 6fr. rente
allotted them. For subscribers for other
amounts the allotment will be at the rate
of bfr. 21 centimes for every 100 fr. subscribed.
The report further states, that the resources
which the loan will provide for the Treasury will
more than suffice for the public service, and will
enable the government, dating from to-day, to
to suspend the faculty, granted to subscribers, of
paying in advance the instalments of the loan not
yet due.
The report says, in conclusion : "The eagerness
of the country to respond to the appeal is a fresh
proof of its confidence in the government of the
Emperor, and of the security felt by everybody in
the credit of France."
The Monifeur of this morning says that the as-
sertion that the Bank of France had opened nego-
tiations with the Bank of Vienna for a loan of 50
millions is bullion is completely inaccurate.

FETING A " VICTORY " AT BERLIN.

In a letter from Berlin, dated Wednesday, we
read—

The city of Berlin has to-day feted for a mood time the
victory of Duppel, compared by the Meg to the victories of
1813. The Denebrogs (pennons) and guns taken from the
Danes on the memorable day of the 18th alt. have arrived
here, and ware brought into the city with all solemnity.
Early in the morning the principal street was paved with flags
of the Prussian colours, black and white, and towards noon the
crowd assembled under the Linden trees to see the guns
which for three weeks kept up the combat with our rifled
cannon. The rortf2e entered the city by the Branbenbottrg
gate, surmounted by the statue of Victory. When the
Danebroge appeared, carried by the ocesquierors of Duppel,
immense 'ethane= was displayed by the crowd.
Then cams the inns of all aim, some of brew,
the greater part of iron, mounted on car-
riages quite shattered. Some of the 84 ivounders
which had been dismounted were rolled along on
wooden wheels of the simplest construction. The
proemial tamed before the King's palace as far as the
square situated between the Museum and the Old Castle.
There the guns are exhibited to the curiosity of the
Berliners, and will serve for scene days as playthings for
the lads of the town. One may see a proof of the
rapidity with which the victory of the 18th of April
was obtained, in the fact that, with a few exceptions,
the guns were not spiked. Every piece been a mark indi-
retie' the redoubt where it was found. Some vehicles
loaded with the drbria of gun carriages, wheals, he., serve
to demonenete the efscacy of our artillery. Moreover,
there bad been brought home some bane, of which I do
not know the nee, but which will remind us that we have
had to deal with an enemy stronger upon sea than upon
land. The number of pieces forming part of the first tran-
sport is about 50. The remainder—there are 118 in all—
will arrive to-morrow.

THE COVENANTED SERVANTS OF INDIA.

Sir E GitOG.L.N then rose to bring under the
consideration of the hones the positioo of the
dvil servants of the crown in India who might
have entered into covalent. to serve in that country.
Tits hoc. baronet read the covenants into which candidates
were obliged tomato., and complained of the expenses to which
they were put, and that they were not put under pay, like
all other servants of the crown, from the date of their
gazette. Coder these covenants they were entitled to
special pay for special services, and he thought they should
get it from the date of their appointments.
Sir C. WOOD said that in old times the directors nomi-
nated the writers for ladle. After their nomination they
uerierwent a very expensive education at their own cost, and
when they mired in India they were paid, and not until
then. the rule being that service in India oould only be
paid in India. In 1938 thou appointments were thrown
open to competition, and an allowance of 1001. wu roads
to the suceeadal candidate'. and so far therefore from their
being in a worse they were in a much better position than
under the old regime; and this was moved by the fact
that there were two candidates for every Indus vacancy.
Yr. VANSITTART confirmed the statement of the npht
boo. baronet as to the expenses of the old system. He
himself was a Haileybury man, and did not receive a rupee
until be arrived in India. He did not know, therefore, why
these poverty-stricken Dublin competitive candidate., who
were not half so good as the Haileybury men, should corn-
, plain. (Loud laughter.)

THE INSURRECTION OF THE ARABS IN

The following account of the rising of the Arabs
is given by the Malta Times :
By the arrival of her Majesty's ship Firefly, Lienß•Com.
G. R. Wilkinson, on the morning of the 25th inst., from
Teals and Baia, we learn that a serious rising of the Arabs
in the interior had taken place. The Bedouin tribes
from Bum to Talmo have revolted, in consequenoe
of the increase of the capitation tax. They have
killed the govmroor of Mar, sad report says have
cat him in pieces. It is stated that 50,000
Arab horsemen have interrupted all communication be-
tween Tanis and the prosiness. The insurgents have
taken possession of Kairooao—a fortified town, fifty
miles from Sum, and one huedred from Tanis—and
being the second holy city of the massulinans,
may give the insurrection the ohmmeter of a holy war ; when
the usual erne massacre of Christians will naturally follow,
anises strong and inimed;ste steps be taken to prevent it.
The government of Tanis is estinsly powerless, having lately
discharged all their soldiers who had saved their time, and
have now only raw recruits to oppose to the revolted tribes.
Fear were entertained that the towns of Sum and Mona-
stair would be attacked by the insurgents, sad great appr►
Demise existed among the British inhabitants in Tunis that
the Ifehommedas population world lies against them. The
Bey has been invested with extraordinary and irresponsible
powers, in osier that he may be able to act with prompti-
tude, independently of 6,1 minieten, should it be near-
' a•

It is hoped that by thews active measures a check may be
pot on the exoemes which are being committed, and the
anthoeity of the goveransect re-established.

remitted, and hopes are entertained that tranquillity will be
shortly restored. -

Mr. SOMES moved for leave to bring is a bill for im-
posing restriction on the sale of intosicatiog liquors between
the hours of eleven on Saturday evening and six o'clock on
Monday morning. He said be gathered from the debate of

necessary to enable Lb* peaple to get their supper and
dinner beer. In the present measure, therefore, he pro-
M.cf.* give one hour for getting the dinner
.a (A MENsta—Thank you.) (Laughter.) He also
proposed to allow one hour, namely, from eight
to nine, in which to get the supper beer.
(Laughter.) Besides this, provision was made for the sup-
ply of travellers and lodgers. He +jibed the house to
understand that the working classes themselves prayed for

INDIA.
THE INDIAN BUDGET.

We have received advises from Bombay, dated
the 14th ult.

The subject of chief interest daring the previous
fortnight had been the Indian budget, read by
Sir C. Trevelyan in the Legislative Council of the
Governor-General on the 7th ult. This exposition
of the fivancial state and jprospects of the country
is on the whole favourable. The actual revenue for
the year 1863-64 was 44,753,0001. The actual
expenditure was 44,722,0001. There was a deficit
on budget estimate of revenue on opium
1,150,0001. The deficit on entire budget estimate
was 217,7001. The estimated revenue for 1864-65
is 46,160,0001. The estimated expenditure
is 45,340,0001. The promised surplus for
1864-65 is 823,0001.
The estimated cost of the Sittana expedition and
camp of exercise was 200,0001. The duty on to-
bacco is reduced from 20 per cent. to 10 per cent.
The import duty on cotton piece goods is raised
from 5 per cent. to 71 per cent., with adjustment of
value to market, rate of day. These are the prin-
cipal features of the budget Economy is recom-
mended in view of the income-tax expiring in July,
1865. An advancement in the tariff valuations on
piece goods and yarns is much censured by the
Bombay press. In the case of the great bulk of
such goods, the valuations are raised to the follow-
ing extent :
Grey abirtinp, soadapollams, and printers 78 per cent.

The Financial Commissioners sent out from Eng-
land to revise the accounts of the Public Works
Department have submitted their report. The
government of India has approved in general of
the reforms recommended. Colonel Chesney stands
appointed as accountant-general, and Mr. Kellner
as deputy.
His Excellency the Viceroy was expected to leave
Calcutta on the 15th ult. It was understood that
he had only been waiting for the production of the
budget. His excellency proceeds direct to Delhi,
and after a brief stay will proceed direct to Simla.
He will shortly be joined there by the Commander-
In-Chief in India, who at latest dates was in Cash-
mere, and who was expected to leave it for Simla,
vik Lahore, about the same time that the Viceroy
would leave Calcutta.

BUSLSESS OF THE HOUSE.

Sir G. GREY gave notion, as it was doubtful whether the
noble lord at the heed of the government would be present
cc llooday, that be would postpone the notice for a select
committee on the practice of the Privy Council with
mend to the reports of school inspectors till Thursday

journment of the house till Thursday, the 19th inst.

The Rhoda are very troublesome at Indore.

The Rev. Levi Janvier, a member of the Church
Missionary Society, has been murdered in cold
blood by an Akhali fanatic at a place called Anund.
poor, in the Hooehyarpoor district of the Punjab.
The murderer bad no quarrel with his victim, de-
ceased, but committed the outrage to avenge him-
self for certain imaginary insults which he said he
had received from the English.
There have been several incendi►ry fires lately
among the shipping in the river Hooghly. The
vessels destroyed were all Federal Americans.
Sir Herbert Edwardee is spoken of as Lieutenant-
Governor of the Punjab in succession to Sir Robert
Montgomery.
A serious accident occurred on the Great Indian
Peninsular Railway, on the Gth ult. A ballast
train of fifty waggons from Bombay ran into the
passenger train from Mali= at the junction four
miles from Bombay. Many were wounded but
none killed.

Another conflagration bas happened on the Great
Indian Peninsular Railway : thirty-one trucks of
cotton consumed, at a loss of nearly a lakh and a
half of rupees.

The returns of the recent census of Bombay
show the population of the Island to amount to
860,000. This is undoubtedly far short of the real
number.

AUSTRIA AND THE POLES.

"Austria," says the Mick, "continues to give
up to Russia the Poles who take refuge in Gallic*
but those extraditions no longer occur at Brody,
where facts of that nature excite general indigna-
tion ; the prisoners are sent off through small
villages on the frontier. The Austrian authorities
have been instructed not to give up the refugees
directly to Russian agents ; the Poles are taken to
the frontier and forced to enter the kingdom, the
Russians having been previously informed of the
place and hour at which their prey would be thus
driven into their nets. This is not called giving
up, but removing, and thus the semi-official organ,
the General Correspondence, was enabled to say
that the Poles were no longer given up to the
Russians."

fall to her lot. We are thus made directly respon-
sible for the tearing up of a European treaty
scarcely a dozen years old, and for the violent dis-
memberment of an ancient, independent, and con-
stitutional State. Acts of violence which, had
we abstained hum interference,would have retained
their proper character, will now receive a Euro-
pean sanction. The result to ourselves will, there
is too much reason to fear, be something far more
serious than a mere temporary lom of dignity,
position, and influence. By following this per-
nicious course we formally recognise and endorse
a policy of high-handed violence which, if carried
oonaiatently out, would be fatal to the existence
of every small, independent state, of every free

SUPPLY.-IR.LSH SPIRITS.

Mr. WHITEEiLDE moved that, in the opinion of this
home, it is expedient that the existing duties on spirits
should be reduced to the standard for the three imentriet of
the United Kingdom at which it stood is 1868; urging that
emu in a Anemia] point of view snob a return to the former
duties would be advantageous.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. after a
general rept to the preliminary observations of Mr. White-
side, t that the question did sot apply to Ire-
. Lod sloes, het to the three kiegdoma, and that the pulley
which guided the government in relation to the duty on
spirits was the reverse of that which they were bound to
,hpep is view with regard to other branches of trade ; they
bad to look, sot to the expansion of the trade, but how to
raise from the smallest area of mecum ptioe the *gad
&menet of duty. The proposed reduction of the duty on
spirits from lila to Be. would set, in his opinion, replace,
by the increase of amentoption or by the reduction of illicit
dietillasion, the loss id duty ; ear would it be justifiable to
legislate with the view of augmenting the consumption of
ardent spirits. He disputed the intereame drawn by Mr.
Whiteside from his facts reprding the mammas of illicit
distillatioa is Ireland. Awarding to all the evidence,
though there might have been en occasional ioereaee, it had
never been so great under the present ari under the low
duty.
Sir 3 NORTHOOTE mid that, althorigh the Clisseellor
of the Exchequer bed bees disappointed is the resells of his
experiment, be did not think parliament should at aces
pronounce easiest it and reverse its policy. He thought it
would be better to wait till this subject had mme before the
committee Dow silt* on Irish taxation.
After some remarks from Lord C. Hamilton, Mr. Man-
sell, and Lord Naas, tie resolution was withdrawn.

INFAMOUS TREATMENT OF POLISH

WOMEN BY 1111831 A.

The Bieck of yesterday says it has received •
private letter respecting the treatment to which
Polish women are subjected by the Ensuing, which
contains such terrible details that it does not dare
to publish them. The Polish women referred to
are the wives and daughters of those who have
taken part in the insurrection. " They are torn
from their families and transported to Siberia,"
gays the Siecle. " They are given, like the slaves
of old, to pitiless masters, who force them to
contract fresh unions Their marriage ties are
broken. The ancient barbarism which Christianity
destroyed is revived by this abominable transporta-
tion of women, and the language of indignation has
no terms sufficiently strong for such means of repro-
awn. The letter we have before us dose not confine
itself to vague allegations ; it cites persons and names.
When will some one in power take pity upon a nation
subjected to such ignominies t The person who
brought us this document wrung his hands in
despair and invoked the justice of God, It is only,
in fact, that justice which can punish such crimes.
llf Russia continues her system of transporting
the Polish women, let her remember that Roman
Empire which, after having also covered the world
with its violence, was in turn overthrown amid vio-
lenoe and barbarism."
London, England, 1864-05-31

THE POPE.

The Indepnulance Bags in referring to the state
of the Pope, says :—" Notwithstanding the satis-
factory news published by the Afonifeur respecting
the Pope's health, people still occupy themselves
with the events which a change of reign at Rome
might lead to. It is declared in Paris that if the
choice of the new Pope fell upon a candidate dis-
agreeable to France, the expeditionary corps would
abandon Rome to its fate, but would remain at
Civitn Vecchia, if only to hinder other powers from
intervening against the rights of the Roman popu-
lation."

A correspondent of the Debate, writing from
Turin on the 27th, says that the fact of the Pope
baring taken part in the Corpus Christi procession
had somewhat calmed the agitation produced by his
I condition of health. It was nevertheless thought
that his state was serious enough to Jus-
tify the belief that in a short time the
crisis would occur which must necessarily
lead to the vacancy of the Holy See. "The Its-
Ilan government," he adds, "is occupied with this,
I and I have reason to believe that negotiations have
been entered into with the French government.
It is impossible to say at this moment what is the
result. But be certain that the Italian govern-
ment is master of the situation, in this sense that
nothing can be done without it, still less in opposi-
tion to it. If any party movement whatever is
tried, it will be repulsed not only by the
army, but by the general good sense of the nation.
Upon this point my opinion is deliberate and fixed.
But the more completely the government is master
of the situation, the greater is the responsibility
which rests upon it. The members of the cabinet
know this and do not in any way disguise the im-
portance of what will take plaice in case of the Holy
Sc. becoming vacant. Ido not know what are
their resolutions ; I believe, however, it may be
considered certain that they will do nothing which
may lead to a rupture, or even to a coolness of the
French alliance."

The Italia says that on the first announcement
of the Pope's death more than 2,000 Roman re-
fugees, who have been supplied with passes by the
Neapolitan authorities, will at once return to their
country. ♦ popular movement will take place
on Roman territory in neveml places, collisions
with the French being carefully avoided. until by
persisting in pecificagitation, the Italian government
is forced by public opinion to accept the direction of
this movement and appeal to the votes of the
Roman posiple. " It is hoped that Franc* will allow
the Ring of Italy to be proclaimed on Romeo ter-
ritory, and accept the fait accompfi.
