EGYPT.

Letters from Alexandria, of March 7th, in the
Journal des haat*, say that public opinion is so
tired of the Turkish question, and has been so often
excited in vain by the threatening ultimatums
of the Porte, that it seems at present to be but
little disturbed by the news from Constan-
tinople brought loy the Austrain packet on
February 24th. Thu news is certainly not very
encouraging, but people here will no longer be-
lieve in any serious complication. Perhaps public
opinion may not be wrong. Bat, however this may
be, it appears certain that the last letter of Abbas
Paella has irritated the Sultan, and that Abdul-
Medjid sent it back to the grand vizier with an
annotation in the margin, to the effect that "he
could not, he ought not, and he would not consent to
the demand therein contained relative to the Tan-
zimaat. It is, in consequence, supposed that the
next letter to the viceroy will be of a menacing cha-
racter, and will order him absolutely to obey the de-
cision of the Porte. The representations of Sir 8.
Canning are not looked upon as serious. It is
even said that the English ambassador speaks
of Mr. Murray with a certain degree of bitterness.
Many people, however, say that this hostile attitude
of the two English representatives- is only apparent.
The other legations at Constantinople abstain alto-
rther. This is far from taking any step in the
interest of the Viceroy, such as he had asked of them.
What will grow out :of this new complica-
tion ? Will there be an open struggle, a
repetition of the old quarrels between Egypt
and Turkey, or will the Pacha concede the
railway from Cairo to Suez to insure himself a sup-
port which he has not been able to obtain by the
concession of the railway from Cairo to Alexandria.
This last point has its importance. It deserves to
arrest the attention of the European powers, and
gives a very plausible explanation of the attitude of
the English agents. The viceroy has just returned
to Cairo, from his excursion to tipper Egypt, and
it is not vet known what effect the kit news from
Constantinople had on him. On the 28th February
four Pechas had arrived at Alexandria from Con-
stantinople, in the Medjdie steamer. It was
given oat that they were proceeding to
Mecca; but it was supposed that they were
charged to deliver a letter to the Viceroy on their
way. They at once set out for Cairo. The works
on the section of the railway between Alexandria and
I)amauhour had been at last commenced, although
but little has been done. This, however, show, that
the enterprise has not been abandoned. The Duke
de Leuchtenburg was expected at Alexandria on the

Mr. HENRY DROMMOND objected to motions of this
kind, invidiously worded, instead of direct charges.
The motion was aimed to.
DESERTION OF SEAMEN.
Mr. HENLEY obtained leave to bring a bill enabling the

present existed, and to prevent the union of benefices.
MANCHESTER AND SALFORD EDUCATION BILL.
Mr. N. GIBSON moved the nomination of the committee'
on the above bill.
Mr. PE'fOobjected to the selection of names. There
were four panies, he said, who took an active interest in
the question of education. One was the church party, ano-
ther was that which preferred voluntary education, • third
preferred secular education, and a fourth was for mixing
secular with religious instruction. lie thought it hard
that all those parties should be represented on the commit-
tee but the voluntaries, who bad always exhibited such seal
in the cause of education.
Mr. M. GIBSON fully concurred in the right of every
section of the education party to he represented on the
committee. lie had himself submitted one name, who, he
felt, would be acceptable to the voluntaries, but It had been
rejected and that of Mr. Heald substituted. lie thought,
however, that the but way would be to allow the committee
to be nominated now, and a couple of names might be added
afterwards.
Mr. HE YWORTH expressed his regret that no gentle-
man representing the voluntary principle had been named
on the committee.
Mr. WALI'OLE laid it was desirable that some member
of the government should be on the committee' and sug-
gested • postponement of the nomination until Thursday.
The nomination was then postponed.
ST. ALBANS DISFRANCHISEMENT BILL.
On the motion fur the second reading of this bill,
Mr. BELL expressed a hope that the crusade against cor-
ruption would not terminate with St. Albans.
Mr WALPOLE said that tomorrow (this day) the noble
lord the member for London would move the Corrupt Prac-
tices at Elections Bill, and it was the intention of govern-
ment to support it.
Mr. HUME hoped that if the goverenmcnt were sincere
in their attempts to put down bribery and corruption at
elections, they would adopt the only complete remedy,
namely, the ballot. (Hear, hear.)

SWITZERL.IND.

The extreme liberal party of the canton of Zurich
has obtained the victory in the elections which have
just taken place for the cantonal council.
The Journal Jr (iener•e ear :—" On the occasion
of the difference between }ranee and Switzerland,
the public journals have spoken of General Dufour
and certain conferences which he bad, either here or
elsewhere. Now that these difficulties are over, we
can state that G. neral Dufour contributed much to
that result, but directly, and without any interme-
diation between rim and Prince Louis Napoleon.
We think it right that Switzerland should be aware
of the fact, as this is another title ehich the general
has to the gratitude of the country."
The reactionary journals endeavour to excite and
sustain discords between the Federal Council and the
cantonal government of (leneva, but it is now uni-
versally admitted that the authorities of this canton
have acted with loyalty and patriotism.

LANDSLIPS IN SAVOY.—The Piedmontese Gazette
relates that on the night of the 12th a landslip occurred at
Les Dales, in the commune of Le Biot (Savoy). A small
portion of a steep hill, overhanging the dwelling house et
an aged peasant, named Vugliet, at first detached ►tall,
and blocked up his door, but an ominous noise warned tht
inmates that a more serious disaster was imminent. V ugliet's
daughter immediately rose from her bed, and, without stop-
ping to take any clothing, took her old father on her
shoulders, and let herself down with him from the window.
She then returned, took a little necessary linen, end escaped
just in time to avoid being crushed by an immense mass of
earth, which immediately after buried the house under its
fragments. The neighbours hastened to their relief, and
same necessary furniture was saved, but the loss is never-
theless valued at 3,000 f. Another landslip occurred on the
13th, at Mamy, which lies at the foot of the mountain of
the same name. The earth covered about 60 acres in its
fall, but providentially the village was spared, the disaster
extending to within 30 yards of the first houses. Never-
theless the danger is not yet over. Engineers are on the
spot to drain off the rain water which has accumulated in
large quantities, and penetrated through the bibulous soil
of which the mountain is formed, thus causing the landslip.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, OCT. 26.
The senate of Bremen bin; consented that three of
the larger vends belonging to the remnants of the
German fleet shall winter at Bremerhaven, on condi-
tion that the crew be amenable to the laws and regu-
lations of the place. The rest of the ships will have
to winter in Hanoverian ports. Major Jungmann
Inserts, in the Weiser Zeihow, the following adver-
tisement :—" I have to inform the officers and privates
of the former fifth Schleswig-Holstein battery, who,
on the 6th April, 1849, in tho bay of Eckernfoerde,
contributed to the capture of the frigate Oefion, for
Schleswig-Holatein, and consequently for Germany,
that my applications to the federal authorities at
Frankfort for the payment of the prize money due
have been fruitless."

The total number of persona who have been at-
tacked with cholera in Berlin, since the appearance
of the epidemic here, amounts only to 193, of whom
126 have died. The disease hu been so mild here
that it excited no alarm whatever. The medical men
at Elbing, where there were a considerable number
of deaths, have drawn up a report, in which they
state that no case of cholera has come to their know-
ledge, which was not attributable either to improper
diet and excess, or to damp and neglect of cWinli-
nein in the dwellings, with want of ventilatimi.

AUSTRIA.

A dent writes from Vienna on the 22nd :
"On~Tuesdiy evening the Finance Minister assem-
bled at his residence a number of gentlemen con-
nected with commerce and finance for the purpose of
ascertaining their opinion on the_ present state of the
money market. Eighteen gentleiden were_pmel!nt•
among whom were, besides the minister, Chevalier
Baumgartner and Councillor Brentano, four bank
directors, and the president and vios-president, with
several members of the Chamber of Commerce for
Lower Austria. The principal en bject of discussion
mooted by the minister was the edienoy of allowing
private banks in the present state of the country.
The desirability of this' permission was alarmed by
all present, with but a single exception."

Did Markets this week, but prices fur most, kinds of produce
have been fully maintained. The sales of Sugar have gone
off with firmness, at full rates, to about Gd. per cwt. advance.
For the good and coloury qualities of Ceylon Coffee there
has been a brisk demand, as well as for Costa Ries, and for
these sorts prices have advanced about ls. per ewt.; for the
native sorts of Ceylon there has not been any inquiry, and
sales of old import have been made at 461. per ewe. A fur-
rise of about 3d. per ewt. has been established for Rice.
The quarterly sales of Cinnamon were held on Monday,
and went off with spirit, at 2d. to 3d. per lb. advance. Black
Pepper has sold rather dearer. In Tea the chief feature has
been the arrival of " new Cougous," ex " Stornoway," port
of which have been sold at Is. 10d. to Is. Mid., and others
are held for 2s. per lb.

altered in price since our last report. Mushrooms continue
pretty plentiful. Cut Flowers consist of heaths, pelargo-
niums, roses, mignonette, hignoula tenants, and fuchsias.

DENMARK.

In its sitting of the 23rd, the Volkething concluded
the discussion on the first reading of the bill for
transferring the curtoms' frontier to the Elbe. The
first reading was carried by a majority of 79 to 2
votes, and a committee appointed to report on the
measure.

TURKEY.

We read in the Moniteur :—" Letters from Con-
stantinople of the lath announce that the Porte has
decidedly refused the ratification of the loan which
was negotiated some weeks since in London and Pa-
ris. This account is the only one which is exact
among those which hare been in circulation on the
1 affair during the last few days."

INFERIOR POSITION OF WELLINGTON'S TOMB.—
It had been, we are told, the original intention of several
of the persons in authority who are connected with the
Duke's funeral, to have removed the granite slabs which
inclose Nelson to the edge of the grave of his brother;
this would leave room for Wellington, equally near to the
centre, and so the naval and military heroes of the age
would rest without any difference as to their position.
This arrangement has been altered, and we regret to learn
that Welliegtoa will be buried at some distance east of the
centre of the cathedral. This site of the warrior's grave
would be in perfect darkness if it were not for the gae.
lights which faintly light the tombs and arches ; the side
aisles of the crypt, alter leaving the part covered by the
transepts, are comparatively light. The preposition made
in our pages last week to gut rid of the secondhand sham,
the empty sarcophagus belonging to Cardinal Wolscy which
I now surmounts Nelson's tomb, and to place in its stead a
11 monumental tomb, con.eining the body of Wellington, pro-
periy inscribed, thus putting together the two great com-
menders in a place of equal honour, is fat superior to the
proof determination.—TM dodder.

OPENING OF THE PRUSSIAN CHAMBERS.
The legislative session was opened at Berlin on the
29th alt., not, as had been generally expected, by
tho King in person, but by M. Manteuffel, the
Minister-President. In his address the Minister
said:

The government wilt communicate to the chamber pro
positions respecting the communal, district, and provincial
organisation of the country, and respec•ing the constitution
of the first chamber. The last-mentioned proposition will
aim at freeing the crown from limitations and restraints,
which are not grounded in the interests of the country.
The government will maintain itself aloof from party strife,
and, while abstaining from encroachments upon lawful
liberties, it will not permit any weakening of the royal
power by a division of the functions of the eitecu-
five. The government believes that the develop-
ment of the constitution in the manner prescribed by
the law will give security end permanent success. The
September treaty remains u yet uncompleted by the ad.
herence of all the parties; but the government, while
regretting this fact, confidently looks for the adhesion of
the country to the policy which has hitherto been followed.
The budget is framed to meet the necessities of the
times, end with the statuatomed regard to method and
economy.

PRUSSIA.

The electoral law for the first Chamber appears in
the columns of the Anzeiger. It is like the luw of
1850, only provisional, having validity for one year.
The elections will be made by the greatest taxpayers
in every district, meeting in assemblies, without the
right of discussion. Every Prussian is eligible who
is 40 years of age, has lived five years in the mo.
narchy, and has his electoral qualification in the die.
trict which he seeks to represent.

TO Till EDITOR OP ENS DAILY NEWS.

Paris, Sept. 10, 1852.
sm,—The Corsaire is suppressed by virtue of a
decree of the Bth inst. It is not for us to characterise
the act which strikes us in our property and in the
exercise of a right ostensibly assured to us by the
new constitution. We shall also abstain from com-
plaint, as being beneath our dignity. We have,
however, adieus and explanations to give to those
whom, in the circumstances under which we live, we
were justified in regardinf much more as constituents
than as subscribers, and, it is in this view, sir, that
we ask the aid of your journal. You will easily
understand the reasons which oblige us to
seek in a foreign country the publicity which
the independent French press can no longer
afford us. We re-appeared on Sunday last
after a suspension of two months. We will not here
allude to the circumstances under which that sus-
pension was pronounced against us. Revived on
Sunday, we perish on Wednesday evening. What
then occurred in the interval of those three days ?
Did we, like M. Proudhon, ask for free elbow roam
to proclaim by authority the proximate advent of
the democratic and social antichrist? No. We con-
fined ourselves to preaching union, concord, and for-
getfulness of old quarrels. We carefully explained
we did not desire peace against anybody. We
spoke of the fusion as of a thing happily meow
plished, but in which there was nothing to alarm
any one. It seems that in arming our hands with
an olive branch we overstepped our rights, and com-
promised the security of the state.* We were far
from suspecting it. We fall after having waged re-
lentless war against anarchists of all colours. Will
the Corsairs be regretted? We venture to hope so.
We have shed our blood and expended our money for
the cause of order. Our conscience is tranquil.
Accept, sir, the assurance of our highest conside-
ration. (For the management of the Corsair.),

A Madrid letter of the Bth says The Diario

placement of its responsible editor for inserting an
article from the Heraldo on the state of the trea-

publication for a certain time. The Epoca and the
Cbrodducional have also been compelled to suspend
until the jury shall have decided on the article in

have also been denounced. The Horaklo
states that its responsible editor not being able to

The Imperial Gazelle of Vienna contains the text
of an autograph letter, by which the Emperor calls
Baron Kuhner, hitherto a minister without portfolio,
to the dignity of a privy councillor, and a seat in the
Keichsrath. M. Baumgartner announce*, through
the same medium, that the execution of the new
tariff will commence on the Ist proximo, notwith-
standing the impossibility of publishing its provi-
sions in the various tongues spoken in the Austrian
monarchy before that date.

and an interdict hu been laid upon the dissemi-

been given for the confiscation of Bibles imported

DENMARK AND THE DUCIIIF,S.
A letter dated Hamburg, January 24, say.: The
ministerial crisis in Copenhagen has terminated in
the following arrangements—A collective ministry is
formed for the kingdom and the Duchies, over which
the King presides. The Hereditary Prince Ferdi-
nand and Prince Christian of Glucksburg, as standing
next the throne, have part in its deliberations. The
portfolios are assigned as follows : Von Bluhmo,
Foreign Affairs; Count Sponneck, Finance and Com-
merce; General Hansen, War; Von Steen-Bilk,
Marine (instead of Admiral Zahrtmann, who de-
clines); and Scheel, Worship. The special ministers
for Interior Aflitirs and Justice are, for Denmark,
Bang and Claussen ; for Schleswig, Count Carl
Moltke ; and for Holstein, Count Iteventlow Cri-
mini!. The King is said to have made these last
nominations with great reluctance.

others that a statement had Min me& elsewhere hy-do
noble lord at the head of the government which indicated
clearly the coarse which the government, of which ho is the
chief, intended to pursue. I understand that the noble lord
did not complain of the question which was put to him, to
which I was no party, as to the view he took of the prewnt
state of affairs. Ho stated (and I think he was right
in so stating) that he would not bind himself or the
govesnmcnt to cause a dissolution of parliament at any par-
ticular moment, as there might be circumstances which
might prevent it teiCng place, bat that as soon as all public
measures of urgency were disposed of, ho would advise an
early dissolution of parliament, with a view to its re-open-
ing before the close of the autumn. It appears to me that
this declaration Is so far satisfactory. I think that as mat-
ters stand, it would bo advisable for us to proceed at once to
consider the naval and army estimates, and I trust those
votes will be agreed to without mnch discussion. It is ilear
aft.r the intimation of the noble lord at the head of the

government, that there will be a dissolution of parliament
in May or June, and such will be the ferment in the
country, with a new to the new elections, and the centraw

that dissolution is not delayed longer than the exigencies

offer no obstacle to its introduction; but I do not give any
pledge with regard to it, as when it comes before the
house, they will be able to judge whether it is such a
measure as they think ought to pass; and I shall be at
liberty to form a judgment upon it. With respect to
other measures which the government may introduce, at
will be competent to the house, if they do not th.ok them
to be of urgency or importance, to cause them to be post-
poned. Such being the s 4 ate of affairs, if the house should
coincide with me in that view, I propose that another day
in the week should be given to the government; and that
when the notices now on the book are disposed of, that
Thursday should be a government day, and that on other
days orders of the day should have precedence.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.-LIVERPOOL, MARCH 22.

Ciowi. col AT.

At ten o'clock this morning Mr. Baron Alderson took his
seat in this court, when the usual formalities having been
disposed of, the grand jury was sworn and charged by the
learned judge.

VIOLENT MOUE AT it

Janes Quinn: i-;;;UnW ;;;; aged 21, was indicted for
highway robbery at Manchester, accompanied with great
violence, in company with several other persons. The jure
having found the prisoner Guilty, the judge commented on
the frequency of this crime in Manchester, and rentenced
the prisoner to 1.5 years transportation, a former conviction
having been proved against him.
The other cases tried in the Crown Court to-day wore
destitute of public interest.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-YErrzmuy.

The sittings of the court for the March adjourned session
of the peace for the county of Middlesex were resumed this
morning, at the Gualdhill, Westminster, by adjournment
from Clerkenwell, before Mr. Witham, deputy assistant
judge., Mr. Roc, and Mr. Augustin Robinson. There are
64 prisoners charged with felony, and 6 with misdemeanour,
for trial.

ESCAPE op A PRIPONER.—ShortIy before the ruing of
the court it was discovered that a prisoner named Barrli,
had made his escape from the cells, and had succeeded in
getting clear away. It appears that he contrived whilst
being taken from the dock to slip up a staircase leading in-
to the second court from underground without being per-
ceived, and on getting there he had no difficulty in getting
through one of the windows into the street. He was a well
known character, and the officers are in active pursuit 11
of him.

SUPPLY.—TIIE CONDUCT OF THE OPPOSITION.
Lord J. RUSSELL said—l wish to take the opportunity
of going into supply to say a few words on what has taken
place since Monday last. I was then anaions to ascertain
(considering tho position of the government) the policy
114 intended to pumps, and the measures they proposed
to bring forward in the present session. I wan told that,
as they were in as acknowledged minority in the
house, they could not bring forward any saw
one with regard to our commercial policy. I was
also told, that they intended to bring forward MOWN of
considerable importance, which would have led to a swift
of the usual length. It struck many members of the hawse,
during that debate, that this course was so unusual that it
ought not to be acquiesced in. It would not have been un-
usual, if we hal been aaked for the forbearance of the
house, in consequence of the new government being in •
minority, or if we had been told that they would bring for-
ward tumours:a in which they were in a majority ; but to
claim forbearance as a minority, and confidence u • ma-

ority, appeared to me to involve a great contradiction. At
the (love of the debate on Monday evening, being unwilling
to come to any vote to limit the supplies, or to deelue
any ',solution adverse to the government, I aged
