GERMANY.

The Bourse Gazette of Berlin says :—" The com-
mercial propositions of Freesia have been submitted
to the conferences of Eisenach. They consist of
notable reductions in the tariffs of corn, rice, dried
fruit, and iron ; and Prussia proposes that the favours
accorded to maritime navigation shall also be con.
ceded to fluvial communications."

MADRID, Rani 23.
The state of the Queen's health is satisfactory.
To-day, after a public competition, the works of
the Puerta del Sol were adjudged to Font, at a re•
daction of thirteen millions; the result is considered
excellent. The Cortes had definitively approved the
bases of the organic laws on the Council of State,
electoral rights, municipalities, courts of justice, the
press, and the national guard. The Cortes were
about to adopt the bill, authorising the government
to concede the third section of the Madrid to Irun
railway, namely, that which goes from Burgos to
the frontier, and passes by Vittoria, Toledo, San Se-
bastian, and other towns. The Cortes had also de-
termined that, in consequence of the opposition of the
Cotelonian deputies, the tariff reforms should not
come into operation before September 20. A royal
decree had been promulgated by the Minister of
Public Works, eanctioniog the concession to Count ,
de Morey, and other gentlemen of the Central of
France railway, of a railway running from that of
Madrid to Almansa, to Cordova, and to Malaga.

AUSTRALI A.

The colonial trading screw-steamer Hellespont ar-
ri Ted at Singapore March 19, with a large mail for
Europe, consisting of twenty-eight boxes and seversl
bags of letters from Sydney, Melbourne, and Ade-
laide, from which places news has been received to
the middle of February.

Sydney papers to February 13 are chiefly taken
up in discussing the elections under the new consti-
tution, which were then going forward. There was
no other political intelligence of importance. The
markets were looking up, and the general prospects
of the colony very satisfactory. Intelligence had been
received, via Portland Bay, of the total loss of the Aber•
deen clipper Vernon, 800 tons, between Cape North-
umberland and Rivoli Bay ; all on board must have
perished, the vessel being literally smashed to pieces;
some bodies were found on the beach, fearfully man-
gled by the violence of the wreck, and were decently
buried by the inhabitants. The Varoon was from
Manila to Sydney with a full cargo of sugar and
other produce for the use of the colony. The papers
also announce the lose of the American clipper,
Reindeer, belonging to Messrs. E. Gassett and Co.,
of Boston, which struck on an unknown rock out-
side Torres Straits and foundered ; the crew suffered
severely, being forty-two days in open boats, subsist-
ing on shell-fish, and were so completely exhausted
that on reaching Moreton Bay, they had to be lilted
out of the boats, not having strength to stand or
walk.
Melbourne papers are to the 18th February. Acting
Governor Macarthur had socoeeded in forming •
ministry, and was consolidating the new government
to the satisfaction of the greater part of the colonists.
His Excellency wee gaining golden opinions by his
prudent conduct and determination. The yields at
the gold fields were undiminished. From January

1 to February le, 1866, there had been shipped
3.4,661 ounces of gold, or 16 toes 2 qrs. Sibs. 0011.. '
which, at 80e., amounted to 1,638,7241. The pries of
gold had advanced to 31. 16e, per ounce. There had
been severe tioodv at the Bendigo digginp, doing
much damage; the losses wee, estimated at 10,000
owlets, Some tint. had taken plain at the diggings,
the diggers being desirous to obtain the government
reserves of land, on which to carry on their mining
operations.

Dimas' on gold revenue
The abolition of the Homes fee hes not, therefore
so far been productive of any serious loss to th;
treasury.
The principal item of decrease in the year bas been
in the land revenue, of which the comparative re-
sults stand thus:
Premeds of lead oaks is 1864
Do. do. hi 1865

Deeresee on the Tear
This decline is to be accounted for in the reduced
value of land, and not to a lesser quantity ha% ing
been put into the market, but of this 1 will qua
more authoritatively in my next.
Under the head of Customs there has been an in-
crease in the items of spirits, cigars, tea, and sugar,
and a decrease in tobacco, wine, beer, and coffee.
There is also a decrease in port and harbour dues of
28,7191. 14s. 3d. The Chinese capitation tax pro-
duced no less than 11,0811. 7s. 3d. dsriog the past
quarter, for which period alone it has been levied.
On the whole, the statement of revenue must be
considered satisfactory, for, while a decrease in the
total receipts on the year has been shown, there is at
the Name time an improvement in POMO of the chief
sources of revenue, especially in the customs. The
falling off is the gold revenue has been more than
saved in polio& and other establishments on the
gold fieldr, and so the measures of last session, in
reference to the abolition of the license fee, may be
pronounced to be financially successful.
Trade continues to be very dull. No transactions
are reported, and no decided improvement is looked
for until the end of the month. Retail dealers, too,
complain that business is below the average of the

year.
Gas has at length, after five and a half years of
promise, been introduced into Melbourne.
The death of the Governor has postponed for a
fortnight the great public demonstration which is to
take place hen in honour of the fall of Sebastopol.
The intention is to set apart one of the park reserves,
and after a grand military display has been made, to
devote the remainder of the day to genuine old-
English sports.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(MX OCR GIVE CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
The following article appears in this evening's
Pays:

The foreign newsmen take pleesire from day to day in
fixing a more or less proximete period for the departure of
the plenipotentiaries row in Paris. This intelligence ap-
pears to us want ng in probability. As we have already
said, if diplomatic usages and precedents, re to be observed,
the exchange of all the ratifications will take place in a
solemn sitting, and will be recorded by a final protocol.
Consequently we bare reason to helicva that
none of the plenipotentiaries will leave Paris before
the exchange bee been efficted in the requisite form. How-
ever, it M not impiuible that the ratifications may be ex-
changed much sooner time is generally supposed. The ma-
nifeato of the Emperor Alexander bar already shown that
on the part of Ramis no obstacle is to be apprehended. On
this subject, it has been said that the labours of the Con-
gress will continue even after the r,t.ficetion as. ex-
changed. In that caw, we incline to think that a commis-
sion, composed of the second plenipmettiaries of each

The Rente, after opening at 71fr. 20c. and
