LANCASTER.

The train passed through Wigan and Preston without
stopping; but the stations at these places were densely
crowded with people, who loudly cheered her Majesty.
The station at Lancaster was also crowded, and there
were not leas than three or four thousand people
present. A great number of ladies were spe-
cially provided with room on one side the plat-
form, in frost of whom were the mayor, aldermen, and
corporation, accompanied by the vicar and clergy ; and on
the ether aide the platform was a guard of honour composed
of about 100 rank and file of the 34th regiment, under the
command of Major Goodenough, Captain Simpson, and
Captain Guilt. The train entered the station at three
minutes before one p.m., punctual to the time at which it
was expected, and was received with many demonstrations
of attachment to the royal family. The people cheered, the
troops presented arms, the band of the regiment played the
royal air, " God save the Queen," the bells of the church
gave forth a merry peal, whilst the tops of the castle,
church, and other buildings were decorated with royal stan-
dards. The Mayor was introduced to her Majesty, and at the
head of the corporation remained in conversation with the
Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert several minutes.
The distance (ran Holyhead to Lancaster is 153 miles, and
here the officials of the London and North Western gave
up the charge of the train into the hands of the Lancaster
and Carlisle Company's servants. Mr. Howard, of Grey-
stocks Castle, one of the directors, also took his seat in the
royal train here. The train was in motion again a few
minutes after 1 o'clock, and was due at Carlisle, where her
Majesty was to stop 40 minutes, at 3.30; and at Edinburgh,
324 miles from Holyhead, at 6.30 p.m.
London, England, 1853-09-06

PARKSIDE.

The royal train (whic► left Holyhead yesterday morning
about a quarter before nine o'clock), made its first stoppage
at Prestatyn, in North Wales, and then passing through
Chester and Warrington, male its second halt at Parkside,
about half way between Manchester and Liverpool, at
11.46 p.m., where a fresh engine was in waiting. The dis-
tance is upwards of 100 miles. The station was handsomely
decorated, Thomas Legh, Esq., of Lyme Hall, having lent
his yacht flags for the purpose; and a great number of the
principal ladies and gentlemen resident in the neighbour-
hood were present, and standing on each side of the line,
who loudly cheereii the royal family as the train came to •
stand. Mr. Nicholls, the station muter, who was fifteen
years in the Life Guards, and Mrs. Nicholls, his wife, who
had been many years • domestic at Windsor Castle, were
present, and bad the honour of presenting a fine bunch of
grapes to the Prince of Wales,which were graciously accepted.
The engine in waiting to take forward the royal train
was a fine new locomotive, named Prince Ernest, end was
driven by Mr. Hunt, of Preston. Mr. Norris, superinten-
dent of this portion of the London and North Western line,
had charge of the train; and it was here also joined by
Mr. Henry Woodhouse, superintendent of permanent way
over the whole line, and other officials. The train was in
motion again at about 12 minutes before 12 o'clock.

HER MAJESTY'S RETURN FROM

IRELAND.

The royal squadron arrived at Ilolyhead from
Dublin on Sunday morning, precisely at 8 o'clock. At
half-past 3 p m., her Majesty left the outer harbour in the
royal yacht, accompanied by the Fairy tender and the Ban-
shee, with the intention of visiting Cameroon Cutle,
Owing, however, to there not being sufficient depth of
water, the vessels were unable to cross the bar at the
entrance of the Menai Straits, and the royal party, after
cruising in Carnarvon Bsy a short time, returned to Holy-
head.

Her Majesty, his Royal Highness the Prince Consort,
with the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, and suite, left
Holyhead at a quarter put 8 a.m. yesterday, direct for
Scotland. The royal train passed through Bangor, where
many well-dressed persons were awaiting to catch a glimpse
of the royal party, at 9.14. Her Majesty was much
cheered, and graciously bowed her acknowledgments.

FRANCE.

PARIS, MONDAY EVENING.
Letters from Constantinople of the 22nd of August
say that the alterations made by the Divan in the
note of the Four Powers were looked upon as highly
important there. The personal opinion of the Sultan
was, it is said, favourable to an unreserved accept-
ance, but he yielded to his grand council, who voted
the modifications by a large majority. According to
some accounts the Austrian internuncio alone, of all
the foreign representatives, took an active part in
pressing the Porte to accept the note. The
Turkish and Russian ambassadors at Vienna
have met in conference for the first time since the
dispute reached its height. This is considered a
very favourable symptom as confirming the strongly
expressed assurances of M. de Meyendorff that the
Emperor of Russia will consent to the changes. The
belief that he will continues to be general here, and,
in fact, the public mind, absorbed in the immediate
interest of the corn question, has ceased to feel any
anxiety about Eastern affairs.
Although there was a fall in flour of 3fr. or 4fr.
the hectolitre at the Hate on Saturday, it cannot
safely be inferred, either from this fact or the partial
reports from the provinces, that there is a prospect of
any sensible diminution in the general averages
throughout the country. The fall in Paris results
simply from the fact that buyers were scared away

QUARTZ CRUSHING.

A very satisfactory exhibition was made to-day at
the Novelty Works of the operations of Berdan's Cloid
Quarts Crushing and Amalgamating Machine. In the
space of two hours upwards of two tons of gold quire were
passed through the machine, which gave a product of 176
dollen in pure geld. This is at the rats of about 4 doh. 26c.
per 1001ba., Or wady 90 dollars per ton. The ore was from
the Dora Mines of :tenth Carolina, and was by no means a
fair sample of ore from those celebrated mines. The quarts
was mixed up with a good deal of earth, which increased
the bulk, while it reduced the per cent. richness. The
machine worked beautifully, and to the satisfaction of
every one present. Within the past few days Mr. Bor-
den has made the amalgamating much more perfect
by adding • separator, which saves every particle
of mercury that may escape from the crushing
bowl, also any gold that may pass with the water from the
bowl into the reservoir. With this improvement this ma-
' chine is without doubt the most perfect gold quarts crueller
and amalgamator in existence. A few days mince an expe-
riment wee made in Borden's machine on five samples of
gold quarts taken from fin veins in a mine just opened in
North Carolina, with the following result :
let sample 43 lbs. quarts ore, pd't. D.l.3s—equal to D. 3.00 per bu
lad do. 00 do. do. 3.30 de. 8.00 do.
3rd do. 177 do. do. 3.95 do. 3.50 do.
4th do. 191 de. do. 7.50 do. 6.00 do.
Bth do. 141 do. do. 7.04 do. 0.00 do.

The ore fruit two of the vein was strongly impregnated
with iron pyrites. The other three were hard quarts. In
none of this ore could gold be seen with a strong glue.
The result speaks volumes in favour of the machine which
extracted this large per cent. of gold, and of the richness
of the mine from which the ore was taken.—Ness York

POPLAR AND LINIEHOUSE LITERARY AND

SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTION.

The second anniversary of this institution was
celebrated last evening by a literary soiree, at the institu-
tion, in Idale-street, Poplar. The large hall of th,i build-
in.; was elegantly decorated for the occasion, and many of
the ornaments were of an extremely unique and apposite
character. Festeens of evergreens and flowers wire sus-
pended round the hall and in front of the gallei y ; and on
tables in the corners of the room were exhibited models of
steam engines, steam boats, and sailing vessels. Amongst
them was a very large and accurate model of the Fairy and
one of the celebrated America yacht. There was also a
model of the British Plate Glasa-works, which are situate
near Poplar. At intervals around the walls were suspended
the flags of various nations ; and above the ebairman s seat
was exhibited a aeries of models of vessels, risiu3 from the
common river boat impelled by oars to the large steamer,
designed to illustrate the gradual advance of naval ar-
chitecture.

There was a crowded attendance of the mentLers and
friends of the institution, embracing a great number of
ladies. Amongst the gentlemen on the pl aural were—
Mr. C. 8. Butler, M.P. (WI o presided on the platform),
Mr. Richard Omen, Mr. Francis Chiliad, Mr. Alderman
Wire, Mr. Joseph Howson, Mr. S. Young, Mr. Juhu Carter,

fact, the whole of them, more or less, to extensive reforms
—not merely in our financial system—but to that more pro-
minent question, parliamentary reform. They must do some-
thing to prove to the country that • coalition ministry, u
this is termed, ought not to be decried without giving it,
at least, as fair a trial as Lord Derby's government had.

lowing case came before Justice Jackson, the sitting

.—ACTION FOR LIBEL.
Mr. }l'Dosongh, Q.C. (with whom wee Sir Colman
O'Loghlint, Bart., Q. C.), moved the court that the defen-
dants should have tbree weeks to plead. The action was
one of libel, end the affidavit of the defendants stated that
it was arceesary for the purposes of the defence that pleas
of justification should be filed, and that inquiries in London
were deemed neceuary, and that same could not be ob-
tained in due time to plead, according to the rules of the
court. Judgment had been marked by the plaintiff pend-
ing the motion.
Mr. Lynch, Q.C. (with Mr. 0'1)Am:oil), resided the mo-
tion, on the ground that the plaintiff's proceeding was
regular.
His Lordship said that as the proceedings of the plaintiff
were regular be should have the costs of the motion, but as
judgment had been marked pending the motion, the judg-
ment should be vacated without emu.

the over night he was! suddenly sent for to quell a dis-
turbance in the women's ward, and found Frremantle
drunk, as usual, and assaulting Mrs. Challoner.
Mr. Beadon asked how it was the women could get drunk
in the union ; and the porter replied by purchasing the
beer of the old women.
The magistrate committed the defendant for 14 days'
hard labour.

to bring a Dcrbyitc troop to its rescue,
it can still lean on the support of • ne
less than three parties. 'Like the armorial
bearings of the lile of Man, it has three lags, and
may apply to itself the Isle of Man motto— 'tuba
quocunque jecerii. It may yield and roll about a
little if you push it hard, but you might as well
think of upsetting a Tousbule. There is little likeli-
hood of the now Ministers being assailed by unrea-
sonably angry assailants. Except Lord DERBY and
a couple of journals—who are no more regarded
than as many angry monkeys shaking their cages
and screaming in the Zoological Gardens—no one is
disposed to breathe an unfair word of them. The
onty danger to which they seem to be exposed is that
of " woe unto you when all men speak well of you."
They are more likely to be perverted with syeo-
phantic flattery—such as the 2'i,aes beslavers them
with daily—than weakened by denunciations or
angry importunity. The spur may be administered
to them whenever they appear likely to be sluggish,
as, for example, in the matter of Parliamentary Re-
form. The Derby revelations, coming immediately
at the back of the St. Albans revelations, show how
urgently a thoroughgoing measure of Parliamentary
Reform is needed, yet it is clear from the language
both of Lord ABERDEEN and Lord JOHN Russell.
that is, of all their promised measures, the one respect-'
ing which we are most sure to be told—" You must
not hurry us," This must be watched.

DL\NER TO LORD PAL
TIVERTON.

Alter the re-election of Lord Palmerston, on Mon-
day, • number of his lordship's friends and supporters
entertained him at dinner at the Three Tune Hotel. F.
HAIL, Esq., presided. After the usual loyal toasts the
chairman proposed the noble lord's health, which was
drunk with enthusiasm.
Lord PALIIIIISTON, on rising to respond, well received
with bed applause. He said that much as he valued the
honour of representing jilts borough of Tiverton in parlia-
ment, he valued still more highly the personal regard and
friendship with which he had always been received by the
Inhabitant, of that place. Having briefly referred to the
laal adoption by the House of Commons of the principles
of free trade, the noble lord adverted to the militia form,
which had been recently raised by voluntary enlistment •
sad be expressed his gratification to find that that body had
as fully jastified tbe hopes of the people of England.
(Cheers.) The remainder of the force would be levied in
the mina of the present year; and he trusted that when
they were raised, the militia force of England would prove
the brave defenders of their country, If danger should arias.
Having thanked the company for their renewed expmeMons
of kindness, the noble lord resumed his seat amidst loud
and prolonged cheering.

LAMBETH.

James Rokal, a petson of respectable appearance, was
charged with missing a forged note for 51. on Mr. Thomas
Runt, the landlord of the Bird in Band public-house, is
Garden-row, Southwark.

Mr. Haut, the prosecutor, deposed that on Christmas-eve
the prisoner, who was a customer of hie, was.at his house,
Asked ehnn4e for a M. note, and handed him that now pro-
duced. Knowing the man before, and believing the note
to he genuine, he at once changed it for him. He subse-
quently paid it away to his brewer, and on that (yester-
day) morning it was returned to him stamped •• forged."
He sent to the prisoner about the note, and he in the tirst
instance said he would settle it, but subsequently declared
he should have nothing to do with it, and be in conse-
quence gave him into custody.
Mr. William Podee, a publican out of business, said be
was assisting his brother in-law, the last witness, on Chrbt-
taas-eve and was present when the prisoner changed the
note produced, and he saw Mr. Hunt write his own and the
prisoner's name on it. The prisoner said that he had
changed the note for a person who was a stranger to him,
in front of Ben Omura bar in Bt. Mattin'telane, and wit-
ness at the time remarked that it was a very foolish act on
his part to change a note for a stranger.
The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said that he had
changed several notes in the Christmas week, but being no
scholar, he could not say who he changed the note iu ques-
tion for. In reply to a question put by Mr. Puttee Ili to
who the two men were who were with him at the time he
changed the note, he declared that he was not in the com-
pany of any one. Mr. Podee declared the contrary, and
the prisoner was remanded for a week.

MARLBOROUGH-STRIGIT.

Emanuel Nathan, the proprietor of the Waterloo Coffee-
house, Jennyn-street, was summoned by the police for
keeping a disorderly house.
Inspector Whall proved that he visited the defendant's
house on Sunday morning a little before one o'clock, and
found in the rooms on the tint, second, and ground floors
30 women and about 20 gentlemen. Several of the gentle-
men appeared to be intoxicated from the noise they made.
• Witness called the attention of the defendant to the number
of prostitutes in the house, and requested him to clear them
out. The reply of the defendant was, he would do so as
soon as they had done their refreshment. Witness told
him he should see if he did so, and then left the house.
Witness remained outside of the house for more than half
en hour, during which time only twelve women and several
men left the house. Several males and females applied for
admission during that time, but were refused. Witness
went again into the house, and found about twenty females
still in the house. He told the defendant he had not kept

Mr. Lewis, for the defendant, contended that the law in-
tended to apply only to disorderly prostitutes.
Mr. Hardwick said the Act of Parliament made no dis-
%Meilen between orderly and disorderly prostitutes. He
must take the case as proved, and therefore would inflict a
am of 31. and costs.

The Post Gazstk of Frankfort states that the
immense military magazines at Coblens are receiving
provisions and munitions of all kinds, in quantities
which suggest an expectation of extraordinary events.
Letters from Vienna state that numerous arrests
ofworkmen inhabitiogthe faubourgs of that city were
effected during the lest fortnight of 1852.
With the produce of the last loan the Austrian
government repaid, on the 30th ult., a million and
half florins to the Bank.

The Wanderer of Vienna states that the King of
Prussia is expected in that city in a few days, on a
visit to the Emperor of Austria.
A letter from Vienna, of the 30th ult., in the
Breslau Gazette, states that the Austrian govern-
ment has resolved, on the recommendation of a mili-
tary commission, to surround the capital with a con-
tinuous wall of fortification, the extent of which will
be five German miles (about 22 English miles).
The municipal elections at Leipsic have gone
entirely against the conservative party. Not one of
their candidates has been chosen. This result has
occasioned great excitement in Dresden.
The King of Bavaria is to be accompanied on his
Italian excursion by Dr. Diinniges, whose name has
been upon one or two occasions put forward by the
German papers as the probable successor of M. Von
der Pfordten, first minister of state. The King
travels in the name of Count Werdenfels. After a
brief stay at the court of Modena, he proposes to take
up his temporary residence at Rome, where apart-
ments have been prepared for him in the Villa Malta,
which the taste of the ex-King Louis has enriched
with so many treasures of art.

MINES.

- • -
THURSDAY Evian's,—
The market for home mining stocks to-day has
been inactive, and devoid of striking feature. Bell

vance of yesterday. The only sales reported to as
are East Basset, at 46; Wheal Mary Ann, 41; Bell
and Lanarth, 14; Wheal Zion, 21, 1; Butterdon,
41, 6 ; Wheal Chiverton, 8.
Notwithstanding the violent fluctuations prevalent
of late in the other departments of the Stock Ex-
change, prices of the gold mining shares are well
supported, although very little dealt in. Nouveau
Monde and Ague Fria were in more demand. At 4
o'clock Colonial Gold wore quoted #to prem.; Great
Nugget, 1-16 din. to 1-16 prem. ; Port Phillip, to
die. ; British Australian,;? to die. ; Nouveau Monde,

HOLLAND.

ROTTERDAM, SEP?. 27.
The recent storms have done immense damage in
this city and the neighbourhood. Several dikes
gave way in the vicinity, and extensive inundations
ensued, the inhabitants being obliged to take refuge
in their boats. Numerous trees on the far-famed
Boompjes are prostrate, and several streets are
covered with chimney-pots, tiles, bricks, and rubbish.
The communication with the suburbs is interrupted,
except by means of boats. The accounts from the
towns and villages on the Scheldt are saddening;
the floods have in many places carried all before
them—houses, cattle, the produce of the harvest, and
furniture. It is feared that several lives have
been lost. All this day, hundreds of persons
have been employed in this city in pump-
ing the water out of the cellars ; and it hu been
remarked that warehouses which were not touched
by the great flood of 1825 are now partly under water
—a proof that the ground has given way. The timber
wharves along the river have greatly suffered. At
Werthendam several persons are missing, and it is
feared they have bean carried off by the flood.
Letters from Gort (Gorinchem) state that several
polders have given way, and a number of cows been
drowned. Large quantities of hay have been seen
floating down the Scheldt. Part of the town of
Brill is under water. Fifty-three trees have been
thrown down in Amsterdam, and two houses in
Haarlem. The inmates were buried in the ruins,
bat they were released in time to recover. Consider-
able damage has been done in Breda.
The Amsterdam Ilandeisblad states that from the
7th to the 26th inst. the number of cholera cases in
that city was 233, of which 134 terminated fatally.
On the 26th inst. four new eases occurred in the
hospital. In this city the number of eases up ti the
25th inst. was 21. Eight perwani recovered, and
twelve died.

Letters from Flushing are full of disastrous ac-
counts. A large brig has foundered near that town,
and it is said that all the crew perished, a London
and Antwerp steamer which passed the spot having
been unable to take them on board.

COMMERCIAL 4ND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.—THIS DAY.
With the exception of foreign wheat, the arrivals of all
descriptions of grain have been moderate sines Neaday.
The little English wheat shown realised rather more money
than could have been obtained in the early part of the
week, and a good demand was experienced for the
medium qualities of foreign wheat for removal to the
country at an advance of ls. per qr., whilst the liner des-
criptions of foreign were not dearer than before.
Flour maintained its value.

Barley sold on rather better terms, and oats being scarce,
were saleable at an improvement of 1.. per qr.
Beans and peas maintained former rates.

NEW ZEALAND.

Our files from Wellington extend to the 14th
May.
The accounts are rather favourable than otherwise.
Thu vital deficiency of a profitable export was being
cured by the demand from the gold colonies for New
Zealand produce. The Cook's Straits Spectator notes
the following exports from the four Southern colo-
nies:-4,000 bales of wool valued at from 50,0001. to
60,0001. Besides which there had been exported
during the first quarter of 1833, to the Australian
Colonies, the following articles of the value annexed,
viz. :—Bacon and hams, 300/.; cheese, .5601.; butter,
1,0971. ; flour, 2,16.31. ; rope and cordage, 8251. ; sawn
timber and houses in frames, 4,3651.; being an in-
crease over the corresponding quarter in the previous
year of 6,2001., or nearly 25,0001, per annum.
The Hon. Constantine Augustus Dillon, brother of
Viscount Dillon, Land Commizsioner of Nelson, and
one of the oldest and most respected colonists, was
accidentally drowned when attempting to cross the
NVairan river.

The Spectator gives a glowing account of the pro-
gress of settlement at Wanganui, the scene of the
last war. The town had been made a port of entry,
and a strong trade was rising up with the Australian
colonies. Farms, well fenced and cultivated, were
becoming very numerous, and very many new set-
tlers had arrived, among whom were several families
from New Brunswick, in British America. Several
flour mills had been erected for the natives, who were
among the most enterprising agriculturists, and an
industrial school had been commenced for the educa-
tion of the youth.

Evicnos of Isisa TENANTRY IN

- -..—..-.
Yesterday, from an early hour in the morning, the vicinity
of Portssan-square presented an unusual wane through
the ejection of the Irish colony,which has so long inhabited
a place running parallel with Edwards-street, from Orchard-
street. known as Orchard-place, but formerly as KeU Melt-
buildings. As long as eighteen months ago notices
were served (under the seal of Lord Portman, the
ground landlord), upon all the families who
inhabited this sink of filth and misery, that the
leases under which the houses they inhabited were held by
their landlords, expired on Michaelmas day, 1863, but no
notice was taken by the people of the repeated warnings
they have reuived on the subject. Everything was left
till the last minute, and yesterday morning the process of
sammary ejection was carried out under the orders of
Mr. Hardwicke, the surveyor and agent to Lord Portman.
SUICIDE AT CAMDEN TOWN.—A lamentable cue
of suicide was discovered on Tuesday evening to have been
perpetrated by Mr. William Shaw, a builder, melding in
Arlington-street, Camden Town. Mr. Shaw, who has for
many years takes an active part in parochial matters in St.
Pancras, sad was highly respected, bad latterly become
somewhat flighty in his manner, and would at times absent
himself from home. He had not been sees, it is stated,
since Sunday evening; but en Tuesday night he was dis-
covered suspended from a team in some back premise. in
the rear of his house, and it is supposed be had been haag-
lug there from the time he was Ant missed.

VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.

The feeling which has been awakened by the ces-
sation of transportation has suggested the advisabi-
lity of celebrating the event. A meeting has been
held at the rooms of T. D. Chapman, Esq., M.L.C.,
in furtherance of that object, and the 10th of August
of the present year, which is the bOth year since the
settlement of the colony in 1803, was fixed upon to
celebrate a jubilee. Amongst the arrangements it
is proposed that a solemn thanksgiving shall be
offered by the Bishop of Tasmania, at St. David's
('athedral, and that similar religious observances
shall, as far as practicable, take place at all the
churches and chapels throughout the territory. The
succeeding festivities will comprise an entertainment
to be given to the children of the various schools,
and a display of fireworks. A committee was ap-
pointed to conduct the necessary arrangements, and
a subscription list opened, nearly 2001. being sub-
scribed on the spot.—Melbourne Argus.

SHARE LIST&

TUMIDAY Evisnia.
At the commencement of business in the railway,
market prices receded slightly below the closing
quotations of yesterday; but, the scarcity of stock
increasing as the arrangement of the account pro-
greased, and the funds rising, prices rose in the early
part of the day with wonderful rapidity. London
and North Westerns advanced from 1011 to 104
to 105 ; Midland, to CO to 61 ; Lancashire and York-
shire, to 641 to 65 ; Great Western, to 811 to 821 ;
Caledonians, to 251 to # ; York and North Midlands, to
23 to 1, &c. On the announcement of the rise in
the Bank rate of discount, an equally rapid relapse
ensued, but prices were at no time so low as, and
finally closed at a sensible advance on, the final
quotations of yesterday.

THIS DAY.—Tw•o o'CLoci.

The railway market opened quietly, but the tone
has since greatly improved, and prices, owing to the
general scarcity of stock, have advanced all round.
At the present moment prices stand at nearly tke
best point of the day. London and North-Western is
quoted 1038 to 104; Midland, 584 to 60; Great
Notthm‘s, 181 to 4; Dover., 171 to 18; York and
North Midlands, 238 to 24; and other stocks ate a
proportionate improvement.
Frenoh shares, being swum, aws also higher than
they left off yesterday. Northern. are quoted 308 to
341 ; Paris and Lyon., 151 to 16; prem.; and Stn.-
bourgs, 374 to 38.

SMITHFIELD MARKET.-THIS DAY.
The supply of Beasts is not large but quite equal to the de-
mand; there being very few of thechoicest desenptionon offer
they are readily disposed of, but trade is very dull for other
kinds. Owing to the non•arrival of foreign consignments
the number of sheep is very small, consequently Mondays
prices are fully maintained. The demand, however, is
very limited, this being Michaelmas week. Calves are
dearer, in consequence of the short supply. From Ger-
many and Elnland there are 168 beasts, 761 sheep, and 103
calves; Spain, 220 sheep; France, 20 sheep and 2 calves ;
600 beasts from tae North and Midland, and 80 mikh tows
from the Rome Counties.

the last reply mods by Reschid Pacha to the note of
the Conference." _
__

A letter from Berlin states that in order that
Prussia may not be taken by surprise, the govern-
ment has decided that the new steam corvette the
bantzig, shall prooeed to Constantinople, and be
' placed at the disposal of M. de Wildenbruch, the
i Prussian Ambassador.

Intelligence to the 16th, one day later than that
received at Marseilles from Constantinople, is given
in the Lloyd of Vienna, which says that the Sultan
had refused to sign a warlike manifesto to be
addressed to the nation. It adds that the Great
Powers had not succeeded in causing the Divan to
accept the note of Vienna without modifications.
The if of Vienna, in a postscript to a
letter from Constantinople of the 15th, says:
The news of the rejection by the Cabinet of S. Peters-
burg of the modifications made in the note of Vienna has
this instant arrived here. It is the more difficult to say
what impression this account hes produced on the Tacks, as
an marmot of a contrary sense had been just before received
from Odessa.
