teuffel and Baron Ihtsfoldt, the Primal= Minister of
Formica Affairs and tee Preaeies =labor at Paris, are of
coarse the personages deals meted to represent their sovereign
ea this (melon. In roferelog to this setject fa the HOW
of Commons last night Lord Palmosetors raid: "It had
been eoes:dered that as the sego Aations thoeld proceed, sad
iw properilort am there should be any reams to cord that
duty satgAt geminate inn satisfactory monster, that Prussia
should be invited, not to negotiate the treaty, bat to accede
' to the result of the negotiation. An levitation for that par-
' pose had bees addresses to the Prussian government, and
Ibe presumed it would be, or had already bees, tempted.
That Beres Itauteeffel was then at Paris be very much
doubted—he believed be bad rot even yet loft Berlin ; but
he would naturally go to Pais and jsin M. Hatsieldt at
that court."

The Paris papers publish a despatch from Berlin, Mating

AMERICA: THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
Extract of a letter from New York, dated Feb. 28 :

The presidential campaign has commenced ; the
present minister for the Unite] States in London will pro-
bably be the nominee of the democratic ritety, and will most
likely be elected also. He is a unwritten of considerable
abilities and coneisteney. The greatest thirg sgaiost him,
with many. is his being a party to the (Mend convention.
Prapident Pierce @till eapects to be re-elected, bet I cannot
believe that possible suer the ezbibittoo of himself which
he hes made while in office. By the Know-Nothing party
Mr. en-President Fillmore has been alresey nominated. He
is a very respectable min, of good sdministntive ability ;
but the party who hays taken him up are rot strong
anima to carry the election—the Whip are likely to
join in sappoeting Mr. Fillmore. So far as we can antici-
pate, the trial of strength at the election will be between
Mr. Buchanan and hlr.F.llmore there will. however, pro-
bably be at least one other candidate. We have bad an
uuuuu Ily long and severe winter in this country generally;
a heavy snowstorm this week, with 18 inehtessow standing
all the winter on the high gritted near as.

AUSTRIAN CIRCULAR.

Ws find in Le Nord of yesterday the text of a
despatch from Count Buol to Count Valentine Ester•
hazy, accompanying the propositions which that
diplomatist has taken to fit. Petersburg in the name
of Austria.

In this despatch it is stated that his Imperial Ma-
jesty the Emperor of Austria, though finding the
Allied Powers unalterably resolved not to take the
initiative in pacific overtures, nevertheless believes
himself justified in expressing the hope that they
Powers continue to bold the principles, which guided
them at the outset, and have no objects of sg.
grandisement in view. The Imperial Cabinet
is therefore encouraged to endeavour to procure a
settlement, taking the four principles already
accepted by Russia as the best starting point.
The propositions already known to our readers
are then given, and it is added that " the signing of
these by the belligerents will be immediately followed
by a general armulice and definite negotiation,:
Count Bud adds that if the propositions are accopad,
Austria will not hesitate to warmly rewarmed
their acceptance to the Courts of Paris and
London, and that he is persuaded the "amid
conditions " will be no serious obstacle. "We
will not," says Count Buol, in candid%
" enter upon the grave consequences which Ruda
will entail upon herself by refusing to enter apes
the paths we a second time open to her, for arriving
at an honourable reconciliation,—a refusal which
would bring upon her the weight of an immense re-
sponsibility. We prefer relying upon her wisdom to
weigh all the chances."
Le Nord observes that there is nothing whatever
of the nature of an ultimatum in the above, and that
Europe has been entirely deceived upon this point;
also, that Austria does not guarantee the adherence
of the Allies, even to the above propositions.

THE BLACK BEA.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

11EFFECT OF THE PEACE ANNOUNCEMENT

AT PARIS.
(TROY OUR OWIt CORRIATONDERT.)
PARIS, THURSDAY EYRNING.

The announcement in the despatch posted at the
Bourse to-day of the exact hour at which the raramis-
way of the Bourse received the despatch, is a novelty,
and I her it said that that functionary knowing that
the Rents had been rising rapidly on the Boulevard
all the morning, and that large fortunes were being
made and lost in the course of an hour, resolved to
clear himself from all suspicion of being concerned in
keeping back the news from the public for a single
moment. The Government must have received the
intelligence in the night. It did not, however, ap.
pear in the Monifeser. Those who were in the secret
mast have realized immense sums of money.
The same motive which induced the Commiusly
of the Bourse to state the hour at which he received
the despatch, led him to throw open the doors before
the usual time. The great central door, which le
usually cloud, was to-day opened, and long before
one o'clock the public, astonished at the absence of
the usual demand for their sticks and umbrellas,
found themselves able to approach the spot
where Government despatches are placarded. During
the first few minute s there was no great crowd, the
mass of the frequenters of the Bourse being on the
Boulevard, and wondering why everything wee going

_ -
up. At the usual hour for the commencement of
business immense excitement was observable. Many
' a speculator for the fall, who coming from a distanos,
wee tidally mounting the steps of the building not
knowing the new., exclaimed, when he heard that
the Rents had risen five francs, "I am ruined!'
The crowd in the interior of the Bourse was so great,
that numbers of people could not get near their
brokers to give orders. Many, wild with excitement,
kicked and cuffed everybody about them, to make
their way towards the railing of the parquet. Owing
partly to this difficulty of communication between
broker and client, and partly in a great degree to
the extravagant demands made by sellers for
every kind of security, the amount of be-
siness does was very much restricted. The
Bente, which had been done on the Boulevards
during a paroxysm of excitement at 68fr. 50e., opened
at 671 r. for cash end for account. In the course of the
day it was quoted for account at 68fr. It afterwards
went down to 67fr. 60c., but recovered spin, and
closed very firm at 671 r. 90c., with a definitive sties
of 4fr. 10c. Credit Mobilier rose 140 fr. The Or-
leans Railway rose 100 fr.; Lyons, 75fr.; Northstat

THE FOURTH LIGHT DRAGOONS.

A correspondent sends ns (Brighton Herald) the fol-
lowing " particulate of the freaks indulged in by the
officers of our army," which, he says, have come to hie
knowledge :
The first cue was a young officer, who, in consequenee
of not joining in the eatravagance of his companions in
arms, was forcibly placed in a chair, a napkin tied tightly
round his chin, and in that position be was fed with pap,
and, on resisting, las was slapped behind and treated in
every respect like an infant. Another victim, who refused
to join the mew, went to bed at a reasonable hour, and,
feeling satisfied that his rest would be disturbed, he took the
precaution to barricede his bed-room door. Bat that did not
avail, for about midnight his persecutors went :up-stairs,
broke in the panels of the door, and forced themeelves Into
the room. They then, as we are informed, forcibly placed
him under or in a fountain, with nothing on but his shirt,
thus giving him a cold bath. Another young officer they
wanted to get rid of, but found in him a very troublesome
eastomer. Bo in ostler to ridicule him, they procured an
effigy, dressed it in the young officer's clothes, sod then sus-
pended the figure from a dome in the barracks."

SWITZERLAND.

M. Sydow, Minister of the King of Prussia to the
Swiss Confederation, was still at Berm on the lith.

Now that the first excitement of the Neufchatel
affair has passed away, the moat prominent subject of
discussion in the Federal Assembly is the direction to
be given the railroad from Lausanne to Berne. Party
spirit runs very high indeed on this subject, the die.
putants on one side contending for a line via Oron and
Freiburg, and those on the other for one by way of
Yverdun, Payerne, and Freiburg. On the 18th the
' discussion was proceeding in the Conseil National
with great vigour.
A letter from Frankfort states that there is no
truth in the reports which ascribe to the Prussian
government the intention of bringing its dispute with
the de facto government of Neufcbatel before the
Germanic Confederation. M. Mautenffel has addressed
a circular to the representetivee of Prussia at the
courts of France, England, Austria, and Russia, in•
yoking the protocol of Loudon, dated May 24, 1852„
and following also the principle laid down at the
Paris Congress, in its sitting of April 14, 1858.
namely, " that States between which any serious
difference shall arise shall, instead of appealing to
arms, have recourse, as far as circumstances will
admit, to the good offices of the other powers."

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 18th, in the Debates
sayst—t' Prussia in her turn has just sent a note to
Denmark, in which she declares herself in principle
favourable to the redemption of the Sound Does, and
proposes opening negotiations between all the govern.
menu interested in the question, in order to fix the
amount of indemnity. A special conference will be
held at Copenhagen for this purpose in November.
The customs conference of Eisenach is going on very
slowly, and will probably last until the end of the
year. The conference has removed its scene of opt).
rations to Weimar, as Eisenach does not contain suf-
ficient accommodation for the members during the
winter. The Provincial States of five provinces of
Prussia have been convoked for the sth October, in
order to give their opinions on different bills which
the government is to submit to the Chambers.'
London, England, 1856-09-23

ROYAL DECREE.

Hiving taken into consideration the rations set forth by
my Council of Ministers, I decide es follows :

Art 1. The Constitution of the Spanish Monarchy, pro-
mulgated on the 23rd of May, Ind, is and shall continue to
be ra-establ'Otad.

Art. 2. Until the Corte', in concert with my own &nth°
city, shall have determined what is fitting to be done, the
said Constitution is modified and shall continue to be moth.
lied by the following additional act, which is to be observed
and executed as an integral part of the said Constitution,
frees and after the publication of the present royal decree.
Given at the Palace, Sept. 16, 1836.
(Signed) THE QUEEN.
(Conatenigned)
This President of the Council of Ministers,
LEOPOLD O'DONNELL.

The last news received from Catalonia leads to the
supposition that the Carlists have not entirely aban-
doned their insurrectionary projects. They bad,
with their friends in Madrid, organised a conspiracy
which has been discovered, and has led to the arrest
of a great number of them.

THOM •

The cabinet is dislocated. The Minister of
Finance has sent in his resignation, which has been
accepted, and two other ministers are to follow him
in his retirement.

It must not be supposed that the sale of the church
property is of great importance as a money ques-
tion. Nearly the whole of it hu, in fact, been
already sold, and what remains is of small moment.
As the law most be carried out as regards the other
mortmain properties, the exchequer Is sure to be re-
plenished, and the public credit would be propor
tionately improved, were not the question so mixed
up with politics.
The Bonne is in a great consternation. The public
creditors, to whom Cantero promised payment of
their interest on a certain day, have lost all hops of
receiving It.
The French minister has caused the publication in
his organ the Journal de Madrid, of an article under
the head, "A propos do Duo. de Valence." It con-
tains an unmistakable injunction to Narvaez to
abandon all idea of becoming Minister, combined with
a fresh promise of support to O'Donnell.
The cholera has appeared again in tke Asturias. A
terrible storm has caused frightful ravages in the pro•
vines of Leon. The lightning set lire to six
houses in one village, and killed two persons
in another, while in a third it killed a shepherdess
and thirty sheep. The storm extended about ten
miles.

In Gironde the public librarian has discovered a
manuscript of the Bible which is traced to the euly
put of the twelfth century. It is written on parch-
ment of great fineness. The pages are divided into
two columns, and enriched with arabesques and
ornamented letters, painted with great taste.

IMPORTANT MOVEMENTS OF THE MEDI-

TEHRANEAN FLEET.

A telegraphic dispatch from Marseilles, dated
yesterday, says that the Sinai, which left Constanti•
nople on the 15tb, brings the following intelligence:
The squadron of Admiral Lyons has received, by
telegraph, an order to remain, in consequence of the
dispute relating to Bolgrad and the Isle of Serpents.
Some French ships also will soon arrive. The
Austrian troops will, for the same reasons, remain in
the Principalities.
London, England, 1856-09-23

RUSSIA.

The Russian government has just decided that the
populations of the vast territory which it possesses
beyond the Lake of Baikal, in Northern Asia, shall
receive an organisation similar to that of certain
populations of the Black Sea and the Don, and shall
be called " Comas of the Baikal"; also that they
shall form a special army, consisting however only of
cavalry, commanded by a hetman. The government
has likewise decided that the Governor-General of

Eastern Siberia shall have under his command th•
maritime department which has just been established
'at Irkutsk, and which comprises the administration.
of the fleets and naval stations of the Pacific.

" The Empress Dowager of Russia," says a letter
from Berlin, " will be accompanied in her visit to
Italy by the Grand Duke Constantine. Her Majesty
will leave Moscow on the 23rd, and will proceed
direct to Nice, via Warsaw and Vienna, and will not
visit the Prussian capital until her return."
The Journal de St. Petersburg publishes the fol•
lowing rescript, addressed by the Cm on the ith
iota. to Geoeral Berg, Goveroor•General of Finland:

In the enemies of the functions of Governor-General of
Finland, which had been confided to you by supreme astho-
' rity, you have fulfilled the duties which that office impend
upon you with the true seal end the peculiar talents which
have always distinguished your career in the service of the
state; and by your happy c operation in the accomplishment
of our designs, constantly tending to the prosperity of this
unity, you have succeeded, in a period difficult though of
limited nitration, in securing the general confidence and
gratitude of the population. In order to manifest the high
regard with which you have inspired Ls by such conduct, end
to attach you by indissoluble bonds to this country, we have
raised you to the hereditary dignity of Count of the Grand
Duchy, and we enj you to p ymiraelf to the Cham-
ber of Nobles, in crier that your name may be inscribed
there among those of the counts.

ITALY.

NAPLES.
A correspondent of Le Nord, dating from Naples,
Sept. 10, says :
The aspect of the situation is very different from what it
was at the date of my last letter, the flattering unreason of
which were derived from the conciliatory spirit then per
riding the negotiations going on between our cabinet and
the French ministry. In fact, nothing thee could lead us to
expect so sudden a change in the settlement of our dif-
keenest with the Western Powers. What has occurred in
high political spheres ? Whence comes this cheese of
feeling, this sudden transition from the most concilia-
tory overtures to threats ready to be converted
into deeds ? I know not ; but certain it is that
sines that time the favourably breeze which augured
so happily just now has changed into a gale that
may shortly bring here into Out readatead an Anglo•Frecch
squadron, the approach of which would probably be sig-
nalised by the recall of the representatives of Frames sad
114,1 and, in case the King should penist in his refusal to
grant the general amnesty di sanded by France, which on
this question proceeds heed in hand with England. Bork
is the substance of a communication which the French

misdate! hie jest made to oar goverment.
This inenaeleg attitude on the part of Frazee is by so
mash the les comprehensible, seeing that Baron Breoier,

if my information be correct, had given us reason to hope
that his csbinet would take into consideration and give due
weight to the friendly explanations contained in a note that
wu lately sent to it, as well as to the English Marv(
d'afaires, by 11. Cards,—a note which bad beim previously
submitted to the French diplomatist for his sanction.
If Ism to credit the versions most believed is the higher
sphere s of our capital, this mote, whilst prominently stating
the governmental seas ins that prevent the King from
seceding at present to the wishes /Rousted by the Western
Power., has given a glimpse of his Majesty's wish to enter
gradually Into the path of reform, when be shall dun It
pouible to do so. Everything seemed to be going on
smoothly, when Baron Brenier, reverting to what be had
said, declared this note to be oalatisfactoty, and had to.
course to throats.

As it Is not ivy likely that the Breech government
would ohmage from dsy to day iu line of 000 duet, it ia to
be presumed that Baron Bresier was not thoroughly
initiated into the intentions of hie Cabinet.
_

The Kirg, they say, is resolved on tuistieg foreign pres-
sure, end on maintaining the inviolabilay of hie royal pre-
rogative herein lies the danger of the present situation.
Oar dispute her reached that ro'at at which reasonings
end cmjeetures become superfluous; henceforth words
must be dOetrded to make room for events which cannot
now be long in asking their eminence.

man being detained in custody oa the depositions

General, who contended that a strong came of ass-

ties, who did not call upon the prisoaer's counsel to
reply, ordered that the bail should be two storks,
besides the prinoner's own bail, of each.
In the Court of Fachequer, on Wednesday, judg-
ment wee given in "Caron o. Kennedy." It was an
application to the court " to rescind an order made by
Baron Richards, in chamber, on the 11th March last,
and that the judgment marked by the plaintiff on
the 10th of the same month he permitted to stand."
The order made by the learned baron was that the
defendant should have three weeks time to plead, the
erar to be without prejadioe to any application for
farther time to plead if he could not plead within the
time allowed. The Chief Baron, in giving judgment,
expressed his opinion, and the opinion of the court,
ithat the judgment should stand. The other judges

made the order appealed from, and who thought that

In the Metal Market the demand for copper

makers not being able to overtake their orders. The
Birmingham market, to, however, rather quiet. In
iron, the Welsh masters are well supplied with
orders for rails and bare, and are very firm in their
rice& Staffordshire is not quite so well off, but
there is less underselling. The strike among the
colliers in Scotland continues; the w price of pig iron,
however, has been without much alteration this
week, varying from 745. to 761., and to-day elms
fiat. Lead continues very firm, and stocks are light.
Spathe maintains its recent advance, the stock being
only 2,630 tons. Tin is very firm, and it is possible
there may be still some advance, but the high price
le somewhat checking consumption. Tin plates in
moderate demand only.
