The Petrie thinks that the affair of Berrie will be
terminated by the Porte adopting the resolutions of
the Skupechtina. In 1830, 1839, 1640, and 1842,
the Sultan sorepted changes of government voted
by the representatives of the Serviaa people—all that
he can wait is an acknowledgment of his authority,
and this is implied by the thct of the Skupechtina
proposing to sand a deputation to Constantinople to
ask for the sanction of their act. In the meanwhile
the Petrie says the amertion of some foreign journals,
that the Western Powers have already, by virtue of
the treaty of Paris, taken certain resolutions relative
to Sepia, meet be premature,. "Diplomacy scarcely
knows= yet what has taken place in the province. If
oar conjecture as to the &mamma should be realised,
the powers will have no occasion to interfere, and
the latest revolution in Servia will be an incident of
no compequenoe so far ea regards European politics."
At the opening of the Bourse an advertisement of
the sinking fund was posted up announcing that it
will purchase (or a capital of 129,420 fr. of Rente per
day, beginning on the 3rd of January next; vie.,
64,640 fr. in Fourand-a-Half pm Cents. ; 360 fr. in
Old Four-and-a-Half per Cents.; 1,200 fr. in Four
par Cents.; and 63,320 fr. in Three per Cents. Though
these purchases announce the intention of investing
the 40 millions which have been voted in the budget
of 1839 for the sinking fund, the announcement has
had no effect on the market, which has been flat.
The Rents fell 6e. for account, closing at 73fr. For
cash there was a rise of foc., the last price being
73fr. Sc. In Mohler there was no change, though
during great part of the day the shares were in con-
siderable demand. Railways were If/. or 26. lower.
The Northern of Spain shares were not negotiated
to-day as had been expected, owing to the non-
compliance with some formalities.

Asubscription was set on foot some years since at
Montpellier, for a statue of Edouard Adam, a native
of that town, who nearly a century ago invented an
improved method of distilling, which was of immense
benefit to the wine growing districts in which
brandy is made. M.sElillault, when Minister of the
Interior, gave the requisite authority for the erectioe
of the manse in a public place in Montpellier. But
now that the statue is all ready, the present
Minister of the Interior has withdrawn the antho-
riestkes, to the great chagrin of the townspeople.
For this curious reversal of • decision of his pre-
assesor, the present minister gives two reasons.
1. That Edouard Adam was not a man of sufficient
celebrity to deserve a statue ; and 2 (which is pro-
bably the real ground), that Cambsosrie, who was a
native of Montpellier, has never had one.
A writer in a Belgian journal, the Crocodile,
named Hallaux, was sometime since prosecuted at
the request of the French government for a libel
upon Napoleon 111., and was condemned em contu-
macious in default of appearance. He lately ap-
peared to purge his contempt and tabs his trial be-
fore the Amite Court of Brabant. The jury found
him guilty, and he was sentenced to six months'
imprisonment, and a fine of 300 fr. The judgment
recites, as " extenuating circumstances," that the de-
fendant is very young, and that the Crocodile has
bat a small circulation.

I am told that the Journal des Debate has settled
the munificent pension of 6,000er. apes the widow
of M. Itipalt.

VIENNA, WIDNZIDAY.
The latest news received hue gives moon to hope
that the affair of Berri* will be speedily arranged.

"It in known," says a Vienna hitter, " that in
October net Prince Alexander sent one of his con-
fidential counsellors to this city, requesting the
armed intervention of the Austrian government in
his favour, in case the Skaptchiva should meek to
overthrow the order of things established in Service
by treaties. Whatever devotedness to the Prince's
cause may be professed here, no positive premise
was made on the subject, Austria apprehending that
the great European powers, especially Rosen, would
oppose any seek interference."
