PRUSSIA

We have.despatches from Berlin to the 3rd inst.,
which inform us, that at St..-Petersburg, the Mus-
covite, or war party, appears to be on!tho ascendant.
The appointment of Prince ,Mentschiltoff 'to be-
Governeigeneral of Cronstadt, is considered a.,
decided proof of this.. The- report is• confirmed,
that General Mouravieff will replace Prince Gorts-
chakoff in the Crimea. The Czar is showering
honoui-s on the general, which is another
triumph for • • the Muscovite party. The
Prussian cabinet exhibits great uneasiness
at the independent attitude assumed by Bavaria'.
and Saxony. Baron •de • Seebach, who•represents
those Powers, is felt to be treated as a principal'
in the negociation from which Prussia is shut out.-
The Pr'us'sian` Cabinet plumed 'itself on having
seized on the headship "of Germany by its neu-
trality, and now sees Au•stiiii. 'an'd the .Secondary
Powers in the closest union, The. state of Prince
Paskiewitsch has again-becoine dangerous.
A letter:froth •Rerlin; of the 3lst,7mentions:. that.
the propositions presented to Russia by- France'{
England,- a nd. Austria, will . be communicated
officially to the representatives of the: various
Powers as soon as the'reception . they meet with
from the Russian Government-is known. It is
probable that by this they have been so communi-
cated. When peace is made Russia will be invited
by the Allies to obtain fkona the. Ottoman,crovern-
ment the emancipation of the Rayahs, and the
securing.to them their privileges.'

By a despatch, :dated Madrid, JO, 2, we learn

presented a new demand for the establishment of
a Credit Mobilier on the part of MM. Prost and
Co., and of sixteen other banking firms of Paris
and the departMents, as also of several Madrid
and Paris capitalists. The prayer has been sub-
nate& to the same commission that is charged
wits the examination of the Pereire project. The

French Government, and the measures it had:
adopted along the frontiers 't6 prevent thaCarlista

the amicable relations existing between' the two
countries.

TICKET-OF-LEAVE MEN.—A number of the inhabitants
of Natal have petitioned the Queen that convicts, not being
ticket-of-leave men, may be sent out to be crtmloyed on'the
imn.ovement of the harbour; and on other public works,
accompanied at the same time by a sufficient force of
troops to guard and controul the convicts, and protectthe
free inhabitants. A counter petition, deprecating the
introduction of convicts into the colony, has also been
numerously signed.

remains of the deceased Ann add Walter Palmer were,
upon their exhumation, conveyed from the family vault to
the Talbot Inn, at Rugeley, and opened, in the presence
of the coroner and jury, in' the commercial room of the
inn. The coffin of .Mrs. Palmer, made of oak, was
first opened. Having been buried a long time, and
the gaseous exhalations being able to escape through
the porous wood, tho corps was comparatively
dry, and the smell educed endurable. On the removal
of the
