DOUBLE

ITS PRESENT SIZE.

The patronage and support hitherto accorded
to the NORTHERN DAILY TIMES, has rendered

it necessary for the Proprietors to enter into
arrangements for its speedy Permanent Enlarge-
ment to Double its present size. Until this is
effected, Double Numbers will be issued whenever

a pressure of news, or an influx of advertisments,
shall render it necessary. In making this an-
nouncement, the Proprietors, grateful for the flat-
tering encouragement they have already received,
avail themselves of the opportunity to state that
they will spare neither pains nor expense to render
the NORTHERN DAILY TIMES the most accurate

and earliest authority upon all matters of news—
Political, General, Monetary, Commercial, and
Maritime. The new arrangements, when com-
pleted, will impose upon the Proprietors the
necessity of ceasing to supply extra Slips to
subscribers, but no increase will be made in the
rate of subscription, which is now 3Ss. per annum.

THE DAY'S NEWS

The nearer we approach to thn meeting of
Parliament, the more critical becomes the state of
political affairs upon the Continent. Every day
adds to the fear that another rupture will take
place, and that when this is so, that Great Britain
and France will not be found fighting side by side,
as in the Crimea, but that, in all probability, our
new ally will be that treacheaous power, the
Emperor of Austria. Day after day some of the
leading Paris paper have been villifying England
and her motives, and by every means in their
power endeavouring to foment the worst of feelings
between the Emperor Napoleon and Queen
Victoria. It is true that, within the last few days,
a less offensive tone has been adopted by the
splenetic journals in question. At the same time, if
the articles alluded to did not meet with the
approbation of the Emperor and his Cabinet, why
were the journals in question not " continued " in
the usual way, and told that a repitition of the
offence would subject each and all to severe pains
and penalties. Considering the arbitrary character
of the Emperor, his positive and headstrong
actirse of action, when he has determined upon a
,certain line of conduct, it is impossible for us to
come to any other conclusion than that he
indirectly approved of the mischievous writings in
the Moniteur, Constitutionnel, and Gazette de France.
We would fain indulge the hope that a better
feeling will manifest itself in France, and that the
" alliance" will yet remain permanent and cordial
between the two countries. We observe that
fresh rumours are again afloat in Paris that
certain ministerial changes are inevitable, and
particularly as regards the Minister of Foreign
Affairs. It is said that M. de Persigny has
recently been to Compiegne, and there had more
than one interview with the Emperor, anti that at
the Cabinet Council held last week, the alliance
with England, and the injury done to it, was one
of the serious topics discussed.
There is a complete dearth of news from other
quarters of the Continent. From Naples we learn
that one of the first acts of the King, after the
ministers had left, was to send a private rescript.
to the Ministers of Police, intimating that the sub
jects of England and France were now under his

protection,- and commanding every precaution
against their being insulted. We have given the

escript in another column. Manifestoes had
been ,jrculated throughout Naples, advising peace-
rations in support of liberal institutions.

contains a decree re-establishing the press-laws of
1815. Amongst other things newspapers are
bound to transmit a copy of their papers to the public
prosecutors, two hours at least before distributing
them. We also learn from the same paper that
" the Government having received some numbers
of the Paris journal, the Preese, in wich re
inserted articles signed by Patricio de la Escosura,
,ex-minister of the crown, and loaded with favours
,and decorations by her Majesty—articles containing
grave offences against the Queen, and against the
King, has resolved to transmit these numbers to
the tribunals, in order that a prosecution may be
instituted against the author. For that purpose the
necessary orders have already been given, the act
being, according to the existing law, subject to the
Spanish tribunals.. No one can doubt that the
