PARIS, TRUMADAT EVLNINO.

The Neufchatel Conference did not sit to-day, and
I understand that no time is fixed for the next meet-
ing. It is very confidently affirmed that both the
Prinainn and Swiss Plenipotentiaries feel themselves

under the necessity, in Consequence of the eourse
iehiChthrniTa hive taken, to refer to their ic—sZji-eitive
governments for further instructions. Although
nothing certain is known, doubts are now
very naturally felt about the authenticity of
the conciliatory instructions which the Bel-
gian journals, in spitelof repeated contradictions
. .

from Berlin, penuated in attributing to the Prusaian
government. One of these journals, the lade-
pendance, now sap that since the court of Prussia
may continue to make difficulties without incurring
danger, since by the release of the rebels, at the
pressing instigation of Napoleon 111., all danger of
bloodshed is at an end, it is to be expected that the
King will procrestinate. This mast dishonourable
hypothesis is unfortunately not too improbable to be
utterly discredited.
The Grand Duke Constantine, of Russia, is fully
expected at Toulon from the 20th to the 23rd. A
large nasal force will be assembled in the roads be-
fore that period. A division which left Brest on the
9th, under the command of Rear-Admiral I,avaud,
is daily expected to rally Admiral Trehouart's flag
at Toulon.

The reception of Count de Falloux, the new mem-
ber of the French Academy, who was elected several
months since to the chair which became vacant on
the decease of Count Nloff, took place to-day. The
rather small theatre of the institute was, as usual
on such occasions, as full as it could hold, the audi-
ence being in great part composed of fashionable
ladies in full morning dress.
The Bourse has been again somewhat depressed,
but without any considerable fall. The Bente de-
clined 23e. for cash and sc. for account, closing at
70fr. 23c. and 70fr. 60c. klobilier left off at nearly
yesterday's price. The railway market had rather
an upward tendency, but the movement was checked
by frequent sales for cash, which were attributed to
the fact that several companies are in want of money
to pay their dividends due on April 1. The
Northern was the only line in great favour: it rose
20fr. Orleans, Eastern, and Southern, rase 2fr. 50e.
each. A good many purchases were made in the
Southern on the news from the western pries that
great preparations are making by shipowners for the
transport of goods to Bordeaux in anticipation of
the opening of the railway from Bordeaux to Cate.
Mediterranean fell 13fr. ; Lyons, 10fr.; Western,
7fr..50e.; Grand Central, 2fr. 30c. ; and St. Ram-
bort, 12fr. aoc. The close of the Bourse was very
flat.

SPAIN.

The Pays says that a private letter from Cadiz
announces that the first division of the Spanish
squadron has received orders to prepare for sea, and
will set sail for liavannah on March 28.
The Hein Autwrafirs says that Spain will not
resort to hostile measures unless the Mexican go-
vernment shall show itself unreasonable.
