FRANCE.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
This evening the King of Sardinia attends the
grand fete in his honour at the Hotel de Ville.
At the review yesterday the Emperor presented
to the King of Sardinia the military medal, saying
that he could not allow him to present himself to
the French army without that honourable dis-
tinction.
. .

The Afoniteur contains a list, approved of by
the Emperor, of 255 persons to whom 3 gold and
252 silver medals were awarded in the course of
the quarter ending 30th September last, for having
distinguished themselves in saving persons in dan-
ger of perishing from drowning, fire, &c.
A letter from Kamiesh, of the 11th, in the Mo-
niteur de lu Flotte, says: —" There has just taken
place at Kinbourn an incident which shows what
prudence ought to be employed by the French in
their excursions on the territory of the enemy.
Three French officers of the fort, one of whom was
the surgeon of the Vautour, were walking quietly
on the isthmus which connects the spit of Kinbourn
with the main land, when at a short distance from
the French outposts they were all of a sudden
pounced on by a band of Cossacks and carried off.
The whole affair took place so rapidly that there
was no possibility of rendering assistance."

SPAIN,

We have received the Madrid journals of the
23d. The Gazette denies that there have been any
disturbances at Lugo. It contains a royal decree
sanctioning the bill which fixes the force of the
army at 70,000 men ; also a royal order regulating
the manner in which a portion of the proceeds of
the sale of ecclesiastical property shall be employed
for the benefit of the clergy. Extensive inunda-
tions had taken place in the province of Valencia ;
and some caused by the overflow of the Jucar had
committed great ravages. The treasury of the
Public Debt had paid all demands on it, and was
prepared to pay all that might be made. The
Infant Don Henry, brother of the King, had re-
ceived authorisation to return to Spain, and was
on his way to Madrid. A conspiracy amongst the
prisoners in the gaol of Burgos had been disco-
vered ; they intended to escape and to join an
insurgent band of Carlists. The disturbances at
Valencia are represented to have been of no im
portance.

THE BALTIC FLEET.

KIEL, Nov. 26.—0 n Friday last the Lightning
left the fleet, on her way to England direct. On
Sunday the Vulture arrived from Faro, bringing

word that Admiral Baynes, with a part of his
squadron, had arrived there.

The weather in the Gulf of Finland still con-
tinues mild for the season ; but in the Gulf of
Bothnia it has been very sharp. The Dragon was
frozen in a few days ago a little inside the Aland
Islands, but soon broke her way out with her
paddles. I hear she has made some valuable prizes.
To-day another division of the fleet parted from
the rest, and has gone on its way to England. It
consisted of the Nile and Colossus, who started in
the morning, followed by the Royal George about
noon. The latter left the bay magnificently, under
both sail and steam. Other ships are expected to
leave in a few days.
The weather is generally fine and frosty, with
occasional slight showers of snow or sleet.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOLPE, Nov. 19.—Within the last
five days cholera has again made its appearance at
Scutari with considerable virulence.

General Smith, commanding the Turkish Con-
tingent, has arrived here from the Dardanelles on
his way to Varna.

Their write from Erzeroum under date of the 7th
inst., that up to the 31st October all was well at
Kars. General Mouravieff had treated the garrisoa
to a review of his army, which they report to con-
sist of 16 battalions, each 400 or 500 men strong,
three regiments of Dragoons, two of Cossacks, and
40 guns.

The Algiers and Agamemnon, are here. The
latter have gone up above bridge to get fitted with
a new maintopmast, in lieu of the one whilh was
damaged at Sebastopol on the 17th of October,
1854. The St. Jean d'Acre, Hannibal, Princess
Royal, Highflyer, and Sphinx are daily expected
down on their way to Malta. It is said that the
rest of the fleet will remain in the Black Sea.

We hear that a body of English or lonian police
are coming out here to look after the highways and
byways of Pera and Galata.
The 11th Hussars are to pass the winter in the
Crimea. All the other British cavalry regiments
will come down here. Their land transport has

DENMARK.

—— - -
The Danish Government has at length taken a
resolution with respect to the fortifications of
Flensburg. In 1851 a mixed commission examined
the territorial rights of this fortress. The opinions
of the Danish members were contrary to those of
the German delegates, who were willing to pre-
serve the place as a federal fortress. The Govern-
ment proposed to adopt a medium resolution, and
to raze the fortress to the ground. The work of
destruction had been commenced when a pamph-
let, written by an old soldier, roused the atten-
tion of the Germanic military commission. It ap-

pears that it has now been decided to destroy only
the works before the Eider in the Duchy of Schles-
wig, leaving a simple tete de pont ; but that the
principal fortifications in Holstein, belonging to
the Confederation, will be preserved. The head-
quarters of the military commandant of Schleswig
and Jutland will be established at Flensburg.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
This evening the King of Sardinia attends the

At the review yesterday the Emperor presented
to the King of Sardinia the military medal, saying
that be could not allow bim to present himself to

COURT OF LIEUTEN ANTCY THE CITY

OF LONDON.

A very numerously-attended meeting of this body,
specially convened by the Lord_ Mayor, was held in the
Inner Chamber of the Guildhall, on Tuesday last.
Amongst those present we noticed Sir Moses Monte-
fiore, the Chairman of the East India Company, Colonel
Wilson, Colonel Sykes, Alderman Wire, Mr. A. Moore,
Deputy Dakin, Deputy Obbard, Deputy Lott, Mr. An-
dertoo Mr. Toker, Mr. Josiah Wilson, Mr. Under-
SheridStone, Mr. Jonathan Key, Mr. Hughes Hughes,
Mr. Edward Wilson, Mr. Kennard, Mr. Butterworth,
several directors of the Bank and South Sea House,
and many of the leading merchants of the City.
The LORD MAYOR, upon taking the chair, said that
so soon as he had ascertained her Majesty's wishes that
every possible mark of respect should be shown to his
Majesty the King of Sardinia, he had lost no time iu
convening the different privileged bodies in order that
they might have an opportunity of giving expression to
their feelings on the interesting occasion of the visit of
that monarch to the city. (Hear.) He was sure he W3J
only carrying out the wishes of the gentlemen he saw
around him in calling them together for that purpose,
and although the notice had been short, it was gratifying
to him to see so large an assemblage. (Hear.)
Mr. A. MOORE, in a very able speech, moved an ad•
dress for presentation to the King of Sardinia, which
was seconded by Sir M. MONTEFIORE, and carried
unanimously.

Windsor, to ascertain his royal will and pleasure as to
the time and place for the reception of the address,
which, it was intimated, would most likely be at
Windsor.

It
Was ordered that no member should attend at the
presentation unless in uniform.
Several vacancies were declared for lieutenants in the
Royal Regiments, commissions having been given in the
line, owing to the number of men who had volunteered
for that service. The colonel stated that 170 men had
joined within the last few weeks, and that, although an
additional number was about to join, the regiment kept
up its full complement of men.
A vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor terminated the
proceedings.

The dress of the Medical Staff Corps consists of a blue
cloth tunic, edged with white cord, grey stand-up col-
lar, cuffs grey; the stewards, by way of distinction, have 1
the buttons on a wLite facing ; trousers the same colour,
grey cord down the side. A blue cap, tied behind, a

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOLPE, Nov. 19.—Within the last
five days cholera has again made its appearance at
Scutari with considerable virulence.

General Smith, commandinc, the Turkish Con-
tingent, has arrived here from the Dardanelles on
his way to Varna.
They write from Erzeroum under date of the 7th
inst., that up to the 31st October all was well at
Kars. General Mouravieff had treated the garrison
to a review of his army, which they report to con-
sist of 16 battalions, each 400 or 500 men strong,
three regiments of Dragoons, two of Cossacks, and
40 guns.
The Algiers and Agamemnon are here. The
latter have gone up above bridge to get fitted with
a new maintopmast, in lieu of the one which was
damaged at Sebastopol on the 17th of October,
1854. The St. Jean d'Acre, Hannibal, Princess
Royal, Highflyer, and Sphinx are daily expected
down, on their way to Malta. It is said that the
rest of the fleet will remain in the Black Sea.

We hear that a body of English or lonian police
are coming out here to look after the highways and
byways of Pera and Galata.
The 11th Hussars are to pass the winter in the
Crimea. AU the other British cavalry regiments

DENMARK.

The Danish Government has at length taken a
resolution with respect to the fortifications of
Flensburg. In 1851 a mixed commission examined
the territorial rights of this fortress. The opinions
of the Danish members were contrary to those of
the German delegates, who were willing to pre-
serve the place as a federal fortress. The Govern-
ment proposed to adopt a medium resolution, and
to raze the fortress to the ground. The work of
destruction had been commenced when a pamph-
let, written by an old 'soldier, roused the atten-
tion of the Germanic military commission. It ap-
pears that it has now been decided to destroy only
the works before the Eider in the Duchy of Schles-
wig, leaving a sir tete de pont ; but that the
principal fortifications in Holstein, belonging to
the Confederation, will bo preserved. The head-
quarters of the military commandant of Schleswig
and Jutland will be established at Flensburg.

ITALY.

A letter from Milan of the 23d ult., in the Ger.
man Journal of Frankfort, says :
"One evening last week a commissary of police pre-
sented himself in the Casino Nobili, which is frequented
by Austrian officers, and asked one of the officers to
place at his disposal twenty men to arrest a band of
conspirators, who were at the moment assembled in a
neighbouring house. At the head of the men he wont
to the house, and called out for the doors to be opened ;
but no reply being returned, he caused them to be beaten
open by the but-ends of the muskets. About twenty
persons were arrested. At the same time a number of
papers and documents were seized ; they proved that a
secret society of about sixty persons existed, and that it
had prepared a plan of insurrection. Amongst the
members of the society are six persons who are is the
service of the government, and on that account they
will have to expiate severely their Iriminal enterprise.
It is not yet known whether or not the plot has other
ramifications."

A letter from Milan, of the 28th ult. in the
Opinions of Turin, states that several political arrests
have been effected at Como, especially among the lower
orders. A conspiracy is obscurely hinted at as being the
cause of these arrests, but nothing certain has been as
yet ascertained on the point. The same letter states that
when Marshal Radetzky heard of the death of Queen
Maria Adelaide of Sardinia, he burst into tears, having
known her from her infancy.

GERMAN CONFEDERATION

The Frankfort Journal of the 31st January pub-
lishes the following
"'The united committee of the Diet held a sitting yes-
day, at which a resolution for the preparation for 'war'
of the federal contingents, within as short a delay as
possible, was unanimously adopted. The proposition
which led to this resolution emanated originally from
Bavaria, and was unanimously adopted in consequence
of the adhesion of Austria, who regarded it as the prin-
ciple of mobilisation' carried out. Austria having
adhered to it, there will not now be a formal vote in the
Diet on 'mobilisation,'. and the question whether the
majority of the Diet would have adopted that proposi-
tion remains undecided. In the committee, it is true,
it did not appear likely, from the first, to obtain a
majority ; but the majority of the Diet is not the same
as the majority of the committee.
"The resolution of the committee taken yesterday has
slown, in the first instance, that the States of the Cfn-
federation were not opposed in principle to the Austrian
proposition. It was also shown that Austria, in her
loyalty and straightforwardness, i I not wish to make a
question of form a question of principle, or to push her
disagreement with Prussia to the last extremes, and to
endangur the existence of the Gentian Coufe,deration,
as
some Prussian journals have insinuuted."

SOUTH-EASTERN.

The following circular has been issued to the pro-
prietors of the South-Eastern Railway by Mr. James
Macgregor :
" It is my duty to inform yon that my term in office as
one of your dirogtors expires in March, and that I have
not the intention to offer myself as a candidate for re-
election. _ _

" You will have at your disposal my seat at the board,
and the seats also of three of tho directors whose term in
office likewise expires in March, and it will be obvious to
yon, as the board consists of nine directors, that the four
new directors whom you may choose to elect, combining
with any one of the five directors who remain in office,
will be enabled by their majority of votes to control the
affairs of the company.
" I therefore earnestly hope that in the election to the
four vacant seats it may be your good fortune to secure the
services of gentlemen of capacity, intelligence, and integ-
rity, to conduct your affairs, and that you will not lose the
opportunity of placing the management in hands worthy of
so great a trust.
" I must state to you that I have viewed the present
management with the gravest regret ; let me plead as my
excuse fer making this observation more than ten years'
arduous and faithful service in your interest, and sincere

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-.-Colonel de Than, aide-de-camp
to the King of Bavaria, has arrived here on a spe
cial mission from the Oourt of Bavaria, and had
the honour of delivering an autograph letter from
his Sovereign to the King the day before yesterday.
This document, it is understood, tends to further
mediation, and, if possible, approachment, between
the Tieina and Berlin Cabinets, the latter of
which appears to have acquired additional strength
from the rejection of the Austrian demand at
Frankfort, and increased hopes that this rejection
will lead to retrocession on the part of Austria.
It is confirmed that France is negotiating with
Austria for furnishing the latter with a subsidiary
array of 150,000 men, the demand made by France
to march that body by the shortest road through
the Prussian dominions, has been rejected by the
Berlin Cabinet in firm and energetic language.
All eyes are now turned with the greatest atten-
tion towards London, as it is generally felt that the
composition of the new ministry—the news of the
resignation this morning being known here by the
telegraph already—will not fail to have a powerful
influence on the future policy of Prussia ; and, in-
deed, the conviction is in everybody's mind that
the plot is thickening, and the moment for decision
not far distant. On this decision depends the weal
or woe of Prusaia.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SEW.

SIR,—It appears that in the endeavours made and
making to form a Governuaentithat the principal mem-
bers of the late Cabinet have been applied to for their
co-operation, except the Duke of Newcastle. Has not
the unprecedented majority of 157 in a want of confi-
dence been against the Ministry as a body, and not an
individual? Why should his Grace the noble Duke be
thus ♦ictimised, and sacrificed to an unprincipled plot
and intrigue, and the faelts of other departments, the
commissariat, &c., recently allied to the War Minister,
be visited on him ! And let me ask, when has the high
and important office of Colonial Secretary been so ably
and efficiently filled, at a very e►entful crisis, as by the
Duke of Newcastle ; or what memberof the late Cabinet
has devoted so energetically and zealously his abilities to
the public service as his Grace has done I The duties of
a War Minister were new and complicated, and required
a ♦ery able old soldier or foreign diplomatist. This
Lord John Russell well knew, when he was a party to I
the Duke of Newcastle's being Minister at War, to va-
cate the colonies for his friend Sir George Grey.
Hoping you will insert these few lines in your valu-
able columns, I am, &c.,

WEST COAST OF AFRICA.

PLYMOUTH, SigNDAY.
The African Steam IgravigationCompany's mail-
ship Bacchante, Commander Drink;, arrived here
last night with tho mails from the west coast of
Africa.

Her dates are—Fernando Po, Nov. 29th ; Came-
roans, 30th ; Lagos, Dec. 9th ; Cap• Coast Castle,
13th ; Monrovia, 23d ; Sierra Leone, Jan. Gth ;
Toneriffe, 20th ; and Madeira, 24th. Her cargo
consists of palm oil, ivory, gum, pepper, cochineal,
and wax ; also, 3,000 ounces of gold dust and a
quantity of specie.
H. M. brig Dolphin was at anchor off Accra,
Nov. 21 ; the Cray. was at Lagos Nov. 24, 'and
sailed for Fernando Po Deo. 8 ; the Antelope ar-
rived at Lagos Dec. 9 ; the Prometheus was at
Sierra Leone ; the Ferret was off the river Pongos ;
the Britomart sailed on a cruise, Dec. 30, from
Sierra Leone ; the Pleiad, steamer, and brig Bloa-
dine were at Fernando Po.

The Pleiad (s. s.) returned from exploring the
rivers Kivora and Tshadds. Noa. 7, having been in
the rivers 118 days, without any loss of the crew.
The expedition has been very successful in geogra-
phical and general research, but was unable to ob-
tain any late information respecting Drs. Barth
and Vogel.
The trading part of the voyage under Mr. Taylor
seems to have answered badly. The rivers were
generally healthy. Everything was quiet, but
trade very slack.
Kosuko had finally agreed to abandon the slave
trade, and to reside at Eppi, to the east of Lagos.
Danish Accra is now quiet, but the effects of the
late disturbances are still al parent. Various causes
of discontent, chiefly connected with the application
of the poll tax, are exhibited by the people.
Bishop Vidal and Archdeacon Graf have been on
a visitation to the stations at Abbeokuta and Yoruba
country.
Slaving is going on briskly in the neighbourhood
of Hivida, and Porto Novo, and many shipments
have taken place during the last eight or ton
weeks.

The Bishop of Sierra Leone died Dee. 24 from
African fever, contracted during his visitation to
the Yoruba country.
Affairs up the Malokori were still unsettlod.
