PRANCE.

A letter from Colmar says—" An event of great
gravity has just heppened, tending to still more
complicate the affair of the Comptoir-Comineroiai
of the Haut-Rhin and of the Paluis d'A.uteuil, con•
nected with it. M, Jean Kf-iner, considered a ve-y
we6lthy man, has been arrested and confined in the
prison of this place. The examining magistrate and
M. Scalumberger, substitute of the Procureur Im-
perial, soon after left the town for Gonsbach, for
the purpose of there soeliing for the confirmation of
certain charges which have been brought against
that opulent manufacturer."

A fire broke out three days back in the village of
Contrevoz (Ain) wnich burnt with such violence
rhat before it could be got under, 41 inhabited
houses, 38 stables, 32 barns, and a number of other
buildings with ad they contained were destroyed.
The greater part of the houses being thatched, the
flames spread with frightful rapidity. This disaster
was caused by the imprudence of a mountebank
who sent up a balloon with lighted spirits of wine,
which Jell on one of the roofs. He has since taken
to flight, but is closely sought for in order that he
may be punished. Forty-nine families, composed
of 152 persons, have bean reduced to misery by this
calamity. The Emperor on hearing of the disaster
sent 1,000 fr. for the relief of the sufferers.

Ttio Austrian Embassy at Paris has sent the fol-
lowing communication to the journals:—"The
Morning Post, returning to the subject of a pie-
tended correspondence exchanged between the Ca-
binets of 'Vienna, Berlin, and Sr. Petersburg, speaks
of a private letter which Count do Itt,,chberg is said
to have addressed, on the 7th Feb. last, to Prince de
Metternich, on the subject of the rights which the
conquest of Schleswig would confer on the German
Powers, and of the policy which they intended to
follow in face of the attitude assumed by the non-
German Governments. The Austrian Embassy is
able to give a formal contradiction to the assertions
of the English paper. The letter which it makes
known to the public has never existed."
