the answer to be given to the Prussian declaration of i

the Ist inst., as on the bases to be adopted for coming
to an understanding with Prussia on the propositions
made by her. The states of the coalition have en-
gaged to make common cause hi this negotiation with
Prussia, consequently the reply to the declaration of
the Ist July has lost all real importance."
The Emperor of AUSTRIA gave several audiences
at Pesth on the 13th, and in the evening attended
the
Hungarian theatre. The inhabitants had a pro-
menade with torches in honour of his MAJESTY. The
EMPEROR was the next morning to leave forSemlin
by steamer."
The Austrian journal, the Wanderer, says—" Se-
veral European powers have already accepted the pro-
position of the British Government to convoke a
congress at London, for the purpose of coming to
some understanding about the regulation of the gold
currency. It is said that France, Denmark, Sweden,
Spain, and Portugal, have agreed to the proposal.
The Congress will not commence its sittings before
November next, but a statistical office is to; be esta-
blished for the preparatory labours."
'We learn from Frankfort that the annual demo-
cratic file has gone off very quietly. The number
of democrats who attended was considerably less than
last year. The meeting was held in the forest, near
the town.

The National Gazette of Berlin states that the ne-
gotiations between the Prussian and French Govern-
ments for the protection of literary property have been
resumed.

Wa read in the Prussian Gazette of the 17th :
" Several journals have stated that the Prussian Go-
vernment had abandoned the policy that it had pro-
claimed on the customs question. All that has been
said on this subject is unfounded."

In the sitting of ITALY.
14th, the Minister of Grace and Justice read a Royal
decree proroguing the present session of Parliament to
the Piedmontese Senate, of the
the 18th of November. The same decree was read
to the Chamber of Deputies by the Minister of the
Interior.
The Gazette de Bede states that the French Em-
bassy in Berne applied to the Federal Council to pre-
vent the expulsion of M. TRIERS, and that the Coun-
cil answered that it entertained no intention of
executing any such design.
The Pied-nontese Gazette, of the 16th, announces
the complete recovery of the Queen of SARDINIA from
the effects of the late miscarriage.
The Official Journal of the Two Sicilies, of the 7th,
contains a royal decree entrusting the Lyceum of
Salerno to the Jesuits.
The Risorgimento of Turin (a Ministerial organ),
of the 16th, states that the address of the Arch-
bishops and &hops of the kingdom to the Piedmon-
tese Senate against the Civil Marriage Bill cannot
be taken into consideration by the Senate, not having
been written in the form of a petition. The first
signature to the document is that of Monsignor
FEANZONI) the exiled Archbishop of Turin. •

GREECE.
We have received intelligence from Athens to the
7th inst. The Monk CHRISTOPHOROS still evaded
the search made after him. The agitation which had
prevailed, was gradually subsiding. The Courrier
d thenes of the 7th says—
" M. Persiani, chargd d'affaires of Russia, has ad-
dressed to the Minister of Foreign Affairs a note in
which he asks for explanations relative to a domiciliary
visit which had been made in the house of Father
CEconomos, a: Russian subject. It is said that the
note expresses surplice at such a stop being taken
with respect to a person enjoying public conside-
ration, and aAis to t e informed of the result of the
preposition. The answer of the Government is
saiu to have been that the visit in question was made in
virtue of a regular warrant from the examining magis-
trate of Patras; that, according to the Greek law, such
measures were adopted alike against foreigners and
natives, whenever the proper authorities considered such
a course necessary in order to discover an offending
party; that, According to that law also, the conduct of
such a matter was essentially secret, from which it fol-
lowed that nothing could be communicated until the
affair, after the preliminary investigation was over, had
been sent before the Chamber of the Council, and that,
consequently, the Government could not at that moment
satisfy the application of the charge d'affaires. Father
CEconomos, it is said, is implicated in the affair of the
Monk Christophoros."
