SWITZERLAND.

BERNE, SEPT. 17.

A public) petition has been addressed to the
National Assembly, demanding a revisio❑ of the
Federal Constitution, the provisions of which are
opposed to the conclusion of a treaty of commerce
with France, in order that such treaty may be con-
cluded in a constitutional manner. The revision
to be obtained by an appeal to the people of
Switzerland.

The Government of Berne has given its sanction,
with certain reservations, to the statutes of the
Credit Mobilier Europeen.

THE BOMBAY MAIL.

By the arrival of the Bombay mail we have re-
ceived files of papers from Bombay to the 23.1 of
August, and from Calcutta to the 15th of August.
We take the following summary of news from the
Bombay Gazette of the 23d of August :
'` It is reported that the Secretary of State has
been making inquiries regarding the differences be.
tween the indigo planters and the ryots in Bengal.
lie desires to know whether they have returned to
their usual work or not, and also what the produce
of indigo is in the districts and whether it has
reached its former average or nit.
There seems to be a probability that the late fron.
tier we r will not be quite so expensive an item in,
the Budget as was expected,it having been rumoured
that the property of the rebel Mahomed Shaffee,
which has been confiscated, amounts to ten lacs of
rupees. There is, however, some difficulty in the
way of realising the money, as the bulk of it is
said to have been left in Bombay by Mahomed
Shaffee on returning from his pilgrimage to Mecca.
" Sir Hugh Rose has requested permission to be
allowed to form his camp at Cawnpore and to inspect
the military stations east of the Ganges, but it is
nevertheless believed that his excellency is anxious
to leave for Europe in March.
" A brigade of Horse Artillery and eight regi-
ments of the line are expected to go home this
season, four of the latter in course of relief, and four
in consequence of the threatening aspect of affairs
in Europe and the drain upon the revenue in India.

" Greet differences of opinion still prevail in the
Bhootan Durbar on the subject of the answer to be
given to the Governor-General's letter, the Dhurm
and Deb Raj advising submission and an apology
for their treatment of the Mission. The Toungso
Penlow is still fur war, and opposes the peace party.
He says that the British want to obtain land
for the cultivation of tea, coffee, and cotton ;
Bhootan cannot be taken, it having been
prophesied by the Shasters that it must rex
main independent for ever! The apology will
be written, however, notwithstanding all this.
We have since heard that the Dhurm and Deb lt,j
have dispatched a messenger to the Lieut.-Governor
of Bengal, with presents, to pave the was for sub•
mission, bat that he was stopped at Paro by the
Penlow, and all the presents taken from him, when
he was allowed to proceed, minus the presents.
" From Affghanistan we learn that a reconciliation
has taken place between the Ameer and his brother
the Sirdar Uzful Khan, who sued for pardon. He
was so much alarmed that he was afraid to ap-
proach the presence of the Ameer, and it was not
until the latter sent a kinsman to him with a
Koran that he could be induced to do so. Valu.
ableKhillats were exchanged between them, and the
Amecr took over the troops of the penitent Sirdar,
and after ordering their arrears of pay to be cleared
off, sent them on to Cabal. It appears that Uzful
Khan was glad to come to any terms with the
Ameer, as through his oppression the people of
Balk and his own army were so much against him
that large numbers of his troops were deserting daily
and going over to the Ameer. We have since heard
that there is a rumour prevalent that the Ameer
has made prisoners of Uz fat Khan and his brothers,
and sent them to Cabui.
