GERMANY.

On the 231 inst. four statesmen of the Darmstadt
coalition held a conference at Leipsic. M. DE
PFuRDTEN, President of the Council of Ministers of
Bevaris, was the first to arrive; after him came MM.
DE BEUST and BEHR from Dresden ; and lastly,
Colonel DE MEISEDEB, representative of Bavaria at
the Customs Congress of Berlin. It is said they
have had several meetings, but the subject of their
deliberations has been kept secret. It is said the visit
of the Princes Jonti and ALBERT of Saxony to Birlin
related to a proposed change in the commercial policy
of Saxony.
A letter from Stutgardt says—
"The Congress of the directors of the lines of Ger-
man railways will assemble hero in a few days. Fifty
directors wilt be present at this meeting, at which will
be also present a certain number of official agents repre-
senting several smstlitates of theConfedex Mimi. This meet-
ing will this year have a great importance. The question
is to establish a uniform working on all the liner, and a
regular tariff. The interesting international question:
with regard to re-loading, price of transport, &c , will
be brought forward, and it is important that foreign
lines should be al :o represented at the congress. It n•
said here that the French lines will send an engineer of
the Pouts et Chauseees to represent them. Tho future
junction of the line from Paris to Strasburg with the
Bavarian frontier, moreover, necessitates the presence of
a French agent to support the interests attached to the
future working of the French lines united to the Prus-
sian and German ones."
The Wanderer, of Vienna of the 24th say 4—" The
treaty concluded on the 8 h May in London, between
ng; land, France, Russia, Sweden, and
relative to the succession to the throne of
has been ratified by all the powers, and the
Dry,Aruelinsstmsriisaaik,
exchange of ratifications will take place in London in
the course of this month. The powers which have
not taken part ia the conclusion of this treaty have
received official coramunication of it, with an invita-
tion to adhere to it. The treaties relative to the
I railways, concluded between the Governments of
Austria, the Papal States, Modena, Parme, and
Tuscany, which were signed on the Ist May, and
ratified on the 18th August lest, will be shortly pub-
; lished.”

LONDON, TEURSDAY, JULY 29, 1852.

Among the rumoured Ministerial changes which
have recently excited the popular conjectures as to
the stability or instability of her MAJESTY'S Govern-
ment, it cannot be forgotten that one prevalently
reported, had reference to the Noble Lord at
the head of the Foreign Depertment. According to
this intimation it was understood that the Earl of
Deane. had it in view to remove Lord MALALEsEtraY
td Pala as Ambassador to the Court of Prince Louis
NAPOLEON, and in doing so to send Lord COWLEY on
from the French capital to the British Embassy
at Constantinople. Under this arrangement
the Chief Secretaryship at the Foreign-office in
Downing-street was said to be reserved for our late
Minister to the Sublime Porte—the Lord STBATPOED
R REDCLIFFE. Whether there was any truth in
. these anticipations, it is at least certain that the dis-
tinglila. hed diplomatist last mentioned her MA.-
J2STY'S present advisers iopk to as one of the most
eminent among
the sympathisers with that Adminis-
tration. It becomes, therefore, peculiarly matter of
interest to bear in mind the political principles for
which the
newly-created Peer is known to entertain
feelings of especial predilection. Those principles he
ha, long sines declared by many acts of his
political life,
rhea
by
so that cannot by any possibility
be considered as dubious
those who have watched
.hie long and honourable career as ambassador.
iFor-
tunately, moreover, a very recent occasion was
afforded the Noble Lora
n
of his views upon
which to remove all
doubt whatsoever as to the tendency
the responsibilities
of governmentrrh
refer to was that of the banquet gieve occasion we
given to Lord
STRAFFORD, prior to his departure for England,
by the British and lonian merchants of -
Constantinople. During the course of theee many
interesting' festivities the ex-ambassador addressed
himself to his entertainers in language of
Peculiarly
honourable, and slag we may add of highly satisfac-
tory explicitness. Among other things he observed—
" MY conscience assures me that whenever I have
found reason to take foreign interests into considers.
tit°, I have always kept in view the sacred principle%
of justice and liberalism." Of the accuracy of this
declaration almost every most every act of his diplomatic exist-
ence affords the stronest attestation. "It is

Tne sport to-day, reduced by a couple of walks over,
to seven races, was scarcely so interesting as on Tues-
day, but was remarkable for the extent of the fields for
the two principal events, for one of which, the Stewards'
Cup, no less than thirty- five went to the post, the only
drawbacks were the accident to Sackbut, whose rider's
arm was broken, and a trifling shower towards the close
of the racing. The attendance was fashionable, but in
number below the average on the Goodwood Stakes
day. To-morrow there will be nine or ten races, in-
cluding the Cup, and many other prizes of great value
and interne, to commence at twelve o'clock; should the
weather continue fine we anticipate an immense company.

FRANCE.
It is stated that it was not the intention of the
Government to apply the decree about taking the
oath of allegiance to the President, to general officers
who were in exile. It was only applicable to those
employed at a distance, for instance, Generals Aupick,
Castelbajue, and others, so far as the term granted to
them is concerned. And that consequently there
was no intention of depriving them of their com-

missions.
The C onstitutionnel announces that the French
ship-of-war, Charlemagne, arrived on the 9th at
Smyrna, after being refused the passage of the Dar-
danelles.
The sale of the pictures composing the gallery of
the late Marshal Soult terminated on Saturday even-
ing. The principal pictures sold on that day were—

Cano, 2,800`. ; St. James, by the same, 2,100 r.; a
Female Saint, by Zurblron, 3,200 f. ; another, by the
same, 3,300 f. ; the Communion of a Saint, by the

Holy Family, by Ribero, 9,100 f. ; St. Anthony of
Padua and the Infant Jesus, by Murillo, 12,200 f. ;
the Repentance of St. Peter, by the same, a ;

little more than two feet in height, 62,000 f.; &c.
The sale on that day produced 223,923 f., which added

GERMANY.

The fact that the Prussian Chambers were pro-
rogued, and had disappeared as a Legislature, a few
hours before the Emperor of Russia entered Berlin as
a visitor, has excited some notice and remark. Yet it
was an accident, and nothing else. The prorogation
had been fixed for the middle of May even before
the same period was notified as that of the Em-
peror's arrival ; and it has been evident for a much
longer period that the session could not be con-
tinued with advantage either to the Government
or the country. For six weeks past it has some-
times been difficult to get a House togetherin the
numbers legally necessary to transact business.
Often during the sittings the Deputies would
disappear, compelling the President to suspend
proceedings. Six months of continual work bad
wearied all partieP, especially as the public sittings
are not the largest or most irksome part of the De •
puties' duties ; it is the preliminary labours of the
bureaux and commissions that are the most trying.
Those who augured ill for the continued existence of
the Chambers and for the Constitution generally,
have been a little reassured by the bandeome
acknowledgment of the Deputies' services made by
M. von Manteuffel in the address by which he ad-
journed them. The Government has no real cause of
quarrel with either House. No chamber could have
voted the budget less grudgingly or sanctioned the
present and future taxes more generously. They
Toted one new tax even in the face of a surplus
revenue, and only negatived another because
it involved a positive breach of contract. In
all essential questions the Government is strong in
both houses ; and would be in a far more difficult
position without them than with them. If they are
in any peril, it Is neither from the policy of Russia,
nor the ill-will of its ruler to the constitutional form
of government, but the apathy and indifference of the
mass of the nation.
