SPAIN.

Advices have arrived from Madrid )f the 17th
inst. They state that it was thougjit that the
Ministers who had 'retired had not done so of their'
own accord, but that their retirement had been de-
manded by the President of the Centel' that he
might strengthen his Cabinet in order better to
meet the Cortes. The Minister of the Interior had
published a circular in which he dectares that he
considers diligence, probity, and intell4pnce indis-
pensable in public functionaries.

BELGIUM.
The Central Section charged to exam fine the bud-
get for foreign affairs commissioned one of its mem-
bers to ask the Minister to furnish 'information
relative to the state of the negociations with France
on the subject of the literary convention. The
Minister replied that he had no information to give,
and charged the member to transmit these words,
" Say that I have nothing to reply."
The subject of the extradition of the Polish offi-
cers, naturalised Belgians,
at the req ruest of the
Russian Government, is now being it mutely dis-
cussed by the sections, where it meets vith general
disapproval. The measure is looked upon as a
breach of the law, as a want of national dignity,
and as a subserviency to the Russian G overnment.

GERMANY.
A funeral service for the DUke of 'Wellington
was performed on Thursday, in the garri son church
at Berlin ; it was attended by detachments of all
the troops in garrison in Berlin, the Generals,
officers, and Princes of the Royal Family ; the body
of the hurch and galleries were crowded with every
variety of uniform, Lancers, Artillery, Cavalry of
the Guard, Hussars, and the different regiments
of the line ; the late Duke's oven Prussia Ai regiment,
the 28th, is at present
quartered on the Rhie, and
was not represented.
The communid 1 table was
draped with black cloth, and the st ands of the
lighted alter candles were bound with ; crape. The
decorations were of the amplest kit td, sufficing
only to indicate the event, and, excel) .ting the ad-
dress of the preacher, there was little ii i the service
itself that denoted the occa,,len ; yet ii ; had much
interest for the English present. It vi; Is a faint re-
flection of the grand solenulity being celebrated
almost at the same hour in the 'Cathedral of
st. Paul. It was the last mark of honour
by an old national ally, to one whose n: ame is asso-
ciated with the greatest and most u nited effort
Germany has ever made against a fore sign enemy.
Of the Royal family there were pre sent Prince
Albrecht, Prince Adalbeit Prince Karl, and
Prince George ;
General Wrangel, the 'Commander-
in-Chief of the province, and all the Ge nerals under
his command, also attended The English Minister
lord Bloomfield, is confined to his r oom by illness
d could not attend, but the Embas By was repre-
sented. by Mr. Bligh and ivix.
Norman., the attaches.
Mr. Fay, the Secretary of the Ameri c;u3. Embassy,
also attended the ceremonY. No :ot.ember of the
Austrian Embassy was present.
The sermon was preached by the Military Chap-
lain of the division, M. -+ S
-rains. He took his text
from the third chapter of the Second Book of
Samuel,--
"And the King said to his servants, know ye not
that there is a Prince and a great ~.
man en this day in
Israel." _ . .

--_.
He gave a brief sketch of the late Duke's career ;
his unequalled success and it,,, causes ;
his success
he ascribed to his wonderful talent as a commander
and his stedfast and indomitable perseverance as a
man ; but he was also suPPerted by the conscious-
ness of contending for ajust cause during his many
conflicts, and after they ha,d ceased his simple and
upright life, and his sense of piety, were as re-
markable as his brilliant trj
untplis : he must have
felt during his career that "God_ was with him."

SWEDEN.
The bulletin issued on . the wonting of the 12th
is as follows :
"His Majesty, whose feverish state again increased
considerably in the afternoon, had another attack of
bleeding at the nose in the evening_ This recurred se-
veral times in the course of the night, and hindered his
Majesty from sleeping. In consequence of this, the
Royal patient is considerably weaker than before. At
four o'clock this afternoon, no improvement whatever
had taken place in the King's State, and serious appre-
hensions are entertained.
"The state of the Princess Eugenie appears to be
somewhat improving, though the progress is so slow that
it is almost imperceptible. The fever has subsided, and
there is less prostration of strength."

Last evening the hon. and learned member for Sheffield
entered the house shortly after its sitting, and took the
oaths along with several other hon. members. lie
looked much better than when last seen in public, but
there was a lack of that energy and activity in his man-
ner which characterised him during the greater part of
last session.
