FRANCE.

The ilioniteur has the following with regard to
the Turkish loan—" Letters from Constantinople, of
the 15th of October, announce that the Porte has
decidedly refused the ratification of the loan nego-
tiated some weeks ago in London and in Paris. This
news is alone exact of all that has been brought
forward on the subject of this loan affair."
The official journal contains a good many appoint-
ments in different branches of the magistracy. There
ia a batch of decorations of the Legion of Honour,
and the military medal is confered on several
marines.

the Senate to the same effect, amount to 586, having
57,470 signatures; 198 of the recantly-renewed
etlunicipal Councils of the Loire Inferieure, have
sent addresses praying for the Empire. In the
Maine-et-Loire fresh addresses arrive at the Pre-
fecture every day; the number already amounts
to 200.
We read in the Constitutionnel :—" Since the Go-
vernment has determined to extirpate bandittism in
Corsica, the local administration has redoubled its
activity and energy. Important results have been
already obtained. It is known that two formidable
bandits, named Padovana and Framoni, have been,
the first, killed in an encounter with the gendarmes,
and the second, arrested. Framoni, in particular,
was one of the most dangerous offenders that could
be met with. He is shortly to be tried by the Court
of Assizes. We learn that two other bandits, Domi-
nique Cesari, surnamed Sperato, and Cesar Bartoli,
have been lately killed by the gendarmes. Sperato
was a man of extreme audacity and almost superhu-
man strength, who had succeeded in terrifying the
neighbourhood of Spartena, his principal haunt. He
was the type of the bandit who hired out his carbine
to the vengeance of others. Bartell explored the ar-
rondissement of Corta, and they were together when
surprised by the gendarmerie. They made a despe-
rate resistance, and some of the men attacking them
were wounded. The letters, which inform us of these
results, state that in consequence of the determination
of the authorities to punish severely whatever persons
harbour bandits in Corsica, these latter are left com-
paratively defenceless, and can in consequence be
more easily laid hands on. Several of them, in de-
spair of being able to continue their odious occupation,
nave asked leave to be allowed to proceed to Sardinia.
l'he news of the death of Sperato, who passed for
being almost invincible, will produce the greatest
consternation amongst them. The event was greeted
with the greatest joy in the arrondissements of Corte
and Sartena."

THE CONTINENT.

BELGIUM.

The King of the Belgians, with his family, left
Brussels on Wednesday morning by a special train
tor :Tirlemont, to meet Queen Marie Amelie, the
Prince de Joinville, and the Duchess of Orleans
aoming from Germany, en route for England. From
Cirlemont his Majesty was to accompany his august
relatives as far as the station of Weckeren, whence
he special train would proceed to Ostend.
We read in the Emancipation of Brussels of Wed-
nesday :—" At the close of the sitting of the Chamber,
a courier was dispatched to M. Henri de Brouckere,
at Andergbem. He is sent for by the King. The
ministry which he has been charged to form will ap-
pear in the Moniteur to-morrow, or the day after."
The Pays has the following on the ministerial cri-
sis in Belgium :

" We are now in possession of more details relative
to the different incidents of the vote, which led to the
election of M. Delfosse, as President of the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives. It was not until the
,econd ballot that he was elected. We yesterday re-
marked that this feeble numerical majority was evidently
insufficient to serve as the ba,is of an homogeneous and
curable ministry. In fact, after the first success this
uncertain majority dissolved itself, and the Chamber
came to different contradictory votes. It was thus that
Vilain XIV., member of the Catholic party, was
immediately elected first Vice President, by a majority
of 57 to 44, and afterwards by a fresh charge tho vote,
were given to M. Veidt, the liberal candidate, who was
elected second Vice-President by 53 to 48, The Secre-
taries comprise two liberals, MM. Martens and Ansisux;
one Catholic, M. Vermeire, and one of the neutral party.
M. Dumont ; and the two Questors are M. Baillet, a
moderate liberal, and M. Sectisos pure Catholic. Evidently
:here are in these facts symptoms of political dissolution in
the Belgian parliament, which appear tons of the greatest
gravity. Public opinion ;knows not on what to fix ;
it waves between men and parties at the hazard of
vents, and at the caprice of ballots. We know not with
what resolution this difficult situation will inspire the
Sovereign of Belgium ; but in truth with the elements
of which the parliament is now composed it is almost
.mpossible to foresee how this long crisis will terminate.
Delfosse, in taking possession of the Presidential
chair, invited parties to ucion and concord ; it is diffi-
cult to believe that this wish can be realised. M. de
Brouckere at least thinks so. It is in fact announced
that he has been again sent for by the King, and that he
nas formally declined the mission of forming a Cabinet.
The late ballot, he said, proved that the cld majority
was broken up. But, if that be true, the fluctuations cf
the parliamentary votes equally prove that there has not
yet been formed a compact majority capable of support-
ing a new administration. Thus, for three months Bel-
gium has been delivered up to an insoluble crisis, without
a ministry since the old one has resigned, and without a
parliament, for there exists no real majority, in face of
chat irresponsible fiction called Constitutional Royalty.
We leave this afflicting state of affairs to the meditation
of all the partisans of Parliamentary regime."

GERMANY.
The Emancipation of Brussels says :—" It is stated
that the negotiations which have just been opened at
Vienna on the custom's question will in principle be
only confidential. The Austrian cabinet, before
making any proposition, wishes to be sure of the ac-
ceptance of all the plenipotentiaries. A first prepa-
ratory meeting took place on the 22d, at the ministry
of foreign affairs."
The primary elections for the second chamber are
terminated in Prussia. At Berlin they are such as
was anticipated. The democratic party abstained,
and the other electors showed but little eagerness to
vote. We do not yet know the result of the elections
in the provinces, but it is more than probable that
they are like those of the capital.
A journal announces the death of Baron Jean de
Gagern, who played an important part at the Con-
gress of Vienna, and made himself remarkable for his
determination in claiming Alsace for Germany.
Count Appony, who was a long time Austrian
ambassadorT at Paris, has just died in Hungary.
The
Voss Gazette says, under date of Vienna :

THE MADIAI FAMILY,--The following letter was re-
