FROM EGItiA.

" For some time a coldness has existed between
Admiral Malcolm and Admiral Heyden. The
eautos of it are not known, but it is attributed to or
etructions which they have received from their re-
t.pective Governmente. The end will be a misun-
derstanding, liciween these two Powers. We are
ignorant at present what part out Government
would take in such a case, fur Admiral de tiigny is
on good terms with both the Admirals. The ualtal
forces of ti,e three great Powers seem to be con-
centrating more and more, the Russians at Porog,
the English at Suda, and the French at Egina.
General 'Lieu!, who has the ecmmand of the
na..nco-Greek troops, finds it impossibZ2 to keep
she withers in their ranks, Although he an
otiicer of great merit, he has not yet obtained over
these troops the same ascendancy as Colonel
Fahvier."

We learn from Terceira, that two English vessels
vv/hieiz sailed from Ostend on the 26th of November
arrived at Angra on the 18th of December. One
,4 them kat' the cadras of the I.sth Regiment of
Ittr*Antty on board ; and the other, on. board of
which was the Countess de Villaflor, had a call.; of
provisions.
Extract of a private letter of the 3d inst. from
Lugans3;—This city of Italy has just been thrown
into the utmost consternation. Two of the warmest
partisans of the reform of our constitutioa have just
fallen by the has:ds of assassins. The ia.4.thers
imrati being et the theatre on the Ist inst., were
subbed by some of the adherents of that stationary
.system which Austria imposed on us in 1814.
'Whey fall as though smitten by a thunderbolt, with-
otitt dispute or provocation. A very high person-
age, a sworn enemy of the reform, is uot .ez.empt
from sus:ririon. The exasperation of the pali.e.
snind is carried to the highest pitch, and it is int-
tosssible to foresee what may occur. The accounts
that reach us from the Lombardo-Venetian frontiers
are mull distressing. The vexatiorps ,exercised by
the police 'tally no bounds.
The Moniteur contains a royal ordinance of" titer
17tia instant, by which 60,000 men, of the class cfl
11.629, are called into active service.
e le4trn front Toulon that, en the 15th instant,
the ship of the line, Le Sceptre, ti+o guns, was wil-
fully ;et on fire and entirely consumed. This vessel
was appopriated as barracks for the sailors of crev,3
a the line. The fire commenced in a part of the
hold which served as a prison, and was kindled by
a prisoner, who alone fell a victim to his atrocious
deed. The frames soon became so 4,iQiept, that it
was impossible to extinguish them, and it Wr.3 !hen
resolved to tow the chip out of the port in ard.ex
prevent the fire communicating to other vessels.!
Upon reaching the small rosAbtead, she ran ashore,
and was there burnt to the water's edge. The
:dames raged from eight o'clock in the :;oaring till
three in the afternoon. The naval authorh and
all the men employed iu. the different Government,
establishments embarked int cets, but as it was im-
possible to save the Sceptre, their efforts were ex-
clusively directed to prevent the fire spres4ing. The
burnirg vessel presented a spectacle at once maga:,
Gcent and melancholy, arid attracted to the quays
and wharfs an immense sn,u4titude of spectators.
Happily there was no wind at eve t,lnle, or the port
of Tonion is-ught have been the thewt,r,2 pir an awful
watastrophe, the consequences of which ara

The Journal du Havre uateg, that it is intended
tO prosecute the Gazette de Praure for a libel cn
M, Guizot, in having mutilated a letter respecting

that gentleman, without publishing the refutation
with which it was accompanied. M. Guizot, it will
be recollected, is a candidate for the vacancy in thk
representation of the Department of Calvados.
The responsible editor and the printer of La
France Meridionale, a Toulouse journal, were re-
cently condemned to three months' imprisonment
and a fine of 3001 r., as guilty of exciting to hatred
and contempt of the King's Government, by the
publication of an article upon the elevation of the
Prince de Polignac to the Presidency of the Coun
ed. The Procureur de Roi having appealed against
this sentence as being.too light, the appeal carne on
for hearing a few days since before the Royal Court
of Toulouse. The pleadings having been gone
through, the Court quashed the former sentence,
and condemned the defendants to six months' impri-
sonment each, a fine of 6,000 f. in solid°, and Costa."

STUTGARD (WURTEMBERG), JAN. IG.—His Mr-
jesty opened the the sessions of the States yester-
day, by the following Speech, addresed to the United
Chambers :

" MOST SERENE, ILLUSTRIOUS NOBLES,-RESPECTED,

DEAR, AND FAITHFUL SUBJECTS :--

" I view with the most lively satisfaction my
faithful Estates this day assembled round me.
" Ten years have passed away, since, at the period
of the re-establishment of the constitution, you for
the first time assembled round my throne, to deli-
berate with me on the interests of the country, in
the spirit of that constitution and with feelings of
peace and affection,—since I expressed in this place
the hope I entertained of being the happy father of
a loyal people.
" My hopes and my wishes have been realized.
We can now with satisfaction glance black on the
first decennial period of our constitution, which,
constantly strengthened by the scrupulous fidelity
with which we have maintained it, develops more
forcibly from day to day its benign influence.
" Supported by a legislature which works calmly
and prudently, the administration in all its branches
proceeds towat ds its object with the greatest possi-
ble order and regularity. An equitable assessment
has lightened on my people those charges in the en-
deavour to diminish which I am incessantly occupied.
" In comparing the state of the Finances, which
my .Minister for tlist department will lay before you,
pith the wants of the former years, you will be
satisfied that the ordinary expences of the State
are less, by one million, than at the commence-
ment of this decennial period. My subjects have
experienced a perhaps still more sensible allevia-
tion, by the diminution of the rate of assessment
in the bailiwicks and communes, in the public trea-
sury having taken on itself the charges and debts
of corporations, and by the abolition or commute-

ion of a vast number of burdensome services and

homage•.

I have reserved the financial savings of the
later years (of the period above mentioned) to
cover certain temporary expellees incurred for ob-
jects of general utility. My Minister of Finance
will propose to you particular resources for other
expenses of a similar kind, in order that my people
may already enjoy that:alleviation which the diminu-
tion of the s,rvices of the present year will permit.
" By my persevering cares for tile encouragement
of commerce, I have succeeded in opening to the
industry of my subjects a new field, which will daily
extend itself. I have charged my Ministers to make
to you the communications in this respect, authorized
by the constitution. It will be to me an object of
sincere pleasure to give every assistance which can
animate, perfect, and reward the national industry.
" I recommend to you the several projects which
my Ministers will lay before you, that you may give
them your most serious deliberation; and that if they
should not be brought to maturity this session, your
discussions may serve as a preparative for a more ef-
fective operation in future.
" Your intelligence, your dispositions, are to me
a guarantee that this fifth session of the States will,
like the preceding, serve to confirm the mutual con-
fidence which has always united me to my Wurtem-
bergere
The following address was delivered in answer
to the speech from the throne, by the Prince of
Hohenlohe-Ochringen, the President of the First
Chamber :

" SIRE,—Your Majesty has expressed an as-
surance most flattering to us, in declaring the plea-
sure you feel at seeing the Estates of your kingdom
assembled round your throne.

"A glance at the last ten years must be extremely
grateful to your Majesty, in presenting to your view
the accomplishment of the hopes and wishes with
which, after having established the Constitution,
you on the same day, the same hour, and in the
saro:2 place, cemented by a solemn alliance with us
the rights of Royalty.
" If at that time the representatives of NlTurtem-
berg looked with confidence on their Sovereign,
who, in receiving the Constitution, kindled the
torch of hope for the future, they are now ready to
oKer the homage of their testimony to that tin
shaken Prmness, that Royal loyalty' which not
only scatto-ed the seeds of national prosperity, but
watched over their growth and nourished them with
the utmost care until they reached a healthful ma-
turity.
" These Representatives acknowledge, with the
most profound gratitude, the manner in which your
Majesty li#s endeavoured, by indefatigable labours,
to reconcile the progressive development of our
public institutions v.'ith a diminution of the ex-
penses of the gtate, and to open, by increased en-
couragements for commerce, a most.fertile held for
the industry of your subjects.
" They have heard with the most lively satisfac-
the assurance which your Majesty has just
give:., thAt the prosperous condition of the finances
has.procured for the Estate the precious advantage of
economic savings.
" The Estates wait respeetto;ly the pommunica-
tions which your Majesty has promised, as well 4s
•

the measures which are to be submitted to their
de1:42'463"5.

" They y 4
,enter upon those deliberations with
the same spirit of co.:l4;:dence and affection which in-
spires your Majesty's heart.
" May the Almighty deign to fulfil the prayer
which vre have offered up to him, that the coiirz..,
at yo.p. Majesty's reign may still be marked by pe-
riods as gloi•ipus and as pi osperous as that which
has already pasm4l, e.O that he may grant to your
faithful Wurtemberterz tp kptiour, during a long
life in your august person, a Moi.i4c4 who feels a
paternal affection towards them.—Vivc le .ILipil
