RUSSIA.

BERLIN, JAN. 22.

The following are the most important passages
of the draft of the Address of the Chamber of
Deputies :
" We begin our work under sad auspices, and feel
it our duty to make respectful representations to
your Majesty concerning the state of public affairs.

" Since last session the Ministers have carried on
the public administration against the Constitution
and without a legal budget. The supreme right of
the representatives of the people has thereby been
attacked. The country has been alarmed, and has
stood by its representatives.

" A small minority of the people only • has, en-
couraged by the Ministers, carried the worst
calumnies against the Chamber of Deputies to the
foot of the throne in the form of addressee.

" Abuses of the power of the Government are
now taking place, just as in the sad years which
preceded the Regency. Your Majesty recently
declared that nobody should doubt your intentions
of maintaining the Constitution; but the Constitu-
tion has already been violated by the Ministers.
" Our position imposes on us the most urgent
duty of solemnly declaring that peace at home
and power abroad can only be restored to the
Government by its returning to a constitutional
state of things."

FRANCE.
PARIS, JAN. 23.

The lifoniteur of this morning says :
" The English press has given vent to strange
conjectures upon the despatch of a battalion of
Egyptian troops to Mexico, experience having
proved that negroes are not subject to the yellow
fever.

"The Emperor has not, like England during the
war in India, requested permission to enlist soldiers
in Egypt, but the temporary loan to France of a
regiment of 1,200 negroes.
" the Viceroy could only dispense with 350 men,
who are destined to garrison Vera Cruz. The mea-
sure has therefore been taken in the interests of
humanity, and cannot give rise to the slightest
criticism."

Le _Nord, which is now published at Paris, has
the following :—.‘ It is stated that about eight days
since an official note was despatched from the
French Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Washing-
ton Government, proposing the meeting of an
American Congress, which would be for the United
States what the Congress of Westphalia was to Ger-
many during the Thirty Years' War. The idea of
this Congress is said to emanate from M.Drouyn de
Lhuys. A recent at tide in the Constautionnel,
which was looked upon as coming from a semi-
official source, developed the spirit of the note of the
French Government. We give this news with due
reserve."

The Emperor and Empress dined yesterday with
the Princess Alathilde.

Among the passengers, by the Estremadurn, who
arrived at Bordeaux yesterday were Gen. Pelissier,
from Senegal, and M. De Breuil, French Consul at
Lisbon.

A three masted vessel having missed the entrance
of the harbour was lost two days since in sight of
Havre. It said to be the Bonne Mere, of Bordeaux,
Captain Gaignerot, from the coast of Africa, with
a cargo of palm oil. Thanks to the assistance of
the lifeboat, the crew escaped, saving also, with
great difficulty, their captain, who was lying dan-
gerously ill in the cabin. Intelligence has since
been received by the steamer L'Eclair, just arrived
from Honfleur, that 50 casks of palm oil had been
washed ashore and saved.
A sad collision is recorded between the steamboat
arriving at St. Nazaire from Nantes and the staemer
Comtesse de Cuba, which destroyed the former.
The shock was so violent as to terrify many persons,
who rashly endeavoured to jump into the ship's
boat. One lest his life, another was dangerously
and it is feared fatally injured, while oth, rs were
seriously hurt. Those who remained on board were
unharmed.

The Siecle Lf this morning announces that it has
received in one day 10,000 fr. for the relief of the
Seine-Inferieure.

The Gazette de Weimar announces that the Duke
of Saxe Coburg Gotha will accept the crown of
Greece on condition that he is allowed to retain the
regency of his duchy at the same time.

in replying to Lord Russell's second despatch,
seeing that it was not of great importance after the
decided tone of the Danish answer. But, as there
was no desire to fail in courtesy towards a great
Power that at least professes friendliness, the
Minister for Foreign Affairs has now despatched a
lengthened reply. It is rumoured that the Cabinet
of St. Petersburg has supported Lord Russell's
recommendations, a fact which the Dagbladet thinks
should make Denmark still more suspicious of their

tcndency and still more resolute to refuse
them. Lord Russell, it says, has by no
means consulted the real interests of England,
who should on every account rejoice to see the
establishment of a strong and independent Danish
kingdom, closely allied to Sweden and Norway, and
free from all German interference, while such a
Scandinavian alliance would be extremely mortify-
ing to Russia.
