SWITZERLAND.

A Journal of Schafhausen says—" We learn from se-
veral quarters that the Russian Ambassador has lately de-
livered a note to the presiding Canton, with the declaration
that his Sovereign, in concert with his Allies, has resolved
to maintain the present state of things, according to the
treaties of Paris, and the act of Congress at Vienna."
MAY Elms, Dec. 2.—The frequent exchange of couriers
between the corps of Prussian troops stationed on the
Rhine, and the movements observed in the army itself, and
especially among the officers of the general staff, give rea-
son,,to expect that Prussian troops will enter the Grand
Duchy of Luxemburg. Some persons affirm that this ex-
pedition will take plies in the name of the German Con-
federation, to which the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg be-
longs. Sarre Louis was declared in a state of siege some
time ago, and in conformity with the military laws, all
buildings about the glacia are pulled down. It is said that the
Prussian Government has already expended 7,000,000 dol-
lars for military armaments in the Rhenish provinces. When
we consider hew large armies now are, it dots not seem pos•
Bible to keep them for a long period on the war establish-
ment in a time of peace. Either the grounds for war
must be removed, and the political state of Europe must
secure another basis, or hostilities must begin. Another
alternative is not conceivable, unless a great increase should
e made in the taxes, which does► not seem practicable.

MUNICH, DIM 3.—The number of the ilawar for to-
day has been seised before publication, and the Press
sealed up.
The Volk& Blatt, published at Wurzburg, sad which is
a formal opposition paper, is very angry that its four edi.
tors, Olthinger, Grosse, Spazier and Sappir, have been
ordered to quit the kingdom, and with respect to the
latter, observes ironically, that the last was punished for a
dramatieal criticism. It is notorious, however, that no decent
and frankly expressed opinion of the highest institutions of
the State has ever been punished in Bavaria, much less a
theatrical criticism if expressed with propriety, and without
gross personalities. If the Government is compelled by the
insolence of such foreigners to make use of its rights, it
only acts as justice and the national honour prescribe.
A letter front 'Anthill says, " A Jouraal called Blithe
Boleros, (Rhenish Bavaria) which has lately been pub
lished here, and is said to be written by persons holding
high public offices in the circle of the Rhine, is new a
subject of conversation and attention. It delivers en '
opinion respecting what is necessary with refe-
rence to politics in these critical times in the circle
of the Rhine, some persons see in it only the tempe-
rate expression of truth the most worthy of regard;
others call it the preaching of rebellion, and it is reported
that it is put under sequestration by the Government.
