GREECE.

The Moniteur gives the following extract of the
speech of the King of Greece on opening the session
of the Greek Chambers :
" Well-knoWn circumstances, accompanied by de-
plorable acts, have for some time past led to the
interruption of friendly relations with a neighbour-
ing State, and thus occasioned sensible losses to
the commercial interests of the two Governments.
My Government has never ceased to apply itself ac-
tively to the re-establishment of these relations,
and we hope that, with the sincere and kind cu•opera
tion of tha great powers the allies of the neighbouring
State, whose noble and generous sentiments in favour
of Greece have so strongly manifested themselves, our
desires will be happily fulfilled. In presence of the for-
midable struggle which has broken out in the East,
considerations of a superior order, founded on the
manifest interests of the nations, as well as on the
sentiments of gratitude which are due to friendly
powers, have dictated to us a declaration of the strictest
neutrality. In firmly adopting this system, we will
neither permit nor tolerate any act contrary to the
honour and true interests of the country. We keep up
friendly relations with all the powers, without
forgetting that the great interest of rising Greece is to
draw from the very sources of European civilisation all
the benefits that result from it for society."

ARTILLERY PRACTICE.

The artillery at Shoeburyness practised the whole of
yesterday morning, at the long gun exercise, of
which we hare ample proof here, in consequence of
the loud reports felt every two or three minutes, not-
withstanding Shoeburyness is ever on the Essex coast,
and distant many miles from Sheerness.

London, England, 1854-12-30

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 24th have arrived.
The Espana complains of the long time occupied
in transmitting by telegraph the quotations of the
Paris Bourse, but says that the fault lies with the
French and not the Spanish lines. The same journal
says :—" At Cadiz on the Bth, the solemn inaugu-
ration of the Church of San Francisco took place.
The edifice was saved from certain ruin and has
been restored to public worship by the efforts of
the English Ambassador, Lord Howden, whose
enthusiasm for the arts, and whose noble protection
of them, are well known in Spain." The 24th
being Sunday, the Stock Exchange was not open.

We learn from Jassy that on the 10th the Rus-
sian General, Prince Gortschakoff, notified to the
Government of Moldavia that the frontier of Bess-
arabia was closed, and that the quarantine esta-
blishments would be replaced by a military cordon.
A Berlin letter of the 26th, says :—" It is posi-
tively stated that all the efforts made by Prussia
to induce the small German States tip allow them-
selves to be represented at the Great Exhibition of
Paris by the Prussian Commissioner have com-
pletely'failed. Each has resolved to have a com-
missioner of its own."

By decision of the Government of Electoral
Hesse the export of horses from that country is
prohibited until further orders.

CRIMEAN ARMY FUND.—In consequence of a commu-
nication received a few days since from the Earl of El-
lesmere, the chairman of this fund, addressed to the
Mayor of Maidstone, his worship convened a public
meeting, which was held in the town-hall on Thursday.
It was attended by several of the clergy of the town, the
members of the corporation, and many ladies. The
Mayor, 11. Simmonds, Esq., stated the object of the
meeting, and read the letters he had received, when Sir
W. B. Riddell, the recorder of the borough, and others
warmly espoused the objects in view, and resolutions
were passed, in which the ladies of the town and neigh-
bourhood were requested to co-operate in providing the
articles so much needed by our troops. J. Monckton,
Esq., town clerk, was appointed hon. secretary. Several
gums of money were pubscribed izz the- room.

SOMETHING OMINOUS.

( From the Press of this day.)
It would be premature to more than allude to an
Event now in progress, which, when ripe for an-
, nouncement, will excite the greatest interest in
Europe, and open a new phase in the complications
of the Eastern question. In the present state of
the great European monarchies, it is not to be
expected that dynastic considerations can be
wholly separated from the policy of Courts, and
such considerations will soon, we have reason to
believe, assume a shape to demand the gravest de-
liberation.
London, England, 1854-12-30

AUSTRIA.

Despatches from Vienna state that at the con-
ference held in that capital on the 28th notes were
exchanged between the representatives of the three
Allied Powers, defining the sense in which their
Cabinets understood the four points proposed as
conditions of peace.
Prince Gortschakoff, it is understood, demands
time to obtain the instructions of his Government.

Another despatch, of the same date, says :—"Atr
this moment, two p.m., a conference is being held
at the hotel of the English Embassy, between
Prince Gortschakoff, Count Buol, Baron de Baur-
quency, and Lord Westmoreland."

PRUSSIA.
THE LATEST DIPLOMATIC DELUSION.
BERLIN, Friday.—The Prussian despatch of the
19th, addressed to the Cabinets of London and
Paris, announces an agreement with the views of
the Western Powers (?) ; and offers, in the terms of
a special arrangement, conformably with the parti-
cular position of Prussia, to unite with them in
urging a settlement of existent difficulties.
London, England, 1854-12-30

STATE OF TRADE.

NOTTINGHAM, Dec. 29.—This having been holiday
week, most of the warehouses have been closed. In the
hosiery and lace trades there is as much doing as is
usual at this season. The hosiery trade is expected to
take a turn for the better in consequence of the United
States tariff being altered in favour of this production,
and which conies into operation on the let of January.
BRADFORD, Dec. 29.—Wool—There is no improve.
ment in the demand for wool. Thu prices sought in the
country act as a drawback to its coming freely to mar-
ket. Yarns—This being a holiday market, the quan-
tity of yarns spun has been very trifling ; there is no
inducement to increase the supply, and this can only be
effected by higher prices becoming current. Pieces—
There is no change since our last, but the general
opinion augurs more favourably for the coming year.
The stocks of goods were never, during the last twenty.
years, known to be anything like so small.
LEICESTER, Dec. 29.—This being a holiday week,
manufacturers are employed in taking stock and prepa-
rations for the coming year.

It is positively affirmed that this Government will

Omar Pasha has received the order to proceed to
the Crimea, probably Eupatozia, and that he will
have 30,000 men under his command. The order
has been positively transmitted to him.

RUSSIA.

According to advices of the 6th, received by the
Presse from St. Petersburg►, the inhabitants of that
capital were much surprised that the Russian fleet
had not attempted to make a diversion in favour of
Boinarsund. The fall of that fortress has caused
great depression, as even the non-military part of
the nation is well aware that the Aland Islands
formed a .link in the chain of fortifications, by
means of which the Baltic was to have been made
as much a mare elausam as the Black Sea. The
plan seems to have been, that after the fortifi-
cations of Bomarsund were completed, a second
Russian fleet was to be formed, and at the first
suitable opportunity the Island of Guthland taken
from Sweden, and that of Bornholm from Den-
mark.

AUSTRIA .

VIENNA, Sept. 14.—The Breslau Journal says,
under the head of Vienna, that the Western Powers
have replied to the Austrian note communicating
Count Nesselrode's reply, by expressing not only
their satisfaction with the attitude now assumed by
Austria, but by announcing at the same time. that
they request the subject may be droppA, as deci-
sions are now exclusively referred to the fate and
issue of war. The Leipsic Journal announces from
Frankfort that the Diet has again postponed its de-
liberations on the Oriental question.
We find the following in Speller's Journal :

"The candour with which Russia admits that a new
adversary (Austria) is ready to place herself on the side
of Russia's adversaries is a complete diplomatic surprise.
Not a vestige scarcely remains, at any rate, of that
haughty tone with which Russia threw down the gauntlet
to all opponents at the commencement of the campaign.
It is upon the expedition agAinst the Crimea that Austria
now directs her whole attention, and her future conduct
will depend upon its success or failure. It is a bold cast,
unexampled in the enterprises of the world. Anxieties
are the greater, as the allies must avail themselves of
the last favourable period which the first campaign
offers. An attack on the Baltic fortresses and on the
Crimea could not be carried out simultaneously for
want of sufficient transport. The result of the Crimean
expedition will decide measures to be taken hereafter in
the Baltic. At the same time there can be no question
of the former entirely failing. The Crimea offers nu-
merous points of attack of greater or lesser strength.
Not only are Austria's further proceedings dependent
uponiesults in the distant theatre of war, but the less im-
portant questions upon which Glermany seeks to Orient
itself without arriving at a practical conclusion. Austria
has not bound herself to assail Russia, and indis-
putably will not do so until the Western Powers have
set fast footing on Russian territory. But whatever fate
attends the Crimean expedition, Austria has placed her-
self in the fortunate position of being enabled to hold the
objects at issue partly in her own bands (that is by oc-
cupying Wallachia), whilst she leaves to Russia the task
of reconquering with the sword her lost advantages,
which, as proved„ by the Turks, is not a matter of easy
accomplishment.
It cannot be denied that Austria has played her
cards with admirable skill, and we have yet to learn
whether the same compliment can be paid to Prus-
sia.
London, England, 1854-09-18

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

JASSY, Sept. B.—Prince Gortschakoff's head-
quarters have been here since the sth inst. The
Prince resides in the palace of the Minister Kaslaki
Sturdza. The Russians are retreating by forced
marches on the roads from Jassy to Skuleni, and
Burlad, to Leowa. The west and south of Molda-
via are already entirely evacuated. The Russians
have taken the guardship a,t Galatz with them.
Baron Budberg has removed the Hotman Mauro-
kordatos from his post On account of incapacity.
The Minister of Finance Balsch is appointed Het-
man provisionally. The Turks have already occu-
pied Fokschani."

A COUNCIL OF WAR.

On the 7th inst. Orner Pacha hold a council of
war at Bucharest, after which couriers were de-
spatched with orders to all the detached comman-
ders. The whole of the Turkish troops between
Kalarasch and Ibraila, as well as those at Busco,
will pass the Danube near Galatz, into the Do-
brudscha. The troops posted at Obelesti and
Nagosti follow them. Omer Pacha will remove
his head quarters to Ibraila early in October. The
originators of the report that dissensions had arisen
between Omer Pacha and the Austrian generals
have been punished. The whole of the Austrian,
Polish, and Italian political refugees at Bucharest,
serving as officers and subaltern officers in the
Turkish army of the Danube, left on the 3d for
Baltichik, to embark for Anatolia.

THE EVACUATION OF IBRAILA.
The German Gazette of Bucharest, of the 4th,
states that as soon as Ibraila had been evacuated by
the Russians, it was occupied by the French.
Some Russian soldiers who had not been suffi-
ciently quick in their movements were made pri-
soners.

FRANCE UNDER THE EMPEROR

NAPOLEON 111.

(From the Afoniteur.)

France is now enjoying the fruits of the honourable
and firm policy inaugurated by the Emperor. In spite
of famine, epidemic, and war, the national activity has
not been diminished and the public credit has not been
shaken. Thanks to the wise resolution of the Govern.
ment, so well seconded by the courage and confidence of
the country, three of the most formidable scourges that
can afflict a nation have been reduced, with the excep-
tion of losses to be for ever regretted, to the limits of
passing difficulties. The epidemic is being extinguished ;
the famine has been succeeded by an abundant harvest ;
the war, commenced under happy auspices, inspires no
more alarm than the ambition which created it. Within
a short time the nations, faithful to their appointment,
will re-assemble at Paris to take part in the pacific strug-
gles between industry and the arts.
What an immense change has taken place in opinion
as well as in position ! At the same time that France
resumed in Europe the eminent rank which be-
longed to her, she witnessed the disappearance of
that distrust of which the recollection of the past
rendered her the object. That nation, against which
every other country thought it had the right to
cherish jealousy, has become by an unexpected change
the most solid support of European order. It is no
longer towards the north that weak or menaced States
turn their attention ; and, what is'still more astonishing
the fears which France inspired have ceased by the ac-
cession of him whose glorious name seemed calculated to
awaken them. What has just taken place at Boulogne
forms an indication more expressive than any words.
To that shore, whence Napoleon 50 years ago menaced
England, and whence he rushed to the conquest of Ger-
many, have come the Prince, the husband of the Queen
of England, generals from all the States of Germany,
and also the King of the Belgians and the King of Por-
tugal, to visit the heir of Napoleon. They were present
as allies, as friends, at the manteuvres of an army which
by its discipline and its bravery, still more than by the
spot where it was encamped, recalled to recollection the
Grand Army of the first empire..
The fact is, that every one is now aware that those
valiant soldiers only threaten the enemy of the peace of
the world ; that the memorable words of Bordeaux,
which at first appeared irreconcileable with the reality,
have become an incontestable truth to all ; that no one
doubts that, with the causes of division which still exist
in Europe, with the weakness of certain States and the
hesitation of others, if France had not been satisfied with
the re-establishment of its national Government, if her
strength had not been concentrated in a firm and skilful
hand, the question now to be decided in the East would
have become the signal for one universal conflagration.
It is because every one is convinced that a prompt and
*argotic War wal the !Duly way to re-establish pew

The American Protestant Association have as-
sembled at Newark, N. J., to celebrate the first sit-
ting of the American Congress. The various lodges
of the order in New Jersey were in attendance and
there were also severalfromthiscity and neighbour-
hood. It it said that there were at least 3,000 per-
sons in attendance. Nothing occurred to mar the
scene untilafternoon, when, as the procession passed
through one of the streets, it encountered a crowd
of opponents, who saluted it with derisive shouts,
and finally a stone was thrown, whick struck one
of the Protestants. just at this moment, as it is
related, several shots were fired from a Roman Ca-
tholic church in the immediate vicinity. The pro-
cession broke for the church instantly, and in a
short time completely sacked its interior, despoiling
the altar, and rendering it a complete ruin. A
number of persons on both sides were badly hurt.
The crew of the ship John Rutledge, now lying in
harbour, bound for Liverpool, revolted on Sunday.
The mutineers were on Monday brought before
Mr. Commissioner Morton, and, after an exami-
nation, committed to prison.
There is news from Mexico to the 22d ult. The
Mexican papers assert positively that Count Boulbon
was shot. Santa Anna had issued a decree enabling
the religious orders to avail themselves of the civil
tribunals to enforce upon the monks and clergy an
adherence to their vows. By thelast English packet
a dividend was remitted to the English holders of
Mexican bonds. It is reported that Villareal, Al-
varez's next in command, and one of his most able
supporters, died atAcapulco from wounds received
in a late skirmish. Gomez, Alvarez's secretary, is
also reported to have died.
