MADRID, JUNE 24.—1 n the sitting of the Cortes this
day, the guardianship of the young Queen has been de-
clared vacant by 129 against 1.
MADRID, JUNE 22.—The Chambers have commenced
the discussion on the question of the guardianship, the
proposition of M. Luzuriaga that one should be appointed
to act with the Queen Mother during her absence, was
rejected. M. Pacheco vehemently supported the pro-
position. The debate lasted two days. The Minister
of Finance presented two " projet de loi," the one rela-
tive to the formation of a Committee of public credit,
and the other for the management and the disposal of
the National Estates. The funds remain the same, about
26f for cash.
TOULON, JUNE 26.—Vice-Admiral Lafause was to
put to sea on the 28th, for the Levant, with his division.
A second division, under the command of Captain Lety,
composed of three ships and one frigate, was to repair to
Tunis.
FRONTIERS OF TURKEY, JUNE 16. The treaty of
commerce between Prussia and the Porte, which will
extend to all the German States of the Union, has just
been ratified.
CARLSRURE, JUNE 25.—The treaty of commerce and
navigation between England and the German Customs'
Union gives rise to violent discussion with the press in
Germany. Some journals, at the head of which is the Ga-
zette d'Augsbourg, which is supposed to be influenced by
some great Power, condemns the treaty, on the 'ground
that it ought not to have been effected with-
out taking the sense of the whole of the union on the
subject. The Prussian Cabinet, at the same time that it
tolerates an independent line of policy, upholds the
treaty through the medium of the press.
The Hatti Scheriff, which has been accepted and pro-
claimed by Mehemet Ali, was the result of a convention
signed by the Four Powers—that relative to the tribute
was a direct question between the Paella and the Vice-
roy, to which they offered their friendly but not official
interference.

containing advices from the Windward Islands to the 15th.

severe drought, but the latest dates bad been blessed with co-
pious and refreshing showers.

ing among the inhabitants.

duty of one per cent. on all imports and exports to make roads,

terday, 89i for the Account; Three per Cents. Reduced,
