Ems, APRIL Io.—Her Majesty the Empress of Russia
has hired the country house of M. j-luytt, where the
Emperor Nicholas once resided. It is to to: newly fur-

The Royal proclamation is published to-day. convoking
the General Assembly of the E,tates of the Kingdom to

BRUNSWICK, APRIL 15.—We aro able to state, on good
authority, that there is no foundation whatever for tie
statement that the proposal of Brunswick to join
the German Customs Union, has been cleated
at Berlin. M. Von Amherg had had the roost
gracious and favourable recepti in at Berlin, and it is
to be hoped that the wishes of the country yell' be speedily
fulfilled.

DANTZIC, APRIL 20.—The Provisional Assembly of the
Province of Prussia having terminated, all the business
bt font it was closed yest,rday by the Ruyal.Commissioner,
the High President Schon.
RUSSIAN FRONTIER, APRIL B.—The latest letters from
St. Petersburgh say that affairs had taken a turn in Count
Demidoff's favour. His amiable consort has gained the
favour of the Emperor, and the Count himstlf has so-
lemnly affirmed his attachment to the Russian Synod and
the Orthodox Greek Church. It is said he has already
obtained the Emperor's permission to make anotherjour-
ney to Paris.

parts of Norway, as we Is am front letters from the south-
west parts of the kingdom. Fahrsund, Christiar*sand,
Arendahl, &e.

CAI LSRUIIE, APRIL 12.—(From the Leipsic Allyemeine
Zeitu»g.)—The rebuilding of the fortress of Hineingen,
which covered the fronti.rs of France towards northern
Switzerland, is spoken aas a thing derided on. M.
Guizot, it is said, having obtained permission to this ef-
fect, in return fi r his approximation to the other great
Povters. It cannot be denied that the restoration of flei-
nengen, contrary to the stipulations of 'hi, troaty of Paris,
would flatter the national vanity of the French, and con-
tribute not a little to consolidate the present Government.
A remonstrance on the part of Switzerland, which would
be so much interested by the measure, would probably
b't little regarded in the presert state of that country.—

SUBSTITUTE FOR TRANSPORTATION.-A
plan has been recently suggested, the object of which is to
do away with transportation to a considerable extent, by
compelling fe:ons to work in coal and other mines, subject to
certain regulations apportioning the quantum of labour and
the length of confinement in the pits to the heinousness of
the crime and the conduct of the criminal.
