Neufchatel, M. Calame, said that he could not take part
in The affair, it being in other hands than his. He
thought, however, that the present case was not pro•
vided for by the Act annexing Neufchatel to Switzer-
land. The proceeding of the King of Prussia, he added,
was quite spontaneous. The Government of Neufchatel,
from the interest which it felt for its Sovereign, had re-
ceived with gratitude that proof of his Majesty's solici-
tude, and had thought it right to inform all the confede-
rates of it. The deputy of Geneva, Mr. James Fazy, said
that it must be understood that the term ' Principality of
Neufchatel,' which was employed, was only a vague phrase
which did not imply any recognition on the part of the
Confederation of a real principality. Switzerland only re-
cognised a sovereign canton of Neufchatel, and the Prince
of Neufchatel was only a lord possessing some feudal
rights therein, but could not be considered as sovereign
with respect to Switzerland. The canton which he (M.
Fazy) represented did not believe that the recent act of
the King of Prussia was spontaneous, but believed that
the King had ceded to the representations of a party
interested in causing it to be believed that he would be
disposed to intervene in the affairs of Switzerland. M.
Ochsenbein, the deputy of Berne, said that he also had
protested against the ding's note. The sanction of the
King of Prussia had been sclicited ostensibly or clan-
destinely. If it were attempted, he added, to have con-
ferences in Switzerland, the Confederation would know
how to protest against them, as it had opposed the in-
trigues of the separate league. The deputy of Neuf-
chatel repeated that the proceedings of the King of
Prussia had been spontaneous, and complained that his
declarations should be doubted. M. Fazy again de-
clared that Switzerland knew no Prince of Neufchatel,
but fully recognised the sovereignty of that canton. M.
Furrer having stated that there was no objection to
modify the wording of the note so as to meet the views
of the deputy of Geneva, the debate was declared to be
closed, and the note was adopted by 13 states and two
half states, including Pale Ville. The Diet then adopted
the decroe to compel the cantons of the Sonderbund to pay
the expenses of the war, and declaring that those cantons
shall be occupied by the Federal troops until the pay-
ment shall be effected. A resolution, approving the
measures taken by the Directory, thanking it for them,
and inviting it to continue them, subject to the provi-
sions of the previous decree, was then adopted. A dis-
patch from the Government of Neufchatel, stating that
it was disposed to pay over its contingent to the Federal
exchequer, was next read. It was stated that the ex-
penses of maintaining an army of 50,000 men for the
occupation of the Sonderbund cantons would be about
5,011,000 f. To cover these expenses, a loan would, it
was said, have to be raised, or the bonds belonging to the
Confederation be sold. The deputy of St. Gall expressed
a hope that no loan would be raised abroad, and said
that there was sufficient patriotism in Switzerland to
enable the sum to be raised in the country. A vote,
approving the conduct of the Directory in effecting a
loan of 526,166 f. from the Cantonal Bank of Berne, for
the temporary maintenance of the troops, was then
passed. Complimentary addresses to the Diet from
Leipzic and Deux Ponta were read. On the proposition
of Berne, a motion was ordered to be placed on the or-
ders of the day for according pensions to the widows and
orphans of those who have fallen in the service of the
Confederation."

Madrid papers of the 29th ult. have arrived.

The discussion on the Address was continued in
the Chamber of Deputies, and Senor CORTINA, who
was speaking when the post left, denounced the Mi-
nistry in severe terms for their illegal conduct in the
arrest and deportation of MtaALL, the singer, and
for their inconsistency in first dismissing Generals
CONCHA, Ros DE OLANO, and CORDOVA, and then
loading them with favours. Should NARYAEZ reply
to these accusations, some curious disclosures may
be expected as to the nature of the recent intrigues
of the Afrancesado Camarilla in the Palace.

The Gageta contains an official report of the ere
cution of the Carlist chief, EL ESTALLADOR, at St

We have received the Paris papers of Monday.
Orders have been given to prepare the Tuileries
for the reception of the KING and Royal Family,
who will arrive in Paris on the 15th, preparatory to
the opening of the session. Already nearly 300
Deputies have arrived in Paris, the great majority of
whom express their dissatisfaction with the line of
policy which M. GUIZOT has thought proper to adopt
with regard to Switzerland. He in his turn threatens
them with the vengeance of the Reformers, who de-
mand the expulsion of all placemen from the Chamber,
and declares, that if he be superseded in the Ministry
at the present moment, his successor, whoever he may
be, must yield so far to " the pressure from without"
upon the reform question as to exclude all recently
appointed or promoted placemen from the Chamber,
by which measure nearly 180 Deputies would be
affected, and he counts upon the personal fears of
these 180 to keep up his majority.

The news of the defeat of the forces of the Empe,
ror of .111oRocco by those of ABD•EL-KADEE is con.
firmed.

General VENTURA, wbo, it will be recollected, was
long the favourite General of RUNJEET SINGH, and
who disciplined the Sikh forces of the Punjaub, sailed
recently from Marseilles on board the Rhamses
packet for Rome, where he will remain a short time,
after which he will embark for India via Egypt.
It was rumoured on the Bourse that General
NARVAEZ had completely lost the confidence of Queen
CHRISTINA, who was busily engaged in an intrigue
to oust him from office, and to form a new Cabinet,
of which MoN Pinar, and GONZALES BR•vo would
be members. The refusal of General CONCHA to
accept the Paris Embassy would, it was said, render
impossible the transference of M. PISCATORT to
Madrid, as no Ambassador could be sent to that
Court while it continued to be represented at Paris
by a simple Charge d'Affaires.

The Journal des Del Tats considers the nomination
of the Duke DE SERRA CAPRIOLA to the Government
of Sicily, as an indication on the part of the Xing
of NAPLES of a desire to make some concessions to
the demands of his people.
The Courier Frantais says—
" We have been assured that Lord Minto, who has
been charged with a private mission to the Pontifical
Government, has Biped a convention for the esta-
blishment of diplomatic relations between England
and Rome. It is said that the Holy See intends to
accredit as its representative at London Cardinal
Buffondi, a man of great learning and of a very liberal
mind."

MARKET NEW S.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY
An unusually small supply of English Wheat was on
sale here to-day; and we have to report a very steady
demand for that article of Grain at fully, but at nothing
quotable beyond, Monday's prices. The best parcels of
Foreign Wheat were in good request, at full currencies.
In the middling and inferior kinds, though we cannot
call them cheaper, very little business was transacted.
For Malting Barley there was an improved inquiry, at
full currencies; and the value of other kinds was well
supported. Although the supply of Malt was small,
that article ruled dull, at barely late rates. The best
parcels of Oats moved off steadily, at a trifle more
money. Other qualities were quite as dear. Both Beans
and Nes were dull, and the turn lower. Indian Corn,
Meal, and Flour sold at very full prices.
