Madrid Journals of the 233 ult. state that the Commit-
tee charged with the revision of the tariffs was about be-
ing re-organized, and as Catalonia had heretofore com-
plained that its interests had been overlooked by former
Governments, three members belonging to that province
are to be attached to the Committee.

Licut.-General Francisco Ferran had been appointed
President of the Supreme Tribunal of NVar and Marine.
Madrid was tranquil, but resembled more a strong place
than a capital, from the number of troops concentrated
there, and which amounted to at least 20,000 men.

BANES OF TAE DANITEE, Nov. 04

, .
All is very busy in the Bavarian War Department. The
regiments are being raised to their war footing. The
army was considerably below the contingent-36,000 men,
many being on leave. This is the Ring's doing. His
hobby is the fine arts, and he pays very little attention to
the army. All the horses at the reserve studs have been
called in, and their numbers not being sufficient orders have
teen given for the purchase of the required number.
Munich is particularly bustling. Every day, not ex-
cepting Sundays and holidays, workmen arc employed in
the artillery department, and after the usual hours, princi-
pally in preparing artillery carriages and harness, &c.
I see, by the by, the Bavarian army stated at 60,000 in
an English journal ; this is nearly double its real amount.
I also re:d that 4,000 Bavarians were ordered to Mentz ;
this is not the case, and cannot be ; fur though that is a
German league fortress, still it is by stipulation only occu-
pied by Prussians and Austrians. There aro two regi-
. wants of infantry, each of 2,000 men, at Landau, in Rhe-
nish Bavaria.

The Dowager Queen of Bavaria has been very seriously
indisposed, I believe of a bilious attack. She is upwards
of 60, and as thin as a lath.

Munich has bad a great musical treat lately. Ernst, the
greatest violin performLr of the present day (in the opi-
nion of good judges), not even excepting Ole Bull, has
been playing there. An anecdote is related of him, that
many years ago, while yet a boy, he gave a concert at
Frankfort, at which was Paganini, whose astonishment was
great on hearing Ernst play a piece of music which he
( Paganini) had composed, but never published. The fact
was, that Ernst had learned this most difficult piece merely
by hearing Paganini play it.
Thalberg, the pianist, is now at Munich. lie also gave
a concert here last night. I don't know whether it is ge-
nerally known that he is the son of Prince Dietrichstein,
the ci.derant governor of the Duke of Reichitadt.
Count William of Wurtemberg is at Munieli. He is
going to be married to Theodulinde, sister of the Duke of
Luuchtenburg. He is the son of a brother of the late
King of Wurtemberg by a left-handed marriage ; hence
he is only Count.
Shelley's works, just translated into German, and pub-
lished at Leipsic, have been forbidden in Bavaria by an
order of the Home Minister.

Lord Napier passed through here last Friday, with de-
spatches for Vienna in great haste. Ile voted for Lord
Lyttelton at Cambridge, left for London, and then crossed
the Channel in an open boat on the preceding Monday, as
no steamer would venture. I fancy he bears something of
importance, as he travels night and day, but I could worm
nothing, of course, out of him. The Germans were ready
to embrace him everywhere, thinking that he is the brother
of the valiant Commodore, whom they are very particu-
larly astonished at, and extol to the skies for his intrepidity.
The painter Cornelius is about to leave Munich for
Berlin. I fancy he has had a little tiff with the King.
The following anecdote I have on good authority :—Cor-
nelius, you must know, has just finished the fresco paint-
ings in the Lcdwig church at Munich. The other day his
Majesty went to inspect it, accompanied by Gartner, the
architect, giving orders that no one, not even Cornelius,
should be admitted during his stay in the church. Who
should, however, conic but the painter himself, with a
friend, to see the building, and was not a little disgusted
to find that the door was shut against him. Gartner is
now gone to Athens to finish the theatre there. lie has
taken with him a number of young artists to assist him.
POLISH FRONTIER, Nov. Ill.—The rejments of cavalry
which were to go from 'sVosnesensk to join the southern
army, have returned to their usual quarters, and a division
of infantry which was on its march to the Black Sea, have
received counter orders. The transports at Odessa are
dismantled, and the troops quartered in barracks. News
is said to have been received from Riga, that the wintering
of the Russian Baltic fleet in a Danish harbour, has either
met with difficulties, or is no longer judged neco.sary ; the
ships will not leave Cronstadt and Balisch port this winter
