We read in a letter from Bale of the 22d :

" Tne Constituent Assembly has terminated its la-
bours. The last paragraphs of the new constitution were
discussed in the sittir.g of this day, and the measure
itself adopted by 90 votes to 2. The dissentient votes
were given by M. Lichtenhahn, the head of the Chan.
cellor's office of the canton, and M. Bourcard, president
of the Criminal Tribunal. The measure produced by
the committee has not undergone any very important
modifications, and there is cause for congratulation that
the matter has terminated so quietly. In a few days the
people will be called on to vote, and there can be no
doubt that the constitution will be accepted by the great
majority of the citizens."

A correspondent writes from Copenhagen to the
German journal of Frankfort, that the King of
DENMARK entertains the intention of granting to his
people constitutional institutions. The assemblies of
the States will be convoked separately for three days.
They will each have seven delegates, making in all
twenty-eight, whi will meet at Copenhagen, and
diseuss in concert the proposed constitution, and come
to a mutual understanding upon the interests of the
kingdom and the duchies.

The Prussian Universal Gazette publishes a royal
decree, declaring that all the members of Communist
societies shall be prosecuted, according to the existing
laws against high treason, if found to propagate doc-
trines subversive of those laws.

The Official Gazette of Vienna publishes an impe-
rial ordonnance, granting the exclusive concession of
the railway between Vienna and Gloggnitz to a com-
pany for a terra of fifty years. At the expiration of
that period, the line is to revert to the State without
its paying for it anything to the company.

Letters from Breslau of the 20th state that Aus-
trian Gallicia continues to be much agitated, in con-
sequence of the distressed condition of the labouring
classes. There are several bands moving about de-
manding food, and in some cases they have committed
depredations, which rendered it necessary to call out
the armed force.

Intelligence from Lisbon to the 22d has been
received.

SALDANHA has been reduced to inactivity for want
of money and recruits, neither of which he can
procure. The Junta have sent artillery from Oporto
to Viana, to reduce the Castle of the latter place.
A LMARGEM, a Junta guerilla chief, destroyed a
Miguelite guerilla, near Braga, on the 10th. On the
18th SALDANHL was at Lamege. It was expected
that British mediation would eventually be accepted
by both sides.

On the 22d the discount on Bank of Lisbon notes
was 37 per cent.

Madrid papers and letters of the 20th, 21st, and
22d have been received.
The court-martial for the trial of General SER-
RANO has been appointed by the Minister of War,
and he has been officially cited to appear within 30
days, or he will be considered as contumacious.
General MANSO has been dismissed from the office
of Captain-General of Madrid, for having facilitated
the escape of General SERRANO.

In the Chamber of Deputies, on the discussion of
the paragraph in the Address relating to finances,
Senor BERMUDEZ DE CASTRO proposed an amend.
meat in favour of free trade and an alteration in the
tariff. The amendment was negatived by a majority
of 116 to 83.

A conspiracy had been discovered among the
Afrancesado military chiefs, for the deposition of
the QUEEN, and the appointment of her husband
and of the Duc BE llowrratisna Regents of the
kingdom. They had already made attempts to se-
duce the troops of the garrison from their allegiance.
General NARVAZZ, it is said, was the person relied

on to strike the blow, and the signal of action was to
come, it is sail, from Paris.

BOLA, MARCH 22.—The Three per Cents were

We have received the Paris papers of Friday and
Saturday.
The proposition of AI.'DEVERGIER DE HAEJU:NNE,
on electoral reform, was rejected on Friday, by a
majority of 98, the numbers being for the motion,
_ _ .

154 ; against it, 252. M. GuizoT aidressed the

Chamber at great length, and spoke very bitterly of
the seceders from his party. The Presst thus de-
scribes his speech :
"M. Guizot was neither more happy nor less feeble
when he had to explain himself as to the views that he
Lock of the word progress, and to ei.umerate the acts of
progress due to the Ministry of the 29th of October.
He spoke of immense reforms, and cited four, viz.; the
liberty of punlic instruction, penitentiary- or penal re-
form, the reform of the colonial regime, and reforms in
the Customs. But of these four retorms, three are still
in the condition of projects; the fourth, that of the colo-
nial regime is the only one that has been effected, and
we all know what that is worth. The Ministry pro-
poses to stop here. Those of the Conservatives who
think that these reforms will not suffice, have only to
change places, and go over to the Opposition. This M.
Gu;zo: has said without ceremony. We had supposed
that he would use a language different from that of M.
Duchatel. It was, however, the same language, but
more harsh and explicit."

In another article in the same paper M. GulzoT is
thus tauntingly reminded of the deception he prac-
tised on the electors by his promises at Lisieux :
" All parties promise progress; but the Conservative
party alone will give it to you.' this is what M. Guizot
said solemnly in August last before electoral France as-
sembled and attentive. Our confidence in these words
was such that we hastened to place theta under the title
of our journal. We now efface them. They would be
a lie on our part if they were to remain, fur after the
speech of the Minister for Foreign Affairs yesterday,
we confess with pain that no illusion is any longer pos-
sible, no hope can any longer be permitted."
Mr. O'CONNELL is staying at the Hotel Windsor,
Rue de Rivoli. Dr. OLIFFE, who is i n attendance
on him, has given it as his opinion that Mr. O'Cort-
NELL is sound in every respect, but low and debili-
tated from fatigue and over-work.

The numerous arrivals of foreign grain had caused
prices to decline in all the markets of France.

The Union Monarchigne states that the Marquis (le
PASTORET (a well-known Legitimatist) has paid into
the subscription for the relief of the poor of Paris the
sum of 10,000 f., as the donation of an anonymous
contributor residing abroad. This anonymous
contributor is, it is said, the Due DE BORDEAUX.

Galignani's Messenger publishes the following
statement :

" We have received a letter from Mr. Thompson, the
British Vice-Consul at St. Melo, contradicting in the
most positive terms an account given in a letter from
that place by the Debats, and copied by us from that
journal. It was stated in Ihe letter in question that Mr.
Thompson had created a disturbance in the corn market
at St. Malo, by offering 35f. for a hundred weight of
flour, when the market price was only 32f. The truth
appears to be that, so far from Mr. Thompson's having
raised the market price. he resisted an attempt by some
of the dealers to make him pay 35f., solely, as he says,
because he is an Englishman ; and one of these persons,
after an investigation by the authorities, was arrested,
and has been compelled to deliver over the flour to Mr.
Thompson at the market price of 30f., and not 32f., as
stated by our contemporary."
The Senanelle de Maurice, of December 27, an-
nounces that the French Government, convinced of
the insalubrity of the settlement of Nossibe, on the
Madagascar coast, has decided upon abandoning
it. Two-thirds, and sometimes even three-fourths,
of the troops stationed in this fatal climate have
died. The island of Mayotte, therefore, will be-
come the only military position retained by France in
these seas.
