GERMAN PAPERS.

DRESDEN, SEPT. 16.—The Second Chamber of the
Assembly of the States, in a secret sitting of this d iy,
agreed to approve of the Convention concluded by the Go-
vernment for acceding to what is called the Prussian-
German Tariff, so that this important question is finally
decided. After a very warm debate (the subject having been
discussed already on Saturday, in a sitting with closed
doors), 64 members being present, 50 declared for, and
14 against the measure; certainly a remarkable result,
when we consider the aversion that still prevails with a
great part of the people to the Prussian system.
VIENNA, SEPT. 16.—The Crown Prince of Prussia
has arrived at Munchengratz, and the King of Bavaria
is expected- The King of Prussia was prevented from
accompanying his son-in-law, by the grand review at
Magdeburg. There is to be a review at Brunn, at which
the Emperor Francis, and perhaps also the Emperor of
Russia, will be present. All eyes are turned on the meet-
ing of the Sovereigns; so that important political matters
are for the present forgotten. Nobody troubles himself
about the Swiss, or the adjournment of the London Con-
ference, or the family contest in Portugal ; everybody
talks of Munchengratx, without knowing anything of the
object of the'tneeting To judge by the state of the funds,
the public seem to entertain no apprehension concerning the
fu'ure, being convinced that the Sovereigns will do their
utmost to avoid every ti ing that may endanger the conti-
nuance of peace, or have the effect of disturbing the exist-
ing relations of Europe.
STUTTGARD, SEPT. 19.—His Highness the Prince of
Montfort, with her Royal Highness the Princess, and her
children, Princess Matilda and Prince Napoleon, have
arrived here on a visit to their Majesties.
Counsellor Rodinger has been arrested to.day, and taken
to the fortress of Asperg.
VIENNA, SEPT. 17.—Five per Cent. 92 9.32 ; Four
per Cent. 5211; Bank Stock, 1,1941. —Allyemeine
Zeitung, Sept. 22.
VIENNA, SEPT. 14.—Letters from Napoli di Romania,
received by way of Trieste, are not interesting ; they make
no mention of the changes in the Ministry, said to have
been caused by the retirement of the Secretary of State,
Trikupis.

FRANKFORT, SEPT. 22.—The Journal of Smyrna
gives a letter from Alex tndria of the 14th of June, an-
nouncing the death of the Defterdar Bey, son-in-law of
Mehemet Ali, who has left a fortune estimated at above 100
millions of piastres, which he acquired en the conquest of
Cordofar and Darfour. Mehemet will remain for some time
at Cairo to gather this rich inheritance, which comes very
seasonably to relieve his financial difficulties. The equip-
ment of the fleet is prosecuted with great diligence, and
several ships have already sailed. It is thought that the
fleet is to bring back Ibrahim's troops from Syria, and to
convey Mehemet Ali to Candia. The insurrection in
the Hedjaz is spreading. The leader of the rebels is Turn
Billes, formerly in the service of the Pacha, a man of
some talent and great bravery. He has many thousand
men, and if he is not speedily checked, it will require
our army, and much bloodshed, as the inhabitants of the
countries through which he passes, readily join his
standard. He has already plundered several rich
caravans on their way to Cairo with the produc
tions of India, and till he is subdued, no caravan ca❑
be expected at Cairo. The expedition against him will
shortly set out on its march.

Another letter, of the 27th of June, says, " Mehemet
Ali returned to Alexandria on the 21st, and intended to
go to Candia, accompanied by some c +mei§ and merchants.
He means to form a naval arsenal awl dock yards at Suda,
the fine harbour of which affords every a .vantage for such
an establishment. The fleet is gone to Taurus ; part of
the army will return from Syria, the remainder be distri-
buted in the towns on the coast. Ibrahim remains for a
time at St. Jean d'Acre, to organise tie administration, to
levy new tfoops, and especially to direct the works at
Adana, which Mehemet Ali intends to fortify, and has
sent to his son the engineers in his service. Another letter,
of July 16, says Mehemet is impatient for the return of
the fleet, to go to Candia. The 7th ship of the line is to
be launched to-morrow, and the Bth in u few days. As
soon as one is launched another is begun. It is not known
how large he means his fleet to be, but if he goes on
building as be has hitherto done, it will be formidable.
Accounts from Candia, of July 25, say that the Greek
inhabitants are much alarmed lest the Egyptian system of
monopoly should be introduced in the island. They are
extremely discontented at an ordinance prohibiting all
Cretan Greeks from selling their property, and all inhabi-
tants from purchasing it, on pain of forfeiting the amount
of the purchase money. The Greeks believe that this
measure is intended to compel them to remain in the island.

further news from Constantinople.
