SWITZERLAND.

The Bund, in its number of the 26th instant,
publishes a document relative to the Neuchatel
affair. It is a message from the Federal Council
to the Federal Assembly. The diplomatic portion
of the document is the conclusion. It says :
As regards the diplomatic representatives of the
Powers, if we except Prussia, they have not taken any
steps with us in the matter, except some of them have
taken advantage of their position to recommend us either
officially or officiously to use moderation towards the
prisoners under arrest. Once we were able to support
ourselves upon the fact generally acknowledged, that in
no manner will the rules of humanity permitted under
such circumstances be deviated from.
" Should, eventually, diplomatic negotiations take
place they can, in our opinion, only be opened upon the
basis of the recognition of the complete independence of
Neuchatel as regards foreign States. We should ener-
getically reject all overtures that did not rest upon that
basis. We are also of opinion that in our position it is
not for us to take the initiative in this respect.
"JuAice will quietly follow its legal course, and to
guarantee it from anything, of a nature to disturb it, to
nip in the bud any attempt of the sort, it will be neces-
sary for the Federal troops to occupy the canton of
Neuchatel until the investigation has terminated."
The Gazette of St. Gali publishes the following :
" M. G. de Petit•Pierre, Count of Wesdehlen, the poli-
tical leader of the insurrection, ex-member of the Diplo-
matic Corps of PrUssia, afterwards Councillor of State at
Neuchatel, was in relation with the Berlin Court by his
liaison with the Countess of Waldburg-Truchsien, of a
mediatised family related to the Royal House. His
complete correspondence,consistingof 44 letters, has been
found. They contain the idea and the plans of execution
of the insurrection, which are stated with much clear-

SHIPPING RETURNS.

The shipping returns of the Board of Trade for the
Fist month have been issued, and again show a great in-
crease in the employment of ve=sels, in which, on this
occasion, foreign as well as British, have participated.
The activity is in some degree attributable to the move-
ments in the grain trade. The arrivals of Russian ves-
sels have been 25, representing an aggregate of 5,741
tons, and the ciearances 17, representing 4,012 tone.
Subjoined are the general totals :

SWEDEN.

Those who take an interest in the affairs of the
north of Europe have not perhaps passed unno-
ticed the fact published in the Swedish official jour-
nal of the appointment of a mixed Commission of
six Swedes and six Norgewians to meet at Chris-
tiania under the presidency of the Viceroy, for the
better determination of the act of union between
the two countries. It is worthy of remark that,
though the sister kingdoms have been upwards of
40 years under the same ruler their mutual obli-
gations, in the event of war, are still undefined.
It is in order to supply this important omission,
and to obviate any discussion that might arise in
the hour of action, and prevent
.any fatal indeci-
sion in the time of peril, that this Commission has
been named.

it is evident, from the serious attention given to
the minutest details of the defence of the country,
that the Swedish Government well understands the
danger to which the honourable and independent
position taken up by the signature of the Treaty of
the 21st Nov., 1855, exposes it. Sweden appears
well disposed to co-operate in raising a mighty
bulwark in the North against Muscovite ambition,
but she naturally expects that the sympathies of
the Scandinavian people will be supported by the
Western Powers, and allowed to develope them-
selves by a still closer union, and that statesmen
will more fully understand the capabilities of the
North, and its vital importance in the great Euro-
pean questions of the day.

but the advice on the above races will astonish all, as
1,000 to 1 can be obtained about the double event. I
am positive one, if both, does not come of. Recollect, I
named Mr. Sykes and Crown Pigeon last year (first and
second). Apply early, or the long price will be lust.

THE QUEEN OF OUDE HOAX.—On Saturday Mr. G.
R. Collie attended before the sitting magistrates, at the
Public-office, to inquire whether any measures had been
taken by the local police for the detection and punish-
ment of the individual who, under the character of an
agent from the Queen of Oude, has been lately attempt-
,g to impose upon the good people cf this town. Mr.
Collis said that since he made his previous application
he had been to London, and had seen Capt. Brandon,
obtaining from him the original letters. The mayor also
had heard from Capt. Brandon, and there could no
longer be any doubt that the man Wyndham was a
not.' lous swindler. He wished, therefore, to know
what steps tad been taken by the police for his ap-
prehension. Mr. Kynnersley said as yet the authori-
ties at Birmingham had no legal evidence, and it would
be beet for Capt. Brandon to come down here, as there
appeared something mysterious in the transaction.—

TIME ULSTER BANK.

The Belfast journals refer in laudatory terms to
the proceedings at the last meeting of the Ulster
Banking Company, at which a dividend of 8 per
cent. per annum was declared, and a most satisfac-
tory report read and adopted. The reserve fund
of this establishment now exceeds 46,0001., and
its deposits are rapidly increasing, chiefly from the
agricultural districts. The managers and clerks
have had a bonus presented to them, in recognition
of their unremitting zeal and attention to the inte-
rests of the bank. The salaries of the directors
have also been raised, owing to the increased busi-
ness now devolving upon them.

This company is established for two reasons—first, because
it is wanted ; and second, because it will pay. India wants
cheap means of conveyance for her produce; water conveyance
is cheaper than any possible mode of conveyance by land ; and
ten thousand miles of this cheap water conveyance will be
afforded by the great rivers when properly navigated by steam.
The last dividend of the Gauges Steam Company was 48 per
cent. per annum, and the latest returns of a Navigation Com-
pany on the Godavery was 55 per cent. The field, however,
is far too large to be adequately filled by local effort, and an
English Company is necessary, which, with adequate capital,
will render available the resources of European science.

MURDER AT SPIKE ISLAND.

The following statement appears in one of the
Dublin papers this morning :--
" On Friday evening an occurrence took place at the
convict depot, Spike Island, which resulted in the death
of one of the turnkeys employed on the island, under
circumstances of peculiar atrocity. The name of the
victim is John Reddy. He was a man Of excellent cha-
racter, had been a long time employed in the service,
and has left a widow and family to deplore his loss.
Some time since he had, in the discharge of his duty, to
report a ccuvict named Power for misbehaviour, for
whichkpunishment was awarded by the governor. This
excited feelings of the deepest resentment in the mind of
Power, whose vengeance was executed with fatal result
on Friday evening. It appear 3 that between seven and
eight o'clock, the time for closing the cells having ar-
rived, Reddy visited all the cells, and among them he
inspected that in which Power and two other convicts
were located. lie was in the act of extinguishing the
light, his bade being turned to the convicts, when Power
came behind him, and with a piece of iron, a portion of
his bedstead, struck the unfortunate man a violent blow
on the head. Reddy staggered and fell, bleeding prc-
fusely. The blow bad fractured the skull, and life
would, even were no other blo* struck, have soon been
extinct. While the victim was lying on the ground,
another convict, a man named Norris. is stated to have
come over and struck him. Before any assistance could
arrive Reddy had breathed his last. The blow inflicted
by Power had fractured the skull immediately above
the ear, And had clearly severed the ear from the
head. The culprits have been placed under arrest,
and are awaiting the result of a coroner's inquest.
The chief criminal, Power, belongs to the county
Waterford, and was convicted at the last assizes of that
county for cattle stealing, and sentenced to seven years'
penal servitude. His conduct since his removal to Spike
Island depot was very bad, and he is stated to have fre-
quently uttered threats against the deceased. The coro-
ner has been written to, but has not yet arrived. Great
regret is felt for the deceased. In addition to his posi-
tion in the depot, he was proprietor of a shop at Queens-
town, and was much respected in the locality.",

DENMARK.

A letter from Copenhagen, in the _Hamburg
News, says :—" The resignation of M. Andrea, the
Minister of Finance, has caused much surprise. It
was well known that considerable disaccord existed
in the Ministry, and M. de Scheele and M. Andrea
was generally thought to be on very unfriendly
terms, but no one expected a rupture so soon.
Nothing positive is known as to the cause of the
retirement of M. Andrea, but it is very probable
that it is in consequence of some differences with
the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The opinions of
the two Ministers were at variance as to the diplo-
matic agents who are to be accredited at foreign
courts, the reorganisation of the Danish diplomatic
body being now under discussion. If M. Andrea
be replaced by a partisan of the ordinance of the
26th July, 1855, it is probable that other Ministers
will resign."

THEATRE ROYAL, BIRMINGHAM.

During the week, Madame Celeste and Mr. B. Web-
ster have been starring at our theatre, playing to crowded
houses, in the drama of "Janet Pride." Their audiences,
each evening, have acknowledged the thrilling effects of
the piece, and eloquently borne tribute to the, consum-
mate ability of the two great artistes, not only by the
customary manifestations of applauding cheers, but by
the irrepres,ible tear of compassion for the trials and
sufferings of the heroine of the piece. The unforced ex-
pression of intense misery, the natural delineation of
affectionate solicitude, the touching portrayal of pa.
thetic situations, the exhilarating firmness of mind under
false and terrible accusations, and of gratifying absence
of all mere stage claptrap, which distinguish Madame
Celeste's acting in "JalietPride," are qualifications which
render her performance valued everywhere and by all
classes ; and none more than the people of Birming-
ham can appreciate her sterling talent and histrionic
accomplishment. Mr. B. Webster represents the
abandoned drunkard to perfection. To sustain
such a character the metropolitan lessee shows that
something more than mere staggering and confused
vocalisation is requisite. As in the madness of" Hamlet,"
so is there method in the intoxication of Mr. Webster's
Richard Pride. The anxious audience fully believe
'in the verity of the drunken fit, so truthfully is it
feigned. Every movement, gesture and word confirm
the delusion, and bespeak the clear conception and mas-
terly execution of the finished actor. Pride's ma.
ments of bitter reflection meet also with a genial expo-
sitor in Mr. Webster ; and the gleams of better feeling
which glance across his conscience, prove that in the
drink besotted convict there still remains that soul of
goodness, which we have Suakspere's warranty for
declaring exists in all things evil. Dicky Trotter
was played in a really clever style by Mr. Atkins ; Miss
Vivash performed her part of Minnie creditably ;
Mr. Gardiner's Bernard was respectable ; and the
scenery and properties were excellent additions to the
proper representation of this popular and startlipg
drama. Our readers will be glad to learn that the two
celebrated perioraiers will continue their stay at our
theatre a week longer, and appear in a variety of cha-
racters they have made famous.— Birmingham, Mercury.

SWITZERLAND.

The Bund, iii its nutnber of the Nth instant,
publishes a document relative to the Neuchatel
affair. It is a message from the Federal Council
to the Federal Assembly. The diplomatic portion
of the document is the conclusion. It says :
"As regards the diplomatic representatives of the
Powers, if we except Prussia, they have not taken any
steps with us in the matter, except some of them have
taken advantage of their position to recommend us either
officially or officiously to use moderation towards the
prisoners under arrest. Once we were able to support
ourselves upon the fact generally acknowledged, that In
no manner will the rules of humanity permitted under
such circumstances be deviated from.

" Shoucl, eventually, diplomatic negotiations take
place they can, in our opinion, only be opened upon the
basis of the recognition of the complete independence of
Neuchatel as regards foreign States. We should ener-
getically reject all overtures that did not rest upon that
basis. We are also of opinion that in our position it is
not for us to take the initiative in this respect.
"Justice will quietly follow its legal course, and to
guarantee it from anything of a nature to disturb it, to
nip in the bud any attempt of the sort, it will be neces-
sary for the Federal troops to occupy the canton of
Neuchaiel until the investigation has terminated."

The Gazette of St. Gah publishes the following:

"M. G. de Petit-Pierre, Count of Wesdehlen' the poli
tical leader of the insurrection, ex-member of the Diplo-
matic Corps of Prussia, afterwards Cotmcillor of State at

TRIAL (OF THE MURDERER OF CAPT.
GRAVES.

MALTA, SEPT. 24.

Yesterday morning the trial of Guiseppe Meli for the
murder of Captain Graves commenced. A large number
of witnesses have been examined on both sides.
The prisoner had not only acknowledged the act, but
bad boasted of it ; and on hearing from the magistrate
that the unfortunate captain had died on Thursday, he
remarked that it was a judgment from God, for it was
on that day Captain Graves had ordered his boat to be
pulled up. There is no one from the judge downwards
who is not morally certain that Meli is guilty. He is
anything but Prepossessing in appearance, and is dressed
up for the occasion in dark green coat with a velvet
collar, which makes him both look and feel awkward,
from his having been habituated to the loose costume of
a Maltese boatman ; he appears about 35 years old, and
looks as unconcerned as any one in the court.
The court, for Malta, is tolerably full, but has never
been crowded, and the room in which the trial is going
on would all through have at any time he'd many more
than was present. The sentence will probably be given
this evening.

THE SUPPRESSED CONVENTS IN SARDINIA,—The Sar•
dinian Government has addressed a circular to all the
superiors of the convents suppressed by the law of May
29, 1855, summoning them to deliver up to the authl:ri-
ties all the title•deeds, contracts, and registers still in
their pos: eision, it having been discovered that the
clause of the above law relating to such documents has
been in many cases eluded.

THE T 1 & ROY AL, BIUMINGHAM.

During the week, Madame Celeste and Mr. B. Web-
ster have been starring at our theatre, playing to crowded
houses, in the drama of "Janet Pride." Their audiences,
each earaveg, have acknowledged the thrilling effects of
the piece, and eloquently borne tribute to the consuna-
ma' e ability of the two great artistes, not only by the
customary manifestations of applauding cheers, but by
the irrepres:ible tear of compassion for the trials and
sufferings of t'se heroine of the piece. The unforced ex•
pressien f intcn,e misery, the natural delineation of
affectionate solicitude, the toulhing portrayal of pa.
thetie yiteations, the exhilarating firmness of mind under
fa'sn and terrible accusations, and of gratifying absence
of all mere stage claptrap, which distinguish Madame
Cele:ste.'s acting in "Janet Pride," aro qualifications which
render Ler performance valued every where and by all
classes ; and none more than the people of Birming-
ham can appreciate her sterling talent and histrionic
accomplishinenr. Mr. r, . Webster ..represents the
abandoced drunkard to perfection. To sustain
such a character the metropolitan lessee shows that
something more than mere staggering and confused
v,calisat ion is requisite. As in the madness cf " Hamlet,"
so is tht ra method in the intoxication of Mr. Webster's
Richard Pride. The anxious audience fully believe
in the verity of the drunken fit, so truthfully is it
'feigned. Every movement, gesture and word confirm
the deludan,, anti bespeak the eear cpncption and mas-
terly execut:on of the finished actor. Pride's mo-
ments t f bitter reflection meet a'so with a genial expo-
sitor in Mr. Webster ; and the gleams cf better feeling
which glance acrosa his canecience, prove that in the
drink besotted convict there still remains that soul of
goodness, which we have Stiakspsre's warranty for
declaring exists in al things evil. -Dicky Trotter
was played in a really clever style by Mr. Atkins ; Miss
Vivash performed Altr part of Minnie creditaliy ;
Mr. Cardiner's Bernard was respectable ; and the
scenery and properties were eicellent additions to the
proper representation of this popular and startling
drama. Our realers will be glad to learn that the two
celel.rated performers will continue their stay at our
theatre a week longer, and appear in a variety of chit-
racte• s they have made famous,— Birmingham Mercury.

AUSTRIA.

Another letter from Vienna, of the 25th, in the
Cologne Gazette, says :—" It is stated, in well-
informed circles, that the last accounts from Na-
ples are more favourable, and give reason to hope
that the King will accept the ultimatum, of the
Western Powers. His acceptance, it is said, will
be accompanied by a manifesto, in which his Ma-
jesty will point out the motives which have in-
duced him to yield. It is thought that this deal'•
ment will be couched somewhat in the form of a
protest. Orders were sent to Verona a few days
since for several regiments and some batteries of
artillery to hold themselves in readiness to march
at a moment's notice. These troops are des-
tined to reinforce those now in the legations. The
IDanish envoy, M. de Billow, has had second con-
ference with Count de Bud, but he has not deli-
vered any written document to our Cabinet, nor
any letter from the King of Denmark to the
Emperor."
A letter from Vienna of the 23d says :—" Our
situation in the Lombard and Venetian provinces
is incontestably identical with that of the Neapo-
litan Government towards its subjects ; and, con-
sequently, the first spark of civil war and insur-
rection in the Two Sicilies would cause a confla-
gration in our Italian possessions. You could
not form an idea of the sensation produced
here amongst the public and in Governmental
regions by the resolution of the two great
maritime powers to send a strong squadron
to Naples. Count de Buol, in accordance
with orders from the Emperor, has hastened
to address an identical note, strongly worded, to
the Court of Paris and to the government of Lon-
don, calling their serious attention to the grave
responsibility which they may incur by carrying
eat their coercive demonstrations against the calm-
Bourqueney recently presented to the Count Buol
was drawn up in such terms as intimate a certain
delay in sending the combined squadron to Naples,
but the news received yesterday in this city presages
the immediate execution of this measure. It is be-
lieved here that Gen. de Martini, our representative
at Naples, hasreceived not only from Count de Buol,
but personally from the Emperor, the most positive
verbal instructions to act efficaciously on the minds of
the king and of the members of the royal family. These
instructions oven go the length of authorising our
envoy to favour the project which is ascribed to
King Ferdinand of abdicating in favour of his son,
, the Duke of Calabria."

LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1856

The Neapolitan pear is rapidly ripening. The
pickle in which the rod for the magnanimous
BOMBA. has for some time been immersed has be-
come complete brine. The crisis cannot long bit
deferred ; and we are rapidly approaching the
beginning of the end of the BOURBON dynasty in
the kingdom of the Two Sicilies. The time-
honoured adage, " quern deus vault perdere Arius
dementat," is likely to 'eceive a new and powerfui
illustration, and FERDINAND will serve to point
a moral and adorn a tale for future generations.
The state of the case requires no very compli-
cated argument to explain. BOMBA desires "to
do what he will with his own," or, in other
words, to exercise the most fearful and heartless
cruelty towards his unforunate subjects. He
is perfectly well aware that he could not persevere
in his reckless course for a single week but for the
anticipation of foreign intervention. He drives
the people of all classes to madness, but the
Austrian bayonets "looming in the future" have
hitherto restrained the sufferers. We trusted
that the powerful remonstrances not only of
France and England, but even of Austria, would
have proved effectual, and were naturally reluc-
tant to draw the sword until every other means
of an amicable arrangement had been exhausted.
But the heart of BOMBA was hardened. He treated
the judicious counsel which he received with de-
rision, and replied with would-be gibes and re-
proaches to Powers that could crush him without
the slightest trouble or difficulty.
He must have had some secret assurances of
sympathy and support, or he would not have ven-
tured on so daring a course ! And recent events
prove that such has been the case. The CZAR
has apparently been more grateful for the undis-
guised solicitude of BOMBA in his favour than
Princes generally aro. He is, at the risk of in-
volving his empire in another war, even more
onerous than that in which it has already been
engaged, making a movement in favour of the
Model Despot of Naples. Prince GORTSCIIAKOFF,
the new Russian Chancellor, has published a cir-
cular, as bumptious—,to use a vulgar but expressive
phrase—as any that emanated from his prede-
cessor before the events of the late war had
taught Russia a better estimate of its own real
strength and its inability to cope with the mari-
time Powers. He now professes his adhesion to
the principle of "no)b-intervention" in the affairs
of ether nations, in the most stringent interpre-
tation of the term, and cites the cases of Greece
and Naples as instances, in the former whereof
an interference is actually existing, and the latter
in which it is threatened. He, therefore, thinks
that nothing can now justify "the continued pre-
sence of foreign troops on the soil of Greece !"
We shall, however, for the present restrict
ourselves to the Neapolitan question, without
further entering into the reasons which rendered
the (nurse adopted towards Greece not merely
