FRANCE.
PARIS, THURSDAY.
The Congress held its second sitting to-day.
We have reason to believe that the first Four
.rnints were definitively agreed on by all parties at
the first day's sitting of the Congress.
Russia is expected to make the firstmove towards
the change from a Conference to a Congress. It is
I,ellorted that this will be done immediately after
the signature of the preliminaries. Russia will
urge that the details regarding the Danubian Prin-
6Palities and the Free Navigation of the Danube
4te matters belongingto the interests of Europe in
general.

Russia will without difficulty accede to the demand
that the islands cat Aland 5h...11n he apin fortified.
Ou the ether hand, she is said not to ititt-lad to
restore Kars, except on condition of receiving some
equivalent in return.
It is true that the offer of the Aland Islands was
rejected by Sweden in the autumn of 1854, after
the capture and destruction of Bomarsund ; but it
was for the same reason that France and England
abandoned them, namely, that they were consi-
dered untenable without the possession of Finland.
The treaty of the 2d Dec., 1854, had the effect of
inducing King Oscar to come forward more boldly
than he had hitherto done, being led to believe t hat
Austria was going to take an active part in the war.
In the month of March last year the negotiations
were opened at Paris by Count Tascher (the
grand master of the household of the Empress
Eugenie), who is alike related to the present dynas-
ties of France and Sweden. King Oscar demanded
a guarantee for the continued possession of his ter-
' ritory and a powerful material support. In conse-
quence of this a lively correspondence took place
between the Emperor of the French and the King
and the Crown Prince of Sweden,- and a detailed
report of the resources of Sweden was transmitted
to Paris. The King demanded pecuniary subsi-
dies and an army of a hundred thousand men,
the operations of whom should be shared and
supported by sixty thousand Swedes. If they
succeeded in conquering Finland, it was to be
given again to Sweden. In the meantime,
when the negotiations had proceeded thus far,
the allies decided on confining their operations
for the year 1855 to the Crimea, with merely
a demonstration in the Baltic. The real bona
fide Baltic campaign was adjourned, and it was
only after the fall of Sebastopol that the negotia-
tions with Sweden were renewed by the memorable
mission of General Ca.nrobert to Stockholm, which
led to the conclusion of the treaty of November,
which, however, is only to be considered in the light
of a provisional one ; and there is every reason to
believe that if the Conferences at Paris are broken
off, and hostilities recommence, Sweden will boldly
throw off her neutrality, and take an active and
honourable part in the campaign, for which every
preparation has been making for a long time, both
as regards the navy, the land forces, and the artil-
lery.

THE CRIMEA.
The following extract from the official journal of
Russian military operations in the Crimea, trans-
mitted to the Emperor by General Luders, appears
in the Gazette de St. Petersbourg

" From the 26th of January to the 4th of February
there was no change in the state of affairs in the Crimea.
The artillery of the fortifications of the no,th, and the
Carbineers in the posts established on Mackenzie's•hill,
have continued to fire on the enemy.
"In the night from the 28th to the 29th of Jan., six
boats (cutters) endeavoured to pass our guard vessel in
the Bay of Sebastopol, near the suken steamer Vladimir.
The officer commanding the guard vessel gave the
the batteries of the north side opened fire on the boats,
and our troops near the shore stood to their arms, and
proceeded towards the ravines. After a cannonade of
half an hour the boats retired.
" In the night from the 29th to the 30th of January,
enseigne de vaissatu, Berovikoff, was rowing guard in
the Bay of Sebastopol, when his chaloupe was met off
the Paul Battery by some of the enemy's boats, which
endeavoured to cut off his retreat. To the grapeshot
fired from toe small gun on board our chaloupe the
enemy replied by a fire of musketry and some grape
from a piece in one of the cutters. At a signal given
by the officer of our chaleupe the batteries of the north
side opened a cannonade, but the enemy had
dis-
appeared."

Bavaria has laid three propositions before the
Diet, which, if carried, will be a grand step to-
wards Federal Reform.

The police have made such discoveries in regard
to the late abstraction of despatches at Potsdam,
that the affair is likely to assume the shape of
high treason.
