Military operations against Prince Danilo will
shortly be begun. The Presse of Constantinople
complains loudly that Austria connives at the
escape of the mountaineers, and receives their
families across the frontier. There have been
some serious disturbances in Bosnia, owing to
conflicts between the Greeks and Roman Catholics.
The Pacha of BL 01151 SA has ordered the expul-
sion of all the contumacious Greeks within two
months.

There are three new Ministers without port-

olios.

" BERNE, MARan 30.

"The French government has again urged the.
Federal government on the establishment of con-
sulates at Chaudefonds and Basle, for the reason
that they are indispensable to facilitate the visa
of passports for the French subjects, as well as for
foreigners in Switzerland."

The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post

says :

" A Belgian paper has stated that the Emperor
of the French is likely to visit the Queen at Os-
borne this summer. lam able to assure you no
such visit has ever been contemplated, or is at all
likely to take place."

FRANCE.
PARIS, WEDNESDAY.

It is not true that despatches have been received
from China, to the effect that it was necessary to
push the expedition up to Pekin. It is only known
that the demands of the Powers, in the fora, of a
note, had been forwarded to the Emperor of C.iina
by the two Envoys.
The Patric, in a somewhat violent article, says
that opposition must henceforth be made to the
usurpation of Perim by England. Unless Europe
e willing to abandon the exclusive navigation of
the Red Sea to England, and unless the integrity of
Turkey be a mere fiction, it is indispensable, with-
out delay, to treat the occupation of Perim as •
amongst the most important of political existing
questions.
It is said that several General Officers who served
under Marshal Pelissier in the Crimea, and who
were intimate with the superior officers of the
English army, are to accompany the new Ambas-
sador to London, with tha view of being presented
to the Queen. Among them are mentioned Gene-
rals MacMahon, de Salles, Trochu, Lebeuf, Mel-
linet, and others.
The session of the Legislative Corps which was to
close on the 18th April will, it is thought, be pro-
longed in consequence of the Finance annaiittee
not being able to get up its report in time. The
sum of 60,000,000 f. accorded, with some difficulty,
by the Government, for the embellishment of Paris,
is on the ground of the improvementb,ing as much
with a view to strategy as mere ornament.
A. new stfcret soci,ty, called the Icarians, has been
discovered at Troyes, and eight of the chiefs were
brought to trial last Friday and convicted Noble,

SWITZERLAND.
A Paris letter, in the independance of Brussels,
has the following on the subject of the negotiations
between France and Switzerland relative to pave-
ports :
" The French Government no longer requires,
absolutely and without exception, persons obtain-
ing passports to present themselves before the
French diplomatic agents. In its last despatch
communicated to the Federal (Amed, it says :
Diplomatic agents abroad are authorised to viser
passports, without requiring persons to appear,
provided they belong to the country, and that the
passports have been granted by tee Government
with a special recommendation, and on its own
responsibility. But a question has arisen re-
specting the interpretation to be given to the words
by the Government.' The Cabinet of the Tuile-
ries recognises only one Government, the Federal
one, and accordingly the French Minister declares
that he can only viser passports transmitted to him
by it. In Switzerland, on the contrary, it is con-
tended that as the country consists of a conf) dera-
tion of twenty-two sovereign States, the French
legation ought to be authorised to viser the pass-
ports addressed to it by the Governments of the
several cantons. Switzerland believes that this iu•
terpretation would present greater guarantees than
that which the French Minister proposes, inasmuch
as each cantonal government possesses better means
of obtaining information respecting individuals
than the Federal government ; but the Minister
replies that the Federal Government represents the
twenty-two cantons, and that the cale!net of the
Tuileries in saying the 'Government of the country'
evidently intended to designate the Federal Go-
vet nuient and no other ; whilst as to the cantonal
Governments being better able to give information
respecting persons, he remarks that each G rvern-
ment can transmit its informatien to the Federal
Government, which is in a better situation than
the French legation at Berue to know the degree
of confidence which at a given moment such or
such a cantonal government should inspire."
