SWITZERLAND.
A table relative to the fininces of Switzerland,
published by the Bund of Berne, shows, that from
184 k to the end of 1856, the public fortune of the
Helretio Confederation had increased by
4,64854 f., or on an average 585,385 f. each year.
On the 31st December, 1848, it amounted to
7,078,461 f., and on the 31st December, 1856, to
11,761,315 f., including the funds of the Invalides
and the Polytechnic School, amounting together
to 4864,603 f. At the end of 1857 the situation
will not be so brilliant, as the question of Neuchatel
has caused expenses which threaten to swallow up
the savings of preceding years.

SPAIN.

The .3fadrid Gazette, of the 15th, contains the
Royal decrees on the change of Ministry. The
first is thus conceived :
"I accept the resignation of the functions of Pre-
sident of the Council of Ministers offered me by
Captain-General of the Army Ramon Narvaez,
Duke of Valencia, and I remain highly satisfied
with his eminent services, and with the prudence,
zeal, and loyalty with which he has fulfilled the
said functions.
" Given at the Palace the 15th October.
The QtEEN.
"P. PIDA.L, Minister of Foreign Affairs."
The next
decree is as follows :
" Taking
into consideration the merits and quali-
ties possessed
by Captain-General of the Navy F.
Armero y Pertaronday, I nominate him President
of my Council of Ministers. Given, &c."
The above decree is countersigned by M. Pidal.
Then come decrees accepting the resignations of the
Minister Of War, Finance, Marine, the Interior,
retiring
Foreign Affair*, and Public Works, each of which
contains the Odom. ary acknowledgment of "satis-
faction zeal, intelligence, and loyalty" of
the with ti
Atnister. These decrees are counter-
signed
by Admiral Arm,To. Two other decrees,
countersigned by M. Pidal, nominate Admiral
Arm;-ro IVlinisler of War, and c'oarga him with
the ad iattrim administration of the Department
of the Interior. Another decree charnres the
under-secretaries of the departments not fills I up
with -he ad ititeriin despatch of business ; two
others accept the resignati.mi of M. Mirfori as civil
governor of the province of Madrid, and as alcald.e
corregidor of the city : and one appoints M.
Bermudez de Castro to the former post. It was
certain that M. Mon, on his arrival from Rome,
would be appointed Minister of the Interior, and
M. Bastillos was spoken of for the Ministry of
Marine; M. Alejandro Castro for that of Finance. I. t
is again stated that the chief of the new Cabinet is in
favour of maintaining the constitution of 1845, with
organic laws as liberal as possible, consistent with
Conservative principles. It was believed that if he
be what is called a Parliamentary Minister, he W 1

varist Generals would, it was thought, be adnaitted
to the Cabinet, but it was considered likely that

posts in the
some of them would obtain important
__ _

provinces. It was rumoured that M. Pidal would
be appointed to the embassy at Rome, and General
Narvaez to that of Paris; but the report was con-
sidered unfounded.
