NAPLES.
A letter from Naples of December 25 says :
" This city is perfectly quiet as to its political
state, and we are in hopes that his Majesty will
grant a general amnesty immediately after the
Queen's accouchement. The King, who is at pre-
sent at Caserta, comes to Naples daily to hold
Councils of State. The first Court ball is to be
given on the 29th, but those of the Accademia are
not yet fixed. Many other gaieties are spoken of,
and several English, French, and other foreigners
are to give parties during the carnival. Since
the late fatal accident at the arsenal, the gun-
powder has been removed to Baia, where even
if it blew up no harm could reach us from
the distance. Of course, the reports in
the newspapers would make you believe
we are at this moment over a mine ready to be
fired for our destruction, but we sleep peaceably,
and enjoy the Christmas holidays as well if not
better than you do under your cloudy sky and
probably severe cold. No people under the sun
could have demonstrated more enthusiasm at the
escape of H.M. from the attempt on his life than
the Neapolitans. If the addresses sent to the
palace and the public ceremonies performed daily
in the churches are sincere, no monarchy is more
beloved than the King of the Two Sicilies."

MR. HOWARD,burgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH Axed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.--52, Fleet-street. At
home from ten till live.

General Meeting in January. A Board is held every Thursday, at
o'clock (Rev. J. B. Owen, Chairman), to conduct the business,
when any subscriber may attend, if so disposed, the Board being at

BERLIN, March 29.—From the Royal proposi-

Sweden on the 20th instant, we learn what al-
lowance has been made by Denmark to Sweden
for the expenses of keeping up the light beacons
along the Swedish coast for the better security
of the navigation in the Cattegat and Sound.
From the whole quoti of 1,590,503 Danish
Reichsbank-thalers that falls to the lot of Sweden
and Norway to contribute, the sum of 311,307
Rbk. thalers is to bs deducted for this purpose,
leaving 1,279,196 to he paid in 40 half-yearly pay-
ments, the balance unpaid continuing to bear in-
terest at four per cent. The Government has
called upon the General Council to use all despatch
in its deliberations, so that, it' possible, the treaty '
may be ratified by April 1. The amount to be
paid to Denmark is to be supplied out of the Com-
merce and Navigation Fund.

NAPLES.

The Nord contains a violent article against the
Morning Post, and other London journals, for hav-
ing published pretended letters from Naples on the
cuffla di silenzio, or new instrument of torture, of
which the English journal has given a woodcut,
and declares that the said letters were sent to it,
but that, knowing them to be full of calumnies; it
refused to publish them. It says that the publica-
tion is an electoral manceuvre on the part of the
Morning Post, which is highly discreditable to it.

PRUSSIA.

BEnnsq, March 29.---From the Royal proposi-
tion that was laid before the Four Estates of
Sweden on the 20th instant, we learn what al-
lowance has been made by Denmark to Sweden
for the expenses of keeping up the light beacons
along the Swedish coast for the better security
of the navigation in the Cattegat and Sound.
From the, whole quota of 1,590,503 Danish
Reichsbank-thalers that falls to the lot of Sweden
and Norway to contribute, the sum of 311,307
Rbk. thalers is to be deducted for this purpose,
leavitt 1,279,196 to be paid in 40 half-yearly pay-
ments, the balance unpaid continuing to bear in-
terest at four per cent. The Government has
called upon the General Council to use all despatch
in its deliberations, so that, if possible, the treaty
may be ratified by April 1. The amount to be
paid to Denmark is to be supplied out of the Com-
merce and Navigation Fund.

MIDDLESEX,

The metropolitan county, the representation of which
went begging after the retirement of Mr. B, Osborne,
now promises to be the scene of a fierce contest. Vie.
count Chelsea has rather tardily entered the field as a
Conservative candidate, but his cause has been zealously
espoused by all the influential members of his party,
and they appear likely to make up by vigour and
earnestness for their previous inaction. Lord Chelsea
claims the suffrage of the electors on several grounds,
among others that fie has voted again 4 the grants to
Maynootb, and also against measures_ having a tendency
to infringe on the due observance of the Sabbath. lie
claims credit for having given Lord Palmerston a disin-
terested and ungrudging support during the .war ; but
be disapproves Ln aggressive foreign policy, and "can-
not allow that, in return J`,7 the energy he displayed in
the condnot of the war with Russia, Lord Palmerston is
entitled to that pledge of blind and unlim.i4d, confidence
rconfidencedence
d B
which his personal adherents claim for hire: -41
of
Grosvenor is very unpopular with a numerous
the constituency in consequence of his Sunday Observ-
ance Bill, and as Mr. R. Hanbury, jun., has no pre-
vieus Parliamentary experience to appeal to, and
Lord Chelsea, who has bad a seat in Parliament, with
a single interval, since 1841, promises to devote his
whole time to the locid interests of his constituents, he
appears to embark in the contest with some advantages
in his favour. Mr. lanbury has, during the last few
days, attended various public meetings of the electors,
and has entered into an exposition of his political princi-
ples which has been pronounced to be satisfactory. He
promises to give Lord Palmerston's Government a
hearty, general support, and to pay especial .attention to
measures of moral and social improvement. H
