GREECE.

The following is the speech delivered by the King
of GREECE at the prorogation of the session of the
Greek Parliament at Athens, on the 9th inst.:—
" Gentlemen Deputies and Senators,—Before putting
an eod to the present Parliamentary session, my heart
feels an ardent desire, In presenting myself personally
within these walls to hid you farewell, t 3 express my
satisfaction at the devotion you have manifested towards
me personally, and for the support which you have ren-
dered to my Government i❑ circumstances of difficulty.
This support on your part, which was the expression of
the national sentiment, encouraged my Government to
pursue the path cf na!ional honour which it had re-
solved to follow, and, combined with the ready expres-
sion of good will on the vat cf the Allied Powers, has
conducted U 3 to an honourable solution of the difficulties
which has arisen.

."The gewrous and patriotic approbation with which
you have adopted the budget of 1851, is an act of the
highest importance, through which we shall be able to
conform to the constitution in the fullest eegree.
What adis more to the satisfaction which I experi-
ence on this occasion is the canonical recognition, so
much desired by the people, of the independence of the
Greek Church, and consequently the re-establishment
of relations with the Chief Church at Constantinople.
If the short space of time which has passed between the
cocap:etion of this important work and the close of the
session has not allowed my Gov3rnment to submit to
you the projets of the d:tLrent laws which will become
necessary respecting the church of the kingdom, I have
not the less desired, in addressing for the last time at
this period the Nlennb.:rs of the Legislature, to announce
to them this memorable event.

" Hiving resolved, on th;cecasion of my approaching.
departure, to entrust th regency to the Qneeu, my well-
beloved Consort, I in doing to furni.h the nation with
a striking prof of my care 'and my confidence. In your
passing with so much resadiness the law relating to it,
3ou have furnished a new proof of your attachment to
my per on. During iny absence you will all surround
and support the Q.wtn, thus persevi,ring in your fide-
lity to the throne, and at the Lame time maintain among
yourselves an unshaken union.
" I now thclare this, the third and last session of the
second legiAative periA of the Chambers, to be closed."

THE LEGITIMATIST CONGRESS

AT WIESBADEN.
The Cookntz Gazette has the following from \Vies
baden of the 241:

" The much-talked-of arrangement between the two
parties of the Bourbons cannot by any means be re-
garded as concluded. Hitherto the Duke de Bordeaux
has avoided every kind of approach to anything having
even the shadow of prejudice to the legitimacy of his
pretensions, but he has never concealed his readiness at
an accommodation. This seems now to be met. Count
Salvandy, Minister of Louis Philippe, has been here for
some time, and there is every reason to hope that there
will be an accommodation, which will probably result in
the fusion of the two branches, by the Duke do Bor-
deaux adopting ono of the sons of the Duke of Orleans.
There are a great many Catholic olorgy and French
nobility here at present. The Duke de Bordeaux has
been fully occupied since his stay here; his mornings
are occupied in giving private audiences; ho sees every
visitor; scrupulously listens to every counsel that may
be offered, and as opinions are very diverse respecting
the present situati,n of France, he assiduously collects
all information. It is known, however, that the policy
be recommends is that of M. Berryer and General St.
Priest, a noble and expansive policy, in which all the
great interests of society may find protection.
