THE FALL OF HERAT.

A letter dated 7th of November, published in the
Moniteur de l'Arinile, and said to be written by a
foreign officer attached to the staff of the Sirdar Murad
Mirza, contains some new details relative to the opera-
tions of the Persian army after the capture of Herat.
The writer says :
"iThe first care of the Sirdar, after ho entered Herat,
was to fill the trenches and place the town in a state of
defence, in case he should be attacked by the Affghans. He.,
ordered' that the lives and properties of the inhabitants
every religion should be respected, and three soldierstril
broke into the house of a Jew were put to death. Aft 1.
whiche execution their heads were exposed eight days,

duced a salutary effect. The day after his entrance

truth of the information, be correct.
The Sirdar next consulted the Court Astrologer who had
been sent by the Shah to assist the General with kis advice.
The Astrologer was of opinion that the information received
was worthy of consideration. Murad Mirza Khan then
composed of two brigades of in-
fantry,a brigade of cavalry, and two batteries of artillery,
and gave orders to General Djeschim Khan to advance
a Carp d arntee, formed
with these troops. He recommended him to maintain his
communications with head-quarters, and promised to
support him. At the date of the latest news the Persian
expedition, after a rapid though difficult march, had
traversed the most uncultivated portion of Affghan-
istan, and had arrived at Furrah, a large town half-way
between Herat and Candahar, where he had established
himself. The Persian General had seen nothing of Goulab-
Haider Khan, who had retreated into the interior, in order
to entice his enemy to quit his base of operations. The
' Persian General, aware of his adversary's plan, resolved to
maintain himself at Farrah, where he can watch the
entire of Cabul. A groat number of the tribes of the
Seistan and of Candahar had sent their chiefs to make their
submission to the Shah of Persia. The town of Furrah is
an important strategical point for the operations which
are about to commence. It is difdoult to explain why the
Affghans did not defend it."

PRUSSIAN CIRCULAR ON THR
CHATE QFSTIO.:I7.
IZ 7t...;-,
mil;-
The following is a translation of the Note ofr-,A;37-7''';;.:'-_--717177i1A•. (ir
28th December, addressed by Count ManteufferstV 's'
the Prussian representatives at the Courts of Paris, a
a
London, Vienna, and St. Petersburg, to which
correspondent from Berlin, whose letter we yester- •
day published, alluded :
Monsieur le Count (Baron)—By 2 despatch of
the Bth of this month (December), I had the
honour to inform your Excellency of the
attitude which the King, our august master, ham
determined to take with respect to the Neu-
chatel affair. The military preparations of which
I then made mention have been since continued,
and it would have been in perfect accordance with
the arrangements of the Prussian army to vroceeci,
several days ago, to the mobilisation of those por-
tions of the army intendod for this purpose. Our
august Sovereign, in pursuing so calmly and firmly
the line he has traced out, wishes always in his
high wisdom to avoid precipitating measures, the
immediate consequences of which would be to
change entirely the phase in which this affair is
still, but which it will quit the moment the order
to move shall be given. Up to this point the
King contents *himself with the preliminary and •
unconditional liberation of the Neuchatel prisoners,
retalting, from the abolition of all proceedings
directed against them. After this liberation his
Majesty is ready to enter into negotiations as to
the future of the State of Neuchatel, nor will the
unexampled moderation of which the King has
given proof hitherto in the entire of this question
be belied when the great Powers of Europe shall
deem it their duty to make him propositions worthy
at the same time Of those who offer and of him who
accepts them.

On the other hand, the mobilisation once ordered
the situation can no longer be the same. Whoever
isacquainted with ourinilitaryarrangements knows
that this order, called for by the most Ar4ent
wishes of the army, must be followed" by speedy ac-
tion ; and that neither the dignity nor interest of
the King would permit him then to pause half-way.
It is clear that in such case the aforesaid liberation
of the prisoners would no longer be an object pro-
portionate to the sacrifices imposed on the country,
and that from that point the results attained
by the Prussian arms might affect even the
position of the Principality of Neuchatel.
The King does not at all conceal from himself
the gravity of this contingency. But if it pre-
sent itself be will not recoil before it ; and even
while pursuing his object with the energy and
perseverance of a good conscience, he will suffer
himself always to be guided by the desire of seeing
assured to Switzerland after the end of the present
conflict a place more honourable and independent
amongst the States of Europe, which will afford
them further guarantees for order and repose.
These considerations, Monsieur le Comte (Baron),
joined to a desire of affording the great Powers
of Europe that have solemnly recognised the right
of the King as Prince of Neuchatel, a new proof
of his extreme moderation as well as the possibility
of getting them to exert their diploma is influ-
ence in a manner stronger, more concentrated, and
more efficacious, on Switzerland, for the purpose
of attaining the prompt accomplishment of the
only condition on which the King insists previous
to entering into negotiations, have decLed his
Majesty, despite the many inconveniences atten-
dant on delay, to defer the mobilisation of the army
to the 15th of January, 1857.
It follows, as a matter of course, that this term
will be shortened if the Swiss authorities, under
the influence of that spirit of defiance which cha-
racterises several of their recent measures, should
hand over the Neuchatel prisoners to the Federal
assizes.

By order of the King, I invite you, Monsieur le
Comte (Baron), to bring the abovementioned reso-
lution to the knowledge of the Cabinet of Paris
(London, Vienna, St. Petersburg). It will be ap-
preciated, we cannot doubt, with the just and clear
impartiality we have a right to expect on the part
of a Government really friendly to Prussia, which,
in this question possesses both right and mode-
ration, and will have waited more than eight
years since the overthrow of its legitimate autho-
rity in Neuchatel—for more than four years since
the solemn recognition of its rights by the protocol
of London—and for more than Lur months since
the events of September last—before having re-
course to proper means to recover its rights, with
respect to which his Majesty has declared himself
ready to negotiate when a single preliminary con-
dition exacted by his dignity shall have been
fulfilled. To wait longer would be incompa-
tible with that dignity. The sovereigns of Europe
cannot but feel this. They will not wish as his
Majesty has said to his people, to make of his long
suffering a weapon against himself.
Receive, Monsieur Le Comte (Baron), the re-
newed assurance of my high consideration.

THE FISHERY BOARS.—We are in a position to anti-
cipate, to some extent, the report of the commission of
inquiry into the Fishery Board, which has just been laid
before Government, and on which its resolution to main-
tain, modify, or to abolish the board will be founded.
The report is one of much length, and enters with
greater minuteness into details than the rapid flight of
the commissioners over the fishing districts might have
led us to anticipate. It enters fully into the brand
question, on which the commissioners are divided, one
being for its total abolition, and two for its retention on
payment of a fee for each barrel branded. The report
also disposes of the general constitution, usefulness, and
influence of the board in promoting the fisheries. The
cutter finds no supporters, and in other matters of de-
tail there is a pretty strong expression of opinion that
modification is desirable. In regard to harbours in ge-
neral, and the harbour of Wick in particular, the come
missioners are as one. in the case of Wick they
strongly urge on Government the importance of aiding
in increasing the accommodation for fishing purposes,
and adduce a variety of strong and important reasons in
support of their views. It is likely that, on the assembling
of Parliament the report will be laid on the table of the
House of Commons, when we shall have an opportunity
of submitting it to our readers. In the meantime, these
remarks may be taken as indicating its general scope,
and may prepare the trade for the resolution of Govern.
meat, which is expected to be an expression of willing-
ness to retain the board and brand, on payment of a
fee for herrings receiving the latter.--Northern Ensign.
