Freneh advisers. The French CF,binet acts, through
the medium of its ambassador, in favour of the Count
DE TRAPANI, and against Don CARLOS'g. son. The
amendment for the exclusion of that pretender and
his family has been suggested for that purpose. The
Neapolitan Envoy, Prince DE CARINI, scarcely quits
the French Embassy or M. MARTINEZ DE La ROSA'S
residence, and he is doing his utmost to procure the
adoption of the amendment."
The same journal contains a long article on the
exertions of Russia to keep up her internal trade with
China, from which we make the following extract :

" Since the English forced the gate of the celestial
empire, Russia has displayed a singular activity to fortify
and increase its relations with China. There is besides
at Kiachta, an entrepot at Zuruchaitu. Three great
roads are actually employed in communicating between
both countries. Two of these roads pass from Siberia
by the plateau of Mongolia towdrds the Chinese fron-
tier; another strikes from Kiachta, and takes a south.
east direction towards Pekin; and the other goes round
by Nertschinck, Zuruchaitu, Tsitchar, and crossing the
Black River before arriving at Pekin. A new commu-
nication which has been lately established• between
Siberia and China, begins at Irtsich and moves by Baikal.
This road answers directly the relations which Russia
seeks to establish with China.

" To give an idea of the development of Russian com-
merce in these eastern countries, we need only say that
in 1829, the merchandise brought to the fair of Nijni
Novogorod amounted only to 100,000,000 of francs, and
in 1842 they exceeded 160,000,000 of francs. Russian
cotton manufactures figure for 30,000,000 f., and the other
goods consist of cloth made for the north of China; of
velvet, silks, iron, steel, and copper works, glass, porce-
lain, soap, &a.
" The increase of the fair of Nijni Novogorod is a re-
markable indication that Russia seeks to create a c )m-
-merce which she can maintain in defiance of European
competition. It is in Asia she seeks for markets where
she may command, until English competition meet her
on that ground. That day, however, has not yet arrived,
and Great Britain cannot now complain of the move-
ments of Russia in those countries where there is no
true industry, and where her productions are but little
known. The transit across Russia has become impossi-
ble, so much so that Prussia, that sent its cloths to China,
has been obliged to give up the trade. In the far east
are markets which Russia alone commands—where she
finds neither competition from England, France, nor
Belgium, and where everything is prepared for her own
partiw4lar interest."

for the meeting were issued last evening.
THE BANKING ALMANACK AND DIRECTORY, 1846
—This work, which is the first of the kind, will be
found most useful for bankers and shareholders in
general. In addition to the calendar, which by the
way is printed in a beautiful form, it contains a list
nnial law,
of meetings of banks and many other public corn-
-tinder the month in which they are
panies rangeu 1.5i0n returns, foreign ex-
held, bank-note circu.,...
changes, a digest of banking any eouerc
and a list of the joint•stock Waits of Elland
and Wales, with their fixed issues Ott Battled
by the new Act. We have also lists of the
Scotch and Irish joint-stock banks, with the
number of partners when that can be ascertained,
the paid-up capital, the price of shares now, and the
amount paid originally for each share. The rise which
has taken place in the shares of some of the well•con-
ducted banks is enormous. The shares in the British
Linen Company, for instance, which originally cost
1001., are now worth 2261., those of the Royal Bank
have risen from 1001. to 186/., and in the Belfast
North Banking Company the shares have risen 100
per cent. The Bank of Ireland exhibits the same
prosperity. Besides ample banking and commercial
intelligence, there is a great variety of miscellaneous
information suited to every class.

A most daring burglary was committed on Thurs-
day night, in a shop at Bottisham, occupied by Mr. Car-
,
ter of Swaffham. The burglars entered by breaking a
hole through the back wall, and stole 201bs. of tea, a
quantity of wearing apparel, and other goods to the value
of 301. or 40/. Part of the latter was found by a labourer
on Saturday, concealed in a haulm-stack. The murder-
ous intentions of the burglars were evident by two club-
sticks which they left on the premises. They left also a
clue to their discovery: leaving behind in their haste a
macintosh, which has been sponged.--Cantbridge Adver-
tiser.
