reserve, and deploring at the same time the spirit of
animosity and bitterness with which it is charged."
We regret to find by the Inst accounts from Otaheite,
which will be f,und is another part of the paper, that
a still more serious occurrence than the "PRITCHARD
affair" had taken place at Otaheite; but till we have
more details we consider it better to make no com-
ment on the unfortunate event. Our firm conviction
is, that while the French possess these islands in the
Pacific, the peace between England and France will
be constantly in danger.

PRIVY COUNCIL.—Sir Robert Peel, Lord Aber-
deen, the Right Hon. Henry Goulburn, and also some
of the Govprinnent Officers of State, left town by a
rail way train f.-om the Paddington station of the
Great Western Railway at half-past one yesterday
afternoon, on their way to Windsor Castle, to
attend the Privy Council appointed to be held by her
Majesty at half-past two o'clock.

HAMBURGII AND DUTCH MAIL.

TRIESTE, SEPT. 23.—We hear that the German Zoll-
verein is t ngaged in negotiations with the principal Ita-
lian States.

STETTIN, SEPT. 27.—1 t is reported that the of
for paying a certain cspital to put an end to the
Sound duty, as far as the Prussian provinces in the
Baltic are concerned, have been 'resumed ; and this time
on the proposal of Denmark. It is believed that the
projected canal from lielsinborg to Landserona, which
would be but a few leagues in length, has had some in-
tluence on this occasion, for according to the terms of
the treaty concluded in 1645, with the Netherlands at
Chrishanopel, only those ships and their cargoes are to
pay the Sound duty which pass the Sound between El-
sinore and the opposite, for Helsiuborg, which condition
would be avoided by the ships putting into the latter
port. At all events, this news, it it should be confirmed,
will excite new hopes in the Russian Baltic provinces,
which would derive greater advantages from the aboli-
tion of the Sound duty.
ST. PETERSBURGH, SEPT. 10.—In the account of the
victories of Schaniil Bey, in consequence of which even
the inhabitants of Tiflis were said to be alarmed, there
is not a word of truth. As usual, they were fabricated
by those haters of the Russians, who lost no opportunity
of displaying their talent at invention, by stating some-
thing against the character of those in the interest of the
Russians. According to the official accounts, the moun-
taineers have not only not gained any victories, but have
not even obtained the slightest, advantage, unless we
reckon as such that the Russians have attempted nothing
worth mentioning. In fact, General Neidhardt has net
fulfilled the expectations that are entertained of his
activity.
COLOGNE, Srrr. 20.—Travellers who have arrived
here from Venters, say that the popular excesses which
occurred there some days ago, in consequence of the
aversion to a projected establisnment of the Jesuits,
were much more serious than they were represented in
the Russian journals. At all events the Jesuits and
their partisans will most probably be obliged to give up
their plans respecting Verviers, for the prudent civil
authorities of that town will scarcely now give their
assent, now that the population have so decidedly ex-
pressed their disapprobation. We learn that the Jesuits
are not likely to be more successful in their plans for
forming establishments in other towns.
THE HAGUE, OCT. I.—ln order to prevent the frauds
which have already occurred in the sale of Ducth her-
rings in bonds, the Minister of Commerce at St. Pe-
tersburgh has thought fit to direct that the barrels shall
henceforth be sealed with his seals, one at the top
and one at the bottom, which stamps shall be united by
an iron wire, passing under the hoops, so that any at-
tempt at fraud must be immediately discovered by the
breaking or injuring of the seals.
THE HAGUE, OCT. 3. —The Dutch iron Railway Com-
pany has published the statement of the traffic in the
month of September, by which we Sind that the number
of passengers was 74,252, and the receipts for passengers
and goods was 67,990 11..rins. The total up to the end
of September was 515,956 passengers, and the receipts
468,178 florins.
AMSTERDAM, OCT 4.—According to the latest notice
of his Excellency the Minister of Finance, the state of
the conversion on the Ist Oct. was as follows :
The sums of the debt at 5 and 4/ per cent. interest to
be converted was, according to the Handelsblad,
400,251,200.

BERLIN, SEPT. 29.—There is no truth in the re-
port of the King's visit to the Rhine ; his Majesty
will not again leave us at present.
COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 20.—The Copenhagen Post
says it is now certain that the King of Prussia will
pay us a visit on the 10th of October, at which time
our King will return from Jutland. It is natural that
this visit is supposed to be connected with regulations
for the Sound Duty more advantageous to Prussia.
STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 27.—1 t was not till yesterday
the ceremony of the coronation was solemnly pro-
claimed by four heralds as fixed for to-morrow. A
notice was issued on the 25th that the general mourn-
ing was to be suspended ; but it is to be resumed,
after the coronation, and worn for as long a time as be-
fore the ceremony. The custom of throwing money
among the people, usual at coronations, is not to take
place this time. his Majesty has announced this to
the city magistrates. The I has ordered great
entertainments fur the journeymen workmen next
week.
BERLIN, OCT. 1.--Nothing is determined respect-
ing a visit of our King to Denmark. At our Court
there has never been any mention of a journey of the
King to Copenhagen, but only to a meeting in some
Danish province near to it, where the King would
certainly be the guest of his Danish Majesty.
BERLIN, SEPT. 30.—1 t is reported that it is his
Majesty's intention, after Tschech has been con-
demned in the second instance, and after negotiations
to this effect has been opened with the English Go-
vernment, to banish him to an island out of Europe.
This would he a new proof of the magnanimity of our
King.—Hamburgh Paper, 0 t 4.
