STOCKHOLM, Jim? 9.
We hear from Elsinore that a Russian fleet is daily expected
from Cronstadt, which is bound to the Mediterranean.

FROM THE /JIICKAR, JULY 10.
We understand that the Estates of the Principality of East
Friesland intend to bring before the Diet at Frankfort, several
points relative to the Constitution and the rights of the country.
Having stated the grounds upon which the rights they claim are
founded, a committee of the States requested a celebrated states-
man to give them his opinion upon the following questions :-Ist.
Whether it can be doubted that the States of East Friesland
were unoccupied at the time that the Principality was ceded by the
King of Prussia to the King of Hanover ? 2dly. If the States
were so occupied, and exercising their powers, is the Diet the
competent authority to call upon the Sovereign to give to the States
the rights belonging to them? The person to whom these ques-
tions were referred, has given a legal opinion, deciding both in fa-
vour of the States.He thinks that Hanover cannot have more rights
than was transferred to it by Prussia; and that the Diet is the
competent authority, unless both parties should prefer to submit to
the arbitration of the Supreme Court of Appeal at Celle, which by
its decisions has gained the confidence not only of Hanover, but
all Germany.

CHRISTIANIA, Jut: 10.
According to the accounts received from all parts of Sweden, an
almost total failure of the crop is to be found there. This is sup-
posed to be the cause of the decline of the Swedish course of Ex-
change.—Xaasbu►gk Papers, July 17.

that General Diebitsch has whhed to know the moral effect pro-
duced in that place by his victory, and to obtain some information
concerning the forces the Vizier bad collected there- The pretest
for making these observation, would naturally be found in the
proposition with which M. Fonton was charged : the necessity
of investigation was most probably the motive for his mission.—
From this moment &swat ought to assume a decided character. The
Russian reserves have put themselves in motion to rejoin their active
columns. Nothing can stop the passage of the Balkan, if it has
been decided on at St. Petersburgh. Thus the illusions founded on
the reforms introduced into the military system of the Turks have
disappeared. At length people must cease to be delighted with their
resistance, which has been called unequalled; it was what ft ought
1 to be, according to the genius of the people, as long as they kept
behind their intrenchmeuts. Their appearance in the open field
showed their weakness as tacticians, which is, independent of their
bravery as individuals, a quality which nobody denies them, but
which, in fact, is their only appanage.
•Switzeriand no longer finds it necessary to seek employment for
its people out of its dominions. Manufacture, have made expert
progress in the nineteen cantons, and they could employ more hands
than they possess. The soldiers who are obtained with so much
trouble to recruit the regiments in France, might, without quitting
their country, be employed more advantageously for themselves
and for her. The interest of both countries requires that the capi-
tulations should be rescinded.

From the Courrier Francais.
PARIS, JULY 21.
Some years ago the King of the Netherlands established a col-
lege at Louvain. To elevate public instruction to a level with the
public wants, upon a truly loyal plan ; to desire that the priest, the
instructor of the people, should be himself an enlightened man, was
a thought proper to religion ; but it is difficult to do good. The
clergy, at the name of this College, uttered their famous non pos-
MMUS. Rome supported the clergy for fifteen years, the King has
in vain endeavoured to negoclate a concordat with the Pope, and
we now learn that the Sovereign has given way, and the clergy
are liberated from the obligation imposed on them by the Govern-
ment, to go to this College before taking Holy Orders, and before
seething any places at its disposal.
