 Inc General impression Was that the tone of this note would make the Belg- all Congress more strenuous in it's exer- tions to elect the Duke of Leutchten- berg, as it was locked upon as an i'm proper interference on the part of the French Government.
 In the sitting on the 20th of January. the committee appointed for that pGf- pose made report protesting against the Protocol Of the 20th January, the discussion of which was postponed, and the subject of choosing sovereignwas again debated for three hours and half without coming to any decision. ltis mentioned, says the Paris correspondent of the Journal du Hayre, as a singular circumstance that in this sitting M. ae Seyan, known for the loyalty of his re- publican principles, warmly supported the French Prince. He observed that thesDuke of Leuchtenberg would throw them into the arms of the Holy Ali. ance; he would drag US, said he, into q tFrance-ag gainstt that France without whom, we who are now sitting quietly here discussing this subject, would be either executed or fugitives. War for war, l would prefer war uifh Trance to n war agua1,st France. 1t the same sitting another member insln- uated that the Nemours party conceal ed the after thought of a reunion with france, which was warmly contradieted by several members.

 Private letters of the 18th January, from Rome, say;
 "Ihe coaelave has now iasted month without coming to conclusion. Car dinal Giustinian, Bishop of lmola, who seemed to obtain the greatest number of votes some days ago, has been exclu- ded by Spain, and it is asserted that Cardinal Macchi, late Nuncia at Paris, has been excluded by France. A re- port vas spread the day before yester- day that Cardinal Capelleri had been elected, which created great satisfaction, because he is generally respected. This rumor, however, was soon scontradict- ed"
 In the French Chamber of Deputies, onstie 3ist January, the municipal law was under discussion.
 Apetitionwas presented the French Chamber of Deputies from the inhabit- ants of Vervier, :n favor of the reunion of Belgium to France. The plan is said to be very popular in that part of the country.
