We have little to say about Swiss affairs An attempt
reconciliation has actually been made at Bernie 1t
have been effected by collective note from the repre-
enaves of the European powers and Of the minister of
the United States but it was not effected some Of the
penpotentares having urged that they had not sufficient
power 1t is also said that Austria seized the occasion
fling at the United States the Monroe docrnethat is
say, contest their interference in European AFFAIRS
their preension is TO oppose European influence the affairs
of the Ne,g World
be allowed to doubt it To-day there is report of
proposition transmitted to Berne by the French gov
eminent We also hea (but perhaps il is only the
thing under another orm) of propositions transmitted by
the four powers which signed the London protocoprop
ostons which have probably been accepted by Prussia
On the other hand have stated that the retensioas
Prussia looked upon Nth less favor in Ger
many and especially in those States which win suffer from
hosties If they allow passage to the Prussian soldiers
hope for pacific solution sit is true" says this Journal
hat it is the concatory sentiments Of Prussia that
will owe it, but to the German confederation, which
perhaps will refuse free passage the Prussian army
German trade which has already raised cry against the
damage that this unpopular will cause and to the
Grand Duchy Of Baden which understands that in allow
passage the German troops places itself in fragrant
hostility with the Swiss confederation.
ii is true Berne correspondent announces that
the federal council has effected loan of twelve millions
at Stuttgard admit that this fact while it bears
Helv etc confederation also shows very moderate

The federal govern will terminate its report the
federal assembly the affair of Neufchatel by the
nicaton of the propositions made to it excessively by the
cabinets of Paris Vienna and London and its replies II
will demand vote of appreciation of its conduct by in
vtng the assembly to express its opinion each Of
the incidents Of The affair

be made the starting point for another negotiation with
the cabinet Berlin they have failed for the moment but
have not been renounced The ministers Of England and
of the United States took the nitiave they invited their
colleagues Of Austria Bavaria France Russia Sardinia
Saxony Wurtemburg, and other States to take In
common decisive step with the federal government to
demand from ii the immediate release OF the prisoners Of
Neuehate under the condition that the governments
resented by those ministers should apply together the
King of Prussia to obtain the bass of future negotia
on the engagement to the sovereignty of the
principaty reserved in his favor by the general of the
Congress of Vienna 1t appears certain that the federal
disposed to accede to its part Of the
of the foreign ministers The project failed because
of the ministers did consider themselves sufficient
y authorized by their governments and particularly be-
cause the Austrian minister opposed it.
The minister did not think that his colleague of the
United States could take part In the proceedings which
only concerned and interested European States. He
thought that in general the American republic ought to be
excluded from any participation in the affairs of Europe
and the particularly that that country preends to
exclude Europe from participation in American affairs
The minister also FOUNDED his 0blectOn
other motivenamey, that the question Of Neuchate
cusvey concerned the great European powers and that
neither Sardinia Bavaria the other secondary States
had any right 20 interfere in it. On this occasion it the
form that gained the day the groundwork of the
question but hopes still entertained of removing the
causes Of the opposition of Austria II would perhaps
suffice il the negotiation to be proposed by the
representatives at Berne of France Austria Great Britain
and Russia and IL is not impossible that this may yet take
place
Berlin paper says that il is rumored that the Neufcha
tel question viii be arranged by conference independent
of that of Paris at which Switzerland viii be admitted

of Mr. Fay, the American minister
