ROBERT PEEL. This is honourable to their patriotic spirits, and sheds a lustre on the principles of men who will not swerve from their duty to crush their political opponent. It forms a noble contrast to that of the old Tory faction, who considrred place not too dear at any price, not even at the expense of honour and principle.  Madrid journals of the 27th tilt. have been received. According to some of those in the pay of the Government, the plot fur which twenty-six persons had been arrested on the previous day was of a most serious character, though, however, the prisoners are of the lowest class of society. It was said their plan was an imitation of the Cato-street conspiracy—to murder all the Ministers, and then compel the QUEEN to adopt their policy. A letter had been discovered which revealed the scheme, said to be of a most revolutionary character. The Eco del Commercio publishes the following Carlist placard, posted at Miranda:—" Attention! Royalists! The day of your triumph is at hand! Success to our companions in Catalonia! We shall soon imitate their boldness and their firmness. War to all liberal Jews without dis tinction. Live religion. Live Balmaseda." The Three per Cents. closed at 33 15.16 for cash, and ttt GO days ; the Five per Cents. at 251 for cash, and 25 11-16 at 60 days ; and the Debt without interest, at Bk, at 60 days, with 4 premium.

On Wednesday afternoon the Sardinian treaty was adopted in the Chamber of Deputies, by a majority of 206 to 32, the Opposition having preferred secession to defeat. In the Committees appointed to examine the estimates for the fortifications of Paris, the Ministers also were successful. Seven of the Committees were favourable to the measure, and only two against it. M. TRIERS absented himself on the occasion, but he would have acted more honourably, had he manfully supported a scheme which for certain purposes he advocated while in power, and which he and the SOVEREIGN, in fact, carried through the Chamber. The works now, gun*, bombs, shells, bastions, countersearps, ditches, and all, will be ultimately completed, according to the original plan, and something more. The intelligence from Switzerland is to the 30th ult., and, on the whole, more satisfactory. The Governor of Berne was actively engaged in restraining the volunteers enrolled for the invasion of Lucerne, while, according to accounts from Basle Campagno, preparations for the invasion were still going on. It was said that desertion from the Lucerne troops had been become frequent, and hopes were entertained that the Executive and the Jesuits—the cause of all the mischief—would find it more prudent to yield than risk a civil war. The following is the reply made by M. Moussorr, President of the Extraordinary Diet, held at Zurich, to the note of M. GUIZOT, addressed through the Swiss Charge d'Affaires at Paris :  "TO M. DE
