Mr. E. G. Squire, who is better acquainted with Central America than any other man, in a Jetter to the London Times says:— ‘The only ground for affirming that General Walker has established slavery is this, tne Federal Assembly decreed ‘the abolition of slavery, and General Walker bas abro- gated the deorees of the Federal Assembly; therefore slavery is re-established! In my opinion this is a non sequitur, for slavery can only exist in virtue of positive Jaws; it is a suspension of natural rights, which can never be inferred. Furthermore, General Walker’s decree ex- Pressly recognizes all the rights which bave accrued or ‘Gre vested under the acts of the Federal Assembly. ‘The British Parliament is further prorogued until Tues- day, Dec. 16. The words ‘then to moet for despaton of business’’ were not inoladed ia the commission. ‘The King of Belgium opened in person the ordinary ses- sion ef the Chambers on the 11th instant.

While the conversation was carried on, a boat pushed off from the Russian steamer towards the island, but was prevented from landing, and the Russian steamer departed re infecico, after having givem over the provi- sions and clothing, Prince Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the Danish throne, who was dismissed from the Command-in-Chief ofthe troops in 1866, has been reinstated in his func- tons. A despatch from Berlin, of 12th fustant, says:— We have learnt that the resolution come to by the Germanic Diet has produced its effect in Switzerland. The temporizing policy first assumed has been thrown aside, and an agent tas been sent to Paris commissioned to make propositions deemed satisfactory. St. Petersburg advices report that Rear- Admiral Bouta- koff, in command at Nicolaieff, has been invested with all the powers in the Black Sea that formerly belonged to the Admiral at Sebastopol. ‘The Paris correspondent of the London Post writing on 9th inst., says:— Letters from St. Petersburg state that M. de Morny is entirely occupied thore tn preparing the basis of a treat; of commerce between and Russia, by whi French commerce will obtain important advantages for the entry of its productions into the Rusatan territory. It ie well known that French merchandise, particularly millinery and fancy articles, are in great favor in Russia, but are loaded with such heavy import duties that the price is doubled, and often tripled; the consequence of this .2 that large quantities are smuggled, te the preju- dice of the regular trader. The new Russian tari, by diminishing the customs’ duties, will do away in a groat measure with the smuggling trade, ana the result will at the same time be an improvement in the revenue for the Imperial treasury and fresh advantages for French commerce. A letter from Constantinople, of the 30th ult., alluding to the visit paid by Redachid Pacha to M. Thouvenel, says ft may be inferred that the Grand Vizier, on returning to yower, would not be hostile to France, as was appre- hended. On Tuesday, it saye— ‘The Grand Vizier, Aali Pacha, and the representatives of England Austria, Frasce, Prussia, Ruseia and Sardinia, proceeded to the residence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in order to discuss the articles of waich Im- rial {irman of convocation for the Divans ad hoc of tne Brineipatitien should be composed You will not be sur- prised to learn thet the discussion was of a stormy cha- racter. Aa a minute of the firman had been confidentially communicated to Lord Strattord and to M. de Prokesch, who are completely agreed on the point, they were en- abled to make whatever changes they picazed without any opposition. The minute had not been communicated to the French Embassy 4pnd, as it is now under disous- sion. M. Thouvenel red it proper to require that the firman of convocation sh not bea more formality, but that the Divan should bi posed in a manner to manifest the wishes of the country. According to advices received by the Augsburg Gazette, from Rome, it is positively known there that the Neapo- litan Minister of Justice is drawing up e new list of the persons that are to be amnestied. The Pope is employ- ing all bis personal influence on King Ferdinand II., and bopés to be able to persuade him to put an end to his misunderstanding with ,the Western Powers, “by a judi. cious compliance with their wishes.’’ His Holiness has made a strong appeal to the religious feclings of the King, ‘aud it is geuerally believed at Rome that there will soon be an bonorabie compromise betweea Naples and the Western Powers. It is stated that Sir Hamilton Seymour, the British Am- bateador at Vienna, is to accompany the Emperor of Aus- tria on bis visit to Italy, He isthe only member of the Diplomatic Courts who is to accompany his Majesty. The King of Denmark is suffering from a severe attack of erysipelas in the head, He lies at the Chateau of Frede- ricksburg. Letters from Madetra state that there are symptoms of improvement in the vines, and itis hoped that they may continue, so thatthe surplus of wine may be kop} tp. ‘The failure of the vine crops bas had the eflect of ing the pative industry of Madeira into other profitable channels. The sugar cane bas been planted largely dur- log the last few years, and the results have been highly satisfactory, Attention has also been paid to the cultiva- tion of corn and to the production of cochineal, both of which Drarches of industry are likely to become impor- tant, The poor classes are growing vogetables of sli sorts, especially the potato, and they now seem to be in & comfortable state. The cholera seems te have de- parted. Tuteligence from Bombay to the 17(h October, received by way of Trieste, states that the preparstions for the English expedition to the Persian Gulf were progressing. ‘The failure is announced of Messrs. John Dick & Sons, spinners of cotton thread, in Glasgow. The liabilities are eetimated at £60,000, and the assets are expected to rea- lige more than 10s, in the pound. ‘Snow fell in Paris for the first time this season at six o'clock morning of 11th mst. It however melted ra- pidly. ‘The ship James Baines, 100 days out from Australia, was over due at Liverpool, with £700,000 in gold on board, ‘The annus! volume of the British Board of Trade, con- taining detailed statements of the trade and navigation of the United Kingdom for the past year, has just been is sued. Under the head of imports and exports, the work exhibits an eulargement—ail other articles, besides the principal ones, being arrangod in « form to show their to- tal quantities and value, and the amounts taken {nto home consumption, as well as the duty received. From the figures, it appears that the total real vaiue of the foreign grain and tlocr, ofall kinds, consumed in the pited King- dom in 1856 was, £17,508,700, on which grosa revenue was collected of £395,140. ‘The Liverpool cotton market is again reported quiet throvgbout the week, the trade having confined their pur- chases to the supply of their immodiate wants, ‘The agricultural markets had all given way in price, ‘without any immodiate symptoms of recovery. Scotinnd and the east of England had recetved liberal imports from the north of Russia ; but that source of supply would s00n be cut off by ice in the Baltic. The show of whet at Liverpoo! was good, and a further considerabie supply being almést due from America, the millers from the terior were disinclined to increase their stocks beyond those actually necessary for the moment. These simut. taneous supplies on both sides of the kingdom ecoount for the apathy throughout all the country markets, A re- turn of seasopable weather had enabled farmors to pur. sue thelr out-door occupations, and their deliveries were consequently small, Wheat had decliaed Sd. por 70 Ibs. on the week, but with more doing at the reduction. Flour had met a slow sale, at Is, per barre! lower, in- dian corn bad attracted more attention, and sellers had realised an advance of ¢d. to 04. per quarter. Sugar bad continued tp speculative demand, and prices were 6d, to ls. dearer on the woek, the business being chiefly to arrive, Molasses 6d, dearer. The Manobester iuarket for manufactures continued quiet, with Mtle or no change in prices. ‘The Bank of Eogland has farther aivanced the rate of discount to 7 per cent, The bullion in the bank on the 6th amounted to £0,596,997, and the reserve of notes to £2,943,066.

That Mr. Buchanan will now havo a majority seems to bd “re- ceived as a fait accompli, but after the excitement that bas prevailed, the strong language that has been used, and the generai upheaving and convulsion of all . partios, meu have difficulty in believing that it ts possible for the country to drop down quietly into a state of acqiescence. That such would be utterly impossible in France, no one for an instant refuses to admit, and that it can be poasi- ble anywhere else seems incredible. It is in vain that those who know the character of the American mind as- sert, that a month after the declaration of the majority, the adherants of Fremont and Buchanan will be seen harmoniously battling who shall best promote some en- terprise of a strictly social character; it ig in vain that thoy assert that the dignity and majesty of the law is so deeply impressed on the Anglo-Saxon mind, as seen in the re- publican inatitutions of America, that having fought the good fight, which is the citizen’s duty and-birth- right, the victor and the vanquished wt! be contented to lie down in peace, side by side, and, henceforth, until the next Presidential contest, have no other rivalry than that of who shail best promote the honor and fame of an em- pire republic, which, like the tree of Odin, bids fair to overshadow the whole earth with its branches, No Frenchman will believe a bit of it; he believes, on the contrary, that you will go on struggling, backbiting, spitting, carping, abuainz, and nomenciating cach other for the next four years with just as much acrimony as, it must be sdmitied, you have done most abundantly for the last four months. I have no doubt myself that America will vindicate popular government in the eyes of despotic Europe, and show, for the honor of her great republic, for the dignity of the buman race in every clime and country, that a great people can exhibit its virtue, no lezs by submission to the majority, than by the earnestness aad vigor of its contention, When the constttutiona! battle requires them to take the fleld, I bave Liitle fear that she will play the game of who, dreading her enormously increasing power, hope they see in ber internal conteations, symptoms of that division and spilt, which may occasion “ber fail from the lofty eminence she has already altained, and render po- pular government a mockery for centuries to come. Al- ready we hear language to the effect that “trom two Americas, Europe would have nothing to fear.”’ But to revert to matters in this country. The Emperor has no sooner arrived at St. Cloud than more sus, be has Jost no opportunity of exhibiting himself to his lieges. He bas already been to the Opera, and to-night goes to an- other of the theatres; but bis reception in the streets has been something more than cold. At the (pera, care was taken that the bouse should be well supplied with cla- queurs, and thovgh on mora than one ocoasion a slight bies was beard, it was instantly suppressed by official en- thusiasm. His progress to and from the theatre was characterized by «silence which cou!d not but have been painful to his Me/esty and his {!lustrious consort by com- parison of formor cocasions. Indeed, it was not diificult wo catch sounds among the bloices, which treached broad- ly on the limits of treason, Thero is evidently intense diseatisfaction existing among the working classes. A privy council war beld at St. Cloud yesterday, but no- thing of moment has transpired, The belief still pre- valle that Covat Walewski is to be superseded as soon as hiv successor cam be determined upon, And the dinner which the Foreign Secretary gave yesterday to the hereditary Prince of Tuscany, at which was present the Avstriaa Ambassador, the Prussian Minister, the ‘Tuscan Charge d’Aflaires, the Tuscan Minister at Vienoa, Lord and Lady Holland, Count and Countess Telafami, the Baroness de Billing, Commandeur de Frescobaide, Baron a’Ostenfels, Baron Bernier, M.

Yesterday the reception of the Russian Embassy took place in great state at the Palace of the Tuileries. It is understood that at the Cabinet Council held on the pre- vious day at St. Cloud, a warm discussion occurred on the quostion of inserting at once an Imperial programme in the Moniteur on the state of affairs. Count Walewaki urged the propriety of dolug #0, but was opposed by the rest of the ministry, The Emperor at first incliped tothe view taken hy his Minister of Foreign Affairs, but after- ‘wards—contrary to his wont when once his opinion has been given—bis Majesty yielded to the arguments of otbers. It was, therefore, determined that for the pre- sent at least, the Imperial answer to the address ot Count Kisselefi, the Russian Atabassadcr, on his presentation, should be the only explanation officially given. ‘The manner of receiving the Russian Embassy was such as could not fail toimpross the public that heace- forth the connection between the two empires was to be considered a matter cf the gravest import, No leas than five State carriages issued from the Imperial manege to do honor tothe occasion. Four of these wero drawa each by six horses, capsrisoned ina manner such as is ob- eerved only on ceremonies of the highest dignity—such as the opening of the Chambers, an Imperial marriage, or the baptism of the Prince Imperial. The four carriages conveyed the suite of the Russian Embassy; the iisth car- riage, which was drawn by eight horses, decked with crimson and gold, andthe coachman and lacqusys of which, together with the running footmen, were in gor- gecus Siate liveries, contained the represeatative of tho Czar. The Palace of tho Tulleries was arrayed im all tts best to do him honor. Squadrons of cavalry from picked regiments .were drawn u ia the large court facing the Place de Carousel. Th: troops were all en grande tenue, and the imperial hali of entrance was spread with carpet of gold and crimson, and Asnked with such s galaxy of stalworth serving men, tn imperial green and scarlet plush, as people who know the secret of jumping froma humble lodging in Kin; street, St. James, to@ palace anda carte bianchs fora civil st, can alone venture to provide for their honor an! dignity. The same glittering array pertained throughout. The grand staircase, with {ts marble balustrades, was lined from the foot to the summit with gigantic soldiers of the Cent Garde, all in blue and silver tunics, dazzling belms, breast plates and back pieces of polished steel, with white leatber and enormous jack boots; and the se- veral long and spacious rooms through which the Ambas- sador and his suite passed towards the throne room ‘was flanked with the chosen oillcers ef tho imperial household. In the throne room Count de Kisseleff found acoup d’cil, which appeared to surprise even his prac- ised vision. The Emperor was in full dress, in the uniform of @ Fronch general; the Empress sat by his side, with the regalia on her brow, looking the very Ueau ideal of a sovereign consort. She was surrounded by the dames @honneur of her household in superb tolisttes, and on the "s EI stood the Princes, Marsbais, Minis- chosen officers of France—their persons covered with orders, and their whole (enue gorgeous with gold and plumage and jowelled stars. The Russian Ambassador then addressed his Majesty as follows :— Bine—The Emperor, my argust master, in me his Ambassador to your Imperial Majesty, has chargel me to de- vote all_my eare to the cultivation of ‘relations of friendshi which should nnite the two empires. I sbould esteem m yee! happy if, at the expiration of ‘my career, I shall have beon able in aby manner to contribute to the cementing between France union which aasures ‘o the general peace cne of ifs most desiralvie awe In the name of my august rovi T have the to to your Ma.
