A letter from Berne, of the 3d, in the Indepen- dance Belge, says, reliably, that the proposal is as follows:—England completely approves of the last proposition made by the Emperor Napoleon, namely, that the Swiss Federal Council is requested to re lease the Neuchatel prisoners solely out of regard for the friendly feelings of the Emperor. The Em- peror, in return, engages to endeavor to obtain from the King of Prussia the complete renunciation of Neuchatel. Should the King of Prussia refuse to Begotiate on this basis, the Emperor will oppose amy aggression on the part of Prussia against ‘Switserland, and will defend the independence of Neuchatel. Aletter from Berne, inrelation to M. Farrer's Tacsaage to the German States, mentions, in the way @f partioulars, that om the 26th of December, the eve of the opening of the Swiss Federal Assembly, the Federal Council received a telegraphic despatch from the Swiss Consul General at Leipsic, announc- ing that the Duke of Saxe Coburg wished earnestly to speak with a delegate of the Swiss federal au- therity om the subject of Neuchatel. M. Farrer was therefore sent. The particulars of the proposals made to him did not transpire, but it was understood that hie mission had failed. ‘The audience given by the King of Prussia to Mr. Fay, the United States Minister to Switzerland, who was accompanied by Count Mullinen, a Swiss, was we hours daration. The King ia reported to have eaid that for him the question of Neuchatel was a question of honor, but that if Switzerland gave way be might possibly renounce his claim to Neufhatel. Italy. MEBTING OF THE PIEDMUNTESE CHAMBERS—EXPLO- SION OF A WAR STEAMER—SICILIAN INSURGENTS SHOT. The Piedmontese Chambers were opened by the King on the 7th instant. The expenditure of the country is this year estimated within the receipts. A despatch from Naples, ot the 5th, states that the Neapolitaa ship-of-war Charles IIL, with troops on beard for Sicily, blew up, and was totally destroyed. Many lives were lost, and a great ymumber were wounded. Several of the wounded were rescued by ‘a British ship-of-war. The explosion was supposed to be accidental. Another report attributes the destruction of the war steamer to the explosion of her boilers. {On December 20th the leaders of the late Sici- lian iasarrection were shot at Palermo. Tarkey. STATE OP THE PRINCIPALITIES. The Hmglish squadron of observation near the Isle of Serpents have had to take refuge in the mouth of the Danube, in consequence of boisterous woather in the Black Sea. The second conference on the frman respecting the convecation of the Divans ad hoc in the Princi- palities was held, December 23, at the Ministry of Foreigs Affairs at Constantinople. The substance of their deliberations, so far as known, is, firstly, that as soon as the general tenor of the firman shall have been drawn up, the commissioners will take part in elaborating the details. Secondly, respect- ing the representation of the clergy, that the higher 98 weil as the lower clergy should be represented in the Divan; and that the representation of the Boyard class will be based upon property as well as tank. The last idea was proposed by France. Accerding to the correspondence of the London Times the social condition of the Principalities is Materially improved and improving. Porsia.

The soldiers of the landwehr take part in grafid ma- neeuvres, which last a fortnight every year, during which time they receive pay, and the horses of the cavalry are hired for them.
