p R i sM.i. — V telegraphic despatch re
ceived Iroill i' .lin. \ia < ologne, announces
that tlie Austrian cabinet had made a for
mal protest against the convocation of a
German parliament :tt Erfurt, and that in
die despatch containing the protest the '
Vusirian goveminent alluded to the proba
bility o! armed interference by Austria in .
jii,. liVirs of Germany. The same tele- ;
ornphic account stated that the Prussian
government had answered the Austrian
despatch by a declaration that Prussia i
would mainfaiu lier position. These an- j
counts have been substantially confirmed. !
A letter from Berlin, to the Morning
t liroiiicle, says : " At the end of October,
Prince Schwartzeiihurg, in a despatch to
the Prussian government, pointed out the
dangers that were likely to arise from tin
convocation of this Parliament, insisting
on the revolutionary tendencies to which
i would give birth, and on the reaction that
would be fell, not only in the Austrian
States, but in Prussia likewise."
On the 30th October, Prussia replied
that site had "duly weighed all those con
siderations, hutthat more elevated and pres
sing motives urged her to persevere in the
plan. As regards real dangers, she would
know how to meet them. Austria has now
gone a step "farther, and has formally pro- ,
tested against the convocation of the Par
liament. If I am well informed, and I
have reason to believe that I am, the last
despatch addressed by Prince Schwartzen- I
burg to the Prussian government, insinu- j
atcs that even should the case require it, j
Austria will not hesitate to have recourse \
to an armed intervention. Behold us once j
more on the eve of a serious conflict.
A Cabinet Council was held the day be
fore yesterday. The council first adopted
the Election" Law of the Parliament. —
Each State will introduce such inodifica- ■
tious as its organization may require. The j
Cabinet Council was then occupied with
the reply to the Austrian note. The min
istry adopted a most important resolution. .
A despatch, in reply to that of Prince j
Schwartzenburg, has already been sent to ;
Count BonsdortL the Prussian Envoy at |
Vienna. Prussia, in this document, main
tains. with energy, her right to carry out
the limited federation —a right formerly
guaranteed. To the Austrian's despatch
of armed interference, Prussia replies that
44 she awaits it."
Accounts from Berlin of the 24th ult.,
state that after a debate ol several days, the
upper chamber had declined to return to
the old constitution. They divided no less
than sixteen times, eight of which were by ;
name.
The Cologne Gazette announces, in a
telegraphic message trout Berlin, that the
King has signed the law for the election of
representatives to the German parliament,
to be assembled at Erfurt.
Pram e.— Parliamentary Disputes.—
The personal quarrels of the members ot
the legislative assembly terminated in more
than half a dozen duels, and have occupied
the chief attention of the Parisians during
the week. M. Pierce Bonaparte has fig
ured iu as manv as three or four ot these
encounters. An me of the contests have
ended fatally, but they have increased to
such a degree that the government threat
ens to stop them by very stringent laws.
Attempt to Abrogate 1 niversal
Suffrage. —The modus operandi of mod
ifying the constitution is still the increas
ing subject ot discussion. It is now. sug- ,
gested to change the legislative assembly
into a constituent body, by the addition of
]SO members, and this new body he in
vested with the power of electing the
President ; of extending the* term ol his j
office to such a period as may m oid the
necessity of a frequent appeal to universal
nujfrage.

11. —( onsiderahle alarm has prevailed du- ,
ring the week, in consequc nee of the in
rr ising unsatisfactory state of the relations
between Austria and Prussia.
Ti kkev. —From Constantinople the
news onlv confirms the previous pacific!
course of events. It stated
that the British fleet has received orders j
to withdraw from the Dardanelles, and
" at it is indeed by this time at Alalia.
.Nothing further has transpired respect- j
ing the whereabouts of the Polish and j
Hungarian fugitives. I
The Russian Ambassador, M. I itofi, .
iu;- once more been, admitted i<> an inter- ,
view with the (fraud Vizier, and dipjo- j
matie relations may be presumed to be ;
renewed between Russia and the Porte.
The Russian minister was excessively
nnnoved bv the present#* of the British ;
fleet in the Dardanelles, which he declared
a violation of the treaty, and has, it is -aid, j
refused to enter into negotiation until the ;
English shall have quitted the Straits.— j
The V ieima correspondent of the IJinly
Sea's, writing on the 21st ult., says, 1 Let
ters of tin- HHh from Constantinople men
tion fresh subjects of dispute between Rus
sia and ! urkev, in consequence of the en
ergy with which the united diplomacy of
England and Prance has followed up its
victory on the refugee question. It is said
that the Porte is aI -o determined, at the
• xpiration of the stipulated term, to with*
dravv those concessions in favor of Russian
commerce, over Other nations, w lueh at
present exist.

Obituary !\ticc.
Departed this life in October Inst, at his
father's,in Brown township, Kishacoqui.'las Val
ley, after a short illness. JOHN, son of George
Ellis—a worthy young man, only --on of fond
parents, who were flattered by tbe fine promise
of their cherished son, who bad just arrived at
manhood. He was a blameless youth—amiable
and beloved—intelligent, and for bis opportuni
ties, riot ill informed—a beautiful penman-—a
teacher of a school—and besides the day school
of which he had tbe care, he was a teacher in
the Sabbath School established in the name place.
His morals were exemplary—mind sound and i
disposition very bland—manners courteous and
obliging—r.cspectfhl to his pastor, parents and
acquaintances—aconscientuous youth—constant
in attendance on Divine Worship, when able to
leave home—often infirm in years past, and dis
abled from severe bodily exertion, yet, unwilling
to be idle, though in need of crutches to support
his steps, he undertook a school some mile-, dis
tant from home.'and by bis assiduity, was ena
bled to sustain it for several months, and thus
support himself ami aid his parent*
There were several very commendable points
in his character and example worth remember
ing by other young men, and in common with all
who knew him well, we share in the regret oc
casioned by his death. This a wise arid right
eous God will overrule, however, and may He
graciously comfort the bereaved, who long will
bewail their son, though they mourn not without
the hope that it is his gain. J.

I FRESH
WL have just largly increased our already
extensive stock of WINTER GOODS, and
as the Philadelphia houses are reducing their
stocks previous to the clcse of the year, we
have been enabled to make purchases very low,
and are now prepared to offer our friends
OO 1> 15 AESiiA 2 As .
Our stock of English and French Bit OA D
CLOTHS, plain and fancy CASSIMERES,
SATINETS, JEANS, &c., is very large and
desirable, and will be sold as low a at any other
; establishment, in town. V e offer Cashmeres,
French Merinoes, Lustres, Mous. de
Laincs, Prints, long and square
SHAWLS, of eveiy description;
French Collars, (Loves, Hosiery, Ric., at great
ly reduced prices,

Stockings at G. ! { cents per pair,
j Mouseline de Laines at cts. per yard.
Handsome Cashmeres at 2-") cts. per yard, &c
\Vo now sell boy's boots at (§I.OO per pair,
such as some great concerns are selling at $1.25.
Men's heavy boots at $1.50, and Ladies' and
: Child re its'shoes in proportion. In fact every
thing in our line is now lull and extensive, and
i although not so good at pulling as some of our
neighbors, we will say to those friends that
i patronize us that they shall not lose thereby.
We think that, we buy our goods as well as any
other concern and will sell them as low (quali
ty considered,) and although we do not boast of
j selling as many as half the town, we think we
i sell more than the great concern that dees.
