will not recognu-.e the new state ol

Europe, as if something very important was going on. Austria, Prussia, and a number of German princes, are busy with negociating large loans. The "legitimates" are certainly somewhat alarmed.

The Dutch had made two very desperate attempts, but without success, to retake a piaco of considerable importance on the inland of Sumatra, which had fallen into the hands of the natives, bv whom tho European residents had been most inhumanly massacred. In the last attack some ships of war succeeded in getting within fire of the fort : the natives poured in a heavy discharge of musketry and great guns, and set fire to nc-aHv one hundred bamboo houses, which, floating down the current, carried destruction amopg the vessels. Strong svmntom of

dissatisfaction were manifested in several other of the Dutch settlements in India. 1 he treatment of the natives by the Dutch is s-iid to have been verv barbarous ; and it is thought that it is in. consequence of such ill treatment that the t!i-aliection is so manifest, and that a large force is requisite to keep the ua tives in subjection. sofa scon A.

"The enquiry going on in the parlia

ment house, with respect to the queen, has now assumed a most interesting character.

Tlie strongest feelings and passions are excited in favor of the queen. A

reat majority are undoubtedly for her,

believing in her innocence. If the measure is pursued against her, it will lead to a bloody termination there is no manner of doubt ministers begin to feel for their heads. A civil war will be the inevitable consequence of a conviction. . The people believe her innocence, and thev believe also, that if she is convicted, it will be

by the evidence of suborned and perju

red witnesses; therefore they will not heed any decision made by an ex party tiibunal on the cvideucc of perjury alone. There will be a fight, and a bloody one, before it is over, depend upon it."
