RUSSIA AND THE TREATY OF PARIS.
The Dedats contains a letter from Berlin of the 13th, which says :—‘* It was asserted yesterday in well-informed circles that a courier from the Russian Government has just passed through Berlin, carrying to M. Kisseleff at Paris a note formally demanding of the French cabinet the convocation of a congress at Paris to definitely settle the difficulties which have arisen in the interpretation of the Treaty of the 30th March.”
Le Nord enlarges upon the sacrifices incurred by Russia in consenting to the closing of the Black Sea agunist her vessels of war, and seeks to show that she was only induced to assent by the understanding that Europe would preserve the sea perfectly neutral. “ If Europe,” says Le Nord, “ renounces the duty of causing the neutrality of the Black Sea to be respected, it ought—to be consistent—to relieve Russia of the engagement which she contracted to give up her naval power in those waters.” Le Nord looks confidently to Vrance for the enforcement of the Russian interpretation of the treaty.
The Paris Patrie doubts the fact which has been announced that Russia is prepared to concede the point relative to the Isle of Serpents. It argues that Russia was wrong as to that point, but not so wrong about Bolgrad. It, however, recommends that Power to give way in order to ayoid the difficulties that would result from a postponement of the Treaty of Paris.
The Independence Belge states, in a letter from Paris, that Russia demands the neutralisation of the Isle of Serpents, and the eslablishment there of a commission composed of representatives of the various powers; in return she will abandon her pretensions to Bolgrad.
A letter from Constantinople to the Paris Presse says :— “The English cruisers do not get out of sight of the Isle of Serpents. Two frigates and a small steamer are moored betore the island, and a corvette is ccnstantly passing to and fro between the Island and Odessa. These measures are evi- dently taken in order to prevent the Russians from setting foot on the island. Meanwhile, the six Russians, one of Whom iv am-e@icer.and another a doctor, who find themselves ‘transported’ ypon this rock, lead a very dull life. They have only some bad biscuits and bacon. Fortunately, the Turkish soldiers at the lighthouse keep up friendly relations with them, and generously give them of their meagre pittance. It was a Turkish officer who first gave them drinking water, The English have taken the precaution to deposit a flag at the lighthouse, which is to he hoisted if the Russians show themselves near the island.”
Tue Neaprorrran Dirritcoury.—We hear that the Nea- politan difficulty is in a fair way of arrangements. The close alliance of the English and Austrian Governments has enabled
confidently that England is ready to forgive and forget, if he makes only the smallest formal concession. The Neapolitan Ambassadors at London and Paris still remain in those capitols.

Mecuantcs’ Ixstrrvre.—As customary, of late years, at the commencement of each Session, the members of the Mechanics’ Institute ushered in that of 1856—7 by a public Soiree on Tuesday last, at the Temperance Hall. At 64 o'clock the company, numbering about 200, sat down to Tea. For some reason, the Committee decided not to advertise this affair, and the natural result was, that many who would have gone knew nothing of it. However, a very respectable company attended, among whom we noticed His Excellency the Lieut. Governor, with Messrs. Malachiand D. Gore Daly, His Worship the Mayor, the lady and family of the Hon.
