Marshal SOIILT has obtained a supplementary vote ofcredit from the

French Chambers, for about a million and half sterling, to defray the charges of the increase in the army, which the disturbed state of' the country renders necessary. This vote was not carried without considerable opposition, the numbers being 196 to 142. It is said that the French Government have intimated to the Ministers of the Holy Alliance, that no acts of aggression on Switzerland will be permitted. Prince METTERNICH, it seems, has been holding threatening language to the Swiss Diet; and the proceedings in Neufchatel have brought the Federal Govern- ment into collision with Prussia. Notwithstanding the assurances of protection from France, the expulsion of the Poles and other refugees has been resolved upon.
