Affairs in Switzerland are still in a troubled state. The

German Swiss of the Upper Valais have declared their resolution to resist the constituted authorities. A scuffle ensued between the police and the populace, and a policeman was killed. In consequence of the disorders at Zurich, it has been proposed in the Great Coun- cil of Lucerne, to prevent the Diet from meeting in that city this year. The Cantons of Berne, Soleure, St. Gall, Argau, Thurgau, Basle- Campagne, and Lucerne, have addressed a joint note to the Depu- ties of the other Cantons assembled in the Diet, against the present Government of Zurich.
