A meeting of the Council of Ministers was held in

Paris on Wednesday, at which the question of Switzerland was taken into consideration. We are assured that a strong opinion was expressed by M. Guizot, and several of his colleagues, in favour of a joint intervention, along with Austria, ha Switzerland, if the contending parties in that country should come to blows, as will very probably be the can. It was, however, determined that no definite resolution should be taken upon the subject until such time as the Diet, which met on the 18th, should have come to some final deci- sion; but, in the mean time, it is understood that additional troops are ta be advanced to the Swiss frontier.—Morning Chronicle.
