The Valley of La, near Avers, in the Grisons, not

far from the fron- tier of Valteline, which is in dispute between Austria and Switzerland. has become the scene of fresh difficulties created by Austria, who has carried away a quantity of wood cut on that territory.

A letter from Stuttgard, in the Popular German Journal, announces a a new Papal encroachment. "The preliminary negotiations which have been going on between Cardinal de Reisach and the Wurtemberg dele- gate on the subject of the concordat to be concluded between Wurtem- berg and the Holy See have terminated satisfactorily. The same may be said of the deliberations of the Congregation of Cardinals which succeeded them. There is nothing more wanting at present to complete the esta- blishment of the concordat but the ratification by the Pope and the Bing of Wurtemberg."
