SWITZERLAND.
A letter from Berne of the 27th ultimo, states that the Diet has resolved to make a demand on the French Republic for the restoration of that portion of the territory denominated the Valley of the Dappes, which the Treaty of Vienna had formerly assigned to the Helvetic Republic, but which the .French Government had united to the department of the Am, in consideration of its importance in a strategic point of view. The deputy of Vaud, in supporting the resolution, said, that it was to be hoped the Republic regime which 'had been inaugurated in a neighbouring 'state jwould repudiate, the faults of which two dy-
nasties have been guilty towards a state which it was bound to treat with courtesy. In acting thus, the French Government would not only repair an act of great injusjjce, but it would moreover accomplish an act of good policy.
