ROMAN STATES.—The following letters, which
appear in the Ocutdationnel, is much in the tone of

We ars perhaps on the eve of a derisive tonic. The letter
of the pendent of the republic breathes the elevated send-
meets and rename hopes which become the first marrietrate
of the republic, but here the opinion is that its pubbcatien
was not opportune. The retirement of the municipality and
the commissiouen was first apprehended. The resigastian
of the latter might not have bran too mach deplored, as by
their inespacity, and no; very favourable spirit Inwards us,
they had caused 10 much embarrassment. But it was the
general menden that it would be the signal of a rupture
with the Pops. The municipality, continuing as it doss,
the sacra important men of the moderate party, who ac-
tion oa the most enlightened pert of the population is great,
would have been the cause of consid, ruble difficulty, don
it was by its aid the. we were able to re-establishorder. We
should hays been obliged to seek a rapport in the revile-
Moray party, which we have curatives °tweezed. Thera
motives had appeared sufficient to adjourn the publican,. of
tee letter, which besides had no official character. Copies'
had been ciecuLsted, and produced great emotion. At the
court of Partici it caused considerable uneasiness. Ex*.
n tions bad even been demanded from your diplomacy be
the reptesentatives of the paws's. Despatches were received
yesterday, assoaneion that the government desires the pub-
lication of the letter. According to the with so expreseed, the
letter will be published to-day. It will appear is the oh It-. -

disseminated and read. It may be affirmed in advance in at

tations have been spoken of for this evening or to-m; ?row.
I cannot thick that anything grave can mar. Nevertheless,

what he ought to do to pr-vent an internal crisis from 'more

presentations decided the commissioners and the munici-
pality to remain in function until the? received instructions

the letter of the president of UP mobile. and it emu have
been aware of the possibility of its being published. It is
orb'. that, if the re:imagist of the coextension of cra-
ss to follow, precise and clear instructions would have
been previously given. Thu presence of M. de Camille. and
of M. de Reynevid appeared necessary in the ciecuositances
in which we are placed. M. de Coreellee was at Castellt-
mars for the be n4t of his health, and the other at Partici.
They are about to return immediately to Rome, M. de Hal-

ing. It is said that General Raetolan his again offered his
resignation, the government not having reap nded a his de-
sire to be replaced. To be just, it must be acknowledged
that our discoatent is fully warranted, and the iegratithde of
W couneellore who ;are about the Pope is great. We la-
vished our money and blood to restore the pontifical throne,
werterned by a shameful revolution. Surely, than, we hays
a right to be heard, and to have our counsels followed.
These counsels were dictated by a sincere respect for the
rights of the Holy See, and a profound veneration for the
Holy Father. it is statert that the system of govorament
which the Pape has decided on has just been submitted to
the sacred college. That system contains good things, but
it is not in &mordants with the demands of our government.
An amnesty, it is mid, is to be awarded, the triumvirs, mi-
nisters of the republic, and a part of the members of the Na-
tional Availably being excepted ; elective municipalities are
to be establielmid, end a c=aned of state is to be organised,
but it is to be only oonsultetive. It is said that the system
is to be made public in a few days, either by a solemn decla-
ration or I.y an edict.

The letter of the president was not published so
soon as this correspondent hoped, for we find from a
letter in the Florence Statute, dated Rome, the 15th
instant, that on that day General &stolen, in cense-
Tune@ of orders received from Paris, made great

gained &respite ; but Rostolan,tot seeing the letterpub-
lished on the 16th. returned to the charge and was
answered that the letter should be published that very
day. Still their eminences nourish some hope of
getting out of the dilemma, and of De Comities con-
seating to take the non-execution of the order upon
his own responsibility. The conflict between the
French and Pontifical authorities continues. At
Frascati, Governor Buti, who, by order of Mon-
signor Sevelli, exercised a severe surveillanee over the
persons who had retired this to enjoy the country
season, has been sent away by the French. Last
night nine priests escaped from the primes of the holy
office • it is believed that they were assisted in their
The °ammeters Romano, of the 14th, announces
that the body of earabiniers which from the 16th of
November last had been ander the control of the
minister of the interior, has now passed under that of
the minister of war. All officers of the Roman army
who bad not declared their adhesion to the French
army on the 3rd of July, are eonsidered as being dis-
missed, though they were in the service before the
16th of November. M. Duvergier d'Hauranne
arrived at Rome on the 12th, es also M. Louis Mose
from &zags, with important despatches for his
holiness.
The Giornale di Bonus, of the 14th, publishes the
official returns of the wounded who entered the hos-
pitals from the Ist of May to the 30th of June. The
numbers are as follow : Romans, 136 ; subjects of the
Roman provincee, 6431 Italians from different states,
322; foreigners, 41; country unknown, 258; total,
1,298.
The Basionale of Florence states, from Rome, 14th
inst., that a conflict had taken place between French
and Spanish sentinels at Velmontone, but that on both
aid. s strict silence was observed on the subject.
VENICE.—Gen. Gorzlowilei has published a notice
at Venice, dated the 16th, stating that As evil-minded
persons take a pleasure in writing treesonable sen-
tences upon the wally, each acts shall be punished
according to martial law, end that hasseholders mew-

GERMAN Y.
PRUSBIA.—Gar =respondent writes:
BERLIN, Barr. 22.
One would imagine, from the tone in which Eng-
land is mentioned by tte ministerial men and papers
at Berlin. that the power which 34 years back gave
peace to Europe has no more right to pat in a word
to-day. about a new settlement of the Continent than
America or China. I cannot illustrate more forcibly
the Buseian policy of the Berlin cabinet then by
giving yea an extract from the Cimetantioniwile Car-
respondons, a lithographie sheet, underatcod to be a
direct emanation or the ministry, and got op in Meet-
teuffers ova Mos. The words in Babes are so

same ground which Masco d Coming to ditty the priasiplo
intervention of the holy anima. Under this impost, the re-
luctance of England to have the akin of central Bumps
settled without her wagered= may betermed " ogoistical."
Such is the law which the intimate organ of
the hopeful Prasian government holds towards Eng-
land and Lord Palmerston. The pretension of England
to say a word on European politics is treated as un-
ressouble and inadmissible. And what is, or could
be, the moaning of England's interference? Simply to
back what the Prussian government has been tram-
peting to the world fur 18 months, the right,
namely, of Ger.nany to representative institutions.
no mediation, intervention, or oongreesive part of
England could mean only this and nothing else. It
could only protest against the establishment cf a Ger-
man duamvirste under the hero of Waegbausel and
Rsetadt and the Archduke Albert, with annihilation
of all German hopes. The sincerity of the Prussian
government in carrying out the scheme of the Ger-
man Bendel-emit is wellshown by receiving with sour
repugnance, or rather rejecting with absurd disdain,
the co-operation of England towards the establish-
ment of the only feature in that scheme that has any
worth or meaning whatsoever, namely, a political
organ through which the voice of the German people
may be heard.
This has been guaranteed by the treaties to which
England was a party at Vienna. The 13th article (il
I mistake not) of the Bundes-akte. or Treaty of Con-
federation, promises that every German state shall
have a constitutional form of government, which, if
it miens anything at all, means reprefentative inwitu-
tient, and not sham parliament., but real ones.
Another of the articles of that treaty guarantees the
freedom of the press and other reforms. These re-
forms naturally have never been complied with. For
while the Bundes-ataat was merely a whist party at
the rooms of the Austrian representative in Frank-
fort, it was not to be expected that any great national
malts could flow from such a source.
The Lloyd contains a letter from Frankfort, eon-
&ming the intelligence which I sent two days ago,
that the propositions of Austria in the German ques-
tion have been fully admitted by the Prussian go-
vernment. This correspondence concludes with say-
ing that the astral power u proposed by Austria
will start into lib in a few days, and that the Drei-
klinigeband will thereby cease. The ministerial or-
gans of Berlin, whose consistency, as far as attempt-
ing to deceive the public is concerned, approaches
the toughest effrontery of dissimulation, deny all sus-h
assertions from all quarter', and still continue, after
Baron Schleinitz said more than a week ego in the
Upper Chamber that the interests of the Prussian and
Austrian negotiation. on the German question was a
purely historic one, to affirm that the government
will still insist on carrying out their scheme.
The Chambers did not sit yesterday. To-day both
continued the revision of the cestitution. In the
lest sitting of the First Chamber Manteuffel gave an
excellent measure of his capacity to conduct the in-
terior affairs of Prussia, by making a violent attack
upon one of the most useful institutions of this coun-
try, which has existed for several years. I mean the
Working Men's Club (Hendwerkers-Verein), an in-
stitution strongly resembling in is organisation and
objects the Manchester Atheneum. The minister of
the interior also abused Diesterweg, the famous edu-
cationist, a man famous throughout Germany, of the
purest life and morale and most philanthropic aims,
because he promoted the objects of the Handwerkers-
Verein. This sally of Manteaffer• is much talked
about.
