DECREE TO DISARM THE NATIONAL GUARD
OF BERLIN.-MEETLNG OF THE LONSTI-
r TUENT ASSEMBLY.

- -
—PRUSSIA.—The Berlin Semis Anseiger, which we
have received with the other journals of the 12th inst.,
from that capital, contains a proclamation, signed by
the king. it which it is said that since the proroga-
dad of the Constituent Assembly to Brandenburg,
part of that Assembly has thought fit to oppose that
step, and has resumed its deliberations is
Berlin. The civic guard has not only refused to
ere naiad this illegal state of things, but has
Ihallos those very members of the Assembly under its
seleetioni Such a state of things cannot, says the
peodautaton, be allowed to continue; end, corn:- I
gently, it is thereby declared that the civic guard of
Berlin is dissolved.
A royal decree removes the interior minister of
Rinker, end names in his stead Herr Itia-
hisantirne the state of affairs in Berlin is becoming
taper and more serious. On the 11th the Miserably
met at the Schutzen-house, and resumed adjourned
eittings there. After receiving an address of the stu-
dents sod others from the provinces, the president was
and to adjourn the Assembly until Monday, when
two or three motions, declared to be urgent, were
Emile and forthwith discussed and carried. The first
was to the effect that a commission of sixteen should
be appoireed to draw no a full explanation of all that
occurred, in the form of a report, and that this reput
shod I be published for the information of the whole
station; the second was the nomination of
a commission of eight, to consider and report upon
the expediency of impeaching the mitisters
as traitors to the country ; and, in the event of
the crown persisting in its resolution, of also
smoldering the expediency of refusing supplies.
Beth these motions were passed unanimouely. In
ems quence also of the fact b2ing made known that
the decree above mentioned, dissolving the Burgher
Guard, was about to appear in the official paper of the
next day (published on the night of the 11th), a
motion was made and carried declaring that those
who advised these measures were traitors to the
country; that the Burgher Guard should be forbidden,
ea min of being themselves declared traitors, to sur-
rme&r their arms, and they should be ordered and
directed to defend themselves to the last drop against
all attempts to disarm them—a defence to be sanc-
tioned by a vote and decree of the Assembly. M.
Orabow, ex-president, proceeded, late on the evening
of the 11th, to Potsdam, to throw himself at the king's
feet, but with little hope of sums. The city was
quist—ominou.ly so.
AUSTRIA.—The intelligence from Vienna is no
later than that previously received ; but a letter from
011 mute. of the Bth inst., informs us that the Austrian
General Simonich, who had entered into Hungary
from Gallicia, had been beaten by the Magyars, and
retired into the Marchfeld near Coding, a village not
fee from Vienna. Simonich lost two cannon and
several men. The Hungarian force halted on the
frontier, but its commander declared that, in the event
lof an entry b-ing mode into the Hungarian territory,
he would enter Moravia. The Bam Jellachich, with
his force, has joined Stmonich at Goding. It is said
that he was about to attack Presburg.
According to the Breslau Gazelle, Pulsky has bees
taken prisoner, as he was about to pass the frontier
into Hungary.
The news is confirmed that the Austrian General
Philippovich Du been shot at Pesth.
