PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, MAY 25.

Especial importance is attached in political
circles to the change of the Paris Congress into a
Conference. Nevertheless in political and military
quarters war is still considered as certainly ap-
proaching. Prussia, however, will not be the
aggressor, in order to preserve the political ad-
vantage of being the party attacked.
The Russian Field-Marshal Bariatineki, who
has been received by the King, has no political
mission.

The Duke of Coburg, now in Berlin, will not
assume a Prussian military command. His rela-
tions with the Court are of the most cordial nature.
The convocation of the Saxon Diet for an extra-
ordinary session is regarded as owing to the per-
sonal decision of King John, and as the first result
of the late endeavours of Queen Amelie and other
influential Saxon personages to impart to the
Saxon policy a more peaceful character.

PRUSSIA AND BADEN.
CARLSRITHE, MAT 25.

tection.

the Paris Temps of yesterday :—" Paris, May 23.—M. N.

came and woke me up in my house this morning, showing
me his band of office and a warrant issued by N. Gone*,
Juge cr instruction of the Paris Court, in virtue of which
he proceeded to search and most minutely examine my
letters, notes, manuscripts, and wise all the publications
on Paris I have issued—Paris /tonnes, Paris Char-
latan, Paris Beliffieux, Paris en Rose, Paris en .Noir,
publications which are not periodicals, have no office or
subscriptions, but which it appears there is a desire to assi-
milate with the periodical press. In this long ramble
among my numberless papers, I regret that under the pre-
text of taking what relates to my ` Paris,' manuscripts of
literary works were seised, together with publishers' anal
printers' bills and accounts of debts owing to me and by
me, which render it impossible for me toarrauge my affairs.
I regret that the seal of the agents acoompanying the
commissary—very polite himself—went so far, while I was
in bed, as to lead them to rummage the pockets of my
i coat, my purse being alone respected ; and that
