RBIJRG, Deo. 8.
For a cusiderable time reports have been rife
bore and in Altona of en approaching change in the
command of the army. That which appeared then
most unl,kely has now come to pan. Yesterday
evening General Willieen received his dismissal at
Ramberg, and laid down the command, which has
been provisionally conferred on Major-General von
Horst. The importance of this event needs no ex-
planation, inasmuch as it betokens a change in the
war system. And it may be concluded that General
Horst (formerly a Prussian colonel) has, as is
generally believed. determined to act with a resolution
independent of the titadtholderate.
Oar Berlin correspondent writes as follow.:
BERLIN, Die 8.
The Dresden conferences will not meet on the 18th
of the month as was originally intended. They will
be delayed until the 18th. Count Alvensleben has, I
hear, refused the appointment of Prussian plenipo-
tentiavy. Hanoverian journals state that the Minis-
of Foreign Affairs, Baron Munchanen, will
lent Hanover. Hofrath Werner, who was men-
yesterday as the probable representative of
t, is Undar Secretary of State for Foreign
, and the right hand of Prince Schwusenbarg.
His Alamos over the latter is understood to be very ,
great, and his knowledge and abilities have very often
been put in requisition on the German question. He
was employed in the State Chancery tinder Metter.
!lid, with whom he was a 4reat favourite. Under
the present director of foreign Affairs of Austria.
Hofrath Werner has acquired very large influence
over the foreign politics of the empire.
The Berlin pavers occupy themselves with the con-
ferences at Olmuts, and circulate numerous guesses as
to the real nature of the arrangements come to at
Olmuts. The announcements made by the Deuteehe
Reform are disbelieved, and justly, for of late what- I
ever it has contradicted has proved true, and most
of its assertions have proved false. The public hu se
often been deceived in this manner that it has sunk
into entire apathy on all political questions, and was
only roused into an:nansecent enthusiasm on being
called on to arm and thrash the Austrians. They
answered the call for no other pnrpoee than mere
fighting, and, ignorant as most of them were as to the
real nature of the cause which they were to de-
fend, it is easy to understand that, u the
affair has proved all moonshine, they will
relapse into greater apathy than before. It
is of no use for the liberal and enlightened press
of the country to (nits apprehension of possi-
ble inroads on the constitution by the government in
consequence of the stipulations of Olmuts. Then
alarms are read with indifference by the majority of
the people, and though the denials of any such
intentions pat forth by the ministerial organs, ought.
as a natural consequence, to lead to the conclusion that
the apprehensions of the opposition are well-founded,
they are nevertheless entirely disregarded. The
majority of the plpulation of Prussia has become
callous to the benefits of constitutional liberty, and,
imitating the example of the democratic party, they sit
quietly down waiting for the things that are to coins.
They have perceived the deceptions and treachery
which have been practised upon them, but they feel no
annoyance—no anger,and are if any thing more loyal to
their King, though distrustful of his government, than
ever they were before. The mighty events of 1848,
the uncontrolled influence and power which every
individual then possessed, have proved too great for
minds of the middle and working classes, and the re-
action roost work its own cure. At this moment the
government may take what measures it pleases. Herr
von Mantruffel may, if he be desirous of au doing, dis-
solve the Chambers, alter the constitution so u to re-
store the Estates General of 1847; and the bulk of
the people will look quietly on, though they will not
fail to remember the event whenever they awake
from their present apathy. The Rhine provinces are
perhaps the only portion of the kingdom in which
popular indignation at any such measures would be
manifested, which, however, en armed force would
speedily smother. The question of infringements of
the constitution has been raised by others, not by me ;
1 merely wish to show that the ministry will not have
any great difficulties to overcome, should they intend
to prove the truth of the apprehensions enunciated by
the constitivional party.
Several of the papers cotfirm what I stated
yesterday respecting the opposition likely to be
manifested by Bavaria and Wurtemburg to any
settlement of the German question contrary to
the treaty of Bregenz and the resolutions of
Warsaw. It is added further that Saxony
shows similar signs of preparatory discontent.
They appear to have received communications of the
state of affairs from Count Thin, and have written
to their governments for fresh instructions. It is
understood now that Austria does not disarm imme-
diately, but is collecting troops from Galicia and
Bohemia. The direction of the Northern Railway has
received orders to be prepared to transmit 25,000 men
from Galicia to Hoheastadt on the Bohemian frontier.
Count Rechberg has been removed from his face-
tins es commissary of the Bundestag in the Elec-
torate, and has been replaced by Count Leiningen.
Prussia is about to appoint General Peucker to accom-
pany the Elector to Camel.
The Uncalsier mentions a report that the Staathal-
terechaft have applied to the King of Hanover to
mediate between them and the King of Denmark.
They consider the Duchies to have been so shame-
fully betrayed by Germany that they prefer any inde-
pendent settlement to that which will be thrust upon
them by the latter.
Five Austrian soldiers with their arms deserted
last week to the Prussian troops at Reiner!, in the
New Oder district. They will be delivered up to
Austria, if reclaimed.
It was stated two days ago in the Dekteeha
Reform, that at a meeting of the deputise be-
longing to the opposition, which took place
immediately after the adjournment, it was moved
that on the re-assembling of the Chambers,
they should not answer the summons. The
Constartimmel denies that any such motion was
made. The members certainly met, but resolved to
resume their plans of opposition to the government
on the 3rd of January, exactly at that point where
they were interrupted by the adjournment of the 4th
of December.
Herr von Manteoffel has had several interviews
with the Prime of Prussia since his return from
Gluts. The Prince is said to maintain his warlike
views, and to be extremely indignant with the sallo-
west come to at Olmuts.
It is reported that Herr Le Coq, the present Under-
secastary for Foreign Affairs, will be removed fronthat
pest. Other changes in the foreign and diplomatic ser-
vice of the ounizy are anticipated. Those which are
known are the following Major-General Rochow, at
present ambassador at Bt.Peteesborg,is to be removed
to Vienna. This officer has bees nothing more nor
lass daring hie residual in Ruda, than a weak tool
of the Emperor, whose dictates and wishes wen con-
sidered by him to be of more importance than the
independence of his country. The Conatiltstionnel of
this morning attaches political importance to this
change. Count Bernstor ft at present in Vienna, is,
according to the same journal, to be transferred to ,
St. Petersburg. The latter announcement rests solely
on supposition, for it is generally understood that the
present minister for foreign affairs, is extremely dis-
satisfied with the conduct of Count Bernstorff in
Vienna.
The Superior Judicial Tribunal of Prussia has just
pronounced a remarkable legal opinion on the German
essethational question, which shows how fully the
sleds of the functionaries sitting in that court have
boss Welded by the casuistry manifested on thin
question. A case arose several months ago in which
a man was accused of treason against the Bond.
I do not remember the particulars of the
offense, bat the legal advisers of the offender
pleaded the nonansteetes of the Band, and therefore
of its constitution. The ease was argued and re-
argued until the middle of last month, when the
Supreme Tribunal pronounced two judgmensuAllo
question. They are published in the journal et -tin
Ministry of Justin, and it 'Ohs seen that that men-
prise the opinion held by the government throughout
this question, that the oonetitution still exists, and
that the rights and Maio arising out of U are still
binding.

Next in rotation, in the present crisis and cootie-
Tony, have come the Quitag's aurora to the City
eddresses and the premier date's disclaimer, as a
Raman catholic. of Cardinal WISEMAN'S ultramontane
pretensions; both, in their relative places, document
of importance : for,. though the royal replies are o
ministerial preparation, they manifest that sense of
national independence and of faithful protestanusm
which has found universal voice throughout the
country, and indicate en accord between the people
and the sovereign that must result in something more
than words sad enthusiasm. The difficulty is no
longer about doing something, bet that be something
to be done shall be complete and comprehensive ; that
it shall tones repel the aggression which has roused the
kingdom to a knowledge of the treachery that invoked
the aggression ; and effectually check in time coming
the recurrence of the treachery itself. To place the
stamp of legislative reprobation and national scorn
on the papal trespass. is a slight matter early accom-
plished, and worth little in itself when enacted. That
performed, the real work remains behind ; and, fading
to perfect it, Lord Jong Meant. will have failed in
reaping the great object for which, on his motion,
the Quite/4'B subjects have been excited.
For that protestaatism, of which the QUEEN has, on
her minister's advice, now linemely proclaimed her-
self a faithful adherent, is not, it is very apparent,
safe in the guardianship of an episcopacy which
thrice rewrote its addrees to the crown, each time
striking out pamages favourable to those views cm
which protestantiem mainly rests, and at last de-
signedly evaded any full and complete recognition of
the sovereign as the spiritual head of the church.
The protestantism of the QUEEN and her people
can be nopfficient protection in archidesoonal visit&
hone of tractarian churches, sanctioned by episcopal
consecration, encouraged by episcopal attendance, and
belauded in episcopal speeches still ler in a clergy
so generally willing and desirous to be clothed is
sacerdotal vestments and prelatural authority—so
eager to assign to the church of which they are
ministers a mystical character and mediatorial agency
—es the clergy of the English church. What, then,
is wanted from the minister and the legislature is
protection for the laity:of England against their own
bishops as well as against the POPE—against their
own ministers as well as Cardinal Wiseneg —against
the popery of Oxford as well as against the popery
of Rome.
There can be no smaller or weaker philosophy
than that which treats the present controversy as a
squabble between contending sect., or as an outburst
sot national intolerance. Bigotry we have, to doubt,
in abundance in England; with intolerance in reli-
gion we are, certainly, very amply supplied, and, if
Mr. Rot BUCK will allow us, with intolerance in
politics also. But, if there be much bigotry and
rest intolerance in England, there is also much reli-
gion ; and he is a shallow observer and an incomplete
politician who does not appreciate and understand
the power which religious considerations have
over the great majority of every influential
class. The intolerance of religious animosities
is not, it is granted, a spectacle that any right-
thinkirg man can take pleasure in ; but he
his read our history in vain who does not comprehend
how much of our national policy and of our liberties
are mixed up with, and have grown out of, our reli-
gious rivalries. To rend an empire by a dispute about
titles i., it may be admitted, deplorable folly; bat to
overtrick what the assumption of those titles indicates
would be little lees than national suicide.
That there are both bigotry and intolerance in the
premed crisis is probable; but that it is based on so
low and vulgar a foundation is utterly incorrect. It
springs from indignation at papal audacity and horror
at trectarian treachery; it aims at the repulsion of a
foreign aggression and a re-adaptation of the church
of England to the principles of the Reformation. So
regarded, it is by far the greatest internal question
that has occupied Ragland since the Reformation
of 16tori ; and on its settlement gristle depend.; the
future character and polity of this empire. But, then,
it can only be settled by something more serious than
wordy resolutions, trimming, haltiog, unmeaning epis-
copal addresses, royal sieechee, or even legislation
against popish title& "Less than thorough" will
not settle it. And Lord Jong RoesaLt, having
evoked the storm, must either rim to the greatness of
the emergency, or be destroyed in the whirlpool he
cannot otherwise control.
So far, no doubt, the movement has tended to
make Ireland a difficulty of whig government—a
difficulty, however, which may be very easy to
overcome. It may be hopeless to abate Pri-
mate Cuttem's pretensions; to wring from an
ultramontane priest his Italian prejudices and his
Roman ambition ; but it is net hopeless to conciliate
a brave and noble people by the removal of insults,
and by the substitution of justice; it is not hopeless
to endeavour to convince the moderate among
the Irish Roman catholic clergy, that to all that
is reasonable for the predication and exercise of their
religion, there is no objection nor opposition ; and it
cannot be hopeless to show the Raman catholic laity, by
reducing the established church in that island to its
reaper dimensions, that English devotion to the Ra
formation is quite consistent with regard for their
honour and respect for their faith.
It cannot, then, be a mere squabble between con-
tending sects that must thus precipitate the considers-
tion and settlement of the Irish church question, as a
mark of justice and symbol of peace to Ireland. Nor
is it a mere burst of nuance that necessitates a tho-
rough reform of the Church of England; for fruitless
I. these two respects, Lord Jong Roseau's letter
would be worse than political insanity ; it would be
senseless bigotry.
A thorough reform of the Church of England, we
say, bat not in a mere fiscal sense; not only la a
re-arrangement of its revenues; not only in a redistri-
bution of its parochial divisions; not only in an aug-
mentation of its working clergy and in a redaction of
its episcopal pomp and revenues: sot, in short, such a
material reform as three years ago Mr. Holleman
asked for and was denied by the whig government;
even that would not now satisfy Lord ABBLEY ; for
be, who then shrank from touching the falaic
of the old building lest it should fall, now
*matins it with destruction unless separated and
elegageg fees the medimval weight that oppresses it.
Greatly sa material, external reform was required,
tams more is now needed ; for at last we have
tbat the church, as it sow exists in prao-
des, Is set ties church which the Reformation founded
In 01.
Wirt SW Reformation intended—what legislation
liss MEM of the Reformation meant—and what the
Midas prepared by our reformers aimed at giviag
England—imam a church composed of a Christian cams
munity, with a defined faith, a fixed ritual, sail •
well-ordered ministry; not a church with any sup
posed commission from Heaven, or deriving its sr i
*Deity from the Apostles, either to give a law to the
people, or to assume by its inherent power i
a ministry amongst them ; a church in which them
should be common prayer, not sacramental sacrifices;
a church in which there should be plain, unostenta-
tious services in which we all should join, not a
gaudy display of mediatorial functions, a church
which should minister to and with the laity, not
interpose between them and salvation. Such was the
church the Reformation established in England ;
without a priesthood, without eacerdotal pretensions,
without sacrificial functions, without mediatorial
power ; where is it now ? Deeply still, doubtless, in
the hearts of the laity ; but rarely to be found on
the lips, or in the practice of the clergy.
In its steed, the church of England is with thorn
part of some intangible, mystical, supernatural or-
ganisation or corporation called the church catholic or
universal ; and in this church catholic, which is no-
where to be found, mists power infallible; and in the
aura of Ragland id • Flathead laving divine

protestant.
There is hope in this pluck, even though it be not at
present rightly directed, for the primary want of
county constituencies is indepethdence. That achieved,
intelligence and sound principle will follow in due
course. And it the "Dukery " lead the way to inde-
pendence, who need fear for the rest of English
counties? It is, therefore, a great matter they have
inthand, these tenant farmers of South Notts, in
pitting Mr. BARROW against Lord NEWARK.
Mr. Balmer is, to be sure, a protectionist: more's
the pity. But to wave the flag of protection at •
county hustings has become very harmless work; fag
everybody now knows protection to be a sham. It is
dead and buried; and what stalks about here and
there on these state occasions is its ghost. Tbis the
tenant Lerner§ bow to, rather because of their unwil-
lingness to admit their past error then from any faith
in the resurrection of tho reality; and this the equine
recognise and encourage, rather as an excuse for not
reducing rents than because they have any serioss
hope it will again give them act of parliament prices.
We most allow both a little time and privacy before
they finally disuse old cant phrases and shuffle corn-
oetely off their ancient hankerings. Let us be con-
test, in the meanwhile, that the substance is gone,
sad that the form only remains; that protection has
beanie oily the shadow of a great evil.
Bat Mr. atheow, the farmer's choice, is a protec-
tionist and something more than a protectionist. lie
is—what Lord NEWARK, who also affects protection,
doee:not pretend to be—a financial reformer, and as
nob almost adopts the wiry language of Sir JOSHUA
WALKOUT, Mr. Huwu, Mr. WILLIAMS, and, worse
than all, of Mr. COBDEN and Mr. Barest. Mute
then, the tenant femme of South Notts have selected
as their candidate a business-like squire, who really
thinks that the country pays too much for its govern-
ment. Their man is a protectionist; but not a stupid
protectionist such as the Dukes would a year or two
ago have given them. He not only onientand. county
business, but has a string desire tocnt downboth county
and national expenditure. Now this is in reality what
the tenant farmers everywhere want; though they
have not ea yet the courage everywhere to express
their wants. Butplurk in England is an infectious
quality. ilexticulerly if once attended with success.
So only let the farmers of South Notts return on this
ground Mr. BARROW to parliament, and they will find
their cry and example wonderfully popular.
But there is not only rebellion in the Dukery, but
there is a split among the Dukes. The split would,
doubtless, never have been known bat for the
rebellion. But then it is: a great fact, and a notable
one too. Far what it indicates is this, that good land-
lords, such as the Duke of PORTLAND and Lord MID-
DLETON, won't make common cause with bad landlords
like Earl Maness. This, again, is another excellent
symptom. Political independence and a desire for a
reduction in public expenditure amongst the tenants;
and a separation between the good and bad land-
owners of the Dukery—what can look better? Yet
even this is not all : foe though the good " Dukes"
don't like to patronise national retrenchment, they
will rather risk that than assist the bad " Dukes;"
and so the Dukes of PORTLAND and NZ/VOMITUS are
content to support the farmer's choice, •rather than
moist Gas of their own class, who does not "do his
duty in that state of life in which it has planed
GOD to 01111 him." When we find both tenant termer.
and Dukes thus concurrentl rising above the pre.
judices of their:position in the vioelA ; and the Dukes
sacrificing a little to act with the farmers, why, the
world, we must confess, is moving, eves where pro-
gress was twat to be expected. It moves even in the
Dekery I
It is not of course to be expected that South Notts,
even if Mr. &meow prevails over Lord NEWARK,
will make a contribution to the liberal side of the
Home of Commons. But what is pleasant and
hopeful, is to see • county election getting into
new hands—out as it seems of the old ruts—and the
chances of a rational reasonable man being infused
into the conservative rants. Anything is better than
an adherence to family representation—a perpetua-
tion of old corrupt aristocratic pretensions in men-
ties—than sending, as a matter of course, • senseless
lord to parliament, because he happens to be the
oldest son of a house whose eldest sons have always
sat for the amok,. Far better than this is it that the
real constituency should send a stock or a stone to the
House of Commons—any thing rather then prolong
the farce of representation. The first thing to be
attained is county independence of such influence:
that secured, county intelligence, we repeat, will
follow.
No clan of the oommunity has so deep an interest
in reduction of expenditure in all forms as tenant
buses; for no class has so little money wherewith
to pay their quota of public expenditure, and no
the. needs the little money they have more in their
own trade. Yet there are they represented in the
House olConamans by men who will support any
extravagance, and vote for any estimate; by men
who have a direct pecuniary and a great social
iblemS is keeping up armies and navies to
tbe Menet possible point ; for by them they
Mod the pension list to their own fami-
lies. Why, with wily a soon of county members
similarly disposed to Mr. BARROW, the farmers'
nemiidate for South Notts, millions might be saved in
the estimates and the county rates placed under the
owitrel of the ratepayers. Bat until the °aunties
awe their independence and diepl iy intelligence,
tbo °Gantry will go on staggering under its present
bothers.

ALTONA, Dn.

It has been announced to the commandant that
yesterday • sharp encounter took place at °atoll with
• Danish outpost. We have lost no man. A
wounded Dane has been brought in as prisoner, and
among others two Danish officers have been killed.

HkNOVER. Disc. 4.
There is here in Son, at the instigation of
our ministry, a pi:Pr the closer union of the
North German, middle, and small states, with a
view to their joint operation at the free cont.-
emcee at Dresden, especially with respect to the
protection of important relations between our state
and Mecklenburg in the Steurverein (tax union) and
the Hanseatic states in their special free trade laws.

KIEL, Doc. 6.
The rage for discoursing on the suspension of the
fundamental article of the state was so much dimi-
nished by yesterday's consultations that to-day that
debate war altogether put aside. The proposition to
give •alidity to the law of the 6th of October of this
year till the 10th of March of next year, that a peace
with Denmark may be even earlier concluded, was
agreed to. By a very mull majority was the resolu-
tion come to, after the words "peace with Denmark,"
to add " or truos."
