The most singular rumours are in cirealation,
relative to the project of the Great Powers to take
measures for insuring tranquillity in the interior
of I:ermany and in holy, in the event of a icor
taking place between Russia and the Porte. It
is with this view it is said, that • Prusio-Saxon
army will assemble on the banks of the Elbe,
whilst on Anstro-Bavarian army will tale up its
cantonments on the banks of the Rhine. Fifty
thousand men are assembled in the environs of
Berlin for the purpose of exercise during the
autumn. The assemblage of so considerable a
force gives rise to innumerable conjectures. The
reserves and the landwehr df the first and second
levy have received orders to recall their men absent
on leave, so that they may have joined their regi-
ments in the beginning of Septeuther.--(Gazelte

little property the father possessrd having been
confiscated, died of a brutes' heart.
