PRUSSIA.

fr. c

We extract the following from a Berlin letter of
the 14th inst.:--

We are told here that M. d'Usedom, albeit his
mission proved a failure at London, so far suc-
ceeded as to persuade persons of eminence there
that matters were not sn dark at Berlin as they
were represented ; that the Cabinet, and those who
rule the Cabinet, were well disposed to the West,
and especially to England ; that it was at heart
fully with us, and only required "time," modifica-
tion of forms, and, above all, an exhibition of con-
fidence and cordiality, to express its readiness to
acknowledge the December treaty, or " something
analogous." Now, all that can be said is, that
if there be any persons of political eminence in
London who place faith in affirmations that this
Cabinet is sincerely disposed to go hand-in-hand
with the West, or that it would not avail itself
of its readmission into the conferences for other
than obstructive and Russian partisan purposes,
then their faith must have completely nullified
•

their reason, obliterated their memories, and
blinded them to facts which stare all men here
broadly in the face.
There cannot be a more honest man in his Pm-

ssecl
sian Majesty's dominions, or one posse
lities better fitting him for the mission 0111,,.,
was sent, than M. d'Usedom. But the 74)

must, however, be observed, that) on

in the service of England during the,J
