VYOSI THY UPPIR RHINE.
The convocation of the Assembly of the States
of Wirtemberg for the 15th January, 1820, has
every where been received with great pleasure, not
only because it is looked upon as the realisisig of
the new Constitution, but chit fly because it quiets
many" apprehensions that have been conceived.
it having been generally reported that an appli.
cation had !meal made to the King, request.
ing him not to call the States together for the
present, but to wait till the termination of the
Conferences at Vienna. Hence people inferred,
that some important changes were contem-
plated in the constitutions of the States of the
South of Germany. All these reports. and the in-
ferences from them, are at once confuted by the
Rescript of the Kilig of Wirtemberg, and for this
reason chiefly this event is considered as of great
importance by the people of the States of Germany.
It has given great pleasure at Stutgard that the
King has summoned the assembly to meat in that
city, sod nut at Louisburg, as the Constituent A•-
semhly did. The particular circumstances which
formerly caused other measures to he adopted, have
now ceased to exist ; mutual confidence is esta-
blished, and the mo.t satisfactory result may be
expected. It is said that important laws well be
proposed to the two Chambers. They relate en-
tirely to the internal organisation—that is, Inc
finances, the adniitostrat in the strictest sense,
and the judicial proceedings. It is said that
on the last point opinions are divided. Many wish.
for the publicity of judicial proceedings, at least.
in criminal cases, ■eid the introduction of the trial
by Jury; others, particularly many able and expe-
rienced lawyers, are of a different opinion. It is,
however, to be hoped that the former opinion will•
prevail.
