GERMANY.

The deputation from the Prussian army sent to
attend the funeral of the Duke of Wellington will
consist of a General who commanded a corps at Wa-
terloo, two Adjutants, itse Colonel, and several officers
of the 28th Regiment of the Line, of which the late
Duke was the chief. Many other officers who were
present at 'Waterloo have offered to attend the funeral,
even if not appointed officially, but it is uncertain
whether it will be permitted; it is understood that
both the English and Prussian Governments wish to
avoid anything that might appear a national or po-
litical demonstration, or convert a solemnity into an
expression of hostile feeling.
A court-martial at Schleswig has found one of the
Danish officers who er.tered the service of the Pro-
visional Government in 1848, Captain von Wasmer,
guilty of high treason and rebellion. The Criminal
Code of the .Duchies has not been revised like that of
Prussia and other German States, and retains many
of the ancient penalties of the Code of Charles the
Fifth ; the sentence on Captain von Waamer, there-
fore, appears very inhuman, though only a degree
more so than the punishment the law of England
awards to the same crime. The accused is con-
demned to be degraded from his rank, to have his
right hand cut off while living, to Fin th*n bohoculod,
the body to be quartered and exposed on the wheel ;
the head and hand to bs fixed on a pole near it. The
of Denmark has commuted the sentence into
in prisonment for life.
