PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin, of the 4th, says :—" Things
are not seen in such a favourable light as at the
first moment ; it is not now believed that the new
Emperor will make new concessions. The failure
of the negotiations of General de Wedell and the
exclusion of Prussia from the Conferences, which
is the consequence of it, produce a bad impression.
The King personally clings more closely than ever
to hia point of view, for he considers the last words
of the Emperor Nicholas as a sacred obligation
imposed to him. As to the Western Powers, as
they are making war on Russia and not on the
Emperor of Russia, it is not thought that they will
modify their policy or their pretensions in the
slightest degree."

The Military Gazette of Vienna has the follow-
ing :—" It is known that a son of Schfunyl had
been educated in Russia, and raised to the rank of
officer in a Russian regiment. The father, being
desirous of having his son restored to him, addressed
himself to the Emperor for that purpose, who gave
the young officer leave to return home, but at the
same time let him know that if he would turn Chris-
tian and remain in the Russian service, he should
enjoy the rank and title of prince. Schamyl's son,
however, preferred returning to his father ; where-
upon it was recommended to impose upon la im the
condition never to fight against Russia ; but the
Emperor declared that henceforth he must be
under the authority of his father, and that he must
be allowed to depart unconditionally ; which he
accordingly did."

A letter from Vienna says :—" It is Count
Frederick Thun-Hohenstein, formerly President
of the Diet and subsequently Ambassador at Ber-
lin, who is to replace at. Verona Count de Reelk-
berg, as civil administrator of the Lombard and
Venetian provinces. As to the post of Governor
of Venice, it is reserved for Count Bessenger, who
is at present Governor of the Tyrol."

The New Zurich, Gazette quotes letters from
Bellinzona, of the 4th, stating that the vote on the
new constitution was going on at that time, and
that the votes of 27 out of 38 districts were already
known—one only out of that number proved un-
favourable.

The German Journal of Frankfort states from
Rome that the Papal Nuncio at Vienna, Monsignor
Viale Prela, is to bo recalled to Rome, where he
is to succeed Cardinal Antonelli as Secretary of
State.

The German press agree in representing the new
Sovereign of Russia as being animated by pacific
sentiments. The National Gazette of Berlin goes
so far as to affirm, that the Czar Nicholas carries
with him into the tomb the influence which Russia
exercised in Europe.

A Russian prisoner brought to France after the
capture of Bomarsuud was lately tried at Rochelle,
by a Court-martial, for stealing a pair of boots, and
condemned to a year's imprisonment, which he is
to undergo in the military prison at Toulouse,
whither he has been sent. Ms name is Savalieff,
aged 35, and he has been 17 years in the Russian
service.

A retrograde movement of the Russian troops
has taken place on the Dniester, on the south-
eastern frontier of Galicia. A letter from Tar-
nopol says that the 30,000 men who had taken
up a position on the right bank of the Dniester,
to the north of Bessarabia, and to the south of
the circle of Gorftew are now concentrated in the
eolvirons of the little town of Zwan'ce, and have
only left a garrison of 4,000 men in the frontier
fortress of Choeiin. These facts appear to

confirm the opinion generally credited that the
movements of the Russian army on the Austrian-
frontier are defensive. At Nicolasieff, in the
government of Kherson, four new regiments
of infantry are being raised by Gen. Wiesniewski.
General Luders is still at Odessa on account of
health.

On the 27th Feb., the Pope issued the follouring
decree ;—" Entire freedom is restored to the towns
and ports of Ancona and Civita Vecchia, such as
they enjoyed before the law of the Ist Feb., 1850,
which stands abrogated. The Minister of Finance
is charged with the execution of the present decreer
which is to come into operation on the Ist
March."
