PRUSSIA.

A letter from Detain, dated June 9, says--It
ap-
pears that the district Government, the local Regie-
rung as it is called, which has its seat at Potsdam,
has taken the Berlin municipal executive body
(Magistrat) to task for taking part. in Ihe project of
sending a deputation with an address to the King.
As soon as the Regierung became acquainted with
the resolution come to by the city delegates on the
4th instant it warned the Overburgornaster of Ber
lin against associating with it the body of which he
is the chief. Before the warning was received that
association had taken plane. Thereupon the Regie
rung, on the ground that this was in cont-ravention
of the civic regulations, forbade the carrying
out of the resolution, and threatened further pro-
ceedings, but I hear that Over burgomaster Seydel
sent a spirited answer, and that he and his col-
leagues are not likely to allow themselves to be
intimidated. The Government pretends to restrict
them from discussions end demonstrations having
reference to political aff-irs, on the ground that
they are competent only for those of a strictly
communal nature ; but the magistrates reply that
the late acts of the Government are of a nature
very seriously to affect the interests of the city of
Berlin; and this is undoubtedly the case, for I
need hardly say that the trade of Berlin and of
Prussia is most seriously affected by the want of
confidence that exists, and by the apprehension
that the present rulers of the country will run it
into a war.

From Carlsruhe we learn that M. von Rozzen-
bach is ill of inflammation of the lungs, but it is
hoped that there is no danger. Germany could ill
spare one of her few able and patriotic statesmen.
A Swabian paper states that the intercourse be-
tween the Berlin and Carlsruhe Governments has
become very cool, which can hardly ba thought
surprising.

Several more provincial papers have adhered to
the protest of their Berlin contemporaries. The
Berlin Evening Journal, which I yesterday men-
tioned as having done the same has received its
warning in due course. A small humorous paper
published here has also been warned, on account of
some verses it contained.
A letter from Coburg, in the South German
Journal (friendly to Prussia, but excluded from it
by the Bismark Ministry) says that the Duke of
Saxe Coburg, who, with the Duchess, has gone to
visit some estates he possesses in Austria, contem-
plates a visit to the Imperial Court at Vienna. This
statement, should it prove well founded, is one of
the very strongest proofs that could be given how
completely the King of Prussia is alienating all his
friends. The Date's attachment to Prussia is well
known; he has proved it in many ways, amongst
others, recently, by the military convention in virtue
of which his little contingent of troops became de
facto pert of the Prussian army. His views with
regard to the German question have kept him aloof
from the Austrian Court and from all the Sovereigns
belonging to the Wurzbarg coalition. At Coburg,
says the letter referred to, it is perfectly well known
that it is the present policy of the Prussian Govern.
merit which has decided him to place himself on a
more friendly footing with those Princes. In February
he visited the Court of Dresden-,-a visit he for marry
years bad avoided, and that was the first step on
the new path into which M. von Bismark may claim
a considerable share of the credit of having driven
him.

A letter from Brussels mentions the return of the
Duke of Brabant from his travels abroad ; also that
the duel between Counts Branicki and Wielopolski
took place near Spa on the 4th inst. After one shot
had been fired on each side without effect, further
hostilities were put an end to by the appearance of
gendarmes, who arrested principal and seconds.
The distinguished Belgian painter, Gailait, who
resides in Paris, but whom King
Leopold has long
desired to see established in 'Belgium, has undbr-
taken the decoration of the Senate-house at Brus-
sels. It is to consist of a series of portraits of
illustrious Belgians, such as Charlemagne, Godfrey
de Bouillion, &c., and is to be executed, under his
superintendence, entirely by Belgian artists.
To-night's papers announce the departure of the
Duke and Duchess of Saxe Coburg for their estates
in Austria as having taken place. They were
accompanied by the Prince and Princess William
of Baden.

TOBACCO SMOKING,—As a habit it is most injuri-
ous both to the physical and mental organism in
the early periods of life. Whatever may be said for or
against tobacco, this is quite certain, that it should never
be indulged in until the body is fully developed. During
the tarly periods of life, when the youth is approaching to
his manhood, all the physical and mental energies are at
their full stretch to attain a certain maximum of growth
up; and I do not think the anti-
and power. To throw obstacles, therefore, in the
way
penalty of this development is necessarily to infl,ct
on it a which is life-enduring, and i
never made
tobacconists are saying a word too much when they urge
that the in •
creasing indulgence by our children and youths
in the use of tobacco is stunting the national growth, de-
forming the national life, degrading the national intellect.
and establishing a race which must necessarily posses a
limited farce, and transmit its own degradation to the next
and the next generation. I , indeed, there is one pint upon
which parental authority should be exercised, it is, I think,
in forbidding the use of tobacco until the child has become
a full-grown man and is capable of exercising his own inde-
pendent and manly judgment —Social Science Review.
