FROM THE lI.IIIBURGH MJILS.

RNTISBON-, Jr;. I.s.—The day before yesterday
M. BILDT, the Envoy for Swedish Pomerania, gave
in the following

DECLARATION,

"- His Swedish Majesty has di'reeted the Under-
signed, his Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni-
potentiary, to declare to the Diet of the Ger Man EM-
pire, that the offences daily committed by many Mem -
hers of the Empire, against the Constitution they have
sworn to maintain, are contraryto the principles of ho-
nour and virtue. His 'Majesty' has long since fore-
told the unhappy consequences of the disputes which
have prevailed among the Members of the Empire,
as well.as the consequences of the want of respe&
which they haVe manifested towards the German
Constitution. The sentiments and principles of his
Majesty' are too well knOwn, and' have been too
often expressed to the Diet, for it to be necessary
that he should repeat them : especially at a time
when we must not speak the language of ho-
nour; and still less observe its 'laws, , if we wish to
be ,heard. • His Majesty, therefore, considers it as
beneath his dignity;
.from this day forards; to
take any part in the deliberations of the Diet, so
long as its decisions shall be under the influence of
usurpation and egotism.
(Signed) " VON BILDT."
It is supposed that M. Vox BILDT will leave Ra-
tisbon this day.
