The Prussian Gazette contains a letter from
Hanover of the 17th, which says :—" It appears
that the government has discovered a plot with e%-
tensive ramifications. Domiciliary visits have
taken place at Luneburg and Stacie. Up to the
present moment only individuals who had endea-
voured to debauch the soldiers have been discovered.
A drummer of the national guard, who some days
past made improper observations on the Queen who
was passing, was arrested, but the King gave er-
ders to have him set at liberty."
A Berlin letter of the 19th announces the return
to that city of the Marquis de Benalova, Ambasee'"
dor of Spain, and states that he brought from the
Queen the decorations of the Golden Fleece for
the Prince of Prussia, the Cross of the Commander
of the Order of Isabella for Baron de Rozenbergf
and that of Member of the Order of Charles
for Baron de Schenk.
