GERMAN PAPERS.

GOTTINGEN, JAN. 14.—The proclamations which have
arrived from Han Over have not produced the slightest
effect in our city. The insurr,ction continues to increase
in the hostility of its character. A vigorous resistance is

lIANovEa, JAN. 15.—The Governor-General has again
addressed to the students and citizens two procla-
mations. The following is said to be the substance
of them :

"To the Citizens,—lnhabitants of Gottingen con-
sider well what you are doing. No city of the kingdom
has received so many benefits from the Government ; none
has so little suffered from the distresses of the times. The

times, I know, are difficult, but I have done my u
most to mitigate their afflicting pressure.

" Not only have your citizens never addressed any com-
plaint of grievance to me. but at this moment is your mu-
nicipiliry engaged, under its proper chief, in the work of
remodelling your institutions, to reform them for your ad-
vantage and in conformity with the popular will. And
you, for the gratitude upon which your King ought to cal-
culate in return, offer a revolt.

" Yes, by whatever illusions your seducers may mis-
lead you—whatever colours they may employ to conceal
and adorn the true nature of your proceedings, your arbi-
trary and unauthorised appointment of a Communal
Council, and your taking ❑p arms to oppose the King's
troops, your open resistance of the laws•—constitute an
open revolt.

" I willingly believe that many among you are but the
dupes of an error : let such hasten to return to their duty.
" Permit not to pass away nnprofitably the time which
I am willing to allow you for repentance : hasten to join
the troops of the King.
" I shall soon place myself within your walls, to receive
your wishes, and to transmit them to our Sovereign: con-
fide in his wisdom and benevolence.

" But if your submission be not absolute and uncon-
ditional, the Royal troops shall appear before your gates,
and compel you by force of arms to open them.
" I have given the command with sincere affliction, for
I love your city. I cannot forget the happy years that I
passed among you.
" Open your gates to the troops of your Sovereign, or
the blood which must be shed, and the destruction of your
city, now so flourishing, will fall upon your own heads ;
and the guilty may expect the most rigorous execution of
the law. " ADOLPHUS FREDERICK.
" Hanover, Jan. 13."

" To the Students,—My young friends, since the ordi-
nance of the 11th, your academic course has been at an
end—return to your homes—hasten to withdraw your-
selves from a cause which is quite foreign to your station
an 1 duties. Gentlemen, you who are Hanoverians, be-
ware how you dare oppose the King's troops; in doing
so you will be guilty of a fault hard to be atoned for; and
you who have come from other countries to the college of
George Augustus, to ,partake of that improvement in
knowledge which it free:), gives to all, repay not by ingra-
titude a benefit so valuable.

" Students in general, believe me that in no view can
your aid be of any real importance to the citizens. Its
only possible eff.•ct, if it have any, trill be to encourage
them in a course that must end in ruin.

"If the citizens do not submit, we will employ fifce
against them. You are warned—think of the grief that
misconduct on your part must occasion to your parents—
attend to my paternal advice—lose no time in leaving the
city, and return to your families.

" ADOLPHUS FREDERICK,

" Hanover, Jan. 13."
GOTTINOEN, JAN. 16.—The deputation which re-
turned from Hanover the day before yesterday has brought
the intelligence that our University has been closed until
Easter, and that the troops that surrounded the city have
received orders to commence the assault, after which the
University should be removed to Cella. The Govetnor-
General has issued a very prudent proclamation (vide
supra), ina which he recapitulates the benefits heaped upon
our city by the reigning house, and promises to lay our
complaints before his Britannic Majesty. These measures
have had their desired effect.
Our Provisional Council and National Guard have dis-
solved themselves ; the King's troops have been admitted
through all the gate•, and order is thoroughly restored.
The Senate of the University has petitioned to have the
suspension of the causes until Easter removed.
WARSAW, JAN. B.—All hope of reconciliation has va-
nished. The conduct of the Russian Cabinet is that of
extreme hostility. Lieutenant-General Wylezincki, the
Polish Envoy, has been retained in the most rigorous con-
finement from his passing the Russian frontiers ; on the
road be was conveyed on his journey only by night, and at
St. Petersburgh, in like manner, no communications are
permitted to be held with him but at night.
Every contrivance is employed to keep the Russian
people ignorant of the state of Poland. The most out-
rageous falsehoods are disseminated. Among others is a
tale of a general massacre of the Russians residing in Po-
land. The object of this system is of course to irritate
the Russians against us, but soon or late the truth Twill
transpire. Meanwhile the Russian Cabinet is willing to
destroy the tranquillity of two neighbouring nations, to
drive back its own subjects into the barbarism of former
years, and to lavish rivers of blood, to lay waste its fairest
provinces, \and shake the Sovereign's throne, all for the
sake of maintaining the principles of despotism.
POLAND, JAN. 8.-Ten new regiments of the line have
been formed. The regiments already organised have been
all placed upon the war establishment in respect to pay,
rations, &c.
In the city of Swakki, the married women have formed
a patriotic society, and have subscribed their wedding rings
as a first offering to the public service.
FRANKFORT ON THE MAINE, JAN. 12.—We have hope
here of a relaxation by the senate of some of our more ob-
noxious laws; of one in particular, which will diffuse joy
through a numerous class of our fellow-subjects.
But fifteen Jews are permitted to marry in one year in
Frankfort. This harsh rule is enforced by a law passed
subsequently to the liberation of Germany, to which the
Jews contributed in an important degree. This immoral
and tyrannical law it is hoped will be speedily repealed—
indeed, one is surprised that it has been so long permitted
to disgrace the policy of a free city.

The petition to the KING for a commutation
of the punishment of the convicts now under sentence of
death for machine-breaking, received 581 signatures, many
-of those who signed it being highly respectable persons. It
has been since forwarded to Lord MELBOURNE, for the
purpose of being submitted to his MAJESTY. Among those
by whom the petition war signed was, we have been in-
formed, the !ady of Mr. Baron BAYLEY, who, with five
other ladies, called at the Old Ship' for the purpose. An
answer has been since received by Mr. MILFORD, one of
our Magistrates, who transmitted the petition to the Se-
cretary of State, acknowledging its receipt, and informing
him that it would he submitted to the proper quarter.—

A R UNDE L.—The di,graceful scene conse-
quent upon the assembling of a new Parliament was exhi-
bited here on Friday last, when 280 of the free and inde-
pendent electors of this borough—being about three-fourths
of the whole—were paid a bonus of 101. each, in conside-
ration for the vote given to Lord DUDLEY STUART. The
money was paid with the u,ual precaution, in an uninha-
bited house belonging to the Duke cf NORFOLK. A like
sum is expected from Alderman ATKINS, making 201. to
each voter. If the Ministers really mean Reform, the
abomination of Arundel must surely be washed away from
the representation. We hope next week to give a correct
list of all those who have been so base as to receive this
paltry bribe for the prostitution of the noblest privilege of
freemen. We shall do so, because we consider that such
base transactions completely sever the tie between the re-
presented and the representative. Lord DUDLEY STUART
having bought his seat in the House of Commons, and paid
for it, is virtually without constituents. Alderman AT'
KINS's vote on the Civil List has been generally disapi.
proved of here; but why should the corrupt voteorts.

in preparation, should the Government be rash enough to
attempt the use of force.
Our smiths are occupied day and night in the manufac-
turing of pikes, swords, &c., and we can confidently count
upon the aid of 60,000 peasants of the Hartz, who are
ready to fly to our banner upon the first peal of the tocsin ;
every moment brings in new deputations from the small
towns and villages of the country, bearing offers of cd-
operation and assistance.
On the other side the troops of the line cantoned in our
neighbourhood are bitterly ex tsperated against the students;
and as the latter are wrought up to a high pitch of enthu-
siasm, a dreadful effusion (4 blood must be expected,
should the Government attempt the forcible execution of
the 'measures which it has threatened.
The city gates are barricaded with beams, carriages, &e.
To-day, it is said, that the Government means to sur-
round the city, and then attack it by simultaneous assaults
on every side.
At Osterode the insurrection hqs had an unhappy
issue. The city, too feeble to offer any effectual resist-
ance, has been invested by the troops of the line, and the
authors of the original movement, Doctors Kocsieger
and Freitan, have been arrested, and conveyed to Ha-
nover in irons.
