GERMAN PAPERS.

CARLSRUIIE, SEPT. 6.—The convention be-
tween the Grand Dukes of Baden end Hesse
Dramstadt, for facilitating. the commerce between
the two States, is preceded by an exposition of
the principles ,by which the t" o Courts have been
guided .on this occasion. They are perfectly
agreed in considering--
I. The unlimited liberty of reciprocal intercourse, not only
between the two States, but with all the states of the Confede-
ration, and the greatest possible facilities to commerce with fo-
reign countries, as one of the most important means to promote
the welfare and prosperity of their subjects, and will on all oc-
casions direct their joint efforts towards the completest attain-
merit possible of this object.
2. But as from the partial assertion of the principles of free
commerce in their relations with other States, which fetter trade
by prohibitions and high duties, evident loss would accrue to
their subjects, they consider the Introduction, or the continu-
ance of similar regulations, as indispensably necessary to pro-
tect their own productions, and to prevent such loss.
3. The two Courts continue to entertain the wish to put a
stop to the injurious re-action which these regulations have on

the commerce of their own anti other States of the Confedera-
tion, whose Governments are, like themselves, disposed in fa-
vour of the principles of free trade, by entering into a conven-
tion with them for the introduction of a joint system of duties
and of commerce, and thus lead the way to give more free-
dom to foreign trade by commercial conventions with foreign
States.

4. But as such a convention cannot be effected without the
concurrence of several States, and the negotiations that have
been carrying on with this view with severa'. other States, have
not yet led to the desired result, the contracting Powers have
no means of attaining their object as far as possible under such
circumstances, but to introduce by special Conventions all such
facilities as are compatible with the system of duties generally
• existing, which they at the same time consider also as a suit-
able preparation for a general agreement on one joint system
after the hoped-for accession of several neighbouring States.
VIENNA, SErr. 12.—Their Imperial Majesties will pro-
long their stay in their flintily domains for some days beyond
their first intention ; they will not be back here before the 14th.
-His Imperial Highness the Archduke Palatine of Hungary is
here with the Princess, his consort, and the Prince and Princess
of Saxe Hildburghausen.
11Ent tsr SEPT. 14.—The King left Breslaw on the stb,
with the Princess 14oulsa, for Fischbach, an estate belonging to
Prince William, his brother. On the 7th his Majesty and the
Princess arrived at Leignitz, where the Prince and Princess
Royal made their entrance the same evening. There were at
lieignitz at this time a very great number of illustrious visitors,
among whom were the Grand Duke Nicolas of Russia, and his
consort ; the Duke of Cumberland, most of the Princes of the
Royal Family of I'russia, and many others.
Fimm THE MAINE, Scar. 12.—The Journal des Debalt
and other ptmers have lately stated, in articles dated from Bel-
singborg and Stockholm, that an agreement had been made
between the Swedish Government anti the Russian Ambassador
at Stockholm, respecting the giving up of the property of the
former Royal Family, and the discharge of an annual income.
All this seems to be founded on a mistake, since, according to
authentic accounts, nothing more was in question than the
giving up of sums of money, the private property of the family,
and her Mejssty Queen Frederica entirely renounced any
annual allowance, anti desired only her own private property,
which was.detained in Sweden ever since the revolution. It
is further affirmed, that Prince Gustavus had no concern what-
ever is these negotiations, having previously given up to the
Queen, his mother, the share of this property which belonged
to him.
