PRUSSIA.

It is said that 140 of the Members of the National
Assembly have determined to attend the sittings at,
Brandenburg, but it is currently rumoured that it is
the intention of the KING at once to dissolve the As -
sembly, and to grant of his own full power a const!,
tution, the main features of which will be the follow-
ing :—Two Chambers, one cf Deputies (the electors
for which, as well as the elected, must possess an
income of about 301. sterling), and the other, also an
elective one, composed of persons having an incomo of
751. Another rumour is that the KING will convoke
the United Diet, which voted the Law of Elections,
and leave it to decide between himself and the As-
sembly.
Several private soldiers of the 40th Infantry Regi-
ment, in garrison at Mayence, were arrested on the
24th, far having uttered seditious cries; their com-
rades went to the colonel anti in a tumultuous manner
demanded their release, and it was only by the inter-
ference of some Austrian officers that they were in-
duced to return to their barracks. The next day the
regiment was sent to the Lower Rhine.
Tlae Inspector of Police of Dusseldorf has been
suspended for stating that the National Assembly
has acted legally. Six members of the Government
Board of that city have been dismissed, and two others
have in consequence resigned their places.
It is stated, in a Berlin correspondence of the
Neue Rheinische Zeitung, that 25,000 guns are still
" in good hands" in that city.
The Karlsruher Zeitung states that, according to all
appearances, another republican insurrection is at
hand ; numbers of young working men are assem-
bling on the Swiss frontier ; and in French Alsace
people, it is said, are busy recruiting for the " social
republic," holding out tempting promises to persons
who have served in the army.
The congress of deputies from the civic guards of
the kingdom is fixed to take place at Breslau, on the
4th of December next.

The arrival of VON GAGERN in Berri* on the 26th
had given rise to a rumour that the KING had sent
for him to construct a Ministry.
The Municipal Deputies of Berlin have published
the following address to the National Assembly

" HIGH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

" The rights of the nation have boon trenched upon
(yekrankt) by the Ministers of the Crown—encroached
on by Ministers who never did, and never can, obtain
the country's confidence, and, with most unfortunate
delusion, are hurrying our fatherland into an abyss of
destruction. The sacred rights of the nation have been
honourably combatted for—they have been ratified (be-
siegelt) by the Royal word; and the citizens of Berlin
will be the last to renounce them, for they were the first
who openly declared that we would side with the Na-
tional Assembly (out der scits. ache). The firm will of
our citizens, the will of a great nation, is—
" We will concord a constitution, but not accept one
as a gift.
" For this purpose we selected you. You, the men
of our confidence, belong to us. No servants of the
Crown shall take you from us. No one shall limit the
full powers which you derive from the nation. We never
were stronger than we are now, under the dominion of
force (gewalt der watfen), and in the consciousness of our
lkwful rights. This consciousness will strengthen you,

the National Assembly, in following with firmness and
constancy the path which will lead to the triumph of our
just cause. Under this consciousness you will know
how to protect you► own rights, as well as the supreme
rights of the Crown, and to bridle all passions that may
tend to overpass these limits. In the execution of these
duties you will be careful to avoid all measures that may
tend to the destruction of our fatherland. Therefore we
beg and implore of you to revoke forthwith the proposition
(antrag) for the refusal of taxes. We are too strong to
require the adoption of desperate measures (Why not
say illegal?) which must tend to entail incalculable
misfortunes upon the country and Crown, to produce
years of confusion, and to estrange men's hearts from
our cause. We implore of you to respect the rights of
the Crown, and the Crown will then respect our rights,
and henceforward select its advisers from amongst those
men who possess the confidence of the National As-
sembly. Wo pray and beseech the National Assembly
to stretch forth its hand to tin honourable arrangement
L.,64, cell it and beComine fO5 two co-
equal powers. An arrangement dishonourable to the
Crown would not only turn from you (the National As-

. -
sembly) the hearts, but all the convictions of the country.
We implore you, thereforb, *to direct all your efforts to
bear up with constancy and patience against the domi-
nion of force as well as passion—to hold fast to our just
rights—but to restore-peace to the country and give to
the people a free Constitution.

"Berlin, Nov. 23"
The Magian State Gazette of the 25th announces
that a Royal ordonnance, inserted in the Bulletin of
Laws, continues the tariff of customs duties which
was to expire at the end of the present year. This
continuation takes place in consequence of a con-
ference being at this moment open at Frankfort to
establish a general regulation of customs for the states
of Germany.
