HUNGARY.

The KING has appointed the Archduke STEPHEN
his Viceroy in Hungary, and the neighbouring
countries. The Archduke STEPHEN is to sanction
the projects of law of the Hungarian Diet, and
exercise all those rights which the Hungarian Con-
stitution reserved exclusively to the KING. The
KING has also given his promise that he will take up
his residence in the capital, with his family, in the
course of this month.

KOPUTH, the Minister of Finance, has remained in
the Cabinet, MESSUROS, the Minister of War, and
SZEMURE, the Minister of the Interior, having de-
clared that they would not remain in without KO-.
PUTH. Indeed it would be impossible at the present
moment to form a new Ministry in Hungary which
was not animated with the guiding spirit of KOPUTH.
Four regiments of cavalry have received orders to
march to the threatened points. A Hungarian ge-
neral has been dispatched with the supreme command
to the Bannat. From Szegedin downwards on both
banks of Theis very strong forces are stationed, both
of military and National Guards.

FRANKFORT.
THE GERMAN PARLIAMENT.

In the sitting of the German Parliament of the
Bth instant, AUERSWILD'S report on the armed force
of Germany came under discussion.
The main features of this report are the follow-
ing :

The military force of Germany consist at the present
moment-
1. In the federal contingents according to
the federal enrolment of 1819, which
amount in round numbers to 403,400 men
Deficiency in the obligatory contingents 6,000 „

Remainder
2. In those troops supplied by Prussia,
Austria, Bavaria, Wurtemberg, Hano-
ver, and others of the larger States,
over and above their stipulated ratio of
contingents, these amount to 88,900
men; deduct 15,000 for recent changes
and casualties, and we have a re-
mainder of 73,000 „
3. In the contingent troops of those parts
of the Prussian territory which have
but lately been received into the Ger-
man Confederation, these amount to
about 40,000 „

Total 510.000 men
The report does not regard this number as sufficient to
secure Germany against foreign invasion; and moreover,
it does notconsider the number of disposable troops to ex-
ceed 428,000. It therefore proposes that the National As-
sembly be pleased to call upon the German Governments
to increase their contingents, that the aggregate armed
force of Germany may amount to 908,000 men, thus
requiring an additional levy of 480,000 men. This is
only to be a preliminary step to the general arming of
the people. With a standing army of 900,000 men, it is
considered that Germany will be enabled to withstand
all possible invasions.

liadowits proposed the raising of a powerful land-
wehr, to consist of young men of twenty to twenty- five
years of age. _ _

- Wiesner. disapproved the motion of the committee, and
suggested a national guard of 500,000.
Mayer did not consider that any hostilities were to be
apprehended on the part of Russia. Germany, in case
of foreign invasion, might well trust to its
own resurces, and its safety could not be better ensured
than by placing itself in the position proposed by the
committee.

Blum would not hear of a standing army, it was
►lways the organ of tyranny.
The discussion was adjourned.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, JULY 6.—The Zeitungshalle says the
report that M. MARCKER will quit the Ministry, in
consequence of a difference of opinion respecting the
elections of the jurymen for the new courts of the
trials by jury, is confirmed. M. HANSEMAN wishes
to connect this election with a census, to which M.
MARCKER is decidedly opposed. Accordingly the
Ministry would again be as good as dissolved, for it
is affirmed that M. VON AUERSWALD has also re-
quested his dismission. Hainburgh Borsenhalle,
July 7.

At the close of the debate in the Prussian Na-
tional Assembly, on the 4th of July, M. AUEBSWALD
made the following declaration :
" Upon first accepting office, the Cabinet devoted
most serious attention to the German question. His
Majesty's Government, as well as the Frankfort Na-
tional Assembly, being convinced of the necessity of a
provisional executive power in the person of a general
administrator, hailed with joy the election of the Arch-
duke John, whose noble and popular character offers the
best guarantee for a solid Government. We are disposed
to believe that his Imperial Highness will accept office,
and we cannot call to mind any circumstance that should
cause these functions to be vacated by him. We approve
of the salutary decision by which the administrator is
rendered irresponsible; nor do we object to his enjoyment
of the attributes of power from the 28th of June (that
is, from the day of election). It must, however, be pre-
liminarily understood (nur setz sick voraus) that the
(Frankfort) Assembly must not connect previous with
future decisions as to peace or war. If these Frankfort
decrees (regarding the war with Denmark) were pro-
nounced without the previous knowledge of the late
Cabinet, then we are ready to admit the pressing
urgency of circumstances as a satisfactory motive; but
we must consider this an extraordinary case, not to be
taken as a precedent for the future. We start on the
ground that the work of union may be brought to bear
through the union of all. If we build a house, we erect
it on the principle of adherent unity, so that it may
resist the storm. History will be the judge of all.

At the meeting of the Assembly on the 7th July,
Dr. Jecons of Berlin rose and asked leave to move—
" 1. That the Prussian National Assembly cannot ap-
prove of the vote of the German National Assembly,
which has constituted a national irresponsible adminis-
trator. 2. That the Prussian Constituent As-
sembly acknowledges the full right of the German
National Assembly to come to such conclusion without
consulting any Governments ; and that the Prussian
Government is not justified in making objections in this
respect."—(Leave granted.)
The question will, therefore, come on for debate in
a day or two; and as the President of Council openly
declared on Tuesday that the Government would not
admit the right advocated by Dr. JACOBS, he and his
Cabinet must resign if outvoted.
