PRUSSIA.

Advices from Berlin of the 30th state that the
strike among the printers still continues, though the
Pricssian State Gazette has published a single leaf.
It contains a proclamation from the Minister of
finance, stating that the numerous applications
which have been made to his department for the
Opening of a voluntary loan were submitted by a

Cabinet Council to his MAJESTY, who gave his sanc-
tion to the same. After commending the patriotic
zeal of the donors, the proclamation goes on to say
that the contributions may be made in current coin,
in gold or silver' in bars, and in articles of gold and
Silver.
The Allgemeine. Preussische Zeitung of the 30th of
April publishes a proclamation of the Commissioner
of Police, DIINUTOLI, who expresses his determina-
tion to send all printers, who are not natives of
Berlin, away from :hat town, unless they return to
their work in three (lays' time. Many printers will,
137 this time, have come up from the provinces, and
the intended demonstration has, consequently, entirely
missed its object.
The Preussische Zeitung states, that the authorities
°.! Danzig have resolved to put an embargo upon the
timber shipped in Danzig harbour for the Danish
Government as well as on that which lies still on the
Wharfs, as a reprisal against the capture of Prussian
sips by the Danes.
It is rumoured that Baron ARNIM has tendered his
resignation as Minister of Foreign Affairs.
The Berlin 'Change report of the 29zh of April in
the Allgemeine Preussische Zeitung asserts the con-
tinuance of the pressure which has long prevailed at
the Berlin Exchange. The pressure is to a great de-
gree caused by the mismanagement of the directors
of some of the railroads. Nothing short of a radical
reorganisation of the whole system of their administra-
tion is held likely to restore public sympathy and
ec'nfidence to this important branch. The new Go-
/erntnent loan has nevertheless met with a very fa-
vourable reception, and nobody doubts of its success
Among foreign funds the English and Russian have
riven from 78 to 86.

New riots have occurred again in several places in
South Germany, at Manheim, at Heidelburg, and
4.t Weinheim, but they were soon pacified by mill-
4rrY interference. A somewhat more serious dis-
thtl!bance took place at Bamberg a few days ago, and
%appeared to have a tinge of political tendency.

There is no fresh news of interest from Friburg
and the Breisgau. The rebels had gathered in con•
tioerable numbers near Kandern, where General
In Mus.NN, with his army, now amounting to nearly
