PRUSSI A.

In the sitting of the National Assembly on the 7th,
M. BENSCH proposed the following resolution :
" The Ministry is requested to propose to the King
a general amnesty for all political offences, as well
as those committed against the press since the March
revolution."

M. de Berg (one of the extreme Left), to the sur-
prise of all parties, opposed the proposition, as calcu-
lated either to place the King in the odious position
of refusing, or in the no less painful position of ap-
pearing to yield the brightest jewel of his crown, the
prerogative of mercy, upon compulsion. The ma-
jority of the House were of the same opinion as M.
de Berg, for after a short but sharp debate the
urgency of the proposition was negatived. It is said,
however, that the King has already adopted the reso-
lution to issue an amnesty, and that it will appear
upon his birth-day. Let us hope that this act of
mercy will bear good fruit.
After this a most curious incident took place.
M. Pieper, a butcher from Feshhausen, rose and
said—" I hold it to be my duty, as a man of honour,
to state to the House that I was called out of my
committee room yesterday. Well, when I went out
2,000 dollars were offered to me, with 300 dollars
travelling money, if I would vacate my seat.—
(Immense tumult.) The miserable fellow who offered
this is present.—(Name, name.) It is M. Damitz
—(lmmense tumult)—of Reuhenbach. lam a poor
man, but 10,000 dollars would not tempt me to for-
swear my duty.—(lmmense applause.) I do not
belong to the Extreme Right, nor to the Left, but to
the Centre. Woe to him who seeks to seduce me."

In the same sitting a motion for the total abolition
of all :game-laws was carried by a majority of 271
to 69.

Parliament for the protection of the Assembly and
the officers of the central Government. All attempts
upon the Assembly are assimilated to acts of high
treason, and punishable with imprisonment for from
10 years, to,for life. All assemblages of people in the
environs of the Assembly which shall not disperse at
the first summons shall subject the parties to impri-
sonment for from three to twelve months. All
meetings in the open air within five German miles of
the Assembly are interdicted, under the penalty of
six months' confinement. All acts of violence, threats,
or insults against the Assembly, its members or offi-
cers, are to be punished with imprisonment for from
six months to five years. Some of these provisions
are made to apply also to the agents of the central
government. Several amendments were proposed and
discussed, and the debate was adjourned till the 9th.
