PRUSSIA.

The Committee on the Constitution have deter-
mined that the Houses are to be convoked yearly by
the KING ; in the event of the death of the Sove-
reign they are to meet ten days at, the latest after
his demise. From the death of the KING to the
swearing to the Constitution by his successor or the
Regent, the Ministers are collectively to execute the
royal power.

The KING will in future be not styled King of
PRUSSIA, but KING of the Prussians; and the ex-
pression " by the Grace of GoD" is to be used no
longer. The coins of the reign of FREDERIC 11. bear
the inscription " Frederica Borussorum Rex."

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

A letter from Appenrade of the 20th says—
" To day a prolongation of the armistice, for three
days' tranquillity (to the 23d), was agreed upon. It is
further stated, that there will be another prolongation
of the armistice for three days, if nothing positive has
been effected by the 23d.
"A document has been drawn up and communicated
to tha members of the Stock Exchange, at Stettin,
showing the loss sustained by that town alone, from the
war with Denmark. The calculation is nearly as fol-
lowst—Value of goods on account of Stettin embargoed
at Copenhagen, 502,705 r.d.; value of goods in 89 ships
detained in neutral ports, 1,273,000 r.d.; value of ships
embargoed or detained in neutral ports belonging to
Stettin, 919,000 r.d.; freight loss, 81,000 r.d.; total,
2,777,000 r.d.; to which sum must be added loss of inte-
rest, wages, supply, &c., calculated at 54,000 r.d. per
month. A surmise may be formed from this calculation
of the immense loss to which Northern Germany is sub-
jected, and apparently will for some time be subjected,
from this most inauspicious war."

ITALY.

LOMBARDY.

The Piedmontese Gazette of the 20th announces
that the Piedmontese troops arrived at Venice on the
14th, and were received with loud cheers by the
people. They were to take possession of the city in
the name of CHARLES ALBERT. The first battalion
that arrived was one of the regiment Savona : eight
more were expected from Ancona.

The Venetian papers publish a convention be.
tween Lieutenant MARSHAL 13TELDBx and the Pro-
visional Government of Venice for the exchange of
hostages.

In consequence of the arrival of Austrian
troops at Ferrara, the Prolegate of Bologna, Count
BIANCHETTI, immediately formed a committee of
war for the organization and mobilization of a military
force.

The Opinione of Turin states from Casalmaggioto
that, on the 13th, a body of 1,000 Austrians attacked
800 Tuscans and Lombardians at about four miles
from Rivoli. The engagement was obstinate on both
sides; the Duke of GENOA commanded the Italians.
The result was not known. Accounts from Rover-
belle, of the 16th, state that the operations before
Mantua and Verona are still in progress, and that the
cannon of the Austrians is heard every now and then
directed against the works of the besiegers. On the
15th a person coming from the Venetian territory
asserted that he had seen several dead bodies drifted
along the Canal Bianco and the Adige. This would
