It is entirely in connexion with such private specula-
tions that Messrs. Wedecke and Freyburg have been
accused of frauds and impositions. M. Stieber, who
had promised to defend M. Wedecke, has refused hint
his assistance now that he has been made acquainted
with the true character of the case.
The approaching marriage of the Princess Louissif
of Prussia, to the Crown Prince of Prince of Sweden,
is much spoken of at Berlin.
There is also a report of the marriage of the Princess
Caroline, born August 5, 1833, only daughter of the
Prince of Vasa, son of the predecessor of Bernadotte)
to Prince Francis Gustavus Oscar, of Sweden, born
June 18, 1827.
The Universal Prussian Gazelle says that his Ma.
jesty the King of Prussia has nominated M. Vorl
Bodelswing Royal Commissioner of the State.
VIENNA, DEC. 28.—The Israelitish community of
this place, in reply to a petition addressed to his Ma"
jesty the Emperor for civic emancipation, have beef*
informed that the subject shall be submitted to the
proper authorities, who shall take it into their deli-
beration. The fetitioners themselve express the
opinion that the present period is not one from which
they expect to obtain the complete fulfilment of their
wishes, and that they have therefore confined their
request to these main points—viz., the abolition of the
tax upon Jews, the abolition of the tax upon residence,
and the according of the privileges of burghers and
masters. The Government is said to be favourably
inclined to grant all these petitions, and it is probable
that a very essential amelioration will take place in the
state of the Jews, and that in regard to the third point,
that of granting them the privileges of masters, will
be conceded—that of civic rights will probably be
withheld, for it is as.violently opposed to the prescat
state of popular feeling as possible.
The Arch-Duchess Maria Anna is seriously indis-
posed. His Imperial Highness the Arch -Duke
Ludwig is likewise ill, though nothing serious is ap°
prehended in his case.—Brussels Papers, Jan. 5.
