the Priz.sian districts still feels the fatal effects of the years
1806 to 1812, for at that time the richest landowners were im-
poverished. Since that time bad harvests, low corn prices„
and political junctures, have constantly tended to injure the
landed proprietors and farmers. Energetic and comprehen-
sive measures are, therefore, necessary to assist these pro.
vinces, and the presence of the King is the only thing that
can be effectual. But the moment is now come when something
may be done. It is to be observed, that a main cause of the
distress of this province is the rigour of the Custom-house regu-
lations on the side of Poland, by which the transit trade of the
interior has been wholly destroyed. Our commercial con- '
vocation with Russia expires in April next year, in order that .
'when it is renewed those articles may be struck out which are
unfavourable to us. It is wished that the King may see with
his own eyes the changes that have taken place in Prussia"
since the year 1806. The authorities and, the most distin-
guished of the landowners and merchants who are ,immediately
interested in the matter will probably present a memorial to
ti
the King.
VIENNA, Aua. 20.—The post from. Constantinople has
arrived, but brings nothing of importance. The capital was '
tranquil. The report of the capture of Ibrahim Paella
had died away ; it was affirmed, on the contrary, that
having received reinforcements, he had assumed a for._
midable attitude, and was preparing to take vengeance
on the insurgents. This would entirely change the aspect of
affairs in Syria. Great activity continued to prevail in the
arsenal of Constantinople. We learn from Belgrade, that the
Turkish Ambassador, who is going to Paris, was performing
quarantine there. His Majesty the Emperor will set out on
the 29th, for the camp at Turas. His Highness the Prince of
Furstenberg has arrived here from Bohemia.

DARMSTADT, AUGUST 21.—The sentence of the court-mar-
tial on the ex-Lieutenant Schulz (five years' imprisonment in
a fortress, loss of his commission, and of his pension),
has been unanimously confirmed by the Supreme Mi-
litary Court. All the acts of sophistry were tried •
to confirm this very simple affair, and to mislead '
people's minds, nay attempts were even made to intimidate the
judges by threats, and so influence their decision. The same
men who have been continually talking about the indepen-
dence of the judges and of the administration of justice, de-
swided in this instance the arbitr try interference of the Grand
Doke in the administration of justice in favour of the accused ;
they demanded that after the civil tribunal had declared itself
incompete.nt, the Grand Duke should by a stretch of power still
refer the affiir to the civil tribunal. What inconsistency 1 The
report of the Committee of the Second Chamber on this sub-
ject is in this reskiect one of the greatest curiosities ever pub-
lished. It must be confessed that the Government has acted
with the most laudable impartiality in this affair, which has
been often wholly misrepresented by foreign journals.----Frank- •

FRANKFORT, AUG. 25..—The Servians are impatiently looks
ing forward to the next meeting of the elders of the country,
inasmuch as the last meeting which took place at Niagocjewats,
had not reached the hopes of the people. They calculated on
obtaining a code of laws, and upon the establishment of a
Senate, whereby to put an end to arbitrary Goverament. It
was, in fact, known that the two secretaries of Prince Milosch
had been commissioned to translate the Code Napoleon into
the Servian language, but, when the results of their labour
was presented
to the Prince, with an intimation that he must
swear to observe the laws, he threw the Code into the ire, -
and said, " What shall I suffer laws to be made for me 7' •
After this declaration nothing was left to the Assembly buthta
proceed with financial matters, and impose taxes uponitdee
people, instead of redressing their grievances. —Journa
