GERMAN Y.

The Diet had directed an inspection of the for.
,re,ses of the Bund.

It was not expected that there would be any in.
crease for the present of the military force in or
around Frankfort.

By a decree of the 12th of July the Government
of Hesse, on the authority of the Prussian and
Austrian Commissaries, has deferred the assem-
bling of the Chamber, and suspended the election
for it under the present law. The reason stated
is that the Diet of the Confederation being en-
gaged on a plan for settling definitively the
constitutional questions in Hesse, a new election can-
not be taken under the present law, which will be
modified and brought into agreement with the 25th,
27th, and Gist articles of the final act of the treaty of
Vienna. No election is therefore to be commenced
or completed, and the meeting of any Chamber is in-
definitely postponed.
Three officials of the Finance Department, who by
refusing to receive certain taxes, according to the
orders of September, 1849, caused a loss to the Trea-
sury of 4,000 thalers, have been condemned by the
Military Court to three months' imprisonment in a
fortress, and payment from their own means of the
amount to which the revenue was damaged by their
disobedience.

DENMARK.
THE NEW MINISTRY.
The Prussian Gazette of the 13th states that the
new Danish Cabinet has been definitively constituted
as follows : —Count de Moltke, President without
portfolio ; M. de Reedtz, Minister of Foreign Affairs ;
Count Sponnek, Finance; M. Dockum, Marine;
M. Madric, Public Worship; M. Tillich, Interior;
General Glensborg, War; Count Charles Moltke,
Minister without portfolio; and M. de Bardenfletb,
Minister for Schleswig.

ITALY.
The public exchange was opened for the first time
at Turin on the 14th. The old Piedmontese Five
per Cents. were done at 86; those of 1849, '5O, and
'5l, at 82.

We have already stated that the new Concordat
with the Pore was addressed by the Tuscan Govern-
ment to all the bishops of the Grand Duchy, accom-
panied by a circular of the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, which would appear to The a manifestinfrao.
tion of Art. 2 of the Concordat, since it asserts the
right of the Government to be consulted by the
bishops in all matters relating to the posting up of
episcopal notifications, and to the appointment of
preachers. The Risorgimento of Turin of the
13th publishes a second circular, dated the 30th
ult., and signed by the Minister of Ecclesiastical
Affairs, Signor BOLOGNA, which lays a restriction
upon Art. 5 of the Concordat, in so far as it relates
to the free communication with the Holy See gua-
ranteed to bishops, since it requires all Papal acts to
be submitted to the exequatur of the Tuscan Govern-
ment, and maintains moreover the rules established
in Tuscany since 1815 with respect to the communi.
cation of friars with their superiors.
The Milan Gazette quotes a letter from Rome, of
the 12th, announcing that Signor MAGNBLLO, the
Sardinian Consul-General at Rome, has left that
capital, and will in all probability not have a suc-
cessor.

WOODS AND FORESTS EVICTIONS.—THE
CASE OF ANN HICKS.
Tha magistrate at Alarlborough-street Police-court

travellers are, of all mcn,.the most social ; their profession
often places them within situations where they are obliged to
freely patronize the science of gastronomy, and to yield to
the seductive allurements of the " rosy god ;" no harm fr,)tn
these indulgences would ever be felt if they were to ti ike
two or three of Old Parr's Life Pills at night. This fine
stomachic medicine would, without the slightest disturbance
or pain, clear off all acidities, which would otherwise remain
in the stomach and bowels, and produce feverish headache,
and all other unpleasant symptoms. On account of their
mild and effective operation they are now more used by all
travellers than any other medicines are. For sea voyages
they are acknowledged to be all that is required, preventing
all scurvy, &c. Sold by Messrs. Barclay and Sons, Farri ngdon-

ills NEw ANTWERP STEAMER.—The Baron Osy,
the new Antwerp steamer, whose trial trip down the river
we noticed a short time since, made her first voyage from
Antwerp to London on Wednesday last, and reached her
destination at the St. Katherine-wharf, near the Tower, at
an early hour yesterday morning. The starting of the new
vessel from Antwerp was signalized by unusual demonstra-
tions of festivity and rejoicing, the whole city having lite-
rally turned out upon the noble expanse of quays to -witness
the departure of this splendid vessel,which took place amidst
the firing of artillery, a profuse display of flags of all nations,
and the enthusiastic cheers of the assembled multitude.
The passage was made in sixteen hours, being the shortest on
record, and against a strong head wind all the way. The
Baron Osy brought over about eighty passengers and a
valuable cargo in freight, and will, we understand, run every
week for the remainder of the season between the two ports,
under the management of her skilful and experienced com-
mander, Captain Jackson.

TAKING IT COOL.—As a specimen of European
coolness, we think the following plundering feat of a soldier
at the siege of Allighur worthy of repetition. Colonel
Skinner says—" As I was returning to the town, I saw a
European Fassing through the avenue with a bag of dollars
on his shoulders; be was attacked by two native troopers
who sought to deprive him of what he had bought so dearly;
when he found that blows would not keep the fellows off, ha
just took and tore the bag, scattering the cash. The raxal,
believing their booty thus secure, stooped down to gather
up the money, upon which he took his gun, shot the One,
end bayonetted the other, then coolly taking off his jacket,
ho fixed a knot upon the sleeves, and filling them with
dollars, threw them across his shoulders."
