Lle.nce of the Germanic Diet having resolved to
tinintain the Getman fleet to Lb- end of the year, the
Prussia, Government has abandoned the intention ot
purctiastng it or, its own account , but tiever! belees tt
intends to orgaoiz a email fleet fur toe
The Germanic Die, in one of its last sittings, re-
a dyed (sass the. Prussian Gazelle) that all the
mconbers k.f the Confederation shaft b.- humid to two-
fifths of the contingents ready within eight days after
receiving a notice chat their contingents are r. spired.
The Berlin journals eta that the Federal Pil.litary
Commit,sion has resolved that the ferierst gir-
rh‘ou of Franktert shall conriLue to be composed of
Austrian and Bavarian troops, with a detachment of
the troops of another State and a battalion of Frank-
fort troops. The whale force of the Forrimin are to
be placed under the orders of a general of the Con-
federation.

A letter from Berlin, of the 21st says :—" The
Emperor of AusTata will leave Vienna at the end
of the month to receive the King of PRUSSIL on
the Austrian frontier, and accompany him to Ischl.
It is thought that the afflirs of Germany will
there receive a definitive solution, particularly as far
at concerns the entrance of Austria entire into the
Germanic Confederation. Prince DE SCHLWARTZEIN•
BMW is desirous that the question should be decided
btfore the Germanic Diet adopts any other resolu-
tion. The King of Pat:mita has just conferred the
order of the Red Etgle, second class, on Count
LEON DE LA BORDE."

A letter from Vienna of the 19th says :—" The
legitimist circle at Frohsdorf was augmented yester-
day by the arrival of the Duke DE LAROCHE, the
the Marquis BOURBON DEL MONTE, and Count DB
BLACAS."

The Suabian Atereury states that the affairs of
Hungary have seriously occupied the attention of the
Council of Ministers at Vienna, which has decided
that the communal organization should be made pub•
lie in the course of the month. It is to resemble that
of the other countries of he crown, but each commune
may choose the Magyar) tongue or one of the Sla-
vonian ones. The Austrian Slavonians intend hold-
ing a congress at Agrath to propose the adoption of a
common language, which plan the Government does
not oppose. Several itussian savans intend being
present.

COWLS, ISLE OF WIGHT.
(FROIt OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

THE QUEEN'S CUP TO YACHTS OF ALL
NATIONS.
COURSE ROUND THE ISLE OF WIGHT.

Cowes, AUG 25.—We have been disappointed in
our expec-atioos of I, "12 krist breeze" to try the
Arnertcu'a poss.-rat in belt' a gale of wind such ss we
had on Sunday, indeed the breeze was nor. strong
~,ugh to tempt this crack yacht to risk her laurels,
and though are her post .he allowed the other yachts
to start with.,ut her. The small yachts had the best.
of It in hewing down the S. lent to the Needles;
when posing Cowes Castle the Wildfire was nearly
a mile ahead of the Bacchante, the Vulante being
half a wile astern of her. the Alarm being the nest
vesiel end close on her quarter. After they had
pass d about an hour the America's spirit moved her
as the breeze trt sheved, and she stood down atter the
contending fleet. The four first nearly kept their
position until off Ventoor, when there was shout a
quarter of a mile distance between them, the B-.c.
chsnte having the lead, the Wildfire second, Volante
third, the Alarm fourth. Soon after the Wildfire
lost her bowsprit, and the Alarm cutter, 193, Joseph
Weld, E q., passed the whole of them, and rounded
the starting vessel 2i- minutes before the Bacchante.
The America arrived 20 minutes afterwards, having
beaten the first of the fleet 40 minutes in the sail
round the Wight. The most marvellous stories are
told of her by the seamen of the different yachts.
Jack is very superstitious, and thinks that Old Nick
patronises all her movements. The wind never took
any vessel through the water at the rate she goes.
The sudden appearance of a steam-ship in 1800 would
not have had a more wonderful effect on our tars of
that time than this mysterious stranger on those of
this day.

TUB SaLmon.—The season does not improve as it
draws to a close. Old fishers declare that the fishing in the
Tay has been the most unproductive they have ever known.
The prices are now—salmon, 14d.; grisle, Is. ; and trout, 7d.
per lb. According to agreement the net fishing in the river
Doon closed upon Tuesday, the 12th inst. The season has
been the most unsuccessful in the memory of the oldest
fishers.—Edinburgh Witness.
Gum AcciDENT.—On Friday afternoon last, Mr.
Rose, son of Sir George Rose, one of the Masters in Chan.
eery, was accidentally shot at by his friend, Wm. Brougham,
Evq., another of the !blasters in Chancery. The particulars
are, that Mr. Rose was on •a visit to Lord and Lady
Brougham, and his Lordship's brother, W. Brougham, Esq.,
at Broug'.arn•hall, in Westmoreland, and on that day Mr.
Rose, and Mr. W. Brougham and others were out shooting
rabbits in Whimfell-park, between two and three miles dis-
tant from Brougham-hall, and nearly five miles from Pen-
rith. A rabbit started from its burrow, when Mr. Brougham
immediately fired his piece, not at the same time seeing his
friend, who unfortunately was standing in such a direction,
that* quantity of shot (it is thought about fifty pellets) were
lodged in the higher parts of his thighs and the lower part of
the abdomen. A conveyance was sent for, in which Mr.
Rose was taken to Brougham-ball. Presently three medical
men from Pewit)] were in at, endance, who extracted a great
number of the shot. Although Mr. Rose appeared to suffer
great pain, and lost a quantity of blood, )et it is supposed
that the injury which he has sustained is nut of such a na-
ture as to cause the most alarming anxiety a 4 to the result
of the accatent. Mr. Rose still iemains at Brougham-hall,
and up to this afternoon (Sunday) is doing well,
