GERMANY.

According to the German journals, a dissension
has arisen between Austria and Prussia relative to
the recent abolition of the Constitution in the Duchy
of Anhalt-Dessau, Austria approving of the act, and
Prussia blaming it. It is stated that the King of
PRUSSIA has sent a letter to the Duke of ANLIALT-
DESSAU, in which he strongly blames him. But the
affair altogether is considered of small importance.

Modifications have just taken place in the Bavarian
Cabinet. M. DE RINGELMANN, Minister of Worship,
has taken the department of Justice, in the room of
M. DE KLEINSCHROD, resigned from ill-health, and
M. DE SCHEENCK, Governor of Lower Bavaria, has
been appointed Minister of Worship.
A letter from Hanover states that, in accordance
with the Constitution, the Chambers will shortly be
convoked.

The Bwrlin journals of the 18th announce that one
of the Messrs. RoxuscuiLD had left that city for Lou-
don, to negotiate the loan of 21,000,000 thalers, au-
thorised by the Chambers in their last session.

The Post Ampt Gazette of Frankfort states on
authority of a letter from Vienna of the 18th, that
German Catholicism is to be forbidden in Austria.

MR. RAMSHAL—EXTRAORDINARY SCENE IN THE
PRESTON TM:ATI:E•—On Friday night the theatre was at-
tended by a very numerous audience, it being Mr. Harwood's
benefit. Sergeant Wilkins, ➢lr. Ovens, Mr. Thorburne, and
other gentlemen engaged in the defence of Mr. Ramshay,
were present, as also was Mr. Hughes, solicitor of Liverpool.
The performance had proceeded for about an hour, when Mr.
Ramshay entered the house, and on his appearing in the
boxes, some person called out for " Three cheers for Mr.
Ramshay 1" and the call was loudly responded to. Three
groans for the Liverpool Journal, and three groans for Mr.
1‘ bitty succeeded, and an extraordinary degree of excite-
ment pervaded the house throughout the remainder of the
evening.—Preston Pilot.

LEAP OF A PRISONER FROM A RAILWAY TRAIN.—
On Saturday morning Francis Farrington, one of the six
prisoners committed at the Police-court, Wolverhampton,
on the previous Wednesday, on a charge of night poaching
with violence, succeeded, by a desperate effort, in escaping
from the custody of Sub-inspector Thompson, of Bilston,
whilst being conveyed by train from Willenhall station to
Stafford. Farrington and several other prisoners were hand-
cuffed in the usual way to a chain. Farrington sat next to
the locked door of the carriage, and by some means succeeded
in working his band out of the handcuff unobserved. Soon
after the train had passed Wolverhampton station, and whilst
it was at full speed somewhere in the neighbourhood of Bush-
bury, Farrington jumped head foremost out of the window,
and tell on the outside of the line. Thompson endeavoured
to arrest the attention of the guard at the foremost part of
the train, but could not succeed in doing so, although it
turned out that the guard at the end of the train observed
Farrington lying on the ground as he passed, and thought he
was dead. He was also seen about a quarter of an hour af-
terwards near the line, bleeding from his head, by some
platelayers in the employ of the railway company, who in-
quired liow he got there, but they could not obtain from him
any satisfactory answer, and shortly afterwards they raw
him going across the field to Wolverhampton. He has not
since been heard of. There can be no doubt he was very
much injured, as it was some time after the train passed
before he sufficiently recovered to be able to walk.--
