A Berlin letter, of the Ist, says :—" We learn
from a trustworthy source that it is not true, as
reported, that negotiations have been in progress
between the Cabinets of Berlin and Vienna relative
to reforms to be effected in the federal institutions
of Germany, nor even that any propositions of the
kind have been made. The general conviction here
is that Austria would oppose on principle every
project of modifying the federal organisation. The
Prince-Regent has given the Ist regiment of
llulans to his grand-nephew, the Hereditary Grand
Duke of Russia, on the occasion of that prince's
majority. Till now, the Grand Duke held only the
rank of captain in the regiment which belongs to
his father."

The Parma Gazette oontinues to publish a series
of letters written by M. Thomassin, envoy of Parma
at Vienna, to the Marquis Pallavicino, Minister of
Foreign Affairs of the buchess Regent. These
letters contain curious revelations of the manner
in which the French Government was spoken of in
the reactionary courts, and they abound in insult
ing language- The French bishops, in particular,
are abused for their political attitude, and are con-
temptuously designated "cowardly princes of the
Church."

A Vienna letter says :—" The imperial decree
relative to the Protestants has not caused so much
satisfaction in Hungary as the German journals
have represented. The Protestants in that country
have expressed their gratitude for what had been
done, but at the same time they clearly declare
that all their wishes have not been fully attended
to. The Protestants were above all things desirous
of the meeting of the Synod, which would make
known to the Government what they require, and
be charged to direct the execution of the ameliora-
tions granted. The decree, having suppressed the
old superintendents, has thus deprived the Protes-
tant Church of the natural organs who might regu-
late the transition from the old to the new state of
things."

The Cologne Gazette, under date of Berlin, Ist,
says :—" We are informed on good authority that
the Cabinet of Copenhagen, in reply to the notes of
Austria and Prussia, has forwarded communica-
tions to those Cabinets, declaring that the proposi-
tions of the Diet of Holstein were not of a nature
to be sanctioned by the Danish Government. In its
explanations as to the provisional position which
the last royal patent has created for the Duchies
as an integral portion of the Danish monarchy,
the Danish Cabinet persists in its system of refusing
any further adjournment."

Letters from Grand Ducal Hesse state that judi-
cial proceedings have been taken against M. Hoff-
man, member of the Second Chamber, and also
against M. Metz, advocate to the Superior Court,
for having signed the declaration of Eisenach.

The municipality of Hanau, in Electoral Hesse,
have resolved to present an address to the Elector,
similar to that recently sent from Cassel, soliciting
the re-establishment of the constitution of 1831,
and also to present a petition with the same object
to the Fulcra' I)iet.
