BERLIN, JUNE 22.

The official Preussiache Zeitung of to-day in a
leading article says, among other things, as fol-

lows :

" The Franeo-Sardinian army is moving near the
frontiers of Grennauy. The Prussian Government
has repeatedly declared that it regards the security
of Germany as intrusted to its care. The Italian
conflict is assuming ever-increasing dimensions.
England and Russia are arming on the greatest
scale. The Prussian Government would be faith-
less to its duty, and to the sense of the nation, if it
should neglect to act commensurately with that
spirit by which Prussia has become great. Prussia
is free from every engagement ; she obeys only
those obligations which spring from the innermost
nature of her State interests. It will soon be seen
whether Prussia's initiative will be supported with
the necessary weight by the German States. Prus-
sia's policy stands firm, and whoever lays obstacles
in its way may consider that he is rendering ser-
vices to the enemies of the Fatherland."

A letter from Brescia, in the Sleek, relates a
fresh exploit of General Urban, as he passed through
Calcio some short time back :

" Being desirous of continuing the traditions of his pre-
decessors, ho immediately, on his arrival, summoned to his
presence the heads of the municipality. When they ar-
rived, ho ordered them in a peremptory manner to deliver
to his army, within the delay of seven minutes, 100
oxen, 100 sacks of oats, 100 casks of wine, and
12,000 swanzigs. The delegates remonstrated, say-
ing that the village was poor, and that the time
allowed was too short. The only answer made by the ge-
neral was to draw out his watch, and pointing at the hour,
to say, The delay I allow has commenced, gentlemen,
The delegates looked at each other in alarm, and after a
minute's consideraton proposed a sum of 14,000 swanzigs
in lieu of the other objects demanded. The general made
no answer until the seven minutes had elapsed, when ho
said that he would make no compromise, and arrested the
delegates as hostages. On the following day, during the
hasty retreat of the A .0-flans, the three prisonera effected
their escape and returned to Calcio. These gentlemen,
who are M. Ricci, advocate, and MM. Reselli and Benetti,
landed proprietors, have been presented to the Emperor at
the Villa Odofredi. The system of the Austrians is
everywhere the same—blowing up bridges, cutting down
trees, and burning houses. The stone bridge over the
Oglio resisted the effect of the mind which they had pre-
pared, and was merely shaken, and a few fragments
thrown into the river. A house at the extremity
of it, on the banks of the river, was pillaged and burnt.
Nothing remains but the four walls, which were loopholed.
A barricade made of trees and earth was thrown up to de-
fend the passage of the river, but abandoned."
