HANOVER.
The following is the declaration made in the
the Prussian Plenipotentiary, on the subject of the
proposition of Hanover At the sitting at which
the proposition of the Hanoverian Government
Vas presented, the Prussian Plenipotentiary pro-
tested, in the name of his Government, and he can
Otly now renew that protest. Nevertheless, his
Government cannot have any objection to the
Proposition of Hanover being submitted to the
examination of the military commission. Prussia,
after having at different times given to her Ger-
ea_ an co-federates the positive assurance that she
fwould, in case of need, interfere with all her
s!ce, and even beyond the limit of her duties,
ma or
and defend the independence of Ger-
_ft.n3r, hopes that the other German Federal Powers
leave to her the initiative of the military
hat the unity, which is indispensable to ensure
whe!ess, can be counted on: Any proposition
li h would anticipate events and exceed the
Itlits of .the right of the Confederation cannot
iii eeeive the approbation of the Prussian Govern-
Which will oppose it with regret, but at the
time with the greatest firmness."
