PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin says:—" The instructions
given, by Prussia to its plenipotentiary in the Frau -
fort Diet, M. Bismark Schwahalt-len, are in sub•
stance that Prussia thinks it necessary to submit
to the Diet a proposition in favour of the duchies,
and is ready to make one ; but, as it woul
be desirable that Austria should do the
same thing, M. Bismark is charged to
communicate with the Austrian plenipotentiary on
the subject. If, contrary to what is to be expected,
they should not come to an understanding, Prussia
will do so in terms which she has communicated to
M. Bismark. In virtue of these instructions M.
Bismark is at this moment discussing the matter
with the Austrian plenipotentiary, awl it is proba-
