GERMANY.

The Frankfort journals publish the following ex-
tracts of the minutes of the sitting of the Diet
" In the sitting of the Diet of the 29th ult. the
president made known officially to the assembly
that the representatives of the States of Lauen-
bourg had appealed to the Diet relative to the pro-
tection due to their constitutional rights and con-
formably to the treaties with that duchy. The
representatives of Austria and Prussia took this
communication as their starting point, and entered
into a detailed explanation of the negotiations
which had been carried on with the Danish govern-
meat relative to the Duchies of Holstein and Lauen-
bourg, and the unfavourable results of those nego-
tiations. They added that their governments did
not think it right to leave the question in such
an undecided state, and that consequently they
placed it in the hands of the Confederation, ill
order that it might be examined and a decision
cosine to on the subject. It was decided that the
matter should be referred to a special committee,
to be appointed at the next sitting. The repre-
sentative of Han Over, on the same occasion, also
made a .declaration (already known from other
sources) relatiToo the duchies„ to which was at-
tached the following proposition :—To cause an
examination to be made by a committee of the
obligations imposed on the Danish government by
.federal rights and the negotiations. of 1851-52, and
their accomplishment or non-accoinplishment. In
the event of its being found thatthey have not been
accomplished, that the Danish government shall be
requested by the Germanic Diet to do so as regards
the duchies of Holstein and Lauenbourg within a
certain delay."

SPAIN.
The Madrid journals of the 20i h ultimo have ar-
rived. The Espana contains the following singu-
larly worded paragraph :-4, The Queen gave yes-
terday afternoon a new proof of her piety and
devotion. Having met the Divine Majesty in the
Calle de Alocha, the magnanimous Isabella ceded
immediately her carriage to the King of Kings,
and, in spite of her delicate situation, accompanied
Him to the house, No. 133,
of the said street,
after which she followed Him on his return to the
parish church. But before reaching- the palace,
her Majesty again encountered tse Holy Commu-
nion, wnich, leaving the church of Santa Cruz, was
proceeding towards the Plazuela del Angel, and
our beloved Sovereign again showed her Christian
piety accompanying it also. The persons who wit-
nessed these magnanimous acts of devotion broke
out into unanimous acclamations, and repeated
them with veritable enthusiasm." The political
offenders at Malaga whom the late Cabinet ordered
to be exiled to the 'Canaries, were not to be sent off,
but to be brought to trial. The Ministers haa
charged their colleague, the Minister of the Interior,
to examine into the question of the press.
