GERMAN Y.

The German papers have advices from Hanau and
Frankfort of the 6th inst. Their news throws 'some
light on the negotiations which have taken place be-
tweeen the Bavarian and Prussian Commander. It
appears that General von der Griben addressed a
letter to the Prince Thurn and Taxis, protesting that
the Prussian invasion of Hesse was by no means under-
taken in a hostile spirit, and that Prussia merely
sought to protect bar communications with
the Rhenish provinces. For this purpole it appeared
desirable that Prussian troops should occupy part at
least of the Electorate, and that be (General Groben)
wished to come to an understanding on that point
with the Commander of the Federal troops. He pro-
posed that the Federal troops should confine themselves
to the provinces of Hanau and Fluda, while the
Pruisida army occupied the other parts of the Elec-
torate.

The Prince Thurn and Taxis has declined enter-
taining this proposition. He sees no reason why he
should arrange with the Prussian general about the
occupation of the Electorate, since he himself had
been instructed to occupy the whole of that country.
He would not oppose the .Prussians in their march on
the Etappe roads, but he would at once proceed to
throw down all obstacles which would stand in the
way of the execution of his orders, and that for that
purpose he had a force of 45,000 troops at his disposal.
We learn from Hanau, of the 6th inst., that the
Federal troops are still proceeding in the direction of
Fulda, and that their head-quarters have been ad-
vanced from Schliichern to Fiiethern. There are
no troops on the Gelnhausen road, and but a small
force is quartered on Gelahausen. All the Federal
divisions are concentrated in front of the Prussian
army at Fulda.
Letters from Cassel, of the 6th inst., in the Kolner
Zeitung, state that early on that morning the Prus-
sian garrison of Cassel beat to quarters, and that two
battalions were sent to Fulda.

Frankfort letters of the same date state that the
Federal troops are advancing upon Fulda, and that
the Prussian divisions retreat before them. No con-
flict had us yet taken place, but the resolution of the
Prussian Cabinet of the same date is likely to change
the tactics of General Groben, who has been in-
structed from Berlin to conduct his manoeuvres
henceforward only with a view to military conside-
rations.

From Vienna we learn, of the 2d inst., that the
Federal army for the pacification of Germany is
to consist of 120,000 •Austrian, 60,000 Bavarian,
and 20,000 Wurtemberg troops. This force is
to be divided into three corps, viz., the Bohemian
corps, with its head-quarters at Eger, close to the
frontier of Franconia and Saxony; the Franconian
corps, with its head-quarters at Aschaffenburg ;
and the Suabian corps, with its head-quarters
at Bregenz. The Bohemian corps consist of the
flower of the Austrian army, under the command of
the Archduke Albrecht. The Franconian corps is to
be formed chiefly of Bavarian troops, with an addition
of 10,000 Austrians. This corps /remains under the
command of Prince Thurn and Taxis. The Suabian
corps consists of the /Austrian troops in the Tyrol
and Vorarlberg, and a !branch of its head. quarters
will be at Ulm. As an immediate consequence of
the Warsaw Conference, it bi stated that a Russian
agent is to be accredited at Frankfort.

" Unfortunately a collision took place the day before
yesterday (evening) between Prussian and Austrian sol-
diers in tho brewery at Korb; and yesterday evening
another, at the brewery at the Green Wood and in the
Grabergasse, in which blood was shed."

" FULDA, Nov. 4.
" Quarter past 1, P.N.—Just now the signal horns
end orums sound the alarm through the streets. The
llivarians and Prussians were separated this morning
by only the distance of 2.000 feet. The Prussians intend
to await the attack. Ilaltpsst 2 P.M.—Witha loud hurrah
two squadrons of Prussian Cuirassiers galloped out of the
Gerathor towards the Peteraberg, in order to repel the
attack which might have come from the Rhon. The
artillery has been dispatched to reinforce the posts on
the Frankfort road. Nothing has as yet been heard
about collision or fighting.

" Half-past Four.--The troops are still drawn out in
battle array, the baggage sent to the rear in the direc-
tion of Hiinfeld. It is growing dark, but nothing as yet
has been seen of any advance upon the part of the
Bavarians. All the roads that lead to the town are
