A telegraphic dispatch, in the Miner Zeitung,
from Berlin, of the 4th instant, gives a list of the

Prince Radziwill, Duke of Ratibor, Count Rittberg,
Prince of Solms-Lych, General Stroths, Dr. Telle-
mann, Count Waldersee, Count Zech-Burkersrode.
Another dispatch of the same date states that M.
Delbrtick, one of his Majesty's Privy Councillors,
has been sent to Vienna for the purpose of making
some confidential proposals respecting the regula-
tions of the Austrian tariff. The points proposed
have been communicated to the members of the
Zollverein. The following are the leading points of
the Prussian offer:—

"1. Free exportation and importation of sundry arti•
cies of raw produce, bread stuffs, and half manufactures,
"2. Free transit of goods through Germany to Aus.
tria, and vice versa.
"3. Mutual assistance in the frontier service.
"4. Regulation of the navigation of rivers, and ol
river duties.

" 5. Regulation of the communications by post, rail
ways, telegraphs, and steamers t etween the two coun
tries."

Baron RADOWITZ was expected to arrive at Berlin
on the 4th inst.

The Aligemeine Zcitung of the Ist of March says :
" The German constitutional question has entered a
new phasiF. According to information which we have
received, and which we believe to be correct, a conven-
tion was signed on the 26th February between the
Ministers of Bavaria, Wurtemberg, and Saxony, with
respect to the constitutional question of Germany. Ac-
cording to all appearances, Austria encouraged this plan.
Hanover, whose adhesion was expected up to the eleventh
hour, has not joined this convention of 26th February."
The same journal of the 21 inst., gives further
particulars :
" The signing at Munich cf a new convention relative
to the German constitution, between Bavaria, Wurtem-
berg, and Saxony, is fully confirmei. The sigr atures
were affixed on the 27th, and not, as stated yesterday, on
the 26th."

The report of a prolongation of the armistice be•
tvv(en Prussia and Denmark has not been confirmed
by subsequent advices.

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, MARCH 4.—The Second Chamber,
in its sitting this day, accepted unanimously, without
putting to the vote, and without discussion, first, the
project of law concerning an augmentation of the
budget of 1849, necessary fur covering the interest of
Treasury bonds; and, secondly, the project of law
relative to an augmentation of the expenditure of the
non valeurs during the years 1848 to 1848.
Atter passing these two laws, Mr. SLOET VON
OLDHUIS called upon the Minister of the Colonies to
explain the causes of the great want of provision
which at this time prevails in several parts of Java.
A long debate ensued as to the desirableness of a
question of that kind being mooted, and at the request
of the Minister and several members, Mr. OLDHUIS
withdrew his motion.

The Committee of the Chambers, appointed to re-
port on the Government project of law on postal
affairs, has terminated its work. It appears that
several members of the Second Chamber are decidedly
opposed to the continuance of the Government mono-
poly of the Post-office in its present exclusive cha-
racter. They consider that a medium should be
adopted, permitting the transport of letters by pri-
vate speculations, provided each letter was subject to
a duty. They are also of opinion that the tariff pro-
posed by Government is too high, and that the charge
for a single letter ought to be 20 grammes.
