GERMAN Y.

A telegraphic dispatch from Berlin, dated the let
March, announces that a prolongation of the armistice
between Prussia and Denmark had been decided
upon. No details are given.
Another telegraphic dispatch, dated Berlin, the Ist
lust., says :—" We have just learned from a semi-
official source, that the Prussian Government shows
itself more accommodating in the Swiss questisn, the
difficulties of which would be easily settled if Russian
diplomacy were not labouring in an entirely opposite
spirit, by exciting Austria to persist in her exorbitant
demand for the expulsion of all political refugees, and
for bring back Switzerland to the terms of the com-
pact of 1815. As for the question of Neufchatel,
Prussia is also disposed to accept a compromise which
shall protect the ancient rights of the Prussian Crown,
and to cede to the conciliating views and instances of
France and Nngland."
By decree of the King of PRUSSIA, the primary
elections for the First Chamber are to take place on
the 16th of March, and the election of Deputies on the
4th of April.
Prince Goirrscamorr, Russian Ambassador at
Stuttgardt, has been appointed Russian Minister to
the Central Commission of Frankfort.
Tne Wanderer of Vienna states that the Austrian
Government has addressed to the Federal Commis-
sion of Frankfort the plan of a uniform commercial
and maritime code for all Germany.
There is at present such a scarcity in Hungary,
that provisions have had to be sent from Austria.
The Carlsruhe Gazette states that the King of
WURTEMBURG has declared to the President of the
Chamber that, if the democratic party persists in
maintaining its present attitude, he will suspend the
Constitution ; adding, that the two great powers of
Germany had admitted that such a measure would
be justifiable in the present state of the country.
The Diet of Electoral Hesse on the 26th ult.
adopted a protest against the new Ministry. Among
the population also the new Csbinet encounters
great oppositicn. The chief of the new Ministry, M.
DE HASSENPFLEIG. in announcing his nomination,
stated that he intended to cause the elections fur the
German Parliament of Erfurt to take place at the
appointed time, and he said that that Parliament
would be able to establish a central Government for
Germany.
The Schleswig deputies having been unable to ob•
tain an audience of the KING, on account of the
accident which has confined and still confines his
MAJESTY to his apartment, had an interview with
Count BRANDENBURG, and subsequently handed to
his Excellency a memorial, addressed to the KING,
which, after praying his MAJESTY to protect their just
cause, nationality, and the immemorial rights jea-
lously watched over by their forefathers during 400
years, and after beseeching the KING to defend a
faithful German people, to whom his MAJESTY has
lent powerful support during two years (Welchem
Siez wei Jahre hindurch hatgen Schutzi gewahrten),
and not to permit Schleswig to be forcibly separated
from Holstein, and incorporated with Denmark, thus
winds up—

" In your Majesty's hands rest the negotiations for a
peace with Denmark, the conclusion of which may not
be near at hand. We therefore leave it to your Majesty,
with the prayer that your Majesty will adopt the requi-
site measures for the speedy re-establishment of a law-
ful and orderly state of things in the duchy of Schles-
wig, by the removal of the Administration (appointed by
the armistice), and in such manner as may produce the
re-establishment of the ancient union between Schleswig
and Holstein, and that a national Government, possess-
ing the confidence of the land (meaning the Provisional
Government or the Statholderate) and common to both
duchies, shall be re-established as it existed before the
armistice. It is only by this means (that is, by a com-
plete infraction of the main clauses of the armistice
which it is sought to prolong) that the inhabitants of our
severely-proved country can be tranquillized, and await
the conclusion of the peace according to Almighty dis- '
pensation."

- To this document, dated the 19th inst., and signed
by the twenty-fuur delegates, Count BRANDENBURG
returned a reply upon the 23d. In this reply the
Minister expresses the DING'S regret at being pre-
vented receiving the deputies, renews the assurances
given verbally (by the Minister) of his MAJESTY'S
lively interest, and that of his Government, in the
affairs of the duchies ; adds thereto hopes that means
will be found to unravel this lamentable complica-
tionin a manner consistent with the rights of all
parties ; expresses an earnest desire to place the
duchies in such a position as will definitively
relieve
them from the grievances they complain of; states
that the representations made in the memorial have
augmented his MAJESTY'S sympathies, and, without
alluding to the immediate request above cited, con-
cludes by earnestly requesting the deputies to advise
their countrymen to trust patiently and confidently in
the efforts of the Prussian Government, and not in-
crease complieations by disorderly conduct.
The Kolner Zeitung has a telegraphic dispatch

minstrative Council has agreed on the terms of the

terms of the message of the United Governments. .
