GERMANY.

A letter from Frankfurt of the 22d states that a
(levitation of the American, English, and Frankfort
Committees of the Peace Congress went the day be-
fore to Cologne, to receive the visitors expected from
America and England. These new arrivals, to the
number of between 400 and 500, arrived the same
evening at Frankfort. About 2,000 cards of admis-
sion to the Congress bad been issued.
The Cologne Gazette contains a letter from Ber-
lin of the 20th, stating that the day before a
Cabinet Council was held there, at which the
King presided. " Prussia," the letter says,
" consents to enter into a negotiation, having
for object to effect an arrangement between the
two great powers of Germany, but she will not re-
cognise, either directly or indirectly, the restricted
federal council, nor the re-establishment of the Ger-
manic Diet. She has formally refused to accede to
theinvitation to send a minister to the restricted
council, and the other states of the union will follow
her example. Prussia will treat only with Austria
and her allies ; and it will be necessary, therefore,
before a negotiation can be entered on, that Austria
renounces the idea of putting down the union."
The Independance of Brussels has the following un-
der date of Berlin, 21st :—" It was understood yester-
day, in a general though rather vague manner, that
the Ministry, in a Cabinet Council of the 19th, had
decided on opposing a formal refusal to the invitation
of Austria with regard to the restricted Diet. Prussia
shows herself inclined to enter into the neutral com-
mission under reserve of the unitary consequences
which may result from it. The news is confirmed
to-day, and further details added. The reply to.
Austria was not perhaps definitively decided on
the day before yesterday. To-day there is to be
a fresh meeting of the Council. In addition to
the reserve I have above mentioned, Prussia appears
to demand that Austria should explain herself
on the composition of the neutral commission. The
dispatch of Prince Schwarzenberg is as obscure on
this point as on many others. In the affair of the
Baden troops the Council are also agreed. That was
not difficult, Austria having accepted the propositions
of Prussia on that subject. Oldenbourg and Cobourg
wee each talked of as the arbitrator of Prussia in the
affair, but the former is considered to be the most
likely. Public attention has been much occupied
during the last few days with an incident which
has occurred. A private correspondence from
Rendsburg, in the German Reform, represents
things in the Duchies in such a gloomy and discou-
raging manner that an outcry was raised by all the
press. The writer of the letter was discovered at
Rendsburg, and proceedings immediately commenced
against him. It was found that this correspondent,
whose name is Isidor Helier, wrote at the s line time
for the German Reform, the organ of the Cabinet of
Berlin, the Free Press of the North, an ultra-demo-
cratic journal, and the Lloyd, the Ministerial journal
of Vienna. A correspondence by the same person to
j ournals of different political opinions is not an un-
usual thing in Germany, where people calling them-
selves political writers are not always overburdened
with amour propre. In this case, however, a disre-
gard to 'acts and principles was carried rather too far.
Count de Nesselrode has arrived at Stutgard. He
is to proceed from Tessingen to Vienna.
A letter from Cassel of the 19th states that M. de
Shacten had just been charged by the Elector of
Hesse-Cassel to form a new Ministry.

THE CONGRESS AT WIESBADEN.
The Stcle gives the following letter from Wies-
baden of the 20th, giving an account of the proceed-
ings of the Count de Chambord at that place :
" Until noon no visitor is admitted. If any French-
man presents himself before that hour, the answer is that
his Majesty is engaged. About one o'clock the doors
are opened for presentations, which are almost exclu-
sively made by M. de Levis. The Prince approaches
his visitor and interrogates him as to the political feeling
of the department to which he belongs, and there is not
one who does not eagerly declare that all the population
of his department is Legitimatitt. This is the kind
of information gives to the Count de Chambord.
There are, however, some exceptions to this rule.
On Thursday last an old officer of the ex-Royal
Guard, when interrogated on the subject, raising his
voice, replied, Monseigneur,l arrived here this morning,
and I shall set off again in ten minutes. I came here on
purpose to warn you that you are deceived. I belong
to the department of the Oise. I have talked with the
great majority cf the farmers, and I am sorry to confess
to you that they are all against you.' These words
caused a great emotion in the crowd of persons presents
the Count de Chambord looked astonished, but he took
the hand of the officer and shook it warmly. On the
following day M. de Is Rochejaquelin, the rudest cham-
pion of an appeal to the people, who had come to dispute
the lofty-nee of M. Berryer, suddenly lett Wit aAden,
and left the field to his rival. This precipitate depar-
ture of M. de la Rochejaqueliu has produced a deep
sensation in the ranks of the little French colony. Many
persona are much discontented, but not daring to express
their opinions to the Prince, they sneer at those around
him. They accuse the old MM. de Levis, de Patoret,
end some others of monopolising the Count de Chambord,
of confiscating him for their own benefit, and of depriv-
ing him of all liberty of thought and action. Will you
believe it,' said a young Legiematist to me on this subject,
' that his Royal Highness cannot even go and take a bath
without M. de Levis taking a seat in the room with him?'
tinder any circumstances, the cold reception given to M.
de la Rochejaqualin proves that the fraction of young
legitimatism is disavowed as well as its ordinary organs the
Gazette de France and the Opinion Publigue. The Count
de Chambord did not say a single word to M. de la
Rochejaquelin on the subject of his last pamphlet, inti
tuled L'Appel au Peuple, and the latter, astonished at
this premeditated silence, took the liberty of asking the
Prince what he thought of it. ' There are good things
here and there in it,' was the reply. By that you mean,
Monsigneur, that there are bad things in it,' observed M.
de Larochejaquelin. ' Mon Dieu! I dared not avow it
to you, but I think so,' remarked the Prince. Allow
me, Monsigneur,' replied the author of the pamphlet, to
view it in a different light from your Royal Highness.'
' Yon are at liberty to do so, Monsieur le Marquis,' drily
replied the Count de Chambord, but France must really
be a republic when a Larochejaquelin allows himself to
differ in opinion from a Bourbon.' Such was the dismis-
sal given to M. de Larochejaquelin. Who after this
will dare deny the salutary influence of pilgrimages?
After the presentations come the private audiences ;
these are readily granted "; but here again the inevitable
Duke de Levis will be found to listen to all that is said,
and take note of every word. M. de Levis plays in the
monarchical comedy of the Hotel Durgenger the part of
Banquo's ghost. A visitor arrives with the hope of
speaking privately to the Count de Chambord, and ex-
pressing his opinions confidentially, when just as he
begins to open his mouth the phantom of old etiqaette
appears and freezes the words on his lips. At times
it is said the Prince appears much annoyed at this ob.
stinate determination not to let him he for a moment
alone with a stranger, but he dares not hazard an obser-
vation, and submits in silence to the yoke of this
mayor of the palace of royalty without a kingdom.
The audiences generally continue until the dinner hour.
There are covers every day laid for from twenty-five to
thirty. The guests are carefully blended. The dresses
of workmen who have come on a pilgrimage temper
what the luxury of the blue ribbons spread over white
waistcoats would make appear too aristocratic for a
Court in partibus, which endeavours to make itself
popular. Last evening there was much talk of a female
Vendean peasant having been admitted to the royal table,
and to whom the Prince had even condescended to offer
his arm. I saw this woman at the theatre, and asked her
what she thought of the Prince? Ah, Monsieur,' said
she with delight, he is a saint that King; look at the
present he male me;' drawing from within her dress some-
thing which had been suspended to her neck, and which
proved to be a locket with a lock of hair of the Count de
Chambord. She then replaced the locket in her bosom
after kissing it several times with the greatest devotion.
Poor woman, she doubtless thinks that she is one of the
puppets which will be put in motion in this Legitimatist
representation. In the evening, when the Count de
Chambord does not attend the theatre or a concert, all
those who have been presented have a right to come and
pay their ruspects to him. The Prince, always followed
by M. de Levis or by M. de Pastoret, passes among the
groups, and speaks to every one. Sometimes he does not
disdain to seat himself at the pianoforte, or to sing.
It is stated that he has a very fine baritone voice.
He lately commenced singing a romance, Pauvre exile
sur la terre it7angere,' but at the second verse he was so
affected that he could not proceed. This sentimental
scene caused a great sensation, and it appeared that on
that evening the enthusiasm was so great that the vene-
rable and dreaded presence of M. de Levis could not
prevent the assembly from crying loudly Vive le Roil'
What a singular fieesre the H in. M. Berryer must cut in
the midst of these puerile demonstrations."

ITALY.
The Italian journals state that neither the amnesty,
nor an extensive commutation of sentences on poli-
tical prisoners, which had boen expected in the
Lombardo-Venetian provinces on the occasion of the
birthday of the Emperor of Austria, had taken place.
The Risorgimento of Turin, of the 20th, states that
the parish priest of Bonneville, when about to cele-
brate a funeral service for M. de Santa Rosa, an-
nounced that he did so only because the Minister
when on his death-bed solemnly retracted what he
had done against the Church. The announcement
caused such dissatisfaction that the National Guard
and the Municipal Council declined to attend the
service.

Letters from Leghorn and Sienna of the IGth state
that, in order to prevent any disturbance, extraordi-
nary precautions had been taken by the authorities,
who had ordered about 100 individuals of the former
place to present themselves three times a day to the
police.

The Osservatore Romano of the 14th, a semi-official
organ of the Papal Government, records the arrest of
the Archbishop of Turin and the removal of the Ser-
vites, without any comment.

Brigadier Hearsey, C. 8., has received from Sir
Richard Jenkins a cadetship for his son. Many years hare

literated Sir Richard's recollection of tha gallantry of Lient.
