LONDON,
S.ITTIRDAY EVENING, MARCH 2?, ISM

Cierrnan Papers to the I.sth and 16th inst. have
been received this morning. The Post from Con-
stantinople, of the llth of .February, had been still
detained by the floating ire on the Danube.
It was nst, according to the accounts furnished
by these Papers, the intention of the SULTAN,
in the event of war, to occupy the Principalities,
and, perhaps, for the best of all reasons—
that the Russians would not allow him. The
banks of the Danube were to be the strong-
holds of his defence; but whether he could sut)-
port himself even there, remained to be seen.

'rue King of PRUSSIA is said to be on a journey
to Vienna ; and the projected journey of Prince
MorrmtNicti to Paris and London tierives addi-
tional credit from the banks of the Danube; but it
is added that his journey is more likely to be in
quite an opposite direction—perhaps Constanti-
nople or even St. Petersburgh. The truth is
that this wily Politician has drawn the cords of
diplomacy so tight that only his own evil genius
can unloose them. But we question greatly whether
he will ever attempt a journey to this country for
political purposes while at the head of the Cabinet
of Vienna. His present mission to some other
quarters is said to he fraught with events, equally
satisfactory to general political interests ss to that
of civilization. We shall see :
FRANI:11011T, MARCH 14.
The Gazette of Dresden announces, without warrant-
ing, indeed, the truth of the statement, that his Majesty
the King of Prussia passed through that city on 41tie 9th,
without stopping, on his way to Vienna. The accounts
from Dresden of the 10th, and from Berlin of Cue 12th, do
not mention this journey.
Lord Clauwilliam, lately British Ambassador at Berlin,
has left that city, and gone to Dresden.

STUTTGARD, JIARCA 11.
Her Majesty the Quuen, after suffering for some days
with a cold, was yesterday attacked with the measles. The
fever is moderme, and the symptoms hitherto as favourable
as possible.

BUCHAREST, FEB. 27.
The post from Constantinople of Feb. 11, with large
remittances of money from the Franks in that city, who are
alarmed at the state of atTairs, is still detained at Ruds-
chuk by the ice in the Danube, and is impatiently ex•
pected. The apprehensions of the entrance of the Rus-
sians still continue, notwithstanding the finnan of the
Sultan, announcing that no Turk shall enter the Princi-
palities, as few people doubt of the firm intention of the
Sultan not to yield to the Allied Powers. The hospodars
received notice that the Sultan will by no means occupy
the Principalities in case of war, but confine himself to
defensive operations on the Danube. This notice gives rise
to various conjectures.

BERLIN, :MARCH 5.
An English Cabinet messenger passed through this city
on the 18th Feb., on his way from London to St. Peters-
burgh. It is thought that he was the bearer of important
communications to the Russian Cabinet, and that Lord
Stuart would soon follow him. Some persons affirm
that this courier was the bearer of the Protocol of a con-
ference held at London.

MOM TILE DANUBE, MARCH 9.
Various journals have lately spoken of a journey of
Prince 'Metternich to Paris and London. There appears
to be some truth in this, as persons worthy of credit attirtn
that the Prince's travelling equipage has been kept in readi•
urss for some weeks past. But they add that it is more
proit,able that his Highness's journey will he in quite an
opposite direction ; that, in a certain case, that Statesman
will be entrusted with a mission from his Sovereign, which
will he of the highest importance to Europe with reference
