FRANKI-ORT, AUGUST 14.

The accession of Wurtemburg to the German Con-
federation is now decided, and beyond all doubt.

We learn that Mt. Von Haenlein is recalled from
his post as Minister to the Diet. This will naturally
cause some delay in the opening of the Diet.
With respect to the quarrel in a public-house at
Mentz between some Austrian and Prussian soldiers
the most exaggerated reports had been circulated ,
such as, that cannon had been placed in the streets,
that the killed and wounded on both sides amounted
to some hundreds, Sec. The truth is, that three per-
sons were wounded, and that all is perfectly quiet at
Mentz.
BERLIN, AUGUST Is.
Oar. Envoy to the Diet has been suddenly changed.
Mr. Haenlein has received another destination, and
Count Golz, formerly Cabinet Minister, goes to
Frankfort. He is now at Toeplitz, from which place
he is expected back shortly.

Some of the daily Papers have for these two days
been occupied in reviving the report of a Royal
Divorce being in contemplation. If there be any
such intention it is probable botb parties may be pre-
sent at the discussion ; for we understand that the
Princess of WALES is expected in England at no very
remote period, instruc►ions having been given to her
hPusehold to be prepared for her reception.

We are happy to say the Pewee REGENT is ping
on extremely well towards recovery. His Royal Nigh.
nets is expected at Carlton House in a day or two.
The Duchess of CUDIDERLAND continues confined
to her apartment through indisposition. •
Tl:e Neapolitan Ambassador has contradicted the
rumour about a separation of the Crowns of Naples
and Sicily, and the intention of having the second
son of his Sicilian Majesty succeed to that of the
kingdom of Naples. The King, he says, will never
deprive his worthy and beloved son of what is due
to him by the Succession Law, and by birth-right.
Monday the informations against the Brighton
Booksellers, for carrying on the 100-chances, in the
evening at their shops, came on to be heard before
the Magistrates of that town, when the informations
were quashed.
The Directors and Guardians of the Poor of
Brighton, have taken it into consideration to erect a
manufactory for the employment of the numerous
applicants for relief.
The R2port hid on the Table of the House of
Commons on the State of the Police of the Metro-
polis, has just been printed. We intend to select
such parts of the evidence as are most interesting:—
That of the veteran TitiVNEIND, of Bow-street, of
whom all our Readers have heard so much, is peal.
Natty interesting. It will be found in the last page.
The 92d, or Gordon Highlanders, commanded by
the Earl of Hoeg:num, are now on their march from
Hull, for Edinburgh, where they are expected on the
'Bth of September.
Sunday se'nnight, Dr. ALEXANDeR Parensozr, lately
appointed Coadjutor Roman Catholic Bishop of the
Lower District of Scotland, was consecrated in his
own chapel at Paisley, by the Right Rev. Dr.
ALEXANDER CAMERON, from Edinburgh, presiding
Bishop of the district, assisted by the Right ReV.
Dr. ENEAS Cuisnot.sr, the Catholic Bishop of the
Highlands, and attended by several clergymen of
both districts ; there was also present. as Patron of
the Bishop Elect, Don Francisco Antonio Bringas,
a Spanish gentleman, and Captain in the royal
armies of Spain, who had accompanied Drs. Came-
ron and Paterson from Spain, and whose father had
been principally instrumental in saving much British
propeety there during the late revolutions. The con.
secration took place before a numerous congregation
of Catholics and Protestants, according to all the
rites usually observed en such occasions in the
Church of Rome.

Private accounts from Spain give a melancholy
picture of the state of society. A. sullen gloom per-
vades all ranks ; and money has disappeared almost
entirely, none daring to thew it but the Monks and
Friars.

The whole conversation in Madrid is absorbed by
the late downfall of two of King FERDINAND'S gums
dam counsellors and advisers. Our Rasters will
recollect that we some time ago published extracts
from the intercepted correspondence of LARDIZIDAL
to his friend AZADIA in -Cadiz. and that of the
latter to his brother in Lima. The whole of these
documents were captured in the ship Neptune on
her way to Porto Bello, and carried into Cartha-
gene a little before that place was captured by
bloart.r.o. In this correspondence a disclosure of
State secrets took place respecting the marriage of
the Imo and Brother with the Portuguese Pm.
Cssus, the degraded state of the Madrid Cabinet,
and the manner in which the operations of Govern-
ment might be turned to commercial purposes, which
has greAtly piqued Minister Csvatzos and his M.ts•
ter, and both LARDIZABAL and AVADIA have been
&nested. The latter, who acted as Commissioner
in Cadiz for the South American Expeditions, was
seized .in the night in his bed and carried away,'
without even his friends knowing where. —Most
foul surmises are circulated Spain respecting the
murder of Mr. Lisr,n, the late Messenger, which
it becomes the .duty -of Government to unravel.—
That be was killed by no common ruffian for the pur-
poses of plunder, is evident from his papers and let-
ters which be had about him being all that WdS stolen.
.11 is generally believed that his papers etre all his
&swains aimed at.
