FPrim the foregoing letter, it does not appear that
there is ally truth in the previous statement, that as-
sassins had been actually detected in the Palace; for
such a circumstance, had it occurred, would have
formed the most prominent feature in the detail, and
am have beta passed over in entire same.

By the Mail, we learn from Berlin, that the day
for the installation of the Council of State had been
finally fixed foe Sunday last, when the first sitting
was to be held with great solemnity. Thus at length
is Prussia about to enjoy the blessings of a represen-
tative Government ; and it is sincerely to be hoped
th.it both the Monarch and the People may proceed
ith ninderati-m and wisdom—with mutual good
ta;th and perfect cordiality.

The Krso has issued an Ordinance er Instruction
for the Council of State, which is said to contain the
principal features of the New Constitution. Already,
however, three are complaints, perhaps unreasonable,
because the Council of State has not been appointed
by the free choice of the people; and, on the other
hand, some of the adherents of the old system cry
out vehemently against any change whatever, con-
tending that the Prussian Monarchy ought to be un-
limited, otherwise it will went unity, and a collision
el ideas may eventually lead to the formation of " a
Mountain patty on the cool banks of the Spree !"
Souse men can never learn wisdom from any occur-
rences whatever.

At Hanover, the Meeiing of the States, which was
fixed for the 15th of April, has been adjourned to the
20th of May.

FRENCH PAPERS.

We have this morning received the Paris Papers of
Tuesday.
The agitation which the Tragedy of Germaninm
excited, seems not yet to have subsided. On Sunday
there were three more duels arising out of this un.
fortunate affair, but happily none of them were fatal.
Another took place on Mnnd'iy, in which a hull.
pay Officer of the Navy was killed. The party-spirit
which has been elicited on this occasion, is said to
have given very sensible alarm to the French Ministry,
and to hare induced a change in the line of policy
which they have hitherto pursued with so much suc-
cess. The object of the Bonapartists, it is said, was
to give such popularity to this Tragedy as would
enable them, by petitioning the Kura, to obtain the
retorn of the Author from his exile at Brussels, and
thus open the door to the return of all whom the
restoration of the Bourbons has made aliens to their
native country. No means, therefore, were spared to
accomplish this object ; great numbers of tickets were
distributed gratis ; and the clamorous approbation
of a hired audience was attempted to be held forth
as the spontaneous testimork of an impartial public.
—The imposition, however, met with the fate it de-
served ; and Ministers, besides forbidding the repeti-
tion of thLTragedy, have, by the temporary sup-
pression of wine particular Journals, such as the
Jeurnal General and Le Mtrilfflo which endeavoured 'I
to advocate the fortunes of the fallen Germanites, and
by several prosecutions which they have instituted
against authors of the Republican faction, shewst a
spirit of hostility against it, very different from any
thing they have hitherto displayed.
The Duke of Wautucrrou, contrary to all expec-
tation, remains still at Paris. It is certain that every
thing was ready for his departure to attend the re
view of the Russian troops at Maubeuge, when all of
a sudden his journey was countermanded. It has
been said that this was owing to the refusal of the
Minister of Police to suppress some publication te-
eming very grossly oa England ; but of a cause so
improbable, we shall only say, that if the Minister of
Police did so, be acted very wisely.
A story is now making great noise in Paris, of a
person of the name of Bochsa having swindled to an
immense amount by drafts on the Prince de Beans,
Duke of Wxwtrovdrr, and others, by whom heopre-
tended to be employed. This Buchsa married some
years ago the daughter of the Marquis Ducrest, (bro-
ther of the well-known Madame de Geniis.) It is
said that he has signed the names of a great many of
the foreigners of the highest rank in Paris, and of se-
veral French bankers—he has, besides, perpetrated
several frauds of a most audacious and extraordinary.

and what is more extabrdinary, found individuals suf.

positively assured, given 60,000 fr. (42.500). for

talents, and had he kept to his own profession (music)
he would probably have made a large fortune..
The explosion mentioned in a former Paper to have
been heard at Agen, on the 18th ult. and described
as so similar to one that occurred at the same place
on the sth of September, 1814, whin several air-
mows fell, appears now to have been actually attended
with the same phenomena. The papers received to.

at the same hour, about three o'clock in the after.
