" We knelt' the gartter part of these modern re-
publicans; tisey'hatl.no experience either of men or
things. Books hail tensed their beads, for they were
bookish without either the means or the time to apply
their reading ; and truths the most useful to society,
become pernicious when ill-timed and promulgated
without discernment.

culate here as to the acquisitions which Prussia will

• There is a great deal of talk about the Constitu-
• tion about to be given to Germany. Austria, it is
,said, th'mands the restoration of the Imperal Throne;
the creation of a grand Court. of Justice, co-extensive
in its jurisdiction with all Germany; and the re-esta-
blishment of a Diet for all the Federative States of
Germany. The Confederate Princes assent to the
re-establishment of a Diet, but with fewer• pre-
rogatives than formerly ; they assent also to the in-
stitution of a Supreme Court of Justice ; but, upon
the whole, they would prefer.* confederation similar
to that of gwitterland, to any. Monarchical form of
Constitution.
ThreGerman Journals repeat the invectives of the
English • Newspapers against the King of Naples,
Joachim ,N:opoleon : he is reproached for having en-
- terra the European league only from policy ; for
havieg, long remained immoveable with his army;
;Or having reduced the Austrian corps ender his
ordeis to the same state of inaction .; and, in short,
.for having displayed a little activity, only after the
