FRANKFORT, August Z,

RANhrOhAt tAuSuSs
The following details respecting the
changes which are taking place in Germa.
ny, are given as autheatlc.
All the princes. intermediate counts, and
other states of the empire, who are not
named in the act of federation, and whose
possessions join, or are included within
those of the princes preserved, are wholly
to lose their territorial superiority !; that IS
to say. the right of having troops, of hav-
ing tribunals dependent on them, the Pri-
vilege of mlut, of having political agents
in one word, they are TO be deprived OF
sovereignty according to the true meaning
of the word.
Il is said that the king of Prussia, in
recognizing these changes in the consisu.
ton OF southern Germany, reserves to
himself a power of establishing a similar
league Gin the uorsh) of what was formerly
called the empire. Thus will this cons,i.
tuition, which has been so long invaded,
wholly disappear, and the decline OF which
is only SO gentle, because the measures
which are taking a, this day were preced.
ed BY the period of its fall.
The elecror Of Hesse is about TO accsde
to the confederation OF the Rhine This
prince will join the force OF the union with
upwards of 10000 men.

whose aid it 30 much requires In this
