FOREIGN ITEMS.
 The publication of the document, en. titled the public Protoeol of the 22d sitting of the Diet of the Germanc Confederation, had naturally excited both surprise and alarm in France The intentions ofthe Emperor of Aus. tria and king of Prussia ito check the encroachRaentsofdemoeraoy 6gc," back. ed by all the parties represented in the Diet, appear at singular season; and the great muster of forces indicates that they are prepared to sustain those intentions. Whether the great militia. ry movements of the Austrian armies had for their object Germany or Frauce was subject of speculation, but the continued aspect of security shewn by inc latter Power was unfaFofabIe to the
 idea of the apprehended hostilities. letterfrom Paris, dated July 1Gtb, says
 We Lave just learnt that the hies ter for Foreign Affairs, who was abce to set out for the country, to enjoy that fepose of which he Is so much in neej, decided,an the arrival ofthe news from Germany, to remain at Paris.
 These accounts have produced, as we foresaw, great sensation anongs! the Ministry, we shall not be surprised if their importance should hasten the return of Marshal Soull.
 Another letter of the 15lh. contains the following comment on the protocoi;
 The protocol of the Diet of the Ger. manic Confederation has excited the greatest interest here. The Bespotc Courts have there taken the field so de. cidedly againstliberal principles oleV y description, and in throwing of the mask, have declared so explicitly that Constitutions are only to be tolerated 50 far as they do net in any manneriR tcrfere with the ,StaI pro raiioae geAa. tds' of their High Mightinesses, that the question must be brouglt 10 a d. rect issue and 1t must be decided aheth. CT Germany is or is not to remain in the sixteentheentury while all the rest of the world is travelling throughthe nineteenth. The Opposition Papers here are loudly calling on Governmcnt to noobikise the National Guards and prepare at least for action. What may occur to justify intervention, is q aaes ton of no small delicaoy, and whlchs yet hardly ripe for discussion, parcu larly as at present the Protocol, @llha fnesse worthy of the willy Meilernle4 continues to link each of its paragraphs 10 the letter of the same article Tn the final Act of Vienna, which is certainly binding on the German States, although they will probably insist op it's being construed according to the spirit rather than to the letter only.
 The London Courier says:-
 We are not surprised at learning from our Paris Correspondent that the Protocol of the Germanic Diet against the Press excites great indignation lh the French capital. It would be strange indeed, if il did not; but neither the fFehCh nor me people of tills cou''''1 can interfere between the absolufIsH and the would-be-indcpendents of the German states, and despotism in that part of the world must be left fora time 10 take it's course.
 It may be permitted, however, to eS- press great regret that amongst lns parties to this atfoeious compact agaIns' inc expression of thought, we find the representative of Sovereign Wuo wears the British Grown.
 It is rather curious to see William ". in England giving liberty to ,is ,ia people, and setting the example oi nO, erality and loleration, and the Ministe'' of the same Sovereign in Hanover, as sisting, in his name, and with his ;i'''''0' rity, in an attempt to prevent the .aa sa nression of free sentiments. and s'luo every thing that is liberal. 1hefe . an anomaly in this which We do not u''' lersiand.
 Ii is not easy to divine what may uo he immediate result of this infamous protocoI. h,t If it's final and lndceu
