PRUSSIA. \"
For time past negotiations have been pending for
commercial treaty between the United States Of America and
the Germanic Union of Customs. We learn, upon good
authority that these negotiations have been brought to
close and that treaty has been actually signed by the Prus-
sian Government and Mr. Wheaton, the American Minister
at this court.
The effect of the treaty understood be to reduce the
present duties tobacco and rice imported into Germany
from the United States and, the other hand, to afford
facilities for the introduction into the United States Of several
branches Of German manufactures for American consumption
is Of course uncertain whether this treaty, at present
entered into by Prussia only, will be ratified by the other
States of the Germanc Customs Union, and still
certain whether the treaty will be ratified by the American
Legislature but stands Mr.. Wheaton has gained
march upon all the other Governments who have attempted
| with Germany in commercial matters.
