General Wrsnee having been appoin ted to the COM
mand of the Prussian forces at Berlin, has issued
mstske sort of proclamation that he intends to pre-
serve order in Prussia and the consequence has been
that the whole strength Of the revolutionary party is
arrayed against him, During the week We have bsen
deuged with rumors Of the actual rupture of the King
OF Prussia with his parliament, and have been in
daily expectation Of some frightfu conflict between
the people and the military, Involving the very exist
ence of the monarchy. Gen Won Pfusl has formed q
new ministry, supported by General Wraugel but
of the parliament striving to gain the upper hand,

Affairs In Italy.
The news from Italy is unmportant. All parties
seem disposed to accept the mediation of England and
France but the cabinet OF Austria properly states thai
the of Charles Albert cannot give him any claim
upon Lombardy that Austria possesses double right;
that which is fou nded upon the treaty of Vienns and
that which springs from the conquests of Rsdetzky
Austria adds that France and England alone,
without the concurrence of the other powers of
Europe, cannot decide upon the political system Of
Europe and therefore she proposes general congress
of ali the powers in Europe for the settlement Of all
the questions respecting Italy 1t is even suggested
that the proposed congress should be held at Inns
pruck II is difficult to impeach the correctness Of
these decl1 and they potent to all the
world that France, in her present state of ex-
element quietly admits their validity by not ventur

Our Paris letter mentions, on the authority of a
muncatien from a highly Informed quarter that the
Austrian and Sandman governments. not having
been able agree to the term for which the srms

should be nded from eight days to eight days
til Austria shall have agreed with the powers
the basis upon which definite treaty of peace may be
concluded.
Our Paris letter also states, the authority
that the King of Naples has accepted the mediation of
Great Britain and France on the press condition
that his right to reestablish his dominion in Sicily
shall not be contested King Ferdinand has further
commanded General Fiangeri not to suspend hostili
ties until the British and French cabinets shall have
formally admitted the Kings right to posses
sion Of Sicily "a the basis of the mediation. The
French government has already indirectly admitted
the demand of the King of Naples by announcing in
the Monem Of Wednesday that 1t had sent orders to
its diplomatic SCENTS at Naples and at Palermo well
