war was still continued, and what measures hdu
been taken 10 put an end 10 the Danish blockade
and the embargo, and how The German com

which the minister replied that he considered me |

for the patience with which il had borne the in

he did not feel justified in speaking more fully OF
the pending negotiations.

Nj. Raveau1 has again drawn the attention oil
the Constituent Assembly of Frankfort, 10 The
question respecting the compatibility OF loeal con-
s,ituions. and Constituent Assemblies, Chat Of
Berlin being in poinD with the National Consl.
tuent Assembly at Frankfort, and with the unity
of the German people. As might be expected
on question of such magnitude, the opinions oil
the Assembly were greatly divided. While one
parly rested in its confidence that the Assembly
J of Berlin would adopt no measures that could
weaken or disractthe future Constiul oil Ger
many, another recommended declaration that
every proyiso in any local constitution OF Ger
many, which does not harmonic with the Ma.
iona Constitution should be altered. A third
party proposed that all local constitutions should
be regarded as valid only in so lar as they are in
harmony with the general constitution.
The first Of these proposals was made BY M
Won Wicke, who spoke frequently and forcibly
of the necessity of maintaining the inicpend
