State OF Things in Prussia.
The recall Of the Prince of Prussia is stil the pro-
mnent topic of conversation and discussion. must
not forget however state that he has more friends
here than the inhabitants Of the Rhen ish provinces
give him credit for Not that tho citizens Of Berlin
are in favor of a reaction even on a small scale hut
that the majority Of themcertainly the majority
of the higher and middle classes-entertain the
vction that his royal highness is really disposed and
prepared to accept loyalty the state Of things,
and to cooperate in the development Of popular rights
Without exactly possessing the chivslrous' DISPOSE
posing his recall, the Prince is Of upright and
straightforward character. 1t cannot be said Of him

is ready to make officially, opportunity 10
Afforded him, would be the signal for the total

IL Is not little gratifying, moreover, to know-snd
there will be no indiscreton in making n communica-

that MS royal and amiable consort has ever brought
her gentle influence to the liberal side and certainly
one will more heartily rejoice at the " conversien
of the Prince Of Prussia than her royal high the
Princess. German ladies do not play the prominent
political part which their does in PsTsan
coteres and circles, but their influence 10 tho less
considerable or important that account. On the
whole it may be safely stated that although the recall
of the prince premature, and ut the time an act
of great imprudence great weakness the part
Of the ministry his ultimate will be satisfactory
to the vast majority of the inhabitants of this capital
including the Civic Guard. The greatest prudence,
however is still necessary for although his royal high
ness has numerous warm friends he has also very
many bitter political enemies, who seem resolved
contrary, it mnst be observed, to the spirit Of the
times-neither to forget forgive Potsdam Is on
the direct line of railway from Osend to Berlin and
