formed you in previous letters, that no result as vet
had been come to, but that differences had arisen
with regard to the, project proposed by Prussia
The objections which have since been made by the
Austrian and Bavarian commissioners have almost
caused the complete suspension of the negotia-
tons; and have now to inform you that the pro-
positions of Prussia may be regarded as altogether
rejected. The principal reason assigned by all
well.intormed persons for this failure is, the re-
fusal OF the Austrian and Bavarian plenipotenta-
RES to accept the condition which the PROPOSE
tons were made-that Prussia was at once to as
sumo the provisional direction of the government
OF Germany. 1t Is now stated that the government
here, IN concert with Saxony and Hanover, is
about to issue constitution, and that the two lat
ter States are willing TO recognise the King of
Prussia as the head Of the provisional government
All that is known, however. up to the present mo-
ment, on this head, is merely that negotiations to
that effect have been commenced. But the breach
between Prussia and the southern States, under
existing circumstances may. be regarded a most
important event Negotiations with Austria and
Bavaria are, nevertheless, not yet entirely broken
OFT; and therefore hope is still entertained that
some agreement may yet be effected
The kelchsverweser, at Frankfort, has recently
been summoned by the government here TO resign
the central power into the hands of the King of
Prussia, since the position Of the former, in the
present state OF things, has become precarious
to enable him any longer 10 stem the torrent. The
unhappy selection made~sv him in the appointment
OF the Gravel ministry has deprived him of the
last power and influence he possessed. According
the Prusslan government that he should not resign
the central power, except into the hands of those
from whom he had received 1t, viz the princes OF
all the States of Germany. 1t is beevedtha he has
given this reply agreeably TO instructions from Aus
tina and Bavaria. Our latest advlces from Frank
tort state that the National Assembly has resolved
TO issue proclamation 10 the German nation. In
II, the German peoTle are eXhorted to adhere to
the cons tuition, and organize armed corps for the
purpose OF resisting those governments who had
refused to recognise the same, and now attempted
to suppress the movements which were being made
to establish il as law for the country. With regard
to the National Assembly, we learn that $50 MEM
bers were still presents, the. greater part of the
Saxon deputies having likewise declined to obey
the summons Of their government to resign. The
substitutes for all members who had left already,
were being called in, though it was not believed
that they would attend, in which case, new cleo
tons were to be made. The Assembly had passed
the resolution, that the troops of those States who
had not recognised the Lconsttution should be re-
moved out of the territory of such who had ac-
cepted it.
Commissioner Of the Danish government has
arrived here, for the purpose OF settling peace
between Denmark, Prussia and the Northern
States of Germany.
