Near the close of Mr.. Folks administration, the
Central German government, through Baron Roenne,

ty should not be violated the ship limited States

The war of Denmark and Germany is mock war; in
which the former power against the laws of succession

no other object than to form once more integral

The King Of Prussia has been openly accused Of not

come to no o'her conclusion than that the present
