The reason, which induced the police TO take these
steps, 1t Is impossible to- conceive, If it is not,
that the whole art OF printing Is regarded by it
decidedly revolutionary. The deputies were of
course obliged to leave, after having signed
solemn protest against the police.
The gayhes OF the winter season have commenced
here with the usual entertainments at Krols,
balls, concerts and theatres. Ia spite OF all revo-
lutIoDs, the pleasure loving Berliners have never
allowed any interruption 10 take place IN the long
train of amusements that follow each other here
through the year. whilst, on the contrary, politics
are frequently suspended altogether for day or
two, tor the sake of some frolic festivty; and,
the manner In which political as well as every
other business, however important, is abandoned,
the instant the time tor amusement has arrived, Is
not one OF the least CHARACTERISTIC features OF Ger
man life The Germans, though they are perhaps
tco philosophical to love excitement In the same
OF amusement, and permit nothing to interfere with
II. Besides the opera, ballet and balls farce call
Berlin bet Nacht, Berlin at nighD satyr on pub
lie lite here, Is now the rage, and has been given
for series of evenings at the Kongstadter theatre
Above all things, the Berliners like sare and espc
claly such, by which they are themselves made the
objects OF ndicule; their superiority of intellect,
they assert, giving them privilege to make merry
not only At the whole worlds, but also at their
expense. The present farce, which is copied from
the scenes OF real life, such AS II is acted here, 10
full OF illusions to political characters and persons
which may account in part tor the interest it ex-
Cues hihougn the piece Is olteh repeated, IL Is
made attractive by the constant insertion oil fresh
illusions 10 the politics OF the day.
The intelligence received here by the last steam
er from The United States has excited much
saton, and a war between the latter and France 10
declared by the German papers to be inevitable.
The opinion, however, given In the Herad OF the
18th ult, that war was not likely to ensue on a
mere question of diplomatic etiquette between the
two countries, and unless the quarrel would as
sumo more serious character, has done much to
dissipste for the present. in England and Germany
the useless fesrs, which are injurious to COM
mercial interests. II there is reason to hope that
the differences between two SEMI barbarous coun-
tires like Russia and Turkey can be settled with
out war, there is stl more think that the
two great and enlightened republics will not dis
tuIb the peace of the world for any light cause.
