in order the better to understand the later
news which we give to-day under our tel

The Danes are now strictly enforcing the

crown by the King Of Prussia, as Emperor

which will transfer the power and imperial
dignity from the House Of Branhenburgh
(Which now governs Aus'ra) to that 0
Bavaria. The third class Kingdoms IN the
