"''Fhis corporation (the FishmongersD has
the honor Of Numbering among its members the
man who slew Wat Tyler! Fresh from the pc.
rdsal OF Thierrys history OF the Norman con

an instruction was jusiihable, il was that OF
which Wat Tyler was tie leader, confess that
l was startled at seeing these words in your
journal OF this morning. But how was my as
tonlshment increased when found that the man
from whose mouth they proceeded was no less
a parsonage than the American minister, who is
indebted for his exalted position among ia
SIMPLY to the fact that he il The representative
ofa nation whose chief pride and boast il is
that they established their independence by a
successful insurrection. Yet, compared with
the grievances Of which that nation complained,

dressed COMMUNICATION to the Austrian gov.
eminent upon the present commercial and Gus.
tom relations Of Germany. After rerharking
that Prussia has teve- ceased to direct iLs en-.

proceeds to obSeile .hat 10 establish such "a
union on t solid basis it is necessary to advance
gradually, taking existing interests into account.
Then glancng Al the actual ,ituation he de-
cIares that Prussia will be prepared TO eater
upon negotiations Tor the conclusion of 4 treaty

completely reconstructed. the note is said to
be conceived in the most courteous and concilia
tory terms, wTtllo containing any expression TO
Imply surrender of the privileges hitheIto main
tanned in Berlin on the subject.
The FraRlfartsr gtgtes that all danger Of a
rupture between Prussia and the Southern Xlll-
vertin States may be considered at an ct d; that
Prussia il ready at once toIay down the basis OF
treaty with Austria, and give positive assn
RANGES respecting a tutUrc Commercial union.
