Without going further in this letter into the efe,t

Berlin capital is building up many manufacturing

diyerge from the city, and that the splendid results
of the steady uniform protection OF Prussian IN
dustry for half a century are to be seen most
clt ary in other parts of the kingdom. THIS topic
must net be brought up st the tail of letter.

The comparison of the increase Of Berlin Tor
the last three years, with that Of mfoy years pre-
cedipg however, shows slight mistake upon the
part of the present ministry IN forcing upon the
cit, government the necessity OF some ne" regu-
lations mentioned above. The revival OF tue old
guild laws 20 such an extent az they are no" IN
force here il raid to be- owing in great measure
to the fancy of the King for all that belongs 10 the
middle ages though, as have said, this sugared
the pill OF reaction to the paates OF the masters
OF the various trades. some OF the smaller veAi-
tiOns of which spoke in my last letter have oeen
removed from the path OF people coming 70 the
city seeking service or places as Journeymen, save
in the cases OF young men Ju.t out OF theiE sp'
prenticeship. In case OF girls they BRING certlh'
cate from their parents and another from Tue
police of their native town or village, and the re-
iieious questions are thus disposed Of But the
difficulty of obtaining a settlement or permission
to exercise trade has been increased by en'arglng
the property qualification. All persons IN search
OF employ meDt have fourteen days allowed them TO
seek. and if they do not fnd-for the text on this
point does lot always hold goOd-they must within
twenty -four hours leave the city.
Another new law reduces the number of such as
have property and move hither 10 live upon its
proceeds, as il imposes heavy tax upon their
dwellings in case they purchase, and draws from
them percentage upon their incomes

The small Offices in the little towns and villages
Of the peasants are all filled by appointment OF the
Government, and it is rare thug the ap 9ontees
are natives Of the place in which they hold their
Offices The result Of this system is ~ bring upon
the bands Of the Govern ment every year greater
or less number OF superannHated officials or toeir
widows, who receive a pension in proportion 10
their previous salaries Most OF these people as
soon as they are relieved of the necessity OF resid
ing among the peasants remove to some city, small
or large as their means will allow Those who
have property in addition to their pensions seek
some larger town, where they may enjoy the
opera, theater, music and 80 on, or can have the
advantage higherclass schools for such of their
children as are still yOung. With this class

ADDED to an increase of twenty-five or thirty in
taxes is sufficient 70 decide their choice between
Berlin, Dresden, Hanover, Breslau or Cologne.
Hence the effect of the new income tax upon the
Growth of this CITY.
