GERMANY.

AT the conference at Wuzburg ofthe representatives
of the minor German States the principal questions to
be considered are: The settlement of the right OF DOM
ice the establishment of Federal Courts of Justice;
the national demonstration in favor of unity reform OF
the Federal laws relating TO the army the Hesse cleo
toral and HOlstein questions; and regulations for
uniform system of weights and measures for all Ger
many.
The second chamber Of Tesse-Cassel, by vote Of
80 agasnst 3, resolved upon addressing memorial TO
the Federal Diet for the reestablishment Of the Con-
stituton of 1881.
In the Federal Die at Frankfort the Penipotentiary
of Hesse aceeded to the proposals Of the Committee
and granted concessions In reference 10 the
wishes of the Chambers, but preserved in maintaining
the Constitution of 1882

population has become decinated--the population
Of Lombardy amounting frst, to one-tenth Of the
aggregate population Of the Empire-and, after the
havoc made by the last war upon the very sources
Of production, any considerable rise in the rate Of
taxation is likely to produce a rise in the gross
product Of taxation. In the second instance, any
new repariion Of taxes may in the course of times
augment the State income; but for some years IFS
influence on the condition Of the Exchequer may
safely be put at zero. The interest Of the pub
lie debt, now increased to 10, 900, coo of FORMS
belongs, by ITS very nature, to the out
eOings independent Of any economy, as
long as the principal itself Of the debt cannot be
reduced. reduction in the rate of interest would
be an eccentric idea with the present state of Aus
TRAN public credit. What field Of operation, then,
remains open to the ministerial commission who, up
to the 3lst October, 1860 il to get rid Of the de-
felt We have already stated that, save the army,
navy, and police all the other departments are
rather niggardly provided for. Consequently we
make a great concession in supposing that the de-
felt of fifty millions may be got rid of by reduc
ton Of eqEol percentage in all the departments OF
public expenditure. BY such process we should
arrive at the following results:

One glance at those suggestions reductions
proves them to belong to that class of financial OPP
eratsns which Ceryantes, in one of his novels, per-
sonified so we'll by the schemer who proposed to
get rid of the Spanish public debt by inducing all
Spaniards, male and female, to abstain for one
month only from eating and drinking or spending in
any way. Just think of Austria reducing under
present circumstances, by twenty per cent the
costs on her army, navy, police, and foreign de-
partment As to the Ministries of Justice and
Education, it is a surplus OF ways and means, not
a reduction that they want. Considered by itself,
the Austrian deficit appears by no means
extraordinary. 1t becomes only so under the
peculiar circumstances of State that, in its anx-
iety TO keep down the middle classes, has fallen
prey to the Jews. However that may be, the con-
fiscation of the Austrian Church estates would be
the only means of banishing the Austrian deficit.
Yet such measure is sure to sound the death knell
of the Hapsburg dynasty.
