dor to-day at an audience at the Tuil-
cries, and the minister delivered to His
Majesty the reply of the King of Prussia
to the French note demanding an exten.
sion of the frontier. of the Empire to the
Rhine. The State paper declares that
the demand is inadmissable and that
Prussia will not accede to it. 80.
Napoleon replied that he had made
the demand in order to satisfy public
opinien in France on the subject. He
deemed it a just demand, but at the

BERLIN, August 15.-The danger to
