BERIrs, February 25. The nego-
tiations by the Hon. George, Ban
croft on the subject of the; naturali-
gation of Germai,s in the United
States, have been brought to sue
cessful issue. The North German
Bund agrees to fully recognize and
accord all the rights of. exemption
from military duty, ETC., Of native
born Americans to Germans natural
lied according to law as citizens after
they have spent FIVE years in the
United States. a treaty to this
effect was signed by Mr.. Bancroft on
the 22d.
The Independence Beige states that
the military preparations now going
on in France are creating great un-
easiness, and lead to the conviction
that they are designed to meet other
purposes than natural defence.

WASHINGTON, February 26.-Gen.
Thomas appeared with his counsel
this morning. Judge Carter issued
O subpoena for Stanton, with his
commission and other documents.
Pending its service, the court pro-
ceeded to other business. Stanton's
lawyers asked postponement, but
Thomas lawyers objected, as his bail
surrenders him as prisoner. Habeas
corpus was demanded, but Judge
Garter told Thomas to 20 hence.
This closes the matter, unless the
Grand Jury takes cognizance. It is
expected now that quo ,ra,ranto
against Stanton will be applied for.
8 P. M.-The Impeachment Com
mittee of the House examined Gen.
Emery. Serious differences are re-
ported in the Committee. The idea
that the radicals troubles are thick

facts transpired. Stanton answered

A PRINCE IN AUSTRALIA. Prince
Alfred, Victoria's second son, is at
present making grand tour around
the world, and, appearing recently in
Australia, was overwhelmed with de-
monstrations of colonial loyalty.
The people, it is said, were almost
frantic. After remaining in Mel
bourne short time, the Prince went
"up the country" whereupon, ac-
cording to report, the whole country
"got drunk" and kept it up until
long after the Prince left. At Mel
bourne the Prince was measured for
n pair of boots. The entire adult
male population then tried to play
the part of Cinderella's sisters, and
to squeeze their feet into boots made
after the same measure. The Mayor
of Ballarat, it is recorded, succeeded
in effecting fit, and has since reaped
in corns what he sowed in suffering.
