FROM THE TRIBUNE's WAR COKRESPONDENr.
TIE special correspondent Ofthe New York
Tribune writes from Berlin, Sunday: That
the Pr,lssians head quarters are still ut
Berlin. Prince Frederick Charles is COM
handing the army Of the Rhine. 1t Is con-
sidered certain that Napoleon was counting
on the dislOyalty Of South Germany, which
he expected would rise under color Of sud-
den movement across the Rhine before Prus-
STA had concentrated a considerable force,
and j. disappointed by the unanimity Of
GERMANY. lie does not dare to risk move
men; northward with a South German army
on his flank, and has certainly delayed and
perhaps altered the original plan Of his cam
Iaign. II j. believed that ND advance can
be made at any point without risking gen
eral engagement. Prussia although not ready
to attack she is ready everywhere for defence.

general headquarters, including the King
and General MOltke, shows confidence that
the Pr,ssian Generals cannot I've suddenly

The special correspondent Of the Tribune,
at St. Petersburg, writes that the Russians
are concentrating troops on the frontier Of
Gallatia. The sale Of army horses has
been discontinued, and leave Of absences are
Cancelled. The troops camped at Krasenel
are held ready to march. The government
openly favoss Prussia-the Liberal press sa's-
tains France. The Government Messenger,
the official paper, first attacked Prussia 30
sharply that the Prlssians Charge d. affair
complained. The Russian government at
tempted to interfere by pers,iading Prns-
sia's King to make to England the declara-
ton demanded by France, hut failed.
Caused intese excitement here, and the univer-
sal feeling is that the relative speed Of the
yachts il vet undecided. Immense sums
Of money changed hands ON the result. The
betting was participated in by all classes.
