FRANKFORT.  The proceedings in the German Parliament at Frankfort, in the sitting of the 14th, were most interesting. The intelligence of the treasonable murder of ROBERT BLUM, the Member for Leipzic, by the authorities of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, lud been re ceived that morning, and various interpellations were addressed to the Minister on the subject, and a notice of motion given calling on the Parliament to adopt measures to bring his murderers to punishment. The news of the proclamation of the state of siege at Berlin was also brought under consideration, and resolutions were adopted approving of the conduct of the Assembly, and calling upon the King of PRUSSIA to dismiss his present Ministers, and to return to constitutional courses.  The Parliament assembled at twenty-five minutes to ten, and shortly afterwards  SIMON of Troves put the following question to the Ministry :—" Has the Imperial Ministry received any direct information to the effect that ROBERT BLtmt, Deputy from Leipzic, was shot in Vienna op the 9th ult., by sentence of a court-martial, and what steps does the Imperial Ministry intend to take in consequence of this ?" /Violin, the Minister of Justice, said—lie would remind the Assembly that the news of the arrest of BLust and FROEBEL reached them first through the evening papers of the Bth. If, therefore, the execution really took place on the 9th, it must be evident to all, that the Ministry's interference in his behalf, whatever character it had assumed, must have proved futile. At that moment, excited as he was by the intelligence, they certainly would not require any particular statement of the further measures intended by the Ministry. If the letter which had just brought the intelligence reported truly—(Cries of " Here it is confirmed," and BERYER was seen pressing forward with another letter, which he handed to the President.) The PRESIDENT row' an extract from this letter aloud. It confirmed the tidings of BLUM'S execution. After some less important matter, the Assembly proceeded with the order of the day, viz., the discussion of the Prussian question, when Mom, agahi craved an immediate hearing. He said the Ministry had been asked what they intended to do. Two of their body were to set out at once for Vienna, for the protection of all members that might be in Vienna, and to insist on the recognition of the law passed by the Assembly for its own protection.—(Cheers, even from the Left.) The discussion on the Prussian question was then resumed, and the following resolution, recommended by the majority of the Committee on Prussian Affairs, was adopted : " The National Assembly, agreeing with the measures taken by the Ministry of the empire, declares that it is necessary—first, to en gage the Prussian Ministry to revoke the order for transferring the National Assembly to Brandenburg, as soonasmeasures shall have been taken to guarantee the dignity and liberty of its deliberations at Berlin ; secondly, that the Crown of Prussia should surround itself as soon as possible with a Ministry possessing the confidence of the country, and fit to remove an fear on the subject of re-actionary tendencies, and the infringements of the liberty of the people,"  There were several amendments proposed stigma.. tising in still stronger language the conduct of the King of PRUSSIA, but the above was ultimately adopted. At the close of the proceedings an urgent motion was announced by Srasom of Tr6ves, viz., "In consideration that three separate letters had arrived from Vienna, detailing the fate of 1.10Vit'c,1314134 and in c-msicleration that, according!: to- the enacted on the 10th October, for the protection of the Assembly, the execution of BLUM becomes Mut' der, the National Assembly is called upon to deliberate at once upon measures that shall ensure the punishment of the murderers." Mom., the Minister of justice, immediately stated that the envoys of the Ministry had started at 2 r.m., for Vienna; that they had instructions to demand the surrender of all papers and correspondence referring to Ihust's affair; and to send these, together with a full statement of all relative particulars forthwith to  Frankfort. Till then, he thought, matters must stand as they were. The motion was ultimately referred to the Co) nrnittee on Austrian affairs.  The names of the members sent to Vienna ftre 134up,a, of Augsburg, and Posx., of Munich. A large fraction of the left and left centre had, on the evening of the 14th, resolved to send a deputation to the Imperial Minister of Justice, requesting the additional dispatch of an Austrian member on the same mission, one who is altogether of a more resolute character, and better acquainted with the affairs of Vienna.
