GERMANY.

We receive {rom the Berlin correspondent of the Times the confirmation of all that has been reported of the disunion of Germany, arising from the dissensions which exist between Austria and Prussia. The correspondent in question says that the untnend!y attrtude which now subsists between the two leading powers has led the smaller German States to distrust both, and they are now doing their utmost to make peace wiili France, the curnmon enemy, which so lately they were eager to attack.

PRUSSIA.

The aews of the dissolution of the French army of obserra~ tion has produced a very favourable eff ct at Berlina. Prussia will at once countermand the concentration of troops on the Rhine.

Prussia is about to send some vessels of war to Japan toopen commercial communications wiih that country. ‘The frigate Thetis and the corveite Arcena live been selected for the pur- pose. Tey will leave towards the end of the month, and re- main absent for-three years. A councillor of the Prussian Legation will «ccompany the expedition, to carry eu negocta- trons with the Japanese Government.

Pians For Pusxic Buitorves.—We understand about 16 architects have aspired to the honor of drawing the designs for the Public Buildings, about to be erected in this city. The plans prepared by most gentlemen are now lying in the Council Chamber of Toronto, awaiting the return of some members of the Executive who have been down at the sea side seeking health and recreation during this hot weather. Early next week the Governinent will make choice of the most beautiful designs for Parliament Buildings, Public Offices, and Vice Regal Residence. As over twenty different plans have been prepared, there will be no difficulty in selecting designs worthy of this rising Province. Immediately after the selection, ad- vertisements will appear calling for tenders for the buildings, and by the first of October we hope to see the contractor at work.— Bytown Gazette.

Tae Grain Harvesr.—~The New York Courier commences a leader with the following :

_ The West is gorged with food, yet pines for the means of life. She has just reaped a most magnificent harvest, and yet is withoué a spare dollar in her pocket. There is no end to her produce ; nor any end, apparently, to her destitution. She is in want of the very first of all civilized necessities, We don’t mean bread, for the savage also needs that, but.a market. She knows not where to send her wheat. Europe has enough of her own. The Middla states have as much as they care for. Cold New England, which cannot grow it, will require some, and so will the hot South ; but nothing like the quantity the West would be glad to dispose of. There is no demand corresponding to the Supply.
