THE GERMAN FLEET. FRANKFORT-ON-TRH-MAINE, Nov. 14. IN to-day's sitting of the Federal Diet, Prussia made a declaration against the offer of Hanover to build a certain number of gun-boats for the defence of the northern coast, and stated that to deal with the question of the German fleet independently of the Federal Diet was impracticable. Prussia also asked for a speedy decision on her proposal for the creation of a Federal fleet for the defence of the German coasts.
