Trussia.—The result of the elections throughout Prussia is said to

have increased the strength of the Liberals in the electoral col- leges, but no details have been published. The Prussian Govern- ment, it is said, threatens to break up the Zollverein, or commercial league, of North Germany. The league expires in 1863, and the Prussian Government threaten, if the httle States will not leave them a general management, to retire. As a test of the obstinacy of the dukedoms, they have proposed a general reduction of the tariff.
