Discontent among the Catholic subjects of Prussia is said to

be gaining ground, not only in the Rhenish provinces, but in the Dutchy of Posen. A collision, the origin of which is not men- tioned, occurred at Trews, between two infantry regiments, on the day of the celebration of the King's birthday. A regiment of lancers took part with the weaker of the two infantry regi- ments; and several men were killed, many wounded, and three houses demolished. On the same day, the King's bust in the grand hall of the Academy at Munster was covered with mire by the students.
