FRANKFORT, (Ger.) April 6.
The important event we have so anxiously expected, has been brought by a Courier from Berlin; and Field-Marshal Mollendorff has received orders not to divide for the present, the Prussian army in the environs of Mentz; but to maintain his position until his Majesty shall transmit to him his final determination.
This change in the disposition of the Prussian cabinet has been produced by the concession of the diet of the Empire, and the Imperial Court; and by the negotiations and splendid offers of a particular member of the Coalition.
An interview will speedily take place at Bonn, between the Emperor, and the King of Prussia.
The French armies of the Rhine and Moselle have been considerably weakened lately, on account of the large detachments that have been sent to the army of the North.
