of the somewhat precipitate withdrawal of General Wrangel from Jutland
on the 24th May. Both the Danish Government and the Frankfort Diet have rejected the teems of mediation proposed by Lord Palmerston; the Germans before, and the Danes since their knowledge of the comparative success of the Danish arms on the 5th.
PnussLL—From Berlin the news is to the 11th. The Prince of Prus- sia arrived at Charlottenberg on the 7th, and took his seat in the National Assembly next day. On a previous day, M. Camphausen had explained in detail the circumstances under which the Prince left Prussia, and those of his recall and return.
On the 19th, after the combat, the Prince learned that the public mind was highly exasperated against him; and he advisedly retired to Spandau till the 22d. False reports came to Berlin that he was preparing. to march against it at the head of troops: this further inflamed the public mind, and the Cabinet advised his going abroad. The Prince objected, unless on a written command of the King. He thereupon received the King's autograph instructions to go to London, and there communicate the nature and causes of the events which had occurred, and obtain all possible information on subjects connected with the navy. The pre- sent Ministry deemed the Prince's presence and consent essential to the perma- nent framing of the constitution and the averting of all possibility of reaction, and advised his recall on their own responsibility.
The Ministerial explanations had been well received; but the Prince's appearance in person, on the 8th, produced most uncourtly manifestations. Great part of the Assembly made no salute on his entrance; his short speech was listened to in cold silence, and on his exit he was greeted with biases and noises of execration.
The Chamber passed much time on the 8th in discussing a motion of Behrend, that the Constituent Assembly should acknowledge the revo- lution of the 18th and 19th March, and declare its actors to merit well of their country. The motion was opposed by the Ministry; who, without disavowing the consequences of the conflict, protested that existing insti- tutions had not been overturned. A multitude of amendments were pro- posed, and much violent talk passed. The Minister of Finance denied that the events of March were a revolution: they were a transaction between the Crown and the People. The debate was adjourned to next day; and it ended then, in the rejection of M. Behrend's motion, and of all the amend- ments upon it; the House resolving to resume the order of the day, by 196 to 177. During the progress of the debate, some of the representatives— Baron Arnim especially—were assaulted in the crowd as they left the Chambers. The decision is said to have been due to the votes of the provincial members; and the Berlin populace is in great excitement on account of it. A great public meeting is called to demand the resignation of Ministers; whose places are already disposed of among a programme of Opposition members.
AUSTEIA.—The dates from Vienna are to the 10th, those from Ins- pruok to the 9th instant. At Vienna, it is reported that intrigues are actually on foot to induce the Emperor's abdication of the Imperial dignity, in favour of his second brother, the Archduke Francis Charles: the latter would then resign the crown of Austria and the Lombardo-Venetian king- dom to his eldest son, under the regency of the Archdutchess, who is ambi- tious, and able enough to assume that office. A proclamation by the Emperor appears in 4he Wiese). Zeitung, stating it to be his " most anxious wish that the States-Genfral may meet in Vienna, the seat of his goverfiment, as soon as possible." He calls on the Viennese to end all feuds, ancistrive to restore order: he will bless the day when the opening of the States-Ge- neral shall give him the gratification of "once more seeing his people of Vienna, ever dear to his heart."
Lord Ponsonby has arrived at Inspruck, from Vienna; completing the removal thither of the whole Diplomatic Corps.
The Vienna news presents no incident. The students still rule the capital through the Ministry and the Committee of Safety.
Count Leo Thun, at Prague, maintains a war of protocols with the Ministers at Vienna, and reasserts Bohemia's independence of Austria.
The great Sclavonian Assembly has held two sittings. Its debates, however, are unreported, on account of the diverse Sclavonic dialects in which it was conducted: no reporter was competent. French was pro- posed; but only 80 of the 400 members were masters of that tongue. German will be the only resort.
ITALL—The Milan papers, to the 9th instant, contain a proclamation by the Provisional Government showing the result of the votes taken through- out Lombardy on the question of union with Piedmont. The votes have been 561,002 for immediate union, and 681 for postponing the question till the termination of the war. A commission had been appointed to proceed to Turin and negotiate succeeding steps, and had already set out on the mission.
The dates from Charles Albert's head-quarters, now at Peschiera, are also to the 9th. The head-quarters of the Austrians had been moved to Mantua. The King intended to attack Riven on the 10th; then to carry his whole force forward between Verona and Mantua, for Isola della Scala: then to make the lower Adige the front of his operations.
The mails from Naples, to the 8th, represent the people there as having fallen into apathy. The provinces, however, are said to be in full revolt— the Basilicata and the Calabrias especially. It is said that 6,000 Sicilians have landed in Calabria. The Government has sent troops to Reggio and Pizzo.
From Palermo it is announced that the French Government has acknow- ledged the Government of Sicily; and that the Pope had graciously re- ceived a deputation, and expressed his sympathy with the people, but ad- vised them to remember that their war was not against the Neapolitan nation, but King Ferdinand alone.
INDIA.—By the Semiramis, which arrived at Suez on the 27th May, with Sir G. R. Clerk, late Governor of Bombay, and his suite, news to the 7th of May has been brought from Bombay. The revolt of Lahore, re- ported from Paris last week, turns out to have been a blundering version of an outbreak in Meehan, the capital of the district of its name in the South-west angle of the Punjaub. The rule of this country has been pro- fitable to Moolraj; but he avariciously schemed to get his tribute lowered, and several times offered to resign. Colonel Lawrence paid no attention to these chicaneries; but his successor, Sir Frederick Currie, took Moolraj at his word; and by his advice the Lahore Durbar accepted the proffered re- signation, and sent Mr. Vans Agnew and Lieutenant Anderson to take possession and appoint a new Dewan. This checkmate, Moolraj answered with a revolt; and on the 21st April he had possession of several strong- holds, with a body of many thousand good troops. Mr. Agnew and Lieu- tenant Anderson were at first assailed with violence, said to have been fatal to the latter; but the Sikh troops afterwards protected the English residents. A military force was in motion against Moolraj.
UNITED STATEN AND MEXICO.—The Caledonia steam-ship arrived at Liverpool on Wednesday; having left Boston on the 31st May, and Hali- fax on the 2d instant.
The external news is more important than the domestic; papers have been received from the capital of Mexico to the 13th, from Vera Cruz to the 16th May. A quorum of the Congress has at last assembled at Quere- taro, and General Herrera has been elected President. The former Presi- dent, Pena y Pefia, delivered an address boldly advocating peace at any price, and the ratification of the treaty. The discussion of the treaty was proceeding favourably, and it is anticipated that it will be ratified by about 60 votes to 15.
The Mobile Register has a letter, written by an "Alabama Volunteer," which is understood to represent the feelings of the Volunteers in Mexico, who are two-thirds of the army there: it deseribes a project enter- tained by them. They purpose staying in Mexico as citizens, after the war is over, and forming an Anglo-Saxon republic. It is said that a large party of native Mexicans desire success to the scheme, as many eminent American officers would remain and contribute to form a stable civil government.
The accounts from Yucatan consist of shocking narratives of anarchy and Indian excesses. A truce was concluded. It is said that on the 7th May the Indians entered Martel, broke the truce, massacred 200 men, and committed horrible outrages.
News of Indian combinations and of bloody warfare arrive also from Oregon. Four tribes joined against the Whites; and four battles had been already fought in January—mostly to the advantage of the Whites.
The internal American news is meagre. General Scott has returned to New York; his entry a magnificent ovation. The Democratic Conven- tion assembled at Baltimore, and nominated General Cass, of Michigan, and General W. 0. Butler, of Kentucky, for the next Presidential and Vice-Presidential elections.
The steam-boat Halifax blew up in the Augusta locks, on the 23d May, and three persons were killed. A fire happened at New York in which 100 omnibus-horses were burnt to death, HATTL—By way of Boston, we have intelligence from Cape Hayden to the 9th May. The whole South of the island was in rebellion. The contest is one of colour,—President and Negroes against Mulatto in- surgents; and it is waged by assassinations and war without quarter. Pre- sident Soloque is an ignorant Black: the Mulattoes had a prospect of de- feating him, and it was said he had sent to France with proposals and for help.
