BERLIN, Jove 23. The semi-official Prorinzial Correspondenz of to day publishes an article headed " War or Peace," which concludes thus :—" If the proposals of Eng land in reference to the line of demarcation were at all acceptable, the Emperor of the French would be the'oaly arbitrator possible, be having acquired the right to so distinguished an honour by the attitude he baa hitherto held. But Prussia maintains her view that a safe basis on which to establish a line of demarcation can only be determined by consulting the inhabitants. The proposal of England seems to find some support from Austria, who wishes to prevent her from taking part in the war. England has warmly declared that on the renewal of hostilities she will place herself with her fleet at the aide of Denmark. Hence a prolongation of the armistice has this time a special importance, since possibly it may prove a question of the commencement of a general Earl- Peal war. Whilst England insists upon a prolon gation of the suspension of hostilities, Prussia wishes to bring about a real armistice for a long period, settled on precise conditions, and with a mutual engagement to give four weeks' notice of cessation." The Correspondenz hopes that the meeting of Count Rechberg and Herr von Bismarck, as also the personal interview of the two sovereigns, may lead to a closer union on the question of the armistice. GERMAN PREPARATIONS FOR WAR, BERLLN, Jo Ns 23. The semi-official Norddeittsche Zeituns; of to-day says :—" Advices received here from Sieswig state that the troops are again moving northwards to take up their position. Thus we are again on the eve of war. A two months' prolongation of the armistice has been rejected, and the line of the Schlei is maintained as the utmost concession." THE FEDERAL DIET. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, Jaws 23. In to-day's sitting of the Federal Diet, tbe repre sentative of the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg stated the claims of Oldenburg to the Duchies of Sleswig- Holstein.

THE ALABAMA AND KEARSARGE. The following account of the naval engagement of Sunday last will be read with interest • I returned late last night from Cherbourg, where I bad been a witness to the fight between the Kearsarge and Alabama. I regret to see that Nome of the London papers are perverting and falsifying the facts, so as to do great injustice to the gallant officers and men of the Keanarge. The fight began about 11 a.m., and ended a few minutes after 12, lasting a little more than an hour. The Alabama fired about 17 shots at the Kearsarge before the latter fired a gun. The Kearsarge fired 173 shots. She was struck in the hull seven or eight times, but has sustained DO important damage at all, and is perfectly ready for active service. She bas a crew of about 165 men, that of the Alabama being about 147. The Alabama had eight guns, the Kearaarge only seven. The firing of the Alabama was very inaccurate, that of the Kearsarge was excellent. A large pivot gun was particularly effective. The Kearsarge is spoken of as being iron-clad ; she was no more iron-clad than the Alabama might have been bad they taken the precaution. She simply bad a double row of chains hanging over her sides to protect her ma chinery. Two shots from the Alabama struck these chains, and fell harmlessly into the water. The Kearsarge picked up 63 men, one dead body, and two men who have since died on board. She also took five officers. Captain Winslow would now have all the officers and men of the Alabama as prisoners had he not placed too much confidence in the honour of an Eagliahman who carried the flag of the Royal Yacht Squadron. The Club will be indelibly disgraced unless they take measures to repudiate and condemn the conduct of ' Mr. John Lancaster, owner of the yacht Deerhound. I have no doubt that this yacht was in the harbour of Cherbourg to assist the Alabama by every means in her power ; that abe did so I know ; her move menubefore the action prove it. When the Alabama went down, the yacht, being near, was bailed by Cap tain Winslow and requested to aid in picking up the men in the water. The request was complied with, and the Deerhound, after having rescued as sup posed about twenty persona, including Captain Semmes and First Lieutenant Kell, imme diately left, rimming towards England. Captain Winslow says the reason he did not pursue her or fire into her was that be could not believe anyone carrying the flag of the Royal Yacht Squadron could act so dishonourable a part as to carry off his pri soners whom be had requested him to save from feelings of humanity. Captain Winslow considers Semmes and his officers bound upon their honour to give themselves up as his prisoners of war. About fiveminutes before the Alabama went down a boat from her oseseto the Kearsarge with an offizer, whosurrenderedtbevessed, and then asked rrmiseion to return with his boat, to assist in picking up the men. This was granted, when the officer left,and after rescuing a number— principally officers, I understand—he west on beard the English yacht and escaped. Please excuse the hurried style of this letter, but I was anxious that while Captain Semmes and his party are being feted for their glorious conduct, you might be apprised of these positive facts. P.S. The Alabama hauled down her colours and ran up a white flag at least ten minutes, I should think, before she went down. Prisoners taken from the Alabama state that about three o'clock in the morning before the engagement teak place, the chronometers in theAlabann were trans. ?erred to the English yacht Deerhound, then lying in the harbour, not far from the Alabama. The Deerhound was, in fact, acting as tender to the Alabama before the action. [Stamped, id, Additional.] MUSIC. THBATILL Fidelio was produced at this theatre last night. This celebrated opera, the sole dramatic work of Beet hoven, has not been performed atei they of our Italian theatre tor several years, though at former periods it we. gives so often that it almost became a stock piece. It in not easy to find, at the rune time, adequate repreesetatives of the two priacipd ehersaters, sad there ere may difficulties attending its production. Were nut this the case. Fidelen would, one would think, he given se often as soy opera on the stage, fur no opera presents such a combination of a most touching and interesting story with mask which in grandeur sad beauty has never been surpassed. sad— except in the ease of Don Gioesesi—has sever been equalled. Her Majesty's Theatre has long penseased, in , Titiens, an actress and singer who was evidently the very beau idf al of Beethoven's heroine ; and the recast engage. ment of Dr. Guns bee furnished a fitting representative the hero. The 111111DOW1011111011i accordingly of Palelio, with Titian in the put of Leonora and • German tenor of high reputation in that of Florman, excited groat interest, and drew an overflowing audience. Titans has never been ex celled in her picture of the most charming and interesting character on the musical stage, the devoted and faithful—the brave, heroic wife. We have seen the great Leonora, who have appeared in Esteemed —Schscoisr•Devrient, Heinefetam, Malibran, Cruvelli—sad are nailed that Titans tails . the best qualities of than all. She has th e natural mu plicity of fichrceder-Demient, with more fire and passion ; and, on the whole, resemb:es that renowned performer more than any other of her vs:arson. As a singer she combines the best features of the German mod Italian ; schools, and her VOidll has attained a degree of power, sweet nese, and heart-touching tone that has probably never ' been excelled. liar delivery of the famous invocation to Hope was a marvellous dimple,' of beauty sod expres sion ; and during the scene in florestan's dungeon, her *very look, tone, and gesture kept the audience in a state of breathless excitement Her scream in exclaiming "Io son sea sposa." ware electrifying, and, after a moment of deep silence, ware followed by • storm of applause that seemed to shake the wells of the theatre. In short, of the many triumphs of our great lyrical actress, this performance of Lemma may be /spaded es moot the most splendid. NAVAL AND MILITARY. A DM:MALTY, .117N1 23. ATTDDITIMITIL Capkie A. P.
