On the ground of difficulties which have arisen as to the presumptive succession to the Austrian throne, the Archduke Maximilian has deferred the reception of the Mexican notables who had been deputed to request his acceptance of the Imperial crown of their country. It will be remembered that Sunday last had been appointed for the recep tion, at which the Archduke was to have formally accepted the Imperial dignity.

THE WAR IN DENMARK. (fox oua erzaAL SONDERBOBG, liAsca n. It is now known that Denmark h a s accepted $ conference, and this great piece of news was imme diately followed by King Christian's arrival in Alien. Some people suppose that his Majesty will arrange with Marshal Wrangel for a suspension of hostilities. Others maintain that fighting is still to continue. If these last are right in their view of the case, nothing will have been gained to Den mark by entering the conference, for she must still I make ruinous efforts to protect her invaded terri tories. Moreover, there is danger that Europe may sooner be tempted to forget the utter injustice of Austria and Prussia, should those Powers appear as negotiators. Even a burglar acquires momen tary respectability when standing politely, pistol in hand, to treat with his victims. And Danish claims will, perhaps, suffer neglect through this very meeting with her enemies at the council board.. Of one thing there can be scarcely a doubt, saiseini-timt no goverameut at Copenhagen would venture to yield up all that Germany demands. A conference may serve to show, for neutrals' benefit, what are the points at issue between the belligerents -♦ matter wall known to themselves—and there its usefulness will probably end. The King has visited Dybbol-hill, running some risk, it is said, from a bursting shell ; and then, with his usual kindness of heart, he spent half a day in the hospitals of Auguatenburg. Such at tention to the wounded soldiers is keenly felt by their comrades, and Christian LX. stands well with his army. In a force so highly educated things are discussed pretty freely ;rulers suspected of weak ness would forfeit all esteem, and the commonest Dane knows exactly what he is fighting for. A thorough gentleman, as is his Majesty of Denmark, will sever desert the cause which he has sworn to defend. "We are safe with the King," is re marked on every side, "and the ministers dare not betray us." I went yesterday to the extreme left, opposite Broagerland, where most damage has been received from Prussian artillery. A climb up the windmill had shown everything quiet among our enemies across Venningbund, whilst in Dybbol village they seemed to have only some scattered outposts. No sign of opening trenches, and, still more important, no bombardment from oeir the water. This was the very moment to visit batteries 1 and 2, which are generally unapproachable by day owing to the constant fire directed against them. So, quickly descending the ricketty stairs of that some day to be historical mill, my steps were turned towards the rifled cannon on Broagerlaud. Great holes had been torn through banks and walls, the fields were deeply marked by falling shells, and many curious sym p toms appeared of uneasiness among the pickets. Soldiers lay close behind any scrap of shelter, ditches were popular resting places, in fact a stranger sud denly put down near Battery 1, would have fancied himself an intruder upon some game at hide and seek—only that here all were hiding. One but was decorated with a monster shell, which had not exploded, and the men seemed very proud of their trophy. But yet they looked anxious, until I realized my position and stooped under cover of a wall. Still no sound of firing. A civil artillery ser geant was explaining some changes in their works, as we stood between the batteries, and I began to think that perhaps a truce had been arranged, when the sergeant caught my arm dragging me with him to the ground. There came a scream ing whizzing noise, as of twenty demons fighting in mid-air, and a shock that made our teeth chatter. Then another more distant, another close at hand, which happily did not burst, two more flying far over head, one just in front causing a shower of stones to fall around us, and the first volley was expended. Guided by my ex perienced companion we rapidly quitted this dangerous locality, leaving the poor fellows on duty to crouch for shelter where best they might. I only stopped for a moment to pick up one of the pieces in memory of this narrow escape. The sergeant having arrived safely at DybSal windmill bowed and retraced his steps, whilst my old friends of the regiment, encamped hard by, invited me to lunch with them. These rifled guns have done away with old fashioned mortars and spherical bombs ; which last no longer soar through the sky, to drop at length upon their foes. Now, the shells are conical, and come straight at the mark. NAVAL AND MILITARY. ADMIRALTY, MARCH 28. ATPOI Chief Eagiasers— R. J. Hay, to the Bombay, J. Coeds, to the Cumberland for the Bristol.

[vamped, id, Additionla THE VOLUNTEER REVIEW. (noir oars own smarm) GUILDFORD, liorrear. Never perhaps was any locality more appropriately christened than the dark, dismal, rugged waste upon which the volunteers this day carried on their mimic warfare, under difficulties which would have appalled lees ardent and patriotic soldiers. Black heath in Surrey, far different from the verdant down so well known to London citizens, is black indeed, covered with the blackest and most funereal furze that ever sprung from an abnormal and capricious vegetation, and permeated everywhere with an equally dismal undergrowth which can be compared to nothing but blue mould. To make matters worse, the sky was all the morning as black as the terrain, and heavy drops fell every now and then, not enough to give the spectators a wetting, but quite sufficient to make them uncomfortable, and to keep up a constant apprehension of a regu lar Blackheath deluge. The excitement which I described as pervading Guildford yesterday was very much intensified this morning in consequence of the successive arrivals of volunteer corps by the South Western Railway, and when the towns people, the volunteer oftieers, and the visitors who bad been in town since Saturday rushed to meet at the appointed volunteer station. The corps that came by this route were first on the ground, the London Scottish being one of the earliest arrivals. Troops, however, kept constantly arriving by both routes and by successive trains. The South Western army was despatched with the greatest expedition, there being very slow work with the South Eastern trains, particularly those that , brought up the country corps. It was but slow work again getting from Guildford to Chilworth, but considerably slower getting from thence to the Grand Stand. The passage of Tangley-lane in any sort of vehicle was a terrible undertaking notwith standing the efforts of Lord Grantley to make it passable, the sand getting softer at every turn of the wheels, and the acclivity of the lane rendering &general resort to pedestrianism indispensable before theaseent wasone-halfachieved. Theguns of thellon ourable Artillery Company, with their bombardiers and drivers, remained half-way up until a very late hour • indeed, I believe they barely saved their distance in time to take their share in the battle of Blackheath. On the heath it was at least half past 12 before the various corps were all in position and ready for the preliminary inspection of General Pennefather, who had himself some difficulty iu reaching the ground. The gallant general cud his staff left the north camp station, Aldershott, at about a quarter to 11, and it was with the greatest difficulty that room was found for them in the heavily laden train. The general, I understand, was found a place in a aeoond class carriage, but the I lbrilliant aides-de-camp had to content themselves with standing room in a horse-box. On the I ground he was joined by Lord Lovaine, in the' Northumberland Yeomanry uniform, and a general canter was then taken over the ground. Those who have been accustomed to see the vast gather ings of the Derby - day, or even the volunteer crowd on Brighton-downs, would be surprised at the small numbers of the general public which had gathered round the Grand Stand at Blackheath, the most favourable point for seeing what was to be seen. Rosemary, not Roaatmeat, bill is, I understand, the OM* of this favoured locality, upon which those who occupied the Grand Stand were tolerably comfortable and had a wicked pleasure in gazing on the drawled crowd who were driven in at intervals, not by the skirmishers, but by the rain. The majority of those fugitives had selected and occupied what they deemed to be the most favourable points of view from an early hour in the morning, but just as the first gun was fired down came the rain, up went the umbrellas, and saner qui pent became the general rule of con duct. A group of about two hundred, covered with umbrellas, stood their ground in front of the stand, but, where the rest of the five-and-twenty thousand " public," whom the police estimated to be on the ground, were to be found would be a not very easy problem to solve. There were a few card-sharpers scattered about, who were obliged to keep their hands in practice by cheating each other ; but as for the other usual accessories of a great holiday gathering, the gipsies, the travelling auttlers, the stick-throwers, the acrobats, the dealers in the fugitive literature of the occasion, or even the negro nielodista, there was no trace of them to be found anywhere on Black or Farley Heath. Towards 2 o'clock the weather began to clear, the atmosphere looked a little less sulky, and we began to get some final idea of what the voluuteers were really doing. The programme supposed the South Eastern army tel be the attack ing force, and the Heath to be nefeoded by the troops who had come by the South Western. The reserve of this latter army could be seen from the stand, but the main body was over the ridge , on Farley Heath, the much disputed territory of .ord Lovanee. I have received various estimates of the total number of volunteers on the ground at this time, but the most reliable estimate puts them down at 14,000--6,500 for the attack, and 7,500 for the defence—each body being divided into four brigades. Neither the lane of Court" nor the Victoria Rifles were present, the members of the former being on circuit, and the commandant of the latter not having been able to get a sufficient num ber of them together in time. At half-past 1 o'clock the first great gun was fired, and then another and another. Very soon after the desultory " pop," " pop," of the skirmishers broke upon the ' ear, and, anon, the sharp rattle of the file-firing and the volleys, which in real battle deal such quick destruction on the foe. The practice was at this time pronounced to be particularly good, the reports being sustained in one regular coutiuued roll, and very massive in sound, just as it might be expected from highly drilled regiments of the line in action. The • Battle" was very awn at its height, and must have extended for upwards of three miles, the firing being kept up all along the line with the most determined rigour. The troops could be seen struggling on the crest of the hill, now advancing, then giving way a little, and occasionally one or two shots from the great guns of position mingled with the din of war. The whole struggle seemed as if taking place in the ravine which divides Black Heath from FarleyHeatli, and at about half-past two o'clock the crowd, whom the rain had at an earlier period driven away, came rushing back to the ground, and were enabled to be very close spectators of the battle. At about that time the flank movement of the attacking force commenced with a feigned attack on the right of the defending force, and the defenders of Farley Heath were promptly driven back on their supports. The volley and file firing became more intense every moment, and the battery of the reserves opened ou the attacking columns. The feigned attack had now become a real one, and nearly the whole of the men on both sides could be seen to be engaged. One 24-pounder in position on the extreme left of the Heath seemed to do tremendous execution amongst the advancing columns, until the latter brought up their artillery also, and, firing from a ridge, succeeded twice in driving in the de fence. Reserve after reserve was now brought up, and the struggle on the ridge assumed all the intensity of real warfare. The crowd cheered vigorously and then scampered away, for the army of defence, after performing prodigies of valour, wax now gradually giving way, and its broken columns began to converge irregu larly towards the grand stand, in the neighbour hood of which a cessation of hostilities was to take place. luch by inch the ridge was contested, but at last we could see the enemy on the crest of the hill, and as soon as their great guns opened fire the retreat became general all along the whole line of defence. The rain it is said can stop a revolution, but it had no effect on the minim strife of the CEWOPENCE volunteers, for although it now began to fall heavily, the battle raged as fiereely as ever. There was file-firing and volley-firing of the muskebn never ceasing booms from the great guns, columnsbroken and reformed with wonderM celerity, reserves rushing to the front, and main line getting broken, then reforming, and even the crowd, car ried away by the excitement, keeping its ground and contemptuously defying the showers. The in dividuals who seemed to be most susceptible to the atmospheric influences were the musicians of the different corps, who scampered away to shelter on the first drizzle, unmindful of the loss which their corps would suffer in being deprived of their mar tial strains. All this time the army of defence was being more sorely pressed every moment. The enemy kept spreading out on its flank, and sought to overlap the shrinking lines by bringing up fresh troops. The sorely pressed columns gradually re tired, but without confuaion, and reforming, at every available point, to keep up the resistance as long as possible. During these operations the first accident happened, I could not tell of what nature—and a mixed crowd of volun teers and spectators hurried off after the wounded man to the field hospital which bad been prepared to meet such an emergency. When we again turned to look at the battle, we could see that the attacking fore* bad now surrounded the defence on evet7 side, forming an arc as it were, whilst the remiuns of the resisting force were brought closer to the grand stand than was quite agreeable to the lady occupants. It had been feared all the morning that no cavalry could be spared from Aldershot, but now, at the eleventh hour, three or four squadrons came charging down the hills, whereupon the volunteers formed squares, and their artillery fired their last charge of ammuni tion almost immediately under the grand stand. The whole scene now became very brilliant and ani mated. The weather had again cleared, and the attacking columns could he well seen advanc ing at the double down the hill. The cavalry, which had found the squares of infantry impregnable, crested the eminence, and contented themselves with reconnoitring and keeping well out of range of the defenders great guns, which were being admirably worked imme diately under the grand stand. The infantry lay down, and the artillery played over their heads, and the attack seemed for some moments to have received a decided check. In the end, however, numbers and the rules of strategy prevailed, and the bugle warning to cease firing was heard along the whole of the defenders' battle. The great question now was, bow was the usual finale, a " march peat," to be managed I The crowd which had followed the fortunes of the day was now assembled under the stand, and so closely packed that it was found impossible to clear • road for the volunteers, General Peunefather objurgated, and waved his sword, and his aides rode frantically up and down ; but all to no purpose. The crowd—which after all was a very small one—was obdurate, and the con queuee was that the volunteers got " clubbed " into a regular mob in the centre of the ground, and then companies of red and blue and green and grey seemed to be mixed up together iu the most ad mired disorder. The visitors in the grand stand, who had been promised a march past, began to murmur, and the majority took to their carriages and left the ground. At last the general seemed to have managed a sort of diagonal march past, as the volunteer force was got into some sort of order, and advanced obliquely iu the direction of the stand. But it was very different from the Brighton marches past, and disappointed every one. I waited myself until two or three of the 14-pounders had tumbled into a rut, and as this completely spoiled the columns of parade, I thought it useless to brave the cutting wind and intermittent drizzle of the weather any longer. The conclusion to which I came upon the whole affair was that Black Heath is not particularly well suited for a volunteer review, and that Brighton Dowus answered niece better. At Brighton the ground undulates, and people who are well placed can keep the troops in sight the whole day ; besides, the standing arrangements of the race course suit equally well for the march past. At Black Heath, on the other hand, the ground forms a series of hillocks, behind which the men are hid from each other, and is composed of such& heavy soil as to make anything like celerity of movement, especially of artillery, impossible. It did not appear that the existence of two railways en abled the troops to get any sooner tothe ground, and the vicinity of Aldershot did not lead to a contribution of line cavalry for the charges. The few troopers who were present came from depot companies, and in the "march past" were scarcely sudicient to escort the general through the crowd. Even the Guild ford people themselves have, I believe, somewhat cooled in their martial ardour, for after making un heard-of preparations t o entertain the volunteers, they found to-day that the latter all carried the day'spro visions in their knapsacks, and so completely bad this been done that in one of the great refreshment booths, which had been erected under the immediate superintendence of the mayor, the whole sale of coffee did not exceed two gallons during the whole morning. The approaches to the heath from the town are very bad, and were to-day rendered much worse by the remissness of the local police, who per mitted individuals in volunteer uniform to ride down lanes which were only intended for foot pas sengers, and thus to create much alarm amongst crowds of helpless women and children. The only accident I have heard of wrote broken leg, &volunteer having unawares thrust his foot into one of the myriad holes of the common whilst advancing at the double. He was promptly carried off the ground, and bad hie leg dressed at the field hospital.

A ANNUITIEN BILL. —At a meta( of the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce, held oft ! Friday, the Government Annuities Bill formed one of the subjects of discussion. The chairman, Mr. Duncan Ml` moved moved that the chamber petition parliamest in favour of the bill; and is dotes so, cud he had gone over the tables of an Edinburgh cake, which showed the cheapest rate that premiums upon small annuities could be got for. Of noun they took the premium only awe a year, bat he assumed that • working man was to pay once • fortnight, and be added proportionally to the pre mium. The result was this :—lf a mats twenty-aye years of me chose to insure hie life by egreeim to ray 6d. • fortnight, he could ensure 321. at his death ; • man thirty years of age, paying 6d. a fortnight, would eastire 29i. at his death ; and • man forty years of age, by paying rid. • fortnight, could ensure 221. at Ilia death. Now, if government would just lay down the rule to take lid. a fortnight as the unit, nothing below it, with as many multiples of the6d. as • men chose, and had a table by which • man of any age, by p.yiug 6d. • week, would ensure so much at his death—in that way the working classes would understand the matter at once, and would ass that 321. could be ensured by a man at twenty-flve for 6d. • fortnight. A working man seeing this would be inclined to my, •• I would be a great fool if I would sot pay 6d. • fortnight for such • benefit to my family." They knew from the exposures toads by Mr. Wedgies' that, supposing • man were to pay four amnion at 25 years of age, he would get four times 321., 128 f.. while by the system prevaihog in England the canvassing agent got 25 per cent., thus getting one of the sixpences for taking care of the other three ; so that the working man, hound of getting four times 321., only got three times that amorist ithured. the chamber unanimouely Eldto petition parliament in favour of the bill, s ad o memorialise the Chancellor of the Exchequer out the subject, setting forth the desirability of introducing • simple system of fixed uniform fortnightly or monthly pay. inmate, is aooordaace with the suggestions of the chainusa.
