Even a series of administra tive enactments testifying to good-will cannot con ceal the fact that the great question of the State organisation of Schleswig is being proceeded with without the consent of the population. " We, therefore, the undersigned, who belonged to the former Assembly of Estates of the Duchy of Schleswig, relying upon the assurances re ferred to above, and upon the regret expressed by the representative of his Majesty the King of Prussia at the want of an Assembly, coupled with the fact that the last year of the present elective period has already commenced, consider it a'duty incumbent upon us by the situation of the countriy to submit to his Majesty's representative the necessity of a speedy convocation of the Estates taking place in Schleswig. The opportunity will thus be afforded them of exercising their legal rights and privileges, and the voice of the country will be able to make itself heard amidst the reorganisation of political affairs rendered necessary in consequence of the Treaty of Peace of October 30, 1864." • MUTUAL LOAN FUND ASSOCIATION (Incarpor tted by Act of Parliament, 1830), 14, RU SSELL -STREET, COVENT-GARDEN, LONDON. ..,41-WA.NCES MONEY on Personal Security, Rills of Sale, ,i,reehold or beneficial Leasehold Property, without inquiry ;Fe, or any deduction whatever, for pert )ds of one, two, or Vree years, repayable weekly, monthly, or quarterly.

HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52, Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip- Wm of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished fro n the originals by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superier to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in mastication. 52, Fleet-street. At home from 10 till 5. SCIENTIFIC AND ORNAMENTAL PRESENTS.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE, FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given, gratpitously every week. The poor from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young womon, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittanco, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at l east £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will' you, in accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most 'welcome, your charity, help to carry on and and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

The Directors have the pleasure to submit to the Share holders a statement of accounts for the half-year ending the 31st December, 1865. From the annexed audited balance-sheet, it will be seen that the net profits during that period, after payment of all charge; and after deducting rebate on unexpired subscrip tions, amount to £5,418 165., including £2,442 ss. 2d. brought forward from the last account. The Director; therefore, declare a dividend for the half year at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, free of income tax, on the capital as paid up, which will absorb £1,804 45., and after placing £2,000 to a reserve fund, there will re main a balance of £1,574 6s. 11d., to be carried forward to the next account. It will be satisfactory to the Shareholders to know that, with the exception of about 100 shares, all calls have been fully met. In addition to the extensive system of agencies, estab lished in all parts of the world for the purpose of obtain ing intelligence for the English press, branches have been recently opened in Belgium, Holland, and Egypt for the supply of telegrams to the press and merchants in thoie countries, and are already doing a profitable business. It has, moreover, been determined to establish imme diately a branch in India, where the Directors have reason to believe there is a large field for the profitable extension of the sstem so successfully inaugurated by M r . R eu t er. The Ordinary General Meeting will, in future, be an nual, unless circumstances should render more frequent meetings necessary; but the usual interim dividend will be declared. In conformity with Clause 57 of the Articles of Associa tion, Sir J. C. D. Hay, Bart., retires from the Direction, but being eligible, offers himself for re-election. Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co., the Auditors appointed by the Directors, also offer themselves for election. The Dividend Warrants will be forwarded to the Share holders on the 7th February next.

SCHLESWIG, Feb. 1. A memorial has recently been addressed by a number of influential Schleswigers to Governor von Manteuffel, asking for the immediate convocation of the Schleswig Estates. The memorial commenced by referring to the proclamation of Field-Marshal von Wrangel, in February, 18G4, which said :—" We come to pro tect your rights. The laws of the country retain validity in so far as the safety of the troops does not require immediate and temporary exceptions." After stating that although peace has now been excluded for more than a year the temporary ex ceptional condition still continues—a circumstance which fills both German and Danish inhabitants of Schleswig with serious apprehensions—the memo rial proceeds : _ _ " A series of changes has taken place since Feb ruary, 1864, in the organisation of the country and its authorities, 'without any reference whatever to the legal co-operation of the r epresentatives. An amount of insecurity has entered into all political and commercial relations which endangers the rights not less than the welfare of the population. Nothing whatever has yet been done towards the establishment of a firm and settled condition which must necessarily harmonise with the demands of the present time and the rights of the people. Not even the requisite preparatory steps have yet been taken. " According to the existing laws the population is entitled to a certain, if only limited, amount of constitutional rights, in which the Government is not privileged to make arbitrary changes. The Go vernment has no right to issue laws, save with the assent of the representatives. Even in urgent cases, when the Estates are not sitting, and cannot be convoked as rapidly as circumstances require, pro visional orders may only be made upon the respon sibility of the Minister for the Duchy of Schleswig, whom the Estates, if they do not admit the urgency for issuing such provisional orders, are entitled to call to account before the Schleswig Court of Appeal. In every third year at latest the E s t ates m ust be convoked in general assembly to and debate propositions, petitions, and complaints. The year 1866, in which ley the Constitution of 1854 for the Duchy of Schleswig the convocation of the Estates must take place, has already begun. But as the majority of the members and deputies are for various reasons not constitutionally repre sentatives, the country does not at present possess the legal organ suitable for the exercise of any con stitutional rights and privileges whatever. A series of legislative measures has nevertheless been ordered, which must undoubtedly be considered as requiring the assent of the representatives. " The entire financial administration of the coun try is based upon administrative pleasure, mithout any constitutional control. . " The land is occupied by as large a garrison as General von 11lanteuffel has issued a proclama tion by way of reply to this memorial, the dosing paragraph of which is as follows : " I pass over the tone, arguments, and accusa tions of this document, and refer merely to the words I addressed to the officials in Flensburg on the 25th September last year. I said, ' The circum stances in which the Duchies still continue have unfortunately rendered requisite the cessation of an element indispensably necessary to their prosperity —I mean the representation. So long as this is in abeyance, it is doubly our duty to fulfil our func tions in order to replace it as fully as possible. Believe me, all of you will feel gratified when the legal assembly at a future day expresses its approval of your efforts.' Circumstanees are still in the same position now as then. The duty of fulfilling our functions with redoubled zeal still rests upon me and all the officials of the Duchy. With God's help we will accomplish it." The Austrian Emperor and Empress in Hungary. PESTI', Feb. 2. Yesterday forenoon their Majesties gave audience to the deputations from the Diet, from the city of Pesth, and from Buda, bidding them welcome upon their visit to Hungary. The deputation from the Diet was introduced by the Tavernicus Baron Sennyey, when the Prince Primate addressed the Emperor as follows : " Imperial and Royal Apostolic Majesty,—Your Majesty's renewed visit to this faithful metropolis, so inexpressibly gratifying to our country, affords the most striking proof of that paternal and royal favour your Majesty deigns to dedicate to the pros perity of our nation and our land. " But your Majesty's present appearance is of a doubly gratifying character. Your Majesty has deigned to fulfil the ardent desire and request of the nation by coming among us with our most gracious Queen, and affording the sons of the country the opportunity so eagerly desired of expressing their sentiments of devoted veneration, faithful attach ment, and warm affection to her Majesty's person.. "Profoundly grateful for this mark of favour, the assembled Diet has considered its agreeable but at the same time indispensable duty required it to lay at your Majesty's feet the assurance of its warmest thanks, most devoted alleziance and homaze, and the privilege of being the interpreters of these sen timents has been conferred upon us. "May your Majesty deign to receive these assur ances with your accustomed paternal condescension, and permit us at the same time to greet you with the cry echoing unanimously throughout the coun try, of 'Long live the King !' " His Majesty replied : " It affords me pleasure again to meet the Estates and representatives of the country, and that, taking this opportunity of complying with your wishes, I have been able to come amongyou withtheEmpress. Regard this circumstance as a renewed proof of my paternal affection, which finds its greatest satisfac tion in realising the attainable wishes of the coun try, and as a token of that hearty sympathy with which I watch your highly important labours, and hope for their successful result. " Notwithstanding the many difficulties in the way of a solution, a firm will and mutual confidence will go far towards that solution being secured. If—as I do not doubt—you are animated by the belief that a firm determination, based upon the correct appre ciation of circumstances, is able to remove all im pediments—if the representatives of the country reciprocate by their acts the confidence of their Sovereign —you will then undoubtedly succeed in soon drawing near to the object which must be striven for with cordially united strength in the in dispensable interest of your country and of all my people." Accept yourselves, gentlemen, and convey to those who sent you, my hearty greeti ng ), Turning next to the Empress, the Prince Primate addressed her Majesty as follows Boundless is the exultation and unspeakable the gratitude of • entire Hungary, now that one of our warmest and most heartfelt wishes is fulfilled by your Majesty's visit. It has long been the ardent hope and expectation of the faithful Hungarian nation that the opportunity would be offered it of testifying to your Majesty face to face its reverence, its devoted veneration, its sincere affection and at tachment in the heart of the country. Your Majesty has now graciously listened to the ardent wish and heartfelt request of the sons of this country, has fulfilled and realised their hopes. " May your Majesty deign - to accept the warmest thanks of the entire country for this gracious con descension, and to receive the greeting it is our happy fortune to tender on behalf of the Diet. W e trust your Majesty will feel convinced that we reckon the period of your stay amongst us to be the happiest and proudest days of our lives, and beg you to accept from the depths of our hearts the unani mous cry of ' Long live our most gracious Queen I" Iler Majesty replied : «A long-cherished wish of my heart is fulfilled in my present visit to the metropolis of Hungary with my illustrious husband, for I feel sincere at tachment and warm sympathy for this noble coun try, and come among you with great pleasure. It is, therefore, extremely agreeable to me to receive the hearty welcome of the Estates and representa tives of the land, and I reciprocate it with the ardent hope that the Almighty may accompany your labours, whose influence extends far beyond the limits of the country, with His richest blessing." _ Addresses of a ver y s i m il ar c h arac t er t o th a t of the Prince P r i ma t e were nex t rea d to h er M a jesty o stY_ by the chief m a y ors o f P es th an d B u d a , to each which the Empress returned b r i e f, and gr acious replies.
