THE WAR IN DENMARK.

A correspondent of the Times, writing from
Copenhagen on Monday, says :
"The brunt of the war will be directed against
Funen, and the Germans will, in all probability,
endeavour to force the passage of the little
Belt. Letters from Frederickstadt assure us
that a large number of boats and pon-
toons are being assembled on the Eider, at
Carlshutte, near Rendsburg. The preparations of
the Awitro-Prussians would seem to aim at some
warlike operations on a very large scale ; so much
so, indeed, that the Danish government, at a loss
to foresee against what point of their remaining ter-
ritory the enemy's blows may be aimed, have taken
the best precautions to place the whole coat in a
state of defence, sending even a good number of
tried soldiers to Elsinore to guard the entrance of
the Oresund against the dangers of a coup de maim
I have been assured that Denmark takes the field
at the outset of this second campaign with 40,000
men,one•fourth of which force oonsistsof newlevies,
which have been hastily drilled within the last
month or two. We are not told, as yet, who is to
be the commander•in-chief of the Danish army ;
but it is scarcely to be believed that Gerlach will
long be left ►t his post. His sueoessor, designated
by public opinion, is General Steinman. There
have lately been important movements of troops in
Denmark, and the government gives every sign
of their disposition to go to work with a will.
Several parties of daring adventurers, I know, have
set out, bound upon important secret expeditions."

A parliamentary return issued this morning gives
the number of medical degrees granted by the archbishops
at Canterbury from 1840 to 1862, with the mass of the
pawns ca whom they wire moterred. It cress that there
was eon degree waferred in this way is 1840, 1841, 1549,
and 1850; three degrees in 1851, sae is 1854, two is 1865,
two in 1858, two in 1861, and ow in 1862.

It appears from a parliamentary return issued
this morning that the oarporatios of Dublin, since the
commeeremest of the semioe of 1849, bare paid 3,9264

ACCIDWIT,

The plaintiff in this cue was a lad, and on the Bth April
last he was in a cart which was driven by his brother, and
was carrying home clean linen to the Earl of Wickloa.e.
When in Pleasant-row, New-road, and whilst pastor an
empty cart staying there. the plaintiff's cart came on colln
skin with an express Attu omnibus which was coming the
reverse way, and the can wu turned over upon the plain-
tiff. He wee pocked up bleeding and insensible, and was for
some time in danger ; but had now recovered. The doctor 'e
bill for attending him was 51. 7s. 6d.
His Lordship, in summing up, said that the present cue
was a melancholy example of how people were induced to
overstrain the truth upon the one side and the other. one
thing alone seemed clear in the case, and that was
that an empty cart was standing opposite the Buffalo.
Head. One of the plaintiff's witnesses said that his cart was
going no slowly that he could scarcely see it move, whilst
the driver said that suing the omnibus coming, and that
there was not room to pus, be drew up the horse to a stand
still. Other witnesses gave similar testimony, but two of
them contradicted each other as to which side the cart WAS
turned over upon. The plaintiff's RUNWAY were unanimous
that the °minibus was going at a rapid pare, having just
tuned the corner " short and sharp."
Os the other hand, the omnibus driver said that he saw
the cart coining at a " tremendous pace." while the omni-
bus was going " at a walk," and the conductor agreed upon
the gasstioa of pace, and added that when they had passed he
saw the cart "as if it had bees turned over by our omnibus."
Several of the passengers also said the cart was coining faet,
eight or nine miles an hour, whilst the omnibus was going
at about half that rate.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 251.
