LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

The Debate of to-day observes that if Russia has
told Turkey that a recognition of the Poles u
belligerents will be considered a caws belli, there
is no reason why Russia► should not hold the same
language to Austria. " The latter power," says
the Debate, " understands as well as anyone how
difficult it is for it to continue to change notes and
protests with Russia without the contest degene-
rating into combats more offensive. It is this
which renders Austria at once so prudent and so
hesitating, but it is this also which may render it
at any time very bold. The present situation
cannot, in fact, be prolonged without becoming for
Austria more dangerous than open war."
The Independence of yesterday evening doubts
the fact of any diplomatic representation on the
subject of the Poles having been made by
Russia to the Porte. " Turkey," says • the
Independence, "thinks much more of keeping clear
of the complications which the Polish question may
originate for her, than of provoking those vamplica-
tions ; and if, to suppose an impossible case, it
were her desire to recognise the Poles as bellige-
rents, she would await, before realising it, the reso-
lutions of the Western Powers."

GERMANY AND DENMARK.
THE THREATENED FEDERAL EXECUTION.
A letter from Berlin states that in the govern-
ment circles of that capital there is a conviction that
the Federal execution will take place. The difficulties
raised at Hanover relative to the command in
chief of the army of execution, and to many
other details, appear to be smoothed. Neverthe-
less the Prussian press continues to oppose the pro-
ject of execution. The People's Gazette of Berlin
publishes in connexion with this subject a compara-
tive table of the Danish and Prussian marine, and
shows the incontestable superiority of the first over
the second. In Austria, on the contrary,
and in the German States which regulate
their policy by that of the Cabinet of Vienna, the
execution prospects are regarded under a more
favourable point of view. Thus the Dresden
Journal seeks to demonstrate the superiority of
the Austrian marine over the Danish marine, and
to prove that Austria could entirely prevent the
blockade of the German ports of the North Sea
and of the Baltic by Danish vessels.
