address, on the 21st inst., the King of Denmark
issued a proclamation dissolving the Lower Chamber
of Representatives. This is the third dissolution
within twenty months. The new elections will take
place on the Ist of December. An address has been
issued to the Danish public, calling on them to
support the whole State plans of the Ministry, and
threatens all persons in public employment, especially
the clergy, should they oppose or refuse to support
the Cabinet.

After Crated had read the decree for the dissolu
tion of the house, Lindberg proposed "The Consti-
tution unchanged for ever!" which was rapturously
applauded, with nine cheers for the speaker. The
galleries then gave enthusiastic cheers for the Danish
Parliament, and loud cries of "Down with the

GERMANY.
The last Prussian note, it is said, has excited the
marked displeasure of Austria, and Count Buol has
replied to it in such a pungent manner as to have
created a deep sensation in diplomatic envies.
The Bavarian Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. von
der Pfordten, has arrived in Berlin, to act, it is said,
as mediator between Prussia and Austria. He has
since proceeded to Vienna. Count Esterhazy has re-
turned to Berlin from Vienna, bringing the answer
to the last Prussian note.
The Lloyd announces that a oonference upon the
Prussian note took place on the 20th at the Ministry
for Foreign Affairs. The interview was but little
calculated to lead to the hope of union between the
3erman powers. The dissidence between Austria
.nd Prussia goes on increasing. Another despatch
bites that Count Buol and the French and English
tinisters took part in the conference spoken of by
to Lloyd.

not yen yet despaired of having accepted, it being
undestood that the bases laid down by England and
Frans are those which Austria retains.

and, although tin contractors have 'men allowed
