THE DANO-GERMAN QUESTION.

VIENNA, Avocet 2.

The A bendpoet (evening edition of the official
Wiener Zeining) says :—" Lauenbarg. Skswig, and
Holstein have been relinquished by Denmark with-
out any reserve.. At the same time a rectification
of the files** frontier was determined upon in the
interest of Germany.
"It is to the harmony existing betireen Austria
and Prussia that Germany owes the realisation of
her dearest wish, and to the same cause Europe
owes it that a general conflict has been averted.
Complete success was obtained by the moderation
displayed by the great Germain powers,
and the conviction arrived at by Den-
mark of their future sincere and loyal alliance.
The great German powers did not wage war for the
purpose. of conquest, or to realize imaginary ten-
dencies to nationality, but had in view the en-
forcement of positive and legitimate claims. The
Elbe districts are separated from Denmark
both by land and sea. These results will
be sanctioned for ever by an honourable peace.
Austria and Prussia do not wish to have any differ-
ences with the remainder of Germany, but they will
respect the privileges and the well-established rights
of the German Federal Diet."

PARIS. Ammar 2.

The Pays of this evening publishes an article
signed by its editorial secretary, severely censuring
Austria and Prussia for despoiling Denmark of the
Duchies of SleswirHolstein and Lauenburg,
without regard to race, origin, or nationality.
The Pays adverts to the sympathy shown by
France to Germany, and says :—" This is the
reason why we should sincerely regret to see Prussia
and Austria abuse their power towards Denmark
and impose upon her conditions of peace contrary
to equity and the principle of nationality.
" Austria and Prussia, in acting thus, not only
compromise themselves in the face of public opinion
in Europe, but the bad effect of their ambition will
recoil upon the whole of Germany, a result which
must surprise and afflict France."

THE SOVEREIGNTY OF SLESWIG-
HOLSTEIN.

FRANKFORT, AMUR? 1.
A great public meeting, consisting of about 5,000
parsons, was held to-day at Offenbach, near this
city. The following resolutions, emanating from
the committee of thirty-six (delegates from the
various German Diets), were passed upon the
occasion :

The German nation expecte and &moods that the German
governments, faithful to the obligations they have solemnly
contracted, should without delay axpsr, trough the Ger-
manic Diet, their recognition of Duke Frederick, and should
plane him in a position to enter upon the government of the
duchies, in acoonianoe with the constitution to which he
has sworn.

Tia;;liinTros of the Gina Duke of Oldimburg, the racogni•
lion of which would place German °coalmen in Domini
hands, ere null and void in the eyes of the nation, from the
simple fact that the people of the duchies will not have the
Grand Duke.

The people expecte end &moods the immediate ooevoca-
ties of the national Shiewig-Holstein parliament, without
which no leplly valid decision upon the futon of the
duchies ma be arrived at.

The tarn hitherto taken by the Sleswig-Holstein question
renders the institution of a national general representation
—a parliament of the Dermas nation—an urgent secessity.
as was solemnly acknowledged by 500 members of the
German Diets, without distinction of party, on the 21st
December, 1863.
It is only by this means that the good right and the
houthr of Germany can be protected and saved from such
intrigues and acts of violence as have recently occurred.
