Lord PALMERSTON moved that the orders of the day
be postponed until after the motion respecting Dean/ark.
I am bound to state to the boom that I have received tie-
day a communication from the Promise Ambassador, with
reference to the correspoodence which has bens published is
one of the morning newspapers. He says that since thet
newspaper had, notwithstanding of denial from binse
published despatches which he says are fabrications free
beginning to end, and thinking that some question might's,
asked me in this bones concerning them, be aster—" 1 demo

THE DANISH 9DESTION AND THE POLICY OP

TIIE GOVERNMENT.

Mr. DISRAELI then rose on the motion of which he
had given notice—" That an bumble address be presented
to her Majesty to thank her Majesty for directing the dere
respondence on Denmark and Germany, and the protasis
of the conference recently held in London, to be laid before
parliament ; to assure her Majesty that we have heard with
deep concern that the 'Alias, of that cooferenee have bees
brought to • close without accomplishing the importeat
purposes for which it was convened ; to express to her Me
jesty our great regret that, while the course pursued by bee
Majesty's government has felled to maintain their avowed
policy of upholding the integrity mad independence of Den.
mark, it has lowered the just influence of this country in
the counsels of Europe, and thereby diminished the securi-
ties for peace." He said—The longest and most disastrous
wars of models Europe had been wars of succeseion, sad
illustrated the general proposition by reference to the
Thirty Years' War and other examples of the sort. Palsies

case, how was it, he asked, that the position .f France
relative to Denmark was one so free from em-
barrassment and so dignified that it had ,erectly
received a tribute to its demeanour and unimpeechald•
conduct from her Majesty's Secretary of State, while.
the position of England was one of it:ignite ember
raisment, sod, he feared, of terrible mortification. Han's'
rapidly sketched in outline the course of events connected
with the question of the Duchies, the ri.;ht hon. geetleman
arrived at the end of the session of ISG t, when the question
was debated in tte House of Commons, and Lord Palmer-
ston declared that if any violent attempt were made to over-
throw the rights of Denmark, and interfere with its hide-
peodeoce, those who made the attempt would find in the
result that it would not be Denmark alone with which they
would have to contend. That was sedate. manly, and staies-
manlike declaration of policy ;and thadespatehes which WWII
soon after seat to our nitoisteis at Vienne etid Bet em sever* di
that it was a sincere policy. Moreover, it was wise Old
indiCiolll ; for at that time Fiance was perfectly ready to
es-operate with the government in any comae they
might think proper to pursue in reference to the tresses-
Moos between Denmark and Germany. That she &Hereto&
experienced • change of sentiment was owing to the refusal
of the Foreign Secretary to unite with Feline. on the Polish
questios, and his subsequent curt and offensive reply to
