THE "CONSTITUTIONNEL" ON THE
DANISH CIRCULAR.
PARIS, MARCH 29.

The Constibitionne/ of to-day publishes an article
signed by M. Limayrac, on the Danish circular
referring to the conduct of the Austrian and Prus-
sian troops towards the inhabitants of Sleswig.
The article points out the anomalous nature of
their acts and concludes thus :—" Modern diplo-
macy should seek for a new code of international
law conciliating the liberty and dignity of nations
and guaranteeing the preservation of the European
balance of power."

Another article by M. Limayrac appears in the
same paper, maintaining that the enthusiastic re-
ception which Garibaldi will meet with in London
will be equally embarrassing to two of England's
allies—ltaly and Austria. The writer observes
that while England is preparing to welcome Gari-
baldi, a soldier who bas fought bravely for the in-
dependence of Lis country, she manifests scorn and
indignation at Mazzini, the instigator of infamous
conspiracies, and the associate of assassins.
