THE ROYAL SPEECH.-THE ADDRESS.

The SPEAKER having read her Majesty's speech de-
livered by royal 00111NdiINNS is the Home of Lords,
Lod RICHARD OROSVENOR, who wow the uniform
of an officer is the Cheshire Yeomanry, roes to move
humble address to her Majesty in reply to the royal speech.
Mr. GOSCHEN, who we. received with loud cheers,
said, in eicoodisig the address, there could Le osly
one opinion as to the object of the policy of her
Majesty's goversment—that object being waft. (Chews-)
But imaminow es they wore with regard to tho

of opinion as to the means which Weald ha adopted
to sem» that sod. (Hear, hear.) That was by no MOM
wownerily a warlike policy which coctomplated the pose-
hility of messuree being bad mourn to far the pupate of
coming disturbers of pesos. Os the other hard, that was
by so meow a pad& policy which laid down the dairies
of absolute coo-utterwattos, sod which thereby alma ►eld
out a temptotion to aggrelaios. (Load opposition chews. )
The home would rejoice with ►im that the speech from the

interest and its duty to lake. (Ureen.) Tie coo ides that

THE AUSTRO-PRUSSIAN ULTIMATUM.

The following are the terms of the ultimatum
addressed to Denmark by Austria and Prussia, on
the 30th ult. :

The governments of Austria and Prude bad hoped that
the joist cosstitutioo for Denmark and Maude, suctirmed
co the 18th of November of lest year by his Majesty kieg
Christian Lb, and which was to come into operatics on the
the let January, 1864, would ere this have bees annulled.
That hope has not been fulfilled. On the lot January of
I this year this constitution came into force, and thereby the
ineorporporatioe of Sleswig was consummated.
The Royal Danish government bee thee undoubtedly
broken the eagagements which it entered into in the per
1852 towards the German Diet, and especially towards the
two German powers. and has called forth a state of affairs
which commit be considered in aeoonfaeos with treaty stipu-
lations. The two powers au, in cossequence of the atti-
tude they took up during those serotiations 11.1:
mutt of which was approver! of, on
reeenissendatioa) by the German Diet, in duty bound,
both to themselves and the Germs Confederation,
not to allow such a state of things. They address, therefor,
once more to the Royal Danish government sit &sprees 110•
mood to withdraw the constitution of the 18th of Novem-
ber. 1863, which due not rest on soy just heals, and
thereby at least to re-establish the status quo, Ns being the
necessary um/Rion for all further negotiations. Should
the Royal Danish government sot comply with this demand,
the two powers would Plod themselves compelled to apply
the means at their disposal to re-establish disdains quo sad
to secure the Duchy of Sleswig against the unjust incorpo-
ration with the 'undoes of Denmark. The uodersiened,
hitherto ambassadors of the two powers, although not for-
mally accredited, I. Ibis ease eating by special order of their
governments, have been instructed to demand the with-
&awe' of the constitution of the 18th November of last
year, aod to leave Copenhagen if • declaration to the effect
that this demand haa been complied with doss not reach
them before the 18th of this month. _ . .

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE POLICY OF FRANCE.

The uncandid conduct of the French government
with regard to the Danish question provokes the
following remarks from the &Me :—" In former
times an interpellation in the chamber would have
compelled the foreign minister to say what the
policy of the government really was. Now we are
reduced to the articles of the Constitutionnet as our
only source of information. Would it not be
better to give direct explanations, if not in the
chamber, at least in the columns of the Moniteur
In spite of the assurances of the Constitutionntl,

that France has no direct interests involved in the
contest on the Eyder. the country cannot under-
stand how it happens that a treaty to which France
was a party is flagrantly violated, or how
such an important question as that of the duchies
can be settled by force without France having any
part in the arrangement."
London, England, 1864-02-05

THE DEFENCES OF SLESWIG.

The People's Gazette of Berlin publishes the fol-
lowing details of some of the defensive measures
adopted by the Danes :

According to private accounts from Slaiwig the Danes
°cation° actively engaged in fortifying that tow*. Their
lad refuge will consist in the works erected on the Finde.
dobbin, an eminence situated at the gates of the town,
and which, notwithstanding its Imo extent, arll offer •
very solid point of reeistence, in consequeore of the bat-
teries which defend it. Those works are prim :dad with
high ramparts and deep ditches, and join, by forming a
half circle, the suburb of Fredericksburg. Four
homes which do< d is the way of those redoubts
have been demolished, and the road has been out
in order to join • stream of water which protects them on
the south to the Eichlei. Neasures have been at the same
time taken to cover • retreat by putting those redoubts in
coonexion with a military road which goes from Fredericks-
berg towards the north. That road extends in an opposite
direction as far ro the Dannewerke. In coosequeace of
those arrangements, any attempt to turn the Dannewerke
by the aid would meet with very serious difficulties. Gen.
de Nese, doubtless, had such au eventuality in view when
he lately fortified an 'eland in the Schlei, whence the
Eekerofcerde raid could be commanded to a great extent.
No doubt can, therefore, exist that the Doom are prepared
for a desperate resistance.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(nom ant owl oonswonnsirr.)
PARIS. THEIBLWAT EVZNING.
The Queen's speech was known in Paris before
the close of the Bourse. The assurances of her

Majesty that she would still continue her efforts in
favour of peace were laid hold of by the speculators
for the rise as evidence that England will not help
Denmark; and, under these circumstances, their
hope is that speedy success on the part of the over-
whelming forces of Austria and Prussia will put an
end to the war. On the other band it is remarked
that the Queen is advised to insist strongly upon
the "integrity of the Danish monarchy " and upon
the maintenance of the "avowed objects" of the
treaty of 1852. Moreover a telegraphic summary
of an article in the Daily News of this morning
hints that ministers in their speeches to
parliament will probably submit to the
country that a more energetic conduct
is really neceasaty than it was desirable to indicate
in a speech from the throne. The latter conside-
rations, added to the material fact of a fall of
Consols, made the Bourse extremely heavy. Rente
fell 20c. for cash, and 15c. for account, closing at
661 r. and 661 r. 10c. Mobiller fell 13fr. 25fr. The
Northern Railway fell 6fr. 25c. ; in other Foes
there was little change.
The France speaks of a pilvate despatch from
Hamburg of this day's date, stating that Miasunde
has fa"en, but no other paper contains the news,
which I would fain hope is not true.
A despatch from Kiel tells us the story that
General Meza has declared that he cannot hold the
Dannewerke for more than six days against the
superior numbers of the German army, but that
the enemy must lose 5,000 men per day. The
Dannewerke is the stronghold of the Danish army.
The Pays says that out of 70,000 men which con-
stitutes their whole force, 63,000 are in that
fortress.

The Akkbar of Algiers states that as soon as the
speeches made by M. Ernest Picard and M. Jules
Fevre, in the Legislative Body, on the Algerian
question, became known in the colony, a number of
persons came forward to offer subscriptions for the
purpose of presenting to those gent:emen an object
of Algerian at;. as a testimonial of geatitude for
their efforts in promoting the interests of the
colonists. A committee is to be appointed on the
matter.

CANADA.

MONTREAL, Ocr. :N.

The conference which has been sitting at Quebec
since the 10th inst. closed its formal proceedings
yesterday afternoon. It is expected that a final
meeting of the delegates, who are nearly all here
enjoying the hospitalities of the town, will take
place to-morrow. In a few days a resume of the
whole proceedings will be placed before the public.
After some hesitation ou the part of the Hon. M.
Erimonds, who represents the United States go-
vernment, the further proceedings in connexion
with the trial of the St. Alban's raiders have been
transferred from St. John's to Montreal. The
prisoners were brought in here by special train
last evening, and quietly lodged in gaol. On the
warrants made out against them they will
be brought before Judge Coursal on Wed-
nesday next. The cases are exciting consider-
able feeling throughout the province. The leader
of the band is Lieutenant Young, son of Judge
Young, of Kentucky. Ail the prisoners are from
the same State, and belonged to General Morgan's
troop. Moot of the men have escaped from
Northern prisons. It is alleged that Young holds
a special commission from the Secretary of War at
Richmond, authorising him to perpetrate raids
upon Northern territory. He is very gentlemanly
and intelligent, is scarcely 21 years of age, and
formerly studied for the ministry at Toronto
College.

Many persons inhabiting the ground floors of

however believed that few lives have been lost.

THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT.
TURIN, Nov. 10.

The debate on the bill for the transfer of the
capital was continued to-day in the Chamber of
Deputies.
Signor Lazzaro opposed the bill. Signor Brofferio
censured the tendency to Piedmontism.
Signor Ferrari considered Rome for the capital
as a myth, which could not be entered into at pre-
sent. "We ought," be said, "to choose another
city, such as Florence." By accepting the treaty
with the transfer of the capital Signor Ferrari con-
sidered he acted freely, and obeyed the sentiments
and respected the dignity and interests of Italy.
He continued, "Everyone will interpret the treaty
after his own fashion. I myself am of opinion that
intervention may talce place at Rome. I ardently
desire the maintenance of the alliance with France
—a nation which affords a generous example to the
whole world. Let us have faith. We shall go
where destiny calls us. I believe in the future of
the Latin world, and consider the treaty with
France as a warning to the Sovereign Pontiff."
Signor Coppino spoke against the convention.

TDB CONVICT MULLER.

A deputatiou from the German Legal Proteetiou
docility, *Doman of Herr Barad's, Dr. E. Jucn, and
Masers. Baud sad Parker, the solicitors employed by the
misty, attended at the Homrodice yesterday afternoon
sad prioentad the society's memorial on behalf of the
oonvici Muller to Mr. Everest, Sir George Grey brims out
shows.

Herr Bitairoirs, in presenting the memorial, read the
several declarations which were appended to it, and ex.
plaised the late presentation of the new facts. He trusted
the prayer of t►e memorialists would not suffer from that
simusstasee. Before the trial they had collected what
Lacs they could, had Owed them in the hands of their pro.
fissional advisers, sod, on their advice, part of such Gets
were withheld from publicity, io, es it was thought, the in-
terest, of the accused. Since the trial the committee bad
published everything, sad the result bad beep the
valuable facts and statements they begged to submit to the
government. This explained the l►teness with which the
facts were brought forward. He hoped the government
would, notwithstaudiug that, give the natter their full con-
sideration, acid ultimately accede to the prayer of the
memorial for time to verify the truth of the several matters
sentained in the declarations.

Dr. Jlltli. in supporting the prayer of the memorial,
slated that be saw Muller the day after his arrival in Eng-
land, and affirmed that he never met a than giving a more
straightforward and consistent account of any matters on
which he was questioned, always telling the same story and
a the same simple, honest way. In preparing his defence
Muller always repudiated the adoption of any but a similar.
coarse. lie was always opposed to anything that even
appeared to revuer him if is any way mingled with error
or misrepresentation. Dr. Juch also urged that the con--
mitt*n were not reeponsilile for the late production of the
facts, soil he hoped this would not militate against Muller.

Yr. BEARD brwdy supported the statements of Dr. Juch
as to the ingenuous and frank character of Muller when pre-
paring his defence. Mr. Board also presented a letter
addressed to Sir George Grey.
Mr. Et nu-sr assured the deputation that their memorial
sad decluations should here the fullest attention. and that
Mr. Beard should have the answer of Sir George Grey on
Saturday next.

HOLYHEAD HARBOUR.

The gigantic works carried on for many years
past, in:the coaetructioa of this important harbour, originally
under the supaintendeace of the late Mr. Riedel, but
during the Let seven yean under the direction of Mr. John
Hawimhaw, as engineer-in-chief, are approaching to a close,
ad within the next or following year will, se far to the
Grain Northern Breakwater is mocersecl, be fay cam.
plated. When finiahed the harbour will rank anima* the
finest displays of eoginsering sod meebeakal skill
is the kingdom. la the early progress of the
harbour discussions frequently took place in par-
boniest in reference to the outlay incurred
in the prosecution of the works ; but on Mr. Hawkshaw's ap-
pointment as chief engineer some modified/me of former
designs were adopted, by which the general effectiveness of
the harbour was fully maintained. For several years about
1,500 hands were employed in this great undertaking, the
larger number in quarrying stone from Holyhead mountain.
and the remainder in forming the breakwater. This Dumber,
in the last year or two, has been considerably reduced, and
at the present time not more than 200 am employed. An
improvement of very great importenes will immediately be
added to the harbour. The floating light, moored off the
extremity of the northern breakwater, is about to be
removed, and in is stead a axed light is intended to be
' placed is the solid stone of the immense protective work,
as mar to its extremity as possible. This will materially
increase the efficiency of the harbour is gales of wind, inas-
much as the floating light, owing to the length of cable
necessary to moor it in as fathoms water, with a high
ramie of tide, rendered it necessary for vowels entering to
give it a wide berth, and thereby escape the danger of being
driven on the opposite court.
Is addition to the works which the government are
completing at Holyhead, the Load.* and North-Wes-
tern Railway Company are materially increasing their
aceemmodation for goods trade. The old harbour is Wag
very math improved, and a long length of vertical walling,
with water frontage, is being erected, reclaiming mid melee*

THE PRUSSIAN OCCUPATION OF RENDS-

BIJILG.

MUNICH, AUGC/IT 1.

The Bavarian government has instructed ita re-
presentative at Frankfort to propose that the Diet
should demand the immediate withdrawal of the
Prussian troops who recently occupied Rendsburg,
and the ristoration of the previous state of things
in that town.

DRESDEN, Ammar 1.

At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies to-
day, Baron von Benst, in reply to a question as to
what steps the Saxon government had taken with
reference to the recent events in Reudsburg, read a
declaration made by the Saxon representative at
the last sitting of the Federal Diet. The Chamber
thereupon passed the following resolution :—"That
the .occupation of Rendsburg by Prussian troops,
which has taken place by the abuse of an over-
whelming force ,is a violation of the rights of the
German Confederation, and an outrage upon the
honour of the German Federal troops. The
Chamber hereby enters a protest against this act of
violence ou the part of a German Federal Power."
