DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

The news from Copenhagen a few days ago
threatened an approaching ministerial crisis, which
is now fully confirmed. This crisis has already
taken place. The King has been called, by the
debtele of his ministry, from Fredricksburg to the
capital. The programme the ministers had pro-
mised before the Diet has been the cause or
the occasion of the entire break-up of their councils.
They cannot at all agree together. The urgency of
the great powers, that their propositions should
be at once accepted and acted on, has also much
contributed to this result. The partial, at least,
dissolution of the ministry is ineritable. The
members mentioned as about to retire are

the Minister of War, General Flensborg, the Minis-
ter of Marine, M. Doekutn, and the Ministers of Jug.
tice and Public Worship, M. Scheel and Professor
Illadvig. Their successors, it is credibly given out,
will be Lieut.-General Hansen in the war depart.
meat. M. Steen-Bille for the marine, Professor ilall
and Count Charles Molkte for Justice and Public
Worship. The remaining members of the cabinet,
it is said, will retain their present posts; even M.
Bluhmo remaining in the Foreign Office. The great
object of the change about to take place is to enable
a reconstituted ministry to present a decided pro-
gramme, embracing all parts of the monarchy,
which will meet the wishes of the great powers
before the Diets. Count Sponcck, though formerly
a principal supporter of the project of the notables,
has declared himself now decidedly in favour of one ,
programme including the whole monarchy. Mean-
while Major-General Bodisko has arrived at Copen-
hagen from St. Petersburg, bringing a letter from
the Emperor of Russia to the King of Denmark
and other important despatches to the Russian Am-
bassaclor. General Bodisko had a long pri-
vate interview with his Majesty immedi-
ately after his arrival. Had he arrived pre-
vious, and not subsequent, to the ministerial crisis
it might have been imputed to the imperial letter, of
which he was the bearer. It appears that the report
'that Lord Palmerston had addressed a note to the
Danish cabinet was not true. The English envoy
at Copenhagen, however, had received instructions
!'r?Tr Walling-street to hold confidential communica-
lions with the Danish ministry, fully stating the
sentiments of the English government with respect
to the settlement of the Danish and Duchy questions,
land urging their promptest possible solution. Down

THE NAVIGATION LAWS.

TO THE EDITOR OP TAE HIMMEL
Stn,—The protection statists, at the head of whom
stands Mr. Newdegate, usually take the year 184.5 (the
year before the repeal of the corn laws) u the last year of
commercial prosperity, and compare it with the subsequent
years of free trade, in order to show the progressive decline
of our national welfare. Following their own process, I
find that the official value (or quantity) of our imports and
exports was:
In 1815 £236,159,860
In 1850
Increase, 26 per cent.
Again, the British cargo (inward and outward) was:
In 1815
In 1860
Increase, 43 per cent.
Thus, while our external trade has increased since 1845
26 per cent., our shipping cargo has increased since then '
43 per cent. Does it not plainly show, that whatever cause
our commercial men may or may not have to complain of
low prices, there exists no reason for grumbling on the part
of our shipowners, since the employment of their tonnage
1 has as within the last five years 43 per cent., or 17
per cent. more than even our commercial interests
I remain, Sir, your obedient servant,

FRANKLIN'S POLAR EXPEDITION.

(Facist AN OCCASION AL CORRESPONDENT.)
A fresh effort is about to be made in a region
hitherto untried to discover traces of this long-missing ex-
pedition. From the remains found at Cape Riley it is now
pretty generally inferred that the exploring vessels passed
through Wellington Strait, beyond which and to the
north of tho Parry Islands it is thought by many geo-
graphers and navigators that they would meet with a
more open or " Polar " Sea. It is also believed that
Franklin himself had resolved to endeavour to reach
the longitude of Ih:bring's Strait by sailing westwards
in such Polar Sea. On these data Licuteimat Pim,
a zealous and able officer, who has served on board
her Majesty's surveying-,hip Herald, Captain Kellett, in
Behring's Strait, has formed the following plan of search:
" Ile conceives that when Franklin reached the longitude
of Behring's Strait ho would be foiled in all his efforts to
get southwards through the one only passage, from meeting
with a great cast and west barrier of ice and land, and that
consequently he may have struggled on along its northern
shore, further to the west, until he became inextricably en-
tangled in a region which, though entirely devoid of human
beings, is supposed to abound in animals on which the naviga-
tors could subsist. Lieut. Pim has in consequence suggested
the following bold plan of research: lie purposes to leave
London on the 11th of November fur St. l'cfcrsburgh,
whence, if the project should meet with the approbation of
the imperial authorities, he wishes to travel directly across
Siberia to the mouth of the river Kolyma. Thence, accom-
panied by two or three persons only, he will proceed either
to the islands of New Siberia and others visited by Wran-
gel and Anjou, or in whatever other direction he may be
led by the information obtained by the Samoyedes, who
roam farthest towards the north in those parallels of
longitude, there occupying himself in a thorough
survey during two or more years." This ar-
duous project has met with the approbation of many geo-
graphers, and is warmly advocated by Lady Franklin ;
whilst, in order to facilitate its success, the president of the
Royal Geographical Society, Sir Roderick Murchison, has
written urgent letters to the chief authorities at St. Peters-
burgh. Our own government has also offered every assist-
ance to to the intrepid voyager. Lieutenant Pim will give
• full explanation of his project this evening, at the first
meeting of the Royal Geograph,cal Society.—Morning
Paper.

OPENLNG OF THE SUBMARLNE TELE-

GRAPH.

On Saturday the following important and interest-
* report was presented to the directors of the Submarine
Telegraph Company :
" Gentlemen—ln compliance with your request we beg
to submit the following report of the state of the works of
the submarine telegraph.
" Four protected wires have been laid down between the
South Foreland, on the English coast, and the village of
Sangatto, about four miles from Calais, on the French coast.
The land communication on each side of the channel con-
meting Sangatte with Calais on the one hand, and the
South Foreland with Dover on the other, will be completed
en Tuesday next, the 11th instant.
"Some delay has of necessity occurred in constructing
the works on the English coast, arising from the question
of arrangement and compensation with the different pro-
prietors through whose lands the wires have been carried.
" These arrangements are now made upon fair and
equitable terms, and the telegraph will be brought into a
station on the east side of the town of Dover.
"We have very great pleasure in stating to you that
nothing canbe more perfect than the insulation of the sub-
marine wires, and we must hero beg to record our opinion
of the excellent manner in which these wires were cased
with gotta percha, under the direction of Mr. Statham, the
manager of the Outta Percha Company.
" Since the telegraphic wires were submerged in the
channel last month they have been tested by daily experi-
ments, and notwithstanding the prevalence of the equi-
noctial gales, and the unusual strength of the tides, nothing
has occurred to disturb either their insulation or position on
the two shores.
" We can therefore with confidence recommend that the
telegraph be opened for the public transmission of messages
on Thursday next, the 13th instant.
'. During the progress of these works the French and
English governments have not only expressed themselves
anxious for the success of the undertaking, but have in the
most liberal manner placed steamers of their respective
navies at the disposal of the company.
" We wish to take this opportunity of most respectfully
offering our best thanks to Captain Bullock sad the officers
of her Majesty's steamer Fearless, as well as Captain Arpin
and the ()awe of the French steamer Ariel, for their
cordial co-operation, and the many kind acts we have re-
ceived at their hands.
" To Captain Bullock and Lieutenant Burstill we are
especially indebted for much valuable assistance and advice
in the actual work of laying down the telegraph.
" Indeed, it has been our good fortune in every quarter
to meet with kindness and aid in carrying out what may be
justly termed a work of great importance to our own
nation, and the continent in general.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Nov. 7.
There is a report, which is not yet in general cir-
culation, but which prevails in certain circles, that
the Finance Minister, M. Boclelscwingh, is about
to retire from the ministry, inconsequence of the de-
sign the Cabinet entertains of augmenting the
amount of the military budget, which the Finance
%nista. opposes, as there are no funds at hand for
that purpose, and it would, therefore, necessitate a
loan. I cannot guarantee the truth of this report.
The most important news of to-day is that the
special committee appointed by the
"Frankfort Diet
to consult upon " material interests," or " commer
cial subjects," closed its sittings on the 4th. This
was made known by telegraphic despatch. Thus
the deliberations of these select councillors are
really ended before they had begun, as only three
quite preliminary sittings have been held.
BERLIN, Nov. 8.
Yesterday's number of the Stades .Itrzeiger sum-
mons the Chambers to meet on the 27th inst.
It is certain at present that M. Von Bodelschwingh
has been on the point of retreating front the ministry
in consequence of a difference of opinion with the
Minister of War. The latter wishes to re-organise
in some measure the military force, but the Minister of
Finance refused to resort to a loan, which would have
been necessary, for that purpose. Concord, however,
is again restored to the cabinet. On whose pill
the yielding has been is not yet ascertained. It
is thought that some deeper question than that of
finance was involved in the proposition of the mi-
nister of war, as it is known to be the design of the
government totally, though gradually, to change the
organisation of the army ; in fact, to form a perma-
nent standing army in lieu of the present force,
which every three years is recruited from the cid.
zen population. It is this purpose, lam told, that
M. 130delschwingh so strenuously opposes, though
• finance considerations were the only pretext he
could put forward, to hinder a first beginning to the
realisation of the first projects.

LA PI.ATA.

We abstained from publishing, a few days since,
intelligence from La Plata, which was prominently
put forward here by our contemporaries, and which
announced the defeat :of General Oribo by General
Garzon. This news, purporting to have been re-
ceived at Rio before the ith of September, was
evidently of a less recent date than that received
direct from Monte Video, under date of the Gth of
Septcml
Our

kher.
doubts as to the genuineness of the intelli•
gene arc confirmed by an arrival at Bordeaux, with
dates from Buenos Ayres to the 6th, and Monte
Video to the 9th of September. This arrival brings no
intelligence whatever of Garzon's pretended victory ;
and it is evident that the affair alluded to must have
been the defeat of Oribe's brother and his division,
which took place in the beginning of the campaign,
as already chronicled by us.
The latest accounts, under the above dates, are to
the effect that Paraguay was effectually blockaded,
and affairs stagnant at Buenos Ayres. General Oribe
was still at Cerrito, where all his force was con-
centrated, and Crquiza was only sixty miles off with
all his forms.

WINDING-UP OF JOINT STOCK COMPANIES.

NORTH Or ENGLAND PANKINO CORTANT.-03
Saturday, by special appointment, his Honour, Master
Fairer, proceeded to review his decision, plaeing the exe-
cutors of Mr. John Strattim on the list of contributories as
liable in respect of 700 shares, mull which involves a ques-
tion of the payment of some 36,01)0/. Mr. Field, of the
firm of sharpe, Field, and Jackson, attended for the
estate; and dr. W. 1). Lewis, as counsel for J. and A.
Shanghai', the grandsons of the deceased, and who, having
been empowered by all order of the court above, to take
any proceedings they may think necessary in the name of
the executors, 110 W WCK to ,41 aside the Master's decision.
It appeared in the examination of one of these gentlemen,
that he had been accustomed, in the ordinary course of
business, to sign deeds and documents for his grandfather,
which the latter never saw, but whose verbal authority was'
given for the purimse. In one instance he had signed for his
grandfather in his grandfather's name, and then witnessed
the signature in his own. After a long argument the ease was
adjourned to Thursday, as was another case, that of Miss
Gouthwaite, referred from the court for the Master to de-
cide in what character she is to be on the list in respect of
80 shares, i. e., whether in her individual character, or in
her representative character as testatrix.

ANCE COUrANY.—An official manager is to be appointed

THE POLICE COURTS.

GUILDIIALL.

Robert Forteerue llockrog, a clerk in the employ of a
stockbroker of the name of Colcpshoun, was brought up
for final elimination on various charges of altering and
forging cheques, with intent to defraud Messrs. Martin and
Stone's bank, and of stealing a diamond necklace and other
articles of great value, th• property of hie employer.
The prisoner had carried on a very ingenious system for
some time past, to rob his muter. Having to draw all
cheques prior to their receiving Mr. Colquhoun's signature,
he contrived to leave a space in the writing to allow of the
inserting of the word "twenty" before the amount the
cheque was drawn for, and which he had carried out, also
putting a figure 2 before the first figure in the pounds, and
in every instance of such alteration he succeeded in getting
the cheque cubed. It also was shown that he began at
first with altering the number of shillings, and, finding he
was not detected, he then went on to the pounds. A great
number ol cases were proved in detail, which prisoner rea-
dily admitted, and be was, accordingly, fully committed for
trial.

of Wales's Hotel, Paddington, as was oho the prisoner.
Mr. Ryder went up stairs about twelve o'clock to retire to
rest, and upon looking under his bed he found the
prisoner curled up beneath it like a bell. Ile rang the bell,
upon which the prisoner rushed from the apartment down
stairs. Ile was punned, and ultimately captured by a Mr.
Mitchell on the Paddington Railway-bridge. Mr. Ryder
had in his room cash to the amount of 1121., and bad he
not fortunately espied the prisoner under his bed It. bad no
doubt but he should have been plundered of all his pro-
perty. Other charges were brought forward against the
primmer, who was committed fur trial.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

The news from Denmark is not very distinct or
decided; but it is said that the ministry are agreed
about their programme, and that the King has con-
sented to it. Its chief points are reported to be these :
The constitutional annexation between Schleswig
and Holstein to be discontinued; the consultative
provincial estates to be revived in Schleswig, but
modified according to changed circumstances, by
means of a new law of election, to be based on
liberal principles, excluding the present class elec-
tions; the administrative connexion between Schles-
wig and Holstein to be entirely abolished, the nezus
so-retails to consist only in a common loan fund for the
Ititterschaft of the two duchies; in Holstein the old
provincial estates to be again introduced, end it is to
depend entirely on the will of the King how far these
estates are to undergo any modifications. In the
King's council thereare to betwoministers, responsible
only to the crown, one for Holstein, and the other
for Lauenburg ; and all parts of the Danish king-
dom are to have one common army, fleet, and flag,
consuls, and representatives; customs, commercial
and marine establishments also to be in common
throughout the whole empire.

SPAIN.

The only thing of interest in the Madrid journals
of the 22nd is the report of:the sitting of the Senate
on that day, and that not from any fact of political
importance, but on account of Marshal Narvacz hav-
ing taken his seat for the first time since his return
to Spain. At the very opening of the sitting, the
Marshal rose and "I hasten to explain my vo-
luntary withdrawal from the cabinet to which I had
the honour to belong, and my sudden departure front
Spain, because during my absence the most incorrect
interpretations of my conduct have been given, and
it is necessary for my honour that the truth should
be established." The Marshal then went on
to explain that when he quitted the govern-
ment he enjoyed the complete and absolute
confidence of the crown, and also of the two Cham-
bers, the cabinet having at that period a compact and
imposing majority in both houses. "Long before
quitting the government," added Marshal Narvaez,
" I contemplated doing so, and if, in spite of toy per-
sonal wishes, I retained my post, it wag in compliance
with the wishes of my colleagues. What decided me
to retire was that I saw the impossibility of realising
the plan of economy projected by M. Bravo Murillo,
a plan which I always thought could not be carried
into execution. The state of my health, moreover,
did not permit me to serve my sovereign and my
country with that zeal and devotedness of which I'
hope I have given proofs on more than one occasion,
and I thought it my duty to immediately quit
Madrid, alter my resignation had been accepted,
in order not to be an obstacle in the way of the or-
ganisition of a new cabinet." The marshal, who
throughout the whole of his speech evinced the great-
est spirit of moderation and conciliation, concluded
by saying that he should be always found disposed,
to make every possible sacrifice to support liberal
institutions and the throne of her Majesty Isabella
11., and that it was a duty to remain more than ever
united, for soon perhaps Spain might have to pass
through terrible trials and troublous days. This last
phrase was given very emphatically. The marshal
thanked the Senate for the kind attention with which
it had listened to his explanations, and on conclud-
ing was greeted with loud applause.

BAIL WAYS.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLoct.
The share market to-day has again been very un-
settled. Prices generally opened firm, and a very
marked advance took place in Great Westerns, Man-
chester and bhetfields, and York and North Midlands,
besides others, but a reaction has since occurred,
which is very natural after the late extraordinary
rise, and except iii particular cases, quotations are
now little better than they left off yesterday
afternoon. Caledonians have receded 1!. from
the highest point, North British 10s., South
Eastern., 10s.; Ambergates, 7s. 6d.; Great West-
erns, 1!. This is the day for the final settlement of
the account, which so far appears to have been
effected satisfactorily. The failure of a large "bear"
speculator at Liverpool was announced yesterday
afternoon, and contributed to run up the market.
The Eastern Counties receipts for the week end-
ing the 23rd inst., published this morning, amount
to 13,1011., which shows an increase of 1611. over
corresponding week of last year, when the figure
was 12,940/.
