DENMARK.

The Cologne Gazette confirms the fact of Den-
mark, on the recommendation of the Great Powers
—which are desirous, above all things, of prevent-
ing the complications which would arise from a
federal execution—having consented to make grad
great concessions with regard to the demands of
Germany. The Diet of Frankfort has put off its
vacation in order to settle this affair, which, in
truth, admits of no delay. As to the question
whether Denmark will take advantage of existing
' circumstances to incorporate Schleswig, a ministerial
journal of Copenhagen affirms that such is not the
intention of the Danish cabinet, but that if Schles.
wig herself should demand a more intimate union
with the kingdom, the latter will not make any
objection. The same journal contradicts the state.
ment that the Danish cabinet has entered, with
other powers, into the formal engagement to
renounce any partial or absolute incorporation.

Advicea from Turin state that the Hungarians
who were in that capital are gradually dispersing, a fact
which indicates that there is no idea of undertaking any.
thing in that quarter this year. Two sons of Kossuth, who
are engineers, are said to have taken situations in a railway
oonipany.
The Marquis Camille Caracciolo di Bella, who
has just left Turin to present to the court of Portugal the
notification of the accession of Victor Emmanuel as King
of Italy is not only a deputy but a literary man, and
a Miami of long standing. Ile is the descendant of
Duke de Caracciolo, who was hanged in 1799 from the yarl.
arm of his own vessel.

The National Institute of Geneva has just pub.
lished the programme of an agricultural exhibition which
is to be held in that city in the early part of October. The
farmers of the department of Haute-Savoie, as well as thoie
of the arroudisseruent of Gex, will be admitted to exhibit on
the same conditions as the Swims.

A letter from Baden of the 18th says :—" Becker
displays the greatest calmness and tranquillity; be deeps
well, and has a good appetite. He declares that according
to his political convictions he could not have acted other-
wise than he has done. He gives the idea of being a fairly
educated man, and in hie examination has answered with
great frankness and sincerity. He pandits in armerting that
he had no accomplice. His trial will take place before a
jury at Bruchaal. He may be condemned to death, but it
a not certain whether according to the existing laws be will
be so. Under any circumstances, the general opinion is
that the King of Prussia will not allow him to be ex.
ecuted."

INUNDATION OP rim RHINE.—The Gazette de
Lausanne states that the Rhine hits overflowed and inns.
dated the Rheinthal. The districts of &lets and Senn•
weld have suffered by the giving way of a dyke, but mod
&savage has been done in the Rapt. district. On the
morning of the 7th inst. the Rhine had risen higher than at
any vend since 104—some say since 1817.
THE EUPHRATES VALLEY ROUTE TO INDIA.—It

la not too much to say that there is no existing or projected
railroad that can for a moment compare, in point of intend
and importance, with that of the Euphrates Valley. It
brings two quarters of the globe into juxtaposition, aged
three continents—Europe, Asia, and Australia—into co.
relation. It binds the vast population of Hiodestan by sa
iron link with the people of Europe ; it inevitably entails
the colonisation and civilisation of the great valleys of the
Euphrates and Tigris, tho resuscitation in a modern shape
of Babylon and Nineveh, and the reawakening of Ctesiphon
and Bagdad of old. It will also settle the mail route to and
from Australia and China—an element of prosperity of very
great importance—fur the passenger traffic from the
Australian (release' exceeds one hundred weekly, and
ere the railway can be completed will be five times that
number, of whom more than half will take the shortest
route ; while the number of emigrants from this country
who will prefer a passage of 40 to over $0 days may also
be fairly expected to be very large. Like most of the
other railways for which India is indebted to Mr. Audrey,
this line from Seleucia to Jabot Castle, though complet. is
itself, is reganled by him as the parent of further lines,
whose construction will depend on the success of the parent
line, and will gradually lessen the distance between the
Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf.—Loadon and CAI h 4
