The Prince and Princess of Wales in

Denmark.

COPENHAGEN, Wednesday.
Whether with or without a shadow of founds•

tion, the Danes are persuaded that the negotiations
with Germany are on the point of being broken off,
and that a recurrence to hostilities may be looked

for in consequence. They further entertain the
opinion that the understanding between Austria
and Prussia is no longer so cordial as it formerly
was, and s )eak with confidence of being able to en-

counter either of their previous antagonists single.
handed. These views are almost universally cur,

rent among the officers of the fleet, but the better
opinion is that they are traceable only to Stock
Exchange rumours. The deputations from North
Schleswig, of which there have already been se-
veral, and several more are yet to come, prove that
the Danish population in the Duchies, at any rate,
is not charmed with the near view it has had of the
German " deliverers." The tone of the last address

presented to ,the King is, under the circumstances
of an actual military occupation, remarkably out-
spoken, and the veryforce of the language employed
shows how deeply the national feeling must have
been stirred, when the ordinary impassiveness of
Danish nature has been replaced by the passion
vented in the following appeal ;
_ _

" Most Gracious King,—With the sword over their
heads, and the prospect or being delivered up by the enemy's
power to pestilence (Folkader), the North Schleswigers
approach the throne with their cry of distress for rescue
from the dangers with which they are threatened. Clu,hed
to death by the heel of a powerful foe, and without a word
of encouragement from our Sovereign or his Government,
we have alone and silenced been compelled to bear the disas-
ters of war, its bitter disappointments and horrible terrors,
while the Germans joyfully proclaim all Schleswig to be a
country German by inclination. Never, up to this moment,
has the hope deserted us that all may yet end well, if we
but s'eadfastly bold out.
" Most gracious King, the hope is still strong within our

hearts that we cannot possibly be separated from Denmark,

and notwithstanding the steps taken by your Majesty
towards peace, which have stricken us with grief and terror,
still we cling to the belief that the King cannot possibly
cast us off. Sincere love for Denmark and sincere devoted-
ness towards the person of the King have ever been ono and
the same thing in North Schleswig. Yes, we bear witness
in the sight of your Majesty and the world that it is a

Danish inclined people that inhabits the tract of country be-
tween Kongear and Flensburg, a people who have ever re-
mained loyal, though kept by the enemy under lock and
key.
"We bear witness that Danish hearts beat in North
Schleswig which groan under the thought that they are to
be abandoned to their sworn enemy—hearts whose inner-
most life is a Danish life, and which in grief look forward
to the hour when they will be broken- by the burdens of a
foreign yoke. Notwithstanding how hard it has been to
many of as to reconcile ourselves to the thought of a parti-
tion of Schleswig, still this is far preferable to onr abandon-
ment to the power of the Germans.
"Most gracious King, in the throes of death wo cling to
the throne and to the people, and we cannot, 'neither will

we, believe that the Danish King or the Danish people are
willing to sever their own members, their own flesh and
bloo I, as long as there is an army that can fight, and an un-
vanquished fleet to Denmark.
" Although there is but a small number of men whose
names appear here, still wo must beg to assure your Ma-
jesty that we speak from the hearts of the Northern
Schleswigers, and that circumstances alone prevent our
having thousands of signatures to this most humble
address."

This address was got up and signed in the wes
of North Schleswig, but representatives from the
east also came forward ; and it is known that ad-
dresses of a like character are on their way from
Schleswig.
The Dagblad is of course dissatisfied with the
existing state of things; it cannot comprehend
what it calls the apathy of the nation about the
Conference at Vienna, not having succeeded ap-
parently in convincing itself to the entire helpless-
ness of the Danish State at this moment. The solu-
tion which it contemplates for all the Danish
troubles is a plebiscite in Schleswig-Holstein, for-
getting that according to this form of voting the
will of the majority binds, and that the minority of
Danes, if attached to Germany by a popular vote,
would feel just as dissatisfied and uncomfortable in
their new position as if their fate had been decided
across a council table. One remarkable sentence
occurs in this paper, a propos of the possible
alliance with Russia :—" Should a marriage be
effected between the Grand Duke of Russia and the
Princess Dagmar, it will be almost impossible for
the Czar to allow the separation of the Duchies
from Charles IX. ; because a Russian marriage
is not, like an English marriage, a mere con-
nection of families,—it is a political event, lead-
ing to practical political consequences." That the
Dagblad is not always
prudent in its tone every-
body admits, but there is something really to be ad-
mired in the audacity
of this speculation, which is
gravely fitted into a long article directed against the
Ministry. Assuming the marriage to have actually
taken
ment itself ; but it is scarcely the custom to hasten
place, there might be something in the argu-
the decision of an undeclared suitor by conjectures as
to what he will do for his wifa's relations.
Wherever he has gone in Denmark the Prince of
Wales has won golden opinions from all those with
whom he came in contact. At Fredensborg one
hears nothing but delighted expressions as to the
charm of manner and kindly feeling of the English
Crown Prince; but it was with the officers and men
composing the Danish fleet that his principal success
appears to have been gained. In the course of his
visit to the Admiral's ship, and also to the Danne-
brog, on the occasion when the royal party drove to
Kronborg Castle, his R)y al Highness exhibited such
an intimate acqugintance with nautical affairs and
with the various details of the service that the Danes
became persuaded it was he, and not Prince Alfred
who had passed so much of his time at sea. And
since then the newspapers, misled by the undress
uniform of a general officer which the Prince of
Wales wore in tha; instance, have gravely an-
nounced that the Crown Prince, in the full uniform
of an English Admiral, passed in review the Danish
fleet.
