DENMARK.

The Ministry have successfully passed through
the Parliamentary crisis, the Opposition in the Diet
having concluded not to pass the address of non-con-
fidence, in consequence of the explanations made by
the Ministry with regard to the great dangers of a
change of Ministry under the present critical and
unsettled relations of the country. Both Chambers
have set aside the address and adopted, on the 16th
inst., by large majorities, the following resolution:—
" Resolved, that though entertaining apprehensions
with regard to the carrying out of the principles of the
Royal manifesto of the 28th of January last, the Cham.
ber, acknowledging it to be inadvisable, under the ex-
isting circumstances, to adopt the proposed address,
decides to proceed with the discussion of the order of
the day."
The Diet having thus decided not to resist the
policy proclaimed in the Royal manifesto of the 28th
of January, all the obstacles which have hitherto
been in the way of the definitive settlement of the
Danish question, both with respect to the constitu-
tional organization of the country and the arrange-
ment of the succession, may be regarded as removed.
With respect to the succession, the choice of an
English Prince—one of Queen VICTORIA'S younger
sons—has lately been proposed by some of the Danish
papers. The choice of a successor to the Danish
Crown cannot, however, be regarded as any longer
open. The House of Hesse and the Emperor of
RUSSIA, whose eventual rights to the succession in
different parts of the present monarchy interfered
with the establishment of a common law of succes-
sion for the whole country, have renounced all their
claims and pretensions expressly and solely in favour
of Prince CHRISTIAN of Holstein- Glucksburg as suc-
cessor to the sovereignty over the whole monarchy;
and this choice has met the approval of all the great
Powers. The choice of Prince CHRISTIAN is emi-
nently a " Danish" choice, and perhaps the only one
that could be made as satisfactory both to Denmark and
to all the great Powers. The choice of any Prince be-
longing to one of the reigning families among the
great Powers would be certain to meet with the op-
position of the rest of those Powers.
The prorogation of the Danish Diet is expected to
take place on the 20th inst. The Diet will meet
again in October.

EGYPT.
Intelligence has been received from Alexandria to
the 7th instant.
Nothing has been decided relative to the Turco-
Egyptian question. It appears certain that the last
letter of ABBAS PACHA has irritated the SULTAN,
and that ABDUI•MEDJID sent it back to the Grand
Visir with an annotation in the margin, to the effect
that "he could not, he ought not, and he would not
consent to give up the point relative to the Tanzimat."
If is, in consequence, supposed that the next letter to
the VICEROY will be of a menacing character, and
will order him absolutely to obey the decision of the
Porte. The representations of Sir S. CANNING are
not looked on as serious. The other legations abstain
altogether. The VICEROY has just returned to Cairo,
from his excursion to Upper Egypt, and it was not
yet known what effect the last news from Constanti-
nople had on him.
On the 29th February four Pachas had arrived at
Alexandria from Constantinople, in the Meeljdie
steamer. It was said that they were proceeding to
Mecca, and that they were charged to land a letter
to the VICEROY on their way. They at once set out
for Cairo.

The Duke DE LEUCHTENBURG was expected at
Alexandria on the 7th March, and was immediately
to embark in the French steamer, the Osiris, for
Marseilles.

The American Minister had an interview with Lord
