SAXONY AND SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

The Paris papers publish the latest despatches
exchanged between Mr. Murray, the, English
Minister in Dresden, and Baron von Benst, the
Saxon President of the Council, upon the Schleswig-
Holstein question :

MR. MURRAY TO BARON VON BEUST.
Dresden, Jan. 5, 1864.

I have the honour to inform your Excellency that I
have just received a despatch from Earl Russell, in which
he communicates to me the views of her Britannic
Majesty's Government on the position of affairs in
the duchy of Holstein. Her Majesty's Government be-
lieves that the most serious consequences might arise if
the Federal troops should invade Schleswig before the
Powers who signed the Treaty of London have been able
to express their opinion on this matter. In the opinion of
the English Government not only the resolution of the
Federal Diet, but also justice, has been violated by the con-
duct of the German troops in Holstein.
"Bavaria, Saxony, and Wurtemberg must be made
mutually responsible. Although I did not receive instruc-
tions to communicate the contents of this despatch to your
Excellency, I nevertheless consider myself bound to do so,
for if the Saxon Government feels inclined to take into
account the advice of the Government of her Britannic
Majesty in an affair which is of the highest importance for
all Europe, there is no time to lose, as the progress of affairs
in the Duchies is of such a nature that all the steps taken
by the English Government to preserve peace between the
German Confederation and Denmark might possibly be
frustrated by the events of a single day.
" Receive, &c., '• Cx. A. MURRAY."
