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 28:h of January last, the Cham-
ber, acknowledging it to bo inadvisable, under the ex-
isting circumstances, to adopt the proposed address,
dec'des 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
RusslA, 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 tbeir
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 rowers 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 PACIIA has irritated the Sur.TAN,
and that ABDUL-MEDJID sent it back to the Grand
Visir with an annotation in the margin, to the effect
that "he could not, be ought not, and he would not
consent to give up the point relative to the Tanzimat."
It 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 ypt, end it was not
Eg
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 Me4jclio
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 works on the section of the railway between
Alexandria and Damauhour had been at last
ast com-
menced, although but little has been don
however, shows that the enterprise has not been
'abandoned. •
The Duke DE LEUCRTENBURG was expected at
Alexandria on the 7th March, and
was immediately
to embark in the French steamer, the
Marseilles.

THE NORTHAMPTON MEETING, &c.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SU2

SlR,—Singular to relate, the present meeting at
Northampton seems very likely to pass away without
giving the Ring tha benefit, of a few heavy showers of
rain, a circumstance that has not oecurrtd, to my know-
ledge, for the last seven or eight years. The course is
very hard, and very likely to give the tender-footed
ones a slight shaking. My accounts received up to
eleven o'clock this morning advise me that the following
will be the fields for to-morrow's races:—

Earl Spencer's Plate—The Prime Minister, Heart-
breaker, Thornhill, Forrester, Layburne, Serus, Colt by
Prince ('aradoc, Lady Agnes (d), Timid Fawn, Free-
dom, Water Lily, Butterfly, filly by Ballinkeele out of
Dar', and gelding by Don John, dam by Priam.
Catalpa is us yet the only declared nonstarter.
The Althorp Park Stakes—King David, Balloon,
Stone Plover (d), Nathan, colt by Assault, dam by
Lanercost, Pobtulanr, Rumour,. Sister to Iracnadus,
Altitude, Glonavon, and perhaps one or two others of no
account whatever. Whaleb,:ne, Gossip, Molasses, and
Heliogabalus are on the missing list.
Northamptonshire Cup Stakes—Clothworker,
Abdal-
lab, Milkboy (d), Brother to Willingham, Paddy Bird,
and Pancake. Chief Justice and Mark Tapley, I believe,
do not run.

Delapre Stakes—Black Doctor, Incurable, trinket
(d), Edward of York, Paddy Bird (d), Harnbletonian,
Loophole, and Tumbler.
Innkeepers' Plate—Ballet Girl, Milkboy (d), Aria (d),
rochibars, and Passion colt.
My opinion on the,A.lthorp Park Stakes I can render
more poaitive than before, by stating that there is little
doubt but that Nat on GLENAVON will catch the judges'
eye first, and that Altitude and the Assault colt will be
the nearest in 'attendance.
Not knowing'whether CLOTHWOEHER is to be the
TIIOII-037 LOls© tOr.ihe-Vokip-StiaL‘Atiio6lr) his ahsenc!l
must-look to Paricake or -Nast Bird ittr the -winner;
and txr,ect to see Brother to close tip.
The Innkeepers' Plate I consider a foregone conclusion
in favour of FocuanEue or Ba.uxr the former
for choice.

I am still of the opinion I expressed on Monday with
respect to Earl Spencer's Plate. preferring the PRIME
MINISTER, with all his weight, to the crack Dart filly or
Freedom; but as he has shown specimens of want of
heart on several occasions latterly, if ho should be des-
tined to be beaten, I fancy it will be by the Prince Ca-
radoc colt or Freedom, and that the foremost portion of
the rest will consist of Timid Fawn and the Dart filly.
The betting this morning is brisk, the principal busi-
ness being on to-day's events, which I need not record.
The prices on to-morrow's races rule as follow:—De-
lapre Stakes-2 to 1 agat Paddy Bird, 3 to 1 agst the
Black Doctor. Earl Spencer's Plate-3 to 1 agat Free-
dom, 5 to 1 agst Dart filly; 6 to 1 agat Layborne; 6 to 1
agst Prince Caradoc colt, 7 to 1 agat the Prime Minister,
7 to 1 agat Thornbill, 8 to 1 agst Heartbreaker, 8 to 1 agat
Timid Fawn, 10 to 1 agst Forester, 10 to 1 agst Butter-
fly, 50 to 1 agat Catalpa. Althorp Park Stakes-2 to 1
agst Glenavon, 3 to 1 and 5 to 2 taken freely; little or
nothing doing about any other; Rumour and Assault
colt talked about, 10 to 1 would be taken about either;
10 to 1 offered agst the Fyfield couple. Cup Stakes-
-3 to 1 each agst Pancake and Brother to Willingham;
nothing else mentioned. Innkeepers' Plate-3 to 1
each agst Foobabero and Ballet Girl, taken freely; 5 to 1
any other.

Through the imperfect caligrapby of my "man of
business," a most ridiculous mistake occurred in yester-
day's note in reference to the Whittlebury Stakes, which
made out that Early Bird, who has been dead some time,
was a starter and backed at 10 to 1; it should have been
King David who is the starter in question, and who was
supported at 10 to 1 to a good bit of money.
