last week. There was also a decrease in fatal cases
of phthisis. Pneumonia, of inflammation of the sub-

Despatch of Count Rechberg,

VIENNA, March .
The following is an extract from circniAr2l de
'patch forwarded a few dpys ago by Ciount ltechberg
to the representatives of Austria at the Courts of
Governments not involved in Ehe Dario-German
dispute :

"If Danmark had been inclined to make reason-
able concessions war would not have broken out,
and peace would even now be restored if Den-
mark would only consent to those concessions.
Bat she adheres to the formation of a Rigsraad
upon the basis of the Constitution of the 18th No-
vember, and wishes to introduce this Constitution—
against which Germany preteets as in contradiction
to the obligations undertaken by Denmark—into
Schleswig. To prevent the continuation of such an
irregular condition of affairs, the Diet was upon the
point of occupying Schleswig with troops, when
Austria and Prussia hastened to anticipate that
body in their capacity of European Powers, having
to demand of Denmark the fulfilment of certain ob-
ligations not dependent upon the succession in the
Duchies.
"If Austria and Prussia had not rapidly substi-
tuted their action for that of the German middle
States, and if the conduct of aft .irs had passed into
the hands of the party wishing to dismember the
Danish monarchy, hotitilities in Schleswig would
nevertheless have broken out ; the scope of the war
would also have been extended, and the Powers
interested in the preservation of the Danish
monarchy would have been confronted with com-
plications far more threatening to the balance of
Power in the north of Europa. The military inter-
vention of Austria and Prussia has temporarily
Pressed this danger into the background, and would
have completely removed it if the Powers had
credited the last statement of the two great German
oPowers, and had not encouraged Denmark in her
opposition.
"It depends, therefore, upon the non-German
powers to contribute to the tranquillisation of
heated'4 Passions in Germany, and to retain the con-
flict with Denmark upon the ground it at present
Occupies. Austria and Prussia, upon their parts,
Will then the easier succeed in not being over-
Whelmed by the movement prevailing in Germany
task the more difficult the longer the coefliot is
P.rotracted. The deliberations of the Federal Diet
further abundantly show what exertions the Courts
of Vienne and Berlin are compelled to make in
order to prevent their Federal allies from giving
More serious dimensions to the quarrel."

LONDON, THURSDAY, MARCH 24, 1864.

The Conference is reported to have been defini-

tively accepted by the Austrian and Prussian
Governments. Accepted by them without any de-
tailed basis, and, of course, without any prospect

even of an armistice. The intimation that such is
the understanding comes to us ominously together

with rumours of farther and fiercer fighting be-
tween the belligerents before Diippel. Statements
were even put forth freely in• Paris last evening to
the effect that Duppal had been actually carried by
storm at the cost of a very heavy sacrifice of life
both to the assailants and assailed, by the Austro.
Prussians. The veracity of this flying rumour,

however (doubtful at the time of its vacillating

movement hither and thither among the Parisian

newsmongers), has since then been very generally
discredited. Yet, no matter what may chance to be
the veritable situation of things in that part of the
invaded territory—there at Diippel, confronting
each other in arms, are, beyond a doubt of it, the
belligerents. Holstein has long since been com-
pletely overrun by the German soldiery. Schleswig,
saving only one small and comparatively insigni-
ficant portion of the province, has been taken com-
plete possession of by the Austro-Prussians. luso-

much, indeed, has it been seized and monopolised by
them that the Danish functionaries have, one and all

of them, given place to duly appointed subjects of
one or another among the Sovereign houses Cora
posing that Diet, whose capital is Frankfort-on-the•
Maine. Added to which, as a token of the com

pleteness of this Germanic seizure of Schleswig, the

Thomas Howard, 51, Haymarket, said the prisoner and
an " individual" (the prosecutor) came into his house and

knowledge of the watch,

The Osservatore Triestino states that, is case of
refusal by the Danish Cabinet, the two allied Powers
are decided on proceeding in an inexorable (inexor-
abarnente) manner, and the Vienna Gazette de-
clares that they will reject all the reservations and
all the conditions of Denmark,
seeing that the
situation requires a clearly expressed yes or no. If
the Press of Vienna may be believed, there is but
little reason to expect a `favourable reply from
Copenhagen. According to ,that journal, " Den-
mark would be mad to accept an armistice which
would relieve her less from embarrassment than her
adversaries, who, though victorious on the field of
battle are worsted on diplomatic grounds.

BETTING AT ➢IANCHES _"ER-WEDNESDAY.

There was a fair attendance at the Post-office Hotel this
day, and the betting, although not characterised by any
heavy outlay of money, was significant. For the Great
Northamptonshire Stakes Gardener remained firm, and 7
to 1 was scarcely obtainable against him at the break-up o
the rooms. Costa and Touch and Go were rather freely
supported ; and Dollar was backed to win £l,OOO, at 16 to 1.
100 to 3 was accepted about Blithfield to win £6OO, but,
subsequently, 50 to 1 was laid against him. Several horses
were invested on for Earl Spencer's Plate, but the trim-
actions were not important —The betting on Chester Cup
is of a remarkable character. During the afternoon 1,000
t o 15 was laid against Golden Pledge, but finally 20 to 1
would have been taken about the facetiously-styled " lame
'in." Anfield found a backer at 20 to 1; and Oldminster
was in a little demand, at 25 to 1. Closing prices :

HEALTH OP THE METROPOLIS,

(From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.)
The deaths i❑ London, which rose to 1,786 in the
first week of the present month, and declined to
1,664 in the subsequent week, further declined to
1,508 in the week that ended last Saturday. The
average number of deaths in the eleventh week of
the ten years 1851-63 is, with a correction for
increase of population, 1,464; and the actual mor-
tality as shown in the present return is, therefore,
in excess of the estimated amount by 44 deaths.

A great part of the decrease in the last week's
mortality arose, as it appears in the tables, under the
head of bronchitis, the deaths from which declined
from 299 and 280 in the two previous weeks to 193
last week. There war also a decrease in fatal cases
of phthisis. Pneamonie, or inflammation of the sub-
stance of the lungs, has been subject to little fluc-
tuation, and in each of the last five weeks the deaths
from it have been about 100.
About half of the 25 deaths from measles occurred
in the south districts, chitfly in the sub-districts of
Waterloo-road and Lambeth Caul ch. Nine out of
63 deaths from whoopingcough were in Poplar, and
four in the sub-district of St. Peter's, Wulworth.

At 2, Thornton-row, in the subdistrict of Green-
wich west, three deaths from scarlatina in five days ;
and in the same sub-district there were two from
typhus and two from puerperal fever.
On the 2d of March a woman, aged 22 years, died
from " privation and exposure" in the Whitechanel
Workhouse.

At 7 Hatton-street, St. John's, M tryleb one, a
woman is stated to have died on the 15th of March
at the great age of 100 years.
Five persons were recorded in the week as having
been accidentally killed by street carriages.
Last week the births of 1,117 boys and 1,060
girls, in all 2,177 children, were registered in Lon-
don. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years
1854-63 the average number (corrected) was 2,070.
At the Royal Observatory Greenwich, the moan
height of the barometer in the week WrtS 29 801 in.
The reading declined from 30•11 in. on Sunday to
29.50 in. on Saturday. The mean temperature of
the air in the week was 43 deg , which is 1.5 deg.
above the average of the same week in 43 years (as
determined by Mr. Gaisher). The mean daily
temperature was in excess of the average on four
days of the week, and on Monday the excess was
8.2 deg. The highest day temperature was 57'2
deg. un Monday. The toweat night temperature
was 29.9 deg. on Friday. On the last four
nights the thermometer fell below or near the
freezing point of water. The range of temperature
in the week was 27.3 deg. 9he mean daily range
was 16.5 deg. The difference between the mean
dew point temperature and air temperature was
only 7.1 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the
air was 76, complete saturation being represented
by 100. The wind was in the south-west on the
first three days; it then changed to north-east and
south-east, and b'ew from the east on the last two
days. The rain was only 0.061 n.

GENERAL GARIBALDI.—GeneraI Garibaldi, who
has left Caprera, it is supposed, for England, has
intimated his intention to visit Newcastle-on-Tyne, and
renew his acquaintance with the Tyneside people if he
comes to England. Ten years ago the General was in com-
mand of the merchant ship Commonwealth, and came into
the Tyne to take in a cargo of coals for Genoa, At that
time, while avoiding a public demonstration, ha was fami-
liar to the inhabitants of the seaports of the Tyne, and was
presented by the working men with a sword.
