regarded this as a somewhat important meeting. They had
worked patiently, and now presented an honest dividend of
24 per cent. (Applause.) This was satisfactory, and it
had been achieved without taking unfair advantage of any
company. He hoped by persistence in the same policy they
would obtain still more encouraging results in future time.

Immediately the flag was lowered the favourite went to
the front, having a slight lead of Stanton, who was followed
by Guerilla and Blondin, in whose wake were Limosina,
Fisherman's Daughter, and Guillaume le Taciturne. In
these positionsthey ran to the turn out of the straight, where
Stanton ran up to the favourite, the pail descending the hill
side by aide, each racing for the lead. On reappearing from
behind the clump, the leading pair were seen in the wake
of Guerilla, who, as they commenced the hill, took a de-
cided lead, Blondin, with Mr Stevens's filly at his girths,
lying next, with the Freneh representative and Limosina
closing up. As they neared the brow of the hill the pace
slackened considerably, which enabled the rear division to
close up, and as they rounded the turn for home a sheet
would have covered the seven; but shortly after Thalestris
once again brought her colours to the front, to the no little
satisfaction of her patrons, who were uproarious in their
exclamations of the probable success of their favourite, but

e the Federal troops from the Duchies of iio
stein and Lauenburg, ana for reconstituting the
Federal contingent of the Duchie3 without modi-
fying in any way the present administration. The
right of the Diet over those two Duchies is
incontestable. It is Count de rteehber.s. who com-
municated officially to the Cabinet of Copenhagen
the conditions under which the two German Powers
were ready to open negotiations .)f peace. The jour-
nals publish a letter addressed by a M. Schramm to
the inhabitants of the Duchies, in which he openly
advocates the incorporation of the latter with the
Prussian monarchy. M. Schramm, who was for..
merly a republican, but deserted his party to join
the reaction, thus continues at Berlin the propa-
gandism for Prussia which forced him some time
back to quit the Duchy of Sleswig."

THE OCCUPATION OF RENDSBURG.

BERLIN, July 26.

The official Stoats-Anziger of today publishes
the following communication, which it states to be
derived from a well informed source

I have announced to you my jcurney to Constan-
tinople, to strengthen the autonomy n;' the country
by a new international undorstandini?. liy hones
end your hopes ere rtalisEd. his Itj:?cjosi-y the Sul-
tan, our illue:rious sovereign, and tilt- guaranteeing
powers, have recoguised the new .im,litutions of
Roumania created by the plebiscite of the 10th.
(22d) to the 14th (26th) May. From the documents
I now publish and bring to your knowledge you will
gain the conviction that the existence and the fun-
damental basis of the new institutions voted by the,
nation are neither endangered nor changed by tIA
alterations to which I have consented in agreement
with the Sublime Porte and with the assent of the
collective guaranteeing powers. These modifica-
tions, however, are merely provisional ; they
may be supplemented and completed Dy the legisla-
tive bodies in their approaching session. For, Ron-
mans, I declare to you, and you will y ourselves
admit, that Roumania only enters upon its full au-
tonomy from this day, as contained in our ancient
agreements concluded with the Porte and guarans
teed by the Treaty of Paris.

" In the contact which has occasionally taken
place between members of the allied army and of
the Federal executive division stationed in Holstein,
an irritated feeling has for some time past been ob-
servable, which finds explanation, if not excuse, in
the situation in which the Saxon and Hanoverian
troops have been placed by the policy of their Go-
vernments since February of the present year. Far-
ther, it is well known that the Federal commanders
were in many instances compelled by their special
instructions to annoy the allied army both when ad-
vancing against the enemy and actually engaged,
by all kinds of trivial formalities, refusal of quarters,
&c., and thereby to obstruct its efficiency. At the
same time it is readily acknowledged that, so far as
we are aware, everything was done upon the part of
Lieut.-General von Hake, the commander-in-chief
of the Federal division in Holstein, to render those
obstructions as little disadvantageous as possible to
the allied army, notwithstanding the instructions
of the Diet. On the other hand, it is also not to
be denied that the Hanoverian troops in especial—
and we regret to say we cannot entirely acquit the
officers—expressed their annoyance, fully intelli-
gible to every military man, at the unpleasant
position in which they were placed by the sin-
gular policy of their Government, by turning
their ill humour against the members of the vie-
torious allied army. These troops hod, on the con-
trary, the very best claims to the sympathies of
their German companions in arms, and would un-
questionably have greeted their Saxon and Hano-
verian comrades with hearty joy if it had been
granted to the latter to take part in the conflict
against Denmark, in place of carrying out a long
since objectless execution in forced inactivity in
Holstein. A to some extent official expression of
the dislike prevailing towards the allied armyamong
the Hanoverians was first received by the occur-
rences at Rendsburg upon the 29th June.
The greatest astonishment and most intense an-
noyance were justly aroused, not only among the
public, but also in the allied army, when it was
seen from the newspapers that the Hanoverian
Lieut.-Colonel Dammers, at that time Federal com-
mandant of Rendsburg, had thought proper to have
the flags of the allied army, hoisted by a private
individual among other flags in his joy at the cap-
ture of Alsen, hauled down by a patrol. It is un-
necessary to discuss here how far the commandant
was right with that individual, and ought perhaps
to have made him accountable for his act ; but he
ought never to have permitted himself so gravely to
insult an allied army, bleeding from fresh wounds
after recent victory, by the forcible removal and
confiscation of its flags. The commander-in-chief
of the allied army was therefore unquestionably
fully justified, after receiving an official report of
the occurrence, and finding it in the main to con-
firm statements of the newspapers, in applying
forth with to Lieutenant-General von Hake with the
demand that Lieutenant-Colonel Dammere should
be relieved of his post as commandant of Rends-
burg, and that this measure should then be notified
to the commander-in-chief of the allied army.
Lieutenant-General von Hake thereupon gave

This autonomy has been until now practically
obstructed in many respects. A proof of this was
afforded by Appendix No. U. to the convention
viz., the electoral law—which could not be altered
without foreign assent.

Now, upon the other hand, the high powers, i•A
consideration of our ancient rights and the Treaty
of Paris, by which Europe took our political exiat
ence under her protection, have sanctioned our
ternal autonomy in its full extent. At the head .of
the document by which the new institutions of
Roumania are recognised, the Sublime Porte, in
conjunction with the guaranteeing powers, has
written those words—" The united principalities
are in future at liberty to change and modify the
laws affecting their internal administration, with
the legal participation of the collective authorities,
established by the State." From this day forth.,,
therefore, and only from this day forth, the Rou .
man nation takes possession of its autonomy—free n
this time forth it may alter and improve its intern al
institutions without foreign intervention.
Roumans, the future is oar own. May the con fi-
dance of the nation in its chosen head become s till
greater, that we may recover the time lost—teat
our beloved country may rapidly rejoice in the
fruits of its patience and sacrifices, and the Rournan
nation may in this manner recover the place to
which it is entitled in the grcat European family
of peoples. Let us, then, warmly greet the new Le.
gislative Chambers which are summoned to develop
our laws and public liberties, while regarding ova.
ancient ties to the Sublime Porte, and preserving
the fundamental principles of the convention of Hee
7th (19th) August, 1858, so that the internal con -
stitution of Roumania may be further built up upon
solid foundations. Long live Roumania.

the required satisfaction, and informed H.R.H.
Prince Frederick Charles that he bad ordered
Lieutenant-Colonel Dimmers to bo superseded.
It is probable that this occurrence is intimately
connected with the gross excesses which were com-
mitted a few days later—the 17th and 18th—
against Prussian soldiers by Hanoverian non-com-
missioned officers and men. Street riots arose out
of a soldiers' fight in a dancing-house, to all apr
pearance previously concerted. Prussian sentinels
were grossly insulted, and even the hospitals dis-
turbed by stone throwing and threats against the
wounded and sick; even on the night of the 18th,
three Hanoverian officers not on duty drew their
swords upon a Prussian patrol to effect the libera-
tion of a Hanoverian con-commissioned officer who
had attacked a sectihel.
These occurrences required the most speedy satis-
faction. The commander-in.chief of the allied army
could not permit members of the forces to be further
exposed, at an important station, to insults dictated
by envy and hatred, and the repose of the badly
wounded and sick to be again disturbed by similar
tumults. Mejer-General von Goeben therefore re,
ceived orders to move into Rendsburg with a cow-

bined brigade upon the 21st, and to make himself
master of the place.
This order was carried into effect at neon of the
day speeihed. A Prussian commandant was ap-
pointed, and the posts were occupied by Prussian
troops. The Federal garrison which has hitherto
occupied Rendsburg voluntarily evacuated the plac2
before the entrance of the Prussians, and occupied
some of the villages lying south of the town in the
course of the forenoon. We understand, further,
that his Royal Highness Prince Frederick Charles
communicated the arrangement made to General
von Hake by letter on the 21st. General von Hake
protested against the entrance of the Prussian
troops, and is reported to have added a second
formal protest by order of the Federal Diet. We
fully admit the extreme unpleasantness and diffi-
culty of the position in which the Federal troops
in Holstein have been placed since the commence.
meat of the year by the fault of their Govern•
ments, and we can understand that the most
recent consequences of the deplorable excesses
in Rendsburg have rendered this position
almost unbearable to military feeling. An army,
however, in front of the enemy cannot allow itself
to be insulted with impunity in its rear, and was
unable to permit its efficiency to be injured by the
possible repetition of excesses at an important
station, by its connection with its base being cut off,
and by the quiet of its sick and severely wounded
being threatened. Those who have placed the
Federal troops in so false a position must take the
responsibility of the present situation.

ST. GEORGE FOR MERRY ENGLAND,—It appears
that the Vintage Wino Company have been com-
pelled, through the Times, frequently to caution the public
against certain houses who attempt to sell as genuine an
imitation of the company's celebrated XeresComida Sherries.
It is not, however, is sherry only that colourable imita-
tions have taken place, for the company have felt it neces-
sary to announce that, while their brand for all sherries is
the Spanish arms, no champagne sold as the Vintage
Champagne is genuine unless the cork bears the name of
the company, surrounding a shield on which is impressed a
