regulations by means of which a basis is gained for
taking into account the true requirements of the
country.
" Holding aloof from the exercise of a decisive
policy, I am inspired solely by the desire of remain-
ing a stranger to all party intrigues, of striving in-
cessantly to develope the prosperity of the country,
and, strengthened by the confidence of the popula-
tion, of meeting the justly founded wishes of the
people.
(Signed) " GABLENZ, Lieut. Field-Marshal.
" Altona, Sept. 15."

The regulations alluded to in the Austrian Gover-
nor's proclamation are an order for the issue of an
official gazette for Holstein. A second order says:—
" In connection with my proclamation of to-day,
notifying my assumption of the chief administration
in the Duchy of Holstein, I order as follows :
" 1. A governmental board shall be established
for the entire administration of the Duchy of Hol-
stein, which shall commence its functions from the
15th inst., under the name of the Ducal Holstein
Land Government, and shall have its seat in the
town of Biel.

‘"
2. The Land Government shall be subordinate
to the Austrian Governor of the Duchy of Holstein,
and shall, subject to the- limitations expressed in
sec. 3, take charge of all branches of the adminis-
tration which formerly appertained to the confi-
dence of the Schleswig-Holstein Land Government
at Gottorff, the Schleswig-Holstein Taxes and Tele-
graph Departments at Kiel, and the Schleswig-
Holstein Postal Department at Kiel.
"3. Business thus belonging to the competence
of the Land Government shall be treated and settled
by it independently in accordance with the existing
laws and regulations, subject to the following re-
strictions :—The decision of the Austrian governor
of Holstein is reserved ; a. Upon all matters which
have hitherto required the decision of the sovereign ;
b. Upon matters bearing upon the constitution of
the Duchies ; c. Upon the issue of legal prescrip-
tions, in so far as the right of so doing has not been
already conferred upon other authorities ; d. Upon
sentence and mitigation of punishments, except as
to fines that may be remitted by the Land Govern-
ment according to existing laws ; e. Upon the sus-
pension and ' appointment of officials, clergy, and
teachers, in so far as the privilege was vested in the
preceding Ministry for Holstein ; f. Upon granting
sums in excess of the annual budget, as upon the
individual application of the amounts included un-
der the head of extraordinary expenses ; g. Upon
granting allowances and assistance moneys, with
the exception of such smaller allowances, up to a
maximum of 200 marks, as may be granted from
the support fund by the Land Government at its
discretion ; h. Upon the chief control over the
police, press affairs, and public meetings ; i. Upon
the chief control of the postal and telegraphic sys-
tems. The Governor further reserves to himself
the right of issuing orders and cheques upon the
Treasury at Rendsburg. The Land Government
has, lastly, in all affairs common to the Duchies
of Schleswig-Holstein, to report to the Governor,
after first coming to an understanding with the chief
governmental authorities in Schleswig.

"4. The Land Government shall consist of a
president and five heads of departments. In the
absence of the president, the senior head of a de-
partment shall fulfil his duty. The division of the
different branches of public business into depart-
ments, and the manner in which they are to be car-
ried on will be settled by special order.
" 5. Appeals against decisions and orders of the
Land Government shall be made to the governor."
A third order treats of the division of public
business above alluded to, and says

" 1. Public business shall be divided as fullows
among the five departments of the Ducal Holstein
Land Government : a. The first department in-
cludes clerical matters and education, the affairs of
the University, science, and the arts, the de,af
and dumb institution, the lunatic asylum in ScEles-
wig, and charities ; matters appertaining to the ad-
ministration of justice, including the management of
prisons and penitentiaries, matters of land sove-
reignty and frontier, general affairs relating to the
estates, to convents for the nobility, and to the
affairs of the Schleswig-Holstein knighthood, to
statistics, wrecks, and the promulgation of decrees
and orders in the official gazette ; b. The second de-
partment comprises matters relating to the com-
munes and to the poor, trade, commerce, weights
and measures, the press, and rights of association,
medical and veterinary affairs, the fire insurance
system, and agriculture ; c. The third department
manages roads and public ways, railroads, dykes,
drainage, harbours, and, buildings, commercial and
navigation matters, the Schleswig-Holstein canal,
and the irrigation system, conscription, quartering
of troops, furnishing provisions in kind to garrisons,
transport of war material, general equalisation of
war expenses and claims for damages caused by war ;
d. The fourth department takes in hand direct taxa-
tion, including the duties on stamped paper and
upon heirship, the right of free conveyance, matters
relating to agriculture. Crown lands, forests, and
the chase, as well as the revision and decision upon
direct taxes ; e. The fifth department includes the
finances (budget, State revenue, and debts), the
widows' funds, pensions, grants, and support
moneys, the customs, postal, and telegraphic
systems, with the control over the support fund of
the Land Government and the sums placed at its
disposal for office expenses.
" 2. Each department shall retain the right of re-
vision as to the method of keeping accounts in the
branches appertaining to its competence, and until
further notice the head of the fourth department
shall act as general supervisor of direct taxation,
including the duties upon stamped paper and heir-
ships.
"3. The president shall control the method in
which public business shall be carried on, and exer-
cise disciplinary authority over the officials of the
Land Government, in so far as they are legally
amenable to the control of the authorities.

"4. Each head of the department shall exercise
authority over the different branches within his
competence upon his own responsibility, indepen-
dently under his own signature, and with the coun-
ter-signature of the chief of the bureau, except over
such matters as are reserved in the ensuing para-
graph for the deliberations of a college, or which,
being purposed by the president as advisable, shall
be considered by the head of the department as fit-
ting to be laid before the college.
"4. All more important matters are reserved for
the deliberations of a college, in which the chair-
man shall give the casting-vote where the votes are
equal. To these appertain opinions and reports
upon normal subjects, or on questions of principle,
decisions upon admission or denial of rights, with
the imposition of penalties.
"6. Should the President find any resolution
arrived at by the college contrary to law, or danger-
ous to the commonweal, he is bound to suspend its
execution, and to report thereupon, adducing his
reasons to the Governor without delay.

_
The following heads of departments are ap-
polo
• ted members of the new Land Government :
Department I. is placed under the care of Councillor
E. Lesser, hitherto a member 'of the Schleswig-
Holstein Land Government ; Department 11., of
Count van Stemann, member of the hithorto exist-
ing Government; Department IV., of F. M. Wen-
neker, hitherto member of the Land Government ;
Department V., of Finance-director W. Lesser, also
hitherto member of the Land Government. The
name of the head of the third department will be
subsequently announced."

phic systems appertain to the jurisdiction of the
Ducal. Holstein Land Government, the customs office
being under the management of G. C. P. Kirchhoff
at-Kiel, the post-office under G. Struve in Kiel, the
