BA V ARIA.

MuNictr, OCT. 31.—The Opposition in the Cham-
ber have adopted the project for founding an alliance
against Austria and Prussia between the secondary
German states, in order that the latter may shake
off the domination with which they are threatened
by the two larger pomers.—Frankfort Gazette of
Nov. 2.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES

According to the Independance of Brussels pre-
parations tor war are now being actively engaged in
in Schleswig-Holstein, and nearly all hope of a
pacific solution at the conclusion of the armistice is at
an end. It is, however (says the Independance),
considered doubtful whether the German powers
will again intervene on behalf of the Duchies, so
that they will have to stand alone against Denmark.

ENGLAND, RUSSIA, AND
TURKEY.

We yesterday announced that the French semi-
official journal, the Patrie of Saturday, contained a
paragraph which stated that the Emperor NICHOLAS
had expressed profcund discontent on learning that
the English fleet had been ordered to sail towards
the Dardanelles, and had caused Count NESSELRODE
to address an energt-tic remonstrance to the English
Cabinet on the subject. The Patrie of Sunday
evening contains the following additional particu-
lars :

" We spoke yesterday of an energetic note which the
Emperor of Russia, it was said, had addressed to England
on hearing of the orders given to the English fleet. In
the note the Emperor protests against this hostile
demonstration in the midst of peace, and against the
right which England arrogates to herself to interfere in a
matter which regards:only Russia and the Sublime Porte.
As to the difficulties which this affair may give rise
to, the interpretation of the treaty existing between those
two p ,wers belong, sa) s the note, to them alone, and
England ought to remein completely unconnected
with it. Such is the substance of the note. We can
add to this news the following details. The Emperor
has signified, it is said, to Fund Effendi that he may
now consider his mission to him as terminated ; that,
besides, his presence at St. Peter.-burgh was a violation
of a convention entered into between the Sublime Pone
and Russia, according to which the Sultan could not
send an extraordinary ambassador to St. PeteroJurgh,
without having first given notice to the Russian Em-
bassy ; that he, the Emperor, in a sentiment of friend-
ship and good neighbourhood, had been pleased to shut
his eyes on the infraction, and to scc,ril an audience of
honour to the Sultan's envoy, but that from the moment
that this latter had c insidered it necessary to appeal to
the intervention of France and England, his kind dispo-
sition towards the Sublime Porte muss naturally be
changed, and henceforward the communications of the
Turkish envoy must take place through the Minister of
Foreign Affairs. It cannot be denied that the new
turn which this question is taking is full of gravity.
We shall wait for our usual correspondence to be able to
form a judgment of this unexpected phase of the Turkish
question."
The French National of yesterday, in allusion to the
above statement in the Patrie, says that the dispatch
stating that the differences between Russia and Tur-
key had been amicably arranged, which appeared in
the Moniteur and in the Journal des Debats, was
denounced at the time as a forgery both at the
Assembly and at the Bourse. The A'ational demands
explanations on this subject.
A Constantinople letter of October 20 describes
the Turks to be still animated with the greatest
resolution to resist the oppression of Russia. The
fleet was in a forward state of preparation, and well
supplied with sailors.
