DENMARK.

COPEOZAGEN, JUNE 21.—The Berlinger Zeitung
publishes the regulations of the Minister of Finance
relative to the precautionary measures and quarantine
regulations which are to be observed on the arrival
of the Russian fleet. Not only must all passengers
coming by the various steamers from Germany per-
form quarantine at Klampenberg, but all quarantine
commissioners are charged by the Minister of Fi-
nance to exert the utmost vigilance that no commu-
nication whatever takes place between the Russian
ships of the line and the inhabitants on shore until
the commander shall have made a declaration, in
a given form, that his vessel and crew have had
no communication whatever, for five days,
with any town or locality infested by the
cholera. Vessels and craft of every kind are forbidden
to have any communication with the Russian fleet
without carrying on board with them an authorised
person, who shall take care that no Russian ship be
approached before the commander of the same shall
have made the required declaration respecting the
health of his ship's company.
The Prussian steamer the OJer, which brought the
dispatches of the Chamberlain RUDTZ from Berlin,
via Stralsund, has gone off again, probably with the
return dispatches. The state of things was still the
same at Aarhuus on the 17th. This iu all that is
known respecting the relations between Prussia and
Denmark.

HADERSLEBEN, JUNE 22.—We have at length re-
ceived intelligence of the advance of the troops of the
empire in Jutland. The right wing, composed of
Prussians, commenced their march a few days since;
the left wing, consisting of Bavarians, broke up from
Scanderborg, and will go round by the west of
Aarhuu3 to Randers. A subsequent notice states,
that the Bavarians have taken pol-session of Aarhuus,
and that the Prussians are in Randers. Report says
that the Danes have landed in Jutland (at Varde)
and intend taking the direction of Kolding. In
Fredericia everything is in activity, and it is evident
the German troops will very readily forego their re-
solve of taking that fortress.

FLENSBURG, JUNE 22.—Twenty Russian ships are
reported to have been seen at the mouth of the har-
bour this morning, and several of the crews (how
many is not stated) were either landed or attempted
to land at Angela. Later in the day about forty
ships were seen from the Dupplen batteries steering
northwards. This apparition caused a lively commo-
tion among the men in the batteries. The Borsenhalle
affirms that they cannot have formed a part
of the Russian fleet, since it appears from the
steam-boat report that on the 15th and 16th it was
still at Dagoe, and below Jutland, and the stiff west
winds which have prevailed for some days would
make their appearance in the waters of Schleswig
very problematical, and supposes they may be the five
sail and two steamers which preceded the fleet, and
which reached Copenhagen some days since. A
notice from Apenrade of the 22d, states that in conse-
quence of the report of the appearance of 30 war
ships at Alsen, several expresses have been sent off to
the commanders of the German tronps.

ITALY.

Accounts have been received from Rcnr, to the 19th

The act of Vandalism committed by OnDirsoT in
breaking down the aqueduct has been visited upon his
own head—the water thus cut off has formed
swamps in the very heart of the French positions, and
has thus become a magazine of malaria. About half
the French army is, it is said, suffering from fever,
and the prisoners who have been taken by the
Romans say that the troops are almost starving.
General OUDINOT has, it is said, seized a British
subject, Captain KNIGHT, who was proceeding from
Viterbo to Rome to join his family, and detained him
in custody. The British Government will of course
demand ample reparation for this insult.
No reliance whatever can be placed on the state-
ments of the French Government : they stated that
in the affair of the 3d their loss was two killed and
twelve wounded, while the dead bodies of fifty French
soldiers were found in the Torre Quatre Venti alone.
On the 16th one of the French shells fell close to
the Temple of Vesta.
In the sitting of the National Aszembly, the cor-
respondence between M. DE COURCELLES and the
Triumvir Mazzira was read; MAZZINI thus disposes
of the tricky disavowal by the French Government
of their Minister, M. DE LBSSEPS :--
"The diplomatic question is then thus posed between
us. M. de Lesseps was Minister Plenipotentiary o
France at R .me. He was such in our eyes the 31st of
May as before. Nothing occurred to warn us to the
contrary. Wo treated with him in good faith, as if
were treating with France, and this good faith cost us
the occupation of Monte Mario on the night of the 28 -
29th May. Engaged in an entirely pacific discussion
with M. de Lesseps, desiring to avoid everything that
might precipitate minds towards a conclusion that France
would initiate her mission of protection by the siege of
Rome, we allowed this to pass. At each movement of
troops—at each operation of detail tending to hem us in
more and more, and to bring the army closer to posi-
tions ws. might have defended, M. de Lesseps lulled us
by saying that nothing more was intended than to
satisfy the feverish excitement of troops fatigued with
immobility. He supplicated us, in the name of both
countries and of humanity, to avoid all hostile recounters
—to place full confidence in himself, and not to fear for
the consequences. We willingly yielded; and now,
for my part, I repeat that I did so, not that I fear
for Rome, but because brave bosoms have now to stand
in place of positions which might have been defended at
less cost."

Here he details the circumstances of the depar-
ture of M DE LESSEPS, declaring that the signature
of the General was a mere formality with the receipt
of the subsequent communications, disavowing the
treaty—the surprise of the Villa Pamfili, owing to the
false security of the Romans, and proceeds :
" And now, I ask, how does the dispatch of the 26th
May, called, for the first time, in M. de Courcelle's letter,
concern us? How do the dispatches cited by General
Oudinot concern the R man Government? We never
saw those dispatches, and are ignorant of their contents;
they never were officially communicated to us. We have
on one side the assertions of General Oudinot, on the
other those of the French Plenipotentiary. They are
contradictory of each other. Let France, for sake of
covering her honour, settle these contradictions the best
way she can. Between a Minister Plenipotentiary and
the General of an army, our Assembly ,believed that it
might follow the traditional vale, and take for granted
the order of facts established by the Plenipotentiary.
The Assembly thought right; and I must observe that
it is only this day, the tenth of the siege of Rome, that
the presence of M. de Courcelles at the camp has been offi-
cially, and even that in an indirect manner, made known
to us. Weigh the official duties, compare them with the
date of the occupation of Monte Mario, and the operations
of the French army, and tell me if Europe, in coldly
examining them, will not be disposed to say, that the
French Government aimed at tricking the Roman Go-
vernment—that General Oudinot bad dishonourably
taken advantage of the good faith of the men composing
it, in order to narrow the circle of operations, and to
occupy favourable positions, in order that he might sur-
prise the town. Either the dispatch of the 26th is not
in existence, or it was not communicated in time to M.
de Leaseps." . .

Having again shown that the General must have
taken advantage of the negotiations to forward his
operations, while holding back dispatches alleged to
be of a contrary character, he goes cn to say that
" The Roman Government had never d.visted from
the line of honour, which was more than the French
Government could say. France (he adds) has no
drape au; she mks to fire a town which has done her
no wrong. And that without political programme—
without avowed aim—without right., and without any
mission to fulfil. She plays the part of Austria, and has
not the poor courage to avow it. She drags no. il3.F_inn"
