DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
SCHLESWIG, Nov. 15.—Yesterday morning the
following notice was issued by the Administration,
relative to the much discussed Article 10 of the
Armistice Convention of July 10th; it is as follows :
" The Administration of the Duchy of Schleswig
feels called upon to make this public declaration, that
in regard to the Conventional Government in the Duchy
of Schleswig, it never was the intention of that august
body to administer, otherwise than in the name of his
Alajesty the King of Denmark, Duke of Schleswig, and
in this sense only did the administrators undertake the
government of the Duch► of Schleswig during the term
of the armistice. While the Administration gives pub-
licity to this for the purpose of removing every occasion
fur want of confidence, the duty of upholding its autho-
rity becomes more incumbent.

ITALY.

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin,
of the 14th, the discussion on the treaty of peace with
Austria was continued. M. BUFFA'S amendment was
rejected by a large majority, with all the sub-amend-
ments successively proposed by various members.
The motion of M. BALBO, who proposed that the
Chamber should vote the treaty without discussion,
was also negatived, and the debate on the mai❑ ques-
tion was opened by M. JACQUEMOND, who attacked
the treaty on the ground that the armistice had been
concluded when the country was still able to carry on
the war. The debate was then adjourned to the
following day.
The Legge states from Bologna, 9th instant, that
General D'Asritz had arrived there. The Austrians
had cut down all the trees surrounding the church of
the Annunciation, in order to give a clear range to
the artillery stationed at St. Michele, in Bosco. A
camp of observation was to be formed at Piacenza,
under the command of General D'Asrar.
The Tuscan Monitor states that on the 10th Car-
dinal PiccoLomiNz and Monsignor MASSONz had an
audience of the Grand Duke of TUSCANY.

The Osservatore Romano, of the 9th, laments that
emissaries of the Bible Society of London are actively
proselytizing Piedmont, and are greatly countenanced
in their endeavours by the Liberals, who hope thus
to sap the foundations of the Papal power. The
Osservatere adds, " that unfortunately.some priests
and monks lend their assistance to this iniquitous
plan."
The Araldo of Naples states that the King of
NAPLES has ordered a levy of 18,000 men for 1850.

A letter from Venice of the 12th announces that
General GORZHOWSKI has been removed from the
military command of Venice.
The arrests at Rome and Naples still continue.
The priests in the former city wax more and more
bloodthirsty every day ; according to the correspon-
dent of a Paris journal, one of these Priests, in com-
menting on what he denominated the unaccountable
delay of the Government in executing the prisoners,
declared that 40,000 heads must fall in Rome, and
that all Liberals, men, women, and children, should be
exterminated.
