DIVORCE OF PRINCE ALBRECHT AND
THE PRINCESS MARY OF THE NE-

THERLANDS.
BERLIN.—The sentence of divorce between these
illustrious parties, whose unhappy marriage has so
long been the theme of discussion, was pronounced
by the legal tribunal on the 28th of March.
The divorce was densanded by the Prince on the
ground of insuperable aversion. As all the trials of
divorce were to be decided by the Lower Tribunal
after the Ist of April, the proceedings were con-
ducted with extiedie haste. The Princess de-
manded large damages, but this was refused
by the Court, and the Prince is to have charge of the
children. The Prineesh is now at the Hague. She
has sold her fine estate of Cumencz, in Silesia, and has
not been able to obtain permission to return to Prussia.
So soon as circumstances will admit of it, the Prin-
cess intends to go to Italy, and take up her residence
there.—Hamburgh Papers, April 17.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The Borsen Liste of Hamburgh, of the 17th,
states that Russia has again entered a protest against
the entrance of German troops into Jutland, and
consequently that they will remain on this side of
the Konigsau.
General Knonuu, who commanded the Danes in
has been recalled, and General ByLow has
been appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Jutland
division of
pnof the Danish forces in his stead.
COPENHAGEN, APRIL 16.—A second edition of the
Fadrelandet, containing the following extract from
an official report to the Minister of War, just pub-
lished, states—
" On the 13th of April, about four in the morning, the
enemy advanced in great haste and in strong columns,
with many guns. against our position at Alden Sound,
and posted a 12-pounder over against our entrenched
battery on Alsen, when a brisk cannonade was opened
by the enemy, And replied to by us; but within half an
hour the enemy's guns were silenced. The 10th Light
Battalion now advanced rapidly through the tete de pont
and captured two of the enemy's 12-pounder brass guns.
"A few gun-boats stationed to the south of Sunder-
borg took part in the affair.
" The enemy having again retired, our advanced
posts occupied the positions that they had held during
the night.

" The Bavarians appeared to be the most numerous of
the enemy's troops.
" Our loss in killed and wounded is not considerable.
Dupple Mill, and two farmhouses on Duppel, were burnt
down from the fire of the artillery.
(Signed) "By command,
"DIEDRICBSEN, Adjutant."
The following is the report to the Minister of
Marine, from Commander GAARDE, dated Soneerborg,
April 12, 1849 :
" This morning, at four o'clock, the enemy advanced
from Duppel against Alsen Sound, when two gun-boats,
commanded by Lieutenant M'Dougall, were brought
forward, and were stationed at Vennigbond, and two
others, under Captain. VOU DOCklr, remained near
sonderborg Palace.

"From the well-directed fire from our guitteats and
the entrenched batteries on Aker), the enemy's columns
w, re soon forced to retire, and the e battalions were im-
mediately dvanced through our tete de Pont, who ep•
tared two of the enemy's brass guns, and g third could
not he carried off, as it was dismounted. The gun-boats
were not injured, and lost nont, of their men. The of/i-
-c,rs and wen behaved with intrepidity, and fired niih
great coolness andpreAsion."

- The Borsenhalle (under date of Hamburgh, Ap-il
15) confirms the intelligence of the Garman troops
having stormed and possessed themselves of the re-
doubts of Duppel, and further states that they had
been then driven from them by the fire of the
Danish gun-boats and the batteries of the Isle cf
Alscn.

The same journal (under date of Flensburg,
April 14) says the battle was carried beyond
Duppel, towards Bsllegrave and Bardesboy on the
north, and on the east to Ulderup. The Da ish
troops took refuge in Alsen, and the Ger-
mans pushed on to A lsen Ald. The combat
was very fierce, the number of slain being estimated
at 1,000, which, however, appears to be exaggerated.
The Danes themselves destroyed the bridge between
Alsen and Sundewitt, on which occasion two or three
of their battalions were driven at the point of the
bsyonet into the water. The mill of Duppel and
several farms were destroyed by fire.
Intelligence from Flensburg of the 1401 states,
that on the previous evening the Danes in cJnsider-
able force occupied the Isle of Foehr, and many of
the inhabitants to, ,k to flight..
