In the sitting of the Second Chamber on the 23d,
the fourth and fifth paragraphs of the Address were
carried, as proposed by the Committee, against several
amendments moved by the Opposition. The fourth
paragraph pledges the Chamber to a careful consi-
deration of the several organic laws that bad been
published since November in the form of decrees;
the fifth recognised the services and fidelity of the
army in the same terms employed in the KING'S
Speech.
The Constitutionelle Zeitung has a letter from
Dantzic, stating that some riots took place in that
city on the 18th inst., the anniversary of the Prussian
Revolution.

Several persons have been arrested in Berlin for
attempting to create disturbances.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

SCHLESWIG, MARCH 20.—To•day the National
Assembly, taking into consideration a letter addressed
on the 14th to the general administration of the two
duchies by the President of the Council of the
Minister of the Empire, adopted the following reso-
lution :—" In case the general administration of the
duchies shall give in its resignation, a new adminis-
tration shall be formed, composed of M. BESELER
and Count REVENTLOW, who shall choose a third
member from the assembly." It is hoped that there
will be a prolongation of the armistice, and that a
durable peace will be concluded. It is thought the
blockade announced by the Danish Government for
the 27th, will not take place, and that the Prussian
troops will not set out till further orders.
PROLONGATION OF THE ARMISTICE.
Official intelligence was received at Hanover on
the 20th that the armistice with Denmark was pro-
longed to the 15th of April.—Hanover Paper.
This intelligence is confirmed by the Cassel
Gazette, which says—" That a telegraphic dispatch
was received on the 15th of March, at six in the even-
ing, that the armistice was prolonged to the 15th of
April, with the additional clause, by the desire of
Denmark."

The German Reforme, of the 20th of March, writ-
ing on the same subject, says That although the
equipment of the Prussian troops destined for the
Duchies continues to be carried on, their de-
parture for the present is delayed ; the blockade of the
Schleswig-Holstein harbours, though not actually
withdrawn, will be, probably, not carried into effect ;
the temporary prolongation of the armistice may pro-
bably be regarded as the harbinger of a permanent
peace.
The Hamburgh Borsenkalle, of the 21st, contains
a letter from the Baltic Journal, which says that
two ships were in: sight on the 19th, at Swinemunde,
which were recognised as a Danish man-of- war and a
cutter ; and that on the morning of the 19th another
ship of the line was signalled, but the flag could not
be discerned.
The Frankfort Journal questions the generally
rumoured report of an alliance between Austria,
Russia, and Denmark, whereby the possession of
Schleswig is secured to the latter power, and that of
Prussian Silesia to Austria.

A courier passed through Hamburgh on the 19th
from Copenhagen to London, bearing the consent of
the Danish Government to the protocol for peace, ar-

ranged in London between the negotiators 01,' the two
