GERMANY

AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

The Breslaw Gazette states, from Vienna of the
21st, that a schism has arisen between the Ban JEL•
LACUICH and the Austrian Government, on account
of the refusal of the latter to make modifications in
the Constitution in favour of the Sclavonians. The
letter adds that it was only on the pledge of JELLA-
CHICII, that such modifications should be made, that
the Council of the Banat consented to promulgate the
Constitution of the 4th March.

The Gcrman Reform says that both in Servia and
Croatia great irritation still prevails against the
Government.

The Wanderer of Vienna states that the commer-
cial restrictions adopted by the Russian Government
have recently become so severe es to threaten to
deprive the Austrians of the Russian markets.
The Breslau) Gazette states that Count ZICIIIE hss
been sent by the Austrian Government to Warsaw,
to receive from Princ PASKIEWITCH an account of
the expenses of the Russian expedition in Hungary ;
but this journal expresses the opinion, that as Russia
declared that she would bear the expenses herself, the
Austrian Diet will not vote them.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The Journal des Dibats•'publishes the following,
under date of Copenhagen, 10th instant:—
" We have to-day a piece of news of the highest im-
portance. The pretended Lieutenant-General of Schles-
wig-Holstein, who supported with so much obstinacy the
unjust pretension to erect the two duchies into an inde•
pendent state, and which only a few days since threat-
ened us with a new war, now begins to relax in Lis
exigencies, and demands to come to an understanding
with Denmark on the subject. The person whom the
Duke d'Augustenbourg has charged with the delicate
mission of opening negotiations with the Danish Govern-
ment on this affair, is the Baron de Biome do Falken-
berg, a Schleswig noble, who formerly fulfilled the func-
tions of Danish Minister at London and at St. Peters
burgh, and who himself has always IKen one of the
greatest opponents of the Schleswig-Holstein insurrec-
tion. In choosing M. de Biome, the Duke d'Augusten •
buurg doubtless had the intention of sender g to
Copenhagen what may be called a persona grata, for this
gentleman is allied to our most illustrious families, and
is generally highly esteemed. M. do Blouse arrived
here yesterday, and in the evening the Austrian and
English Ministers called on him. This morning M. de
Biome waited on the Count de Munro de Bregentved,
the Minister of Foreign Relations, who received him
with marked distinction, and a long conference took
place. Nothing official is known of the result of this
interview, but persons who from their position are ge-
nerally well-informed on political matters, positively
state that the Duke d'Augustenbourg has declared
himself disposed to accept the proposals made by our
Government before the war, vz , that the Duchy of
Schlesaig shouli receive a distinct constitution, mid a
distinct national representation, and that there should be
nothing, in common between Schle swig and Denmark,
except the army and the financial administration."
Letters from Hamburgh and Berlin confirm the
statement already made of direct negotiations between
the Government of the Duchies and that of Denmark
being about to be opened, and hopes are expressed
!hat they will lead to a favourable result.
