DENMARK.

COPENIrAGEN, /111flacu 21.—A1l the reports rela-
tive to peace, so industriously spread, have proved
false. Several frigates have set out for the south.
The frigate Thetis sailed yesterday for the north;
she has cast anchor at Helsingoer. The KING de-
parts to day from Helsingoer for Alsen, from whence
he will go to Fredrickagave, in the Isle of Trione, and
afterwards to Jutland.

HAMBURGII, MARCH 23.—M. KLEIN, the new
Minister from France to the Hanseatic towns, has
arrived here.

To the hopes, if not of a definitive peace, at least
of a prolongation of the armistice, have suc-
ceeded, during the last two days, the tumult of
war and the sudden movement of the army
of the Germanic empire in the two duchies. By the
passages of the Elbe, and by different other points,
troops of all arms, provided with ample munitions of
war, have entered the duchies to oppcse the Danish
invasion. The hours of the armistice are counted,
and except prevented by some unforeseen cause, the
war will be immediately recommenced with more
fury than last year.
Yesterday General PRITTWITZ arrived here from
Berlin. Ile goes to the duchies to take the command-
in -chief of the troops of the Empire ; 2,000 Prussians
are expected to-morrow.
We have received this day recent intelligence from
Copenhagen, according to which we understand the
King of DENMARK was about to set out for the Isle
of Alsen to put himself at the head of his army.
According to the latest aivices, the Danish Govern-
ment, supported in this case by the principal powers
of Europe, has decided on maintaining in their en-
tirety its rights to the duchy of Schleswig.
The news is confirmed that a body of 20,000 Prus-
sians are concentrated on the frontiers of Mecklen•
burg. Serious troubles have broken out in Strelitz,
the capital of Mecklenburg, on occasion of celebrating
the anniversary of March last year. The Grand
Duke called for the aid of the Prussians, who sent
some troops and restored order.

"The operation of introducing a catheter through an impermeable

surgical operations, and demands all the prudence, science, and skill

was received with marked disapprobation by the House."
It is considered probable that Count Alai's will

to attack the second division of cur army, which had
taken up position on the road of Garlasco, before La
Sporzesca, where the head-quirttra were, and on the
road of Gambol°, with a vanguard stationed us far as
Borgo San Siro. The first attack took place ripen the
position of La Sporzesca, and was renewed several times
for more than four hours. Our troops, seconded by
the second regiment of the brigade of Savoy sustained
all these attacks with valour. About four r M. the enemy
attacked the came division en the road to Gainbulo; here
the first regiment of Savoy alone, with eight pieces of
artillery, resisted every attack, without losing an itch
of ground, for more than an hour ; meantime the bri-
gade of Savona and the fourth division arrived, and the
enemy was repulsed. In all these engagements, such
of our troops as took part in them behaved in a most
praieworthy manner. About six P.M. the Austrians
attacked two other divisions—namely, the first, and the
reserve division, which occupied the position from Ves•
palate and Novara to Mortara. Although the enemy did
not begin this attack with great force, our troops re-
tired after a short engagement, which was only main-
tained by the division of reserve, the first division not
having taken part in it as it ought to have done. The
enemy afterwards entered Mortara, without any
material damage being suffered by that town.
Yesterday (22d) there was no engagement. The head
quarters were transferred to Trecate and thence to
Novara, where the King is. The Princes are at
the head of their divisions. The Commander•in-
Chief has concentrated all the forces near the
head-quarters on the right flank of the enemy's army.
Some soliiers shamefully dispersed, and they it
principally was who spread alarm in the towns of Ver-
celli, Casale, and other places in the vicinity. Govern-
ment has given all necessary orders to proceed against
them with the greatest severity, and send them back to
their corps. The local authorities all did their duty,
and showed the greatest energy and activity.

A telegraphic dispatch received from Alessandria,
on the 22d, at Turin, states that RADETZICY was still
at 3 p.m. on the 21st at Pavia, with his staff and 5,000
men. At that time a large body of Austrians had en-
tered Lome Dina. The artillery of the enemy, com-
prising that remaining at Pavia, consisted of 54 pieces.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
HULL, MARCH 27.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states—Since the
offi&al statement of imports was made up we have had another
large arrival of all kinds of grain, but not so large as the
number of vessels reported would indicate ; they are chiefly
small craft from near ports that have been kept back by the
long prevalent westerly winds. A large proportion of the
wheat is of too inferior quality for the wants of the market,
and having comparatively a small show of real good samples,
we must write the market very firm for such descriptions, with
rather an upward tendency. During the past week a good
business has been done in most articles of the trade, though at
lower prices, with the single exception of the best runs of wheat.
We had for to-day's market a good supply of farmers' wheat,
and the condition being improved our millers were free buyers
at fully last week's prices. A large show of foreign chiefly
inferior both in quality and condition, and such was difficult to
turn into money, while for the better runs of red we had a
good consumptive sale at last week's prices, and many buyers.
Some nice Saal barley is on the market, and less disposition to
submit to late prices, but demand is slow. Grinding barleys
offer low. Beans have been much depressed, and may be
bought on very easy terms. Peas and oats quite neglected.
Very little business doing in linseed, and our prices almost
nominal. We note no alteration in cakes. No rapeseed on
sale, and rape cakes very dull. A good many bones on the
market.

PORTUGAL.
Intelligence has been received from Lisbon, to the
19th, by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's
steam-ship Madrid.
The Minister of Finance (LorEz BaAsco) gave
the following account of the miserable financial
condition of Portugal, in one of the recent sittings
of the Chamber of Deputies. He began by declaring
that—

" Come what might of it, be was determined to speak
out the plain truth. He had been called to take charge
of the finances at a period of greater embarrassment than
had over been known before. The revenue was daily
and rapidly decreasing, and what between the
sums appropriated to the Board of Public Credit,
those set apart for the repayment of temporary ac-
commodations, and the anticipation of various sources
of income, the balance remaining in the public coffers, to
meet current demands, amounted some days, bat very
rarely, to IS7 milreis, while other days it fell rather
short of 90 reis, or five pence sterling! In making
this painful avowal he did not wish to cast any re•
flection upon his predecessor in office, who could not
justly be blamed for that which was the effect of causes
to be traced much farther back. To extricate the
country all at once from these difficulties was of course
impossible; but he trusted that, with time and patient
perseverance, much of the evil might be remedied."
By the new concordat the right of ecclesiastical
patronage in India, vested in the Crown of Portugal,
has been ceded to the Porn, the Bulla de Cruzada (a
papal bull by which, on the payment of a small sum,
varying from twopence to about two shillings, ac-
cording to the means of each individual, certain
trifling mitigations of the Lent fast are granted, and
which sums are transmitted to the Pork) is restored,
and the Portuguese Government has further engaged
to restore the extinct ecclesiastical seminaries at-
tached to each episcopal establishment, as well as to
perpetuate the still remaining nunneries by again al-
lowing the profession of new nuns, which had been
prohibited ever since 1833.
It would be certainly more honest in the Portu-
guese Government to pay their creditors than to
waste their funds in restoring ecclesiastical seminaries
and sending money to the Porß.

TUESTIERIFFS' COURT.

Mr. 11. L. Tar Lon (the chairman of the Officers
and Clerks Committee) brought up a report recom-
mending that various alterations and improvements in
the premises (late the Court of Requests) for the
Sheriff's Court should be made, at an expense esti-
mated by Mr. Bunning, the City architect, at 2,4691.
Mr. H. L. TAYLOR stated that the present size of
the court was by no means adapted to the increase of
business which had taken place since the conversion
cf the Court of Requests into a tribunal of greater
importance and utility.
Alderman LAWRENCE condemned the appropriation
of money which had been wrung in fines from the
pockets of persons too poor to pay their debts to such
a purpose. Already a sum amounting to 3,000/. had
been accumulated, as the Court House Fund, from
that source. The question which the Court were
bound to entertain was rather that of educing the
expense of those who happened to come under the
operation of the law. All, in his opinion, that was
required, was to keep the prisent building in reipair.
The report was then agreed to by a very .large

majority.
A discussion arose upon a motion by Alt. T.
WHITE, that it be referred to the Committee for
General Purposes to consider and report to the Court
the best means of testifying the admiration and the
deep sense entertained by the citizens of London of
the disinterested and heroic conduct of Lieutenant
Molesworth, R.N., of her Majesty's ship Wellesley, in
saving the lives of his fellow-passengers on board the
Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's ship the Forth,
on the 14th day of January last.
Mr. White's argument was principally founded
upon a letter signed by all the passengers in testimony
of the extraordinary exertions of Lieutenant Moles-
worth. It was contended by several members that
any peculiar notice taken by the Court of conduct
which, after all, might not have exceeded in daring or
skill the duty of a gallant seaman, would operate as a
censure upon the captain and the rest of the crew,
and Mr. White was advised to withdraw his motion.
He, however, persevered in taking the sense of the
Court, and the previous question having been moved
as an amendment, was carried by a considerable
majority.

FRANKFORT,

Luttert from Frankfort of Sept. 28 state—
,' Our autumn fair closes tc-day, and for years we have
not had any fair which has exhibited results as satisfac-
tory, not only regarding wholesale but also retail
operations. But as it is natural that the sales are not
always equally large in all branches, it has been ob-
served this time that articles of mere fashion have
been in little demand, and the sales of articles of
necessity have been so quick that a great number
of merchants were compelled, after disposing of all
they had brought, to carry home orders for what they
could not supply on the spot. The retail trade has been
favoured by the fine weather, which has induced many
to attend the fair from a distance. The result of this
fair proves that Frankfort has not lost its importance as
a place for holding fairs, and that it will become still
more important when the railroads which terminate in
Frankfort shall be finished, and thus render it a cen-
tral point of union for the railways of Western Ger-
many."

THE BANKERS'.

That portion of the mystery of stock-jobbing which
consists in dealings in shares, whether for money or
for the account, is clearly developed, for the informa-
tion of the uninitiated in such matters, in the first
half-dozen pages of the present number. Among the
other articles is one on the " Practical Effects of the
Repeal of the Navigation Laws," concluding with
these sensible remarks
" When we look to the long list of restrictions which
that Act hes removed from the commerce of the country
we are struck with amazement that, under such an in-
cubus, our trade and navigation have expanded in the
way they have. It is impossible, however, not to feel
that, in spite of all the efforts and ingenuity of our mer-
chants to avoid the difficulties and losses to which such
an intricate system of prohibitions and restrictions has
exposed them, an extent of loss must have been entailed
upon the country which cannot possibly be estimated."
Attention is drawn in another paper to the cheering
circumstance of the large increase in both our exports
and our imports as compared with last year, amount-
ing in the respective Augusts to no less than
2,012,5001. as to the former, more than one-half of
which has arisen from the activity of our cotton,

linen, silk, and woollen manufactures. The article
of machinery exhibited a decrease, furnishing conti-
nued evidence that from the neglect of mechanical
improvements in foreign manufactories, caused by the
disturbances of the past eighteen months, a start has
been given to our own, productions which will pro-
bably not be recovered by our competitors for many
years. The remaining articles, and the usual statis-
tical information touching monetary matters, are
characterised by the wonted accuracy and clearness
of this useful periodical.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

Husum, SEPT. H.—An emeute took place here yes-
terday; it was occasioned by the arrival of the new
postmaster, who had received his appointment from
the Government Commission to act at Tonning; be
was so gross"! insulted by the populace of Tonning
that he was compelled to make his retreat hither
under escort of the Danish Chamberlain and his secre-
tary, accompanied by a body of Hussars. But his
reception was no better here ; he and his companions
were hissed and hooted at by the populace, who
even threw stones at them, and insisted that he
should instantly take his departure in order that
the public peace might not be broken. He was with
difficulty rescued from the mob by the energetic con-
duct of a citizen named SCHMIDT, who, however, drew
the popular fury upon himself, and he with difficulty
effected his escape to his own house, whither the mob
closely pursued him and wreaked their vengeance
upon him by breaking his windows. The Prussian
troops did not succeed in establishing order till nearly
ten o'clock at night.
The German Reform says the Danish Ministers
have solemnly bound themselves by a 'protocol not to
consent in the treaty of peace to a partition of Schles-
wig under any circumstances whatever, but to persist
in the maintenance of the integrity of the duchy.

THE BRITISH GAZETTEER.

Part the sixth well maintains the reputation which
the preceding numbers have fairly won. The county
maps are those of Warwickshire and Cheshire, and
the illustrations consist of engravings of the Univer-
sity Gallery and Ta 3 ler's Buildings, Oxford, and of
Queen Elizabeth's Hospital, Brandon-hill, Clifton,
the latter, especially, being a beautiful print. The
diligent editors of this work have a deserved claim
upon public approbation and support for their supply
of varied and useful matter, both statistical and histo-
rical. On completion it will doubtless be the Gazetteer
of Great Britain.

ZADKIEL'S ALMANAC for 1850.
Zadkiel is early in the field as an almanac writer.
The fearful scourge under which we are still suffering
was expressly predicted by him in his almanac for
the present year ; and in the number for 1850 we
find foretold a revjsitation of the cholera in the ensuing
summer. May the seer prove to be mistaken ; but,
unfortunately, his predictions generally turn out
correct. There are some very curious vaticinations
in the new number relating to the French President,
the Czar, &c., and an interesting essay on chrono-
logy. The author's sincere and indefatigable exer-
tions to dispel the prejudices of the worldly-wise
against stellar influence have rendered the sale of this
work so extensive, that a particular notice of the
superior manner in which it is got up is uncalled for.
May we hint to him that a republication (perhaps in
an abridged form) of Ramesey's work, and an en-
larged edition of his own Grammar, might not
unworthily occupy his leisure ?

FRASER.

Fraser this month opens with a defence of the
existing Laws of Lunacy, to which we shall hereafter
refer at greater length; we must, however, be per-
mitted, en passant, to express our delight at finding
Fraser taking up the cudgels for these most iniquitous
laws. We cannot but remember that in 1828 he
violently opposed Catholic Emancipation, which was
carried in the then next session of Parliament ;
that in 1831 he came out in immense force against
the Reform Bill, which became the law of the land
in 1832 ; that he undertook the defence of the Corn
Laws in 1845, which were repealed in the following
year • and that in 1849:the Navigation Laws were
repealed, notwithstanding the indignant pro-
tests recorded in Fraser during the whole of
the year 1848. We hail the omen, and feel convinced
that the Lunacy Laws will be reformed in 1850,
since the regular attendant on dying laws has taken
them under his especial protection. The literary
articles in Fraser are, as usual, of high merit. His
review of Baron Haxthausen's work on "Russia" is
replete with valuable information on the state of the
Russian people and the internal polity of the Russian
Empire. The "Wars of the:Communiades" is agraceful
narrative of the last struggle of free Spain in 1520,
under Don Juan de Padilla, against the despotic
tyranny of the House of Hapsburg. The adventures
of the eccentric Baron Thierry, who set up as a king
in New Zealand, and who was literally roasted by
his subjects and afterwards eaten, form the subject of
the paper entitled " King and No King," and we have
a thorough knouting (richly deserved and well laid
on) of Messrs. Pitman and Ellis, of Fonetic Nuz no-
toriety, in the article entitled" Phonetics." " Fami-
liar Letters from Ireland " is the commencement of a
series whichl promises well. We have likewise some
curious extracts from the " Gesta Romanorum," the
continuance of " The Peace Campaign of Ensign
Faunce," and the " Current History of the Month."

TURKEY.

Letters from Malta of the 26th ult. state that in•
telligence had been received in that island from Con-
stantinople of the 19th, which gave every reason to
hope that the questions which had arisen between
Turkey and Russia would be settled amicably,
inasmuch as the Russian Ambassador had shown
himself much more reasonable since he found that
England and France supported Turkey in her refusal
to comply with his unjust demands. Rear-Admiral
HARVEY, who was at Malta, received a dispatch from
Sir STRATFORD CANNING on the 22d ult. He im-
mediately forwarded it to Sir W. PARKER, who was
at Corfu with the Queen, Caledonia, and Howe,
three-deckers ; Prince Regent, Powerful, Vengeance,
and Bellerophon, two-deckers ; Thetis frigate, Odin
steam frigate, and Rosamond and Ardent steam-
sloops. It was supposed that Sir W. PARKER would
at once proceed with his fleet to the Dardanelles. It
was said that a Russian fleet had been met with in
the Black Sea steering towards Constantinople. It
is said that there is proof that the outbreak in Ce-
phalonia was the work of Greeks in the pay of
Russia.

ITALY.

The intelligence from Rome is to the 25th tilt.

The people still continued indignant at the conduct
of the Porn and the Cardinals, and lost no opportu-
nity of giving vent to their feelings. The Austrian
Marshal WIMPFEN has taken up his residence at
Bologna, as Governor of the Roman States occupied
by Austria ; neither RADETZRY nor PACHTA. will re-
turn to Italy.
The Senate of Turin on the 27th ult. passed the
Bill authorising the payment to Austria of the first
portion of the indemnity.
The President of the Chamber, the Marquis Lo-
RENIIK) I'ARETRO, has proceeded with a deputation to
Genoa, to receive the body of CHARLES ALBERT.

FRANKFORT,

Letters from Frankfort of Sept. 28 state—
" Our autumn fair closes to-day, and for years we have
not had any fair which has exhibited results as satisfac-
tory, not only regarding wholesale but also retail
operations. But as it is natural that the sales are not
always equally large in all branches, it has been ob-
served this time that articles of mere fashion have
been in little demand, and the sales of articles of
necessity have been so quick that a great number
of merchants were compelled, after disposing of all
they had brought, to carry home orders for what they
could not supply on the spot. The retail trade has been
favoured by the fine weather, which has induced many
to attend the fair from a distance. The result of this
fair proves that Frankfort has not lost its importance as
a place for holding fairs, and that it will become still
more important when the railroads which terminate in
Frankfort shall be finished, and thus render it a cen-
tral point of union for the railways of Western Ger-
many."

SCILESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

HUSUM, SEPT. 26.—An emeute took place here yes-
terday; it was occasioned by the arrival of the new
postmaster, who had received his appointment from
the Government Commission to act at Tonning ; he
was so grossly insulted by the populace of Tonning
that he was compelled to make his retreat hither
under escort of the Danish Chamberlain and hi 3 secre-
tary, accompanied by a body of Hussars. But his
reception was no better here ; he and his companions
were hissed and hooted at by the populace, who
even threw stones at them, and insisted that he
should instantly take his departure in order that
the public peace might-net be 'broken. He was with
difficulty rescued from-the mob by the energetic con-
duct of a citizen named SCUMIDT, who, however, drew
the popular fury upon himself, and he with difficulty
effected his escape to his own house, whither the mob
closely pursued him and wreaked their vengeance
upon him by breaking his windows. The Prussian
troops did not succeed in establishing order till nearly
ten o'clock at night.
The German Reform
,say `s the Danish Ministers
have solemnly buund themselves'by a protocol not to
consent in the treaty of peace to a partition of Schles-
wig under any circumstances whatever, but to persist
in the maintenance of the integrity of the duchy.

EADVERTISEMENT.]—A Sufferer from Severe De-
bility and a Shattered Constitution cured by Holloway's Pills.
—Mr. Heintjes van Veerssen, a merchant, residing at Nyme-
gen, in Holland, had been suffering for years from a generri
debility ; his strength had become so prostrated that he was
quite incapable of attending to any kind of business ; his con-
stitution was rapidly giving way, notwithstanding the efforts of
the cleverest medical men to arrest the decline. At this crisis
he commenced taking Holloway's Pills, and by their use his
health and strength are perfectly re-established, in gratitude
for which blessing he desires that publicity be given to it, that
others may seek relief by the same means.—Sold by all Drug-
gists and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand,,
