DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
SCHLESWIG, MARCH 24.—The anniversary of the
24th March, 1848, has opened by the ringing of bells,
the hoisting of the German flag, and the demonstra-
tion oF popular rejoicing.
HAMBURGH, MARCH 24.—The Ambassador Extra-
ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the French
Republic M. KLEIN, submitted his credendials in due
form to-day.
The Ilamburgh Borsenhalle of the 27th says that
the mail from Schleswig had not arrived at Rends-
burgh, so that nothing positive was known respecting
the resignation of the Provisional Government and
the appointment of Stadtholder, which was said to
have taken place during the preceding night. There
are great movements among the military, and large
bodies of soldiers continue to march through the city.
COPENHAGEN, MARCH 24.—A very important com-
munication was made by the Minister in the sitting
of the Diet this day. He stated that the negotiators
in London had so far agreed on the basis for the nego-
tiation of peace, that Schleswig, united with Denmark,
shall maintain an independent provincial position, and
that the Danish Government had consequently en-
tered into a provisonium, during which Schleswig
is to be governed by an administration, appointed by
the King of DENMARK, and garrisoned by Danish
troops. Some lesser preliminaries having still to be
settled before the commencement of hostilities ; the
King of DENMARK had agreed to commence opera-
tions before the 3d of April. He would not, how-
ever, bind himself to adhere to this day if foreign
' troops were to enter the duchies sooner. The Minis-
terial communication did not appear to produce a
very favourable impression upon the Diet, for it is
generally believed that it will be impossible that the
treaty should be concluded upon the expected basis.
The ultimatum proposed:by the King of DENMARK,
which was sent to London from hence on the 21st,
differs essentially from the terms first proposed by
England, and is accompanied by a declaration that
the pending negotiation will not prevent the recom-
mencement of hostilities on the 27th. It is almost
impossible that the courier who took this dispatch,
and who will certainly remain in London two days, can
return by the 27th. The Secretary of the Post-Office
has given notice that in consequence of the termination
of the armistice on the 27th there will
be no further communications across the Duchies
after the 25th. The letters will be forwarded by the
steamers Malmo and Obotrith, via Lubeck and
Wiesmar.

It is currently reported here that previous to the
KING'S joining the army, on the 21st, he declined
signing some conciliatory negotiation for peace, or
prolongation of the armistice ; and it seems not im-
probable that all the endeavours of the English Ca-
binet have failed to alter his fixed purpose, and the
desire of his people. The English Government par-
ticularly wished that the KING should remain here.
