HAMBURGH MAIL.
SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN, MAY 5, EVENING.—The son
of Prince Charles of Russia hastened through this city
to day from holding to Berlin. He is reported to have
said that Denmark had made propositions which would
in all probability lead to peace. General Halkett is in
possession of Alsen, and some persons imagine that by
means of a telescope they can see the German flag
hoisted there. The Danes are carrying their wounded
and prisoners to Fuhnen; the Schleswig-Holstein troops
are marched to Konigsan.
Chevalier Bunsen was elected this day representative
of our city by 473 votes, being a majority of 425 against
Dr. Steindorf, who had only 47 votes. Count Von
Moltke voted for Professor Gervinas. The Chevalier
bas also been returned by the rural elective circle and
the town of Eckerfurde intends also to declare itself in
his favour.

The workhouse is to be arranged as an hospital.
The Duke of Augustenburg arrived here yesterday
with his son, Prince Frederick, and instantly hastened

permitted by the Danish corvette to put to sea; also an
English vessel bound for Riga.
ELSINORE, MAY 4.—The ship Emily Hudson, of
Lonuon, with coals from Newcastle to Sell weinemunde,
put in leaky here on the Ist, and must unload her cargo.
The Rienzi, Watson, from Sunderland ; the Robroy,
Dry burgh, from Charlestown, and Mary Rickinscn,
from Newcastle, have also arrived here with coals. The
Reina Engelkens, from Rossen to Dantzic, with wine,
unloaded part of her champagne yesterday, and, under
present circumstances, will probably unload the whole of
her cargo here.
MAY 6.—According to advices from Kansa of the Ist,
three Prussian ships bound for Prussian harbours have
been compelled to run in here. Capt. Mager, of Hartle-
pool, reports having seen a Russian vessel brought up a
prize by a Danish yacht in the Castlegal. The Watson,
of Hull, from London for Stettin, cleared here on the Ist,
and the Brant, from Bordeaux, with wine for Stettin, on

stationed at Schmememnnde, the former sailed for Co-

that the Cecelia Louise and the Charlotte, for Valpa-
raiso, the Capella, for Monte Video, and the Johaunis
Christoph, for Laguaira (all for Hamburgh), have been
taken prizes to Copenhagen.
COPENHAGEN, MAY s.—Numerous German ships are
lying in our harbours, under embargo. The Minster
of Marine has this day issued a notice, stating the
following harbours to be under effectual blockade :
Pillan, Dantzic, Schweimandl, Stralsund, Rostock, W it-
mar, and Kirel, and the entrance of the Schleswig-

bours are to be considered in a state of blockade until
an official notification of the same has been previously
made. " ZAHRTaIANN.
