DENMARK AND SCHLESWIG.

Advices have been received from Hamburgh to the
6th by the steamer which arrived this morning.

The Provisional Government of the Duchies of
Schleswig and Holstein have refused to acknowledge
the armistice lately concluded by Prussia in the name
of the Germanic Confederation. The greatest
jealousy of Prussia prevails among the Democratic
party in the North of Germany, and it is feared that
the exertions of that power to promote peace will be
rendered fruitless.

Ilematmon, SEPT. 6.—The blockade of the Elbe,
Weser, and Jande has been ;raised since yesterday,
and the Prussian ports in the Baltic have by this time
also become free. This armistice has given great
satisfaction here as well as in the interior of Northern
Germany, but not in Holstein, where that course of
intrigue which has been hitherto the basis of the
plans of the Provisional Government threatens to
make peace impossible.

The conditions of the armistice have appeared in
the Schleswig-Holstein papers, and created great
fermentation among the Democratic party in the►
Duchies, especially at Rendsburg, Kiel, and Altona.
The troops of the Duchies, levied by the Provisional
Goirernment, have refused to obey the orders of the
Prussian officers, under whose command they stoi,d,
and await those which they have requested to be rent
them by the Frankfort Central Power.
Some apprehensions are entertained of the German
troops from the southern parts of Germany declaring
in favour of the Holstein party, but such insubor-
dination can scarcely be expected from these troops,
who are besides under the control of the: Central
Power, which has given to Prussia the entire ar-
rangements of the conditions of the armistice, and
must consequently rather call upon them to see the
orders of Prussia obeyed than to act against them.
ALTONA, SEPT. s.—The sth battalion of Schlea-
wig-Holstein troops, recently formed, and composed
of "free corps" men of TANN'S and BRACKLER4 divi-
sions, have refused to move outside of Kiel, and the
7th battalion, which arrived from Eckenfiirde, has
also refused to march further. The two Hanoverian
battalions of infantry which were expected here this
afternoon, on their return home, have not arrived.
This morning, at 5 o'clock, the Danish prisoners from
Stade, 750 men, were forwarded on to Rendsburg.

KIEL, SEPT. 4.—The Assembly of the States
Representatives of the Duchies was this day re-
opened. The conditions of the armistice were
read over, as also a letter from Mr. VON AuElls-
WALD, who explained the concessions made by
Denmark, and the advantages therein contained.
Notwithstanding this letter, however, the States of
the Duchies consider this armistice as an impossi-
bility, because, not only is it contrary to the honour of
Schleswig-Holstein, but above all to that of Germany

—the act of the sovereign German people is thereby
annulled, and even the Central Power of Germany is
not acknowledged. In consequence of which the
Assembly of the Duchies has decided unanimously
upon the following motion of the Landvegt Jensen :--
" 1. That the Constitutional Assembly of the States
of the Duchies can neither be dissolved nor prorogued
against their will.
" 2. That any alteration in the present existing Go-
vernment of the country requires the sanction of the
Asst mbly.
3. All laws passed by the Provisional Government
since the 24th of March for Schleswig-Holstein can only
be altered and made void by the sanction of the As-
sembly of the States.
" 4. Without the sanction of the Assembly no new
laws can be decreed or duties imposed upon the people:
" 5. All existing dues and taxes, as well as other
State burdens will be raised by the authority of the As-
sembly, by the present existing Government of the
country, until the 31st of December, 1848."
In consequence of the above, it will be seen that
the die is cast as relates to this Holstein Provisional
Government. The Assembly has declared its sove-
reignty, and its partial refusal of the conditions of the
armistice. - - - -

It was known at Copenhagen on the 2d inst. that
the armistice had been concluded. The auction of
the condemned ships had been put off in consequence..

The attendance fee of a Parliamentary agent and an

sessional fee of 26/. ss. is to be allowed to the agent on
a Bill receiving the royal assent, which fee includes at-
tendance at several offices. When an agent is not em-

solicitor and Parliamentary agent, it is directd that the
ordinary correspondence between Parliamentary agents
and solicitors is not to be charged to their clients, but
such letters only as contain professional advice and in-
structions. Large sums were formerly paid on "private
bills," and the table of fees now issued will doubtless.
afford satisfaction to parties engaged in such matters.
