GERMANY.

The Magyar Burlap of Pesth contains the following
declaration from General ITAYNAU :-
"The Gazette of the empire of Austria seeks to assign,
with a pen dipped in poison, the motives which have
determined the Council of Ministers to insist with
his Majesty on my being dismissed from the post
of Commander-in-chief and Governor of Hungary.
It reproaches me with not having obeyed the Govern-
ment, with not having comprehended my mission, with
having attributed to myself the prerogatives of the
Crown, with having acted arbitrarily, and with having
exercised the privilege of pardoning without respect
for the Crown. In repelling, in the most formal manner,
these perfidious insinuations, I think it my duty, in the
conviction of my loyal intentions, and in the sentiment
of respect and obedience due to his Majesty, which I
have never failed in during a career of fifty years, to
declare before the whole world, that in all my acts I
have had for guide only the interest of the state—
that I never exercised the right of grace, which is the
privilege of sovereignty, except in the name of the
Emperor, my master, and within the limits which ho had
traced out, and according to the principles of justice tied
in appreciating the circumstances. The extraordinary
powers conferred on me by the Sovereign were with-
drawn only by an autograph letter of the 6th of July
last, which I received on the 7th, and by which his Ma-
jesty placed me on the retired list. Consequently, I
can see, in the attacks made on the loyalty of the cha-
racter of a man who like me grappled with, the efforts
of the revolution at the root, only an attempt to favour
the democracy, and to again place in doubt the existence
of monarchy, for which so many faithful soldiers have
shed their blood. By this justification, I declare
that I will not give any other explanation through
the press; and that I return to private lire, after
having been represented by the author of that defama-
tory article as a second Bellisarius, without, however,
his bring able to deprive me of sight, and without his
having the power, though surrounded with the party of
disorganization, to see me forced by want to beg my
bread conducted by my only (laughter.
(Signed) " ITAYNAU."
General HATNAU, in taking leave of the army, pub-
lished an order of the day in which, after having con-
gratulated the soldiers for the bravery, and thanked the
officers of all grades for the exactitude with which they
have executed his orders, he alds:—
" Soldiers,—ln bidding you adieu, I feel convinced
that our beloved Emperor can always, in any new dan-
ger, reckon on your devotedness. Peace does certainly
at the present moment exist, and it alone can heal up the
wounds inflicted on our country by the unheard-of efforts
of a party of odious disorganiz Won, but it is not yet
confirmed, and the horizon of state. and nations is still
charged with meancing clouds, whence might issue tem-
pests of a still more violent character than those which
we have witnessed. You must hold yourselves always
ready; for the tranquillity, order, and grandeur of the
monarchy are confided to your fidelity, ♦alour, and dis-
cipline, and you will not have fulfilled the task confided
to you by our Emperor and master, until you have
ensured to the country the durable enjoyment of these
blessings."
A letter from Frankfort, of the 14th instant, in the
Suabian Mercury, states that the Plenipotentiaries of
the German Congress held two sittings the day before.
The subject of the deliberation was dispatches brought
by a courier from Vienna to Count Tama and contain-
ing, it is said, the definitive result of the negotiations
which have taken place between the Cabinets of Vienna
and Berlin on the German question. It is now believed,
the letter states, that the entrance of the Russian ple-
nipotentiaries and of the other states of the Union to
the congress will not meet with any difficulty.
In the Second College of Princes at Berlin, on the
16th, M. DE LYDOW was selected second Prussian Ple-
nipotentiary at Frankfurt, with M. DE RADowiTz. The
proposition of Prussia for the prolongation of the pro-
visional *ime was adopted unanimously, minus Nas-
sau and btu() Altenburg, the assent of which is still
expected.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
• The Cologne Gazette contains a letter from Hamburgh
of the 17th, stating that on that day a blockade of the
port of Kiel was to commence without any preliminary
notice. " The Danish men•of-war," says the letter,
have captured several commercial vessels. The com-
mander of the Skiold has given notice to the Consuls at
Kiel that the port could be speedily blockaded without
previous warning. The last Swedish vessels left on
the 16th."

On the evening of the 17th a corps of 2,000 Danes
entered Flensburg, and on the morning of the 18th a
slight skirmish took place between the outposts near
Bilschau. The Dates have also crossed over in force
from Alsen, and taken possession of the heights of Dup-
pell, iii the Sunderwitt. A serious collision between
the armies was expected every day. The Danish fleet
kopf up a vigorous blockade of the Schleswig-Holstein
harbours.
