litical incident OF the week has bean
the discovery OF an Orleanist plot

which, whilst they do not appear to
implicate any person, afford the Paris

editorials.
The President returned to Paris on
Thursday. In his tour he is said to
have been attended with brilliant
success. Some ol his friends have
commenced to agitate the question
OF allowing him another three mil

as is understood. OF prolonging the
power Of the President. OF the SO

Advices from Hamburg Of the 18th,
state that the Holstein army made
forward movement with the inten-
ton OF attacking Fer6eld bridge
across the Schlye at Messemae. The
Danes were driven from their unforti-
fed position at Koshendorffe and
other points, into their entrench-
ments. They then cannonaded the
Holsteins about an hour, but without
effect. When the firing ceased and
they began To retire, the Danes re-
placed the bridge which they had
previously removed, and crossed
over with the intention OF harrassing
the retreat of the Holsteins, but they
found them so strong as TO render it
unadvisable to press them closely.
Gen. WillisOn took possession of
Eckenford and established his head
Iquerters at that town, but was forced
to retire, owing 10 the near proxim-
'Iity OF the Danish ships. The army
bivoucked at points somewhat in ad-
vance Of their position, and on the
following day the Danes still declined
to give battle, so they re-occupied'
the position which they formerly
held, and up to the 18th no farther
movements had been made. The
Holsieins loss was about l49, and
the Danes about 10 men.
The Germans have been occupied
during the last week with the sudden
and precipitate fight oil the Prince
of Hesse-C -Casell. Disputes having
arisen between himself and the
Chamber as to bis right to impose
taxes without the consent Of the lat
ter, and the people having obtained
the sanction Of the legal tribunal to
their resistance Of the illegal tax inn
posed by the government, the Prince
found the place too hot TO hold him,
and fled. The Hessians appear to be
getting along very we'll without the
Elector and his infatuated Ministers,
and it is said to be probable that the
other States will shortly follow their
example.
