THE CAUSE OF THE RECENT RESIGNATION OF THE
MIN1STRY-THE ACTION OF SIR CHARLES NAPIER
INV CLAIMANT TO THE CROWN
There are two versions given Of the cause of the late
ministerial cri sis in Copenhagen the first is That the
Danish Minister OF War failing to obtain the Kings con-

Hail. the Provisional Deputy Of tho Minister Of Justice
Auditor of the army, himself resigned, did the
other ministers The other version is that the resgna

throne. A London paper says Sin the vcissitudes
impossible that these preensons of the Prince may

the allies"
