mentioned in former communication that l
had reason to believe that movement was pre-
pairing in Denmark, and that the 9Th Of June, the
anniversary Of the Danish constitution, had been
selected as the day for great popular demonstrar
ton. 1t appears that the Danish government has
been informed of the intended demonstration, for
we learn by telegraph that coup detat has taken
placed at Copenhagen, and that all the opposition
journals have been indicted for treason. We-have
no details yet of this coup d'ttat. Fermentation
has reached its pitch in Denmark and revolution
may not be improbable, which, If successful, would
be followed by declaration OF war py tue Danish a
bly he followed In Sweden and Norway. The Scan
di1ayian States never had so favorable an oppor-
tunity of throwing of the yoke OF Russian in
6uence.
Something like activity is now evident among the
expeditionary forces OF Turkey. Lord Raglan,
Marshal ST. Armand and Omer Pacha held coun-
Gil of war at Varna, and then all started together
for Shumla. Three English and three French regi-
ments had left the camps at Gallipoi and Scutari
for Adrianople, and more were to follow. Russia
must now be well aware that the entente between
France and England is not o sham, and that more
over both powers are determined to act with ener-
gy. OF this, Austria and Prussia are also now aware
and Austria evnces wish to throw OH Russian in
fuence but both powers in despite Of their again
signing protocol (No. g. with France and Eng
land, are not to be trusted. They will do Russia
good turn if they can 1t is currently reported that
Austria has sent declaration to the Car to say
that if he does not give IN ana Withdraw WI, rom sa
compelled to join the Western Powers. assure you
in high quarters here, the protestations OF good
will Of Austria tOwardsthe policy OF the Western Pow
ers are credited and it is believed she will utl-
mately join them, but caution in this instance is
certainly advisable.
Prussia is more honest in so much, as the king does
not conceal his aversion to an active cooperation
with France and England Rumors are again cur
rent that King Frederick William will be compelled
to abdicate. There exists strong popular feeling
in Prussia against the supremacy OF Russian iniu-
Reyel and Cronstadt fall, the result of this feeling
cannot be accurately predicted. The Russians
themselves alarmed and are getting tired OF the
pressure which has been laid SO heavily upon them
Louis Napoleon has ordered another camp to be
formed at Boulogne. The sappers and miners have
already arrived there to make the preliminary ar
rapgements. A French army on the Rhine is no
improbability. All Europe is, in fact, armed to the
teeth.
Silistria still holds out, It is astonishing that no
attempt has been made to relieve the gallant garr
eon Of that most important fortress, which is the
first step towards the Balkans. 1t ia no great dis
lance from Shumla, where OmerPacha' main army
is assembled. There is report that ten thousand
men have arrived to its relief but this report re
quires confirmation. The Geographic dispatches
via Vienna are not to be trusted. They all emanate,
more or less, from Russian sources. Thus the re-
port that Nicopolis, Turtukai and Sistowa are oc-
Cuped by the Russians, is not true Count Buol
Schauenstein, the Austrian Prime Minister is mar
red to Baron Meyendorfs sister, there is sort Of
entente between the br othersin-law. General Mey-
erhafer has left Vienna, on diplomatic mission to
Berlin and st, Petersburg. From the shilly-shally-
ing displayed by both German Powers, any reason
able being must come to the conclusion that nei
tier Austria nor Prussia have any inclination what
ever to wage war against Russia.
The conference of the minor German States ut
Bamberg has opened, but the proceedings have not
TRANSFERRED. The Austro- Prussian treaty is regarded
here as wastepaper, being liable to any sort Of con-
struction. The document to the Diet is more i'm
pOrtant.
It has been decided to create new portfolio or
ministry in England. Hitherto the Duke of New
castle has been Minister Of War as well as Minister
OF the Colonies. He is to have his choice This
ston is spoken Of as Minister of War. This would
scarcely please Russia or Austria. You know the

Sidney Herbert would then take the Home Office,
and Newcastle keep the Colonies. Nothing has,
however, been finally settled yet.
If you had been at EPSON last Wednesday you
would scarcely have supposed that England was at
war with powerful enemy. The Derby went Oft
with its usual ecat and the winning horse Andover
was far greater parsonage than either the Gar,
the Emperor Of Austria, or the King Of Prussia.
Parliament did not meet, and many Of our good
London citizens closed shop for the races.
Two strange steamers, barkrigged, with white
tunnels, one with large square flag at her maintop
masthead, have been telegraphed up Channel, in
side the Eddystone. The King Of Portugal is sup
posed to be on board one Of them. The royal
carriages are waiting for him. he comes on visit
to the Queen and Prince Albert, his cousin.
The last advices from Madrid express the hope Of
an amicabe settlement of the Black Warrior bust
ness. letter from Genoa says that the Spanish
squadron in that port had received orders to weigh
for Cuba.

Raglan, st. Armand and Omer Pacha, the English,

about the conduct of the war. II is believed that
the plan they have adopted is to defend the Balkans
