NEUTRAL POLICY OF THE NEW DANISH MINISTRY.
The new ministry are said TO nave resolved on
MAINTAINING the system of polly observed by the
former cabiIet as regards she Eastern question. II
is believed in Copenhagen that the KiEg imposed
this on the present ministry, on their coming into
understanding that M. de Scheel Ples,en consented
to leave his post of envoy at Stockholm 70 accep.
Il portfolio of the ministry for foreign affairs az
Copenhagen. Very little credit must be given
TO rnmors Of pretended negotiations between
the Danish government aud the two Western
Powers or that the latter are nsgiDg on us to
join the coalition. Nothing is known in the Off.
cial circles here Of any such pressing invita-
items. Indeed the commercial and Industrial classes
with us find the system Of neutrality adopted by
Sweden and Denmark so much to their interest
thst the small body OF ardent 1liti ia1s existing
thsiy clamors for more decided course of action.
IL is confidently stated. therefore, in the best quar-
tiers, ttat the ENJOYS at the different European
courts have been instructed wita the new year. 10
spprse the various foreign governments to which
they accredited, that the new ministry will un-
servedy Uphold the same system OF strict neutral
ity, should second campaign be opened In the
Baltic, which was impartiailv observed during the
past r,espondence Of the London Chronicle.
ROYAL PROMISES AND GREEK FAITH = SPEECH OF
KING OHIO.
In his speech on the opening OF the Chambers,
KIrg Ohio made the following illusions u the re-
cent irsuIrectioDary movements in his kingdom and
TO the position Of Greece in reference to the Russ
war;
Well known circumstances q accompanied by deplo-
rabe acts, have, for some time past led TO thsinte
ruptior Of relations with neighboring State, and
0ccasioLed materal losses to she commercial inter-
ests OF both countries. My government has unceas-
jDgy devoted Its attention 10 re- establishing rhess
relations and we hope that, thanks to the sincere
and kind co operation OF tne great Powers, the
allies Of the neighboring State, and whose noble
and ger eroos sentiments in favor OF Greece have
been strongly manifested, cur desires will be hap.
ply realized. In presence OF the formd ibls strug-
gle which has broken ont in the East consd srations
Of superior osder, derived from toe maofest inter-
esfs OF the nation, as well as from feeling OF gra
r.ude towards the Powers alluded to, have dictated
10 us the declaration OF strict neutrality. In firmly
sdhsriDg TO this sys EN-, we will neither permit nor
tolerate soythiog contrary 20 the honor and true
interests Of tie c0uuscy. We keep up friendly re-
aiioDs With all the Powers, without forgetting thss
the paramount interest OF Greece is TO draw from
the springs of European civilization all the benefits
which result from Them for society. Nothing, in
fact can be better suited to our situstion more
powerfully contribute TO the national glory, than g
good internal organization BY the aid OF the moral
and rel gious education Of youth, OF legislative and
governmental arrangements having for object soe
