DENMARK AND THE UNITED STATEs.-The Ber-
lin correspondent of the London Times writes as
follows in regard to the Sound Dues and the Bri-
tish naval force at the West Indies
According to private letter have received from
Copenhagen it is stated that the Danish Government.
under the twoold pressure of the partial relinquish
ment of neutrality by Sweden and the apparently in.
eytable conflict with the United States account OF
the Sound dues has decided upon making advances to
the Allies in the matter of the future campaign in the
Baltic. For some time the Government, s repre-
sentsd to me, wsvered between England and France,
to which of the it should make its advances and
the last decided for the former in consequence of
which special envoy is very shortly to be accredited
to London for the purpose of concluding treaty by
which England shall guarantee to Denmark the pos
session OF her West India Islands In of hostii
ties breaking between the United States and Dem
mark, which would naturally result from United
States vessel attempting to pass the Sound without
paying the dues it 10 apprehended by the Danes that
the first step taken by the Americana would be to lay
violent hands on the Danish Island of st. Thomas
The recent expedition of British naval forces to the
West Indies, az explained by our government to have
taken place for the purpose of protecting our own
territories there from piratical invasion, will throw
appearance of probability upon the idea that our
government may fall in with that view" ztaa
