THE WAR IN EUROPE.

the Deace OF Europe a!S o'i' -"
rack Of an intermittent war that mas iaee' ~
me Danish peninsula since the days OF Tue
Crusades. Il grows ont Of popular Ilkes anu
ds)ikes. and seems to defy diplomacy lt
was settled finally some twelve years ago at Lon
don BY Austria France, England, Russia and
Prussia. On February lst, 1851, hostllltles
ceased. and Denmark resumed her control over
schleswig-Holstein On February lst, 1864,
an Austrio p ussian army or uses the Elder to
settle it again-and so there IS war.
The immediate question at issue IS the right
Of Denmark to incorporate the Duchy OF
Schleswig into the Danish Monarchy, which
was decreed in November last, but behind
this. there lies, what is really at the bottom OF
the dificulty-an aversion to DANISH rule
among considerable number OF the 1nhao-
itants OF both Duchies, and strong national
feeling throughout Germany, fraternizing with
this sentiment.
4 casual glance over the map will show that
HoEstein lies in close proximity TO the Ter
man States while Schleswig stretching ia
no into the peninsula Of Jutland is almost the
heart Of Denmark The people Of the Dutch
les have, however an origin different from the
Danes; r they spring, as We do, from the An
giles, aud they speak German. The Danes
obtained control of Schlesvig in the tenth
century and some time afterwards, Hosteln,
also passed into their possession. This pos
session was not always quiet. Sometimes
they would be wrested away, and again con-
troll over them would endure undlsturbed for
half century Just about century and q
halt ago the Duke of Gottorp who set up some
claim to Holstein was as great q nuisance to
the Copenhagen people as Prince Augustin-
burg is, in these times. Then George |, new
" transpIanted from Hanover to England,
and therefore next. door neighbor to the dis
putants settled the matter Ia conj junction VII h

to Denmark
When the Congress Of Vienna constructed
the map of Europe in 1915, the Dochy OF
Holstein was incorporated into the Germanlc
Confederation, the King of Denmark retain
ing his sovereignty over it as the Duke Of
Holstein Nothing was said OF Schleswlg,
and the Danes interpret this silence as a. denial
OF all claim on the part of that Dutchy to be
considered German, and4san acknowledgment
that it made part of the Danish body. All
then remained quiet until the revolutionary
terment of lS4S, when the revolutionary party
headed by the Prince Of Augustenburg de,
cIared the Dutchies independent and organized
q provisional government. The Prussians en-
tered Schleswig, and took the towns of Schles-
wig and Flensburg just as they are now intent
on taking them A year later the Schleswig-

stein Sonderburg- Glucksburg, or by The Duke

Holstein Sonderburg Augustenburg
The position Of the opposing armies IN this
campaign is thus described 'Ihe Danes OF
cupy line south Of the Schlei, from Eckerp-
forde TO Hol|ingstedt. Their left IS strength
ened by work extending from the bay OF
Eckernforde nearly to the Schei. Their main
force protects the town of SchIeswig, and their
left extends to the Danneweik, their whole
force, Of which very different estimates are
given, being spread over rather long line OF
defence. According to the report OF the Danish
commander. the Prussians had attacked his
outposts, and were advancing towards Mis-.
sunde, with the intention of forcing the pas
sage Of the Schlei. Missunde is on the south
bank Of the Firth, st the point where what
may be called the bay of Scheswig nalrows to
the dimensions of river. Ii is here that the
Prussians it seems, desire to cross in order TO
cut off the Danes from the sea.
Queen Victoria, in her speech on the assem-
bling Of Parliament, has given very significant
apprehensions as to the probable results from
this conflict, with her own children being actors
in this new European drama Besides, Louis
Napoleon does not let the the occasion 60 by
without exutation at the fact that Great
Britain, that spurned his appeal fora Congress
is to be party to thewarlike perplexity, while
France stands aloof, and watches the course

separation ana Representation"

This was the issue in this State two years
ago, and by the aid of rebel bayonets the
point was carried at the ballot-boX The
issue was, shall we have Il separation from
the Federdl gorcrmem and shall we have Il
representation IN the Confederate Congress /?
BY fraud and force the rebels carried this
point. And if there be class of men on
this green earth for whom we have no sym
pathy, it is that class of voters in Tennessee
who went for separation and representation.
But did these seccssionsts get what they
voted for? We should say they did, They
have been separated from their fathers,
brother, mothers, sisters and kindred, They
have been separated from their homes and
confined in camps and to the battle field for
two years, fighting but for to be defeated,
and in the end subugatcd They have been
separated from their corn cribs, hay stacks
and fence rails And it is rumorcd that
they have been separated from their dear
aiggersi
What about representation They have
been represented in the Richmond Congress,
They have been represented in every branch
of the rebel army, from Richmond to Texas.
They are represented in every grave yard
in the Southern Contedcracy They are nor
represented in every Northern prison, fitted
out for rebel soldiers. They are represented
in most Of the .iails and pcnitentarics of the
South And pardon our plainpess of speech
when we say that they are largely repre-
scented in hell.
Well, gentlemen, You have your fill of
separation and representation but weintcnd
you shall have more Of both blessings We
intend to press YOU to the wall, and to
.''.,-'-l = 49, n~"'to "ontont Won ShnIl
have what you voted for, and we, of the
Union side Of the question, will be the
judges ms to when you have enough!

4 Fixed Fact.

II any one fact lying in the future, can
be regarded as fred and settled, it is that
this wicked rebellion against God and man.
against freedom and humanity everywhere,
will be put down, The misery and destitu-
ton, the Generalization and disafTcction,
everywhere seen and felt in the South, point
to it. Their ruined credit deprecated
money, blasted fortunes dissatisfied and mu-
|tnous soldiers all toreshadow it. But if it
were mere question of physical endurance,
|of ncmec and muscle and blood and if all
the present rebelious States were united to
n man in their resistance to the power of
the Union, and if every man were resolved
o die rather than be subjugated, still the
result would be the same The government
md the people of the United States have
resolved to preserve the Union in all its in
cgrty and in all its power. The national
Rrmy has made the same high resolve
Never since the war began has the national
|ulsc beat so firmly and so confidently. The
cbellion will be put down, crushed out, and
hc stoutest hearted of the wicked conspira-
prs be suIjugdted or onnjhildted Yes, sub
igated or annihlatod are the words. If
hey will not submit, let them be crushed rs
utlaws Blood alone can atone for their
rriblc crimes. Let a terrific example be
ade. Let them, and their children. and
future generations be taught, with fire
I'd sword, that it is fearful thing to rebel
ithout cause against the laws of Just
bvernmcnt. Let the life, the integrity and
C majesty of the Union, our nationality,
preserved, if universal dcsolation, as if
the fiat Of God, everywhere cnshrouds
South. We must teach them, and all
10 come after them, that it is TOO costly n
ing to be a rebel. Then may we expect
