PROGRESS OF Tz5E WAR an EC-
ROPE.

ROPE.
Our latest accounts from Europe represent
Denmark as unwilling to join in the proposed
Conference. The Federal Diet of Germany seems
to be equally opposed to the scheme, and it is
therefore likely that the Conference will be put
of, and the war go on. There is no prospect OF
its speedy termination. The Danes can easily
defend themselves on the islands, and they can
afford TO walt for new complications, which
time will be almost sure to bring, and which can
hardly foil to improve their chances.
II is the prospect Of these complications, not
the actual war iu Schleswig, which keeps up u
feyerish excitement sll through Europe. In
England the Tories are maneuyering with great
energy and, as il scems with considerable sill,
against the cOncliatory aud compromising
policy Of the Ministry and are trying THEN best
to create a war feeling.
Austria and Prussia endeavOr 10 keep on good
terms with England. Both Governments have
taken occasion 10 renew their Assurance that
they are still willing to recognize King Christian
TX. as Duke of Schleswig and Holstein, if Dem
mark is willing to give to them the demanded
guarantees with regard 10 en independent adj
minislration of the Duchies. The Emperor of
Austria, in reply TO al address from depata-
ton of Schleswig retables, expressly said that
Providence had Imposed upon BIN duties
which he could not subordinate 10 wishes
threatening the general peace OF Europe" Wo
think il may be regarded "a certain that both
Governments arc determined 10 carry through
their plan, so long as they feel able TO prevent
general European war.
What kind of guaranty the two Powers will
dem and from Denmark has not yet been OH
cially stated. That il includes closer union
between at least the German districts Of Settles
wig and Holstein, and the establishment OF a
merely personal union between the Duchies and
Denmark, seems 10 be certain. But, according
to some papers. Austria il also proposing to d.
vide schleswig, unite the purely German dis
tricts with Holstoin ard the purely Danish with
Denmark, and lot tho mixed districts declare
their preference by means of general suffrage.
IL il fortunate for Austria and Prussia that
there is not, at present, among '"o "'i''i
Princes Of Germany Victor Emanuei ready
TO lend his name as rallying point for the Ma
tional Union movement, and that among the
progressive party of Germany there has not yet
.pp.ara. a Garibaldi always ready TO place
himself at the head OF party OF ecticn. The
Legislatures OF tho States and the numerous
meetings which are held in all parts Of the
country, show uuanimity which even exceeds
that of the Italians in tho year ls5S, and it
seems 10 BIO certain That the majority of the
people would not even shrink from an open
war against the Governments Of the two great
German States.
No less excitement than in Germany prevails
in Italy, in Hungary and in Galcia. The latter
province has been declared in a state ofsiege,
because insureetionary movements have been
discovered. In Hungary, and particular among
the Hungarian soldiers of the Austrian army,
a proclamation of Kossuth is freely distributed,
promising a speedy deliyerance from Austrian
rule through an alliance with Italy.
Tie report that Italy had rendered 40, 600
troops TO England, in case the latter Power was
willing TO assist the Danes, is contradcted, but
the determination Of the Italian Government
and people to use the first suitable opportunity
to hasten to the deligerance Of Vcnctia is as
strong and outspoken as ever. But, faithful TO
her policy in the past, she heSitates to move
without having first ascertained the intentions
of Louis Napoleon, who, as yet, gives 40 indi-
cation Of the policy he intends topursuc.
