A ST. PETERSBURG dispatch of the 22d says
that Russia, in view of the extensive emigra-
ton of the Mennonites, had concluded to ex-
empt them from military service, except as
hospital attendants The evident desire OF
Germany to absorb Denmark was exceedingly
irritating to Russia, which was not disposed to
allow that power thus to secure the key to the
Baltic.
THE report that he was engaged in promot
ing the absorption of Denmark is declared by
Bismarck to be unqualifedly false. Z
ACCORDING to a London dispatch of the
oath members of the recently-returned Aus
trian polar expedition had declared that ex-
plorations in the direction of the north pole
are hopeless of satisfactory results, and that
the reports of the existence OF an open polar
sea are untrue. London kilograms of the
25th say the Prince of Wales had accepted
the Grand Mastership of the order OF Free
masons. A London paper of the same date
states that the Car of Russia had lately sent
cordial and sympathetic lettersto Don Car
los. The Queen had concluded to pay the
private debts of the Prince of Wales, amount
ing to 100000.
THE members of the Austrian Arctic eX-
ploring expedition were accorded public re-
ception at Vienna on the 25th.
A MADRID dispatch of the 26th reports that
the Segre River, in the Province of Lerida,
Spain, had recently overfowed its banks,
causing great loss of life and property.
On the 27th terrible typhoon passed over
Hong Kong, China. A great number OF
houses and several vessels were destroyed
and over 1000 lives lost.
