THE DANO-GERMAN CONFERENCE.  • --The Morning Herald says—The Conference met on Thursday at one o'clock, and sat till five. All the members were present., We understand that the. German Plenipotentiaries demand the cession ot Flensburg and Duppeln, while the neutral Powers adhere to the line of the Schlei and the Panne' werke as the Danish frontier. It is stated that the representatives of Denmark desire that the German Powers and the neutrals should come to an agree." ment on the subject before calling upon Denntawl r to give her answer. A proposal was also made a accepted ad referendum for the proloation of the ng armistice fifteen days, on the condition that no further extension should take.place unless the basl!, of a peace was agreed to. The Conference Wl' meet again on Monday. The Times says—The Obstinacy of the Danis,h Government is likely to give the Conference mac'. trouble, and the meeting of the Conference on Thursday was not marked .by any very cheering Pr°. gress in the negotiations. With every desire ou the part of the representatives of the belligerent 'loofa ibis to come to some arrangement. it has been imposs for M. von Quaade and M. Kricter to do more than declare the will of the Ministers at home and their determination to reject such a compromise as was proposed on Saturday last. With praiseworthY severance the neutral representatives are stilton' deavouring to make the most of the time that tervenes before the resumption of hostilities. Thea business of negotiation is actively and daily carrie on, unofficial communications being continually el* changed, and merely put in an official form at the regular meetings of the Conference; hence it i 8 hoped that, by the next meeting on the 6th ins" the neutrals may be able to advance such reasons some such a compromise as that proposed on the 28th ult. as may induce Prussia and Denmark te 36cept it, not only as a basis for further negotiations, but as a sufficient ground for prolonging the annie' tice. The Times still urges a; compromise. . The Morning Post .says the suspension of arms fL3r another fortnight may probably be settled in t_ies affirmative on Monday next; but as to the gene' result we know now that the. English proposition, backed by the neutrals, is. a. failure. It remarlto that we have used, since last autumn, many Word! of warning, and even of menace, all of which hoc" been misunderstood; but the apparent policy of tbil country has not truly represented its feelings tendencies.... When it is too late, this will become apparent. We are again "drifting ;" again our re; luctance to enter the lists is interpreted as a sign e' weakness, of the preponderance Of the peace poll' and of influences which have in truth but a slender hold on the nation. With all our pretence of eeo. nomy and peace•at any-price, the people of this try are are but too readily bellicose when the moment comes, and it is rapidly approaching. We have 36' cepted the position of advising and controlling De,ll" mark ; we have seen her into her embarrassmen"s' and we must see her out of them. The Daily News states that no basis of peace 11 yet been accepted, and Thursday's meeting, inett, of diminishing, only increased the difficulties in way of an agreement. The same paper condelna' the exacting demand of the Germans.  The Duke of Newcastle continues to improve in health, and has greatly regained his lost strength.

The Garibaldi Working Men's Committee London have at last—much to the relief of the public—showed signs of approaching dissolutionl They have collected about £1,056 at the trifling cost of £370 for "expenses !" Of this sum £‘2so has already been sent to Garibaldi, while £434 remaills in hand—perhaps for further "expenses.'
