LIST OF LETTERS, ELM AINING in the Nevada city Post , Office on Montay, Feb. 22. 18 4.— letters Au. remainmg inthe Post Office more than one week will be advertised. in a war involving the greater portion of Europe: Every effort has been made by —Englund-to—prevent.a—resort tu arms~ but _ without effect. Late advices state that Denmark bad an army of 75,000 men in the field, with Austria and Germany against .thend. An engagement had beer fought in, which the Germans were repulsed. The contention comes about in this way.— When the late KingFrederic IX ascended -the throne in 1848, the Duchies revolted, . eatching the fire that then filled Europe ‘with Yevolutiou, and after'a war of two or three years, were subdued. He was childleas; and his nearest kin was an tncle fif. teen years glder than himself, also childless. Qa their death the male line of the Danish sovereigns would become-extinet} and then, unless the established law of succession + shouid be abandoned, the kingdom would . go to pieces, Denmark going to one rela» tion, ahd the Duchies to another. The Great Puwers.who claim the right to preserve the peace of Europe held « conveation in 1852, and determined to transfer the right of auccession in both: parts of the monarchy, to aPrince who by birth would : -aucceed -to_neither. They determined that Prigce Christian, who was a simple cadet, of the-Glucksburg branch of the family, children. This>selection was made because the Prince Auguetenburg, the nearest relax tion, in the war of 1848,~had taken the German side, and endeavored to-rend the kivgdom, while Christian, more distant in blood, though a Geiman, had taken the Danish side, and went for the unity of the country. This unity the Great Powers not only desited, but bad time and again previously affirmed ; and now they determined to maiutain it, though the Duemes had never agreed te it; and they would net agree to it by the treaty of 1852, preferring to avail thems selves of the chance Which the extinction of the House_of Denmark -gave-theurte dissolve the union and revert to Germany, -with which they were allied by bloud and sympathies. The Prince of Augustenburg, the father of the present claimant to the Dukedom, however,-assented to it, in cons sideration of the sum of $150,000; The kingdom of Denmark, by the King and Parliament, agreed to it. Thus, Christian becomes, by virtue of the treaty of the Great _ Powers, King of both: Denmark and the Duchies. He is King of Denmark also by the _aareement of the people to that arrangement. . ~~ Bat the Duchies “affirm, first, that they are Stutes uf their own right, and capabdie of self-government; second, that by the law their rulers come ia the male Jine of succession; and, third, that other nations have no power to imposeupon them arbitrarily a ruler, even though the nearest male—kin sheuld sell his birth-right. ‘To maintain their positions each party is in the field; Christian bucked by Sweden that aympathisea with him eafnestly, and by France, Eng~ land and Russia which have guaranteed his claims; and the Prinee of Augustenburg, gon of him who renonnced for $150,000. with the Duchies, claming him as their le. . gitimate ruler, and that elaim eupported by the Gerinan States. Austriaaud Prussia are by this arrangement brought toa queer eondition } ne parties to the treaty of 1852, they bavé agreed to stipport the King of Denmark; but as members of the German Confederacy they are bound by its votes to go for the Prince of Augustenburgs and theré eapeciaily ate the sympathies of the King of Prussia, who is glad of this crisis, as it turus bis own people to something else than bis own governmenti Tt will be remenibered that Christian IX. 1s. father-in-law of the Prince of Walea ;. but the very firat person to goon the other side was the Duke of Saxe Coburg, who is uncle to the Prince of Wales, and whose heir is Prince Alfred of Englind ; and Prussia that . supports the enme side against England, is connected by the warfore of the heir appareat ta Ah Sa oysl of England. ‘Thue Queen Victoria and the Prince of Wales are for Denmark; and the brother of the late Prince Albert, whe hittself betd to the German view, and the Queen's oldest daughter Fy joan which shull shed abroad a new and glorious light, beaming with immortal hopes, and penetrating to the farthest verge of the habitable globe. Nature, in every form of benignant usefulness and unequalled grauduer, invites us to this tremendous task. ‘The loyal people of the nation have nut been insensible to these mystic calle and the noble anticipations growing out of them, fraught as they are with the happiness and progress of the humanrace.
