The Provisional Government has called on all able-bodied men, between 20 and 25 years of age, to volunteer their services on behalf oF the “cause” of Schieswig-Holstein. The free corps men be- longing to Major Von der Tham’s division have already been organized and equipped as regular soldiers, and marched off towards the north, and itis hoped that this method of using them will meet with the approbation of the public generally. The intrigues of the Holstein elique have quite disgusted the public. In Altona, especially, the sympathy of the inhabitants has considerably cool- | ed, aud even the agitation for the organization of a fleet is likely to turn out a * nine days’ wonder.” Several companies of contingent troops of infan- uy have passed through Hamburg from Oldenburg wud Bremen to join the 10th army corps in Scles- wig, but otherwise there is positively nothing stir- ring. y : A postscript to this letter, dated 8 o’clock P.

This review was to take place near Buu; but there is some other cause suppored. The news is confirmed that the Danes have sent a flag of truce to General Wrangel to announce the bombardment of Flensburg, and consequently the sick and wouuded have been removed.

Several of the townspeople were wound: ed, but the officers managed to arrange the dispute for the moment." . Hanover is ina state of agitation, and commo- tions are of constant occurrence. Should further collisions take place between the military and the populace, a dreadful effusion of blood is appre- hended. The accounts from Norway are favorable to the Danish cause. A committee has been appointed by the Storthing or Diet to consider the question of Denmark and the German confederation. A motion was submitted to the Storthing by thi committee to the effect, “that it was necessary to employ the troops of the line,and the naval forces, as the King might deem fit, in the defence of Den- mirk against the Germaa confederation and Prus- sia, and for this purpose to place a sum of 260,000 specie doilars at his disposal in aid of such protec- tion.” ‘This was unanimously agreed to.

To-morrow ge June) is the auniversary of the death of the ueen (Louse) of Prussia. This day is devoted to pious duties by the royal family, who assemble for the occasion at Charlottenburg. The Prince of | Prussia has hastened his return, in order to be pre- sent at this solemn ceremony. , The Assembly met as usual this morning at eleven. After the usual preliminaries, the Presi- dent of the Council, Camphausen, rose, and in a concise and earnest manner replied to some ques- tions put to him yesterday, relative to the mission and departure of the Prince of Prussia M. Cam- phausen stated, that on the morrow of the events | of March, his royal highness’s friends had held it to be their duty to inform him that the public | were furiously excited against him. That menaces | were heard on every side, and that they considered his lite to be in danger if he should remain at Pots- | dam; that the Prince, yielding to these reports, | had remained in retirement at the Isle of Peacocks, | near Spandau, for two days, until the King visited him, and grounding his orders upon the Prince’s personal security, ordered him to proceed ona mis- sion to London; that his royal highness showed himself indisposed to ipa these orders, and would not consent to depart unless he received written commands to that effect from the King. These or- ders were consequently forthwith transmitted to him, and he departed. ‘The mission, continued M. Camphausen, with which his royal highness w: entrusted was to explain to a friendly court and go ernment the causes and nature of the ev nts that had oceurred—to draw closer the bonds of amity between the Prussian and British governments; also | to study the laws and constitutional principles | which give force, vitality, and prosperity to a free | people, and to acquaint himself as far as possible with all matters that might tend to the establish- | ment of aGerman marine. The Minister con- | eluded by earnestly declaring that, let what would | occur, he held himself responsible for the advice | given to the Prince, and that he should stand for- | ward as his smield and that of the dynasty. “As | to the Prince’s return,” added M. @amphausen, | “ministers, under other circumstances, might have hesitated, but they held it to be their duty to | see that the Prince next entitled to the succession | to the throne should be present, and contribute to | the modelling and consolidution of the constitution | that would guarantee the liberty of all the King’s | subjects, and secure the succession ot which the | Prince was the representative.” | This explanation was well received, the subject casiaen and ministers escaped with greater faci ty than was anticipated. M. Hansemann’s notice of a forced loan has caused no surprise, It was anticipsted that the voluntary loan would be a failure. It was a still- born experiment. Berlin is pertectly tranquil; more so in appearance than has been the case for | some days. Accounts from Pesth, of the 30th of May, state | that Prince Milosh Olrenowitz had been arrested at Agram, being implicated in the recent conspi- racy. | Naples, We have received accounts from Naples of as late a date as the 31st ult.

It is forbidden to every one, ithout excep- | tion, to post up or cause to be posted up any papera, printed or written, without permission from the proper | authorities. “Art. 2. Printed papers must bear the name of the printer, and writtea papers the name of the writer. | “Art. 3. The permission will be granted gratis by | the police on the guarantee of a printer known to the authorities. “ Before any printed paper or journal is published, a copy ought to be deposited with ‘the police. In case of contravention of the above articles, the offending par- | ties shall be punished by imprisonment and fine ; and in case of repetition of the offence, to a maximum of imprisoument and acorrectional fine. The authorities may even order the suspension of the journals which | offend, with right of appeal to the high criminal court within a delay of two days.’? Spain, Our accounts from Madrid are of the 3d instant. The insurgent bands which infested some districts Valencia had been either dispersed or extermi- nated. In Catalonia the Queen’s troops were re- ported tohave sustained a serious loss in an en- counter with the Carlists.

The Carlists are showing themselves in some strength in the north of Spain. Belytun, 2 ; Brussecsy June 8. It_is quite untrue that Count de Hamal, our charge d’affaires at Madrid, received his passports for having entered into a conspiracy for the over- throw of the Spanish government. The truth is, Coant de Hamal was recalled long ago, and M. de Jeager sent to supercede him. A royal ordon- | nance of the 5th inst., authorises the Société Géné- | rale to issue bank notes for 3,000,000f. This mea- | sure is intended to facilitate small mercantile tran- sactions. Russia, A letter from the Russian frontier in the Deutsche | Zeitung says :— | ~ Kuseia is lulling her neighbors with the assurance | that she does not intend to act on the offensive, but | will strictly abide by the defensive. She keeps her | 60.000 guards quietly in St. Petersburg, and thereby | leads her opponents to think that she Is not forming | any plans of attack. This, however, offers no guaran- tee »gainst the attack of Russia upon the rest of Eu- rope, which is now ina new era If Russia stands aloof | from a Danish intervention, it is manifestly because | she is unwilling to divide her powers, but will concen- | trate them in one point in Poland against the whoie | of the German frontier. In fact. we now see all the | ian belligerent powers directed against the Vietuin and the Oder, and a great number already cojlected on the Prnssian frontier, especially from Cracow and Thorn That the considerable corps of guards still r main at St. Petersburg, that reviews are held and prace- ful manceuvres are made there. is only entertained as | for the Russian fleet from Croastadt and Reval | nsport these chosen 60.000 troops in a very short | to the mouth of the Oder, and. landing them there, | tank the army in Poson and West Prussia, But is iot East and West Prussia flanked already by the im- mense Russian army at Kalish?

Mr. Hume followed the champion of protection in a desultory argument, but distinguished by his usual shrewdness and practical spirit. He asked the noble lord. who professed himself so warm & friend to com- merce, whether the way to increas# commerce was to throw impediments in the way of exchanges? For his | part, he was rathor surprised that the shipping inter- ost kad been able to hold up so long against the effect | of the lately abolished monopolies, Now that the hea. vy taxes on food. timber. and materials of all sorts used in the construction of ships had been removed, there was no pretence for saying that our shipowners would bs unable to maintain afree competition, and meet their rivals in every quarter of the seas. Great stress wax laid on the high wages paid to British seamen, and | constant reference was made to the rapid jucroase of American shipping; yet the wages of the Americans were higher than our own, and they could not supply single article conneoted with the outfit of a ship moro cheaply than ourselves, The South Sea whaling inter- ost had been reduced to ite present insignificance by the heavy taxes wnd injudisious regulations which cramped enterprise, The arguments of Mr, Young. in 1834 showed the depressing effet of the burdens to which the shipping interest was then subjected; celief had now been granted ®and it only remiiued to carry | ut iu this case the same principles already applied in other branches of industry with benefeial effect.

In some respects we had already the ad- vantage over them, our carrying ships taking far greater cure of their cargoes, and their habits of punc- tuality and despatch being more reliable ; our sailors had perhaps the greatest natural aptitude for the sea of any men in the world; the only drawbacks were of a moral kind, in the insubordination and drunkenness with which, he contended, they were justly chargeable, but which might be removed by that culture we had hitherto denied them. Repeal the nayi- gation laws, and you would do mors to bring out the natural qualities of your seamen than by any other They were a tax, nay, a pro- hibition, on the carrying of commodities; and he said that justice to our manufacturers and agricul urists entitled them to have the carriage of their commodi- ties conducted on terms of perfect facility. As regarded the statistical branch of the subject, he con- tended that we had no statistics which would bear in favor of the protectionists. In spite of the unwise re- strictions under which we bad laid our shipping, British tonnaye had increased in a ratio more rapid than that of any other tonnage. What the camel was to the Arab of the desert, or the horse to the ‘Tartar, the ship was to the Englishman. In passing, Mr. Cob- den defended, against the attacks of Lord George Ben- tinek and @her speakers, the returns furnished by the statistical department of the Board of ‘Trade, on the correctnoas of which he placed absolute reliance Mr. Disrakut, in reference to the taunt thrown out against the protectionists by the First Lord of the ‘Treasury, of reasoning in a vicious circle, contended that the legislation of the country was now proceeding, under the auspices of the Manchester school of politi- cal economists, in a renlly vicious circle. Having de- prived so many interests of certain advantages, and pursued a course of theoretical legislation, which had terminated in practical misery, it would be against every principle ef justice contrary to that can- dor and fairness #0 characteristic of Englishmen, that you should not apply to every other interest the same merciful interposition which bad produced such bene- ficent results, He was content to leave this viclvus circle to the sentence of that irritated public opiaion which would not long hesitate in expressing its con- victions. Formerly the honorable member for the West Riding had promaed them perpetual advantage; but now he said it was but just that we should all take our share in universal disaster, Having kept up for some time a well directed fire of epigram at the expense of the promulgators of free trade doctrines, Mr Disraeli proceeded to grapple with Vir, Cobden's statements, rather avoiding a conflict of general argument, but se- lecting weak points of detail with ali the skill of a prac- tised master of fence. H» exposed the hollowness of some authorities whose evidence Mr. Cob- den had quoted, attacked him for his very hetero- dox notions on the subject of our maritime supre- macy,” and defended the character of British seamen on the ground that the same imputations might be made with at least equal justice upon any | other class of our workmen. Government now asked the house, upon no sufficient ground, to abrogate the ancient national system under which our navigation had hitherto been conducted—founded on definite princivles, directed to the attaiument of certain definite ends, which were not the objects and ends of shipbuilders and shipowners It was said that the carriage of our export trade was not protect- et we competed; why then should we protect the carriage of the import trade?

For the 14th of July, the last price was 8444. Attention was chiefly directed to the Settlement. which took place to-day, and the dulines: of the market was increased by the pupply of stook proving abundant. Bank stock left off 191 to 193; Re- duced Three per Cents, §2% to %; Three and a Quar- ter per Cents 83% to %; Long Annuities, 8% to 9-16; and India Bonds, 17s to 20s premium. Exchequer bills were in demand, many small purchases taking place, it is believed, on French account, and the quotation ad- vanced to 36s to 40s premium. ‘'here wus also some inquiry for United States Stock, arising probably from a similar cause. Foreign securities have varied very little this after- noon, and prices still exhibit a depressed appearance.

The quiet of the city was still preserved, >t it remained under martial law, and a foverish an: sty was universal. The report of the assassination of the king turns out, of course, to have been wholly unfounded. From Palermo and Messina the dates are to the 20th of May, but they bring nothing of much importance report that the citadel of Messina isin the power of the people is shown to be untrue. and the inhabi- tants were still uncertain, from day to day, how long Xostilities on the part of the Neapolitan garrison aight be delayed.

The notes of the Bank of Vienna also continued to circulate freely as a lezai tender in all the provincesandin Hungary. and the premium on specie had fallen to 17 per cent. ‘Whether the Assembly convoked tor the 26th inst., will meet at that time should the Emperor not return, seems 10 te doubtful, “Intelligence that the self-constituted Scla- vonie Congress at Prague had formed a kind of provi- sioval government, had created tome uneasiness; but it was understo:d that their intention was only to guard the nationality of the sclavonie provinces pending the deliberations at Frankrort, and that no ides was enter- tained of attempting a -eparation.

In the produce market this week there ‘has been ra- ther less business. All parties connected with the su- oe trade have evinced much anxiety as to the proba- le result of the representations to Parliament of the Sugar Planting Committee, which it is expected will be made known towards the end of next week; and as the sugar market. according to custom, will not be open on Tuesday, it was proposed this morning that it should be closed for the entire week. This, however, did not mest the views of all parties, and the market will con- fequently re-open as usual on Wednesday next.

[From the European Times. June 10.] Trade has been slightly depressed during the past week, owing to the renewal of political agitation both in England and Ireland, and tho less favorable tenden- cy of our continental advices. The produce markets have been less buoyant ; holders are rather anxious to realize, and prices have consequently a declining ten- dency. Large supplies of all kinds of produce are brought forward for sale, but this is owing in greater degree to the late advance in price than to a want of confidence on the part of merchants as to the future state of the trade and commerce of the countyy. The corn trade is without any improvement; on the con- trary, a further depression in the value of most arti- clos, whilst lictle business has been transacted. There is also a further decline in the value of cotton, and the sales are limited. The general aspect of commer- cial affairs on the continent continues dull and unsat- | isfactory. but in some respects a slight improvement ia perceptible, There isa further increase in the supply of money. and the rate of interest yet tends down- wards, ‘The state of tradein the manufacturing dis- tricts wears a discouraging aspect.

The present quota- tions of the Committee of Brokers are for fair Mobile 43d, and 45d for fair Orleans. We may remark that the accounts brought by the steamship Cambria, which arrived here on Tuesday last, do not appear to have had pear that the period for low purchasing at the transatlantic ports had passed away. at least for tho present, The sales of the past week are 288 bales more than that of the preceding, but the imports about 54.826 bales less —not more than 21.372 bales having arrived, Accord ing to the returns, published last evening, the stock of cotton in Liverpool, is now estimated at 511,770 bales, being 15,230 bales more than it was at the same time in 18 ‘e extremely fine growing weather which continues to prevail, exercise a very depressing effect on the grain trade in all parts of the United Kingdom ; and should it contioue for a few weeks longer, until the wh has passed that critical period of its zenith, som,’ prices would no doubt decline still further, At Mark-lane, on Monday last. holders of wheat acceded toa reduction of 1s, to 2s. per quarter, The selling price of the best English being quoted at 49s. to 55s ; and American at 463. to 488. per quarter On the fol- lowing day, in Liverpool, holders of wheat submitted to adecline of 2d, to Sd per 70 Ibs.

The sugar markets have deen less active during the week, but prices are. on the whole, pretty well sustain- ed. The decrease in the arrival of sugar at London already amounts to nearly 40,000 tons, the deliveries are rather greater than they were in the former year, whereas the stock is smaller; from the places of produc- tion shipments are not half that of 1847. Yet, not- withstanding these strong facts. prices still range from 5s to 7s below those of the same time last year. The, trade, however. look forward to an improved demand and higher prices, when the quantity on offer will be much le-s than at present. Holders of molasses act with firmness, and although few sales aro reported, prices are well sustained. The manufacturing districts do not yet exhibit much more activity than last reported.

But this is not the only instance of the deteriorated value of property. The refinery of M. de Meulemeister, in the centre of the city of Ghent, had lately been disposed of for only 24.000f., or rather tone thaw, #1000 sterling, being much below its original cont. The most serious circumstance related of the uneasy state of fevting in Prussia, in consequence of the re- ceut events thero, is the great number of families which have lately left Berlin. amounting, it is ed. to no less than 13,000, and which it is o 'yincreasing.
