Tbe Archduke, on the other hand, does not ‘stem to see it.’” and. appreciating the uncertainty of all things Mexican, rato have at least two strings to his bow,and to old on to all he is entitled to Emperor: Napoleon was telegraphed as soon as this difficutty assumed ite present serious shape, and the younger brother of Maxi- mailian, the Archduke Leopold, and the Baron de Meyren- berg, Secretary of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. imme. diately started for Trieste Considerable excitoment exists in Vienna relative to the matter, and tho Emperor Napoleon is baving frequent interviews with the Austrian Ambassador, doubtiess on the subect.

It certainly seems strange that so important a mattor as that which is 1 leged to be the cange of this difficulty should have been left unsettled until the last moment — It is probable there ig something more tn all this than a more family quarre!

Mr. and Mrs Maxi maltian may never greet their faithful gfexican subjects yet. We shall know in a day or two what the Diet mean to do with the English preposition for a conference to meet in London on the 12th instant. It is not probable, bow- ever, that it the conierence assembles without any pre- liminary basis of action, it will be able to settle the Danish difficulsy and put an end to the war. Foxland will demand a return to the treaty of 1862; Prussia and Austria, a separate administration of the duchies, with a mere personal union under the King of Denmark; while now it is well known that M. Dronyn de Linys bas just addressed a circular to the English government and: tho other Powers which signed the treaty of 1562, in which the vote of the populationg ef the duchies is proposed a8 the only solution of the Danish difficulty. This seems now to be the only mode of bringing about a peace; and this would inevitably result in the choice of the Duke of Augustenburg as the ruler of Schleswig Holstein, very much to the delight of the secondary States. who would thus gain an ally, and exceedingly to the disgust of Austria and Prussia, who would thus have another opponent to their centralizing desires. The Emneror Napoleon, seeing in the choice of the Doke of Augusten- burg an opportunity to put another check upon Austr and Prussia, will never yield this point by a plebiscite in tbe duchies; and if Francis Joseph does thwart the Emperor's Mexican scheme, war between France and Austria may be much nearerthan wo have besa thinking for. ‘The French courts, in trying criminals, do not seem to see the force of the advice of Mrs, Glass about the hare, and formal trials and condemnations of accused persons who do not put in their apperance are by no mous uncommon, Mazzini was yesterday tried and condemned in this manner before the Assize Court for participation in the recent plot against the life of the Emperor.

The Siege of Fredericia Converted into a Blockade—Bloody Engagement at Duppel—Losses of the Prussians—A Sec- ond Edition of Sebastopol—The Peace Conference—Politi- cal Phantasmagoria, &c., &c. It je difficult to got trustworthy information from the seat of war, a8 no private reporters are admitted eliher to the Austrian or the Prussian camp, and official accounts are never distinguished for their strict adherence to truth; but from the progrees of ovents it is evident qhat things are not going on 80 swimmingly as we wero led to anticipate by last woek's telegrams. The bombardmont of Fredericia on the first two days was reported as being #0 destructive that, if continued for a day or two longer, the Danes would either have to capitulate or to evacuate the fortress; but since them the cannonade bas proceeded for several days without making any per- ceptible impression. The summons of Marshal Wrangel to the Danish Governor bas been rejected with contempt, and we hear now that the Prussian corps has with- drawn to some distance from the town, and left the task of blockading it to the Austrians. ‘The only con- clusion to be drawn from these facts is, that the project of carrying on the siege of Duppel and Fredericia simulta- neously has been abandoned, and that the Allies intend ‘wo concentrate their energies against the former position, while they content themselves with investing the latter and preventing the garrison from undertaking such a coup de main as they’ performed in 1849. By this change of plans the Allies will have the advantage of being able to employ a number of troops in the attack of Duppel, the capture of which is ‘undoubtedly of far greater importance than that of Fred- ericia; but on the other band the Danes are relieved from the necessity of defending two fortresses at once, and have reason to congratulate themselves upon the efforts of the enemy having been diverted from the weaker of the two and directed exclusively against the one which they have been doing their utmost to render impregnable. At Duppel, too, operations have been languishing for some da: Tho idea of taking the formidabie inirench- ments by storm appears to be finally given up, and the almost total cessation of hostilities after the action of the 17th is ascribed to the vast preparations thatare required before commencing a — singe.

The Dantsh War. © FFICIAL ACCOUNT OF THB PRUSSIAN ATTACK UPON DUPPEL, ‘ Beruy, April 1, 1864, The offcial Staatsanceiger of to-day gives the following account of the engagement in the trenches before Duppel on the 28th ult, — It was intended to press back the enemy's outposts behind his intrenchments, in order to maxe undisturbed use of the ground required for the siege worke. Thanks to the extracrdinary valor displayed by the troops, al- though for the first time closely engaged and almost without intermiasion exposed to the fire of heavy artil- lery, the intention was perfectly attained, At daybreak the fusileer battalion of the First Porem infantry regiment, No. 18, moved up from the right of the road leading to Sonderburg, while the First and Second battalions of grenadier guards regiment No. 8 advanced past Oster-Duppel. Without firing a shot they rushed upon the enemy and forced him to retrent. After ashort but severe bayonet fight our troops established themselves in the rifle pits at the foot of the glacis, The enemy now opened a murderous fire against this position from all bis works, covering the field with grape apd all kinds of projectiles, while the Rolf Krake steamed into the Weanmgbrod, close up to the right wing of our ekifmnisbing troops, and’ fired into the flank and rear of the fusileers with grape and schrapnel. A Danish field battery at the same time came out of Fort No. 6, and opened with grape upon the guards fight ing on the left wing, and its fire was support. cq by columne of infantry, which appeared at the same moment, Under these circumstances it was thought ad- visable to give up the extreme and exposed position at the foot of the glacis, The Kightcenth regiment, however, still held the slopes, about three hundred paces in ad- vance of the position oceupied before the attack; the wards partly their original position, partly ihe ground rther in advance to the north of Duppel ‘This position Is still maintained, The Brandenburg Fusileer regiment, No. 35, which had beon thrown forward to the Buffel Koppel, was not brought into action, as the object was already attained, and the Danes, after the Rolf Krake had received four shots from our batteries and had with- drawn, contented themselves with keeping up the fire from their wor! short time longer. The troops behaved admirably. They advanced with great impetuosity, endured the extraordinarily violent fire with much valor, and were in no way dispirited even by the comparatively heavy boss. ‘The ened loxt kixty-one in prisoners and a consider. able number of killed and wounded, the precise amount cannot as yet be stated. Our loss, also’not yet exactly certatned, amounts to about one hundred and fifty men. The names of tho wounded officers have already been for- warded by telegraph. It may be added that Lieutenant Kasper, of the Eighteenth, stated to be slightly wounded, is now reported missing. Hamrcra, April 2, 1864, It is said that the Austro-Prussian troope intend to turn the position of Duppel by crossing over to the islaod of Alsen very shortly by means of Austrian pontoons, Everything is said to be prepared for an important action. The Hamburger gNachrichten announces that six thou sand Danes have beaten the Prussians near Veile, at the positions lately abandoved by the Austrians Hanover, April 2, 1864.
