At home or abroad, they are honest, sociable, amiable, and witha | simplicity of churacter that presents a delightful | contrast to the exaggeration of the French, or Ita- | lians, or the coldness of the English. We arrived in Vienna at night, by railroad from | Cilly, and across the S'ynen Mountains. Oa reaching the city gate, 1 was very much amused witha scene between two officers of the police, who quarrelled whether we should be considered contraband or not. They took down Mr. B’s trunk and'openedit; they founda letter addressed 1o Count Nesselrode, the Minister of Foreign Af- | fairs for the Empire of Russia; another picked | out one addressed to M. Guiaot, and immediately cried “bravo!” and let us pass without further | trouble of searching. All the hotels were crowd- ed, within the city walls; but we found very or, indeed, I may say in Europe, and [ should ad- vise all who visit Vienna to stop there. The son | of the gentleman who keeps the house is quite an accomplished, handsome, young man, talks Eng- lish fluently, and is very attentive to all who visit the house. He gave me a very handsome piano in my room, and also supplied me | that jit is not improbable that they really Indeed, the kind- | intend to subvert the present government with music while there. ness of the Viennoise I shall long remember. Mr. Stiles, the American Minister, called | on us as soon as he ascertained we were there, | and showed us a good deal of attention. He is a most gentlemanly and amiable man, and very mutch liked. Mr. and Mrs. Schwartz also called on us. They areGermans, but he is American Con- sul. I took a drive round the Prater, in the beau- | tiful coach and four of an American gentleman, who not only prides himself on his beautiful horses, and his handsome Hungarian coachman, but on his mechanical inventions, one of which | he received a patent for. He is known there by the name of the handsome American mechanic. In the educated society in Vienna, French, English, and Italian are spoken as much as Ger- man, in fact more so. 1 went one evening toa musical soirée, and on entering the room the lady of the house came up and adtressed me in | formed in the finest possible mann English, (ard not broken English,) bat as perfect | ‘'Eton Boy,” will conclude the evening’s entertain- as ifshe had spoken it all her life.

We also heard young Strauss, who bids fair to be a mval toh's father, and a good deal of jealousy exists between them ; they leok more like brothers than father and son. Ithink, my dear madam, by this time you are ready to fear I shall never conclude, and will par- don an abrupt eonclusion. } Yours, H. A. B. The French and sh Designs on Mexico. We recently published some very important information that we received from our correspon- dent in Havana, in regard to the reported designs of the French and Spanish governments on Mexi co, and the probability that those governments ac- tually intended to establish a monarchy in that country, end"place the Infant Don Enrique on the throne. This intelligence was extensively copied by our cotemporaries, and was much remarked upon wherever it appeared. We published it as we received it, merely re- marking that the evidence that is set forth was sufficient to warrant the conclusion that these governments realiy had some designs on Mexico. Since then we have found additional facts and conclusions to support the proposition, and pro- ceed to give them in their order. 1. The French have at this moment four or five which has an immense commerce with Mexico, and is deeply interested in the result of the pre- States, sees no necessity tor having more than two. 2.

Aletter from Paris, dated January 80th, pub- (the French) government in the affairs of Mexico,” Tosay the least, these circumstances, as well as those which we published a few days since, favor the supposition that the affairs of Mexico are now receiving the consideration of Spain and France, to say nothing of England, and of Mexico, and establish a monarchy on its ruins. If such be the case, their ultimate object is plain. They will do it with the view of checking and overawing the United States. We leave our readers to form their own con- Theatricals. Panx Turatre.—This is the last night but twe of the engagement of Mr. Edwin Forrest, a fact, that all patrons of the drama and sdmirers of high and lofty talent and histrionic acquirements, should bear in mind. Notwithstanding the dreadfully unpropitious state of the weather last eveniog, the honse was tolerably well filled with a respectable and select sudience. No other actor in the United States could have drawn eo large a house, in spite of so greatan obstacle as heavy in ceseant rain, which has invariably acted not only ase damper, but as qn extinguisher on public amusements in this city This evening this great actor will sppear as Metamora in tho Indian tragedy of that na The cust is admirable, and such as will insure its being per- The farce of the ments. Boweny Tweatae.—So great hes been the success that attended the drama of “ Margaret of Burgundy, or La Tour de Nesle,” es well as the Scottish romance of “ Wallace, tho Hero of Scotland,” that both of these great pieces will bo repested this evening. We must remind the patrons of this theatre, that we believe this is the last night of the engagement of the great tragedian M Conner, who has performed here with such great success recently. The drama “ Sixteen String ighwayman of Hounslow,” will conclude nts. The manager, ever alive of his patrons, gives notice that ly luce @ grand scenic and dramatic spectacle, which he is preparing at great expense. From the taste and discrimination that he has rto evinced, we 0 doubt that it will receive as much success as did the several other grond scenic displays that he has produced.

New Yonx, Fatnay Arreanoon, March 26. The weathor during the greater part of the day proved very inclement, and in a measure suspended all out door operations. The casterly and southerly winds which have prevailed for the last day or two, have brought in about forty square rigged vessels, chiefly from the West Indies and Southern ports. Under the impression the; freights might ‘exporience some further abatement, the market, for Breadstuffe, wpe firm at previous rates. 1; was believed, that if the present rain reached Albany the river would be spoedily opened. Small sales of Gc- nesee were made at $7 6%; Philadelphia sold at $6 62)45 and considerale of Gene: &c , were made to ar tive in May, &c., at former rates. A lot of Pennsylve_ nia wheat sold at $1 40, and anothor of southern at $1 30, Corn was firm, and large sales of yellow made at 98.0 96 cents. Provisions were a little firmer than at the close of yesterday ; but sales of pork and beef were limited It may be well for shippers of Indian Corn, and especial. ly those sending it forward from the interior, now navi- gation is about to be resumed, to understand the opinion of an experienced broker in this city. He says, for the want of previous attention, much of the eorn coming to this market arrives io a bad condition, liable to heat, and rendered even when otherwise good, less saleable. He ‘a, in all cases, before shipment, it should'be well fan- ned and screened, to free it from faulty substances, rot- seuvegetable particles, dirt, &c., which by being com. bined with it, renders it more liable to heat, and at eny | rate, lersens its @ in market. Fanning and screening it exposes the grain to the air, frees it from impurities. and causes itto keep better ona voyege than it would otherwise do.

We saw him in his own palace, in a sort of morning presentation, after church service. He is a little man, with bandy legs, and with a head of extraordinary dimensions; and is of such @ nervous temperament that the soldiers dare not fire off a cannon in his presence.
