Betrothal of the Princess Royal of England to @ Prussian Prince. j (From the London Times, Potoher 3) * We make these remarks, not with a view of exciting any ill feeling between this country and Prussia, but be- cause they happen to have an immediate bearing on a very delicate and interesting subject. On the ver: day on which we announced the eapture of Sebastopol it also transpired that Prince Frederick William of Prussia had arrived at Balmoral for the Purpose of ‘ improving his acquaintance with the Princess Royal.” It is under- stood, so far a matter of this kind can be understood. that in the year 1861, when her Royal Highness had attained the mature age of ten years, a kind of preliminary under- standing was entered into that she was one day to be- come the bride of this young Prince, the heir presumptive to the Prussian Crown; and now that the Princess has attained the age of fifteen years it may be supposed that the negotiation is sbout to advance another stage. It is the misfortune of royalty, that these domestic transac: tions; which in private life are concealed under s0 much reserve, must inevitably be treated as matters of public concern, involving as they do not merely the happi- ness or ialaery of atwo young people, but questions of licy and alliance most important to the future destiny of empires and of kingdoms. Ia it, then, or is it not expetiient, that a daughter of England should take her place upon the throne of Prussia’ and, in forwarding such match, are the parties princi- ly concerned consulting the happiness of the young incess, or the safety, honor and welfare of our sovereign and her dominions? "We lay no stress on the fact of rapid and visible cocay of russian power and influence since 1851; nor, following the precedents of former times, should we regard it as any substantial objection if King Frederick William should succeed in placing what was once a great Power on a level with the petty ki ms of Saxony, Bavaria, or Wurtemberg. Jt has never been the policy ot England to seck the alliance of first-rate Staten; and whenever she has deviated from that policy, she has seen reason to repent it. In one sense, however, an alli- ance with Prussia may le considered as a step towards an alliance with Russia. The two royal families are inextri- cably entwined in the bonds of relationship, of sympathy, and of mutual interest; and it needs little argument to rove that the present is, at any rate, an il! chosen time Jor vringtng wa into contact with the Ooirt Of St. Petersburg, ‘or raising a suspicion of Ws influence over any portion of the royal family of England. “In humbling Russia we are not only reducing a barbarous and aggressive Power, but plucking up from the very depths of the ocean that mighty anchor upon which all the anti-popular dynasties of Europe hope to ride out the storm of public indignation and contempt. Why should we place a daughter of England in « situation in which devotion to her husband must be treason to her country’—why dis- tract ber mind between wishes for the welfare of the family which she has left and that into which she is to be received? Nor ix this all. Who is there that dacs not see that the days of these paltry German dynasties are num- dered, and that it is as impossible sor them to survive the downfail of Russvan influence as for the branches (o outlive the trunk that gives them sap and “nutriment? Upon what, indeed, do they rest, when deprived of these alien and exotic influences? From their subjects they have with- held the liberty they promised, and made ‘ita loss only the more keenly felt by adding foreign degradation to in- ternal servitude, They await but the first blast that shakes the forest to fall prostrate, bearing down with them in their ruin the lesser plants that have sought shelter under their shade, The banishment of the royal family seems an indispensable step in the course of free- dom. It has been so in England, in France, and in Spain; how long may it be until it is so in Prussta also’ Suppose this marriage to take place, who can tel! how soon we may see the Si iaaeen whose betrothal to a mem- ber of the house of Hobenzollern is now being hurried on with such ill-omened haste, return to thete shores str of the pomp and dignity with which she de- peg ote then, to'fnd, agan exile and a fugitive, in the heme of her ancestors, that asyluin which already receives within its arms «o many of the great ones of the earth? -Or, far worse, why may it nat be the fate of this Prussian prince, as of so many others of royal and noble lineage, to enter the Russian service, and to pass those yenrs which flattering anticipation now destines to a crown, in ignominious attendance as a | gc officer on the levee of his imperial master, having lost even the privilege of hix birth, which is conceded to no German In Russia’ link the fortunes of a daughter of E land with all this uncertainty—all this danger? W1 embark anew on the t d sea of internal German poli- tics, from which the devolution of Hanower to the male Uranch has so happily relieved ya? Surely the same con- siderations which would render it most impru- dent for a private citizen of assured position and ea+y fortune to unite his daughter to 2 man en- gaged in hazardous speculations ought to apply with tenfold force to a union with the bankrupt dynasties that yet for a little while encumber the cen- tral thrones of Central Europe. What ix his Prussian Majesty to us, or we to him’ We nevsr seem to agree to do the seme thing at the same time, When in he armed against Austria we were anxious for peace: now, we are involved in war, he in protocols, What aympathy ean exist between a court supported like ours on the solid basis of popular freedom and national respect, and a ca- marilla yust engaged in the interests of a foreign patron in trampling oul the last embers of popular government which a revolution, resisted with perfidy, yielded (o with cowar and quelied with insclence, had left chine il? For ont part, ‘de wisk for the daughters of our royal house some bet ter fate than union with a dynasty which knows neither what is due to ite own dignity, to the rights of the pec ple over which it presides, nor the place it oceuples in thegreat European confederaay; and we regard it asa poor sequel to the efforts which have broken the strength of Russia that we should ally ourselves with princes who are only too happy to be ranked among her pensioners and supporters, The people of England, atall events, has no wish to improve its acquaintance with any prince of the house oy hobenzollern. The Effect of the Fall of Sebastopol on Tar- ey and Greece. (From the Lemdon Times, Sept. 28.) ‘The full of Sebastopol and the admission of the Turkish State into the European system, under the counsels. if not the tutelage, of the Western Vowers, will probably ut a stop during many years to all designs of the Coa. 1¢ aggressive instinct of Russia may turn to the borders of the Chinese empire, to the Caspian provinces of Persia, or even, by renewed activity among the Slavonic nation: threaten Austria herself, whom the Cvar may con- there will be none to help. hed alliance of France and now a question settled by Europe be broken by impro- bable |, unless naval power and unbounded re- sources shall cease to avail, unless the memory of past sacrifices and exertions shall pase from the minda of the Western nations, the Crar can hardly hope, in the present generation, the relative strength of his empire — same, to undertake with success an invasion of the Prin. cipalities or an attack on Constantinople. The Christian rajece the Porte must therefore supremacy of the Western Powers, have w mony sacrifices and incurred the of a great war from determination to defend the territory now tuled by the Sultan from partition or gradual absorption into the dominions of bis northern neighbor. They must submit themselves to Western guidance and Western in- fiuerces. and learn to trust the assurances they have received that, whatever may have been the Of past policy, the alien have now clearly in view rights, the well-being, a " utare progress of the Christan rates. ‘Such advice need hardiy be addressed to the votaries of those Chrirtian sects which are less extended or whose geographical ition renders them les dangerous adherents of the Pewer we oppose. The Catholies are, of course, staunch partioans of France and their unscrupulous zeal requires rather to be checked than encouraged. Armenians and Nestorians have political sympathies for the only Chris tian State which they have heard of as a protector, bat these divergent sehismatics have much less aversion to each other's creeds than to the orthodoxy whieh lies be- tween them, Of these nects the Armeniafs alone a merous, and they show much lesa sympathy with tean might be expeeted from the influence exerted by the Crar in the appointment of their Primate and higher clergy. It is to the disciples of the church in commu nion with the Russian, and to the Greeks in partic: lar that we recommend acquiescence in what neves- sity imposes and reason commands, It must be Y that the Czar is now debarred, probably for ever, from that exclusive interference which has bronght the land they live in almost to ruin, while it han done so little for themselves, The similarity of their religions doctrines to those of the Russians ought uot tv blind them to what others ean see ao wellathat if thelr country were brought withig the chain of Rusvian for tresses their chances of restored nationality would be crushed under # dominion more fatal than the Ottoman, because each point of resemblance to the ruling race would render more easy the eas Of amalgamation and absorption.

They, however have their part in the future’of the Turkish empire, and that part is no mean one, That they will see the manifest advantage of siding with reason and civilization is not to be doubted, and we believe that in a few years their Russian sympathies, though ostenta- tiously proclaimed, will have as little practical reality as the Jacobitism of Scotchmen fifty years after Culloden. Any feeling against them or any other Christians ought not to exist in the hearts of the Western nations, for the ill will that is powerless againat us may well be forgotten. The allies wish only that men of all races may with sense and foresight take a‘vantage of the destiny that is before hem, ‘ Mutiny on Board the American Ship Wander- ing Jew. (From the-London Gazette, Sept. 29.) A letter will be found in another column, relereing to the case of the American ship Wandering Jew, and prov- ing the great inconvenience to which shipmasterd and others may be subjected by the absence of their consuls from the ports at which they touch. The Wandering Jew, it may be remembered, was towed into Cork harbor, with her crew ina state of mutiny, and the chief mate badly wounded by one of the semen. Upon the crew being taken before the trates, they were all dis- feel i except two, @pon the plea that the offence of whic they were accused wan ogres on the high neas im an American ship, by foreiga sailors, and, therefore, that the Queenstown trates nad no jurisdiction. Upon reading the report of the case, ax forwarded to us, we exp ano m that the Queenstown m ‘trates, instead ofdischarging the men, should have handed them over to the Amcrican Consul at Cork, or, at least, have consulted that gentleman on the subject. From the letter to which we are now referring, it seems the by eee of the Wandering on had ondeavored to find some rican consul to assist and advise him; but Mr. Keevan, the American Consul at Cork, being absent, the Captain was at @ nonplus. He then made nn applica- tion to the United States Consul in Dublin, but that gen- tleman, upon consideration, refused to interfere, on the ound that the Cork Consul had appolated a deputy in rk. It appears, however, that the analy 30 appointed is not a cit! of the United States, which, ‘ander the new American Consular act, it is contended he ought to be. The words of this act, as quoted in our correspon- dent’s letter, are certainly very plain and positive on the int: but then Mr. Buchanan, the American Minister, aving been consulted in the dilemma, has pronounced an opinion that such words are not intended to be binding, but are merely recommendatory. The question as to what the Captain is to do, and to ‘whom he ought legally to apply, is likely, therefore, to become an interesting one for “lawyers; but this, “unfortunately, will be but @ poor consolation to the captain himself. We are of opinion that the Consul’s deputy, if not a citizen of the United States, is improperly appointed, and that the words of the American Consular act are not recom- mendatory, but positive. The case is a strong illustr tion of the inconvenience to which masters of ships a subjected by the absence of their Consuls, more eapeci ly if the appointment of deputies to act whilst the Co suls are away should in any way be questionable or in- formal. As far as the public, also, are affected, the turning adrift of the crew of the American ship Wandering Jew is a matter of serious moment. These men certainly were in a state of mutiny, and were accused of attempt- ing to murder their officers, They ought not, therofore out some American Con- sul having been consulted, and if this gentleman re- pudiated having any control oyer them, then, us they were a crew compoxed of mon of different countries, each man sbould have been delivered to the Consu representing his own country, and dealt with as ht should advise. e TO THE EDITOR OF THE SHIPPING AND MERCANTILE GAZETTE. Sin—Observing your valuable remarks in the case of mutiny on board the American ship Wandering Jew, put into this port, 1 am of opinion the case requires explans- tion. ‘The sbip has now been here eight days, and no decisive step taken. Mr. Keenan, the | nited States Con- sul, is absent; and according to the last Congressional act relative to consuls, in operation since 0th of June last, as published in the Shipping and Mercantile Gazette of 20th of July, ninth section, states—“‘And be it far- ther enacted, that the President shall appoint no other than citizens of the United States, who are residents thereof, or who shall be abroad in the employment of the government at the time of their appointment as envoys extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary, com- missioners, &c.; nor shall other than citizens of the United Staten be employed either as vice-consuls, or con- sular agents, or as clerks in the offices of either, and have access to the archives therein deposited.” ‘This, 1 say, 1s omsul, Vege Dublin) who was applied to, says if the capiain asked him officially he would act, The captain did #0, and he refused, stating a party at Queenstown was representing Mr. Keenan, Now, such conld not be acknowledged without being a citi- zen, according to the of Congress, and of this the Dublin Consul must be aware; besides, no person in trade is acknowledged in the consular capacity by our Adii- ralty Court, ‘These, sir,fare vital objections, and Mr. Appleton, the Secretary of Legation, London, 1 am in- formed, has written to say that Mr. Bachanan says the seetion of the act referred to was_ouly recommendstory How can this be, when the Hon. W. L.. Marcy, Secretary of State of the United States, writes that the Consular Agents at Limerick and Waterford would not be acknow- ledged, as they were not citizens of the States? 1 trust, sir, for the guidance of all parties, this unsatis- fyctory state of things will be settled. T will add, that this vesvel had gg all the crew foreigner’ to the United States, vis.: Greeks, Swedes, Manoverians and French, not knowing the English language, and ignorant of any eommand given on board. The captain knew this, although from a port (Liverpool) where Americans gould be got if the wages were paid, or seamen who understood the English language. Therefore, under}these circum stances, the captain may in some measure be blameable, and probably will have to answer to hieown government for shipping such a crew, wheu it is well known he could have got mep of bis own ration, PATRICK BARRY, Solici‘or, ‘ [From the London Court Journal | For receptions at home nothing can be more suitable than a white dress, either of lace or muslin. A very ES. robe may be made of muslin, with two skirts in rge scallops, and a ribbon in the hem. On each side is a wide aypliraticn de Bruzelles, between each seallop a row of embroidered medaliions, surrounded by ‘nci- enves lace; and between these rows of embroidery are others of bows of ribbons, with longends, A cachspeune of flowers completes this pretty toilette. With ball dresses, the sleeves are worn very short, and are yome- times compored of two frills only. Flounces are still very much worn to almost all dresses, and in full dreas are richly trimmed with broad lace. ‘Taffetas is still in favor for dresses; but those of this serson have fewer flounces than fortierly. They are frejnently made with veveral skirts, ornamented by narrow velvet in patterns, or with the fringes now so fashionable.

Sometimes, when the flounces ave of the same mater‘al us the dress, two only are worn: the upper one very broad, and fasiened in at the watst: the lower one a third narrower. Jackets, t@ormed with lice or fringe, are very much in vogue. Cloth ones are al- ready made, and appear likely to be very during the approaching winter. Among utifal ball dresses lately seen, those of gauze, worked with gold or silver, were very clegant. Skirts, Lowillonres up to the knee, will small flowers or buttertli bon apparently thrown upon then effect. Mantles and talmas in velvet, cloth, ov silk plush, are aheedy in demand. This latter material, either curled lain, and of an fron-gray color, trimmed wit! of black velvet, fas a very goodeffect.
