As it is, they are coud mned to political inactivity—their princes peing mere waivers on Peovideuen, aud haviag no other ip'erests at heart than those which are dynastic and relate to the prosperity of their own famiies, A union with France, Bay, evén with Russia, would bo pre- ferable to such an existéace; for, in the initer ense, their governmental cespotism vould at least be original, and not received second band from 4 first rate power, “it Germany caunot have aud maintain a policy of ber own,” reason the Catholics and orthodox Protestants, “then let us join some great power which has «policy that may be moditied by our unfon, #0 that we may both enjcy its benefice. Let us in some way or other be parti- eipaiors in the great events that fshion the worl, and eo: eit down with our bande in our iaps till fate reaches us through the polities of other nattwons.”” At the bottom of all thi- is the Catholie party in Germany, who for the last thicty years has not ceased to taunt the |’rotestauts with the biter polif-al fruits of their secession, What ha- Germany gainec ey the thicty years’ vligious war? they ask, ‘The privilege ot not gving to mass or oval con- fess) And what bas sbe lost’ Her union and inde- pendence. The Protestant princes of Germany sought the assistance of foreign kings.

And i” the commereial intercourse between the United States and Auaéria bas hitherto been extremely insigviticant, this circumstance is far leas at- trivuratle to their relative geographical positions, than to the lamentable fact that, upto the present time, they have continued strangers to each otter. Amertcans, in general, kvow pothing of Austria, and Austrians know eeiltile of Ameriea, this truth must not be overlooked, Ure great 1cason, however, which may be adduced by way of expluiu'ng it is this:—Botb countries are will in a state of comparatively infantile developement in respeet of their immenre internal sources of national wealth ani pros- perity, But this very similarity in their relative luter- nal conditions, furnishes at once the clue to the cause which has till now operated against a more active com- merciol intercourse between them, and to the improved prorpeets in this respect, the realization of which may be reasonably looked forward to in proportion as tits uatu- ra) process of developement progresees, There are, how- ever, undeniably, certain difheusties to overcome before these be|ter prospects can be realized—and these are of a purely political nature, But their removal is assuredly desirable, aud will be best promoted by an open and fronk discussion of them. ‘They mainly consist. to, mu- tual prejucices; and, like most prejudices, they are founded on misconceptions and misunderstandings. Loubtiess these prejudices have been engendered by % existirg Cisumilarities between the outward forms of the Ameriean and Austrisn polfifec! jastitutions. Tsay between their ‘outward fornia,” because it must be con- fesscd that beth States are absolute in their principles of goverpmcnt, for republicanism is quite as absolute a }tueiple in America ax autoeracy is in Austria. The di- vergencier, however, between the outward forms of gov- ernment in there two countries have given tise to mu tual and almost unavoidable offences—unavoitabla, be- cause, on the one hand, the popular exhibition of the spiris of the demoeracy of the United States iaas lable to Cvershcot the mark of sympathies fur the revolutionary eliments of Eurepe which seek an asylum and protection under its banners, as the” rigit observance of the tradi- tions! conser vatirm of Aust:ia is naturally re entless, aad in rome cases even more or less vindictive against all per- sons and governments who manifest «ympathies for the oj eu euemies of the exiating political aud sozial order of things in Europe. Upon this field of democratls rywpathies and aristocratic antipathies America and Austria will surely never join issue, And hence, Cecurrences euch asthe famous Kosz'a aifaic become unavoicable, ae they are, at the rame thne, detrimental to sheir international relations, But experienced and enlightened statesmen will easily arcive at the conviction that there causes of irritation between the two countrios are ;wely accidental and of transitory effect, and that their more important interests are not and cannot be seriously effected thereby. Now, it fs an bisterfeal fact that a truly enlightene} foreign policy will invariably attach less importance to mere abstract political sympathies than to the more practical material interests of international relations. t wae thus that the ancient republic of Rome, whilst it once cariied on the most sanguinary wars with Mith- ridates for thirty years, hesitated not to form alliances with the mort ceepotie goternments of the Ptolemoys, and why? Simply becavse the material interests of the Koman Tepublic called for these alliances; nor can it be raid that there is anything inconsistent or dishonorable in this courte of policy. Why, then, ghould it not be imitated alto in our days? The great gepublic of Ame- rica bas, for the fame good reason, manifested sym- yathies for despotic Russia in the present war which dpgland and France are waging agaiost that Power. The destruction of the naval power of Russia cannot reason- ubly be regarded with a favorable eye at Washington; for whilst tbe bare chances of a collision between the in terests of the United States and thoce of Russia, ure, from thelr very geographical positions, almost without the pule of political combinations—ci:cumstances, on the other hand, might earily arise which would render the alliance of Russia of incaleutable advantuge to America, and thus the entire destruction of Bussia’s naval power, both in the Fast and in the Baltfs, might, in the possi te event of a war between the United states and England or France, prove to be of great disadvantage to America. he rome line of rational argument may be applies to the accleble relutigpambich a wigs policy ought to malntsin detweetfithe United States and Austr ir goographi cabperitions render the assumption c able col nm of interests almost entirely out of the question. Op ibe other hend, in matters concerning the Mternal cevelopraent of their respective sources of nati nal Weelth and prosperity, there is an affinity of interests berween them which may, and doubtless will, in duc course of time become highly inieresting to both nations. t follows, therefore, that the frtendly cultivation of their rtenaticnal relations should even now be fos'ered oy a wice and (ar-eecing policy that paves the way, in due sea. on, fer the realization of thore practical and material advantages which @ not distant future holds cut to our view.

The Anglo-American War. THE WAR FEELING ALL ON OUR SIDE—MR. CRAMP- ‘SON'S POPULARITY IN WASHINGTON. [From the London Shipping Gazetts, Nov. 8.) The advices ‘rom the United States confirm the eonfi- dence which we ventured to express in the common sense of the American yeople with respect to the diferences at pre-ent existing between the Cabinet of Washington and the British Government. The ill-teeling exhibited by one of the leading members of General Pierce's administration has done more to expose the political animus which ac- tuates Jin party than the invectives of all the opposition ut tegether. “Mr. Crampton, as the Briti-h Minister at Vasbingten, has acquired uniformly fiiencly predilec- tions towards the pecple amongst whom he is accredited to reeide, the good-will of all cl with whom he his been brought in contact; much the sameas Mr. Buchanan, the American Minister in this country, has secured the approbation of all who have had to trantact business with him, Even with those who were convinced, by the evidence of Stiobel, the informer, that the British Minister had taken part in the enlistment movement, the feeling with respect to Mr. Cran pton was one of regret, that a gentle- wan holding so important @ diplomatic trust, and other- wire perforining the requirements of his cttice suttsfacto- riy, should have been led, by false representations, to feiget bis Culy to the country in which he resided, through on excess of patriotism towards the country he repserented. To the majority even of these perscns the amence honorable was readily Accepted in the admission by the British government, ‘that euch sn enlistment aa the ove complained of was improyer; wnd, if it had hither- to been encouraged by the Britivi representatives, should in future be diseountenanced.”? Soch a termination of a dispute, fo seazonably acyent to an election, was not to be permitted by che more viclent of the partizans in the United State,, to whan a war-coy would be a species of rallying point, Mr, Crampton, if he really were guilty of tue acts alleged against him, had made himself amenable to the charge of lag | violated the municipal laws of the United States, whilst filling an office in wnich the exhibition of good faith might have been expected from him, What more reasonable, however, than to presume that the British plenipotentiary was acting under in- structions from home, fn which ease the British ministry would become implicated as well ax the British repre- sen‘a'ive. Hence, how easy the transition from the Driish ministry 'to the British people; and, siace the former would scarcely like to punish their nominee for obeying their instructions, how very simple a matter to build upon the heritation of the British ministry # re- ‘ort thet the people of Great Britain refused to award Jont reparation to the United States for an infringement of thelr Jaws—which could not be denied—and » gross viclation of that international good faith which every country has a right to expect. The people of the United States, however, viewed the progress of the dispute between the Cabinet of Washing- tén ond ‘he British government much inthe same light us have the poople of this country, being satisfied that if Mr, CRaurT0n had ao far committed bimself as to have entitled the United States government to demand bis re- call, be would be recalled. To insist on the disgrace of so fopular a minister might or might not be harsh and iM-natured under the circumstances in which Great Bu- tain is at present placed, and the pressures from without which she has to centend with ; but if the Cabinet of Wastington bad the will to do 60, they certainly had the right ; proviced, of course, it wore proved beyond doubt that dir. CraxrTon stood convicted—a fact which there now appears Teacon to doubt, The Wusbingtoa Herald states that Mr. CRaNPToN bas avowed his ability to Girprove the accusations. Should he have it in his power to” do this, the subject-matter in die- ate between the two countries will be reduced into m very smal! compass, Mr. CRAMPTON, it appeacs, alegrs that the charges which have been brought age'xnt bim aze the result of a foreign combinativo, some dime in cigerticn, in order io embreil the two govern- ments, and to create an ill-feeling between Great Britain axd the United States, to that Kussia may tke edvan- tege of any distrust that efther country my entertain, to furiber her own interests, or foster a diverrion which mpy contribute to disanange the aggressive operations ofthis country. What Russia has in common wih the freeStaies of America we are ata loss to conceive. Yet we do not repudiate the impression that » strong Vhilo- Russian feeling bas been propagated throughout many of the independent Sta'es of America. Nefther do we askert that the predilections in favor of Russia, entertained by seme parties in the United Btates, are altogether without precesent, inarmuch aa one of the strongest linpulses of a free and Wbernl constituency is frequently in favor of falling greatness and depreciated power. There is no an- tocracy so violent as that of a great and powerful repub- lie; and, during the revolutior of popular feeling, strange codliticns are sometimes formed, which in times of less exeitewent the contracting parties would bave rejected with indignation, and in future years are eertain to regret. WHAT AMERICAN POLITICIANS WANT A WAR FOR—~ TREATMENT OF OUK MINISTERS ABROAD. {From the London Examiner, Nov. 6. One of the objections we entertained to the Foreign Fnlistment Bil; was the danger of its embrotling us with other nations, either realty averse to the enlistment of their people under our flag, or disposed to seize a plau- sible pretext for quarrel. This appreliension has ocen upbappily realized both in the United States and Pras- via. Doubtless all care has been taken to avoid just ound of offence, but a state in need, like a man in peed, finds no friends when going begging or borrowing, and is extremely apt to fall under the suspicion of going steal- ing. to her Mujesty’s representative at Was! , Mr. Crampton, is denounced ag a crimp, and an attempt is ce to fasten the same respectable character on the Britikh Consul at Cologne. All this may be very un- fair and malicious, but it was to be looked for as a pro- able consequence of the foreign enlistment, and the question might have been considered whether we were not likely to make more enemies than recruits wy that expedient. A rupture with any one na- tion would be a heavy price to pay for a contingent of 6,000 men. It could not be helped, is the answer; it was a case of necessity, as we want inen, and cannot get taem in eufficient numbers at home, Well, but most cases of necessity are accompanied with troubles like those which vewthicken about us, for itis the woy of the world to become unfriencly in proportion to the want of help. We have betrayed an indigence in an essential of strength. Paradoxice) as it may sound, we are go rich that we want men, In the attempt to supply this want, government has questionless taken every precaution to keep within the bouncs of international law; but from the very nature ot the business it was too apt to wear the appearance, unreal it may be, of poaching on a friend’s manor, If we commission Black George to go upon a certain es- fate, and see whether he cannot provide us with par- tricges ond phearants, observing most punctilionly the Jaws relating to the same, we must not be aurprive? to find our intentions construed by the legal tendency of Black George’s errand, and not by its disqualifying ta‘ions. Jt is nothing to the purpose to say that brother a han is the last man why ought to be so particular, Yhathe should look at home and remember ita nelgh- berly acts of commission or omission when Canada waa trovbied (not 10 mention certain annexations which are whclesale foreign territorial onlistments), he is particu- lar because cppertunity serves, the very fame cause that hes made vs & little % making him screw up his in- fernational principles above concert pitch, But we wreng the United States by ascribing to them, in the Lopular impersonation, teelings and motives which be- vg only to a party which bas s game to plage at thir juncture. an excitement is “wanted forthe end of the President's career, and, as Bacon saya, there are people whose selflove is such that “ibey will set their neighbor's houre on fire to roast their own eggs in the emers.” To suppose that two notions, baving the mutual dependencies and connected interests af the United States and England, could go to war about so pitifal a cause as we have alluded to, would be to imagine an insanity ouch as bas never yet asiioted werkind, A war with America would be a war of devas- tation with ourselves, and America’s war with England wruld be the rameto her. We live and thrive by eac! other. Millions on each side of the Aviantic are depend- ent for existence, and all that sweetens existence, on ropplics or demands from the other, A war with the United Statee would combine the horror: and miseries both of fereiga and civil war, of nameaceursed, It would Le the mest gigentin crmme the world haw ever seen, and iravght with proportionate retribution to both © rel, Both we say, for we cannot believe ober Pe be alone anawerable for such impulie mighty hold of the other tor good, which must be ev imi- ns'ly let go before they can be loose for etrife, No petty point of honor should be permitted to stand in the way of op adjuster ont of differences.

The amity of nations is not wade by thelr governments, but by their people. But something governmen‘s can do for the same end, snd bas ours done ii? We do not raise the question to imply that it has pot, but simply aa 9 gute. tion, We know not, for own parts, whethor it be avawered in the negative or affirmative; but this wo do know, that American diplomatists and visitars very generally complain of their reception and treatment in this country, end some of the former have returned howe with feelings of re-eutment amounting to rancour, ‘They ray that they have not had their share of the notice and attentions of tbe Court, that they are sligited in comparison with other fore! of the same di, repk, that they are neg! by the aristocracy, few of ‘whom open their dvors to them; and in a word, that their pcsition in Loudon is the worst in the world, as in St. Petersburg it is tne best, for the wily Russians know whom it is worth while to conciliate snd to win, Far- ther, they complain that their distinguished coun- tuymen Naiing, this country are war and upbonored, and it is vain to assure them that English. men not less distinguished prophets in their own land ave cqually unrecognised and unhonored.

The American Messrs, B, only share the tame fate. All the creat and the petty mebility of Barope fare, on the other hand, perfectly well known, our court Ivikg in awood cf the genealogical trees, We have qnoted the American complaints a+ we bave heard them, énd know them to be spread abroad, because, if there ve: any grounds for them. it isu duty to remove so unworthy cause ofumbrege.

The War im Asa. (From the London Globe, Nov. 9.] On the morning of the 1é:h of Uctoder the Tarkish camp at Fouchum Kalel was the scene of a remarkeb'e incident in the war in Asia, Tne intellizence of the de- fent ofthe Fussians betore Kars had arrived, and Omar a, wih true soldierly instinet, immoiately ordered the troops uncer arm, und commuuicatet to them the spirited news of the success of their beleagured brethren, ‘Then, exhorti: g them to marca and comp! the vork, he rode at the head of 6,000 men, with two pat- tesies otartillery, instantly forth on the road to Kutels; followed two days after by 0,010 more, At the same time that this gratifying intelligence reaches us we hear that the Turkish Stidar had appointed the Naip of Cir- capsia Civil Governor ef all the proviaces of that country, step which secures the co-operation of tue moans taincers. thus two important enterprises are fairly on foot—a Civersion in Immeritia and blinugrelie, and a di- versien in the mountain country. We also receive from Kars detailed accounts of the brilliant action which makes the 20th September a red day in the modern annals of Tarkey. Tho letters trom Kars come down to the 13th October, showing that al- thoi gh the Muckade has been renewed, the commuuica- ons of the garrison with ‘rebizond had not beea entirely ent ‘he victory of the 2¢th September, was indeed » great feat of vrr-.. The town of hare stands on the right benk of an aftiluent of the Kour, It is commanded on three tides by rocky hiils, through which the river breaks ite way.

One height, the Katacegh, was extremely important, and s0 well fortified as to be deemed impregnable. These earthern fortifications were so piased as reciprocally to support aud command each other. The» whole of tbe garrison entrusted with their defence, ex. elusive of the inhabitants of Kars, was 9,000 men: 8s our readers are aware, by Geueral Williams Lake, Major Teesdale, Captain Thompson, the Hucgerian.

He knew what posl- fous to serail; he knew that bis ouly soauce lay ti wrprire, and be counted on Moslem carelesaneds, )ritkh and Hungarian vigilance. He therefore r= mined to attack beiure Cuytight, and further to mislead the garrieen, he cireeted convoys, or sham convoys, trem the Kunian comp, as if he were preparing to ra! the siege. But it was far ovherwive. At midaight the watchful Bmety beard suspicious sounds, and instantly Jad oll bis men under arms. After an interval of aileace, and while it wos yet dark, ihe nolse of approaching mass- es was Gistine:ly heard, and the. faint rays of the moon reverled the heuds of heavy columns directed sgainst hree points of the works. They came on im earnest ogainet the western end northern redoubrs; they made a feint on the south. The Karadegh was not even menaced. But, favored by the gloom, the enemy poured constaut and'steady cclumns of troop against the works known a6 the Tubmos forts and she English forss. In the dark the heavy artillésy of the place could not be dirested with precision, but day at length dawned, and tnabled the gar- rison to Ming all their resources into play, in their Hirst onset the penty facie apse, map gre beeterp seg line, and actnally got into position in its rear, and they twebt drreristibiyy over the Kuglish redoubte, sud shelled the town of Kars with theic field guns, But when the daylight showed that the attack on the south was a feint, the English cfticers, with great coolness and presence ot mind, direcied their reserves upon bed gen captured by the e-¢my, the people of Kara rushed forth anc took part in the combat, and the enemy was driven facm the work by the bayonet, and mowec dowa by ha dreds as he foiriy fee in disorder dowa the sl pes of hills, The ccmbat was ver at half-past eleven ia the forenocn, Kars was saved, upwarén of 6,000 dead Rus- sions were piled on cach other, chiefly io front of the works, and the ‘Turks, whose clothing as grown scant, eae the dead bodies and denned garments of the fallen. ‘This notable victory is another instance of the conse- quences of storming a fortified camp. That General Mouravief’s plan nearly succeeded does not imvalidate the geveial rule tbat fortifiec camps canno; be taken at a. rup. The plun of the Rusrian general was masterly, ite execution splerdid ; be was favored by darkness at the cutset; but the conditions of sueceas were sach as neither Le nor any general has a ight to count upom; and he fafleé because those conditiony did not exist. If the aum- ders of tbe enemy engaged in this assault be correctly estimated at 27.000, and 6060 dead Iay around the earth- worke of Kars, at Jeost as many mote must have been. wounded, and thus the eremy must have lost nearly one- Delf bis force. Tiis resolution anc tenacitp are shown by the fact that under these ciacumstances he did not raise the lege. He was indeed a foe worth conquering by British skill and Turkish valor.
