Such a crewd of German princes—of whom I will only mention the Grand Dukes of Saxe-Weimar, Oldenburg Mecklenburg-Strelitz, and Mecklenburg-Schwerin, the Prince Royal of Wirtemberg, Prince-Frederick of Hesse- Cassel, the Duke of Nassan, Prince William of Baden, &c.—being met here to welcome the Czar, it is not to be wondered at that the public should bo induced to give a political significance to what in all jd agen {s merely an act of courtesy, easily exp! the ties of relationship existing between the parties. Princes of Wirtemberg and Hesse, for instance, are the Fmperor’s brothers-in-law, the Grand Duke of Wel- mar his first cousin, the Grand Duke of Oldenburg a cadet of his family, and so forth. Nevertheless, rumors are quite rife that this harmless meeting of friends and rela: tions is, in reality, nothing else than a congress in disguise, assembled to conclude a treaty, under the auspices of Russia, as a counterpoise to the triple alliance of April 15. ‘The circumstance of, the Emperor's being attended by his Minister for Foreign Affairs, Prince Alexander Gortseha- kof, of Vienna memory, would seem to favor such eon- jectires, which, however, are contradicted by the un- doubted’ fact that, in spite of the tripartite treaty, there is an excellent understanding between Paris and St. Peters- burg; the apprekensions with which this entente cordial inepire the British, and espoeially the Anstrian cabinet, ‘being the real key to the document in question. ‘That the friendly feeling between the autocrats of the West and the North, tie origin of which may be traced to the injgsion of pee Pan has not i impaired, is evident _— anni ‘apoleon’s appointing a person sop connected with him as Merny to be his real sentative at the court of the Czar: while the latter, con- trary to the usual Russian tice of not acerediting any diplomatist of a Bigher rank than that of Minister Plenipo- tentiury, has selected no less a person than his . of War, Prince Dolgoruky, for his ambassador at the Tui- Keries. ‘This nobteman,who, like Gortschakoff, is a mem- ber of one of thowe old Muscovite families who derive their descent in a straight line from Ruric, and secretly Jook down on the reigning dynasty as po rvenus, acoom- panied his master to Berlin; and among |e other distin- guished steangers arrived here froin St, Peersburg I may notice old Count Neselrode; Prince Vorontzoff, the ex- Govornor General of the Caucasus, and Gen. Sir William Fenwick Williams, the brave defender of Kars, who ex- cited more interest than any of them. The gallant general, of whom his countrymen, the Bluenoses, may well be proud, and who, notwithstanding the civilities showered upon’him by the Muscovites, seems to be hear- tily rejoiced at his release from captivity, has lingered in Berlin for uear a fortnight to see the siglits, and to be pre- gent at the grand reviews, which must afford a very gra- tifying spectacte to aimilitiry inan, though in the long run excessively tedious to civilians, ‘The famous bandit “ol Asturiano,” of whom I spoke in and France ult Show~Undiminished Cordialily of the English one of my previous letters, is known to be im the vicinity | ‘Gud Brench -Ailiance~The Emperor lecander’s Proposed, of Matanzas, levying ‘black mail’? on all the rich planters.

He was beginning to despair of keeping the Union together for. four years longer. It could not have been saved by those who had done the mischief. It could not be saved by a sectional President—by a Presi- dent sectionally elected. Fortunately we shall have a President nationally elect- ed—elected by votes from all qnarters of the Union—a new man, who has had nothing to do with producing the present state of things—who has been called to supersede the authors of our calamities, and, of course, to restore the harmony which they have destroyed. Mr, Bonton wished bim ryccess in it, and would aid in the good work; but it was nota work of ease. Great would be the merit and difficult the «ask to restore the Union to its former fraternal feeling. Our Havana Correspondence. Havana, June 15, 1856.

Some of the Havana Papers have undertaken to refute the articles in question, Dut are very careful not to quote the attack in full. The other division ofthe Spanish squadron is still here waiting orders to gail, and if things should turn out adverse to our diplomacy, the “groasers’? will certainly be taught a good lesson. Gen. Comonfort ought to know that among our volunteerswe have a great many ‘‘Zouaves’’—so they style themsetves—and a grand descent in the fashion of Cortez may mot be an impossible thing in these days of modern’ adventure and chivalry. Spain is still a great country and’Spaniards a powerful poople. nor accepted it until after a long consideration, nor until he had rear» believe that he might be able to do some food. Peace was his object—peace both at home and @broad—and he considered the nomination of Mr, Bu- chanan favorable to that object, and, therefore, that the exertions of others laboring for it would not be in vain. He looked upon the place of candidate for Governor a3 being different from that of camitate for any other office. If elected, it was to be the head of the State, not of a party; and the reserve and decorum which the ollice would impose should commence in the canvass, anda foundation be laid in the decency of the canyass for an impartial administration, Acting on that belief he shou ki have nothing to say against the many partics into which ‘the Btate was divided.

In England, of about 114,000,000 of travel- Jers, 10 were killed and 811 injured by unavoidable, and 18 killed and 20 wounded by avoidable accidents; so that besides the numerous deaths, which are quite without parallel in Prussia, the preportion of injuries was as 1 to 350,000. In ether words, while the number of pas- sengers On the knglish railways was only nine times as large as that of travellers on Prussian lines, there were 120 sufferers in England to one in Prussia.” With regard to accidents happening to railway officials and laborers, on the contrary, the comparison with England is not to the advantage of Prussia. ‘The length of all the English railroads open to the public amounted, at the close ot 1855, © 8,766 miles, that of the Prussian to 2,620, or about 34; to 1, and the number of persons employed on them was 83{ to 1. The total number of employés and workmen injured in this country in 1855, however, Was equal to more than half the number of those mecting with the same fate in England—117 to 217; so that in Faghind one official or keborer of every 434 was injured, while in Prassia the same happened to one out of every 335. But very possibly this difference is more apparent than real, as it is hinted in the English official returns that a considerable Dumber of accidents bave occurred that wore not brought, under the notice of the reporter, and therefore do not appear in the lists. In eight cases cut of nine the injuries suflered by the Prussian officials were attributable to carelessness aad neglect of therogulations of the service, while only in one case out of mine they were the result of Unfor@ecn accidents ocourring to Mic running train. A comparison of the year 1604 with the las ows that although the trafic has increased on the P jan rail- roads, the number of accideuts happening to the employés bas condiderably diminished. There were only U7 cases in 1856, against 132 in 1864; and it may be expected, therefore, that as the service improves in expertnoss and vigilance there will be a \ progressty decrease in the castaltics, The number strangers, or of individuals places.

Of thig Jarge sum the society was allotted only a small fraction, which, however, it has since increwsed by recent pur= chases, Now we come to indnstrial undertakings. The society became associated with te Western Lea formed by the amalgatnation ef a number of lines, has been the purchaser of bonds representing together 18,000,000 francs. It likewise effected the sale of bonds amounting to 28,000,000 francs for the Company of the Southern Railways.

It has made similar olders of the Eastern Company and In fact, the society hag transactions of the lines now exist- ing in Fra Beyond the French frontier it has under- taken the issue of the loan contractad by the ‘Austrian Association for the Railways of the State,’? representing a@ value of 82,600,000 francs. ** Such, gentlemen,”? says, theggoard, “are the chief financial operations ettected by tssociation during the year 1855, We now proceed to you of mercantile undertakings in the organiza- e co-operated,” Then come details concerning Austrian railways, the St. Rambert and, Gre- noble Company, the Ardennes Company. Then ‘‘we have demanded the concession of a line from Paris and Soissons and Rheims, and the prolongation of that line to Belgtum.?? Next come the Pyrenean raitways, the formation of roads in the southwest, the draiuing aad planting of the Landes. Then are mentioued the Swiss Central and Western. Next the society turns to Spain, where it has been concerned in “a considerable operation—the canalization of the Ebro from Saragossa to the saa.’? Next we have two domestic enterprises, the Puris Omnibus Company’ and the General Maritime Company. The. latter has already more than sixty steamers and sail- ing ‘ships, Transatlantic lines are to be for ‘destined to furnish a regnlar communication betwe our principal ports and the most commercial centres North and South America.” ‘The society has also carried, out an amalgamation of all the gas companies of Paris, which will by a cheap supply cause the consumption the French capital to equal that of London. An amalga- mation of all the principal salt works in France is also contemplated, but the matter is at present only in a “pro yisional form.” Such are the operations completed or i Progress, but the “ Board of Administration” gives an in- dication of its future plans.

The society then promises “to national industry “a co-operation direct or indireet for all great underta- kings.” Such are the achievemonts, past or promised, of a French company with an original capital of £2,000,000 sterling. Now, that the principle of association may be largely extended we make no doubt, The case and rapi- dity with which, under the Freach law, sinall capitals may be united and applied to great unde ngs sure p $ anything of which we baye a conception in this country. But it may be well to consider whether any Dody of men, such as compoxe the “Board of Adininistra- tion,” can carry on with suocess undertakings in France and England, Germany and Spain, manage railways, ca- nals, omnibuses, gas companivs, salt works, steampacket lines, aid in the developement of the East, the settlement, of Algeria, the colonisation of the Pacific, and the inter- nication of the two worlds, at the same time subscribing for war loans and sapplying the people of the capital with cheap bread. The board tells its shareholders, ‘Congratulate yourselves, gentlemen, and be proud of a co-operation which has produced such results.” But this country, which has had for many years experience both of co-operation and competition, will, we think, retain %s opinion that both have their merits, and that enterprives are safest which confine themselves to a single object, even though such a limita- tion be an expression of that “spirit of insulation” against Which the Credit Mobilier pretests, ‘The Emperor of Rassia at Berlin.

Doubtless the shot was something imperially maryellous, for it is described as having brought down the animal at once, aud without any further aid of as- sistant ries.
