But it must be recollected that the Russians ex pected Austria to act not as a mediator, but as an ally; and itis certain that the late Emperor Nicholas would never ave pushed matters so far as he did if be had not relied upon the co-operation of his quondasm proiege, whose throne he had saved whon about to be overturned by the victori- ous Hungarians. To the “ infamous ingratitude” of Fran- cis Joseph she Court and people of this country ascribe all the disasters euffered during the late war, and they will go any lengths to gratify their revenge. There is no cne- my 80 inveterate as a former friend; but the fact is that the alliance with Ausiria was never popular in Russia, and the intervention in Hungary was decided upon by Nicholas against the opinion of his most confidential advisers. In a council of war convoke! ‘by the Emperor preyoous to that event, old General Yer- moloff expreseed himself in the strongest terms against it, expatiated on the behavior of Austria during the cam- paign of 1799, when the victories of Suwarrow were rep- dered nugatory by the jealousy of the Cabinet of Vienna, or ber ambiguous conduct during the Turkish war of 1825 end the Polish revolution, and declared that the breaking up of the Austrian monarchy was the most fortunate thing that could pappee for Russia, The dictates ce ple, he said, should prompt Russia rather to accelerate wv arrest such a catastrophe; and he — the example of Jobn Sobiesky and Poland to show what was to be expected from Austria in return for favors conferred upon her. A! remonstrances, however, were of no avai) to shake the determination of the late Czar, whose horror of revolution amounted almost to a disase, and who had received auto- graph letters from the Finperor of Austria, written in a style of such urgent entreaty and supplication thas he con- sidered ita point of honor to assist a brother monarch in distress. He lived long enough to tind out his mistake, and he bas bequeathed a legacy of undying hatred to hi Successors, The position of Count Esterhazy during his re- sidence bere was pitiable in the extreme. While the representatives of the Powers lately at war with Russia were treated with courtesy and respect—while Count Morny was, and lionized, and even Lord Wodehonse had no want of attention to complain of—be was shunned by eve: ry one, his saloons were deserted, or only frequented by his own countrymen; and if he appearad in society it was but to meet with some slight too marked mot to be felt, yet too furtive to be resented. He must be heartily glad to escape from the guerre @ éssingles carried on inst him; and unless he be possessed of superbuman forbearance and forgetfulness of injuries, the report he will mace to his employers is not likely to be of such a nature as to re- store the good understanding between the two imperial courts, It is now pretty certain that the Emperor will not leave Russia this cummer. nothing now being heard of bis pro Pared excursion to Berlin, Nice, apd eventually to Paris, which had been talked of so cenfidently all along. If such 4 plan was ever in contemplation, it has now been aban doned. The a ng acomichement of the Empress, which is looked to by the middie of this mouth, i¢ assigned as the chief reason of his staying at home; but perhaps be bas received a hint that so prolonged an ab. fence was not advisable under the present cir- cumstances, and that he had better direct his energies wo the internal affairs of his empire, which are suflciently various aud important to engroes all his attention. Of the pumcrous members of the imperial family a Jarge proportion, including the Eimpress mother, the Grand Duchers of Leachtenberg, the Grand Dukes Constantive, Michael, &c., has been travelling about Farope ever since last automp, spending an enormous deal of money, which is much wanted at home, and attaining no other object but that of makitg a certain pumber of individuals happy by the shower of orders and snulfboxes which is sure to fall around them. This travelling mania is a sort of heir joom derived from the late Emperor Nicholas, who was Always posting about from one place tw another. No one ‘Ventured to criticise it in Lim. He was looked upon as a pecies of demi-god, and every thing he said or did was “‘dis- creetest, wisest, best,” but the present Czar is far from inspiring the same awe as bis father. People are begin- bing to peak weir winds with wonderful boldnew, and you cccasionally hear discussions in our salons which ‘Would appear mero congenial to the atmosphere of anti- Napoleonic Paris than to the circumspect vicinity of the Winter Palace. It remains to be seen how long the Ein. peror will tolerate this freedom of speech, and whether he Will not grow alarmed at the sudden awakening of his subjects from their spellbound trance of unreasoning sub- tniesion. He is a well meaning man, humane and gene- Tous to excess; in short, quite a Trajan and Marcus Aure- jius; Dut there are instances of such characters being iransformed in the course of their reign into Neros and Domitians, Without the commanding talents and in- domitable resolution of bis father, he is more apt to be guiced by others, and more dependcut upon favorites uch as the Adierbei Baronotiz. Count Adierberg, Aide-de Camp Ger wister de la cour impfriale, &e., &e., belongs to a family whove atiachment to the reigning dynasty is hereditary; bis mother was governess w the daughters of Emperor Paul, his sister to the danghters of Nicholas; he himself was brought up with the late Empe ror, whose bosom friend be continued to the last merment of that monarch’s existence, and who raised him to the highest honors and diguities, though without entrusting bim with apy important military command or responsible civil office. “Nicholas was a great judge of character; and though he loved the man, aud knew him to be blim Voted to his will, he probably discovered that his capacity was not equal to his geal, aud therefore contented himfelf with heaping farors and emoluments upon him, while be confided the management ¢f civil and military aduira to the Nesseirodes and Orioifs, the Paskewitches and Woronzotty, The influence of Adierberg with the pre- gent Emperor is much greater than it was with his futher, He has been placed at the head of his Majesty's private Cabinet and of the ministry of apanage, or of the itmpe- fial estates; one of bis sons i adece-camp general, tie Cher miliary commissioner at Berlin, and his ¢ nephews, the Counts bar are ail of them generals in the army—two of then to the imperial suite, a tac the third chef d’é/at major of the guards. Two moro ef the Exnperor's favorites are bis aides de camp, Colonel Moer: der and Capiain Kevilin—the song of bis former tatore. Altogether there have been great changes in the higher officers of State since the death of Nicholas. The Presi dency of the Counc!) has been transterred from old Prince Tebernyshetf to Count, now Prince, Orloff, who bas beea succeeded by Prince Dolgornky, as Chief ‘of the Geudar mere and Police. Count Neseelrode has had to resign the portefewlle of foreign afa.re, be bas held for no lew than forty.tour years, w Pr. Alexander Gortachakofl. The yice-royaity of Voland, so jong enjoyed by the late Marshal Paskew itch, bas been conferred oo Prince Michael Gortechakof! (of Sebastopol), and Prince Pariatinsky has replaced General Movravieft in the Governor Generalship of the Caucasus, besides other appointmenws, much too Bumerous to mention. In this respect, wo, Avexander the Second seems to be lees conservative than’ his predeces. cor. who scarcely ever removed bis generals and min« ters from their porte tll they had reached the lact stage of senility, and sometimes not even then. i am sorry w say wat the cholera, which has never entirely jeft us, i again on the increase, and it is to be feared that its visitations are destin- ed to be permanent. Among it last victims are two ladies, whove joss will be severely felt in the aristocratic cireles of this capital—Madame Vitovtotl, the wife of the commander of the Guards, and Madame Savinsky, daugh- ter of Prince Kourakim, and peice of the Prince Kowrakin who was Russian Ambassador in Paris during the reign of Napoleon J. Our climate was bad enough aiready, wrth out the addition of thus scourge to the list of diseases inci Gent to it. In 1868 the excess of deaths over births was more than 10,000—only 16,002 children being born to make up (for 26,727 persons deceased. This disproportion is y for by the fact that two-thirds of the in- ‘tants of St. Petersburg are males, many of whom have families in other parte of the empire, and furnish their qnota to the deaths, wiule ibe births are registered eise- where; but even allowing for this, it cannot be denied that St Petersburg is one of the mort unhealthy cities in the world, and would be goon depopulated if it were not for the constant immigration from te ikierior of Russia and from abroad.

MANCHESTER. The new members for this city are Sir John Potter and 1. A. Turner, Eaq., who have thrown out, by cmsiderable majorities, Messrs. Gideon and Bright, the late members. Jtis probably known to the most of us that Manchester stands at the head of the great manufacturing and cotton spinning interests of Great Britain; it possess a large sad intevigent lation, and is, for its size, the wealthi est city in the United Kingdom, and probably i the world. It will not be denied that Messrs, Gibson and Bright were of some use in their day; but that day has paged. They bad the good fortune to possess one idea—that on the corm jaws—which, as these laws obsructed their own particular interest, was not extraor. dinary; and they assisted in carrying out their idea to @ successful issue, in their abolidon. Mr. Keely the acior, used to make us laugh when he announced or ‘the stage that * he never could get hold of an iiea,’’ an occurrence patent with many of us who have not the cau dor to admit it It would appear, however, that a secon! idea of a rational nature was beyond thelr reach. The writer bas for years personally known these men—Gibson , Bright, Cobden, Walmsley, £2. ; all their ideas and feeling: run in one channel—trade, business, cotton spinning, low wages, long hours of labor, high praiits and “peace” (a war interrupts trade) “at any price.” These things, well enough in their phice, were with them “all in all,” or “the one thing needful.’’ They are hard, grasping men, upacquainted with @ magnanimous or generous feeling, and to whom the common appellation of “money grub bern” is not much misay . When the severe but ho norabie struggle took place, some years ago, to wrett io fants, and children only beyond the age of infancy, from the cotton mills, where their 18 became deformed by long standing, and their health rained by fetid air, exceasive labor, and to limit the hours of workin, men as above were the mortal ener that noble, and eventually successful struggle. It was ou this occasion that their own operstives gave them so bitter a reproof when they told them, Do not suppose that we will join to pull down the arktocracy aud gentry to put such as you in their place.

Sir John is much respected and es as a hespitable and kind bearted man. The writer bas been acquainted with him for a number of years. His colleague, Mr. James .. Turner, spoke still more forcibly in allusion to the conduct of the late members and their faction; he said “What I feo) a strong interet upon is, the domination which has been co long exereived by a few persons, who assume all the pow ers, without the moral force of the anti-corn law Jeague, and that for political purposes.” Mr. Tusaute a sincere reformer, at the rame time it ia his desire to sce bis country maintain a frm and dignified auitade before worid.

The sea rover and the buccaneer then constituted thy chivalry of this beautiful region and of the long scaboard of the North American continent. The traditions of their bloody adventures have come down to us mellowed and chastened by the softening influences of time, yet even when seon in the tar West of memory enough of horror ings to the recitals to show us that the filibuster’s calling, even in those days, was a rough season’s. roughest work Whatever might have been the case then, thus much at least is clear—that modern civilization refuses to recognise the heroic element in these exceptional vocations. The pirate now a bay. is run up to the yardarm or reserved for gallows at the nearest port, without scruple and with little pre. tence of sympathy. Fair ladies, even in their perennial lachrymatories, have nota’single tear for the modern Turpins and Duvals, who are tried regularly at the Assizes or at the Central Crimiual Court, and ats rego larly executed, unless the Home Secretary coramutes (heir punishinent jnto incarceration, and banishment, auel hard jabor for life. There is, indeed, an occasional and partial outbreak of morbid’ sympathy for some particular criminal, but still the opinion of the majority takes its course, and crime for the Most part receives its due re turn. "There has been of late years but one exception to this rule, and that has existed in the United States of Ame We will not be so unjust as to say that even in the Great Northern Confederation public opinion has been in favor of filibusteriem; @ concurrence of circum stances combined to produce the result. It was known that territorial extension in various directions was desired by ail classes; there was an infinite variety of local gover Tents; the central cutive "was feeble, and not roused to action; there was dispersed throughout the sta a floating population of dexperadoes, the off-scourings ot Europ», wen without national fecling, and scarcely witn Duman’ bearts; Bally, the tribes or nati ms against whi attack was directed were of so savage and debased a cha racter, with the exception of Cuba, that it coald not be eupposed the distant Piations of the Western world wou'd take much interest in their fate. The time, however, } arrived when, even in the States, this disgraceful prac- tee seems to bave fallen into such disrepute that the public force of the country will be effectually exer cised for its repression. “We would not attach too ouch importance to the declaration of a newly elected President, who on the occasion of his inauguration neces- sarily epeake, like the Pope from the gallery of St. Peter's on kaster Sunday, to the world at large. Mr. Buchanav’s expression of @ just and pacitic policy cannot, however, be wholly disregarded; for if a vuler sets his face again-t unjust wars in general he can scarcely countenance fiibusteriem, which is to organized warfare whut numer and burghury are to thove great contests of nations dy food and tield which make ambition virtue.

Meanwhile the various Cea tral American governments bad entered inte such arrang» men with regard to Ni as would have the effect of annibilating the political existence of that State, an!, union being so far restored, the net was drawn closer and closer every day round the litte remnant of Walker's force, which, in ail probability, at the Ume we write bas ceased to have any organized military existence. This, then, # the end of this ill-starred expedition, which pro. bably within a limited area, and among @ sparse popula. tion, produced as great an amount of human murery as any similar foray upon record, The inhabitants have perished in great numbers by fire, by famine, by pestilemce, by the sword. The siege of Granada alone would be sufficient to = ‘an unbappy immortality to Walker's enterprise had been the only event in the foray, so horrible were the suierings endured on cither eile during its contin shore of the presumed El Dorado they were at once seized 2 Walker's agents, and lied wo bear arms, despite all their remonstrances. Noone who has reat merely the account of miseries which soldiers regularly onlisted im the service of any civilized Power have endured can form an idea of the tortures inflicted upon these miserable creatures, Walker was not only compelied to — Datties ip an unhealthy climate with a most insufficient t force co of civilians who had beon just eotrap ped by his crimpe—but he was under the necessity of taking greater precautions against his own men even against the enemy, Terror was the agent with which he worked—bence an unsparing recourse to milit execu. tions, He himself ent as judge without appeal, and nie fuspicions were his law. The good effect that ma: be ox pected from this maee of hurnan calamity is that ie sys. tem of filibusterism, as practised for too many years past, indirectly under Ue auspices, and certain; the conni- vance, of the United States, may receive ite ceathblow. ‘Even among the desperate men who commonly engage in such enterprises can it be supposed that the filtbuster’s trade will any longer be a popular one, when they have learnt by the fatal experience of Walk ompanions what that trade reilly means?

But excess of speculation invored | Le anes who have stood ready to take advantage of tbe impulse, has, again in the present moment as jt did in the autumn of last year, threatened to defeat the improvement by overdoing it; and we in bn land are under the same com pressure which vi- sited us inthe autumn At the same time there appears to be no suspense in developing, extending and multiplying the immense joint stock combinations which the French emperor bas endeayored to restrain; though at such a time such operations ougat to be entirely suspended. We see on the stocks the new International Society of Com- mercial Credit, whose founders are connected with the great money ¢ in every capital of Europe—the banks of France, England, Amsterdam, &c. The list of the Council of Administration of the grand company lies be- fore us. Of the great Russian Raitway Company half of the members short of one are Russians, and the greater punfber in that half are Councillors of State and officers in the service of the Emperor Alexander. In that Russian half, however, we see the name of “Thomas Baring, banker, in London.” The other half consists of men whose Lames are well known ia every capital: S. Gwyer, mem- ber of the Conucil of Commerce, Erue-t Sillem, a part- ner in the house of Hope & Co, at Amsterdam; Guillaume Borski, banker in Amsterdam; Francis Baring, banker in London; Henri Hottinguer, banker in Pari Isaac Pereire, administrator of the Pars an@ Lyons Rai way; Baron Seillere, banker in Paris; M. Auguste Thu neysken, administrator of the West of France Railws and M. Louis Fould, brother of the well-known State finan me of these are the names we 80 constantly en- in that comparatively small list of men who are administering the greatest fnaucial operations in Paris, Vienna, St. Petersburg, Amsterdam and London. The ob- Ject of this company is’ to take forty-five millions of caps tai—a sum which could easily be raised for reproductive purposes, but which they intend to sink in railways through the Russian deseris; while the actual state of the whole woi Purope, Khgland, America, and the far East—proves that we cannot spare that forty-five millions, nor even the first instalment of it. Yot these few gentle- men whé rule the world at present have determined that it shall be taken, despite the Emperor of the French, the Bank of England, or the commercial public of this country. It is said that the position of M. de Morny is not satistae. ther to the Emperor of all the Rus#ias or to the Em- peror of the French; but M. de Morny is fulfilling a career which bas become independent of emperors. He has at- 4 himself to the Grand Council of the International ®, and itis that Grand Council at present which ar- the aflairs of the world by the power of the purse ntates abd parliaments think what they may. ‘The r of the French i+ at present engaged in attempting rain the use of fi tious titles—counties, vis-countion, ‘onies—baubles at which the aristocracy of weaith may laugh.

France would certainly not be re presented by Pe no country by a Rothschild; a Steig. Mita is by no means exclusively Russian, any more than Fouk! is French, The elas is alien to any particular coun: try, and yet is deeply reoted in the administration of each ntry. It can eommand not only a mass of capital nough to determine the finaneial operations of a government, the euccers or failure of @ State loan, but It can Influence, bene- Lelally or fatally, the course of trade, by turning apon any ope branch the combined mass of capitals from States else- where, just as the five potentates of Europe can muster an artoy which would crush the people of any one empire mutibying against any one of the five. But this grand council of millionaires tas proved that it is superior to the polisical administration of the separate countries, It is at once alien to the aristocracy of any country, and yet becoming more fowerful, and therefore more respected, than any one aristocracy. Unlike any order which we have yet seen, it has ite home equally in Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Ameterdam, St. Petersburg or London. It ig republican, but of the aristocratic republic, more close than the Grand Council of Venice, infinitely more arbitrary. Like that commercial republic, kings bow down to it; but the Kings that now bend are the giant emperors of our day, not the brawling leaders of the middle ages. The debates of this council are not reported; its constitution is as yet unascertained and updetvermi ‘We frel its power te fore we ean define it. It is independent of political coun. cile, higher than political responsibilities, ignorant of con stitutional ebecks. It stands confessed in'the actual events of the present week; and in its independence, perhaps dis regard of the interests which it overrides, it extorts from us the question whether any account has yet been taken of the immense institution that has sprung up while erpe- Tors and common politicians were thinking to settle the world with armies and treaties.

With a profitable export ness, a econe- mical expenditure, and a good yield of home produce, the: circumstance that the balance of cash payments between» ourselves and the rest of the world is uninterruptedly against us eeems an extraordinary anomaly. La-t year conviction that our pusition in these respects could lead only toa rapid improvement in our money market was 0+ strong that the most persevering warnings Wore necessary to prevent the public from at once running wikily into» every description of foreign adventure, amd their surprise, therefore, may well bo great, when after twelve months continuance of such perky, they find themselves increasingly im debt to nations.

This, however, is little v aSuperticia) « assumption.
