Paras, Oot. 21, 1858, ‘The Winter Season—Trade—Influx of Foreigners—House Letting—Mrs. Macdonald—A Curious Marriage Case— The Emperor's Extraordinary Interest in the Young Lady— The Empress Jealous— Arisiocracy, dc. As the month of November approaches, the compara- tively deserted streets of this fairest of cities begin to re-echo the sound of divers languages. The shops are al- ready arrayed in their most attractive winter outfit, and ‘sounds of money changing, of packing and unpacking, of ommercial intercourse, everywhere greet the ear, The hotels are besioged on al! sides, and are every day raising their prices. The houses, long adorned with the yellow insignia, emblematic of furnished accommodations for strangers, are daily withdrawing that sign, and assuming | & more independent aspect. In plain language, Paris is beginning to fill for the season It is a rollicking time for commissioners of every class, and in this city the number is legion. Every one, from the cook and scullion to the courier and house agent, ex- pects his commission. Nay, it is sometimas asserted that decorated gentlemen and distinguished foreigners, by no means excepting Englishmen, occasionally make a pretty thing in this way by their kind offices in the matter of re commendation. The system is identified with French commerce, so that any claim possessing the slightest show of reason is seldom disputed. The house agent drives his trade with extraordinary facility, for by the simple expe dient of an announcing advertisement, stating that he has an office, and will register gratuitously the address of all parties who have furnished apartment to let, he obtains a list of all such apartments in Paris. ‘The proprietors have to pay him five per cent in case of a let. Thus, it isa very poor agency that does not soon contrive the letting of ten apartments averaging £5 a | month for six months—namely £300—and many quad- ruple this sum. And when ft is considered that beyond the opening of a bureau there is no capital invested, no risk incurred, the wonder is that more broken down gen tlemen do not take up the calling. The great enemy the house agent has is the courier, who, frequently sent on a day or two before the arrival of his employer, takes good care to find no apartment suitable, the proprietor of which docs not come down with a handsome commission. Th cook is allowed asou in the franc for all she expends, and any interference with her privilege of marketing i tolerably sure to spoil the soup and poison the ragout Dressmakers, tailors, wine merchants, jewellers, dealers in curiosities or ébénisterie, all pay profound obedience to the principle of commission, and whoever can substan tiate his claim of intermediate agency is sure of his pre scribed per centage Porute de mieux, a litt ndal ® afloat about the Em peror just now which is said to have excited the susce; tibility of her Majesty, Eugenie, There isa very beauti fal lady of the name of M. residing in a cottage at St. Gioud, and the story roms that the Emperor meeting ber one day in the park, when taking a quiet ride with Col. Fleury and two servants, was so struck with her that he caused inquiries to be made, which reguited in the following romantic history :—It was ascertained that ber maiden name was E——; that sho was the daughter of an English baronet, and had very recently married a Colonel M——, a geutieman of considerable fortune. Itnmediately after the marriage the parties went to spend the honeymoon at Oxford, from which far famed University the parties returned after a fortnight’s sojourn. In the manner of the lady there was nothing to show that she was not contented with her situation; but it was observed t ; M. | who was some twenty-fh senior, Was clouded. The new married pair were visiting at the house of the bride’s father, when, in the course of the night, the whole family were roused from their sium s by bers by frightful screams coming from Mrs chamber, aud shortly after by the door being the lady herself ruing out. The res affair was, that the following night the indy and her hus band were accommodaved with separate ajartments, aud afew days afterward? Mrs. M———, amid the tears of her relatives, aud evidently with the profound sorrow of her husband, took ber departure, aud has since been liv ing at St. Cloud. M mi bold their taste in great honor, and therefore big bonnets and diminutive bustles may possibly be in the ascendant before the present year of grace is brought to a close. Panus, Oot, 28, 1858, | he Portuguese Difficulty and the Cagliars Affair—Flimey Alliance between France and England—Bitterness of the Journals on the Baptism of the Jew in Italy—Lamartine and his Credilors—Affairs at Court, dc. , dc. Tho Portuguese difficulty is settled, but not without leaving a sting behind, It is an error to say that Portu- gal has publicly protested, however, Whatever her pri- vate feelings on the subject—and there is no doubt of their being strong enough—she was not sufficiently sure of the support of her great ally, England, to do that; and it is openly maintained by all parties in France that her restoration of the Charles Georges was made in all the simplicity and purity of eonfession of wrong doing. The buz of triumph is general, 'for the real antagonist is uni- | versally considered to be England, who has thus been taught that France must not be trifled with. As for accepting any comparison between the case of the Charles Georges and the Cagliari, in the English-Neapolitan: aifair, to the prejudice of France, no one will hear of it. The Charles Georges, it is affirmed, was in every way regular as regards the law, and sailed under the flag of a friendly Power. She bad on board everything necessary to justify her position, which was produced on the first demand. She was, moreover, under the direct surveil- lance of a French Commissioner; but the Cagliari was en- gaged in mysterious and prohibited operations, having on board arms, ammunition and men, in @ flagrant state o insurrection, and she turned out of her course to land a band of rioters on the coast of a friendly Power. When pursued, she fled; while the Charles Georges did every- thing in open day, was protected by the consular authori- ties and by the special agent of her nation. Alack! alack! that the world should be so given to lying. The Portuguese version of the affair is as different from this as the poles. According to this the Charles Georges was bona fide a French slaver, provided with false decks and other accessories used by slavers; she was found on @ part of the coast of Mozambique, where she had no busi- uess, with a cargo of one hundred and ten negroes, and by the admission of the French Agent himself—Corre!— the captain had violated his duty. Totally apart, however, from the merits of the question, is the fuct that such is the irritabie position of France and Fngland, on whose alliance the peace of the world is said to depend, such their mutual susceptibility, that it is im- possible to calculate on a duration of twenty-four hours’ cordiality. It may be blown to the winds to-morrow—to- day-—at the very moment I am writing; and the worst of allis this, that matters have arrived ut that pass that the jeople of both governments would each fling up their eet and cheer on their rulers with all their souls while letting slip the dogs of war. A pretty consummation truly of tbe Russian war and all its fanfaronade of fine’ sentiments. And yet those who know the habits, tempers and prejndices of the two people— their ‘singuarly antagonistic sentiments—were never Ured of asserting, even in the thick of the mutual raid against Russia, that the temporary brotherhood in arms would only prove the germ of future hostility. Of course, the Portugnese business will be explained away. England, with her varions changes of ministry, cach weaker than the other, must continue to exercise forbearance; but as as sere asthe comet of 1858 will be told of in future generations of men, so sure is the small cloud in the ‘Wwest—at present no bigger than a man’s hand—doomed to spread and spread, till the horizon shall be black with the bursting tempest ‘The French papers still continue discussing, with acri- monious bitterness, the Mortara question; indeed, as sub jects are few and far between just now, the London, Bras- sels, Amsterdam, Berlin and Cologne journals have caught the flame, an re ever and anon flinging forth bright scintillatory articles on the vexed question. The Si¢cle says that everywhere two parties are in preseuce—one calmly supporting the rights of reason, nature and truth, and the other upholding eternal domination, with all the arms supplied by sophism, invection, Jesuitism, violence and rage. Sbakspere has truly said that “men are bat children ‘ger growth,” and no greater proof of the fact could be evinced than that for weeks together tong columns of labored rhetoric should be necessary to prove in the nineteenth century that the fact of a girl of sixteen hav- ing sprinkled a child with what is called the waters of baptism surreptitiously, and without the knowledge of his parents, Was an act which could possibly have no reli gious influence one way or the other. Good heavens! are the followers of Him who brought life and immortality to light to be kidnapped? Is Christianity, after eighteen cen- turies of trial, so poor of evidence that it must thus de- mean itself betore a child of Israel? Verily, the true be- liever in Jesus may exclaim, ‘Save, Oh, save me from my friends!” The Univers says:'—The proportions which the Mortara affair have assumed in the press of Europe indicate clear- ly at what it is desired to arike a blow. The doctrine of She is not yet twenty two years of age. Her eyes are of that lustrous hue, it is said, which is portray paintings of Murillo, and, though English, her com is that of a transparent branette. The cause of her early matrimonial difference is said to be simply a determined repugnance to submit to the ‘em braces of her husband, rather than encounter which «ke quitted him.

If sovereigns are obliged to obey a pretended natural right, preached up by writers in the public press, —_ have ceased to reign; and, what is worse, they reign only at the pleasure of the people of finance.”’ it will here be perceived that the Univers departs compictely from tLe case of the Jew boy,and endeavors tocnlist on its side a number of powerful allies, by insinuating that if the dictates of natural right were at! tended to sovereigns would soon find their thrones totter- ing beneath them. We wish po ill tothe Pope. Christi- anity owes too much to Papacy for keeping the faith alive during the night of the Dark Ages for us ever to breathe a word against the holy Catholic faith, of which he is the bead; but if bis position is so insecui hat it can only be bolstered up by getting nu maids to duck their charges in holy water and thus deprive the poor wauder- ‘ers of Zion of the children of their loins—whose natural rights, according to the Undvers, must never be placed in juxtaposition with bis sovereignty—the sooner he ant his hierarchy are swept awav the better. Bat there is evidence to show that the Pope has himself too much good sense to maintain any right to keep achild away from his parents on any such grounds, and that he, like others, is demoralized by a system which he represents, but of which he is only the puppet. M. de Lamartine, in a recent letter to M. Philoxeni Poyer, announces that if the subscription does not, in the course of three months, produce the sum necessary for the payment of his Creditors, he shall abandon France. position of the hero of the revolu tion of 1848 is y a most uvhappy one. All parties read his books; all parties speak tenderly of this man: yet one and all have a sort of— there is no other word #0 Contempt for him. appropriate— The reason, I believe, to be simply this, that while every- ting else has been wrecked about him, the personal va- nity of the man bas grown more and more insufferable. ‘This really distingvished man and writer believes the whole world to be full of his greatness, and his present the 1 of abandoning France is only another gross symp. of the monomania which besete him.

Let him have it all to fo not fling so much as a pebble into the pellucit stroarn he pours forth to obstruct its course, and it is im jo imagine a greater intellectual feast; but with. fuse to bow down to his self-idolatry, rudes his feet of clay like poor Lamartine. There is also another reason for the little regard which the world is disposed to pay to him or his dilapidated af. faire. It is felt that that which in a measure began in La- martine bas only ended in Napoleon, and somehow or ovber the organ of the republic has come to be considered as the cause of France's despotiem. The Bonapartists ought to be the most liberal subscribers to the Lamartine fund, but they have their own reasons for keeping aloof.

The Siécle,which takes the common sense view of the argument, says—"Lot us have ho subticties.

Ouseley's Treaty with Nicaragua—The British Arms in India—Trouble About Turkey—The French Ex pedition against Cochin China, de., de. We bear that Sir William Ouseley has succeeded in making # treaty with Nicaragua, and that that treaty actually grants to England to protect the interests of her subjects on the Isthmus with an armed force. We shall vndoubtedly hear (provided the rumor is trae, and I know from high diplomatic sources that a treaty has been con. ciudied with Nicaragua), that England bas no idea of ever cecuping the Tethmus. but the whole transaction is, never. thelene, ome which will require considerable explanation before it will prove eatifactory to our government. Eng- land, to be sure, has an interest to keep the route open to all nations—a form of expression which always means © Briteh subjects," but after the United States formally agree to do this by treaty, there seems to be no cause for British anxiety on that score. As great tyros as we are in diplomacy in the eves of the British press, as much are we an object of apprehension and unworthy suspicion to our European cousins. It ig this suspicion on her part which challenges ours, and which, in spite of all the pious wishes of our worthy Anglo-Americans, will keep the two nations separate and distinct from one another. Tho late news from India, while it contains new ac- counts of the success of British arms, at the same time furnishes the melancholy causes which led to their em- ployment. England is fast destroying her sepoy force throughout her Asiatic empire; and this is not an imini- cal foree—it is the force by which a handful of English men were able to govern India. The sepoys were & goverumental ine, not an army to resist a foreign invader. It cannot be dispensed with in time of peace, | pe ya ere alten sha wor fe which it is em- y over; anc destroy emergency Ueunver, wus ve teseuiee ek supplied by other means. ‘To govern India for the noxt ten or twenty years, a large army of European extraction must be kept under arms—an army which will be con- stantly thinned by the vicissitudes of the climate, and which will have to be constantly on its guard to check the latent spirit of discontent that may at any moment break out in open insurrection, With so many irons in the fire, and such large interests to protect, England can afford to overlook the ings of our fo- reign diplomacy, and abstain from meddling in our domestic one. ‘The affairs of Turkey, too, are not in & condition to satisfy Fnglishimen who are accustomed to look to the futvre, The 7imes itself admits that the peace which was patched up in Paris may not last many years; but there are indications that the political combinations, too, which existed in those days will be materially ry |. Thus we just have the news that the delegates of the European Powers which are finally to regulate the frontiers between Montene; and Turkey have decided two important questions without great difficulty, but that on the third—by far the mostimportant of a!l—the dele- gates are divided—England, Austria and Turkey etanding on one side, and Fronce and Russia on the other. Here is a chance for British writers to enlarge on the probabilities of a very long duration of the entente cordiale—a question of infinitely greater importance to England and the whole civilized world than the avolition of the transit duties on tea in the Celestial Empire. John Chinaman, with his usual cunning, may elude thatstipulation by levying taxes on the producers or shippers of tea in some other name; but the entente cordiale between England and France, when once destroyed, may not easily be patched up again, and lead to the most serious consequences. The two’ poiuts on which the delegates of the Eu Powers have agreed are these:—That the province of Inahovo shall belong to Prince Danilo, and that Turkey shall retain the Kolatchin, the late scene of many sanguinary conflicts. The third point on which the delegates were divided refers to a sea- port in Albania. Should the Prince Danilo obtain such @ port the policy of England and Austria will suffer a se- vere check, while that of France and Russia will have achicved a signal triumph. It is for the settlement of this question that the Emperor of the French, with his usual foresight, has despatched a fleet to the Adriatic, while at the same time he is increasing the number of troops in the Papal States, and fortifying Civita Vecchia. Russia is even more interested to secure a port to her enthusiastic ally, the Prince of the Black Mountain; for if Prince Dantlo once s8es a port on the Adriatic the Emperor Alexander I]. will, in ail probability, establish a coal sta- tion in the neighborhood, for no other purpose in the world than to afford facilities to the steam navigation com- pany of Odessa. The French expedition against Cochin China will bea very powerful one, and it is rather singular that while France voluntarily accepts the asistance of the Spaniards in that enterprisé, she should bave so earnestly declined that of Great Britain. 8 probably obtained on cheaper terms; and when the object of the expedition shall be at- tained’ Spain will not bave the ridiculous pretension to share and share alike in its fruits, The modesty of the Spaniard has triumphed over the graeping Englishman. he Spanish contingent will consist of two regiments of nattve Philtppines and three hundred cavalry, command- ed gga ce French officer by the name of Gar- nier, now in the Philippine service, and Don Bernardo de Langurota. Our Berlin Correspondence. Berun, Oct. 20, 1858. The Regency—Liberal Element in Prussia—Its Late Ef- JSorts—Confiscation of Newspapers—Prussian Police— Berlin Manufactories—Prussian Commerce and Pro- ductions, dc. To-day both houses of the Legislature mot in joint ges. sion, at the White Saloon, a large hal! ia the Royal Palace, to give their consent to the assumption of the regency by the Prince of Prussia, and to receive his oath of fidelity to the constitution. The whole affair will be a mere mat terof form; a though the Chambers are empowered by article flifty six of the charter to refuse their acquiescence, there is no probability of their doing 0, nor would there, indeed, be any reason for their taking such a course, since even the kunezeitung faction, who have always been most strenuously opposed to a regency, are unable todeny that in the present state of the King’s health his continu. ing at the head of the government is out of the question. Itis not expected that any serious business will be trans. acted during this short session, particularly as the elec- tions for the Second Chamber will take place next month, and the new Legislature must be convoked, at the very latest, by the beginning of January. I have mentioned already that the democratic party have deter. mined to yote at the next elections, and a partia junction has been effected between them and the libera constitutionalists, which bas found its expression in an election manifesto published lately in Breslan, in Silesia and containing a programme of the measures they intend to propose at the approaching session for @p purpose of making the constitution a“reality,”’ secaring the liberty of the press, and curtailing the exorbitant powers of the po- lice and bareoncratic. It may be as well not to be over sanguine as to the success of their endeavors, but it is at any rate a gratifying evidence that the liberal elements still existing in Prussia are rousing themselves from their apathy, and preparing to stem the deluge of reaction that has been spreading over the country for the last ten y gradually effacing every landmark of civil and religio: freedom. In the meantime, the National,a very moderate organ of the democracy, was confiscated last Sunday for publishing a leader on this same election manifesto; and the Volks-Zeitung, a more popular exponent of the same principles, was overtaken the other day by asimilar fate, to the no little consternation and disap. pointment of the public, who had hoped that more indul- gence would be shown to the press under the new than was extended to it during the sway of M. de West. phalia. Under these circumstances the ramors of a com: plete in the administration which are still rife must be viewed with greater caution than ever. I can state, however, on pretty goo! authority, that Paron Man- touflel has (added in his attempts to eifect @ coalition with some of the leading members of the constitutional party, and if be wishes to confirm his tenure of office by dismise ing the more obuoxious of his colleagues, he will have to select their successors from among such’ of his own fol lowers as have not rendered themselves too conspicuous for their antipathy to the popular feelings of the day. In that event, I understand, the Minister of War will be re- ced by ‘General Schlewulier, and the of peremptorily deolined to The great autamn fair of Leips.c, which has just termi- nated, did not come up to th: expectations formed from the revivalof trade lasteum mer at Frankfort-on the Oder. ‘The effects of the crisis Of 1857 are still felt, not ouly im the rve wader M. de Westphalia. several branches of industry within the hounds of the Zoil- verein, but in the limited demand for exportation to the south and east of Europe, and acrore the Atiaatic.

A goot many manufac turere had been tempted by the great demand at last Frankfort fair to turn out conswerably more than the average quantity of goods, and the result of this over production has been that at least one third of the mer- chandise exposed for sale bas been left on their hands. Ove of the most important branches of trade at these fairs are German printed caticors and unbleach»d domestics both articles which for a long time have enjoyed a od demand, At Leipsie, however, the business done in them was far from equalling the expectations of the manufactur ers, owing, ina great mearure, to the poverty of orders from Poland and Russia How exten vely these articles are generally sold is evident from the fact that the quantity brought to the fair is etimoted at about 125,000 pieces of printed ealicoes, and 20,000 to 25,000 pieces of domestios. the whole Zoliverein js ealeulated a n cloth produced im the na the South of Ger tions to Switreriand amd rot various deserptious es that were obtained 8, whereof the print works of Berlin and inity ly upwards of one fourth. — where this branch industry used to flourish, has for some years been entirely supplanted by our capital.

The flatness of trade in ge by the tre. mendous monetary convulsion of last actuma has not failed to inflgence the operations of the mines and foun dries of Prussia as it did the industry of every other part of Europe and America. During the first six months of 1867 aconsiderable rise had taken place in the production of the mines and the money value of the same, which however, waa overbalanced hy the reaction that enaned in the following six months. In consequence, too, of the unusual drought that prevailed throughout the summer, large number of works had to be stopped for want of ater power. In spite of these nntoward circumstances the precuve of Ge bon, with the sole exception of cop- poet en oo fnerease, but their value had e b ‘aaa mineral production of into two classes, the larger and the smaller establishments. The more extensive of them construct locomotives, steam es, machinery for miners and furnaces, tubular bridges, iron steamers, and so forth; those of the second class furnish iron pipes for gas and water works, appara- tus for heating greenhouses, saloons, &c., and many other articles, In spite of the flourishing’ state of our engine building trade, several establishments, part auviy) tb: stnaller ones, suffered not a little from the eects of the crisis, but unlike most other branches of industry thes soon recovered from the shock, and are now in full em- ‘ment again. In a factory for building railway cars and wagons, belonging formerly to Kerr Pflug, which has been purchased by a joint stock company, no less than 3,702 workmen are ongaged 80 that, including the mem. bors of their families, 10,893 persons are maintained by this single establishment. The extensive works that owe their origin to the late John Frederick Borsig I have ad- verted to in a former letter, Of the iron foundaries—ff- teen in number—which are mostly connected with ma- chine building establishments, one belongs to govern- ment and fourteen to private persons. In 1857 the royal iron foundry produced 29,628 hundred weight of cast iron articles, to the value of 168,253 thalers, and emoloyed 176 workmen, whose families numbered 394 individuals. At the private foundries the castings amounted to 360,983 hundred weight, the value being 1,775,602 thalers, and occupying 740 workmen, whose families comprise 2,180 members. These i ah will give some idea of the scale on which this branch of industry is carried on in our capi- tal, and which must be considered very creditable to the enterprise of its inhabitants when it is recollected that twenty-five years ago there was hardly single private factory of the kind in all Berlin. ‘The catastropbe of the Austria has caused an immense sensation here, and the bebaviour of the Captain aud his officers is the theme of severe animadversion, Many of the unfortunate passengers were natives of Prussia, and have left friends aud relatives behind them to deplore their loss. Among them was a gentleman by the name of Hildebrand Roinberg, a distinguished violiucello player, whose mother is a resident of this city. The reputation of the Hamburg line of steamers has sustained a blow which may be futal to its existence. It appears, at least, that the company have concluded not to run any more boats this winter after the Ist December, and doubts are expressed whether they will resume their trips in the spring. Berry, Oct. 27, 1858. The Regency—The Prince Taking the Oath—A Ministerial Crisis Approaching, de., dc. The extra session of the Prussian Chambers has passed off exactly as I predicted. It has been “short and sweet.”” Not a voice was raised to disturb the happy unanimity that prevailed in the united assembly of the Lords and Commons; and the threatened protests of the “small but powerful party’? who pretend to be more royalist than the King himself bave dissolved into empty air. The proceedings were opened on Wednesday last by the Prince of Prussia, in a speech stating the reasons that had induced him to convoke the Legislature. After the Regent had delivered his address, the members of the two Cham- bers adjourned from the White Saloon to their usual places of rendezvous, when, to save time, the same Chairman and officers were appointed who had officiated during the previous session, Committees were then elected to re- ceive the communications of government, which consisted chiefly of reports from the King’s physicians, intimating that though his Majesty was still in possession of his facul- Ges, be was quite unable to attend to business, and that it was absolutely impossible to state with certainty when or whether this incapacity would be removed. in conse- quence of the reports, the committees drew up a series of resolutions setting forth the necessity of instituting a Regency, and recommending the Legisiature to confirm it in the manner provided for by the constitution. On Mon- day the Chambers met again in joint session, to deliberate upon those resolutions, which, however, were immediately passed nem. con., and nothing remained, therefore, but for the new Regent to take the oath prescribed by section fifty- eight of the Prussian charter. This final ceremony came off yesterday at the White Saloon, in presence of the two branches of the Legislature, who having thus performed the duties for which they were called together, the session was declared to be closed, and the assembly dispersed amid the customary demonstrations of loyalty, which consist in shouting three times, ‘God save the King !"’ to which was added, on this occasion, ‘God save the Re- gent)” It must be acknowledged that all these proceedings have been strictly legal and constitutional. The Prince of Prus- | sia has done everything be was required to do by the several paragraphs of the charter; and the Chambers, instead of being merely summoned to receive the notifica- tion of a fait accompli, have been allowed to express an _ opinion a the subject, and eK grant their consent, which, of course, su @ right to refuse it rerves the more ered er this 0a to one conversant with the state of things in Prussia can bh: the shghtest doubt that if he had thought proper to have acted differently there was nothing in the world to pre vent him. As yet the Prussian constitution, like those of ali the other German States, is nothing but a piece of if the monarch chooses to respect it, well and good; but sbould it be his royal will and pleasure to disre- gard its provisions, or to throw it aside altogether, as the late Duke of Cumberland did in Hauover, he could do so with perfect impunity, at least for the present. It is ill reasoning with the master of teu legions, as the German liberals have found to theit cost, feels that as long as the governments continue wo bave evormous standi armies at their dis , constitutionaliam can only be a fiction, asickly shrub, liable to be nipped authority. It is this that gives ali man leg slative assemb ites the there is nothing they only exist upon uffrance, and that though they influence the governmeut epon some minor point, have no historical significance, and no decisive effect upon the fortanes and policy of the country. Nevertheless, the respect shown to constitutional forms by the newly i Halled Regent of Prossia is a gratifying *ymptom, and such bas made a very favorable impression in public; it evinces a desire on Lis part to act in accordance with the wishes and aspirtions of the people, and when wo reflect that he wae broug!t up in the school of the strictest abso- jutism, and was formerly looked upon as one of the main prope and pillars of arbitrary rule, bis couduct would lead one to infer that, unlike most of his colleagues, he has profited by experience and resolved to make use of the present c: to seeare # firm how on the affections of bis subjects ,as the best safeguard against a futare storm By all appearances a ministerial crisis is at hand, which may result in changes more extensive than was original anticipated. It is the general opinion that Baron Monteaf- fel bas decidediy lost ground during the last week or two, and that his long tenure of office is on the eve of being brought to an abrupt conclusion. He is even said to be #0 conscious of bis position having become untenable that he bas resolved to avoid the disgrace of a summary dis. missal by voluntarily Lentering is resignation, which, of course, would be accompanied with the breaking up of his whole cabinet. A complete list of the new ministry is already in circulation, consisting of M. d'Anerswald, Pre. sident of the Connell; M. Schteinitz, Minister of Foreiga Affaire; Geoeral Bonin, Minister of War: the revalior ite Ta struction; M. r, Minister of the Interior; retain. ing M. Vou der I as Minister of Trade of Finanes, and M. Simons as Mi fof Justice. Such an administration would be tolerably popular, consitering circumstances, with the exception of Von der Heyat, whose overbearing Gisposition and arbit:ary wneasure have rendered bim jast- ly odious to the commercial world of Prussia. According toother acconnte, Sch onitz world combine the Premiorship with the portefurlient soe an!

Thave stated all nlong that» partial change in the administration is imevitable, and Ihave no doubt in my own mind that the Ministers of War and Public Instruction, and, perhaps, the Minister of Finance, will be thrown ‘over as soon as the Premier can manage to bs 4 their places with men of tolerably fair character and antecedents; but the removal of Montenffel himself would be more than a mere change ia the administration—it would be a radical change of sys. tom, which I searcely think the Prince Regent ie red for.’ It would be a reversal of everything that has been done for the Inet ten —— Lene rss |= a measures taken and the objects paren yt te King were contrary to the interests and welfare of the nation, and must be abandoned to make room for a totally diffe- rent pohey. However desirable this may be, there is no- thing in the character of the Prince of Prossia to justify a holief in his being Inclined to adopt so decided a course. It should not be forgotten, either, that though the King bas retired from the scene, and ‘be consiuered as vir- tually defunct, he is in fact still im the land of the living, and there is a possibility—a very remote possihitity, certainly—of his recovery, when the delegated authority of the would cease, and the reins of awkw returning to power, be was to find bis Prime Minister dis. graced, his policy disavowed, and the country pledged to the purenit of a fine of action diametrically to hie views and convictions therefore, if even @ man decided opinion than the Prince to moke tabule casa while bis brother is there i# still a chance of his being restored dom and to himself At the same time I must panne would give — fat cea, ine oe be] the t's a than Hide Bonveute Thon atone time be had ‘contved by clever maneuvring there probably never was a minster his career, has found himself more EEE not a single friend, with the exeeption of a few of immediate retainers and creatures; he hag Songires same onertat cuaay party by turns, and ultra tories Join with the most uncompromising demo- a @ universal chorus of joy and exultation at his fall. The Four Great Powers of the World and Their {From the London Morning Star, Oct. 27.) The progress of the four great living Powers of the world, as the New York Hgatp pompously designates France, Great Britain, Russia and the United States, and the policy not unjustly imputed to them by the same pe na}, make a very bad iljustration of the teaching of our books of ethics. It seems it ig the natural law of these living Powers to subjugate and absorb the decaying or dead ones, which means simply that France, Great Bri- tain, Russia and the United States, being strong, are led by force of natural passions and instincts to Prey upon States | which are not so strong asthemselves, And they all work so well; not in concert, for each pursues his prey on his own account, but 80 harmoniously, recogni: the rectitude of the thing in itself and in the others, that it ig beautiful to contemplate how matters go on. Thus Engiand + ig her claw on India, aad every island or coin of vantage washed by the sea on the face of the globe—Russia treads out the moun- tain courage of the Circassians, and extends her conquests across Northern Asia to the ocean, where she has just founded a new and important settlement, and planted for- treases all around—France, hemmed in on every other side, has burst across the Mediterranean, over Northern Africa, and is cr new and powerful State in Algeria—and in the New World, the young and vigorous United States, exuberant in thel ward, and Brepare to fuldl their ‘manifest destiny”? by extending the dominion of the stars and stripes over the entire territory of Central America. The New York jour- alist reyoices in all this, and in particular is hugely pleased that each of these four living Powers, while pur- suing its own aggrandisement in its own way, never thinks of ‘hing on its neighbor’s manor. They are all stroug, and will not fight with each other, for it is their mission to absorb the weak, We are sorry to say that there is too much truth in this | view of the progress of civilization under the Christian Powers. Internationally it reduces the practice to— “ The good old rule, the simple plan, ‘That he should take who has the power, and he should keep who can,"’ But we do not see how the ‘eternal precepts of justice’? can any longer be talked about. They, at least, cannot be enforced by the example of current history. But waiving that point, it will probably be found that the com- prebensive politician and philosopher of our New York con. temporary has fatlen into a little mistake about the assumed acquiescence of France and England in the designs openly avaved of the American government on Central America. The great aggressive Powers do not in every case agree to Jet each follow its own objects. For example, there was that little difference four years ago iwbout the succession to the inheritance of a certain “sick man.’ Everybody knew the man was gone past recovery, but it did not suit the fancy or square with the interest of twoof the living Powers to allow the one nearest at hand to seize for him- self the property of the moribund. We all know, to our cost, bow furious was the conflict waged on this’ score, avd how the combatants gave iu from sheer exhaustion, leaving the coveted spoils of Turkey, and, above all, the commanding psitiou on the Bosphorus,’ still a point de mire to all, and an object which may one day awake their slumbering jealousy anew. Buta similar reason to that which makes the Straits that divide Europe from Asia too precious a position for any one great living Power, also makes the Central American Isthmus too important a territory to be quietly surrendered to the dominion of a single great Power. That Isthmus, at one or more peints, is destined to become one of the chief Lighways of the world’s commérce; and since national in- terests, and not the principles of justice, guide the policy of these living Powers, itis not in the least probable that they, being ail great commercial States, will allow their commercial mterests to be prejudiced by the exclusive domination of the United States in Central America, claim- ed_on no other ground than tbat of territorial contiguity. We refer to the topic now, because we fancy we can perceive danger of some seriou’ collision looming ahead. The Central American republics are almost ina state of anarchy. Walker, the United States filibuster, with bis gange of deeperadces, is seriously impairing the internal power and exhausting the resources of Costa Rica and Nicaragua, and it is indisputable that his sympathisers in the Union, if they do not reckon among them the Qabi- net Ministers themselves, are powerful enough to con- trol the action of the government and_ reduce it to a_pas- sive permission of Walker's doings. The attitade of the Washi ‘Cabinet and the conduct and language of the United States representatives in Nicaragua have been fett to be my le to ol —, - wee bet yd uy Dade men ington by General Cass and Senor Yrisarri, the Nicaraguan Minister there, conferring on the United States the exclu- sive protectorate of the Transit route, was refused ratifica- tion by the Nicaraguan governmentand Senate; and during the negotiations the governments of Costa Rica and Nica- ragua concluded a treaty with a Mr. tv ostensibly the agent of a Paris house, but supposed to be acting for the French government, the principal stipulation of which was that any canal or other means ef communication to be con- str between the two oceans: Id be declared neutral, ‘and be placed under the joint protection of Great Britain, France and the United States. More recently the draft of a third treaty has been published, said to have been concluded between Sir W. Gore Ouseley, for the British government, and the Nicaraguan Minister.’ In this treaty Great Britain guarantees the neutrality of the Isthmas transit route, but claims no exclusive F eiagg nbn ‘The most si 3 and Mora, President of Costa Rica, setting forth the me: haces which these two republ tofrom the United States, and suppiicating France, England and Pied- | mont to interfere and guarantee the liberty and neutrality | of the Isthmus route. They declare that during the bucca- neering invasion of their territories by Walker, the official agents of the United States were his active abettors and | coadjutors; that the United States has declared its inability. | to prevent fresh attempts of this nature, and that the Ameri- can Minister accredited to Nicaragua’ publicly boasted of | oI ing proposed as an ultimatum cither the legal | of Nicaragua by the ratification of the Cass-Yrisarri treaty , hh invasion of the filibusters. And on these or a rounds they make their appeal to Europe. Within the jast week a document has been sent to us by the Consul General of Nicaragua in London, signed by the European merchants in Greytown, appealing for European protec- tion in the Same sense as the deciaration and appeal of | Martinez and Mora ‘The result so far has not been hopeful for Nicaragua, which has deemed it expedient to despatch a special min- ister to mollify Mr. Bochenan and Gen.

Jerez nited him- self at Washington he was informed that he could not be received enti! he bad humbly apologized for the insult bis government had offered to the Union, Suffering being the badge of all the Central American tribe, Jerez consented to eat dirt, but at the same time declared that he was not authorized to aceept the pr oat MT advices neither reason nor tem uestion, ‘The hit and iy of the Isthmus is not exclu. sively an affair of the United States, bot one in which every great commercial nation of the world bas almost | equal interest.
