By & strange concatenation of circumstances, the issue of the Polish question depends in a great measure ‘on the course of events in America. If the troubles on your side of the Atlantic and the cotton famine in | France should continue, the action of Louis Napo- Jom will be paralyzed, and he will to refrain from that may add to the complications of European polities. Thus, it may be truly said that war in America involves peace in Europe, and vice versa. The French statesmen are fully aware of this,and hence their en deavors to induce England to join them in effecting a ces. sation of hostilities in America. Baron Gros, saye a letter from Pari, bas toformed Earl Ressell that bis government would be in a most embarrassing predicament if, in oonseynance of the continuation of the American war, the mao@acturing districts should remain without em. ployment, and the mild winter, followed, ar it probably ‘will be, by a late spring, should, crops. Scenes like those that Ashton and Staley bridge would, he remarks, have quite a nolens = wolens, ® failure of the recently occurred at lead to Karl that pow the state of the United King- dom: such as to inspire serious uneasiness; but he observed that more than four months cannot elapse before the next harvest; that in the meanwhile one of the belligerent parties in America might succeed in striking a @ocisive blow, or that the friends of peace at the North might gain the upper hand and force the White House to agree to a compromise without the interference of foreign Powers. If by the middle of summer the prospects of the harvest should appear unsatisfactory, the import of cotton from India prove iusufficient, and the interests of Great Britain imperatively demand the termination of the strug- gle, the Cabinet of St. James would not hesitate to propose Such measures to Parliament 98 were enjoined by the ne- cessitios of self-preseryation, and in that event it would gladly accept the ¢o-operation of France. Af this statement be correct, (and there seems no reason to call it in question,) a new and energetic attempt at mediation on the part of France ana England may be ex- pecied before the prorogation of Parliament in July or August, unless by that time affairs in America should have taken such a turn as to render it supererogatory. Immense sensation was created on Saturday by a telegram in the Cologne ¢azette, asserting with all the positiveness of an inspired organ that France had taken entirely new ground in the Polish question; that she had resolved to demand the complete independence of the kingdom of Poland, and to propose the Duke of Leuchten- berg as candidate for the new throne. According to the statement, Austria and Prussia were to retain their share of the spoil, and Russia the territory east of the Niemen and the ; but that part of the country which had been constituted a separate kingdom by the treaty of Vienua was to be relieved from all farther connectiou with Rus: except such as was pro duced by the relationship of its sovereign with the Czar—(it will be recoliscted that the Duke of Leuchten- burg is maternally a grandson of the late Emperor Nicholas and paternally of Euyene Reauharnois, stepson of the Virst Napoleon). M, Drouyn de Lhuys, it was said, had im»srted this ‘scheme to the ambassadors of the kreat Powers, and the tndependence of Poland had be- come the mot d’ordre of Freveh policy. ‘the fact,” added the Cologne Gazette, is beyond dispute, and it only re- ma to be seen how far France will go in support ot her new programme. A great deal wile of course, depend upon the attitude of the other Powers, especially of England and Austria; but it appears that Lord Palmerston is not unfavorable to the French pisns, and it 18 certain that Austria bas given assurances to Louis Napoleon, the uon-fulilment of which may cost her dear If this intelli had been contained in any other per it would . to the off © excited little attention, opposed, as declarations of M. Billault in the French it renate, and 20 all we have heard hitherto of the nego- tations going on between the Western Powers and the court of Vienna, But the position of the Cologne Gizette towards the French government is peculiar. It was the only liberal journal in Germany, the ‘one vile excep- tion,” that dured to express its approval of the coup d'etat, and ever sine it has manifested a sneaking kindness for the hero of the 2d December, and been employed oc sionally to spread such reports and propagate such ideas as could not be diffused by the French press without com- promising the government, which the present system ot censorship renders answerable tor every word it allows to be published. There are strong reasons to suspect, therefore, that at any rate the proposal alluded to was a balivn d'essai—a feeler thrown out to indicate the new groove in which French policy was about to enter, avd to prepare the public’ mind for the con: lingencies it would lead to. For it is sufticiently obvious that a plan of the nature described could not be carried into effect peaceably, and would require more energetic arguments to enforce it than mere diplo matic notes. To be sure, if the Emperor of Russia under- stocd his own interest, he would be glad of a decent op- portunity of getting rid of Poland, which is of no more real advantage to him than Venetia is to Austria, and which the events of the last fifty years have shown cxn neither ‘ve subdued by terror nor conciliated by indulgence. Rut monarchs—and for that matter nations too—bave never been known to give up voluntarily what they look upon as their rightful property, and we may bo certain that the Czar would risk overything rather than submit tamely to be deprived of so considerable a slice of his dominions. The resistance of Prussia would, if possible, be even more strennous; for in her case the re-establishment of an independent kingdom of Poland would not merely touch her honor, but endanger ber very existence, as the new Stato would infallibly—and probably at no very distant period—aspire to the reconquest of its former provinces, and especially of those now occupied by Prussia, which are the only oves that give it free access to be sea. If, then, Louis Napoleon had really determined te attempt the restoration of Polaod, be must have dove 80 with the full consciousness that his object could only be attained by a war against Prussia and Russia; and, as in that event the first blow would fall upon Prussia, it is easy to imagine the alarm excited by the disclosures of the Cologne Gazette. In its impression of Monday, however, that journal part. ly aliays the apprehensions it had roused by a second com- munication from the same quarter, avowing that, though the project above mentioned had beon uuder ‘serious consideration, #t had been abandoned, or at least post- poned, by the French government. Austria, it is alleged, ‘was not found so compliant as had been expected, and as Prince Metternich given Louis Napoleon reason to an- ticipate. she had been alarmed for the safety of Galicia, aud the French Emperor had satisiied himself that instead of her co-operation he could at best only calculate upon her neutrality, and might perhaps eveu fina her in the camp of his enemies. ‘Kor the pre sent, therefore, the: idea of erecting Toland mto an independent State has been dropped, partly through the hesitation of austria, and partly, tn consequence ‘of the unfavorable news received from the seat war.” This palinode of the Cologne Gazette hus caused some hilarity, and many people are inclined to regard the whole affair as a canard or stockjobbing report; but, considering the relations just adverted to, between that paper and the French government, and how often it has made the vehicle for important communications. it would be a mis- take to treat it so lightly. On the contrary, I am peruaded that the {dea of proclaiming himeclf the deliverer of Poland has Spee, crossed the thoughtful and brooding mind of the Emperor. He is impelled to it by traditions of his family and the feelings of his people, and if he shrinks from realizing it we’ , perhaps, attribute this to the strange mixture of mental audacity and La ase irresolution which has been so well described by Kinglake in his ‘History of the Crimean War.” Of late, indeed, owing, no doubt, to in- creasing years and infirmities, his vacillation has become more apparent than formerly: his endless tergiversations in the Italian question, his inglorious retreat before the firm attituae of \d in Syria and Greece, form astrong coatrast to the ined boldness displayed by him at the time of the coup d’e/at and the Italian campaign; but the cauge of Poland is 80 popular, and the opening it af- fords to his ambition #0 tempting, that it can hardly fail to kindle in him a spark of his ancient fire. At any‘rate, though the grande idee of a free and independent Poland may be premature, you may be sure we have not heard the last of it, and that it is slowly bat. ely progressing towards its desired solution.

Considerable sensation bad heen created in Liverpool by the seizure of a gunboat which was suspected of being intended for the Confederates. The Liverpool Post says:—The town was rather startled yesterday morning (Monday), April 6, by an announce. ment that an American war vessel had been seized in the Liverpool docks. It seems that on Sunday, Mr. Morgan, one of ber Majesty's customs surveyors, took possession of @ small gunboat—the Alexandra—in the Toxteth dock, and launehed very recently from the shipbuilding premises of Messrs. Miller & Co. Mr. Morgan acted on instructions received by Mr. Pierce Edwards, the Collector of Customs, from the govern ment, who had reason to believe that the Alexandra was being fitted for the-service of the Confederates. ‘The matter will be fully investigated by the law and other officers of the crown before any proceedings are taken beyond the mere detention of the vessel.

Poland, moreover, is no longer in tho position in which tt was placed by the Emperor Alexander I, Under bis reign a national Dict sat at Warsaw,and the Poles of the kingdom enjoyed the necessary privileges to insure their public welfare. Since the year 1832 symptoms of discontent and agita- ion commenced to evince themselves. which were fol- { [rom time to time by revolts and uscless bloodshed, government of te Queen is aware that the immedi- ‘ase of the present Insurrection was the conscription nuy imposed upon the Pousb nation: but that moa- itself was only adopted in consequence of the discon- tent which the Poles felt at the political condition of their country, The landed proprietors and the middle classes could not put_up with it. and if the peasantry did not sbow themselves so hostilely disposed, at least they did not support the Russian government. Great Britain, as one of the Powers that signed the treaties of 1315, and deeply interested in the peace of Furope, feels itself consequently authorized to express its opinion upon the events of which Poland is the theatre, ind it is desirous of doing so in the most courte- ous manner towards Russia, with the sincere wish of con- trfuting w the welfare of all parties interested. Why should not his Imperial Majesty, whose benevolent senti- ments are universally recognized, put an end. once for all, t# this sanguinary struggle by generously proclaiming am it iate and complete amnesty ‘or all his revolted sab- jects. and by announcing atthe same time hig intention ‘of restoring without delay to the kingdom of Poland its enjoyment of the civil aud pohttical rights granted to it by the Emperor Aloxanacr I. , conformably to the stipula- tions of 1818? If his Majesty did this,a National Diet avd Parliament would mest probably content the Poles and give satisfaction to public opinion in Europe.
