If the Austrians enter Saxony, either with or without the consent of King John, and occupy ihe country as far as Dresden, they will have gained a first Yate military position on tho declivity of a chain of mountains, the pisses of which, as was proved in 1813, may after a defeat be easily defended against the con- querors by the rear guard of the beaten army, and in such a way as to convert the defeat into a victory, while Defore them they have a vast plain, uninterrupied by a single eminenes, from Leipsic to the shores of the Bal- tic, where their splendid cavairy can bo soplces, with better eflect than it was in Lombardy, and In the event of avictory on their side would complete the rout of the enemy. A single battle might thus bring the Austrians to tho gates of Berlin, and involve Prussia in as irremedia- bie disaster as after the catastropho of Jena; whereas if the Austrians come off second best they have but to fall back to their mountains, ike the allies did after the battle of Dresden, where, if the Prussians followed them, they might meet with the fate of Vandamme, or, at any rate, would in all ren, be as unable to disiodge them from wir favorable positions as Napoleon was when hi red in person to avet the defeat of his general. @ Pruseian et! ists are quite alive to this danger; and if Bismark was his own master he would undoubtedly have been beforehand with the Austrians and have sent a corps weeks ago to occupy Saxony (as his organ, the North German Gazette, threatened to do); but this the King, who has a conscientious regard for the rights of his fellow-princes and is only partiall initiated in the ambitious schemes of his miniater, posi- tively refused to consent to, Bismark would like not only to swallow up Saxony, but half-a-dozen other Gor- principalities, The King, on the contrary, shrinks from the idea of despoiling sovereigns who reign by the same right divine which he lays claim to, and would not ever have countenanced th project of annexing Schleswig-Holstein if the crown lawyers had not assured him that the Prince of Augustenburg had no legitimate title to the Duchies, and that the true owner was the King of Denmark, who was perfectly at liberty to make them over to anyone he thought proper, as he had done to Austria and Prussia, That the inhabitants themselves should have a voice in the matter is of course a heretical no- tion which his Majesty would not listen to for a mo- ment _ Tis no wonder that the extensive military prepara- tions undertaken lately begin to tell upon the Prussian finances, notwithstanding the economy with which the are effected and the wretched pay doled out to the sol- dors (about three cents per diem American currency). ‘The King’s treasury, which was said to be as inexbaust- ible as the purse of Fortunatne, 1s at last empty, and. v rious plans have been formed to replenish it, A loan cannot well be negotiated, as for that the conzent of the Houso of Representatives would bo necessary, which will hardly meet before the middie of July (the primary elections are fixed for the twenty-fi(th of this, and the elections of Deputies for the third next month), and who, what is more to the purpose, will certainly not granta single stiver to a ministry of which Bismark 1a the hes Not long since, ostensibly to relieve the pecuniary em- barrassinente of the mercantile community, a royal de. cree came out enacting the issue of twenty-five mills thalers ina new sort of paper money, to be loaned on the security of goods pledged to government, and to be re- ceived instead of cash at ail govetnment offices, It was suspected at once that this decree was only a manwavre to raise the wind without applying to tho Legisiature, and it was denounced as being not only illegal, but likely to be more injurious than beneficial to trade by flooding the country with irredeemable paper.

OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENCE. Panm, Junc 8, 1866, News of the Prussion March Into Holstein—What Wilt Folin ?—The Parliamentary and Legal Position of Aus- tria—A Glance at the Two Complications, German and telian—Austria Likely to Invade Prustia, de. Although no shot has yet been fired the war has as | good as begun. To the Ansirian convocation of « Holetein parliament at Itzehoe, Prussia has replied by sending an army into Holstein for the express purpose of taking porsession of Itzeboe aud preventing the parliament from meeting. The Austrian troops, not in force to defend themselves,’ have been ordered to retire upon Altona. ‘So far the first hostile move may pass without biood- shed. But what next? Austria, by submitting the qQuevtion of the duchies to the Germanic Diet, bas played a card which, even leaving the tremendous Italian difh. culty ont of the question, renders war inevitable; for it raises this dilemma:—Either the Diet will ac- cept the ‘ask devolved upon it by Austria or it will not If it aocepts it must award what is called “federal execution” against Prussia to compel obedience to its decision, and that would be war. If, on the other hand, ehrinking {rom the peril of resorting to arms ngninet euch a powerful State as Prussia, the Diet should decline, Austtia mustfeither resume the condo. minium, which sbe bas already rejected, or allow Prussia to have it al! ber own way in the duchies. This would be a humiliation that Austria could not afford to submit to, and the immense armaments which she has been making show that she has no thought of euch submis. sion. So the conclusion js, that whatever the Diet may do, (here must be war between Austria and Prussia. It was said by Lord Palmerston long ago that the affair of the Elbe duchies might very likely be the lucifer match which would pet fire to Rurope. This prophecy seems now about to be verified. Buta match can only produce a great fire when it-comes in contact with combustible materials, Such materials are to be found in Germany. The Ger. man question i* far more complicated than the Italian.

By so doing she set Prussia at defl- ance and committed a distinct Gastein, which she had signed, Here, then, a perfectly clear Issue is joined. Prussia ts determined not to sub- ut one question to the Dict, as at present constituted, e a German Assembly elected by universal suffrace, for the pt reforming the Federal constitu. tion, Everybody knows that Bismark, who has been taking lessons in the working of universal from a very great master of the art, to japoleon IIL, expected to get together a constituent parliament which would have made the King of Prussia practically, if not by name, Emperor of Germany, Austria, which is essentially a couserva- tive Power, has given notice that she has convoked the States of Holstein to send in their wishes as to the des- tination of the Duchies to the present Frankfort Dict, and has fixed June 11 for the meeting. Prussia says this is a casus oelli, and, Promptly acting ‘upon that opin- ion, ehe has sent an army inte Holstem to prevent the Stales from meeting. So stands the quarrel, and I be- lieve torrents of blood will flow before 1t is settled. Since writing the above I have seen a despatch dated Vienna this day, which shows that events ero progressing swiftly. Austria takes tho legal point ‘that the ‘deminclation” of an_ interna- tional treaty does not imply its immediate annullation. Although the definitive solution of the question of the Duchies 1s referred to the Diet, Austria claims to maintain for the present her right to the exclu- sive occupation of Holstein under the Gastein Convention, and unless Prussia immediately withdraws the troops she has sent into Holstein—a thing which Prussia most assuredly will not do—Austria will consider the step she has taken as a casus bellt / Under these circumstances it is fully to be expected that Austria will forthwith invade Prussia with the os- tensible purpose of sending a sufficient army to assert her right in Holstein, unlose, indeed, stratecical consider- ations should snggest the ‘oxpédioncy of commencing hostilities in some other manne The Italian Position.

In the House of Commons, on the 8th of June, Mr. Gregory said he wished to repeat the question which he put to the Under Secretary for Foreiga Affairs on a for- mer occasion, viz:—whether, by the new mercantile code of Italy, the right of captnrimg an enemy's mer- chant vessels had been abandoned by the Italian govern- ment in all cases where the same conceasions had been made to Italy; and, if that were so, he wished to know whether it was a fact that in the war which ay im- minentthe principle of immunity of private property from capture at sea had been recomnized by the two great Powers of Austria and Prussia, and also by the kingdom of Italy. Mr. Tayara stated that, as he had informed the House the other evening, the Austrian and Prussian govern- ments had igsued a declaration to the effect that they were wiling to respect the merchant vessels of bellige- renis at sea, With regard to Italy he was not then able to state what course tho maritime law of that country would enable the government to pursue; but he had since beard that the nght of capturing an enemy's moer- chant vessels had been given up.§ The Rights of the Press. MR. DISRAKLI REITERATES HI8 CHARGE OF CON- SPIRACY AGAINST THE PRESS BY LOKD CLAKEN- DON—HOW THR BRITISH CONSPIRACY BILL WAS HATCHED INTO SHAPE. * In the House of Commons, on the 8th of Juno, Mr. Disraeli said:—I wish, by the permission of the fouse, to take this opportunity of adverting to a statement which I made in the course of a debate the other day with reference to the conduct of our Plenipotntiary at the Conference of Paris. His name having been intro- duced in the courSe of the debate somewhat unexpect- edly, I stated that our Plenipotentiary at the Conference ot Paris had entered mtoa conspiracy against the freedom of the press on the Continent of Europe—eapecially in Belgium. Ido not wish to enter into any controversy upon ine statement I made that night with any individual whatever; but I think itimportant that when statements ave male by members ot this House—partioularly by those who take a Jeading part in its offairs—this House, should be satisfied that those statements are accurate. It a8 unnecessary for me to enter into any arzument, I have only to refer to documents upon our table which will, 1 think, entirely vindicate the statement that I made. It ha’ deen alloged that the statement in ques tion must be ipaccutate, because on the occasion in question our ipotentiary at the Conference, in aus wer to-an invitation to have recoarse to measures for coere- ing the liborty of the presa, which had been guilty of ex- cesses in Belgium, stated that it was not for bim, a5 the Minister of a constitutional , Where the freedom of the press was established, t enter into any union for the coercion of the press, Bat, at tie same tune, he expressed an opivivn that the | netweed who had mitted the eresses alluded Lg ‘French Minister undeserving of the protection ch gcarcn'eed 0 the ite liberty and i's independoner, — It has been said that the most perverted ingenuity could not twist Uhat ox- nreseion of opinion into an act of conspiracy.
