Ozny a few persona can recollect anything re sembling the toppling down of thrones and princi palities which is now &eking plane in North Ger many. Some Princes vainly resist a power which weighs upon them like a fate, and others accept its decision with the best grace they can. The first only precipitate their own ruin, and render it more complete, and the second are permitted to disguise their downfall under the specious name of an alliance ; but both equally lose their sove reignty and independence. The rulers of Ha nover, Saxony, and Electoral Hesse espouse the Austrian cause, and their States are overrrn. Mein ingen and Reuss-Crelz hesitate, and draw down upon them a declaration of war. The Mecklenburgs, Bchwarzburgs, and the like, join Prussia, and accept her plans for the future govern ment of Germany. The most remarkable feature of this transformation is the facility with which it is effected. It excites no popular resistance, not a band is raised on behalf of the I dispossessed Princes. The Prussians have in no case been invited, they are no where liked ; but, on the other hand, they are no where repelled. The reason, apparently, is, that the people regard what is taking place lees as an aggrandisement of Prussia than as a consolidation of Germany, or a*. least of that part of it which is adapted for union under one government. They feel sure that, although their Sovereigns disappear, they them selves, who remain, will have to be reckoned with, and in this confidence they watch the progress of events. _ _ _ . . The history of the Governments of the fugitive or captive Princes, or of those who are risers od for mediatiration, affords ono more illustration of the folly which in nineteen cases out of twenty besets the defenders of privileged and vested interests. Although some of these Princes, like the Grand Duke of MECKLLNBCRO, governed by the stick, and others, like the Elector of Hama, took the liberty of administering per sonal chastisement to their subjects in the pub lic street, many of them were kind-hearted, gentlemanly men, living in affable intercourse with their people, and never quarrelling with them so long as they were permitted in every thing to have their own way. They have known, however, for the last twenty years that the main tenance of their pretensions in all their rigour obstructed the progress of the country, by hinder ing the development of necessary institutions, and that a modification of their sovereignty was called for in the interest of Germany. But they took up a position which they imagined must be safe and permanent, because their advisers told them it was • conservative. Instead of calmly studying the great movements of the age, the growth of national wants, and the tendency of national ideas, they entrenched themselves in their legal rights, and foolishly claimed a certain sacredness for arrange ments wisich were neither justified by utility, nor bad lasted long enough to be buttressed by prejudice. They were so far successful as to be able by union and concert to defeat the popular movements made from time to time to give effect to the wishes of Germany, and having done so ' believed themselves secure. They did not perceive that all this while they were preparing arms for the use of the first unscrupulous Government which should undertake to satisfy the wants of the people ; and the consequence is that these weak Princes have fallen a prey to the audacious ambi tion of a family inferior to many of them, except in political insight and physical force. There is no reason why any German should grieve over their downfall. The polif cal sovereignty for which they 'tickled dates only from the re nunciation of the Holy Roman Empire by the head of the House of iustria in 1806. Before that date many who a month ago were rulers of independent States with high-sounding titles, were only Hargraves and Landgraves. They owed, directly or indirectly, to NAPOLEON a sovereignty which was confirmed by the treaties of 1815. The German people who rose and fought so nobly for their country in 1813 and 1814 had dreamt of a restoration and an energetic expression of the national unity, which the Empire had so long represented in name. But their resolutions had been anticipated by the selfish compacts of individual Princes, and when peace returned Ger many became, not, as its people had hoped, a Fe deral State, but a Confederation of States which were independent and sovereign. What is sow• taking place is not new intho history of Germanjk In 1803 ecclesiastical Princes were seculariied, and in 1806 secular Princes were mediatized, in the public opinion of the nation for a guide. But the period of public spirit was of short duration. The Diet soon ceased to give publicity to its dis cussions. In 1820 its constitution was altered in a reactionary sense. The national wants were no longer talked of, suad public opinion was declared to be a will-o'-the-wisp. The Diet addicted itself to framing exceptional laws for the protection of arbitrary rulers, and rapidly sank to be a mere police government. The only beneficent institu tion common to the States of date subsequent to 1815—theZollverein--was a union in the construc tion of which the Diet bad no share. The destruc ..Eon of an assembly so barren and obstructive ould not but be regarded with satisfaction. from the alloys of petty cautions and errors of unbelief, and as once more identified with all that is worth battling for in the liberal cause, nay, as likely, we may hope, toleadusbetter in the future, even on thievery question of reform, thanthey have ever led ne in the past. As to the new eabinet,it will find itself compelled to croneh to Mr. Lowe, as it did once to Mr. Bright. Of the two we sh ould th tuk be would not be the pleasanter taakmar:er, particularly when the task to be done has anything of an ecclesiastical bearing, and men like Mr. Walpole and Mr. Newdegate—men who really represent conservatism, and not merely the con servative party, will not have a happy time. They will feel very much like Saxons seized for a Prussian army — that compulsion may be for the general good, but falls none the more lightly on them. The ix:lithium at best will be most precarious, and if the ministry is really of this kind, a toy, and not a conservative cabinet, we cannot predict for it a long or useful lease of power. The conservative paper, the Press, says that Lord Derby made certain eve:ores to the Duke of Somerset and Lord Clarendon, which were detained in the mo n addl spirit. The Earl ef Malmesbury having the Foreign-oleo°, that poet will, in all probabi" ty, be filled by Lord Starley. Lord Cranborne and Mr. Hardy will be members of the cabinet, and the Earl of Carnarvon will be a secretary of state. Lord Derby has received the strongest assurances of support even from certain distinguished members of the liberal party who may not at present assume the responsibilities of office. The Economise greatly regrets that the directors of the Bank of England did not reduce their rate on Thursday last. There is no instance in their history of the main tenance of a 10 per cent. rate with 15,000,000/. of bullion and specie in the till. Such a reserve is so ample that in times past it has been thought consistent with very low rate', and is evidently so large that it is wholly unneces sary to Leek for more. cfs.

In a case where repreaentations so entirely conflicting as those of the Berlin and Vienna tebewams are made, it is of course impossible to say on which side the truth lies. That one of them must he grossly deceh hug the public is obvious, unless we are to suppose that, the battle which lasted two days remained undecided, and that each party, therefore, claimed the victory. Not only does each side claim the victory in the field, but the Berlin accounts state that the Prussians took Mitnehangrittz, while the Vienna accounts state that the Prussians were driven considerably to the north-east of that place. Munchengrits, where the battle between the Austrians and Prussians has taken place, is not unknown in contemporary history, for it was in this tow .1 that the Emperor of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, and the King of Pi anis, "to further strengthen their relations of friendship and good neighbourhood," signed the treaty of September 8, 1833, by which each mutually bound himself to furnish a corps of 35,000 men to his allies, in are of a fresh national move -, in Poland. ADDRESS OF THE ARCHDUKE ALI3RECH' r The Vienna Graeae publ;ahes the following eddrecs from the .A-ehrinke Albrecht to his army : Soldiers !—The moment so long expected has come at length—the war begins. Once more our neilhbocv stretches forth his hand to seize the bright jewel of or - monarch's crown which has been entrusted to your pro tection. The honour of the army, the honour of each one of us, is bound to preser ve this pledge. I cannot give you a more striking proof of my confidence than by telling you frankly that the enemy has made enormous preparations and that he is greatly our superior in numbers. The task we have to perform is a difficult one, and is therefore worthy of you. With God's help we shall once agalu fulfil it gloriously with un. wearied perseverance, and with that tenacity which is the inheritance of the Austrian, and which never doubts of itself. On our side is sacred right, which must always triumph in the end. VV natever happens nothing will abate your ardent courage ; nothing will shake your firm confidence in the final victory. Blinded by the easy suc cess which he has obtained elsewhere from his alliance with treason, treachery, and corruption, our adversary put. no bounds on his arrogance and rapacity ; he dreams of being able to display his colours on the Brenner and the heights of Kant. But this time the contest is sr:th a power which feels that its existence is at stake, and which is determined to conquer or to fall gloriously if it must do so. Make the enemy, however, remember how often he has Bed before yon. Forward, then, soldiery ! The eyes of the Emperor—the eyes of the nation—the eyes of your mothers, wives, and brethren are turned towards you, full of ardent sympathy and expectation. Forward, then, to the battle, in the name of God, and to the spirit-stirring cif of " Long live the Emperor !" (Signed) Archduke Auntscar, Field-Marshal. ADDRESS OF THE ELECTOR OF HESSE. Frederick William, Elector of Hesse, before his departure for Stettin, addressed the following proclamation to his people : To my faithful people—On the eve of being carried into foreign captii Ity, my paternal heart feels the want of ad dressing this farewell to my faithful subjects. May Almighty God take my people under his fatherly keepso7, and make the present calamity which is inflicted on me and on my house prove a wholesome trial, and procure peace for me and my people. At the same time, forced to leave the country of my fatbers,l beg that all functionaries in the parts of the Hessian territory now under occupa tion may continue to exercise their functions under the conditions heretofore in practice, in virtue of the oath which they have taken and under the reserve of fidelity which, as subjects, they owe to me. In thus acting they will best maintain, under all circumstance", the rights of the country and avoid being troubled by the stings of con science. May God soon restore to us better days. Wilhemshohe, June 23. FREDERICK WILMA 11. (zzurzs'e racaoa►ne.) THE BATTLES IN BOHEMIA. VIENNA, Jezis 29, 8.15 r.n. The following official despatch relates to the battles of the 28th inst. : _ - "Pardubitz, June 29. "The Prussians were yesterday completely de feated by the Austrian forces, under General von Gablenz. Leaving behind 1,000 killed and wounded, they withdrew to Prussian territory towards Glatz. _ . After occupying Jicin yesterday, the Prussians were attacked by the cavalry division of General von Edelsheim, they were driven out of Jicin, and re pulsed towards Tiernan. In consequence of this defeat, the Prussians last night evacuated Melnik, Druba, and Leipa, and withdrew in great haste to Niemen. The Prussian losses by General von Edelsheim's attack were enormous. " The strategic operation of the Austrian aimy was completely successful. The junction of Prince Frederick Charles with the army of Silesia was prevented. " The Austrian loss in the battles of the last three days is estimated at nearly 2,000 killed and wounded. The Prussian loss is at least equal." AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE AFRICA. (Via Rocks's Pont.)

At present the body of the chapel is without sittings, having been cleared in a similar manner to Kew Church on the occasion of the marriage of Princess Mary. The flooring will be covered with a rich carpet. The northern state apart ments, including the Vandyke Gallery, Zuccarelli-roorn, and King's and Queen's Closets, are nearly ready for the nuptial festivities, having been furnished in the ewe style as when occupied by the Emperor and Empress of the French. Yesterday the Prince and Princess of Wale• honoured the Earl sad Countess Delawarr with their com pany at a fête at Knola, the ancient seat of the Sackville family in Kent. The inhabitants of Serenades made an extraordinary demonstration on the occasion. In addition to the triumphal arches, adorned with the heraldic bear ings of the House of Dorset, on several parts of the road were erected arches entwined with the hopbine, represent ing the great crop of the county, and decorated with armour and banners. Almost without exception every house was decorated, and in many instances provision was made for illumination at night. The Crown Princess of Prussia was to remove last Thursday with the royal children to Heringsdorf, a pleasant watering-place on the B..ltic. It is stated that the marriage of the Earl of Brecknoek with Lady Cornelia Churchill is to be solemnised en the 12th proximo. Madame Goldschmidt has returned to England, and will sing at an orchestral concert given by Mr. A. S. Sullivan, on an early day next month.

The Times believes that up to this =num neither minister, nor supporter, nor independent member, out of Lord Derby's party, has listened to his overtures. The new government, therefore, will probably be purely conservative. Though this is a gre►t disappointment to many there Is no help for ft if the honour of our statesmen was to be saved. It would, moreover, be a real absurdity for the conservatives to discard their own followers and go out in quest o new comers who alter all would not bring with them a single vote. The Herold is able to state that the rumen of Lord Derby's efforts is already assured. Of course, with his lordship's well-known desire to establish a government on a broad and popelar bans, it is impossible that the minis terial arrangement can be conelnded with the MO with which an administration composed of his lordship's imme diate suppor tars could be submitted to her Majesty. But the delay will not be long ; and we hope, in the course of a few hours, to give the names of the noblemen and gen tlemen who will be associated with the noble lord in the new ministry. The Herald again *Mores the epithets of liberal and conservative, and insists on dividing political parties henceforth into oonstitutionalists and democrats. If England does not love coalitions, neither, the Daily News mast be permitted to add, does she love " third parties." England does not love, and ell not tolerate the third party, which consi t 3 of pro faning liberals,who,while they have not the moral courage of deserters, would fain consider themselves indispensa ble at once to the party tkey have abandoned, and to the party they are afraid openly to join. A government made out of such a party would never survive the ordeal of a session, and the Daily News therefore cordially moors w:th its tor/ contemporaries in insisting on the positive duty of the Adnllamites to transfer their allegiance for good and all to Lord Derby and son. The Daily News begs the liberal seceders not to feel discouraged at the thought of leasing the honest liberal• in a hopeless minority. We hold with Mr. Gladstone that the honour of public men and of parliament is worth more than the momentei/ success of any poi ; and as to the hopelessness of this poor abandoned radical minority, all we care to say for it now is, that it can well afford to wait. The future belongs to it—a long future, and u sure as the rising o: to-morrow's sun. The Telegraph expects that the new cabinet will pro bably be the cabinet of 1859, plus Lord Cranborne, and suede that Mr. Lowe has only agreed to join it upon the condition that Lord Clarendon shall consent—end this he will not do—to become the Minister for Foreign Affairs. According to the Star,Mr. Lowe has had a long interview with Mr. Disraeli, but nothing seems to have come of it and it may be taken for granted that the " Cave" wall not have any representative in the new cabinet. THE WAR. Whatever may be the wisdom of the Prussian invasion of Bohemia, the Austrians, remarks the Tines, have not as yet shown the ability to drive them from it, and though this war, if it continue, will probably give the world some of the bloodiest battles of the age, there is no reason t o beFeve that theAushians have any chance of accomes&ng the design with which they set out—the invasion of the Prus- sian territory, the capture of Berlin, and the restorat'on of Schleswig-Holstein to independence. The promptitude of the Prussian government first deranged the Austrian and federal plans, and the prowess of the Prussian army seems entirely to defeat them. Though we have still to receive the Austrian account of these actions, the positions occupied by the Prussians, says the Daily News, speak for themselves. There is, however, plenty of time for Marshal Benedek to take revenge for his defeats, there being no longer any doubt as to the serious intention of the Prussians to prosecute the war in Bohemia. • The Pod cannot help thinking the Prussians are rather prematr'e in congratulating themselves and their sove reign on the result of what is merely the prelude to a terrible campaign. The invaders have only barely crossed the Bohemian border, and, notwithstanding the loses , aid to be indicted on their enemy, they do not seem to have compelled the Austrian commander-in-chief to aban• don the position in which he awaited their approach.

I have reason to think that the Emperor meditating war and that great divisions exl among his advisers. I mentioned yesterday, am confirm it to-day, that all the newspapers undi government control have received hints foment a war feeling. There was a great excitement on the Boulevards and in the environs of the Bourse this morning, in consequence of - announcement on a big placard that M. de GROPOIUDere'I3 evening paper, LaProw, would r n liah a special edition at 12 o'clock. People tumbl over each other in scrambling to get a col of this extra number, which it was naturally supposed must contain something important. The buyers were " sold," for there was not a line the extraordinary issue of the slightest interest. The fact is that the " black man" went to the of. of the France at the last moment, and suppressed the paragraph, whatever it may have beet which was to have been the feature the extra edition. The rumour runs—and it rumour which had a prejudicial effect upon Bourse—that the government meant to ask Corps Legislatif for a carte blanche to raise a 1 during the parliamentary vacation, and that, ui advice, he had thought fit to stop the publicati4 of such a scheme. The Emperor no de want* to be free from the check of the Cot Legislatif to pursue his own plans. Prince Napol is with him many times a day urging him to int, fere at once, and representing that if he lets Austria get ahead, the difficulties of his task will be et mously increased. We hear of M. Nigra, the Italian minister, being constantly at the Palace. But Drouyn de Lhuys, according to what I am hesitates a good deal to share the responsibility war policy. He knows that war is most popular in France, and that the financial crash sulting from it would be terrible. The Emperor will probably have his own way, and meanwhile there are what are called tiraitlements at court. A Florence letter of June 26 says that the eat_ p/oyts of the post and telegraph offices at Goito have been arrested on suspicion of having fur nished the enemy with information as to the march of the Italian army, and having thus contributed to the concentration of all the Austrian forces upon Peachiera. At the Bourse, Bente fell 50c. for cash and 41c. for account. Italian fell 95c., closing at 39fr. 30c. Mobilier fell 16fr. 25c. ; the Northern Railway, 12fr. 50c.; and Orleans, Mr. A WORD FOB WIESEADIN.—The following is an extract from a private letter from an English resident at Wiesbaden :—" A good deal of excitement has been caused here by telegram/ which have appeared in the London papers as to the state of Wiesbaden. One says, Wies baden is occupied by the Prussians, and most of the respect able inhabitants have left; another, 'Wiesbaden has been bombarded, and is half burnt down f another, The Kur sad has been closed,' hc. There is not one particle of tr ith in any one of the assertions ; they have emanated from the hotel-keepers of Heidelberg and Baden Baden. We have seen no troops, either friendly or inimical; we have fewer soldiers in the town than nand, as the Naomi cont;ngent of the Federal army has left to join the Kalik brigade, under the command of Prince Alexander of Hesse ; only the depot is here ; the very situation of the town precludes the possibility of our having troops; we are out of all danger ; an immense force is cantoned in and about Frankfort, but they are moving on ; the Burled is open, and well frequented ; the bands play daily two or three ; our mails come regularly ; and, in fad, no one would know from the expect of the piece that war was all around us. The Kaithrische Zeitung, shamefully enough, published the report of the town having been burnt down. The report of the inhabitants leaving may, have arisen from the fact that many Russians ske daddled on account of losing 30 to6o per cent. on exchange. Ido not believe that one resident has left ; the duke, duchess, and the ducal family are all here." On the 22nd inst. the Swedish parliament was closed by the King, to meet no more in its ancient form. In it the four estates of the realm—nobility, clergy, citi zens, and pessante—were still represented by four (lige rent chambers, according to the mediaeval pattern of par liamentarian), the consent of three of them being required to carry a bill. This old-fashioned parliament, the last of the kind in Europe, will, in accordance with a statute enacted in the past session, be shortly replaced by a more modern legislature, consisting of two houses only. In New York there are 304 churches, viz. : Episcopalians, 60 ; Presbyterians, 66 ; Methodists, 38 ; Catholics, 32 ; Baptista, 29 ; Jews, 24 ; Dutch Reformed, 22 ; Lutherans, 9 ; Universalists, 6 ; Congregationalists, 4 ; Friends and Unitarians, 3 each ; Miscellaneous, 22.
