Wm the Panrcsemoscriskisupthiapapers this massing he will haws as opportunity of observing that every known tom of government is " on its "trial." What pert of the new or old world is not now a scene of political transformation f In Austria absolutism is condemned and renounced by the Kaiser. In Naples the armies of a national King are gaining victories over those of a monarch who has ruled infamously by divine right. From the United States a popular act is announced, which, in volving high constitutional principles and signify ing the reversal and ruin of a domestic policy that has triumphed for forty years, threatens to shake the republic to its centre. Each of these simul taneous events marks a crisis, and deserves the most deliberate attention. For the present we must notice them briefly and together. The changes announced in our telegram from Vienna are equivalent to the proclamation of a Constitution. The representation of all classes of the country in the legislature, and also in the administration, is to be established as a principle. Henceforth no new laws are to be made without the cooperation of Diets of Provinces, and of the Crest Council of the Empire. The latter assembly is to be increased by 100 members, who will be elected by the Provincial Diets. Taxes are to be imposed, loans effected, and financial affairs in general are to be managed only with the assent of the Great Council. A further decentralization is effected by the suppression of three Ministries, those of the Interior, of Religion, and of Justice. It is with respect to Hungary, however, that the most striking changes are made. Her position is recognised as altogether exceptional, and all kinds of special provisions are made for her. Every other paragraph in the telegram strikes at Prince SCTIWAR. Z ENBIRG . N favourite theory of a united Austria. She will have her own Chancery, a distinguished Hun garian, one of the leaders of the recent Protes tant remonstrance to Vienna, being appointed first Chancellor ; her own King. the BM PEROR consenting to go to Peeth to be crowned in that cha racter with the crown of Sr. Srentrn; her own Diet, and her own Viceroyalty. In fine, with the exception of taxation and the army, and one or two other matters of no greater consequence, the Government of Hungary is to be national. Hun pry is to have all sorts of privileges, short of the means to guard them. How are we to judge of these great reforms I There an two ways. The first that occurs, and the most agreeable, is to believe that the Kiirlitoz and his advisers having seen the error of the system so long persevered a, have resolutely determined to found the Go vernment of the Empire on the principles of a moderate and secure freedom. Many will thus judge. The other way is, to ask of history the antecedents of the parties who now claim credit in Europe for their honest intentions. We fear that the slightest in quiry will prove fatal to that claim. Fassete- J, earn has been before Europe about twelve years, and this is not the first constitution he has pro mulgated with every circumstance of solemnity. On the 4th of March, 1849, he issued an Imperial Decree, the language of which describes evils which seem inveterate in the Empire :—" The " present condition of our Fatherland," he said, " tills our heart with sadness. Poverty menses@ " our once prosperous land. Civil war devastates " • portion of our kingdom of Hungary, and in " another country belonging to the Crown " (Lombardo-Venetia) warfare still prevents " the introduction of a regular state of " affairs." Let us notice by the way, for it is important, that while such was confessedly the state of the Austrian Empire the EIMIZOIL was carrying out his policy of intervention in the in dependent States of Italy with a high hand. At that very time RAYNAU was ravaging Ferrara. It was the policy of the Government to profess to draw near the people, and there was not a blessing that it did not promise. The EMPLILOS de clared with his own hand that the budget should be " economical, alleviative, and public ;" and it has been crushing, lavish, secret, fraudulent. Full religious liberty was gua ranteed both to individuals and to commu nities ; the Concordat and the suppression of Pro testaut synods in Hungary are the commentary on that promise. A dist of the empire and diets of provinces were decreed. The Constitution wax declared the "bulwark of liberty," the army was to be sworn to it, and the regeneration of the Empire was announced as imminent. We know what happened. The Constitution did not become a source of right to a single individual, no diets were assembled, the Minium governed by decrees —innovated, suppressed, imprisoned as ho pleased and at the end of little more than two years the Constitution was formally abrogated. One effect of the revolution, the abolition of serfdom, remained ; it was impos sible to restore that, and the ILwrasim is now good enough to say that he will not attempt it. Have these facia no beariug on what is happening now t It is notorious that the ItYPEROR is longing to re new his former raids south of the Po. BENEDEK, his beet general, has not been sent to Venetia be cause that province is urgently in need of a de- fender. An attempt must, therefore, be made to gain the confidence which bears fruit at hems in taxes and abroad in alliances and loans. If this paper constitution proves anything more than an excuse to get money and soldiers voted by the Reichanith we shall be among the first to congra tulate Austria on the result. The menace of Austrian intervention, supported by the movement of Imperial troops, does not stay the march day be rations corps at tams, Rion Oovernmont task of The stairs in order. Num, and Intelligent Americans often express surprise that Englishmen, who can Sad something to in leneskthem in the affairs even of Servians and Monte negrin' s, do not devote more attention to the course l of politics in the United States. It is strange that the obvious reason escapes their sagacity. We follow the fortunes of continental liberty because they are so hazardous and precarious, but we have no anxiety for those of our own race. We know that they who inherit our traditions and share language, literature, and religion with us, will some out right from every domestic struggle. From Naze to time we have reported and elucidated the =of the great contest now taking place in the States between the party which wants to force the institution of slavery upon the entire American Union and that other which strives to put a hedge about it, and restrict it to the Slave States, preserving the "territories," the future States of the Republic, sacred to freedom. For weeks past expectation has been strained towards Pennsylva nia, a State which now holds the balance of the Union. The Pennsylvanian State Election, the result of which shows how the same electors will vote at the Presidential Election, has just come off. The candidate of the Republican party—the party that, while respecting the right of the Slave States to guard their peculiar institution within their own limits, refuses to let them carry it into the territories—has triumphed in Pennsylvania. The Democratic party expected to lose Ohio and In diana, but hoped to have Pennsylvania. It is a great blow for them, and will paralyse their efforts is New York. Since 1820 the Democratic party has had the upper hand in federal affairs. The tide has turned. The slave-owner bears a coin, " Hitherto shalt thou come, and no further." KING VICTOR CHIETI, Ocr. 18. His Majesty arrived here at 3 in the afternoon. He was received in great pomp by the archbishop of the diocese, who, with all the clergy, regular and secular, awaited his arrival at the door of the ca thedral and pronounced the benediction.

The diploma announces that henceforth the le gislative power will only be exercised with the co operation of the provincial diets as well as of the Reichrnith. The number of members of the latter is to be increased to 100 by councillors elected by the provincial diets. The members are to be distributed among the provinces in proportion to their extent, their population, and the amount of their taxes, The Ministries of Justioe, Cultusjand Interior, as universal central authorities, are auppreesed. The Court of Chancery is restored in Hungary, and one for Transylvania is to be established. The Chancellor of the Hungarian Court is to be • member of the ministry.

While the eisiegaies of the proteetents met hale, as it ' were, to 148.11108 peasesion of their former self-government, the whole nation took part, by spectators come from every corner of the country, in the grand solemnity organised honour of Count Stephen Seecheuyi, the founder of the' academy, and the illustrious martyr to the brutalities of the Austrian police. To-day's sitting, devoted exclusively to the memory of the greatest of Magyars, attracted crowds too numerous for the halls of the academy to contain. The whole audience, by its unanimous applause, proved that it well understood and shared the patriotic views so clearly, eloquently, and even boldly expressed by Count Emile Deesewly, the president of the Academy. The same letter has the following : A year ago a number of Hungarian officers, "aid to be not less than WA resigned their commissions in the Austrian army. Theme gentlemen have just been informed by a circular from Geom.! Benedek that they ate all comprised in the conscription now In program, and mast stand the chasms .1 the ballot with the other young . men of their ap. Those, therefore, who have paid their debt to the army, and were officers a year ago, may be enrolled again t0.1110t7011 asvates, and compelled to serve ano th er eight years. This pri measure has caused extreme discontent even in the army. The correspondent of the Prase, writing from Turin under,i *. of the 18th lays:—" Zambiaeehi, who first attempted an Invasion of the Roman states, is kept a pri- soner in the Tower of Geom. His letters are full of despair and rags. Me demands justice. Although tho violent language of this man is to be blamed I think it right to make known his pcsitiun, especially now that the states of the church have been officially invaded." 2t is • E FROM leAttlb. • (mu ous own oonunrownnwr.) PARIS, SUNDAY Eviranso. The general impression is that there is no truth in the mission attributed by the ("currier du Di inatiche to M. de Hubner. Builitr's Correspond ence says that he has expressed annoyance at the gratuitous supposition. He has been estranged from the court of Austria for more than a year, and is understood to be quite opposed in politics to the present ministers of Francis Joseph. At the same time, it is to be observed, that the publica tion of the Austrian constitution infers a great change of principles at Vienna ; and it is very conceivable that the Emperor, hoping to conciliate Hungary by concessions, should endeavour to nail Napoleon 111. to his word that he would not fur ther help Sardinia, since she had thought fit to spurn his advice. The Freese, which yesterday disbelieved the news of the Courricr du Dimanche, is struck by the very faint denial of it in the Con stitutionnel and Patric The telegram of to-day stating that General Benedek and two Austrian archdukes are going to Italy, will inevitably in crease the apprehension felt at Turin of a speedy attack on the part of Austria. The report of M. Rouher in the Monitear, which precedes the decree suppressing the Gazette de Lyon, is especially remarkable on two grounds. The first and most obvious is that it is a deliberate blow at the clerical party. The decree is a practical con firmation of the assertion repeatedly made of late by the Nord de Brussels that there Is a final rup ture between Napoleon 111. and the French episco pacy. But I also notice as a curious confession of imperial principles, in regard to the press, the recital that " Your Majesty's government has thought it right under present circumstances to allow the organs of publicity a considerable liberty of appre ciation." It is a fact that never since the coup d'itat have the French papers spoken so freely as within the last few months. But here we have an official declaration that they are not to suppose themselves freer in principle than when the govern ment was in its infancy ; that they are not to flatter themselves that their provisional freedom is a commencement of the "crowning of the edifice ;" that the question whether the liberty of the press is, per se, a good thing, is as much as ever reserved ; that the measure of liberty enjoyed is due entirely to the good pleasure of the government—not to any recognised principle ; and that the latitude granted is altogether special and owing to "existing circum stances." "Progress" of this sort is not very cheering. As to the special case of the Gazette de Lyon, which was a rabid papistical organ, I have nothing to say against the exercise of governmental discretion. Assuming it to be right and politic that newspapers should be arbitrarily suppressed by the executive power, the exercise of the power in this instance is little open to criticism. A pamphlet, entitled "The English pr the Rus sian Alliance," has appeared to-day, and will, I am told, make a sensation. The scope of its argil ' meat is that the sole durable basis of an alliance between nations is that of a common interest, and that in this point of view France should turn to- wards Russia rather than towards England. The rumour is that this pamphlet is inspired by M. Kisseleff with the connivance of M. Thouvenel, and its appearance is connected with the report of a strenuous effort now making by French diplomacy to separate Russia from Austria, and Prussia from England. The grand prize of 10,000 fr., called the prix d'honneur, at the Vincennes shooting match has been won by a Belgian named Gillion, from lcimy les-Mons. The first prize on the ordinary list is awarded to M. Jules Gerard, the lion killer. To day, the weather being exceedingly tine, there has been a great crowd at Vincennes, to see the con test for the Emperor's lately-offered prise. The gun, which, as I mentioned yesterday, is valned'at the large sum of 4401., is exhibited to the public in the shooting gallery. It is a chef &enure of M. Gastine Renette. The value, of course, consists more in the ornamentation than in the serviceable qualities of the weapon. The stock is a piece of exquisite wood carving, representing scenes of sport, and there is a great deal of richly-wrought silver about the barrels and locks. At Strasburg, last week, a soldier of the 15th Chasseurs, who was on duty watching some rifle practice, received a ball in his head and was killed on the spot. The Moniteur publishes a decree suppressing the Gazette de Lyons. The ministerial report proposing the suppression says :—" Under present circumstances government found it convenient to allow great liberty to the journals, but tolerance would be weakness if dia cusaion were allowed to degenerate into injurious hostility and guilty provocations. For several days the portion of the press which pretends to repre sent the seared cause of religion has redoubled its violence. An act of firmness becomes necessary. Conscience is troubled, authority and faith an; lessened by the confusion that party spirit es tablishes between the passions and religious in terests. Religion would be compromised if the most respected principles werelowered to complicity in the revenge or ambition which the country has so often repudiated. The Gazette de Idyotte has signalized itself before all others, by its incessant appeals for agitation, the perfidy of its attacks against the government, and the disdain it has op posed to the good advice of the administration. Its number of the 17th instant more cially reached an epees that cannot be tol ." PRUSSIAN DNIIPATCH ON ITALIAN AFFAIR& The following is the text of the despatch sent by M. de Schleinits to the Count Brassier de St. Simon, the Prnasian Ambassador at Turin, in answer to the Sardinian memorandum relative to the invuion of the Pontifical States. It is re marked that the date corresponds with the inter view of the Prussian Minister with Lord John Russell ; but, notwithatanding the terms of censure which it conveys, it is observed that it upholds the very principles of nationality upon which the Italian movement is founded, and blames with a mildness which almost looks like praise, and, at all events, excludes the idea that Prussia can be a party at Warsaw to any active coalition adverse to Italy : Coblente, Oct. 13, IMO. lionidecir is (ate,—The government al his Majesty the King o f Barnes* in communicating to us, through its minister at Berlin, the memorandum of the 12th of Septem ber, appears itself to have desired us to impart to it the impression that these last arta, end the principles on which it has tried to justify them, have produced on the cabinet of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent. If we have not replied to this request until to-day, your excellency will be able to appreciate the motives of this delay ; for, on the ow band, you know how much we desire to maintain good relations with the cabinet of Twin. and, on the other hand, the fundamental rules of our policy are too well known for you not to perceive the radical difference of principles that every explanation must necessarily eats blials Leos een us and the government of Victor Emmanuel. But in prerence of the more and more rapid march of events we could no longer continue a silence which might give rise to misconstructions that we should regret, and throw a false light as our real eentimenta. Its then in order to prevent err oneous impressions that, by order of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, I shall explain to you without ruaree the way in which we look at the last acts of the Sardinian government and the principles developed in the aforesaid memorandum. All the arguments of that document start from the principle of the absolute right of nationalities. Now we are certainly far from wishing to dispute the great value of the idle nationale. It is essentially the openly avowed moving power of our own policy, which in Germany will always aim at the devolopment and the reunion of the national powers in the most efficient and powerful Orgali• satins. But while it allows immense importance to the principle of nationalities, the Prussian government cannot on that account admit the justification of a policy which renounces all the respect due to the principles of international law. On the contrary, fa r from regarding theee two principles as incompatible, it con. eiders that it is only in the legal way of reforms, and in paying respect to existing rights, that a regular government is permitted to realise the legitimate wishes of the people, According to the Sardinian note, everything should yield to the national wishes, and whenever public. opinion is pro nounced in favour of three wishes, the existing authorities have only to abdicate their power in the presence of such a manifestation. But a maxim so diametrically opposed to the most elementary rules of the right of nations could not be put in force without most serious danger to the quietude of Italy, to the balance of power, and the peace of Europe. To sustain this maxim the road el reform is abandoned for that of revolution. Nevertheless, it is by resting on the also• lute right of Italian nationality, and without alleging any other reason, that the government of his Majesty the King of Ser. dinia has demanded of the Holy See the dismissal of it. foreign troops; and that, without even waiting, for his refusal, it has invaded the states of the Pope, the greater part of which it occupies at the present moment. Under the same pretext the insurrections that bunt out on this invasion have been supported, 'and the army that the Sovereign Pontiff hod raised to maintain public order has been attacked and dispersed. And, far from stopping in the course it is pursuing in contempt of international right, the Sardinian government has just given orders to its army to cross the frontiers of the kingdom of Naples at different points, with the avowed object of going to the amistams of the insurrection and to effect a military occupation of the country. At the same time the Pialmontewe CSambers are &renaming a project of law having fee its object to effect new annexations by virtue of universal suffrage, and thus to invite the Italian people to declare formally the deposition of their princes. It is in this way that the Sardinian government, while invoking the principle of non-intervention in favour of Italy, does not abstain from the most flagrant infraction of the same principle in its re. lations with the rest of the Italian provinces. Called upon to pronouns oar sentiments on such acts and principles an these, we can only deplore them deeply and sincerely, and we believe that we Sr. strictly performing our duty in ex pressing in the most explicit and formal manner our dimp. probation both of these principles and of the application that it has been thought proper to give them. While inviting you, IL le Comte, to read the present deepatch to M. Is Comte de Cavour, and to leave a c.py of it with him, I take this opportunity, &c. (Signed) ficaumir. NAVAL AND MILITARY.

We regret to announce the death of the Duke of Richmond, KG., who expired at twenty minute@ before 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, at the family mansion, in Portland-place. For some months past the duke's health had occasioned much anxiety to the members of the family. In August last be proceeded to Gordon Ceetle, but was unable to participate in the sports of his frieudi, and the hopes that were entertained that change of air would prove beneficial were not realised. The lamented duke returned from Scotland about a fortnight ago in a still weaker state. and has since been gradually sinking. We believe he died from dropsy. The late duke was, with the axceptioll of the Martinis of Exeter, the senior Knight of the Garter, having received that illustrious order in 1828. He was Loud-Lieutenant sad Custom Rotulornm of Sussex ; Vice-Admiral of the Coast of Sussex ; Colonel of the Royal SUN= Artillery and Light Infantry Battalion' of the Militia, which his Grace had held from December, 1819; was an aide-de-camp to the Queen ; High Steward of Chichester ; Chancellor of Maris ehall College, Aberdeen, and Hereditary Coustalde of In venues; Castle. On inheriting the large estates of his ma ternal uncle, the last Doke of Gordon, he ;mourned the lame of Gordon by royal letters patent, for himself and all his then surviving issue. In politics of late years he was a supporter of the Earl of Darby and the conservative party, and was a determined op ponent to the repeal of the Corn Laws. The lamented Duke had, however, sixteen years before supported the Reform Bill, and held the office of Postrouter-Gereral in Ear! Grey's administration, and formed one of the members of the cabinet from 1830 to 1834. He also gave Ids support to Lord Melbourne's government. On the Earl of Derby t a king office as First Lord of the Treasury, in March, 1862, the Duke of Richmond was @elicited to take office, but declined the profferred honour, as he come I ved that Lord Derby could Sod a more useful person in the conduct of public affairs. The late duke was a most aukl member on the committees of the House of Lords, end for many year' devoted much of his time to that public service. The deceased nobleman was a zealous agriculturist, and was one of the founders of the Royal Agricie weal Society of England, of which society he was a trustee. His Grace was one of the princely supporters of the turf, the annual races at Goodwood Park affording scope for the display of his generous hospitality. The Earl of March, his successor in tho dukedom and patrimonial esteem, was born 27th of Februery, 1818, and married, 28th of November, 1843, Frances Iterriet, eldest daughter of Mr. Algernon F. Greville. The present duke was formerly in the army, and was aide-de-cauip to the late Duke of Wellington and Viscount Hardinge. He has retire. sented West Sussex ire the House of Commoos from July, 1841. la Marsh, 1869, be was appointed President of the Poor Law Board, and wan made a privy councillor. By his elevation to the House of Lords a vacancy occurs in the representation of the western division of Amex in the lower house of the legislature.
