' • are cursed with arbitrary rule. What real progress has' Ressia made for the last eighty yearmtough governed during the greater part of this time by Monarchs of great capacity, and ambitious of glory at the same time ? Wine-tenths of its vast population have undergone no material change in the interval; and the other tenth, though they may enjoy greater comforts, and possess a larger share of knowledge than their forefathers, are still as abject slaves as they were, and may therefore be justly termed more miserable upon the whole, inasmuch as the cultivated mind bears the yoke with much greater impatience than the uncultivated mind. The Austrian Empire is another striking instance of the parching influence of despotism, where with a few ex ceptions, exercising no influence on the condition of the great mass el the people, every thing is literally in the asatu quo that it was a hundred years ago. Yet its rolers for the most part, during this period, have been animated by the most sincere desire to do good ; but there is no Royal or Imperial road to national prosperity of a durable character ; and nations can only arrive at great prosperity by the aid of liberal institutions. Let us hear no more of the inconveniences of a state of liberty, for in that state alone exist all the elements which conduce to the true happiness and glory of na tions; and it is well for us that our ancestors were of this opinion, as otherwise our situation, in all probabi. ~lily, would be as wretched, as it is now enviable. To our excellent institutions alone we are indebted for every advantage by which we are distinguished from other nations ; and it is only necessary to adhere to, or depart from, their spirit, in order to increase or lessen the distinction. . 4 These Paper,• have news from Stockholm of the 26th 'kW it is fully as uninteresting as that from the Rus sian capital, and merely states that the idea of convok ing an extraordinary Diet this year has been abandoned.

GRAND REVIEW IN HYDE PARE --- This day Hyde Park presented an unusually animated went: crowds of persons had assembled in "Tay direction, and carriages and barceaches, filled with the Nobility. were drawn up along the ride at the railings. Two carriages, containing the families of Earl Baowittow, and some foreigners of distinction, were in advance of the others, near the centre.—At DIM o'clock the two Battalions of the Grenadier Guards marched Into the Park from Knightsbridge Barracks, and formed a line, under the command of CoLTowitsuann. The Battalions were about 1,200 strong. and had an admirably fine effectlie appearance. Shortly after nine o'clock the cheers of the po. puha" eaaminced the advance of the Duke of Wastmorou and Staff. His peace rode a small grey pony, and wore the uniform bf the Grenadier Guards, of which he is Colonel, having merely a star and Wicerloo medal appended en his breast. His Grace looked well, and repeatedly bowed to the crowds who Impeded his advance.— LOrd Hue., Colonel Hitt, and a number of the Held Officers of the Royal Horse Guards and Life Guards were in the train. The Duke was merely accompanied be his Aide-de-Camp. The Battalions having formed - a line, gave the general The Duke of Weitancirox then rode from the centre and traversed the ranks front and rear. The Inspection having terminated, the line recovered arms. and Colonel Tower num proceeded to put the Battalions through the usual movements. They first marched with the columns in open column. then advanted In review'and open order, and performed several 'echelon movements with great correctness and military discipline. The advance to attack was then made by the general line in close order, the Light Companies having detached to skirmish, and at a earth dbeance the Battalions halted and commenced an independent are for a conalderable yelled. Th ey then deployed, and ionised Into a close column and entered the wood. Some time after they reappeared, at quick time, as if retreating : this movement had a very picturesque effect. The Battalions having marched at different angles, commenced firing by companies; then the Battalions sepa rated, and each formed a division. Subsequently several squares went formed. The movements and manauvres having heel concluded, the Regiment again formed line, and repeated the general salute. The Duke of WILIAM/ON having expressed his admiration of the effective state of the men to their Officers, rode along the lines, and the Review terminated at 11 o'clock. The Intund was kept by' the Coldstream* and detachments of the ed. The Duke of WIL LUIGITOII was followed by immense uowds to the door of Apsley Hour!, and was repeatedly cheered. The fineness of the day gave an additional degree of grandeur to the splendid scene. Neither the Dachas of Kan, nor any of the Royal Family were on the ground. Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, the First Battalion of the Third Regiment of Guards, wider the command of Lieut. Col. Cues glow, marched from the Birdcage Walk to Hyde Park, where they had a field-day, preparatory to the reviews, which are to take place in the course of the season. The troops went through a variety of evolutions in the finest style, the line occa sionally advancing and remelting, covered by the Light Infantry. The company attracted to the Park was both numerous and ele gant, and seemed hfghly delighted with the movements of the troops, who returned from the ground between 11 and 12 o'clock.

Sunday morning, as the soldiers of the Cavalry depot in this town were bathing in the Medway, two of them undertook to convey across Serjeant Watson, who could not swim. By some accident, when they arrived at the middle of the river, the Serjeant slipped from his sap. porters and sank to the bottom ; as he did not rise, great alarm was instantly excited, and whether the other men were unable to swim, or did not like to venture to dive, we know not, but they only cried out lustily, thit by the "Holy Shannon," the Serjeant would he drowned. A barge came up at the time, and passed over where he had sunk. In the dismay some one called to O'Neil, a recruit, who had been only a few days in the garrison, who, with the utmost rapidity, flew to the spot, dashed into the water, and diving to where the man was sop posed to lay, found bim on his back with his arms es. tended and senseless. O'Neil, with considerable dd. culty, forced the body to the surface of the water, and with those on the bank got ii out, when he employed such active and judicious means as in a short time pro duced signs of returning animation: the Serjeant was then taken to the hospital, and, in the course of the day, became completely restored. In the a ternonn, at a muster of the, garrison, the Commandant (Sir Jahn Brown,) called O'Neil out, and in a most animated manner praised his gallant conduct, which, he said, reflected the highest honour on him, and Sir John told him he should endeavoar to procure from the Humane Society a reward for him, to which he was justly en titled. Some of O'Neil's comrades afterwards made a subscription for him, which they compelled him to ac cept, as a mark of their sense of his conduct.—Mad stone Gazette.
