The concentration of the troop. of Baden, to the amouut of peso, 20,000 men. seems to be confirmed ; but we believe there is no uuthority for the reports that the „Emperor of Runts intends to march a column of his troops into Baden, or that his Im periA Majesty proposes to secure the succession to the Giiiiid - Dacry sr Biden, on the demise of the reigning Grand Duke, to his nephew, the son of the Es-King of Swaoan. The answer lately given by the Minister of Bavaria to the Ambits 1114101' of Wirtemberg at the Court of Munich, proves that Bawd; entertains no hostile intentione, such at least as will be executed by military force, or probably during the Grand Duke's life. The claims of the King of BATAILIL WOO Baden are all conditional on the Grand Doke'r demise, and are Uudeistood to be founded upon secret articles of certain treaties colicluded by . the Allied Sove reigns. who will of course permit their enforce. mesa, or couttot them as they pilaw. The mutter, therefore. will he determined in the Cabinet, and the Dote of BADEN will not he reduced to `the heces'sity of wasting the blood of his subjects. aAer bowie' ostentatiously and vainly squandered their property is a military parade, alike iuconsietest with hie rank and their happiness. • Nothing can more fatly prove the unsettled state of the public mind, and the apprehensions of further change, than the variety of political, rumours sad conjectures with Iwhich every successive arrivel from every part of the Continent inundates this country. Cessions of territory comprising whole Principalities—trusters of people. u it they were the persons! property of their Its lers—rersurals of landmarks, whether teener► able from long-cherished prejudices. or apparently coosecrated by the fume .f modern Treaties, are the familiar topics of conversetion.—and even changes of dynasties begin to be contemplated and talked of, without the accustomed reverence and mystery. This is the natural coneeqnersee. as it will, we doubt ; not, at no distant period of time, prove the pew"; of the rash awl unholy asearorev pursued * Ike great Powers of Europe at the close of the late Masi tilities. The force of ;plosion, which strengthened thrones by cherishing the notion of ware sacred union between Sovereigns mud countries, is weaken ad—daugeroasly for the Rulers of matikiad, and not, we apprehend. with advantage to their sub jects. Upon this latter point we are aware of the extreme distance between our sentiments end those of our modern ; but among the principles of err constitution, fidelity to the throne must not he forgotten. and in that nudelinable emotion which links the fate and fortunes of en in. dividual in a State with the honour and dignity of a good Sovereigns, there is not only something that ennobles the mind, btit that also tends to promote the mutual security and boppiness of both Prince and people. Itevolutioss, even as the means of good. are always in themselves positive evils ; they must of necessity be attended by insecurity of property, and shake the foundations of society; their very name is regarded as ominous. by she Ministers of every Power its Eorope, who strenu ously labour in their respective countries to perpetuate old abuses as the most effectual means of escaping them ; yet in their united coo. ' chive they utterly despise their customary max• ins' of caution, and act es if the rights of nations end the prejudices of people could be violated with impunity. They have deeply exasperated the greater part of Germany. All the or States feel themselves aggrieved, and make common cause in their sufferings. Change has been made familiar to the minds of the people, and oaths of allegiance have been regarded as the plsythings of a fanciful political espethency. A large and powerful party in France share these feelings of exasperation ; Italy is deeply imbued with them ; nor are the Netheilehtfs free (lons their influeoce. They received their origin from the Congress of Vienna. end have derived strength from the pre. scut meeting at Aix-la-Chopelie. They are .nourish ed by rumour• of threatened injustice and spoils tiou, which cosmos). to be circulated, end to which, . . pot, 'adi . ki rfool the experience or the p, eft,' i r a il feels himself justified in giving a partial belief. Europe is thus kept in a state of feverish alarm, in consequence of the revolitionary proceediugs of the Allied Cabinets, and a long time will. we fru., rlsOse before the desire of counter-revolutions will have ceased to etere l ise its influence. We this day give some further stnetriresupoti 'the new Crown piece. which, we undetstand, has been already tolled in, for the purpoite or hieing the muse of IRbTRLCC4 erased from it. This alteratimi cannot be made in the old dir. A new One must be struck. Our strictures are therefore intended snore es advice dial' censure ; for, un fortunately. the lutresion of Mr. PISTRUCCI is only one of many faults in the condemned Crown piece. that Must be avoitied in the new. Arum* these we have adverted to the imperfect state of the legend, Deems et Txtentea, on the rim of the piece. The Mint Circular, as it has been called, published preparatory to the issue of this coin, rays "The very great difficulty of Melo* the raised letters upon the edge of coins, which see struck in the collar, has hitherto prevented the Royal Mint, as well as the Foreign Mints, applying the same to the fabrication of 111101liel Wended far general circulation. the crowns of former Monarchs have the raised letters, bat de pieces p ro ng struck out of the cellar, am neither perfect is the Circle, nor uniform in Mae with elicit other: To produce the relleil letter on Me edge of th e coin, it is necessary, in order to free the piece from the cellar, chit the latter should consist of various parts; constituting what the French call the vim's orbit). Medals sad specimen pieces are frequently struck in the virile &this, but it was reserved fur the British Mint to seam. OM the task of fabricating a whole coinage, which should have the raised letter on the edit, and at the same time be sera& in the collar." This puff preparatory, totally unworthy of the subject, is rendered more reprehensible by its want of truth. The writer of these remarks has now before him • Crown piece in the reign . uf CusaLas 11. in 1662, the letter of which in the rim ! vie. " Deers et Tutainen," are raised as in the Condemned coin, but executed iu a far superior style, the rite having protecting edges,' with full room be. tween for the display of the letters, which are raised with great accuracy and neatness. There is also a strong protecting edge on the face of the coin, the want of winch is acknowledged in the notice issued by the Marren of the MINT to the Bunkers, re. commeuding an extraordinary precaution •gaiaet friction. It is to be lamented that the Also Tea of the Mitre did not refer to this Crown piece of Cusat.F.s H. The legend, Deers et Tortaneen, was first furnished fur the British coin to Sir PHILIP Lt.isTD, then Master of the Mist, by Mr. EvEi.xx, whose Treatise on Medals wad Coins, printed in 1697, contains much valuable information.--We would also advise the Mat►TER of the MINT to avail himself of the best living assistance which the coun try affords. The present branch of the Arts has been cultivated at home within the last two years with extraordinery •noses. The MAsT•R of the Mawr should turn the talents of those native Artists to his own advautap. His diligence and anxiety in the discharge of his duly are universally acknow ledged; but if ha possess not diecrimivatimi to select good materials, or fortitude to conquer vulgar prejudices, his diligence will not suffice. His work will be imperfect, and the character of the country will suffer. It is stated in an Evening Paper. that in the event of the speedy demise of the Qu EMI, it is the intim. inns of Government that Parliament, which stands prorogued to the Ms November, would be fur tl►ee prorogued to the 24th November. then to meet for the dispatch of business ; and it is un derstood that Miui•ters have resolved to pro pose to Parliament a greatly diminished establish ment for the KING. at Windsor.
