There is, we fear, one other actor in this tra igical farce. It is the wielder of the secret and irresponsible power—the shadow behind the throne—that looks more to his German antece dents and German future than his present British connection, that estimates far more highly his„ fatherland than his adopted country. How other wise was it that Lord JOHN RUSSELL, at the very outset of the War, felt himself justified in de- claring that we should not take a single acre of 1 land from Russia? Whence the extraordinary and morbid sensibility of that fallen statesman for the honour of Russia ? and whence his sudden change at Vienna, contrary to the instructions ofi his own Cabinet, unless he had private authority on which he believed that he could depend. It will require very strong evidence, indeed, to free the party implicated from the prima facie case esta -1 blished against him. We fear that the Emperor NAPOLEON, through a desire to consolidate and strengthen his dynasty, l and to render his throne secure for the youthful . inheritor of his honours, has not resisted as firmlylas he ought to have done, and which would have ;prevented the falling off, of England. Time will tell these matters, and we must await as patiently 'as we can the coming revelations. EASY CHAIRS. TUELTRE ROYAL, DRURY•LANE. Lessee. Mr. E. T. Smith.
