Imitating. We are not surprised, however, to lee=
that in Sweden, which we may alestet claim as a
kindred nation, the example of England is about to be
copied. Advice, from Ste, kbolm ennounee that the
Volunteer system, on the model of that in England, is
to be introduced. The object is, the defence of the
national territory, under Use hypothesis of the Swedish
forces being employed abroad. The eventualities tithe

ment at Stockholm in this matter.

from Mexico. The French papers assert that the
country approves at the choice, of the Archduke Maxi-
milian as its future Emperor, although, with charac-
teristic modesty, they intimate that thle would
have been better pleased to have a Frenchman to rule
over them.

-lAFAN.—Dates from Japan are to July 14th. The
Tycoon has paid the ransom demanded of him, but the
murderers of Mr. Richardson have not yet been given
up; altogether, however, matters look rather more
peaceful
GERMANY.—The Frankfort Congress has broken
up end the Emperor of Austria profanes himself
satisfied with the result of He deliberations. but in truth
little or nothing ham been done The King of Prussia
refused to the last to take part in the proceedings, and
has indeed contrived to take the wind out of his rival's
tails, by proposing • much more extensive reform than
that suggested by the Emperor of Austria. His Prussian
Majesty is for a free German Perliament, elected by
the people, and not • mere body of &darter appointed
by the Upper House. The proposition is a strange one
coming from a Prince who has deprived his own subjects
of their constitution, but whatever may be the motive
the mere fact of such a proposal being made, musi
tend to introduce those divisions which it was the
object of the Congress to hed.
INDTA.—There seem, to be no doubt as to the
identity of the man captured in Ajmere, with the fiend,
Nana Sahib. He will, no doubt, be speedily tried,
and if found guilty mtre the doom he richly merits.
RUSSIA.—It is positively asserted that the autocrat
of all the Ituasias, Alexander 11. is going to give peace
to Poland,by granting more than even the three Western
Powers demand. Poland is to haves free Di-4, a free
Press, and a completely self•governing international
organisation. V7e are much afraid the news is too good
to be tram In the meantime the insurrection gathers
strength, and in the almost daily encounters between
the insurgents and the Russian troops, the former have
the advantage,
AUSTRI A.—We learn by • telegram from TIMID&
that • number of Hnneanan notables will probably
assemble shortly, under the presidency of the Emperor,
with a view to the settlement of the Hungarian ques-
tion.

DENMARK—The probability of a nipture between
Denmark and Germany is now being freely discussed.
The Timer of Wednesday. In • leader on the subject,
remarks that, 'There are not wanting signs that other
powers besides the Germanic Confederation am
pre-
pcxed to interfere in the Schleswig-Holetein quasicoc.
Sweden is at present upon very Intimate terms with
Denmark, and bas, it is said, promieed to place • corpe
d'arisee at its disposal. France has bad intimate ono-
tiatiosa with both, and the Confederation would hardly
find its aseount in the momentary possession of a Baltic
seaport if it gained the Emperor Napoleon an axenee
for an advance on the Rhine. We could hardly Mend
by and bee the Integrity of the Danish monarch unfairly
Interfered with. Justice, no doubt, mu 4 be done, and
If the Confederation persists in this act of interference
Denmark moat and will be defended." _

24 hours the Federal operations were confined to a steady
and continuous bombardment of Fort Sumter from the

it is a very significant, though small, item. It Isles-
possible, of mune, to predict what changes the present
war may produce upon the political constitution and
Institutions of America, but ill. not diffimilt to perceive
that a great central governing power is gradually
growing up in the North, which sooner or later will put
an end to the sectional powers which have hitherto
existed in America, and which are knows by the ex-
pression sovereignty of States. Whether President Lin-
coln has acted upon predetermined policy, or whether
be has been directed by the spur of necessity, it is
quite plain that from first to last he has been endeavour-
