THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EYESING, MAY 27,- 1852.

House of Commons—ldaynooth and all—that they
may be off in a body to attend to their own bets on
the Derby The vice is evident enough—bow to
cure it is the difficulty.
Tint Emperor of AUSTRIA, NI all the 'world inevall
holds the kingdom of Hunguy, pot.** dim, hot
by the gram of the CZAR. Rush" not Amgen
armies, subdued the people of Hungly and rrneem-
mitted them to their hereditary jailor of the House of
HAPSBURG. The CZAR has just been paying a visit
to his imperial vassal ; of whom he is said to have
taken leave with a patronising promise of the con-
tinuance of his countenance and support. Of course
the promise was qualified by the understanding that
it was obligatory only so long u the imperial vassal
me conducted himself as to merit the protection of
the CZAR.
From Vienna the CZAR has proceeded to Berlin to
visit another of his modern dependents. The King of
Peessu has done something very like homage for
the territories he holds, and with more of ostenta-
tious publicity than the Emperor of Avarua. At •
solemn banquet—from the time of TACITIOI it has
been the German custom to transact important
public business once drunk and once sober—the
Cog of l'aven• pledged his over-lord, adding the
prayer," Gov preserve him to that portion of the
world which ho has wen him for an inheritance, and
to our suoch, to which he is indispensable." The
menerefi whose Ancestor, by assuming proprio mots
the limey title, commenced that rebellion against
the German emperor' which has ended by extinguish-
lag both emperor atm empire, about the same time
that the parliaments of England and Scotland trans-
freed the British crowns from JAMES 11. to WIL-
LIAM 111., did not blush to proclaim in public that the
territories and peoples subject to the Russian sceptre
are thelproperty of the CZAR, and that to the kings of
Zeropoilesls 6, indispensable." To see Prussia—the
Natural leader of northern and Protestant Germany
—hob-nobbleg with the CZAR, excites very painful
feelings.
The triumvirate of the north-east of Europe do not
seise their attention to their own dominions. They
onset aright to dictate to the rest of Europe. They mum
ie a correspondence recently made public, a right to
estate to France its form of government, and to impose
a sovereign on it. They maintain that the treaties
if 1814 and 1815 are still in full vigour; and that by
then Austria, Great Britain, Prussia, and Russia,
'are pledged to maintain the divine hereditary rights
of the house of Bovanox. In the first place, they
declare that these crowns "pledged themselves", on
the 20th of November, 1815, "to maintain in full
vigour the perpetual exclusion of the BONAPARTE
family from the throne of France;" in the second
place, they intimate that they have connived at what
has happened of late years in France simply on the
understanding that it was a transient interruption of
" legitimate " sway, to which France itself would in
time put an end ; and lastly ' they proclaim that
" there already exists a Frenclidynasty ; and so long
as a BOURBON is found, whenever a French crown is
shaken off, to him it appertains."
The would-be resuscitators of the Holy Alliance
forget, or affect to forget, a few facts that are of some
importance. They forget that Mr. CANNING, with
the approbation of every party in this country,
finally and unequivocally withdrew Great Britain
from the entangling alliance contracted in 1816, whoa
"he Min the New world into existence to ream

of the Orleans property, and particularly with that
of M. Deogoevo--Dsimunoques, which has made a deep
sensation. Prince Jerome immediately sent a copy
of it to the minister of state, who communicated the
sass to the President of the Republic. The senators
hoped to escape being entangled in the Orleans bu-
siness, and are much annoyed'at being implicated in
so thorny • matter. The President, on the other
hand, is glad to have an occasion for trying. them.
You may remember that M. Prosper Menin€e was

prosecuted
in favour of M. Libri, and against the tri-
bunal' which had condemned that person for stealing
books from the public libraries. M. Merimee was

and M. de Mars, the editor of the Rends, was con-
demned to 200 f. fine.
The oath has been rehired by M. Ozon, councillor-
general in the Sarthe; M. Vigarozy, councillor-ge-
neral in the Haute Garonne; M. de Saban-Ponteves,
councillor-general in the Gironde; M. Pepin Barbut,
in the Gard; and M. Chambellan, in the Eure. The
delay allowed for councillors-general to take the
oath having expired on the 16th inst., a great many
have been struck off the list as seceders who have
not in terms refused. Many legitimists took the
oath before the Count de Clamberer" letter
appeared. The provincial journals continue to re-
gister a great many refusals among mayors, assistant
mayors, and municipal councillors.
At the Bourse the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. fell
