understood in some sense incomprehensible to the
English mind, but fatal to the pesoe and tranquil-
lity of the people. What are we to think of a
Government which, after gss arbitrary wrest and
banishment of Count ANDBAW ZAMOYeILi lad the
kidnapping of the young men of Warsaw, claims
the attachment of the Poles on the score of " the
" sincere maintenance of the peace, and the pro-,
" tection of the law " I
Whilst the Russian Government betrays this
lamentable blindness and imbecility, the progress
of the insurrection and the complications in which
it is entangling neighbouring governments
threaten more than ever to become a European
danger. Already the Prussian territory has been
the scene of a conflict between the royal troops
and the insurgents. The Prussian Government i
appears to have had the law on its side in this ;
case, but they have not shown such consideration
for the rights of the Poles as that the world should
be specially indignant when their own are infringed.
In the present state of Europe the political relations
of Prussia will be much affected by the manner in
which it disposes of the thirty insurgents who have
fallen into its hands. Prussia should be careful
not to identify its cause too closely with that
of Russia, since it is by no means so well
sheltered as ita Eastern neighbour from the retri-
bution which will reach even that Power. Sweden
is differently, but deeply, affected by the Polish
outbreak. The open sympathy shown by our
gallant Scandinavian neighbours for the Poles,
and especially the hospitality shown to the con-
tingent lately landed at Malmoe, has led Russia
to assume an almost hostile attitude to that
kingdom, and the mutual withdrawal of the
Ministers of the two countries from each other's
courts would not be a surprising occurrence. It
is in the nature of a conflict which engages so
much sympathy to extend its influence.

LONDON, SATURDAY. APi

Tea Emperor of Rums's appeal to the Poles
conveyed in his Easter Manifesto has been so deci-
sively rejected by the insurgents, that most persona
will be inclined to disregard the text of the docu-
ment which has now arrived as a matter of no
further practical concern. Of course they are
substantially right. Nevertheless, the Emperor
of Russia, although his authority is in abeyance,
and his forces are defied throughout a large por-
tion of his Polish provinces, can still cause so much
good or evil to Poland, that it must be worth while
to pay attention to a message the author of which
evidently intended to promise by it all he thinks
needful for the happiness of the Poles.
The Manifesto abounds in thee* professions of
concern for the welfare of the Poles, which we
are accustomed to expect in the messages of oon-
quavers in these days. The CrAs, we are immured,
not only recognise the duty of placing the
happiness of his people before him as the
proper object of government—which is muds—
but has " taken an oath before GOD and his

" to pursue that end. We are
very far, indeed, from questioning the sin-
cerity of this declaration, hard as it is to re-
concile it with the facts of contemporary history.
It would seem as if he must be lass than human
who, from a position so exalted as that of the
EILPI:1101, could desire anything leas than the hap-
piness of his people. But in anothsr aspect this
benevolence of the Eicrizon renders the cams only
the more gloomy. When great calamities can ba
traced to the evil disposition of the sovereign, there
is alirsys a hope that in some way or other, either
in the course of nature or by his moral reformation,
the canoe of the mischief may be removed. No
inch hope present* itaelf now. The recent terri-
ble conscription and this devastating war show
how vain are the most benevolent intentions of a
Russian El/PINAR as a guarantee of the good
government of Poland.
The public opinion of the age has fixed for all
rulers • standard of morality, which even a Ras.
sisal autocrat must recognise. Accordingly we esti-
mate the acctuities of good administration lees by
the personal sentiments of the monarch than by
the intelligence of his advisers. Thus the
thing we first look for in this Manifesto is

We are authorised to state that his Royal High-
ness the Prince of Wales will receive addresses of

souse evidence that the EMPEROR understands the
cam with which he has to deal. And this is
what we do not find. On the other hand, we dis-
cover convincing proofs of a blindness which,
in view of the consequences it may have, is truly
appalling. Referring to the insurrection, or in the
words of the Manifesto, to the " disorders" which
have broken out in the kingdom of Poland, the
Luanne says :
We have oily ascribed the® to the Matsumoto which
have proceeded for some time from some individuals in
foreign countries, who, from having spent many years is an
unsettled manner, are accustomed to promote discord end
arbitrary acts, and to weave plots is the dark, by which the
feelinp which one owes to a love for humanity are sine-
%wed in them, and which could even influence them to
sully the national hoeouriby crimes.

This is the language of deplorable illosiom It
is plain that the &MIXOa either deceives himself
or has been terribly betrayed. By the issliaway
of all Europe, if ever there was an ineerreetion
fairly wicribable to maddening oppression, this
which is now raging is one. But the Immo,
apparently does not know the facts. We must
ouPPnee him equally uninformed as to the conduct
of his army in Poland during the last three months,
of houses and villages burnt, and of the unpro-
voked butchery of old men and women and
children. It would be well if some sentiment of
national honour existed among the &unions to
restrain these atrocities.
From first to last this Manifesto is a most
cheerless document. We did not expect to find
in it any formal recantation of past errors,
but we had hoped to meet with something
to throw a ray of light and hops on the
future. There is nothing. All the characteristics
of good government, all the names and phrases by
which we denote just and liberal administration
are there in name ; but all, it is too clear, are

received last night-from Plymouth, we learn that Field-
bfamhal Lord Seaton died at Valetta House, Torquay, yes-
terday, at the age of 87. His lon:Whip, with Lady Seaton
and family, had been passing the winter months there for
the benefit of his health. He died full of honours as of
ram, and the heart of many a weather-beaten old moldier
will throb as the mention of the great chief's death cot-
jures up the feats of daring of which Colonel Colborne, of
the light division, was the hero.
