i ingenious political architects, who attempt to raise a

to checkmate the Treaty of Paris. Under a guise of

into an arrangement marked by the most friendly

able procrastination of the General. The practical
result, at any rate, is that the Austrian sad

The blunder thus committed by the negotiators at
Paris, in failiag to tlx peremptorily a period beyond
which the military orcupatiou should sot be man-
tained, is but the analogue of the Mesa bleeder
which introduced into the Principalities the ferns of
Austria. It is obvious, from many amenneat on-
'identical, that se attempt to ham as organise-
tics for Moldavia acd Wallachia daring the presence
of the Austrian army, sad for the ceded territory
of Bessarabia daring the presence of the Itauslas,
void be altogether abortive. The Oseassimioners—
awarding, at heat. to the theory of the IVeaty of
Pease—do sot proceed to the Wallaskisa capital with
their owe pressaceind views of goverament. The
SULTAN undertakes„ by the terms of the 24th Article,
to wanks a Liven in either Principality, with the
most liberal and oomprebesain comitation ; sad the

the whole policy of the Commimion„woild be totally
defeated by the netnews of an Austrian military
einpation. While the Comssissioners it at Boobs-
rest seder military safeness of the meet despotic
monarchy in Europe, no will of thin can stead for
law. Those who are acquainted with the policy pi-
nned by Austria wherever her standard is planted,
know fall well the maser ia which she will tamper
with the representation which it is sought to obtain
through the instrumentality of the Divans. The same
observations apply to the sesepation of the ended
district of Bessarabia by the Raines. sad it is cer-
tain that any npressetatios obtained during the
dominate of either army will only snore the
ascendancy of that odious mad impactions oligarchy
which the Treaty of Paris had undertakes te depress

Men then four months have already elapsed inn
the conclusion of pesos; and the period spleen to
lave bean marked by a °impeding ninon on
the part both of the Antrim sad the Western Go-
versants. No attempt, or at least so sesesnfal
endeavour, appears to have brio made, either by Lord
CLARTIADON or by M. Di WALEWAY4 to dissipate
the frivolous sophistry on which Austria and Rusk
attempt to justify their infraction of their own terms.
It is true that the Coransiseichers of the Western

Powers set oat for the theatre of their labours a 000•
siderable period ago. But a diplomatist charged
with extraordinary duties each se these, appears to

sbv fashion of our ierposiog navel array which con-
gregated at Petropaulovski after the Russians had
roiled! Aid if it be said, on the one hand, that the'
intentional proentatinatica of Austria and Rank has
rendered unimportant this corresponding delay, it
may with undoubted certainty be averred on the
other that it has offered a plausible pretext for that
procrastination by these Goverment&

The two *ordinal aim' which, se we apprehend,
the Cornstalks is, required to hold in view, are
the institution of a Government on principles of
liberalism sad antagoniatis to the polititel morose&
meats of Austria and Rees* and as a tromnisrelel
basis salaamed to promote the material developmest
of the Principalities.We are ourselves altaptherisdif-
farent whether the union of the two States be emolved
on, or whether their diej volition be permanently main-
Lined. There is enough of social conformity in the
anneers and interests of either to mars their moral
cohesion under any phials of their etivi/ polity. The
main object to which we tram that the attention of
the Commission win be eventually directed is
the social and political exaltation of the inferior
claws,, for the triple reason of abstract jostle*, of
natiosal development, and of an mildew of Austria.
