General IIATNAIi, commander-in-chief of the anon
of the Emperor of Ausente, has just signified Pp
command by the most brutal deeds and mocha&
Hone, by ac's and words which are indeed the
roughly Aus'rian, but Austrian of the fifteenth
century. ho massacred the entire popa .
tion of Magdeburg, held no other language. And
HATNAU'S entire conduct shows, that however the
Austrians may have advanced since then, its genesis
and princes are the some as ever.
One of this man's brutalities has been to mulct the
Jews of Buda-Pesth with a contribution utterly
destructive of their entire fortunes. They are an.
demned to this nomirally as Jews, but really as
Hungarian patriots. The public and private feeling
of every inhabitant of Peteh is known, al
Jews entertained no other scatimen's than
their Christian brethren. Such ruffians as
HeYNett, however, are of the opinion that Jews here
less right than Christians to be liberal or patriotic,
RAYNAD thinks that a Jew is naturally service, aid
that when he is not so he ought to be especially
marked out for punishment as ore doubly guilty d
the crime of independence. Hence the sweepng de-
cree of confiscation issued against the Jews of Buda-
Prsth.
Now, we must say if the Messrs. ROTtleelllLD
come forward to grant a loan to this same goatee-
meat of which like Nen is the general—at they
come forward to aid in the prosecution of this Hun-
garian war, carried on as it is at the expense of the
honour, the blood, and the property of the Jews—in
this ease the claims of M. Itternecathe to represent
the City of London or tr be foe ced into parliament u
member for it arc considerably lessened.
Austria is at this moment stretching out its mend.
cant hand to the ROTIISCIIILDS for two milli*
sterling, to be secured on the Piedmontese iedsmaity.
We arc well aware that a loan to Austria on Amen
security would not be worth the paper on which the
contract was written. Austria is paying the ineteeet
of her debt in a cuereney so depreciated that the open
bankruptcy of the Peninsular governments is aural
more a cheat. The Itaritsenieus themselves weal
not tend to a government that are found to rob then
own Jewish subjects, if the money was t 3 be lento:
that government's security. But Piedmont can psy.
The brave M. DE TOCQUEVILLE has given up the
Piedmontese to be fleeced. There is but one pottage
who can sore them, and that is the Baron Rotes-
CHILD.
It would, however, be too much to expect that esti-
taliste should embrace a popular cause. With
foreign despots for their principal debtors, they must
not fly in the face of such needy clients, by entieisiog
their policy as well as mulcting their neceikiet But,
though Israelitish bankers may not be ultra-liberal,
they must at least have a feeling for their co-religio
lats. Tney cannot in decency lend money to the
butchers and robbers of their reca—to such Taus
as RATEAr—to such imbecile governments as chow
their general officers solely for their brutality. RAT-
NAU has not one other recommendation.
There is now every prospect of this 'fungi/en
war lasting. The gallant defenders of their efruntry
are behind their guardian river; and if PASKIEWIta
have ventured, as is said, beyond it, and thrown him'
self between two Hungarian armies, those armies an
give a good acoonnt of him. This war, to the
Hurgerians, is but a national eff, rt, the
striae gle of men fighting for their own
hearths, creed, freedom, end independence, on
their own soil too, and living on their own reve-
nues. To Austrians and Russians, however, who are in-
vaders, with a commissariat to supply in a fortiin
land, the struggle is a financial one. The Antrim,
have spent their every resource ; and no one would
lend them a pound unless under the cii cumataoee of
Piedmont or some other more solvent vic:im being
bound to pay.
But Ituseis, too must come upon the met. Ifer
legions cannot tread down the populatark ion of the
Danube if the bankers of London, Amsterdam,
and Frankfort do not give them wherewithal
to eat and fight whilst they arc thus em-
ployed. Here again occurs the same liberal cause,
which we should be sorry, in such times u
these, to see great capitalists leagued with Feu
monarchs to crush. It would be a feudal
identity. And if any one thing could give
a shadow of reason to the indicaive threats of the
socialiets against the wealthy, it would be to re
the holders of wealth always ready to coalesce ail
the wielders of the sword against the rights and the
happiness of mankind.
But, liberalism apart, and general humanitytA
there remains still the peculiarly Jewish quote%
and the united Austrian and Russian persecution(
that race. if the old contumelious laws against the
Jews have been abolished, wherever libtrad'sra her
advanced, they are still to be found in eastern Europe.
No Jew can carry on business in St. Petersburg.
This the Itoritscutus well know, for they serve it
vain to establish a house there in 1817. Under these
circumstances, and their disgraceful law, will
come forward and lend Russia moneys, in order to
extirpate the last hopes of freedom and civilisation
bound up with the Hungarian cause ?

To judge from the election for Reading it weal
be natural to conclude that parliamentary honours
were at a discount. Usually the moment a niewbg
dies there are half-a-dozen eligible candidates in the
field. At Kidderminster, for example, no sooner
was the death of Mr. GODSON notified than four
eligible liberals and as many good conservatives wee
announced. But the vacancy at Itowding app" td
to prevent no temptations to the tried and reputed
politician. Instead of six or ei6ht candidates, any ter 01
whom it might have been a credit to return, Bevil
had not one on any side who was either favourab4
known to the place or to the public.

The canoe of this is easily explained. Rea
has got a dishonourable reputation. With the (uncle
exception of Mr. Justice TALIOURD, not a member
has sat for this town for years except
by the well-understood purchase of the voters. gee
of reputation will not thrust themselves in the way of
this description of constituency, if it is possible to
avoid it. No one who knows the character of the
place walks down Field-lane with his handkerchief
hanging out of his pocket. Neither will any one who
has a becoming respect for himself, or far hie purse,
walk into Reading as a candidate on the eve of Ist

election.
Had Reading been a different sort of borough, lel
fit and proper men might, and doubtless would, ha"
been found to supply the vacancy. There woe
members who lost their elections in 1847 from Itboa'
any class of politicians at Reading might, under other
circumstances, hive selected a good candidate. 01
