Zollvssoin weal filly erawmente its loos on the

traders of every hind would be so rest so to counter-
balance mad aver over all Inner injuries, and inoon-

mimeos.
The mime we know is templation, and
able sees are labouring to prepareincon the way and
bring it about. We doubt, indeed, the suc-
cors ; for the Austrian court and ministry are
still tied by ancient prejudices, and sunk in su-
perannuated traditions. They seek the re-establish-
ment of the old exclusive and separate empire, which
aimed at prevailing over Germany, without becoming
assimilated with it. We need not say, that this will
utterly tail. Austria has but two paths open to her
—to join Germany, bring all her Sclavonian provisoes
with her into Germany, and attach them to the new
empire and confederation by the bonds of local inde-
pendence, as far as it is compatible with central
power, lid by the material development and pros-
perity, which the junction with a larger empire can
create.
If Austria repudiate Germany it must become
Slavonia, or the nucleus of ficlavonia, a plan that
has its advantages. It has, however, this danger—
that it express Austria at oace to the rivalry and
hostility of Russia, and at the same time deprives her
of the support of Germany. The best policy for
Austria would certainly be the German assimilation.
Some may think this unfavourable to our commercial
interests. We are far from thinking so. The wider the
empire, and the more varied its interests,the more would
liberal and free-trade principles prevail, and the more
facilities and advantages should we find in commer-
cial relations with it. The question, however, is pre-
mature, since the courage and decision of Austrian
statesmen are little to be counted on. And plain as
am the two paths before them, the probability is that
they will fellow neither one nor the other, but allow
the olosta to follow on in the old track, and sink into
the moopathy ; the imperial government continuing
to bowman it as an inert and inanimate weight, till
it be ion off, and the empire go asunder, into its
Selavonian and German elements, unites some strong
popular hand or power arise to stay the dissolu-
tion and reconstruct something out of the discordant
part&

We were not aware, when we yesterday addressed
our readers on the subject of cholera, that the possi-
bility of its advent was so imminent, or that the moni-
tory instruction of the Board of Health were actually
maim from the prem. The eases at Hull, and the
arrival of ships in all our ports from Hamburg and
the Baltic, rendered a speedy visitation of the malady
not unlikely. We now learn that two cases have
°evened, in Honelydown, of sailors lately arrived
from Hamburg ; and that three independent cases in
the low-lying districts of Lambeth have attracted at-
tention.
We yesterday dwelt an certain general preventives,
which are well worthy of attention, especially
is the manufacturing districts, and those
crowded with indigence. This day we pub-
lish from the (image the notification of the
Board of Health, being the result of past expe-
rience and present Wonky. The first warning is, that
the disease is not °Wigton*, not communicable by
touch from person to persoo, but that it is epi-
demic, communicable through a certain modification
or state of the atmosphere, which becomes charged
with the deleterious elements of disease. To improve
the air and condition of home and of locality becomes
thee the first duty of the householder and the citisen
in his private and in his public capacity. The
act for the prevention of contagious diseases points
oat bow these public duties are to be est about sad
performed.
