however, from an English point of view, its is not the - chic f considr.ration. .ss)

Let us, for the eako of argurnent, suppose Col. Tyr
to fall within the category of deserters, the fact for Eng-
lishmen to consider Whether Coronini can claim.
the right of seizing deserters not belonging to his own
army of occupation, wherever he harpens to find them.
2dly. Whether England, without forfeiting the position
of an independent power, is allowed to submit to this
pretended right in the person of her own officers ?
This is the question with Rigland. Now, what man
in his senses would dare to deny that the right of seizing
deserters is' necessarily limited to one's own territory ?
If it were otherwise, I do not see what could hinder the
Austrian Minister in London to kidnap by his valctaill
any Hungarian refugee who happens to walk near Chan
dos-street. Perhaps it may come yet to this. From
the path England is treading, conjunctures bid fair to
come to this point. Austrian Ministers dared so much
at Constantinople while I was a Prisoner of European
diplomacy at Kutahya; the fact was not unknown to
the Minister of England ; I mYself have brought it for-
mally under his cognisance, but have not heard of any
steps taken in consequence of it by the English Govern-
ment for the vindication of international law. " Con.
siderations for Austria" prevailed then, as they prevail
now. And you have but to allow expediency to inter.
fere with right, and you will not be able to tell how far
the logic of the firet intlulence will force you to yield.
At a'l events, it is indisputable that the right of
seizure is a territorial light, restricted to one's own tor-
ritoiy. Wallachia is no Austrian territory. Though
by the most fatal of errors (I would not exaggerate were
to call it a crime), England had connived to play over

Wallac'oia into the keeping of Austria, she is not. a sove-
reign there, and apart from the authority of providing
for the security, order, and maintenance of the army of
occupation, she can claim absolutely no power—no juris-
diction there, beyond the terms conceded to her by the
fatal convention of June 14, 1854 ; and lamentable as
the act of that convention may be, there is not a word,
either in its letter or its spirit, that could, I will not say
justify, but in any way extenuate, the criminal arrogance
of the perpetrated insult.
If Austria is allowed to do thins much, why, I see no.
thirg to prevent her from seizing Outer Pacha himself,
he happening to fall unquestionably more under the
qualifieotion of an Austrian deserter than Colonel Tur,
on account of the concomitant political circumstances.
But I trust the illustrious warrior is proud of the act
that he has left the service of Austria, and boldly vindi-
cated his personal liberty of choosing for his adopted
home a foreign country to which be Las become a shining
star of glory and world-wide fame.
As to the second question, the right of a-resting, under
the pretext of de,ertion, a British officer, stripping hint
of his Eitt.4l uniform, and throwing him in prison,
while he is on special service, in a country where Eng-
land has at least just as much right, nay, unquestionably
a better right, than false Austria has to station troops, to
purchase and store military implements, and to undertake
military movements whatever, without having to ask the
permission of Francis Jiseph or of his myrmi !on. Why,
the act is so monstrously insulting, that if England, be-
sides the personal reparation due to Colonel Tur (if ho
be yet alive), would content herself with anythirg less
for satisfaction than the immediate evacuation of the
Principalities by Austria, history would not fail to pass
the judgment that England did not deserve the name,
and shall have forfeited the position of an independent
nation.

Matters take, indeed, a very sad turn. For months
the press of England resounded with the atrocities per.
petrated by the Austrians in the Danubian Principali-
ties, reconquered from Russia by the heroism of the
Turks—independent members of Parliament proclaimed
it a shame and a disgrace to see the name of an Eng-
lish minister appended to transactions referring toMoldo-
Wallachia—Austria enabled the Czar to prolong the de-
fence of the Crimea to the second year, by shielding him
from attack on the Danube—fear of Austria, and consi-
derations for Austria, sent the allies to a bloody field of
barren victories, and caused them to throw in a bottom-
less gulf hundreds of millions, and hundred thousands of
lives, a third of which sacrifice would have been sufficient
to break the power of Russia for ever, and to make
Europe free ; Austria baffled the aim of the war ; all
this met a blind eye and a deaf et,r with the rulers of
England. One thing there yet remained to fill the cup
of humiliation—that England should be insulted by
Austria in Wallachia, the mournful theatre of so many
atrocities, of such amount of disgrace ! That one thing
has been done likewise. England is insulted. An officer
on duty is stripped of his uniform, and sent to an Aus-
trian dungeon, for having, obedient to his orders, gone
on duty to Wallachia.

11 Will-England bear this likewise ? Well, she will do
as she listeth, and reap as she is sowing. Foreign dic-
tates have much power in England for a time, and are
likely to have more yet by and bye. Such choice, such
fate. But one word I would venture to say. If the
English Government has not either the will or the power
to assert the inviolability of the English uniform from
insult, England should not invite foreigners to enter her
service. What with her is a matter of national dignity
towards the foreigners in her service is a question of
honour and morality. KOSSUTII.
