AUSTRIA AND AMERICA.

( From the Examiner.)
The recent appointment of Sir Hamilton Sey.
mour affords a pledge that the war will be prose-
cuted with vigour, no less decided than that since
given by the promotion of Sir William Codrington.
We are glad to welcome such indications ; for that
a nervous dread of offending Austria must have
possessed some members of the Cabinet not merely
since it has been purged of Lord Aberdeen, but
even since it has been delivered from Mr. Glad-
stone and the other members of the little-war party,
began to be strongly suspected.
To what, for example, but our dread of alienat-
ing a power whose fleet we could sweep from the
sea in a fortnight, and which by its own confession
cannot keep an army in the field unless assisted by
enormous subsidies from this country, are we to
attribute our having run the risk of involving our-
selves in a war with the only nation in the world.
which (excepting France) we have the slightest
reason to fear ?
Admitting the necessity of a Foreign Enlistment
Bill at all, it is perfectly notorious that in Walla-
chia we could have obtained last year as
many
cruits as we desired, without offering anybounty, re
-
and without even incurring the expense of convey-
ing
them to the seat of war. We should thus have
raised men animated with a deadly hatred against
our enemies, the blessings of whose " protection "
they had so recently tasted ; and sprung from a race
which, if it has not in late times distinguished itself
in war, has at least in very difficult circumstances
managed always to maintain a quasi-independence.
No one acquainted with the country can doubt
that the inhabitants of the mountainous region
called Little Wallachia would at once have been
found, even without previous training, very useful
auxiliaries, and that the other parts of Wallachia
and Moldavia might have furnished at least fifty
thousand men convertible during the winter into
excellent troops. Of the advantage of acting with
such Rouman axuiliaries in Bessarabia—which the
protecting power an nexed to her empire only in 1812,
when she partitioned Moldavia—we need hardly
speak. The invading army would have been re-
ceived as liberators. Ismail might have been in-
vested, a free outlet might have been obtained for
that superabundance of wheat existing in the Prin-
cipalities which is now kindly prevented by Austria
from reaching the English market,and Odessa might
have been threatened from the land as well as from
the sea.

But supposing we still doubted the prowess of
the Roumans, we might surely have accepted the
offer of the Poles. There was only one condition
attached to the proposal—that they should not be
confounded with the troops of other nations ; yet
it is understood that this condition led to a rejec-
tion of their offer. The reasoning in both cases of
course has been that, whether we took into our
pay a Wallachian or a Polish legion, Austria would
certainly feel offended.
But when did excess of timidity fail to bring in•
crease of danger along with it ? Just see into
what peril our fears have been plunging us. We
have not merely incurred enormous expense in
bribing Germans to enlist by means of a high
bounty, in constructing barracks in Heligoland,
and in conveying to the seat of war these dear-
bought and half-unwilling heroes. We have had
to suffer the indignity of seeing, without protest,
our Consuls arrested and tried by the tribunals of
the countries in which they exercise their func-
tions, because in pursuance of their instructions
from the Foreign-office they had contravened the
law ; and we have been brought to the very verge
of open quarrel with America.
The excuse made for our Ministers is, that they
were not aware of the existence of a considerable
party in the States looking upon Russia with no
unfriendly eyes. But why were they not aware of
it ? For what do we carefully select, and highly
pay, our Ministers but that they should possess
such necessary knowledge ? We thought it had
been notorious that for years Russia has been seek-
ing to conciliate American travellers (usually
per-
sons of influence in their country) by treating
them with marked attention. We believe the
supicion to have been very general, with all
who have watched the tone of certain portions
of the American press, that Russian diplomacy
has also for some years been exerting itself
not less in that direction, and as successfully as in
Germany itself. Every one certainly has known
that the Irish emigrants of '4B and 49 had not
abandoned their animosity against England, and
had been able to inoculate with it to some extent
even sections of their non-Celtic fellow citizens.
Yet now we are told that all this falls like a clap
of thunder on Downing-street, where they have
been believing as complacently in the amiable and
inalienable dispositions of America, as a little while
ago they believed in the friendly eagerness of
Austria.

We began by approving of the now appointment
to Vienna : let us close by asking whether a change
is less necessary at Stockholm. Wo have no hesi-
tation iu saying that this mission is rendered by cir-
cumstances at present one •f the most important
in Europe. Yet it is held by a gentleman who,
while employed a few years agoatVienna,neithervery
diplomatically nor very sagaciously expressed his
regrets at the triumph of the constitutionalists in
Hungary; the embassy to which he belonged
having previously reported that the insurrection
was quelled, at the very time when it wasassuming
the mostgiganticproportions. Whatare the chances
that we shall not be told a year or two hence that our
Foreign•ofhce was not aware of the strong feeling
which pervaded the people in Sweden, and was
shared oven by the Royal family, until too late to
take advantage of it ? There exists at Stockholm a
section of the nobility despised in their own coun-
try and looking for advancement and honours to
Russia alone. What security is there that the
English minister will not be misled by these per-
, sons as to the intentions and feeling of the Swedish
government and people, just as he was duped in
'49 by the Austrian camarilla with regard to the
true character of the Hungarian war ? Is a true
disciple of Lord Westmoreland, an avowed admirer
of the Austrian Government, and one who believes
that England ought to court the alliance of the
despotic powers, a proper exponent at the present
' crisis of the views entertained by the people and
ministry of England ?

PROFESSOR ANDERSON IN CUSTODY -
TBE, GREAT WiZARD OF THE
NORTH.

The following story of one of Mr. Anderson's adven-
tures, copied from a Boston paper, may not be uniute-
resting, now that the professor is about to visit us again.
The " Maine Liquor • Law," to which it has reference,
prohibits the dispensing of ardent spirits anywhere in
the State of Massachussetts, unless the dispenser be a
medical practitioner. The scene, as here described by
the Boston Herald, mist have been highly amusing :
On Friday evening, as Professor Anderson was con-
cluding his performances in the Melodeon, in Boston,
which he did with the "Bottle"—the audience were
somewhat alarmed by seeing a large body of police rush
into the ball, and, without ceremony, walk into the pro-
fessor's " Magic Temple"—a warrant was produced, not
only for the immediate apprehension of the professor,
but of his " bottle." The professor having read the
warrant, assured the audience that it was bond fide, and
that be must obey the law.
Here a scene, which it is impossible to describe, en-
sued. Shouts of "Don't go, Anderson, we'll protect
you ;" "Never mind the Liquor Law ;" "Don't give
up your bottle.' " Mr. Anderson begged to be heard.
When silence was gained, the professor stated, "That
in all countries he bad visited he obeyed their
laws—and he hoped the citizens would not wish him,
for the first time in his life, t) disobey them." He
further said " that he was not aware he was breaking
any law when he supplied the citizens of Boston from
his bottle.' " (Cries of "No !" "No I")
Mr. Anderson asked the officer if the "bottle" bad to
be taken to the police office ! " Yes !" was the reply
of the official. The professor handed him the "bottle,"
and no sooner was it in his hands than the "bottle''
commenced to emit streams of liquid fire. The " bottle"
was soon released by the policeman. As soon as he
dropped it, the fire became extinguished. Another
officer lifted it up, when fire again made its appearance
—of course he was also glad to drop it. The audience
screamed, roared, and never was such a scene witnessed.
At last the professor lifted the " bottle," and giving his
audience thanks, and bidding them good night, he
walked off with his " bottle" to the police office, fol-
lowed by two or three thousand persons, whose shouts,
going up Washington-street, soon augmented the crowd
to many thousands, all calling out " Shame on the
Liquor Law !" " Down with fanatics, compulsory,
and coercive policy." " Eat and drink what you please,
and in what places you please." "No legislation for
the stomach !"

The professor was bound over in 1,000 dole, to appear
and answer the charge of selling liquor without a licence;
the bottle was locked up as the principal witness against
him ; the whole of the officials having had a taste of its
contents before it was locked up, and bound to appear as
witnesses to prosecute ; as they swore this was the
" bottle" from which Mr. Anderson had supplied his
audience with brandy, rum, gin, rind whisky, according
to choice. The professor then left for his hotel, followed
by an immense crowd. In the morning, every available
inch of the police-court was crowded long before the
usual hour of opening. The magistrate arrived, and
took his seat en the bench.

" Anderson's case" was called first, when a long in-
dictment was read, setting forth that "Professor Ander-
son," better known as the " Wizard of the North," bad
been in the habit of Lightly supplying the citizens of
Boston, during the last five weeks, with all kinds of
spirituous liquor without a licence, and against the laws
of the commonwealth of Massachussetts, and was there-
fore liable, for the first offence, in the penalty of 10
dollars fine, and securities for 1,000 dollars ; the second
offence, double the fins, and forfeiture of bonds ; the
third offence, imprisonment in the penitentiary. Vari-
ous witnesses were then called, who stated that they
had been frequently supplied by the professor from his
" bottle,"

One, "a native of the sod," declared that "by St.
Patrick be had never tasted better Potheen' in his life."
Here the magistrate asked "if that was the bottle Pro-
fessor Anderson was using when he was apprehended 1"
"Yes." " Did you drink from it ?" " Yes." " When ?"
"Last night, before it was locked up in the Marshal's
safe." " What did you drink ?" " Rum," said one ;
"brandy," said a second ' • I had "gin," answered a
third ; while a fourth said ho was satisfied with that
" bottle," for it had blistered his hands, which he showe 1
the court was the case. "And is this the identical
bottle ?" " Yes." The magistrate here asked the Mar-
shal "if the bottle had been out of his possession since ?"
The Marshal said the safe had not been opened until the
" bottle " was wanted in court.
This was in evidence for the prosecution. Professor
Anderson. who was undefended, stated that he was not
aware he had acted in opposition to the "Statute," in-
asmuch as he had presented a petition to the aldermen
of the city for a licence to give his performances in the
Melodeon, which they granted on payment of 10 dials.
per week for said licence. Here the professor handed a
receipt for the payment of the above sum, and, said he,
further, " The Bottle " is a part of this entertainment,
duly licensed and paid for. if any clause had been in-
serted by the aldermen at the time they granted the
licence, prohibiting the performance of the " Bottle "
feat, of course he would not have done it ; but as he re-
ceived the licence without qualification, he considered
the performance of the "Bottle" as duly licensed with
the other part of his entertainment.
The magistrates, after a little consitteration, decided
that the professor was duly licensed, and could use his
" Bottle " as he thought proper. This decision was re-
ceived with loud applause.
The:magistrates asked if the "Bottle " was still full ?
"Oh, yes," replied the professor, "you can help your-
' self." No sooner did the magistrate touch the "Bottle"
than he dropped it again, stating that it was "ret 114."
The "Wizard " asked if his honour was satisfied ? fie
answered in the affirmative, and told the professor
" that he did not care how soon he left the court." The
Wizard asked the magistrate to hand him the "Bottle."
The magistrate took his handkerchief from his pocket
for the purpose of taking the bottle by the neck. He
was about to lift it, when, lo ! it vanished, to the utter
astonishment of his honour and all present.—Edinburgh
Paper.

THE ( T BANKERS.-111E,WORIAL
IN FAVOUP. OF MB. BATES.

A strenuous effort is about being made by the friends
of Mr. Bates to procure a cammuta.tion or remission of
his sentence of fourteen years' transportation, by means
of a memorial in his favour, to be addressed to her Ma-
jesty. During Friday and Saturday the memorial was
carried round amongst the creditors of the late firm, the
ground of the applicaticn for mercy being the minor po-
sition occupied by Mr. Bates in connection with the
banking business, and the probability that the securities
which had been criminally applied were so app'ied with-
out his sanction, or even his knowledge. It is also
urged in his favour that no misapplication of monies
entrusted to the care of the army agency in Norfolk-
street, which was more immediately under his personal
supervision, had been proved to have taken place until
after its transference to the banking department, when
it was virtually beyond his control, inasmuch as he can
scarcely be regarded as having been in reality a de facto
partner in the bank at all, Most of the creditors a!-
ready applied to have signed the memorial, and it is
anticipated that the majority of those who have been
victimised by the failure will ultimately do so. On the
whole, the friends of Mr. Bates affect to lie sanguine as
to the result of their application for mercy; but it may
be doubted whether the Government, after the remarks
of Baron Alderst,n, on passing sentence, will be inclined,
so soon, at all events, to accede to the prayer of such a
memorial.
