BOHEMIA.

PRAGUE, MAY 14.—The Emperor of Russia is
expected at Prague. His Majesty will probably ar-
rive there on the 19th, and remain there till the 22d ;
after which he will set out for the army.
A letter from Kalisch to the same effect says :
The Emperor of Russia, who was expected on the
10th, will not arrive till the 16th at the camp of
Lovitsch, and grand fetes will take place in honour
of his presence. The Czar will here receive his
august hosts. The object of the Emperor is to inspect
the military at Kirchendorf.—Bohemian Gazette.

RUSSIA.

The St. Petersburgh Journal, of the 11th, has the
following article on the manifesto of the Emperor on
the intervention of Russian troops on behalf of
Austria :
" We publish to-day a new manifesto, which the Em-
peror has just addressed to his people on the occasion
of the entrance of our troops into Gallicia. The
principles and motives of this important measure are
too clearly indicated to render it necessary to
develope them here at any length. The intervention
is based on two principal reasons ; the moral duty
imposed on us by the formal demand of a Cabinet with
which we are united by the engagements and transac-
tions of an old alliance; the positive right which we de-
rive from the necessity of providing on this occasion for
our own defence. Whoever may take the pains of cast-
ing an eye over the whole of oar geographical situation,
and upon the state of the populations along the Carper-
thian Mountains and the Danube, will find it evident
that the Austrian monarchy cannot be, on this side,
wronged, either in its possessions or political power, with-
out creating a violent perturbation in our relations with
neighbouring Powers and in our most essential interests.
These interests the breaking out of the Hungarian insur-
rection ha) put at stake. But within a short time, and by a
concurrence of circumstances derived from the obligation
accidentally imposed upon her, Austria has found herself
called upon to watch over the security of her territory at
i several points at once. This insurrection has suddenly be-
come more formidably developed, and the nature and ten-
dency of whioh wo own no longer mistake. From the borders
of the Theis it has advanced rapidly to the shores of the
Danube. Upper Hungary and Transylvania are al-
ready in its possession. With the focus of its action if
has proportionably increased the circle of its revolu•
tionary influence. The movement is no longer purely
Hungarian; it has become half Polish. It serves as the
basis of an insurrection much more extended, much more
ambitious, which aspires to raise all the countries
of old Poland, and to revive for us the disasters and the
calamities of 1831. This new spirit manifested itself
from the day when the Magyar camp became the ren-
desirous of the remnants of the Polish emigration, of
those soldiers of anarchy which are to be found in all
countries, in the service of all revolts, at the bottom of
all conspiracies which have for their object to over-
throw the fundamental principles of society, and to
substitute in their place the sanguinary dreams of the
most hideous demagogy. More than 20,000 indivi-
duals belonging to this category are at this moment enrol-
led under the standards of the Hungarian army. They
form regiments and entire organised corps. It is to their
chiefs, and particularly to Bem and to Dembinski, that
principally belong the conception of their plans of action
and the direction of the warlike operations. Their projects
against us are no longer conoesled; they are openly de-
clared. It is to carry the theatre of insurrection into Gali-
cia, and eventually into our Polish provinces. ,Their plots
have already taken root in Gallicia and at Cracow. On the
side of Transylvania they tend to paralyse, by exciting
and encouraging the discontented Moldo.-Wallachians,
the efforts which we are making in concert with Turkey
to maintain calm in those principalities. In a word, they
keep up a permanent state of agitation along the vast line
of our frontiers. Such a state of excitement cannot be
prolonged without endangering our situation. It calls
for the most prompt and energetic measures on our part.
It is, without doubt, to be regretted that Russia could
not indefinitely maintain the passive attitude which she
adopted in the origin of the European crisis. For more
than an entire year she has shown no desire, manifested
no impatience to engage precipitately in the struggle of
the two principles of moral order and anarchy which
continues to convulse society in Europe. As long as the
social tempest raged at a distance, Russia remained calm
and motionless, in presence of the agitation of the
world. She saw war lighted up, institutions falling,
and the forms of government changing, without departs
ing from the neutrality, which she had imposed upon
herself. But the hour in which it might be necessary
to act had not escaped the foresight of the Imperial
Government; and, if it at length departs, in spite of it-
self, from the expectant policy which it had maintained,
it is not the less faithful to the spirit of its former de-
clarations. In fact, in announcing, on the occasion of
the manifesto of the 14th March last, that it would
scrupulously abstain from any intervention in the do-
mestic affairs of foreign countries, and that it would
leave each free to modify, according to its own views, its
internal constitution, it nevertheless took care to reserve
to itself beforehand an entire liberty of action in the
event of the revolutions of foreign states placing its own
security in danger, or of the territorial equilibrium esta-
blished by treaties on its frontiers should incur the risk
of being deranged or modified, to the prejudice of Russia.
Now that our security is somewhat menaced by what
ii going on or preparing in Hungary, which appears
evident from the efforts and avowed projects of the
insurgents themselves, and that any attempt, which
even for a time should on this side be made by a
revolutionary Government on the integrity and
unity of the Austrian Monarchy would be an
attack upon the state of possession, which, in
accord with the spirit of treaties, the Emperor
regards as necessary to the balance of power in Europe,
as also for the repose of his own states, the Imperial
Government is bound to provide against the eventuality
which it had foreseen, and the present situation is

which keeps in a state of ferment, all the nationalities in
