THE ROYAL INTERVIEW AT WEIMA.R,

A few days ago we gave extracts from articles
published by the Zeit of Berlin and the Austrian
Gazette on the subject of the interview at Weimar.
Both journals congratulated themselves on the
meeting of the Emperors, but the Zeit insinuated
that the Cabinet of Vienna felt the necessity of re-
pairing its errors. The Austrian Gazette appears
to have been much annoyed at that assertion, and
in a fresh article, entitled " Anvil or hammer,"
reproaches Prussia with not having been represented
either at Stuttgard or at Weimar. It says :

" The absence of Prussia was neither remarked by
France nor Russia, but it has been by Austria and by
Germany, which has a right to look up to Prussia. A
great question, not only European, but, by the effects
it may produce, really German, is shortly to receive a
solution—we allude to the definitive organisation of the
Danubian principalities. In that question, Austria
presents herself nearly alone with the suzerain power,
whose interests are here perfectly identical with those
of Germany. The Germanic Confederation has, besides,
admitted that it is interested in the matter, and now the
second great German power declares that Prussia has
no interest at stake on the Lower Danube. It hence
follows that in the case in question Germany has referred
the matter entirely to Austria, who, on her part, only
takes counsel from herself."

The Gazette adds that a State can neither be strong
nor powerful when it proclaims its neutrality on all
questions. " The reign of 1,000 years (the mil-
lennium), whenever it commences, may," it says,
"modify' these conditions, but every State which
in waiting for this reign does not perform the part
of the hammer will be reduced to that of the anvil."
All this relates to the neutral attitude assumed by
Prussia in the question of the principalities, in
which the Cabinet of Berlin refused to support the
interest of Austria as a Germanic matter.
