THE SUN,
LONDON, TUESDAY, OCT. 1, 1861.

What will the English counsel for Austria say
now. She has let them down much as she did
Lords DERBY and MALMESBURY respecting the
Italian war. They had hoped better things of her
when they found that she had broken the peace, and
etimmenced the conflict without giving them even
telegraphic warning; Lord DERBY was not the
man to " eat his words," so he took the first oppor-
tunity to rate, pretty soundly, the Government
wnich had induced him to utter them. Perhaps
M:. ROEBUCK will follow Loll! DERBY when he
reatls to-day's telegrams; he has had reason enough
im!eed to recant already, but the last act of
SCIIMERLING despotism, in the cause of centralisa-
f.< n will surely make the blood of JOHN ARTHUR
11.0EBUCK, and even of Mr. LEVER, boil with

a dignation.
The Diet has been dismissed, not for (any act of
violence, but for quiet firmness to its first rights
and duties; the Comitats or County Municipalities,
the decentralised assemblies, who conduct the
greater part of Hungarian business, and have been
-like municipalities generally, the soul of liberty in
the country, have expressed their cordial sympathy
with the Diet. The highest ecclesiastical digni-
tary in the country has, though standing on the
verge of the grave, done the same ; all classes
unite ; yet the punishment is the suppression of
the Comitats by military force! Pesth, on account

of its greater importance; is amongst the first deal

with. We were told yesterday that " the building
in which the sittings of the Comitat of Pesth are
heid was occupied last night by the military, and
the members were prevented from assembling by
force. A Lieutenant, with his sword drawn, for-
bads the deputies to enter the building."

That Lieutenant, threatening to sabre any of the
people's representatives who attempted.to perform
their legal duty, was the direct representative of.
Baron SCHMERLING, the Germans of Vienna, and
the HAPSUURG—not too imbecile to be a despot—
who for the hour occupies the throne. The lieu-
tenant, with the sword in his hand, stood at the
door of the county hall, in defiance of law, by
order of Baron ScalveRLING. That sword is the
Baron'( law, constitution, and administration.
politioal quack had devised
The his paper consti-
tution for the good, as he alleges, of all the na-
tionalities under his master's crown. They refuse
to accept it, at least some three fourths of them
do, and chiefly the noble old kingdom of
Hungary
refuses to be drugged to death, and to ac.
cept a kind of Brahmin beatification by ab_

BRAHMA, the Austrian Empire. Hungary thinks

annihilation, and rightly seems so.
lt" one thing ear, be more intolerable than another,
it i.i the sight of one mediocre German, like
Sef[MERE.ING, aided of count(' by REctinERG, and
tutor'ng his stupi,i Sovereign, setting himself up as
the dictator who by his paper decrees is to subvert
a kingdom of a thousand 'years old, and to resist the
will of 11,000,000 of people whom he pretends to
g'vern constitutionally. Like the Southern
traitors in America, he, or the Austrian
Government, have prepared for the present
outrage by disarming the Hungarians. SUMER-
LINGt's Lieutenant might safely stand at the door
