ra;nst Russia and France. Nothing could
be more improbable. Russia could ami
b,late Prussia in a single campaign; the
latter has no natural allies; she has grown
nm out of tho excise Of other States; and
her downfall would be witnessed without
any one sympathising in her fate.-Aus-
tria would be glad to round her empire
with Bosnia Servia; but she would be
weaker then, with Russia as a neighbor,
than she is at present. The Emperor Nj
cholas, with the councils Of old Catherine
around him, knows how the land lies; he
Will make nice of no means that shall give
him the Bosphorus, Constantinople, and
the great keep oil, the Mediterranean; he
will leave his allies, whoever they may be,
TO pick and choose for the remainder; ana
hence the fact, that the course OF his poll
cy will excite less jealousy with any other
power than with England. There Is one
hope which we may entertain; VIZ. that
Russia will fail to conciliate Austria. The
Emperor Francis is wary and cold blood
ed politician; he knows that with the
Turks as his neighbors, he is safe; he re-
auires no military claim against them; he
is Jealous of all the three principal remain
ing powers that skirt his empire; and he
knows his present strength in relation
thereto IL is as remarkable as IT IS true,
that for prompt, immediate and effective
service, with Land Force, Austria is the
most powerful country in the world. She
can send into the field, at almost any time,

The Americans, within late years, have
made an astonishing progress in almost eve.
ry art: but more particularly in the mechani-
cal ones. They have in these branches reach
cd high perfection, which is TO bo attrbu-

European artists, who are daily establishing

selves, who take delight in encouraging their
various manufactures, but only patroniZe that
which is good; tho surest way of arriving at
perfection. To give an instance Of their pro.
grcss in the mechanical arts, we will notice,
among others that Of making musical instru-
mcnts, such as Pianos, Organs, nc We have
had an opportunity of seeing various speci-
mems made in different parts Of the United
States, but have more particularly admired
those of Mr.. f.. ~ ScHERk, of Philadelphia,
who, by connoisseurs, is recognized as the
best manufacturer in that country. II must
be acknowledged that these pianos would do
credit to the most distinguished artists of En-.

rous. We have learned with pleasure, that
this artist, after having made the tour of Eu-
rope, has-in a great measure formed his taste
in this city, the centre of arts and sciences
But TO return 10 our subject, il is not alone in
this branch that tho Americans distinguish
themselves; il rs, rs we observed above, in al.
most all the mechanical arts--and we have no
doubt whatever, that their tasic for the soicn-
oes and fine arts will increase in the same
proportion, and soon place them upon level
with the most polished nations of Europe.
