VIENNA, Dec l6, 1S45.
Austrian hardness in the adoption of measures to
promote the general progress of civilization has be-
come quite proverbal among the more advanced
nations of the globe This retarded state is as
cribed to the principles of its government, which
have the tendency to withhold from it's population
all those elements which aid and promote the devel
opment OF mind.
But before we rcproach this veteran government
with such base intention, it should be always recol
lected that the Austrian empire is made up of twelve
Provinces composed of nations differing in speech,
manners, and habits, which were added to the en-
pire at periods when some Of them were yet in u
very low state of civilization.
Austria, below the Ems, is the nucleus round
which these different provinces gradually clustered.
At the early period when the German empire
tablished it's vast boundary line, this province had
the unlucky destination to form the barrier against
the invasion Of the eastern nations. II this prov
ince TO which the present whole empire owes its
name; that was the shield under which the Chris
ton religion could spread, undisturbed, over the
whole continent Of Europe, andtnllow the arts and
sciences to flourish. . .a
IL Austria had been inhabited by a people of one
and the same origin, since its establishment, it would
stand as high in point of civilization as other coun-
tries; but its population, which amounts to about
36, SOC, 900 souls, is composed Of 100000 Ger
mans, 100000 Italians, 5,600,000 Hungarians,
Z, ZOO 900 Walachans, 5000, 900 of Slavic origin,
SOC, 900 Jews, and the rest made up of Turks,
Greeks, Gipsies, &c. This mixture of nations
differs only in speech, but in their national laws
and institutions of selfgovernment, opposing the
more salutary influence Of general laws, and the
interest Of the whole empire, which must necessa-
rily retard the general progress. IN.
Some offs provinces, especially those inhabited
by population Of Teutonic origin, are equal, il
not SUPERIOR to any on the continent; but nations
which have emerged not many centuries ago from the
wild forests Of the Euxine sen, and forming two
thirds Of the whole population-suoh nations cannot
rank with Of mo orto
which the influence Of the Roman laws has never
ceased to aid their present state Of progress, and
must have, upon the whole, an injurious inhu-
ence. ..
Austris had not only TO contend against tho
brawny sons Of Asia, but wars Of long duration
with other powers, and especially those with
France, tended TO PROSTATE II forever But il is
wise policy not to attempt sudden changes in its
politics. not to initiate the dangerous experiments Of
other sanguine nations; bat to advance gradually
with the general progress Of its empire, and make
such changes in It's laws and institutions suit
time and circumstances. Science, arts, and oil
