Germany
The affairs of Germany are daily becoming more
critical and complicated. The conduct Of tie i'm
periaI agents. after the downfall Of Vienna, hos been
of character so nhuman and atrocious as to arouse
from its depths the anger of the whole German
people. Amid the general massacre that followed
the conquest of the devoted city, Prince Wndisch-
gratz distinguished himself and the cause of his
imperial master by the execution of Robert Blume,
one Of the delegates from Saxony to the Central
Government at Frankfort. When the news Of this
reached Dresden, the Assembly of Saxony adopted
unanimously the following resolutions:
Il To invite the Government to demand of the Minister
OF ax9n an exact account OF his conduct in the

the Government Of Saxony the recall Of the Saxon
Minister from the Austrian Court. At popular
meeting held in the same town resolutions were

The crowd after this proceeded to the house of
the Austrian Consul, and made an attack upon it,
breaking the windows, tearing down the arms and
committing other mischief.
Even the National Assembly at Frankfort has
taken the matter up, and adopted unanimously the
following resolution
The National Assembly protesting before all Germany,
against the and execution of the representative Robt
Blume which have taken place in contempt OF the imperial
st of the Empire take the most energetic in
order 20 judge and punish the persons who have been con-
cerned directly indirectly in his arrest and execution
These proceedings indicate the feeling which is
at present aroused throughout Germany, and it is
not likely that it will be speedily allayed. The
death of BIume may be made more useful than it
is likely that his life could have been; it will
arouse his countrymen, not TO shout and hurrah for
liberty, as Mr.. Kendall complains that the demo
Gratis of Berlin did, but to take up arms with the
stern resolve to right themselves now and forever
against the combination of imperial and kingly
tyranny.
The rulers of Austria may find that the defeat of
the Viennese was but the beginning of the war of
liberation. With Hungary in arms, and the spirit
Of Germany united against the Imperialists, there
is still hope that the right may be successfully
indicated and the Austrian people be enabled to
break the power of the most cruel and CALLING
tyranny to be found any where on the face of the
earth out Of Russia or Ireland-the tyranny Of i'm
beeility set in motion by fear.
