great length the interesting news brought by
the Sarah Sauds Its length and the late hour
at which It came TO hand prevents our publish
| ing ii to day. We hope to receive in time for
Mondays paper, the later news brought BY the
Acadia. which we shall give in full. The fol-
lowing is synopsis of the Sarah Sands news
for which we are Indebted TO the Louisville
Journal
The people Of Austria and Prussia appear 10
be satisfied with the substantial concessions
they have heretofore gained, and are making
no further efforts against their respective gov
ernments Their satisfaction with what has
been achieved in behalf of political liberty
and right affords strong grounds for suPposing
they will continue to conduct themselves in a
manner which will justify the wisdom Of the
concessions granted to them. The reforms al
ready made should be taken advantage of-the
people should thoroughly adapt themselves to
the new order of things-all that has been
gained should be suffered to mature and pro-
duce legitimate fruits, before any farther steps
are taken towards the establishments Of gov
ernments more republican in their structure
Let the people of these countries so conduct
themselves as to prove that they are worthy to
be intrusted with the difficulties aud perils, as
we'll as the blessings, of self-governnent, and
they will advance surely and safely in the path
of political regeneration.
The Duchy of Schlesing has declared itself
independent of Denmark, and the King Of
Prussia has given his sanction TO the cause OF
the revolu,ionists by sending force of twenty
thousand men TO their assistance. This is an
event utterly without precedent in PrusSian
history Never before did the government OF
that country give its sanction TO the doctrine
which teaches that people have right in
struggle for freedom TO rebel against their king
and declare their independence. The pretext
is that Schlesing is to be annexed to the Ger
manic confederation and thus strengthen that
body of states which Frederick William is am
bilious TO unite under one general government
with himself for Emperor. Whether the pre-
text will be considered by other crowned
heads as an expation of the crime of sanction
ing rebellion for political rights remains to be
seen,
The most important events are the move
ments In relation TO Poland, and the success
of the Lombardo- Venetian revolt against the
Austrian Government. A war, of which i'll
faled Poland is to be the field, seems ineviata-
BILE. The German rulers are in favor of the re-
establishment Of Poland thereby interposing
an intermediate kingdom between Germany and
Russia; while the German people are in favor
of the movement because they despise the op,
preston with which Russia bears down on the
Poles, and sympathise deeply with the opPres-
sed. Nicholas is preparing himself for the
strife, which there is abundant reason TO sup
pose will be most bloody one. The different
states of Germany have long regarded the over
shaaowing form OF Russian despotism with Sc
rious dread, and have feared that some pretext
might arise to bring down on them the rude
and almost innumerabe cohorts of the Car in
war waged for their spoliation. By espous-
ing the cause of Poland, and striking blow for
the Registering Of her name among the en-
pires of the world, they are aware that they
will be SUSTAINED by the sympathies Of all Eu
rope, and, il need be, by the armies Of France,
Switzerland, Belgium, and probably England.
The effort making in favor of the resurrection
of the buried nationality of Poland will pro-
badly involve Europe in the flames of general
war. Russia is most formidable power, and
in the conflict for perpetuation of the internal
outrage committed on Poland toward the close
