The following Is a hst Ut sumo of the most illus
tr'ous and snguished personages who are now
al Warsaw, on n visit 10 the Emperor and Empress
OF Russia. There ARE the Emperor of Austria, at
tended by Prince Schwarzenberg, Count q iinne,
snd other military and cvi, functionaries; the
Crown Pnnee and Prncrss Grand Duchess Olga,
daughter Of the Emperor) Of Wurtemberg, Prince
Frederick Of the Netherlands and his consort (sls-
ter Of the Empress), the Grand Dukes Michael and
Nicholas (sons ct the Emoerorl, Prince Frederick
OF Heese Cnssel (son-i law 10 the Emperor),
wldower of the Grand Duchess AIexandrina, the
Duke Christian of Holsien Glucksburg, on a mis-
sion fIom The Court of Denmark, in company with
Count Plessen, Count and Countess Brandenburg,
the former a morganatic unce Of the Empress,
and the latter mo.t accomplished and amiable

Grand parades and festivals take place daily. On
the 2lsi, the Polish mobility gave a grand ball,
under the direction Of their marshal, TO which all
the nobtes~ of the country and the elite of Warsaw
were invited This fcts was given IN honor OF the
nifty years service of Prince Paskiewuch. who
opened the ball by polosaise with the Grand
Duchess Olga Meanume business is not ne
elected. Count BraDdenburg has had repeat
ed interviews with Count Nesselroae and M.
de Meyendorf, and as Prince Schwarzenberg
arrived upon the 18th, it is hoped that the
mediation Of Russia may produce an approach
ment between the parties, and avert those
calamiues which appear so imminent and which
the liberal" party in Germany are iahoring
night and day with reckless and cynic effort to
entail upon their country. Ii is possible that

future period, but an immense step will be gained,
II, through the prudence and energy of the Emperor
ct huesd, the two burning questions of Electoral
Hesse and SchIeswig Holstein can be set aside
without causing an immediate explosion. Mighty
evils have been averted by gaining time, and
although the many questions at issue must remain
undetermined so long as Austria and Prussia Car
not agree as TO the mode of reconstructing the
confederation, il is nevertheless of immense i'm
poTtance to the interest of both powers that all
collateral causes for luminosity should be set aside
by mutual accord 1t has, we believe, been the
constant desire and prudent advice of Russia that
all such questions should be treated sophisticated
as political hors d'Guves, in the same manner
the irritating and critical question of federal proper
ty has been treated If we are rightly informed,
the advice will prevail, and the storm now gather
ing so thickly around be thereby averted His
Royal Highness Prince Charles of Prussia reached
Warsaw short time after the Emperor OF Austria,
whom he had accompanied across the Prussian
territory as far as Mysiowitz.
Ii is positively stated, FAYE the Ausbvg scfte,
that the Russian court viii pass the winter at War
say. The motive for tins is said to be the twenty
fifth anniversary of the accession OF the Emperor
Nicholas, which il is not wished to celebrate at St.
Petersburg, because, according to the Russian
laws, after the twenty fifth year of reign. the Sc
nate must cease its functions, and the Emperor
cannot be present at that time. Since Peter the
Great, no Russian sovereign has occupied the
throne for twenty-five years.
The Wttusr Zeitnng publishes the new consti-
tutons for the duchy Of the Buckowina, for the
kinedom OF Gallicia and Landomeria, the duchies
ct Auschoty and Gator, and the grand duchy of
CIacow. The electoral districts are divided into
four circuits. The electoral privilege is extended
10 every burgher OF the Austrian empire who has
httains his majority, Is in the full employment Of
civic and political liberties, and pays direct taxes
either for landed or freehold property, for trade,
Tor an income arising from ecclesiastical or secular
employment. The Polish and Ruhnian inhabi-
tents, as well as all other races living in these
counties, entitled TO equal privileges and each
race has an inviolable right To the security and
maintenance Of their nationality and language.
The Foreign Policy OF the Chinese
We have received copies OF the hrst and second
numbers dated August Sd and 10 h) Of a new and
apparently well conducted newspaper; published at
Sbspghae, under the title Of the North China
Herald One of the articles from this source il not
only interesting. but, at the same time, highly inn
poriant, as connected with the existing relations
bet ween China and this country.
Our readers are alrsady aware that the Emperor
who governed China during the late war, has re-
Gently died; and that the throne ID now occupied
by his son, who is, we believe, young man and
one or two circumst ances have recently occurred,
which seem 10 inc cate change ia the foreign po-
iicy OF the government. There cannot be doubt
that the defeats and losses that were inflicted on
the Chinese during the war, and the humistoa
10 which the government was eventually compelled
to submit, must have ranked deeply in the minds
of Chinese statesmen and II was to be ex-
rected that If favorable opportunity presented
itself fer wiping out the dissrace which their
arms had sustained, IL would be eagerly seized.
The late Emperor, however, and the mandsrins
Z IN whom be placed conhde nee, had probably con-
WINGED tbemfelv.s that any resort on their part to
hcstilities with England, would end only IN fresh
defeats and disasters and mig possibly be fraught
with danger 10 the reigning dynasty. Ii IL by no
means certain, however, that the same opinions
would be entertained by the young Emperor who
has succeeded TO the throne. change OF ruler
often gives rise 70 change OF policy; and we have
now some reason for believing that the Emperor
has recalled TO the councils Of the state some OF
tbose individuals whose advice led TO the late war;
ana who had consequently been sent into species
VI exile in distant provinces OF the empire. There
have also been strong indications Of an unfdendy
feeling 70 foreigners, a. Canton and is generally
understood that the recent mission 10 the mouth OF
the nser Peiho, with a letter COMMUNICATING the
Emperor on his stion, was received with great
TI6eness and mcvIlity. Under these circumstsnces
