IMPORTANT CORRESPONDENCE - Austria and

the correspondence between Mr.. Hulsemann, The
Austrian Charge d'Affaires, and Mr.. Webster,
Secrstery of State, which cannot fail to command
general perusal, Notwithstanding its length. This
letter of the Austrian Charge is one of the mos,
dictatorial and offensive perhaps ever addressed 10
the American Government, denouncing the course
pursued by Gen. Taylor in sending Commissions
to Hungary during the time of the Revolution in
order to obtain reliable information as to the true
state of affairs in that country, and the reply OF
Mr. Webster is most mastery and powerful
document, containing, as Mr.. Mangum remarked
on its reception, national doctrines, American
doctrines, openly and manfully avowed in the
eyes Of all the world"

THE FUGITIVE SLAVE CASE We saw yester-
day letter from Dr. Parker, dated Sunday He
says that the efforts of the abolitionists, through
the counsel Of Henry Long, have been very great
that no stone has been left unturned to defeat the
law-that negro witnesses have been sworn to
prove an alibi, and that they have testified to the
most positive falsehoods in the boldest manner
DIR. Wade's testimony, which would be most con-
elusive, had not been given Saturday. DR.. Parker
states that the Union Committee had waited on
him, and assured him that he need not feel any
uneasness, that the regular operation of the law
would not be interrupted. The chairman of the
committee, Mr.. George Wood, a lawyer of great
ability, had joined Mr.. Western as counsel for the
prosecution. There none of the excitement
mentioned in the papers, says DR.. p. good
many negroes, he says appeared about the place of
trial of the case but every thing went quietly,
and he had been treated in other than res
pectful manner. Offers had been made to buy
Henry; but he had declined them with the appro-
baton of all who desired to see the law tested,
Southern men thought it case proper for a test,
and considered that the failure of the law to
the rights of the Southern claimant in it would be
conclusive Of the utter impossibity OF enforcing it,
lhichmond Dispach, LIST.
| The following is later from the same paper
"A dispatch dated New York, December 3ls
was received yesterday evening from Mr.. Western
counsel for the claimant OF Henry Long. He SAYS
IN 1t that he had removed the case into the United
states Clrcuit Court, then in session. that it was
'hen progressing, and that the slave, Henry Long,
would be probably surrendered during the day."
