The Queen proceeded to-day, at one o'clock, in
royal state, from Buckingham Palace, in st. James
Park, to prorogue Parliament. was waiting to
roe her pass, in good situation-she looked well,
and the pageanry looked well-she is evidently very
popular. There is q vast difference between her
portraits and herself; the former represent all that
is beautiful in woman, but not so the reality-it Is
a plain, homely, yet noble, proud bearing woman
she arrived at the House Of Lords and was re-
eeived with all the gorgeous ceremony and profound
reverence paid Majesty in this country, and the
Commons were sent for. Here new scene was
presented Formerly, they used to rush into the
House of Lords pellmell, all in jolly scramble
head over heels, knocking each other down, tumb-
ling over one another, causing good deal OF fun
and laughter, to royalty and all-Sut now they
come in lines OF four in line, tolsrably quiet and
decent. and then the ceremony proceeded. AS the
English are remarkably fond of all such pageantry
and exhibitions of royalty, and The journals will be
full of it ell to- morrow, ferbear
Mr.. Gladstone's pamphlet on the prisoners at
False, to which | referred in my last, is the most
exciting publication of the day, in the numerous
list of ephemera. Lord Palmerston, the ready
aIswerer of questions in the House, has signiied
the intention Of the government to do nothing in
the matter.
There seems to be a general opinion, in well
informed circles here, that Galway will never do
tor packet station. If the shpmasters' celebrated
axiom, that every trans shipment is loss" be a
true saying, it would appear to settle the matter,
Oh the score of convenience and profit. If Galway
was where Cape Clear is, that would De the very
station.
The Diet at Frankfort, under its new imperial
organization, is proceeding quietly aud surely in
aiirming its true character and concentrating its
power Ii is or is to be, new power in the world,
which may be called Washington city to the
monarchies OF Europe, as Washington city is the
free centre Of the free States OF America. hat
cabinet whichever it may be, which gets the upper
hand at Frankfort, viii be the real power whl,h
rules over Germany and all its princes and poten-
tates A regular LIBERALIZATION OF kings and
empires is being formed The plan w!l be to join
with this federal power, which has its seat at
Frankfort, other powers, which did not originally
form a part Of the Germanc Confederation, and 80,
by degrees, to bring all the States and Kingdoms
Of Europe into the vortex, and TO the dict a
ton OF toe confederate monarchs at Frankfort. IL
is highly important that this new concentration
of uonarchical power this federalz alton of despots
now forming, should be known and understood
by statesmen in the most distant parts, for it will
be power exercising incalculable influences over
Europe and its destiny for the next quarter OF CEN
tury. The junction of other States and kingdoms
extra Germanic, is feebly opposed, with distant
gentle diplomatic treathings, by England and
France but this opposition, based as II Is pretend
cd, upon maintaining the Status quo settled at the
treaty Of Vienna, is a mere show and will be
doubtless as it is intended to be- Intellectual, and,
when once Prussian Poland, as il is now proposed,
shall be joined in membership, the next step will be
TO Join other extre-Germanic kingdoms, and then
at last-Russa thus, gradually all the despots OF
the world viii be united in one solid bundle, ana
central power Of dsspotsm will be created infusing
its spirit and directing its power into all States and
kingdoms, preventing any one single ruler IRON
venting peo pie from having any power or any b Ipe
in any country. What, may be done by suca
power, welded at the will Of the prime despot OF
all debating the strict manten ance OF an iron des-
potism to ali governments in the world, no human
foresgh ht can predict. Yet it seems as if 1t were
a step towards the accompl snment OF the destiny
Of the world as If 1t were intended that tyranny
and msrule should prevail for season aad crush
mankind der it's cruel fapgs, before the final re-
action comes, when the people shall have their swn,
and sit in peace under their own vine and
Gg tree. Already this great federal pow
has it's federal army, and oy accounts lately re-
ceived, IL is about to establish a federal police,
which sha ferret out all democrats in all countries,
and wach over the breathings Of The sentiments OF
in ell States independent OF the police and au-
thority Of the kingdom and nation to which they
belong.
By all this 1t will now be perceived and under
stood that the o-oalled Diet OF Frankfort is total
ly different thing from what its name implies, and
from what originally it was; that in fact new cen
trsl power is forming In Europe, which must swA.
low up other powers gradually in It's vortex, and
that more correct idea win be given Of this pow
sr by calling il what IL really is-the Federal Go
yernment Of ofConfedersted Kings.
