r0r at the same time with the dissolution of the
Diet there is no need to revert to it, as it never
had practical existence and is now done away
with altogether. Absolutism has been restored in
Austria to all intents and purposes ever since the
4th Of March, lS49.
In Prussia the Chambers met in Febuarysfor
the ratification and revision of the new Charter
proclaimed by the King. They sat for about six
weeks, humble and meek enough in their behavior
toward the Government, yet not quite prepared to
go the lengths the King and his ministers wished
them to do. Therefore as soon as suitable oc-
cason presented itself, they were dissolved.
Thus both Austria and Prussia had for the mo-
ment got nd Of the shackles of parliamentary con-
troll. The Governments concentrated all
mower in themselves and could bring that power to
bear wherever it was wanted Austria upon Hun
gary and Italy, Prussia upon Germany For Prus-
STA, too, was preparing for a campaign by which
Il ORDER was to be restored in the smaller States.
Counter revolution being now paramount in the
two great centers OF action of Germany, in Vienna
and Berlin, there remained only the lesser States
in which the struggle was still undecided, although
the balance there, too was leaning more and more
against the revolutionary interest. These smaller
States, We have said, found common center in
the National Assembly at Frankfort. Now this
so-called National Assembly, although its
ZIONIST spirit had long been evident, so much so
that the very people of Frankfort had risen in arms
against il, vet it, origin Of more less rev.
olutionary nature; il occupied abnormal, reso-
lutionary position in January; its competence had
never been defined, and il had ut last come to the
decision-whicl, however, was never recognized by
the larger States-that its resolutions had the force
of law. Under these circumstances, and when
the onstitutioDaiist- monarchical party saw their
positions tuned by the recovering absoutists, it is

He says it is mistake in diplomacy to over.
look the temper of a people. The American
emigration to Australia, carrying their spirit of
propag andism, and their rifles, along with
them, seems TO be an object of intense terror
to this Journalist, and he already beholds, in
perspective, the golden land torn from the
grasp Of Great Britain. He speaks with great
bitterness of Lord Cathcart, who failed en-
tirely at the Cape of Good Hope, and becom-
ing obnoxious to the inhabitants, threatened TO
withdraw the British army, which would have
been to have discovered the Colony from the
mother country. He says the people were
highly incensed. "An American" we quote
from the Spectator, "has before offered for the
pay of very much smaller force, to extermi-
nate all the blacks within practical range OF
the British settlements; and there is little
doubt that Yankee contractor, with band
of Yankee condottier, could accomplish that
feat" Speaking of the general disadfection in
the British Colonies, the writer says "Monar-

ATTACK ON AN AMERICAN VESSEL
IN THE RIVER CONGO, BY THREE
THOUSAND SAVAGES.

AIIACk ON AN AMEklCAN VESSEL
IN THE RIVER CONGO, BY THREE
THOUSAND SAvAGES.
On the 18th Of last June, the American brig
Mary Adeline, in attempting to pass up the
river Congo, ran ashore al place called
Sharks Point. Her B. NJ. war brigantine Dol
phin, being in sight, she hoisted signals Of dis
tress. The brigan,ine sent her boats, but the
tide having fallen, it was found impossible to
get her off. The next morning, the beach was
covered with natives, (savages,) to the number
of three thousand, all armed, many of them
with muske,s. The Dolphin took up posi-
ton to rake them, but they, nevertheless, fired
a volley of musketry on the brig, and as they
had scaling ladders with them, seemed deter
mined not to lose their prey. The Dolphin
epe ned on them, with shot and shells, and
soon cleared the beach but they only retired
TO the bush. Though the FREELY arrived dur
ing the day, and sent her boats 10 assist,
the brig could not be gotten off that day, and
the natives, during the night, came to the
beach, and again fired on the brig, though
without doing any injury. In the morning,
they again assembled, and seemed to mediate
an attack, but a shot from the Dolphin dis
persed them. 1t was found necessary 10 take
the cargo on board the brigantine, when ION
the 22d) the brig got aloat.
