In the present critical position " Europe the situation OF
Austria matter Of considerable interest for though shs
has ND to the present moment preserved an outward show
of neutrality In the war between Russia and Turkey vet
II is notorious that the sympathes OF her Governmenf arc
entirely with the Gar and ia to be expected that on the
first suitable occasion she will throw OF the mask ana
oppply ion his forces with those of Russia. tits indeed
generally believed that such compact was entered into
between the Emperors at Olmd'z and that Seryis with
Turkish Croatia 10 be the portion Of Austria out of
tie Moslem spells.
II we look at Austria merely in respect to the amount
Of her population shown by statistical returns Francis
oseph is represented governing 100000 of subjects
His military are vast-tRe army numbering at
present upward Of 100000 soldiers which amount can be
increased to 100000 in times Of emergency. The popu
aton and army Of Russia nearly double that OF Austria
so that the together about equal in numbers to the
rcst of Europe This seeming Preponderance Of Austria
ard her ally fully cOunerbanced by the ennity OF the
Ualiars HungariaIs and Poles who are source OF weak
ness rather than of strength TO the Austrian Government
Even the few Germans who are under the rule of he
Austrian Emperor are well detected toward the system,
az the revolution in Vienna showed to the world.
Austria s not unit. The Italian, Hungarian, Polish,
German, Scavonian and other naonalities composing
that empire every painting Tor the opportunity 10
enter into such political combinations as may best suit
them and they only for the present kept in subsection
by sodiery drawn from other parts OF the empire b)hem
ans Poles and Germans being sent to Italy llungarans
and Italians bohemia &C. &c. but on the hrst serious
reverse of the Russian armies on tue Danube or on tne
breaking out of war in which France and England take
part will be the signal for these dsconened and down
trodden populations to arsetOr the ltaGn the Hunga
ran the Pole though dressed in Austrian uniform no
longer can be calculated upon as the yndons OF the
Austrian Emueror the events Of 1915 aud 30 have totally
changed the situations Of the governors and the soldiers
from what existed formerly. The Patriots have been
forced into the ranks Of the army punishment but they
have rot been idle there The sentiments Of the masses
are likewise much improved since 1919 The Protestents
of Austria it is true prosecuted aud tue jews suffer
heayy-in short the Jesuits never more more &C
tive than since that epoch but the parents of the children
whom the priesthood teaches counteract thoroughly all tue
clerical and they represent in their proper light the

children believe IN the stupid fables of priesthood or IN the
dynastic teachings of the hirelng schoolmssters
Many think that the bankrupt state of the Austrian
finances will bring about revolutioa but i should De
remembered that the Hapsburgs have already, without
going 10 ruin often cheated their creditors that they
NAV be able to do again whenever their haouues D9
come too onerous Moreover the rch arls'ocraey tae
clergy and the wealthy bankers aud merchants OF Austria
will make new loans with the Emperor rather than allow
his Government to become bankrupt No. is the people
who will revolt and break the yoke the rich VIII never
ion the revolution til il DO triumphant revolution
brought about merely through the fnane al emoarass
mons of despot, would certainly break down through
similar difficulties.
Mnzzin once said 10 the Germans, 1t is to break
the woke of the POpeyOurs TO hurl the Hapsbugs from
thor throne These two tasks accomplished the rest
will follow" This is very true that these two must Dc
DESTROYED ere any good can be permanently accomplished
for these the only two who keep more than one ms
ton in bondage but in the present condition Of Europe
il is probable that Hungary will first OF the European
populations strike the first blow. which will be the signal
Tor the rest OF suffering humanity The youth nave esh
In their memory the heroic deeds of the heroes OF 1878
and 49, and neither the endeavors of prescra nor the
commands of despoism can elace the remembrance OF
those times. .
Some persons imagine that they carry on revolution
without interfering with the POpish faith They might as
well try to carry without cannon or swords Re
ligon Il Especially in Austria the basis of all political
despom Republican principles are altogether at Yarl
anoe with hGt passive obedience which the Priests incu

without having recourse to war. Vain deluslon DOCKS

eiyoy ill the sword shall first hew road through the op
posing force of police which prevent ts leaving the print

the fostering of superstition This must be met and openly
attacked Those who afraid to hurt the feelings OF
few apstcs ectarans had better stay at homo and spend
their time in prayngthey will only be in the way in the
hour of revolution. .
The Americans generally too absorbed IN business
To think of European matters and to afford much material
ala 10 the European revolution The agitation OF kossuth
and Kinkel produced very little. The millions of the Ed
ropeap popuaon possess great resources as will be seen
so soon az the day Of action shall arrive nevertheless
one single sword thrown in either balance when the scales
are even will give that side the advantage Lot US there
