Austrian diplomacy has now two great objects In

supremacy in Germany and in Italy by means Oh
customs unions. Prussia's leadership in Germany

Baron Bruck is DOW taking tie wind out of her
sails by ssslmisting the Austrian tariff TO the
German one He u fully confident that in lS6O
re Austrian Empire will be able to enter into the
Z.,lyelep and tate its leadership. The same thing
Is Attempted in Italy. The purpose is thus to
court the spirit Of national unity by uniting the
different States of the Peninsula IN a Commercial
league. which may soon be followed by political
ouSsi.tederation to the ruin of Sardinia. The skill

fcien,y known. and these two objects may be
aitsiued within the next few years.

LONDON, Friday, March -, 1857.
In the year 1896 Pbilheenism was a. ITS night
in l. ndop. and public opinion favored the Greeks
in their struggle against the Turks But tn Lead,
ers OF the movement in England were not satshed
with such theoretical enthusiasm AS In loiy
about Hungary, they were not abstract lovers ol
freedom they belonged to the utilitarian school OF
the late Mr.. Rentham ard tried to turn the eur
l.r..,. IN "a
sjyely for Greece, though by some curious colnci-
deuce of circumstances, their own pockets were
flled NJ the same time. According to the Annual
Register lS26. page 373, and to The London I'meS
Of the 2sih October of the same year, the second
lest friend of Greece subscribed 10 the Greek loan
Ia the amount of S25, 0C0 at fifty nine per cent.
The scrip. however found little favor at the Ex-
chnnse and soon fell to lover quotations The
second best friend grew alarmed, and, unable TO
| II ret his engagement, tried to induce @essrs Or
ardo & Luriotti TO release him from his subscrip-
ton ON account of his great services 10 the urech
cause. The best friend OF Greece supPo'teu
this rot very business-like propositi0n and tle
| Greek bankers found it expedlent to comply
with the WISH and formally to release their secood
| best friend from his engagement But 10 the
| Greek cause soon wore a more favorable aspect,
| and The scrip rose to 60 at the Exchange Inc
second best friend OF Greece now insisted upon us
ORIGINAL subscription and the return OF his scrip oy
| the commissioners; and, being shown his release,
| signed bv himself he stated that he had made
mistake and on account of his services to Greece,
he reouested the canoeing OF the release. This
| affair was compromised by Messrs. Orlando ~
Iu,io,ti and the second best friend OF Greece got

may throw some light upon the high principles by
which he used to be guided. The affair made great
