Austria Is going 70 rack and ruin, and shrinks from
the rex OF figuring personally in history the lat
OF TIE Hapsburgs. On the other hand. being an OBJ
sraie ard headed young man. be win not con-
sent to make the important concessions TO the different
psrts OF his empire, and especially TO Hungary, by
which alone the dangers now impending over Austria
could, perhaps, for q time be sverted. There yet
another reason, and that il, freed from the Of
Government, his Majesty eoelG devote himself with
ardor 10 The pursuits which form TIE passion Of his
fe and the Object Of his highest ambtion-ihe slangh-
ter of game and the Tailoring of the army.
The venerable Greek Bishop Of MunkAcs whose re-
cen; mysterious disappearance produced a profound
sensation in tie country has returned to his diocesan
city. Of course, he has been questioned with the
greatest curiosity TO where be has been confined,
aud what the assigned for his arrest; but
on these points be does not vouchsae any plantation
The fact IL, probably that the Austrian authorities
who carried him of ard eooped him up, have posi-
lively prohibited him from speaking word about the
matter; and as be is very old man. and in very deli
consequences should befall him. Strange il may
seem in English eyes, it IS thing in Austria,
and especially IN Hungary, for the Government TO
wbIsk of people 70 forresses to keep them there for
periods more less long, and then to release them
condrion OF their not saying word on the subject OF
their srrest detention. But though the poor Bishop
Is silent, people know well that be could have
been arrested for no other reason than that he is
patriot end gym ahzes with the nation al movement;
they feel that his imprisonment must have been
severe, and his treatment harsh, since his health
is deplorable, and he appears to be laboring under
profound terror. The que tion Is asked: Why has
the Yiennese Cabinet, after daring to outrage the
country by auestipg him, set him at liberty The
answer is not difficult 10 find. told You in recent
letter that the Bishops hock he'd sent deputation to
the Emperor Of Russia to mplore HIS Majesty, the
head Of the Greek religion, to his influence to OBJ
tain the release of the preate at least to discover
BIS Whereabouts II is the fear Of seeing the Car
eoup,y With the prayer Of the deputation which has
caused the yienne=e Cabinet to give liberty 70 the
Bishop. The fact is, that the sympathy which the
Greeks in different parts Of the Austrian empire mani
fest for Russia has long caused serious uneasness o
tie Yienuese Cabinet; and nothing, Of course, would
augment that sympathy more than for the Russian
Car to intervene on behalf of Greek Bishop sub
ieeted to cruel wrong and oppression. That Cabinet
therefore in this case as in others which have Oc
cured before has fastened to any preext for
Russian me idling.
Another demonstration has been made against Aus
tra at KlauseDhurg, in Pennsylvania The policy Of
that Power has always been TO weaken Hungary by
stirring up strife between the different naonaites
established in her territory; and in lSis-i9 she
ceeded but too well in exciting the Saxons Of Transyl
vaDs to hostility against their parent State. But these
people have long since the Of their ways,
and have become heartily reconeiled to the rest OF
Hungary. Well, they had some local occasion,
grand banquet at Klausenburg the other day, and
their foremost delivered speeches, the burden of
which was eulogism Of the Hungarian nation, regret
that the SaAODs had ever allowed themselves TO be led
into hostility it, and the promise that henceforth they
will act in all things members Of the great Hunga-
rian people Toass in accordance with the speeches
were drunk with enthusiasm.
