THE PRIVILEGES OF VIENNA.

The Austrian is an absolute monarchy, but
not in our sense of the word, the exercise OF
the imperial power being checked and circum-
scribe,l, in almost every province, by a num-
ber of privileges enjoyed by the subjects, for
the most part Of great antiquity, which the
good sense or good feeling of the government
has hitherto uniformly respected. As King of
Hungary, and Prince of fTransylvania, the En-
peror has to share the legislative and execu-
tive power with the diets Of both these coun-
tries. Every other province but Dalmatia has
its particular assemblies, though the rights of
those provincial assemblies greatly differ, and
extend but very little way. The principal
cities again, have their municipal privileges,
some of them Of great Importance, and among
these Vienna, the capital, has been especially
favored.
With the single exception of the Emperor
Rudolph, who generally lived at Prague,
Vienna has at all times been the residence OF
the heads of the house of Hapsburg and the
mistaken fidelity of its inhabitants has been
rewarded by the steady favor of their sovere-
igns. Most of their municipal privileges date
from signal acts of loyalty and devotion and

brave oldier, greatly surprised at such A ques
tion from such quarter, drew from under h;
cuirass paper, bearing the seal of state an
the emperor's signature. It was q letter or
dering the colonel without delay to got hol
OF all the boats on the Danube he could find
and embark in them with as many of his mel
as could be got together on the spur Of tn,
moment, leaving word for the rest to follow
i'll the shortest possible time. 'You will de-
scend the river to Vienna" the instructions
continued, "you will pass through the town
as silently as possible, and draw up at the
palace. When there you will seek the en-
peror without having yourself announced,
and further act as he shall direct.
Ferdinand, after reading the letter atten-
tlyeiy through, was obliged to allow that tho
hand and seal were so perfectly initiated that
they might well mislead, but denied having
ever issued any orders of the kind, or even
thought of so doing, as the watch kept over
his slightest actions would have put it out of
his power to communicate with his faithful
subjects. His punctilious regard for truth
was well known; and as his mysterious pro
tector never came to light, the chroniclers are
reduced to variety of incongruous suppos-
tions, some ascribing all to an actual interpo
sition of Providence, and others to the jesui,
Lamorain.
That which is certain is, that this was the
turning point of Ferdinand's eventful history.
Hence forward everything went well with him.
Boucquoi overthrew Count Mansfield, Prague
surrendered, and the Bohemians were finally
put down. Germany .streamed with blood.
but the imperial arms still conquered, and
Tilly and Wallenstein entered upon that ca
reer which was destined to crown them with
undying laurels.
Upon his miraculous delverance, Ferdinand. |
having good reason to distrust the citizens, |
kept the Dampierre regiment near him. For
three successive days and nights the men re- |
mained under arms in the palace court, and |
revelled at the emperor's cost, while the Mar
quis de ST. Hilaire was lodged in the emperor's
own apartments. Ever since, the same regi-
ment has preserved the privilege, whenever
its route lies through Vienna, of marching
through the city, with trumpets sounding and
flags displayed, to the imperial palace, where
Il remains in quarters three days and three
nights, and feasts dd hibitum at the emperor's
cost. The colonel dismounts, ascends the
staircase without being announced, knocks
three times, and inquiries the emperor's orders
As there are no more rebels to hang, these arc
limited to an invitation to the palace for three
lays. room of state is assigned him. The
standard of the regiment hangs over his door,
and sentinel stands before it as before that
Of the sovereign.

him to lend him his papers to settle a dispute
and then he was to hold OH to it. The plan
was no sooner concocted than it was carried
into effect At two o'clock in the morning
the papers were procured for the ostensible
purpose of winning bet. The tall man in
sisted upon their going to his house and ex-
amining the papers Frank made no resis-
tance and they retired together to the tall gen
tleman's house. The papers were duly exam

Frank was horror-stricken at the burning
of the papers, but it was not long before his
mind was set straight by taking little more
of the ardent. The tall man had complete
possession of the weak minded mechanics
greatest men imaginable. He was willing to
place his destiny in his hands for good or for
evil he would confde in him under any cir
cumstances. Oh tickle dependence treach-

man could be found weak enough |
to rely for moment upon the word and rep
utation of politician. But such is the fasc'-
nation of the mixture whiskey and politics
that man can be made believe almost any
thing while under their influence.
The clock struck four. the sound was like
a death knell to the heart of the young man.
He thought of Helen the very idea almost
sobered him. He arose from the sofa and en-
ieavored to walk across the floor, but he found
that his weak legs bent under him he made
a heavy lurch and fell upon sofa. The tall
man appeared evidently pleased with seeing
Frank in state of intoxication. Frank NUT

were swallowed up in the excitement. The
houses were illuminated, and the children
just learning TO talk were taught to say the
first word--Bathersllitc The whole state
was clamorous to sound the praise of Blather-
skite, and woe betide the mans political
standing who did not bawl, at the top of his
lungs, Blatherskite. Five hundred children
were named that year hlatherskite, after the
great intended United States Senator. Even
the Bull of the Woods-the immortal Clayton,
was little tainted with the Bletherskitc fe-
yer. The blind man of Kent, the Blackberry,
of Sussex, and even Judge Vinegarface had
to stand bac., to make room for the great i'm

number will not think Of it because they are
at case and seem prosperous; by-and-by,
when the evil day shall come, they will think
they cannot accomplish it because circumstan-
ees are so unpropitious. But let the wise an
ticipate the evil day, and if the unwise will
not, they must abide the consequences. If
one half the business of the country through
out were done on the cash basis, the other
half would commit suicide in the course Of
few years, and trade then glide naturally into

We need not repeat that we are in favor of
credit and the credit system. Let the contrac-

let the banks and capitalists loan the money
to do it with to men of tried integrity and re-
sponsibility. Let men of means lend to those
who legitinately need but do not let mer-

their resources, trust the bulk of them out

the same in both cases Piracy was rob-
