The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1859-07-13


The Vienna correspondent of the London Times,
writing June 22d, says:
''Matters have been so terribly mismanaged in
Austria during the last ten years that it will be al
most mi iraculous if the empire escapes dissolution
In all the provinces very great discomfort prevails,
and there is to fear that there will be serious
disturbances in some of them if a change is not
speedily made in the system of government. The
Minister of the Interior still clings to the idea that
the principle of strict Capitalization NAV be main
tanned, but the Magyars laugh him to scorn, and
openly declare that the present state of things
not last.
'sThe feeling in Croatia and SIavonia is by no
means good and it will probably become worse
now that Count Jellachch is dead. The gallant
Ban some years ago told me that NJ. Won Bach 'has
succeeded in transforming Jealous patriots into
discontented and sullen taxpayers At such a mo.
ment the present when the very existence of the
empire is at stake, the Jesuits, who are behind the
Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs, have induced
him to give offence to the Ruthenes, a highly Iowa
Russo-Siavonic race living ia Gacia. The Ruth
enes, who number about 200, 900 souls, belong tc
the United Greek Church, and recognise the Pope
as their spiritual pastor and master. Their priests
| however, address their Maker in the Slavonic in
stead of the Latin language, and take unto them
selves wlves and consequently are treated as schls
MATES by the Jesuts. These latter not long since
persuaded Count Leo Thun to order the Ruthene:
to substitute the Polish Latin for the Cyrillc let
ters, and the consequence of such uncalledfor anC
unwise interference was, that the Russo-GaIicians
| complained TO the government oil the CONDUCT oil
certain high employees, who were surreptitiously
endeavorng to rob them of their inherited trea
sure, the Cyrilc character and with it of the Ian
guage and religion which had been theirs for more
than 1000 years repeat that if things long re
main they now are, Austria must necessarily &C
to pieces. The catastrophe may be, and probably
will be avoided, as the Emperor is said to hav,
heard more truth since he has been in Italy than h
ever did before. 1t has struck me during the las
day or two that great depression prevails in gov
ernmental circles, and it is not improbable tina
some of the civil Gyulais begin to think their day
are numbered.
| ''Some distressing events have occurred here dul
ing the last forty.eight hours. The day before ye
terday ten or twelve nobiG (nobes) were brougt
here from Venice, and it is understood that the
were the authors of the eete at Venice on the lat
inst. In the evening OF the 22d they were tscorte
by soldiers to the terminus of the Northern Raj
road, and it is believed they are to be confined
the fortress of Theresienstadt, in Bohemia. Almo
all the prisoners were young men of gentleman
appearance, and their dress led the public to col
clude that they had been arrested while at Dime
or evening party. One ofthe unfortunate men, VIII
was advanced in years, was believed to be the e'
Podesta of Venice. As each walked in tn
middle of square formed by four soldiers the Pre-
cession was piteous to behold, and the sight oil
appeared to move the bystanders greatly l..
