THE STATE OF EUROPE.
yvux Our Own Correspondent.


Blight as Napoleon's concessions are, they can
not fail TO exert a most powerful influence upon
Rsrope. The right of voting an address to the
Emperor snce year, and the publication of the
discussions Of the Legislature in the Moniteur
and other papers, will not change the servile
character of the Legislative Assembly and Senate
nj Paris. But the fact that even the iron rule
Of the Emperor gives way TO liberal tendencies,
shows conclusyely that reactionary plots in favor
Of Austria are now out Of the question, and that
liberty, little by little may Renter even into
france. Austrias last sham concessions, which

10 demolish them completely. The agita.

pays taxes. and the Administration is at complete

however deem il strange if the Hungarians in their
aistrust ofAustra shall accuse the minister's of plot
ting, as they did u years ago. Now, as then, the
Archbishop of CaTlOvicz the Patriarch of the Serbs,
Raiachich is by Imperial autograph letters,
and invited to convene his cOreEgiOnsts IN Con-
xress; now, az then, Stratimrovich, the military
header Of this race is invited to Vienna and now rs
then, Austrian officials and officers excite the
Croats, the WaIachians and the bOrderers against
Hungary Still times have changed during the last
ten years Raiachich and StratimrOyich have been
zaubbed by the Austrian Government, and the CrOats
know that for their loyalty they were rewarded by
the loss of their municipal institutions, by German
officials by the suppression of their native language,
and by the heaviest taxation The WaIachans
have only changed masters, and the Austrians were
nuch more severe than the Hungarians of
old As to the bOrderers, | mean the military
,s6lonies along the Turkish frontier, they are still
the most wretched and most unhappy population of
Europe Nobody trusts now the word Of Austria.
Dp the 23d, the chief persons OF the eastern half of
Che VOivodina were convened by the Imperial Com
missioner, Count MensdOrf POuilly, at Temesyar,
m order to declare whether they desired 10 keep up
the autonomy of the province, or To be reanneXed
"a Hungary. The Bishop of Csanad. aud with him
all the Roman Catholic priesthood, voted for the
annexation. They We're followed by the German
Mayor of Temesyar who, together with all the
aldermen and mayors of the towns of the east
Urn VoiyOdina, gave their adhesion To the
Bishop. At last, the nch prOprietors of
Serb and Rumain origin have also east their
votes for annexation, though ON condition that their
language and creed should be respected. Not one
man wished u preserve the autonomy OF the
province, well aware that the union with Hun
gary alone will rid them of German officials of
Austrian red tape, of an nsOlent Imperial police,
aud of arbitrary dcpOrtatiOns to Bohemian tOrtresscs
Count MensdOrG proceeds now to the western por-
tiOn of the VOyOdna, there to inquire INTO the
wishes and desires of the population, and we 10
not doubt that their vote Will be as unanimous as
that Of their eastern brOthreTs. We have yet no
news from Agran, where, on the same day, the
Eroats were 10 meet Ia Convention under the chair.

Still We know, from the spirit OF the newspapers,
that the CrOats TOO, have rcpcuted of their deusOn

wish now Ia be- united 10 Hungary aud not to depend
upon the Ministry at Vienna. The town OF Fiume,
on the Adriatic has already declared her wish TO be

Hungary again all the counties camOr Tor the
recognition of the laws OF S4- and for re0rganiza-

In Italy things remain unchanged Garta still
holds out and the organization Ot a Southern army
has not yet begun. Sii the talk about the sale Of
Yeseta is now less loud Austria continues To send
arms, ammunition, and soldiers, to the Po and the
Mincio; the iOrtifcatOns are extended. Pcschers
has becomes fortress first rank; BOrgO Forte aud
pther points on the frontier have been fortified with
trenches and defcn-es; Venice, bristles with can

Die, horses are bought, cannon cast, basiions
built, and an army Of 3OO,0 men paid in cash,
sor not even Austrian despotisn il able to cOerce

eiated paper money. AT Vienna, indeed they have
INSIDE an emission of ten-cent notes 10 the extent Of
$4,000, 900, without the authority of the Council
of the Empire, which alone according to the
Diploma of October the 20th, has the right to au-
ihorize any new emission of paper money. This
tact shows both the financial stress and the political
corruption Of the Government. Nothing short of u
miracle eau save the Empire from disruption in
Spring.
