nearer to an outbreak than IN Hungary. The
Diet has been dissolved for its unanimous
opposition 10 the Government The highest
administrative Board, the Lien tenancy which
ans gers to the Homo Department of other
countries, composed OF course Of nominees of
| the Crown, has solemnly protested against
the illegalities of the Vienna Government;
| the Prihate, according to rank the highest
dignitary of the realm, declares that he can
not, with all his loyalty toward the person
| Of the sovereign, give his moral assistance
| to the levy of couscripts because it has not
! been voted by the Diet, and Is, therefore, IL
| legal; the country and municipalities, which,
| after the dissolution Of the Diet, Endorsed the
protestations of the assembled Representa-
| tives of the country, have been dissolved,
| and all others have been forbidden to hold
public meetings; the taxes, refused by the
population, are levied by military execution;
| the officers of the army have liberated by
| force prisoners detained by the municipali-
| ties, and, seeking quarrels with civilians,
| bully and ill-treat all who by chance dis
please them; the Town Clerk of Pesth is
| tried for treason on accout of an address
| sent by the town to the Emperor. aud since
| the ordinary courts of justice would acquit
| those who on paltry pretensiOns are indicted
| for treason, the political trials are transfer
red to court-martials. Under such circum-
stances, all the most loyal subjects of Fran
| cis Joseph who hold Office under him are ten
4 dering their designations.
Baron Nay, the Chancellor, Blessrs. Szogy-
enyi and Zsedenyi, Mr.. Majlath, Count APP
ponyi, Count Karoly, have already retired
| into private life; score of Lord Lieuten-
ants are about to follow their example. and
| the Vienna Ministers have no chance Of find
| ing any man who has still reputation TO
| lose to accept any Office from their hands.
For the moment the Administration is at q
complete standstill; nothing but the common
sense of the people prevents anarchy; in
! few weeks the country viii fall into the
hands of adventurous and loafng foreigners
of the same kind as those officials of Baron
Bach, who just twelve months ago were ex-
PEELED from Hungary by the indignation of
| the people.
Pennsylvania things look still gloomier.
The Chancellor Baron kemeny has resigned
on refusing to countersign an order in Coun-
Gil by which the Electoral law Of the cOun-
| try was altered by the absolute will Of the
sovereign without the concurrence Of the
electors tie Gubernium or Home Office pro-
tested against the same order and refused to
! publish it. and was accordingly dissolved.
The Vienna Ministers encourage the ami
| mostly eVinced by the illiterate Roumain
pesans against the educated classes, both
Saxon and Hungarian, agrarian Outrages are
Winked at and even encouraged By the mill
| tary authorities the country is deeply con-
vuised by the agitation on both sides and
Prince Couza, Of Noldo Wallachia, selling
| the opportunity, is tanning the discomfort by
secret emissaries, in the hope of an eventual
| annexation.
Croatia too, for twelve years past the most
loyal of all the PROVINCES OF the Lorraine
dynasty, is highly excited. The Diet of A
gram has sent an address to Francis Joseph
still more forcible than the Hungarian one,
insisting upon the maintenance of the old
Constitution and refusing to elect members
! for the Vienna Council of the Empire. IMAM
| imous upon that point, it split into parties
about the question of the closer union with
| Hungary; and the Minister Schmerling, upon
| the false supposition that ell those who were
opposed to the union with Hungary might
| turn round and support him in mis- campaign
| against the institutions of Hungary. reframs
| as yet from disolving the Diet of Agram,
| and wishes to try once more to induce them
| to elect nine Councillors of the Empire. He
1 will soon be undeceived, and find that the
/ Croatians are as tough as the Hungarians
| when their political rights are at stake.
The Military Frontier is likewise deeply
| disaffected. The population OF zoe, 900 men
| who furnish an army of 10000 to the Emper-
| or, and are the most oppressed and most
| wretched people of Europe, are tired of the
| immense sacrifices they have to bear. They
claim an administration of civilians and an
nexation to Croatia, together with constitu-
| tional guarantees. In fact, they are tired OF
| being soldiers; they want to become citizens
If we add to this gloomy picture the dis
content of the Galicians, and the financial
distress of the Empire, we may realize the
difficulties of the centralizing Cabinet, which
still insists upon forcing Something's Con-
stitution down the Threats of the different
provinces by the butt end of the musket
Still. Mr.. Schmerling does not despair. Diff
| fculties increase his energy.
He is deeply convinced that he is right
and all the world wrong, and speaks of Con
stitutional Government, while he Introduces
| de facfo that stage of siege, and rules in the
same absolutist way as Baron Bach. 1t may
| be that in his heart he is as much an enemy
of the Austrian Dynasty and Empire as Kos
suth himself, aud that he is planning the
downfall of the Austrian monarchy, for his
| system cannot have any other result. The
last measure accepted in principle by the
Cabinet, to levy in February $4,000 con-
scripts in Hungary. and a proportionate num-
Der in Croatia and Transylvania, while all
the national authorities refuse to carry it
out, will, if insisted upon, produce an insur-
rection. It is impossible so to disperse the
army over the country as to catch the con-
scripts at once from Presburg to the Iron
Gate. and il the military proceeds from vii
lage to village, from county TO county, the
Young men will flee before them to the for
ests mountains, and sWamps, and organize
brigandage more formidable than that Of Ma
pies.
But.while Hungary is on The verge of in
surrection, France refuses to paclfy and
