wear for the frat time been celrDrated et tnc
old Imperial city, Frahkfort-On-tbe-Man, and
which bids fair soon to eclipse all other national
assemblies. II by far exceeded the boldest
expectations of the originators. Like no other
German festival before, it attracted the atten-
ton of the ncighboriLg countries, and even inc
versatile Frcuchmen expressed the opinion that
the next great impulse for democratic reVo'u-
tons in Europe would not come from France
but from Germany. A number OF leading men
from all parts of the country have had meet
ing, and agreed upon calling Provisional
German Parliament (Vorparlament), to consist
of all present and former members oil German
Legislatures, which is soon to meet. uniortu
nately they have one gigantic obstacle 70
surmount. Austria, in order to secure her
prepondcrance in Germany and to Obtain
new guaranty for her present territorial
extent, has proposed to enter tho now German
Empire, not only with those Of her provinces
which have hitherto formed part of tho Ger
man Confederation, but with all her posses
sions. The National party of the other Cor
man States sees Justly in such measure al
act of hostility toward the nOn-German tribes
of Austria which arc themselves now struggling,
Ike tire German people, for establishing tho
independcncy of their several natiooalitIes.
Rather than admit all these tribes, against
their own wish, aud merely at the demand OF
the Austrian Government they would prefer to
organize Professionally Germany without Aus
tria, trusting that the course Of events would
soon bring on a severance of the centrifugal
elements, constituting the Austrian empire,
into is national conponents Tho Germans Of
Austria, however, s!mpaitisc, to large ex-
tent, with the intehilons of their Government.
aud are of opinion that most o. the DOn-Ger-
man Tribes Of their country are, taken iEdiyid-
uely, So scattered, so weak, and already 30
mixed up with German elements, that their
gradual absorption by Germany has already
become inevitable. They moreover feel them
selves sighted BY any bint at their provisional
exclusion from New Germany and while thcy
heartily Join in the call for a German PaTlia-
ron,. they feel in particular Little iIritated
and jealous against the Prussians.
Still, there il on all sides q cordial wish 10
come TO an amlcabe understanding about thess
Il iIicu..ies There seems 10 be even IA rivalry
IN tho display of patriotic sentiments. In tho
latter days OF Auglst the General Assembly Of
German Lawyers comprising many of the most
distinguished statesmen aud the most celebrated
scholars, met at Vienna, where it found tho
most nattering reception on the part of the
Government, the city, and the people. The
occasion vas made use Of Tor holding speca!
meeting Of those members who now are or
formerly were members q the German Iegis-
Iaiures. The Austrian and the non-Austrian
Germans both explained their views, and
several Misunderstanding were cleared up.
Is is now hoped that the Austrian' will attend
the meeting of the Provisional German Parlia-
ment, and join at once in the reconstruction Of
the Empire.
We may therefore soon hear Of tho estnb
lishmeut Of new State in the center OF
Europe with population OF from forty to /
sixty millions OF inhabitants The character Of
the leading men aud papers Of Germany is
sufficient guaranty that New-Germasy will be
q more democratic State than either England
