the possibilities Of the future that the fate o.
-Sadowa may be reversed, md that the AUS
trian valor and skill may be able to prove
Itself what it has not done rs set. 1t Is true
this result Is not to be looked for, aud yet 1t
is TO lie heartily desired. Prussia has gone
quite rs far as Is for her own good, or for that
Of Germany. II wou1d be Of no advantage
To her to be so elated as to be standing
menace to Europe. She Is proud enough now.
and still greater Increase Of her strength
would be her most Reril,ous snare. It IS
her positiont and TO bring about the long
hoped for unity Of Germany; but it would
bring her neither an Increase Of strength nor
Of resources to see Austria dismembercd and
cease TO be power among the European na-
tions.
What sho wants is very plain: She means
to subject Austria 70 efiectually that she
shall be wholly outside of Gctmany, and
then she intends to rerire the old Empire
and place her King at the head. It Is merely
the revival OF an order Of things very familiar
10 the readers Of European history; but to
see German Empire from which the house
Of Hapsburgh IS TO be excluded. Is q new
event indeed. Undoubtedly the minor States
will retain their names, and to certain ex-
tent their Independent existence, and yet the
KING Of Prussia wil1 be proclaimed the En-
peror Of Germany, and his present dominloIs

may bc humiliating to sec descendant Of
the Elector Of poor, sandy BraudcnbursA on
the throne Of the "holy Roman Empire"
but the Berlin house has been two centuries
in rising to its present power, and its humble
any one but herself to thank for her exclusion
from the national board. During the past
TENOR twenty years she has insisted On being
at the head OF Germany, and yet In all the
efforts In which the people of Germany have
made TO eject to union, ehc has deliberately
Of these, and yet Austria has not taken part
In it; and while goods pass from one state to
another without, any custom-hopse e1a1nina-
tfbn, they cannot enter Austria Without the
payment Of duty. So in all the associations
into which the people have entered for tho
fprthernnce Of ends purely national, Austria
bas had no share, and 1t has been well said
that tho Diet was the symbol, not Of The
union, but the disnuf0n, not Of the strength,
but the weakness OF Germany.
