THURSDAY MORNING, MAY "a, 1855.
USTRIA.

A few years ago Turkey was considered
the sick man of Europe. Now it would mp
pear Austria has assumed that role. Her con-
stitution never was considered very good; in
fact, it may be said she had no constitution,
until comparatively recent period. The
Italian War few years ago proved this
point beyond doubt. The ancient power of
the proud old House of HApsBURa received
a shock from which it probably will never
recover. The loss Of her Italian provinces
was in itself no small matter, but the injury
received by this partition Of the constituent
provinces of tho Empire was far greater, in
directly, in the influence it exercised upon
her neighbors,-demonstrating to tham that
Austria was no longer the gigantic and
formidable power she Had been for oentu.
ries, and that territory secured by solemn
treaty was wrested from her OF the point of
the sword, without other plea or pretext than
that these provinces belonged to another ma
tionality, and preferred being ruled by a
sovereign of Italian blood.
Here, therefore, was the great trouble. It
| set the example, and gave encouragement to
the disoontented "nationalities;% and the
whole Empire of Austria is made up of such.
The Emperor and his Government have
found it necessary to adopt q more concilia.
tory policy towards these patriotic peoples.
Separate constitutions and diets have been
offered some Of them. But the question of.
fers innumerable difficulties Of most per.
