AUSTRIA AND PRUSSTx-

Germanic Confederation, and fuse its original
elements into something new and strange.
Nothing can be more heartily desired. The
resolutions Of the workingmcu Of parmstadt. /
that the, would approve of any change
which might be nade. expncss the
average sentiment oi Christcpdom.
The twcnty-Iour duchies I'D prin-
cipalitics Of Germany may be lsA-nea
TO gsd-flies on the body polite The buzz
and sting and sting and buzz They answer
no human purpose but that Of torment Hay
ing no foreign policy or interests the petty
sovercigns busy Themselves in deyising new
schemes to worry their subjects. They arc
prctcruaturally Keen in seeming democratic
tendencies, and fierce in putting them down.
The only figure they cut In politics Is serving
rs pawns for Austria and Prussia to play With
in their never ending struggle for supremacy
IN Germany.
The war now beginning is but one phase OF
this struggle. Austria, through the skill
md energy Of her Mcttcrnichs and schwar-
xenbergs. has hitherto maintained the first
place III German councils. The revolution
OF 1s4s brske up the Fcdernl Diet, which had
existed sinco the treaty Of 1915, and suhsti
tuted National Parliament In Its stcad.
Two year, later, whcu the revelation
itself had dwindled SO low that the gov
ernmcnt OF Wurtcmburg was able to dts
perse the Parliament Austria co1yoked the
old diet. and assumed the responsibility OF
restoring the ancient regime Prussia resist
ed the movement Of her rival, ind called the
parliament, which Ind been dispersed At
Stuttgart, to reasscmble at Erfmt, AustriA,
though staggering from the effects Of the war
in Hungary, promptly dispatched an army to
crush the movement of Prussia, and the latter
inglonous|y rctrtated = allowed horseH
to bo BUNDLED and thrust into
q secondary place, which she has ever
sluce maintained. The long wrnnglc In
relation to the duties Of Germany toward
Austria In the was Of 1853, had its origin In
the jealousy OF the two Powers. Prassia
would not move step to aid Austria unless
she shopld De given the leadership Of al the
German Powers, and, rather than lose hor
own position Of leaaesahip in German Affairs,
Austria consented to the loss of Lomtardy.
The Emperor Of Austria, In his proclamation
Of peace, declared that he had been torsaken
By his natural allies, and that he found him'
self abba to make better terms with NJ
poleon that he could have obtained from any
neutral power. This proclamation led to NJ
angry correspondence between Austria ant
Prussia, which eliminated In q bloody rioi

Frankfort .on-the-M Main. As the German states
all sympathized with Anstria in the war o
1859, their antipathy TO Prussia was strength
