Kaiser Joseph's Difficulties.

From the Daily NetDs.
A veritable Ishmael, Just now, is Kaiser
Joseph of Austria, with hand lifted against
everybody, and everybody's hand against him.
Much to distract his mind comes to him, now,
planning in Vienna how to avoid overcrowding
difficulties, and watching the cloud of battle
gathering about him. Squabbies and threatened
hostilites with aggressive Prussia over intermi-
nable and arcely.to-be-understood question OF
Schleswig- -Holstein; menace OF war, too, for him
on the borders OF the Empire and much talk of
Rhenish frontiers to be wrested from his grasp
by Emperor Napoleon in league with Prussian
Bismark; question, too, OF Hungarian faith,
and threats from Italy in the Quadrilateral.
Hence, truly, is Kaiser JoseNh brought t. his
wits ends And now supervene to his own home
troubles serious words of warning from the
United States over troublesome little Max in
Mexico last and most noisy OF Hapsburgers.
Especially lin all his complications and quar-
relsome relations with other powers) should
Austrian Joseph find cause for mortified feel
ings and disappointed hopes In the present con-
dillon of Max, late Archduke on solid founda

imperial way, in the land OF Montezuma. Sx
celent plan, also, for the Emperor Napoleon 70
assist with French arms at the new empire and
stand sponsor TO The imperial bantling. But
for all this fine prospect to be changed, after
much loss Of life and treasure; great battles
sieges, and marches; loud proclamations ant
DEGREES; excessive promises, and proluse expen
| diture of money on home improvements, pros
