speech OF the Austrian Premier on the
Position and Infiuence OF the German
Element-PrOgress fthe Empire,


Eloment-PrOgress Ofthe Empire.
ReichenberO (Sept. lS) CORES. Of London Post.
At dinner given here to day in honor of
Baron Won Beust, his Excellency delivered a
lengthy speech, in the course of which he spoke
called 10 mind the vicissitudes of fortune and
the changes of public favor and dsfavor of
which he had been the object, as we'll as the
marks of sympathy lavished upon him upon his
return from the London Conference, and az the
grand festival of the choral societies at Dresden.
Scarcely year afterwards he found himself
an exile, delivered over to the attacks OF his
enemies, and 1t was only with difficulty lew
friends defend him. The speaker called to mind
that the country through which he had just
passed had been the theatre OF fratrcidal war.
He could net forget that he had himself been
accused of having brought about that struggle,
but he said that he repudated this unjust accu-
sation, which history would never confirm.
Baron Won Beust declared that he brought a
warmly German heart into Austria and that he
had struggled to enable the German element to
retain its place in the empire.
Baron von Beust concluded his speech by
pointing out that the situation mad become more
favorable. Notwithstanding he defeats she had
suffered, she had received testimonies of respect
had been weight thrown INTO the scale OF peace.
Her people had recovered themselves after two
wars following in rapid succession. "If fortune
returns" eXclaims the speaker, "the world will
see of what the people of Austria are capable
1t is the people, above ALL we desire should profit
by the benefits, in order to increase their pros
perity, for liberty prosperS and takes root only
among laborous nations who have made prov-
sion against want.n

the United States and the Hawaiian Islands
passed the Hawaiian Legislature on the I'd of
September, and was Immediately signed and
approved by the King.
The passage of the treaty is considered the
most popular measure recently passed by the
LEGISLATURE. AN classes are unanimously in
favor OF it, and the action of the Senate of the
United States and the President upon it is most
anXiousy awaited.
The first arrival OF the whaling feet reports a
catch that has never been equalled heretofore.

JEFF. DAVIS TRIAL.
Chief Justice Chase Not Likely tO Pre-
side at the TrIRI-DenIal that Judge
Underwood Expressed Any Opinions
-spacuIatiOns as to the Result.


-SpeculRtiOns as to the Result.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct l. Notwithstanding
that Chief Justice Chase has expressed his in
tention of opening the fall term of the Circuit
Court here, and presiding at the Davis trial, it
has now become a matter of DOUBT that such
will be the case. The Chief Justice may open
the Court; but as his presence will be required
in WashiI gton five days after the court opens
here, at the opening OF the Supreme Court, the
Davis trial may not proceed until some time
afterwards.
The statements made by Washington cores
pondents of opinions expressed by Judge
Underwood and District Attorney Chandler IN
relation to the conviction of Davis, are un-
true. Both these gentlemen have their own
private opinions on the subject but have made
no public expression, as reported. Mr.. Chand-
Ter win notify the counsel of Davis that his ap-
pearance on the LIST OF November will be re-
qured, and in default the forfeiture of his bonds
will be the consequence. Davis will appear, and
will be persistent in demand for trial, which, as
/ before stated, if not granted, a nOlle prOSequi
will be entered by counsel, and it is more than
probable, ii the Government does not sustain
the charges, that his acquittal will become a
matter OF necessity. No instructions have been
received by the District Attorney ON the Gov
erpment, and the question of trial yet remains
undecided until the Chief Justice speaks.-M y

AN OLD HAND.-An extraordinary rascal,
named Decarnin, died tie other day in one Of
the prisons of Lille, France, at the age of
ninety-two years, of which he had spent forty
five in jail, He is supposed to have committed
during his ill-spent life every description of
misdeed. The last of the twenty-five SEN
tences pronounced against him was incurred
six years ago, by his swindling some one out
of large sum of money, and stealing horse
and dogcart.
