THE SITUATION IN AUSTRIA. .
From the London Spectator,
Tuesday week, the .".Oth of May, 1871, marks
an epoch in Austrian history of the most mo
mentous kind. Since February last, when
the ministry of Count Jlohenvrarth suooeeded
the ministry of Count Potocki, the parties
in the KeicLsrath hare never relaxed their
attitude of mutual hostility. It may be said,
indeed, that hostility for opposition would
very inadequately describe the situation has
"been the ebronio attitude of Austrian parties
time out of mind. It must be granted that
recently a paroxysm of bad feeling has Bet in,
nor is it difficult to understand why this
should be so. Successive ministries have of
late years applied themselves to the new con
stitutional problem which since 18ii6 has dis
tracted the State. In 180(1 the long-standing
quarrel between the Magyar and the German,
a quarrel which in its day had caused so much
bloodshed and misery, was settled by aooed
ing to the demands of Magyars to the utmost
extent at all compatible with the continued
existence of the Austro-Hungarian monarohy.
One difficulty removed, another and a more
formidable one has sot delayed to make itself
seen and felt. The strife between German
and Maygar ha8 only given place to the strife
between German and Slav and between Mag
yar and Slav. In Cis-Leithan Austria espe
cially has the question of the nationalities
grown to gigantic dimensions. On the one
aide is the German party, powerful in their
traditions, their organization, and their re
spectability, proud of the part they have
played in Austria's past, prouder of the
mighty future which seems to lie before their
face in the Fatherland. On the other side
stand a multitude of nationalities, Bohemians,
Poles, etc, not without traditions of their
own, conscious of. long-continued insult at
the hands of the dominant raoe, conscious, too,
of possessing the great numerical superi
ority in the State. In the eyes of
the German Austrians, exolusion from Ger
many makes the prospect of being reduced to
a subordinate position in Austria inexpressi
bly bitter. After being so long the first of
Germans, the Imperial people, are they now
to welcome the behests of Slavs? In the eyes
of the Slavs, on the other hand, Sadowa has
forever destroyed the old prestige of the
Austro-Germans. Some Slav deputies, the
advanced Czechs, for instance, decline even
to be present at a lleiohsrath to which they
deny all right to legislate. Even when their
votes would probably decide a question
in their favor, they prefer to remain aloof
in contemptuous isolation, rather -than
appear to reoognize the validity of an assem
bly that ignores the claims of an independent
Bohemia. If other Slavs, like the Poles, at
tend and vote, it is always under protest.
Under these circumstances, it has oocurred
to Austrian ministers to try and see
whether a considerable introduction of
federal principles might not afford
same means of harmonizing separatist ten
dencies with the general interests of the
monarchy; but here the Germans step in,
and proclaim a war to the knife against
federalism. The secession of so many oppo
nents from the Reichsrath, on the ground
we have stated, gives them their oppor
tunity, and they use it. We have, m
a result, the spectacle of two factions, eaoh
composing a majority, the one in the Palia
ment, the other, among the people. Count
Potocki, who attempted to introduoe federal
Ism, was rewarded by the Parliament with a
vote of want of confidence. He resigned.
His successor, Gonnt Hohenwarth, for a simi
lar policy, was on the 2Gth of last month made
the subject of a similar condemnation. Here,
however, the similitude ends. ' Count Hohen
warth has no intention whatever of resigning.
Something like Prince Bismarck in the famous
contest with the Prussian Chamber of Depu
ties, he relies, ' for counterbalancing parlia
mentary weakness, .on extra-parliamentary
support, and events have shown that his reli
ance is not misplaced. On the 30th of May
Herr von Hopfen, the President of the Lower
House, presented the address of the majority
to the Emperor, expressing their dissatisfac
tion with the Ministry. The Sovereign re
plied that the Ministry possessed his entire
confidence (voUet Vertrauen), and dismissed
the petitioners with the admonition to aid
and not to obstruct Count Hohenwarth. The
dynasty has thus pledged itself to abandon
the ancient theory of a Germanio Austria,
which has been the consistent polioy of the
Hapsburgs for six hundred years. The Austro-Germans
hardly exceed the third of the
population of Cis-Leithan Austria. They do
not form a fourth of the population ot the
dual monarchy. Deprived of the artificial pre
eminence they have hitherto enjoyed, they at
once and necessarily sink into a second place
compared with the Slav multitude. . Will they
accept the situation, or will they summon
Bismarck to their aid, and by one great,
secession reunite all the German-speaking
tribes under the Hohenzollerns ? At least,
they are fully aware of the straits whioh
threaten them. According to their prinoipal
organ, the Neue Freie Frets of the 3d inst.,
the radical opposition between "the Govern
ment and the Austro-Germans is plainly ad
mitted, and with no symptoms of resignation.
"The answer of the Emperor to the address
of the House of Deputies is very short,
but perfectly exhaustive. The House of
Deputies had in the most emphatic
form at their command expressed a vote of
want of confidence against the Ministry. In
the address the ministerial policy was con
demned as a failure, as destructive of the
public order, as furthering disintegration and
pessimism. The Imperial reply expects from
this very policy the restoration of a settled
and secure Btate of things. The House of
Deputies refused to be responsible for the
conflict whioh again threatens. The Empe
ror expects rather that the House of Deputies
will co-operate in the adjustment of the dis
pute about thA constitutional forms, and
gives them his imperial greeting in this ex
pectation. The difference between yes aad
no, between good and evil, between right
and wrong, is not more distinct than
the antagonism between tha address
and its answer. The one is the direct
contradictory of the other, and between
them both yawns a chasm which no compro
mise can bridge over." On the other hand,
ench Slav journals as the Czas and the Na
rodni LMy hail the imperial reply as a Slav
success, and demand the speedy translation
of its favorable words into corresponding
deed?. The Slav movement is not confined
to the Cis-Leithan dominions. Ia the gr-up
of nationalities known as Hungary, the Mig-
J'ars are in as great a minority as the Geriniaa
n the other half of the State. At the recent elea.
tions for Croatia a vast majority of the votes of
that warlike country pronounced ia favor of
separation and autonomy. The Slovaokrf of
the Cfcrpathian valleys have token up the cry
Slav independence, and to thir to
millions is added the alliance of nearly a
many Rntbeniann, who have hitherto sup.
ported or endured the yoke of Magyar supre
macy. What the ultimate results will be it
is impossible to say. This alone is clear. A
decisive point in the development of the
IlapRburg monarchy has been reached.
Whether for good or ill, the day of the 30th
of May in the Hofburg of Vienna is a date of
the gravest kind. Let us hope that the event
will be fortima'e for the great "Eastern
kingdom," which bas been the barrier of
Europe against Mecca and against Moskowa.
DUMAS THE YOUNGER ON THE
FUTURE OF FRANCE.
From the X. Y. Timet.
Alexandre Dumas fiLi, as the French jour
nals still persist in calling him, albeit the pert
has passed away has written a notable letter
on the present state and future needs of his
countrymen. The letter is chiefly remarkable
for three things. It is extremely long filling
upward of four columns of L Opinion Ai 'a
Uonale it contains very little that is new,
and it is, withal, very readable, M. Dumas
bas been to Versailles to see, because, as he
says, to see is to know, and to know is to
foresee. This great truth, it appears, he
found embodied in that remarkable man, M.
Thiers, who has seen, known, and predicted
everything. M. Dumas has also done a little
in the prophetic line, though, of course, at an
immense distance behind the great M. Thiers.
For example, in a novel published three years
ago the philosophic Alexander did solemnly
enunciate these startling facts, that the old
society was everywhere crumbling, and that
all original laws, all fundamental institutions,
both human and divine, were being surren
dered, and called in question. Farther, a
few months later this far-seeing novelist
wrote in this sybilline strain to the editor of
the GauloU, who had asked him to furnish
seme articles of literary criticism: "What's
the use ? Is there anybody who, in a year or
two from now, will occupy himself about our
books and our plays? The drama will no
longer be in the theatres; it will be in the
legislative chamber and in the streets. Lite
rature is played out, action is about to
begin."
After having triumphantly vindicated his
right to claim possession of the divining rod
and the prophetic mantle, M. Dumas proceeds
to give the world an insight into the inner
consciousness of M. Thiers. Asa preparative
for this we are treated to the aphorism that
"in France nothing is so easy as to be pro
claimed great, while nothing is so difficult as
to be admitted to be honest." We are then
informed with impressive gravity that "M.
Thiers will neither prove a Monk nor a Wash
ington; he will be Thiers." To the reader
vaguely speculating over the significance of
this mystio phrase, M. Dumas adds, rather
more explicitly, that, order once restored,
the French executive in the person of
Thiers will, in effect, say to the nation,
"Choose your Government freely, loyally
and intelligently if you can and name whom
yon please, provided it is not I. Then he
will remain quietly at home, if he has by that
time a home at which to remain." Alongside
of the French novelist's opinion of his politi
cal hero, it may not be uninteresting to place
that of Karl Blind, the German socialist, con
veyed in a late communication to the New
Freie Presse. -"Changarnier and Ducrot
would fain play the part of Monk at once.
Thiers only hesitates from tactical motives.
At the same time, he has no desire to be set
aside by his rivals. Hence he rather keeps
with McMahon, the Bonapartiat, in order not
to be ousted by the generals of the united
royal lines. Thiers, too, means to have his
thrust at the Republic, only his mode of fenc
ing is a different one."
Descending to the 'rote of historian, M.
Dumas informs his countrymen that for some
seventy years they have been nourished upon
fictions upon words that signified absolutely
nothing. Liberty, military glory, universal
suffrage, the nation, universal brotherhood
in short, every idea that has dominated
Frenchmen since '89 has been either bur
lesqued or misdirected. To this pass it has
come at last, that there is no historical for
mula whioh has not been created and dis
solved in France, none of her political expe
dients which has not been both done and
undone. The plan, then, evidently,
is to begin at the beginning. , Every
body is calling loudly for the man
who is to save the nation, "lie is not
far to seek," says M. , Dumas, with an
inspiration of common sense; "you have
him very close at hand; it is you,' and I, and
all of us." The individual "the being au
tonomous and self-knowing" is, it appears,
non-existent, or, at least, very rare in France.
When a Frenchman gets up in the morning,
he requires other five or six people to assist
him in getting through the day. First he
needs a policeman to protect him in the
street, next a soldier to proteot him at the
frontier, then a professor to teaoh his child
ren, still further a priest to teach him mo
rality, some unfortunate or other to go and
take the chance of getting killed in his
stead, and last of all a king or emperor to
keep the machine of state in motion. This
eminently lucid and comprehensive de
tails of a Frenchman's "doubles" forms
the key to the new political gospel
according to Dumas. The Germans killed
the soldier and the substitute the Commune
extinguished the policeman, the professor,
the priest, and the emperor. A very obvious
opening has thus been made for every man
becoming his own policeman, soldier, substi
tute, etc., and herein lies the future salvation
of France. Of course, M. Dumas being a
great literary artist, does not descend
from his lofty platitudes quite so
suddenly as this, but, in plain terms, this U
what his specific amounts to. Ten years of
this regime will pay off the hundreds of
millions of new debt, will restore the lost
psovinces and will make France "the fore
most nation in the world." The period re
quired is moderate, but M. Dumas seems
rather apprehensive that to a volatile people
it may seem too long. Let him reconsider
the matter, and see whether be could not
conscientiously advise every Frenchman to
become his own baker, tailor, boot-maker,
and builder, and perhaps the great regenera
tion could be effected in half the time, to the
great satisfaction of France and her latest
prophet.
ALEXANDER II. STEPHENS.
From the K. Y. World.
, Mr. Stephens has assumed the editorship
of the Atlanta (Ga.) un, to the regret of
some Democratic journals and the derision of
some Republican. For our part we rejoioe
that talents bo distinguished and experience
so wide are to adorn the journalism of this
country, and to assist in shaping publio
opinion. It is true that Mr. Stephens is disa
bled by his ill-health not less than by the
mistaken policy of the radical party, from re
entering publio life by the door at which he
made his exit in 1851); but it is nevertheless a
noteworthy adjustment to the shifting powers
of the four estates that he has made. Earlier
it might have given lam success ia the great
effort of his life, to overthrow Toombs and
prevent the secession of Georgia.
. Mr. Stephens is not disqualified for useful
ness in publio life as so many Southern men
like Davis and Toombs, even though amnes
tied, would be; and as some few hide-bound
Democrats and nearly every Repnblioin of
the North, exoept Gratz Brown and Carl
Scbure, prominent before and daring the
war, are disqualified. Like mill-horses whioh
have been serviceable in one situation, they
do not know how to be otherwise serviceable
in another situation, and so when hitohed to
a wagon, drag it about a circle, as if a
straight road to a journey's end were an un
principled or impossible, thing. But Mr.
Stephens is capable to recognize a sitalatoa,
end to make the best of it when what he
would like better is not to be had. No man
fought for the Union more stanchly than he.
When Georgia seceded (for he believed in
her right to secede) he accepted the situation
and did his best in the coustitntion of the
Confederate States to fortify and guard every
one of the old Constitution's guarantees of
civil liberty. This, too, maiked his work as
Vice-President of the Southern Confederacy.
He fought against military and executive en
croachments of power as those here who never
ceased to wage a like contention can scarcely
presume to appreciate; for here, whatever
Republican brawlers and frightened fanatics
may have said, our contention never hin
deied, those encroachments never
helped, the victory of the North;
but the South was ' foredoomed, and
to deny her those unlawful weapons mn3t
have seemed to many the denial of a last
and only chance of life. We have not for
gotten his noble letter on martial law to the
Major of Atlanta (whom General Bragg had
appointed civil governor there), denouncing
the "palpable usurpation;" we never cau
forget his speeeh to the Georgia Legislature
in 18G4; bis denunciation of the habeas cor
pus suspension act as unwise, impolitic, un
constitutional, and dangerous to publio
liberty; his bold denunciation of the propo
sals for a dictatorship; his denial to President
Davis and to Congress of every power
not specifically conferred and all this
when the Confederacy was in its mortal
struggle and when he himself was charged
with attempting counter-revolution. So too
when the Rebellion was crushed, who more
promptly or more manfully than he aocepted
the duties of that new, changed, transformed
situation ? in his reply to Boutwell before
the Reconstruction Committee saying, "The
sword was appealed to to decide the question,
and by the decision of the sword I am willing
to abide"' and so like Lee pointing the
Southern people their true path, and saying,
"Patience; patience."
But Mr. Stephens not only lacks disqualifi
cations, he has exceptional "qualifications for
public usefulness. We have hinted one of
them. Not any true lover of civil liberty,
none at least so capable as he, can be spared
from the fight with the imperialists who are
steadily shaping our republio into an empire.
These men have entered upon what Carl
Schtarz calls "encroachments and usurpa
tions;" what Senator Trumbull calls "a revo
lution in the form and structure of our Gov
ernment;" what William C.Bryant calls "a
new rebellion by act of Congress." These
Northern Rebels owe this Southern Rebel his
"return match;" and may the rebellion whioh
would Cresarize the Government get its coup
de grace like the Rebellion which would have
diesevered the republio ! Keener weapons,
brighter with use than those Mr. Stephens,
wields, no man will bring to the field where
more and what is of nire consequence than
all we won at Appomattox will be the prize of
victory. The Federal unity is worth all it
cost; but that soul of liberty is prioeless,
which it was formed and constituted to
guard.
Concerning the three amendments Mr.
Stephens' position, misrepresented by radical
journals, in fact is this. Amendment XIII,
abolishing slavery, he regards as a valid part
of the organio law because ratified by the
constitutional constituencies of a sufficient
number of States, (though some had no share
in its proposal from Congress through volun
tary absence). Amendments XIV and XV
he, like all Democrats, . regards as the off
spring of gross usurpations of power passed
by force, fraud, and perfidy; in the proposal
of which ten States of the Union were denied
a voice, and in the ratification of which they
were submitted to : constituencies not em
braced in their constitutions, wnknown to the
Constitution of the United States, -and carried
through under a military despotism. But
Mr. Stephens goes farther, and thinks them
invalid.
Whether his be the sounder legal opinion
or no, on the point of validity, he would
doubtless feel compelledjto defer to a deci
sion of the Supreme Court thereupon, which
as at present constituted would not fail to
affirm the same. But as to Amendment XV
the difference is not great in a practical point
of view, for Mr. Stephens in an authorized
paper has declared his belief that negro suf
frage "does not belong to Federal politios in
any way," and his approval of a qualified
negro suffrage. And as to the remaining
Amendment XIV, leaving out the part which
a vote of Congress can extinguish, and re
ferring to its prohibitions upon States, we
have no doubt whatever that Mr. Stephens
concurs with the progressive Democrats of
the North in the wholesale denial of any the
least warrant therein for the Bayonet Elec
tion law or the outrageous Ku-klux act.
This practical conourrenoe of Mr. Stephens
with the Democracy of the Northern States,
not to mention the Southern, though a con
currence which is not unlimited by any means,
will increase the usefulness of his influenoe,
which, if exerted in opposition to their de
cision to recognize the results of the war,
would for obvious reasons be less than
nothing.
PRESIDENTIAL. ,
From tht X. Y. Tribune.
Those who either hope or fear that this
journal will be dragged or driven into a dis
cussion of the question, "Who shall be the
Republican candidate for President in 1872?"
may at once relinquish their hope er dispel
their apprehension. A year is quite time
enough to be devoted to the making of a
President, and the beginning of another con
test soon after one has been closed by an elec
tion is one of the most inveterate nuisances
of American politics. We cannot realize that
any practical good is likely to result from a
Sfcwtpaper presentation and discussion of the
merits of possible candidates a full year in
advance even of a nomination; but this is a
free country, and every one does what seems
right in Lis own eyes. We announce our own
course, without seeking to control that of
others.
In due time a Republican National Conven
tion will doubtless be called, and the States
requested to send delegates - thereto; and
then, it seems to ns, a discussion of the
merits of rival candidates, should more than
one be suggested, will be in order. Mean
time, if the Federal office-holder resolve to
stand a little back and let others be heard oc
casionally, they will evince a becoming
tu.odet.ty and justify tleir friend' opinion of
tLeir good taste. , ' '
-We of New York are not likely to have
much weight In the next Republican National
Convention unless we present our own State
in a better shape than she has worn for somo
time past. We propose, therefore, to pay
more immediate attention to this point. We
shall doubtless have a State Convention early
in the autumn, which will present candidates
for the State offices to be filled next Novem
ber, and endeavor to organize the prty
that a Republican majority may be secured in
both Senate and Assembly. We have no
doubt that a Republican Legislature can be
chosen, and we purpose to labor to this end.
Whoever makes the differences unhappily
prevailing in this city an excuse for
apathy or bolting must answer therefor to
his own conscience; but when the election is
over, should either house ba lost by a bare
majority, when it would have been oarried
but for bolting, we shall put our finger on
the very spot where the mischief was done,
and endeavor to let the public know who did
it. Faction and corruption sent Dmiarata
to the lost Senate from the Saratoga, Clinton,
Oneida, and Monroe districts; and votes mtv
be bought again, as votes were bought two
years ago. It is due to the true men of the
State that the culprits shall be more clearly
indicated than they were then, and we shall
try to furnish the needed information.
We repeat that, before the preferences of
our State as to a Presidential candidate can
be much regarded, it is essential that we
demonstrate onr ability to give him her vote.
After that, out choice may be regarded by the
Republicans of other States with an interest
higher than mere curiosity.
PHILADELPHIA.
From the X. Y. Evening Post. '
On next Saturday, July 1, if the arrange
ments are completed, Philadelphia will bo
come, formally, a way station on one of the
great highways between New York and the
Western and Northwestern cities.
It will remain, of course, an important
place for manufactures. Some protected and
others unprotected; the most comfortable
city on the continent for workingmen and
their families; one of the great centres of our
manufacturing industry, and, like Newark,
fortunate in its vicinity to New York. But
we suppose with the completion of the bar
gain which 1b to give the New Jersey rail
roads into the control of the Pennsylvania
Central Company, even the most ambitious
Pbiladelphian will give up the long and un
successful struggle to make his city a seaport,
and to contend with New York for commer
cial supremacy.
But when Mr. Thomas A. Scott, a Pbiladel
phian himself, and reputed to be one of
the ablest railroad managers in the United
States, has the roads and carats of the
New Jersey companies in his grasp,' we
trust he will recognize the immense import
ance to Philadelphia of the speediest and most
frequent railroad communication with New
York. Newark owes, we believe, muoh of its
rapid growth in population and wealth, and
its permanent prosperity, to the frequent and
rapid communication it has with New York.
Philadelphia is but ninety miles from this
city, and Mr. Soott would do a brilliant ser
vice to his own city if he would enable Phila
delphians to get to New York in two hours
instead of three and a half.
We suppose it will not be necessary to sug
gest to the Free Trade League of this city
that Philadelphia, thus brongut into more in
timate connection with New York, is good
ground for the missionary efforts of the
league. . .
