The Austrian Empire
Being composed of 17 different provin
ce?, Austria is governed by special laws in
each province. These lawb were enacted
in accordance with the usages and peeuli
arites of the various in!iililant. There
is an annual asscmblago in each province

in practice, municipal rigtus are now
cranied all over tha Empire, by which a
kind or pelf- government in local atlairs
exist, and is practised in every place.
The whole tmpire, in the year 1S04,
contained forty millions of peoplo.of whom
13J millions were in tha U rman Conl'eJo
racy, the rest belonging to other national
ities. uh this nuinlier, however, it
stands at tlie head of the Confcderncy
ns even' Prussia ha less German inhabi
tants. The Emperor hs no private coun
cil like the French ; but there is a Senate
of tho Empire ( Reichsralh) in Austria,
which consists. of 1(5 members of the dif
ferent nation", who discuss and legislate
on the most important atlairs of the J'.m
pirc, ptesided over by tho Archduke Reg
nier. The 'cabinet consists of eight numbers.
and its President is the Emperor, or the
Minister of foreign Atlairs. lhey are as
follows:
1. Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count
Buol Shaucnstein.
2. Minister of tha Interior, Baron Bach,
3. Education and Culte, Count Thun,
Ilohenstein.
4. Commerce, Industry and public
Works, Chevalier Togpetibourg.
5. Finances, liaron Druok.
6. Justice, Count Navasdy.
7. War, Army, and Navy, Count Grunne.
8. Public Order, Baron Kember.
The minister of tho Interior, Bach, and
that of Finances, Bruck, are men taken
out from the people in the year 18 W.
the hrst was, tielore that time, the most
distinguished lawyer in Viennu, and the
other the most learned and greatest mer
chant at Trieste. . The appointments were
extnordinarv exceptions from the .very
strict rule of gradual promotion, wh ich is
kept sacred, and practised in tho civil ami
military organization 01 mo govern men 1.
But this irradual promotion is solely de
pendent upon mental capacities and im
tegrity of character. Accordingly, men of
the highest nobility are often superseded

Prostrateii. At Boston tho other day,
Dr. Geo. B. Winship, who is said to be tlie
strongest man in tho world, was announo
ed to deliver a lecture. The hall was fill
ed, and the Dr. after having commenced
his lecturo
was seen to tall to the Huor.
He appeared agnin, and again swooned,
when by the advice of physicians he was
dissuaded from attempting to bo on with
his lecture. It is said thn temg taken
from the hall, his heart hud nearly ceased
lo bent. Dr. W. accounts for the unlor
tunate affair on the ground that the at
moshere was close and impure. His friends
however, regard it as caused by the pecu
liarity ofappearingbeforea public audience
lor the first time. Dr. Yv. lias tor several
jears given much attention to the subject
cfphysicial education. He is twenty-five
years of ajre. five feet seven inches in
hiight, and wheighs oae hundred and forty-three
pounds. Ho graduated at Cam
bridge five years ago. He can raise a bar
re. of flour from the floor to his shoulder ;
cat raise himself with either little finger
till his chin is half a foot above it; can
raise 200 pounds with either little finger ;
can put up a dumu neil 01 i - l pounds ; spiring together to secure place anil spoils,
execises daily with two dumb bells weigh-1 by deliberately ignoring all sound princi
ing 100 pounds each ; which ,ho can raise ' pies of Government, and nil enlightened
alttriwtely above his head; can lift with , inspirations of true American statesman
the kand 9iG pounds dead weight, without
the aid of straps or belts of any kind.
Topliam, tho strongest man in England,
could raise 8'K) i,ouiids In the same way ;
and the ceh-biated Belgian giant could lilt
only KK). Dr. W. was prepsred to exhib- i
it all these feats, but tlie unexpected turn ;
which events took prevented it. The,
strongman proved to bean infant.

Scotland and the green swards ol Switzer
land, and in the rural districts of Ger
many, lie objects strongly to fashionable
suppers and parties, and would seem to
speak in the following passage, not with
out personal observation :
"Why, I have sat beside a professing
Christian woman m one of the beautiful
parlors of a fashionable metripolitan ave
nue, whose jowelled neck, and ears, nnd
fingers, anil dazzling procade, as much as
said to the assemblrd guests, 'none of your
ftresses cost as much as mine ;' and then I
have seen her co into the supper room
and eat enough to make swinejhavc gripes
of conscience.fand then come out obese
and panting for breath, made marvellous
ly religious by sandwiches and champagne
and wind up the farce with a pious dis
course on the sin of dunoing. Now, I
think that if she had trrnsportod a por
tion of conscience from her slippers to her
stomach, though she might have an inch
or two less phy lactery, the loss would have
been compensated; by several additional
yards of Christian consistency,"
Sfj- A Sailor, calling upon a goldsmith
in this city recently, asked what might be
the valuo of an ingot of gold as big as his
arm. The shop-keeper beckoned him in
to a back room, and primed him with
