Germany—lts Past and Present.--No. 2
In a former article we'alluded to the ambi
tious design of Prussia to elevate herself to
the rank of a first-class European Po)ver, and
also to that of the paramount State in the
Germanic Confederation. One of the grandest
measures which she has adopted for carrying
out this scheme is the union, under the control
of one State, (viz : herself,) of the custom
dues' formerly levied by each petty State on
its own *butlers ; but the credit of originating
this useful as well as ambitious project does
not rest with Prussia.
Germany formerly presented to the world
the aspect of a great nation divided into a
number of hostile States, making war upon
each other by means of tariffs and custom
houses, and armies employed in the suppression
of smuggling; so that in the course of a short
journey a merchant would be subjected to stop
page at the frontiers of every petty , State,
where his viiires would be overhauled, himself
questioned and searched, and forced to pay
duties. If we imagine; for a moment, .our
New England States, each possessing its own
tariff and custom houses, with a chain of po
lice or military round its frontiers to prevent
smuggling, (the tariff of each State differing'
from that of another,) and endeavor to picture
to ourselves tho feelings of a New-Yorker
travelling into Maine, in finding himself
stopped and searched on the frontiers of
Connecticut, and compelled td pay a smart
tax on his merchandise ; the same process
"Azpeated on his entering Rhode Island ; again
in Massachusetts, in New Hampshire, in Maine;
again on re-entering New Hampshire; also on
entering Vermont and on leaving it, making
in all eight vexatious interruptions and do.
ductions from his profits, we may form some
idca.of the obstacles to commercial enterprise
which existed in Germany previous to the
adoption of the Zoll-Veroin. Each petty
"five-acre patch" of a Duchy had its customs
and its custom houses, its revenue officers
and its revenue courts; but smuggling prevailed
extensively, and great immorality was thus
engendered; the expense of collecting the
revenge, too, was found to be out of all pro
portion to the amount collected, and the ob
structions to trade wore so great, especially in
the very small Duchies, that at length, in 1826,
the,little States of Sax-Weimer, Saxe-Coburg,
Saxe-Gotha, Saxe-Meiningen, Saxe-Alten—
burg, Saxe-Rudolstadt, Sehwartzbnrg-Son
dershausen, Anhalt-Dossan, Reuss-Schleitz,
Reuss-Greitz, and Reuss-Loberstein-Ehers
dorf, which may, with aomo difficulty, be
found on the map of Germany, lying contigu
ous to each other, and contain, in all, a popu
lation of less than a million, entered into a
union for a general line of customs barriers to
surround their extreme frontier, and, after de
ducting the expense of the collection of the
duties, to divide the net revenue 'derived from
them proportionably, according to popula
tion, among the several States. This first
union was called the Mittel verein, or central
union of Thuringia. The example of these
petty States was followed in April, 1827, by
Bavaria and Wurtemberg, which two kingdoms
joined in a union of customs, with the view
'of not admitting any, except the small States
enclosed, or partly enclosed, within them,
into the association.
The idea was taken up by Prussia soon af
terwards. Her provinces on the Rhine were
nhjc_elnij tAallabo.inconveniences of the cus
toms barriers interposed' by the — iiinall
lying between them and Prussia proper. She
therefore by a convention (entered Into in May,
1829) with Hesse-Cassel, Hesse-Darmstadt,
and the other States between her and her
Rhenish provinces, obtained the control of
their customs, thus removing all obstruc.
tions to commerce (excepting on her fron
tiers) the whole distance from France to Rus
sia. The benefits flowing from this measure,
coupled probably with the desire to get into
her hands the collection of the revenues of
the other States of the Germanic Confedera
-1 tion, induced Prussia to invite the latter to
join her in one general union of customs, pro
posing her own tariff for universal adoption.
Jealous of the ascendency she might thereby ac
quire, Bavaria,Wurtemberg, Saxony and Baden
refused to accede to the proposition; whereupon
Prussia placed a double line of customs °f&-
core between Bavaria, Saxony, W urtemberg
and all the countries lying north of those
kingdoms, which thus found themselves hem
med in by the high French tariff on the west,
the prohibitory system of Austria on the east,
and the now manoeuvre of Prussia on the
north. They, therefore, gave way; the more
so as the political aspect of Europe rendered a
union amongst all the States desirable for their
own preservation. The revolution of 1830 in
France on the one side, and that of Poland on
the other, broke down the obstinacy of the
German Princes, who saw the necessity of re
lying on Prussia for aid against foreign force
and foreign cc notions ;" and on the 29th of
March, 1833, they signed the famous Conven
tion, styled the.Zoll-Verein. The Thuringian
States joined it on the 11th May, 1833. Nas
sau and Baden joined it in 1836, and Frank
fort in 1835. Tho population of the States of
the Zoll-Verein amounted at that time to
20,000,000. The league was renewed on the
6th May, 1841, until the Ist January, 1864.
Brunswick and Lippe !joined it in 1841, and
Hanover and Oldenburg in 1861, these four
States forming what is called " the Steuer
verein."
PHILADELPHIA
PHILADELPHIA
Prussia has thus become repossessed of
much of the political influence she bad lost in
her contest with Austria in 1849 and 1850;
but the latter Power was resolved to supplant
her in the Zoll-Verein, and in January, 1852,
invited all the German Governments to send
delegates to Vienna to confer upon a treaty of
commerce and of customs•union between her
and the rest of Germany. Prussia refused to
send delegates to this conference, or to treat
of anything but the simple renewal of the
league ; but most of the other States sent dele
gates, and the bases of a treaty of customs
union, and one of tariffs, was settled. On the
14th of April 1852, the delegates of all the Zell-
Verein and Steuerverein met at Berlin to dis
cuss the renewal of the union. The partisans
of Austria insisted that the latter should be
permitted to send a plenipotentiary to the
Congress, and that the bases of the treaties
formed with her should be discussed; but Prus
sia obstinately refused to give way, except on
condition that the Zoll-Verein should !Intim re
newed. In this she was supported by the Sten
ervereia and the Thuringian States, while Ba
varia, Saxony, Wurtemberg, Baden, Nassau and
the two Hesses sided with Austria. After long
discussion,Prussla broke up the conference and
her opponents reassembled at Vienna, where
they entered into an agreement to conclude a
customs treaty with Austria, if Prussia persist
ed in refusing to treat. Matterci remained in
this unsatisfactory state, until at length, Aus
tria sent an envoy to Berlin (M. DE Bares.) to
endeavor to arrange the terms of a treaty
those were finally settled on the 9th of Febru
ary, 1853 ; the principal stipulations being the
removal of all obstructions to importation, ex
portation, and transit, (with the exception of
certain monopolies, as tobacco, salt, &c.,)—
the placing all the States on an equal footing
—the facilitation of navigation, and the regu
lation thereof by uniform law; provision was
made that the consuls of each State should
act for the others as for their own, and that
the treaty should be in force until the 31st of
December, 1865 ; also, that in 1860 commis
sioners shall be appointed to discuss its renew
al. This treaty was signed on the 4th of April,
1853, by all the members of the union, which
now includes the entire Germanic Confedera

At first sight, it would seem that so grand a
measure would go far towards blending all the
States of Germany ultimately into one, since
all the internal barriers Which continually in,

terposed between them, and reminded them
of their individuality, have been removed by.
it. But when we reflect little we perceive
that there are in• full operation other potent
elements which are so antagonistic as to make
us seriously doubt whether a fusion will ever
bo practicable. Foremost amongst , these are
the Roman Catholic and Lutheran Protestant
religions, and intermediately between these
a system of religious idealisni, which' has as
yet assumed no distinct form, but is generally
Enown here by the name of . Rationalism, and
nhich finds great favor amongst the, learned
and reflective portion of the German people.
This Spiritual antagonism lies at the root of
thdrefusal of the South of Germany, which
is entirely Catholic; to amalgamate with the
North, which is mainly Protestant; and long
centuries of discord have rendered this feel
ing a sort of second nature. .Another element
is the antagonism- of race, which is more
strongly manifested in the South than else
where. The Austrian Empire contains a great
variety of nationalities, differing as much from.
each other as they do from the German.
The Magyar, Croat; Pole, .Hungarian, Italian,
Jew, Bohemian, or Tyrolese, is as easily dis-
tinguished as the German by his national
characteristics. Prussia also contains in
heir widely-scattered: provinces a conside
rable variety of nationalities, e. g., the
Polish ?. Lithurian, Slavonian, Walloon, and
thb ps4raclindittavlan 'Teeple, of thellanse
towns, ino;the shores of. the -BUltic,, , History.
and7tradition form a third, element, whith has
a strong - hold on the people.. The German
mind is not impulsive nor prone to change,•
though. capable _of readily -adapting itself to
circumstances, as is shown here in the readi
neSs with,which the German immigrants em
brace and hold fast our political doctrines, and
become 'intelligent citizens., 'The beautiful
Fatherland is rich in localities consecrated by
religion, poetry, patriotism, and romance; and
the memories-of its great men are cherished
in every household. The love of home and of
the family is another characteristic of the Ger
man ; and where all these feelings are active
the disposition for political change is propor:
tionably inactive. •
Another powerful element of discord is the
rivalry between Austria and Prussia, not
merely as the representatives of Catholic and
Protestant Germany, but as political foes. Of
this wo may treat at some other time.

Interesting Letter from Missouri.
Correspondence of The Press
.1
Sr. Josspn, Mo., September 8, 1858.
A few lines from this portion of the western
country may not be uninteresting to the readers
of The Press. This city, the second in population
and importance in Missouri. is situated ninety
miles above Leavenworth City, and five hundred
and fifty milei above St. Louis, on the Missouri
river. It contains a population of near ten thou
sand, and, in addition to its commercial advan
tages, is situated in a thickly-settled, rich lamp
growing portion of the State. The country in this
part of the Northwest is settled and occupied prin
cipally by Virginians, Kentuckians, and Pennsyl
vanians. They are a social; hospitable, and en
terprising people, and have an "abiding faith" in
the future prospects of their thrifty anti beautiful
young city. Kansas City, Mo., Leavenworth, K.
T , and St. Joseph, aro the three great rivals for
supremacy in the upper Missouri country: , The
former has the energy; the second makes heavy
calculations, but has no "back country" to en
dorse them; the latter advances slowly and surely,
a little too cautiously, perhaps, but, nevertheless,
with an unerring certainty of being some day soon
a oity of no mean pretensions. The Hannibal and
St. Joseph Railroad will be completed. certainly
not later than the first day of next February.
This event will give us here a direct railroad con
nection with Philadelphia and the Bast, and
" open up" a rich, luxuriant, and extensive val
ley, which has hitherto been limited to tardy
steamboats for disposing of its hemp, wheat, and
corn. The completion of the Hannibal and St.
Joseph Railroad will open a new era in the history
and prospects of this plies. A daily line of large
and magnificent steamers now connect this city
with St Louis, and a tri-weekly line unites tat
with Nebraska City, Omaha, and Council Bluffs. ,
This is also the starting point of the 11. S. mail,
by way of coaches, for Salt Lake City. The coach
starts from here every Saturday morning, and
makes the trip in about thirteen days. It- is
drawn by Mexican mules, which are thoroughly
"broken in" before the line-starts. Drivers and
guides, thoroughly equipped and heavily armed,
go out with each stage. The stage fare from here
to the holy City is two hundred dollars, which ex
pense includes provisions, and all other necessaries.
There are generally some passengers going and re
turning by this route, which, in fact, is the only
direct one to Salt Lake City. On last Saturday the
overland mail from California to this point arrived
here, bringing dates to July 20th. Tho time con
sumed in bringing it from Placerville to this oity
was 29 days This route enables us to receive the
first California news here, as a telegraphic cam- -
munication will soon be bad between Placerville
and Solt Lake, cm Carson's Valley, leaving us
only thirteen days from Placerville, an important
advantage for us. I doubt not, ere this, there is
considerable excitement in some portions of the
East in relation to the cold mines of "Pike's
Peak." There is no doubt about there being large
quantities of-gold all through that part of the
Rooky mountains. Trappers, hunters, and travel
lers arriveliero every day, and confirm the report.
A young man from this town, who has been out
there for some time, wrote home a few days since,
advising his father to sell off, and come out immo
diately, holding out the moat tempting induce
ments In two days' time the old man cold off
everything, and started for the Eldorado. Large
companies of mon are starting from all along the
border. Each member of a centrally about to
start from this place contributes Into the general
fund $1.50, which entitles him to a mule, and pro
visions for six mouths. This seems like a low
figure, but we must remember that game is very
abundant in that country. Oold excitements, asa
general thing, have one geed effect—t. e., ridding
the country of large numbers of idlers, who are
willing to try their luck at anything else than
bard work. I may write you again from this point
soon. In haste, D. R. B. N.
A CONTRAST.—A little more than fifty years
aqo the Spanish Government owed the opulent
Parisian banker, hi. Ouvrard, four millions of dol
lars for supplies to the royal squadron, payment of
which was to be made out of the treasury of Meat.
Ouvrard sent his brother to Mexico to receive
the money, who, on his arrival at the 'mita!, was
introduced lie the treasurer into the Oleo of his
departmentarwhere there were accumulated seven
ty-one millions of dollars in specie at the disposal
of Spain, and as a specimen of old Castilian in
tegrity and honor, four millions were already set
apart, and labelled as the property of Onward.
What a contrast the present condition of the trea
suries of Spain and Mexico present, to gay nothing
about the honesty end integrity, compared with
fifty-eight years ago !
A merchant of Cincinnati, residing in the
rural suburbs, and having an estate of about
thirty acres, in a high state of ornamental culti
vation, lately planed along his fences and hedges
man traps, spring guns, bull dogs, and other con
trivances, to keep off poachers. The first victim
to the dogs was his own mercantile partner, who
had his clothes torn to shreds. The next result
of his contrivance was that of a gutta peroha
trumpet, with a long tube, and the mouth in the
house, while the other end was at the exterior
fence. This made such a hideous and unearthly
noise as to alarm the whole neighborhood every
time it was blown by any one. The net result
of all these precautions has been to frighten every
body away from the premises, and the man beano
friends or Visitors to his prison.

known the luxury of a stable, nor the aid of a
scythe in procuring her food ; cropping with her
teeth .for a living, summer and winter, and now
presents the appearance of six or eight years of
age. She is fat and healthy, and as active and

WHAT ENGLAND PATS IN ONE YEAR POE
MANURE —lt is estimated that England pays an

try. The total value of a year's crop has been re
ported to Parliament, some time. ago, as being
about three thousand millions of dollars—the crop
'includes the animal as well as the vegetable. The
turnip crop has been estimated in that kingdom to
be worth fifteen hundred millions of dollars.
