the emperor o'l"Russia, levying on his forty mil-
lions of inhabitants one r_nan_on 250', producesan
increase to his army, of l(l0,000'soldiers,.sothat
the whole mass of his tlisposeablc force may be
justly calculated at _9_0O",O0O men. Great milita-

A Supplement to The Journal dc Paris, con-
tains the propositioii of the Austrian Minister to
the Diet, t7oundcd,, as it appears," upon the agree-
_ment entered into at the conferer.c::s at C-arl-sbacl.
In the itmoduction, it-is stated ttmu h‘-is imperi-
al‘Majcsty (the e‘mpet'or- of Austria) is persua-
dc‘(l,‘ll_ta.-t all the Members of the Confederation
-par'tic‘ipa'te with him‘ in'the wish, that the‘ Diet,‘
before ‘it atl_iourns,. sho'ulcl\di'r’ect their ' particular
A attentiorr-to that spirit hfdisquietu'de a1)dfe‘_t'men-
* tation, which has bcén for some ye,ar.s,- and is
no'w~fro_m day to titty more and more tlistinetly
manifested in Germany, and which has b’een-evin-
c’ed_'~b'y publications openly'seditiou's, by criminal
conspiracies, embracing more than on-:‘ part of
Germany’, by individual offences and atrocious
attempts. «His majesty desires that this Assem-
b’lyfs’pouldwsetjiorrsly investigate the causes which
have given birth to these'"disorders,-arid the prop-
er means of securing, for the future,~ the public
trariquility, respect for the laws, confidence in
‘g-ovet'nni_cnts, general calm and contentment, and
the tranquil possession ofall. those benefits which
tne German princes, under the protection of a;
peace, solidly gttaranteetl to Europe, have con-
{erred upon or prepared for the enjoyment of
their people. The sources ofthe evil, to the pro-
gress of which the governments of Germany are
loudly called upon to put an end. rnay be traced
in part, it is true,‘ to temporary embarrassments
-and tlerattgcments, caused by circumstances over
which no government can have any control ; but
they are notto be“ attributed to tlefects, to vices,
or to positive abuses, which it is ‘doubtless possi-
‘ble to remedy by measures well concerted and
maturely combined} ' I _
-The attention of the Diet is then called to the
four follow_in,t>; objects :— _ I
‘ l. The i‘ncertitude which’ exists relative to the
sense of~tl~.e lSth Article of the Federal Act, and
the false interpr.-:tattons which have resulted from
suclrincertittrtle. t ~ . .
2. The" want of an exact definition of the rights
and powers of the Feclcrative Diet, and the ne-
necessary means to t-nfurce their authority_.
3. ‘-The vices of public education in the schools
and uni~~et‘sitiC's. « ‘
4. The ui)=;!~‘.C3 of the Press, and the excesses
vvhich have been urunifested in the Journals, pc-
‘tlica-l-writings and ephemeral pamphlets.
‘:":"{”?With_rega't~d to the first, respecting Represent-
5
-ative assemblies. the Diet is’invited=to pronounce,‘
as soon as possible, on the precise meaning of
the Fctleralarticle, in a manner applicable to the
present situation of all the States of the Cooled-'
' oration, "and in ‘particular couform'ab‘le toptlte
.maintenancc of the monarcbical principle which
Germany can ’nt:ve'r sulfur to be broken in upon
with impunity. - . ‘
With reg-.trd’to"the second article, it is.propo-
sod, in case other means fail, to excrcutc‘ the de-
creesof the Diet by means of‘-the military force
of the Confederation. — ‘ _
- v t "Respecting tlrethird obiect, it is proposed, that
the Sovereign should appoint at each University
. a commissioner extraordinary, who should have
theypowet‘ of.enfo_rcing a rigorous discipline.-I
’With reference to the fourth,-‘ object, the abu-
ses of the Press, it is proposed toestablish a pre-
vious Censorship, to give a power to the Diet of
- suppressing any Journal or.l’eriodical V/Vork, and
-- preventing the editor of _su'_ch suppressed work
from editing any other publication during five
years. in anystate in the 0ot‘.fedet‘atiotr. 5'

It ‘must b’e_obvious from theabove proposi-
tions, that"it is the object of the leading govern-
-ments of Germa_ny'to destroy, as far as possible,
every vestge of freedom in that’ill-‘fated’country.

to ratify the tr_eaty_,‘to' annex thereto a new article
in which ‘the United States’would‘pledg“c them-
selves nottrtqacknowledge the independence of
iueuos A‘yres.. It is understood that the Amer-
ican plenipotentiary readily ‘answer'ed,“tbat‘altho’

to new articles, but merely to urge the ratifica-
tionof an instt'um€nt ‘thatalrcatly wore a perfect
and oliicial form ; yet, nevertheless, be felt him-
self perfectly authorized to say in the name of his
government, that such aproposition was totally
inadmissiblet - He further added that his impres-
sions wcre,-that the U. S. 'wouldrecognize the in-
dependence of Buenos Ayres, or anyof the frdt:
sectgms of South America, which had sufficient
‘strength and stability to warrant'*such recogni-
tion ; and that the line of-policy with regard to
dependent of existing relations with'Spain._ "He
further informed King-rFerdina'nd’s Ministers,
that nothing but a desire to evince to the world
the amicable disposition of the United States, had
prevented him fr'om-withdratvint: from Madrid
the very instant that it was notified to -him the
ratification would not take place : adding that in
this spirittof forbearance he shouldawait the final
instructions of his government. which he hoped
to receive before the end of September. At the
close of this interesting and spirited communica-
tion, Mr. Forsyth assured the Spanish Cabinet,
that they were not henceforward to consider any
one of the conditions of the treaty, as binding on
the United‘ States. " f '
English Rq/brmers.—-A meeting of Rcformers
Look plack upon Hunslct Moor (Leeds) on the
20th Sept. last: Mr. T. Chapman in the chair.
30,000 people assembled on this occasion ; and
after adopting sundry resolutions, peaceably dis-
persed. A flag, among others, was borne by the
populace, with these words:
* The more tlze cruel. tyrants bind us,
The more united 8/tall they find us ."
A meeting was also held at Birmingham, the
‘23d Sept. last.,at which Si: C.\Volseley presided ;
the concourse of people was immense. Incon-
sequence of at supposition that the rnagistr-ates
would attempt to disperse the assemblage, about
3 or 10,000 were armed with pistols.
The reformers wear white hats, and call them-
selves Radicals, being for radical reform, or in
other words, no half,-way measures. Annual Par-
liaments and Universal Suffrage, is their motto;
but we strongly suspect. that if the flame be once
fairly kindlcd,the struggle will be as mucltagainst

sprung up in it. - . . .

ing Sir Hudson to send some person over to Gal-
way to take pos’sessi'on»o’f the premises, as there
was a person of ettcroaching celebrity who might
otherwise throw down the buildings, under pre-
tence of improving his town. The letter‘ was
sent to,London, and from thence, by some ofthe

gin,he announced this happy tidings to his gaping
auditory. Sir Hudson could not, however, per-
mit the dimirrution of his trusty band by immedi-
ately sending oil‘-pa person to ‘take possession of
Iris Gal-way'esra'te ,- he,however, addres‘setl'the' tx-

people had an undeniable right to resist. The
attack on the meeting, and the massacre.‘ has ex-

massacre has had a powerful influence against the’-
governfnent.-, Sho_uld anotlterrnceting observing
