It is like being in the midst of an immense explosion of fire-works. On all sides right, left, before, behind lierc, there, everywhere, is the crash of falling dynasties- of systems overthrown the rush and sweep, like flame, of an aroused and irres istible people." It is the grandest pheno menon in the historv of man. From the N. Y. True ffun. THE STATE OF EUROPE. The fears which we have heretofore ex pressed iu relation to the possibility oT be traying the people of Europe,' whose cause is a common one against the system of mon archical government, into a war against each other for matters of territorial limits, 'are apparently to be realised. The Kings of Sardiniaand of Prussia have show n them selves, bold and skilful leaders. The Sar dinian King, not content with clearing his dominions of the A ustriar.s troops, has ac tually invaded Lombardy at the head of an immense force. The bloody streets of Mer lin are not cleared of the revolting sight, that they present, before the German nation is roused toa crusade against Russia, under the leadership of the Prussian King, in he half of Poland; and new animosities are awakened in Denmark by the interference of the King ot Prussia between that govern ment and her provinces of Schleswig and Holstein. In all this is to be detected the wiles of the monarchists and the duping of the people- Why does Italy embark in a foreign war while- her own insurrections and a Hairs of government are unsettled? It is no tloubttrue that the partition of Poland between Russia Prusia anil Austria, at the close of the last century, became the bond of union between those powers. The moment that one or two of the powers avows itself in favor of the restoration of that nation, it involves not only the resto ration of their part or their portion of the plunder, but a mortal quarrel with the re maining power. This latter is Russia, and the Czar in imposing strengtli is accumulat ing his columns on the frontier of Poland. Tne government of Prussia has precipitat ed this war for the fear that it should lose, in the progress of the revolution, the means of doing so. The affairs of England were not unlike those of France on the 18th of February. The Chartists were to have a great demon stration on the 10th of April, . and the gov ernment had forbidden it, on the ground that tiie notices callingthe meeting declar ed the intention of proceeding in a body to the House of Commons, and that a law in force enacted in the reign of Charles 2d, forbids a greater number than 10 persons to approach Parliament in a body. The objects of the petition comprise the six points of what is now called the people's charter,'' namely: :1. . Universal suf frage. 2. Vote by ballot. 3. No proper ty qualification. 4. Annual parliaments 5, Payment of members, and 6. Equal electoral districts ; and it was announced that the procession would consistof 300,000 men. The Chartists, however, held a con ference, and decided, to disregard the pro hibition of the government, which will find, even in England, that amovement of the people in this age of tire world, is not to be put down by the -'.divine right.',' They probably feel themselves much stronger than did Guizot when he forbade the ban quet of February 22. From the Washington Union. AUSTRIA. "Wcarc favored with the following letter, addressed to two members of Congress, from an American citizen in Vienna, dated Vienna, March 1G, 1848. The principal concessions demanded of the government by the people in their peti tions were the following: 1st, a national guard, or the arming of the citizens ; 2d, liberty of the press, or abolition of the cen sorship j 3d, a budget or publicity as to the disbursement of the public funds ; 4th, the responsibility of the ministry; 5th, a constitution. The following is a chronolo gical statement of the leading events which followed the successful efforts of the peo ple. On the morning of the second day, as I apprized you in my last, the Emperor exanted the national oruard, or arming of the citizens ; 'and forty thousand were im mediately enrolled and furnished with arms. On the afternoon of the same "day, (Tuesday,) two other proclamations were issued by the government one announc in" "that the censorship would be discon tinued, and law s prepared as soon a- possi ble for the government of the press ; and the other declaring that the Emperor would convene a deputation, or -'central congre nation ?' of the German, Sclavonic, and Lombardo Venetian provinces, on the third day of July next, -'to.givc their counsel" upon such legislative and administrative questions as might be submitted to them." These two proclamations, although pleas ing to many, were not satisfactory to the leading and determined spirits of the revo lution, and I were immediately met by counter-petitions one from the booksell ers and printers, and others from the citi zens generally complaining that the con cessions in regard to the press were not sufficiently explicit, and that the delay in the convention of the assembly was unne cessarily' ' long. No fighting occurred m the.city on this day, and the citizens, in full possession of all power, awaited with patience, but great determination, the fur- ther compliance on the part of the govern ment with their demands. The national ; guard, t-preserve the public tranquility and to protect private property from the -ravages of the mob, continued to parade the city with great order and decorum du- niig the entire day and night, marching through all the streets except those imme diately around the palace, where strong guards of the regular troops were posted, to defend every avenue to its approach. It was strongly in contemplation about this time to force through the powerful guard which surrounded the imperial residence, and, when access had thus been secured to the presence of the Emperor, to have demanded, and perhaps insisted, on the constitution. Fearing such an event, the guard, at every point, was that night doub led ; but no attempt whatever, on the part of the citizens, was at anytime made.-' Throughout the whole, struggle, the citi zens have exhibited that remarkable pa tience and coolness, for which the Ger mans are so distinguished. On the next, or third morning, the Emperor granted the two next points, viz: the budget, or pub licity as to the expenditure of the public funds, and the responsibility of the minis try. About the same time follow ed notic es of the resignations of several high offi cers, both civil and military, whose acts had rendered them obnoxious to the peo ple, viz: the Archduke Albrcehr, com mander of the Austrian army whose place was supplied by Prince Winderchgratez j but he, being almost as objectionable as the Archduke, was suffered to remain in power but four hours, v. hen he -was sup- " planted by the appointment of the Prince Charles Jichtenstein, a favorite with the people. The high chancellor of Hungary, the mayor of Vienna, and the minister of the secret police here, being disliked by the citizens, were all compelled to resign, -and their stations were immediately filled by persons of well known popularity. Af ter these repeated acts of obedience to tfie popular will, the Emperor, by the advice of his counsellors, and perhaps at the sug gestion of some of the people, drove through -the city to witness the effect of his con- -cessions on the public mind, and he was everywhere received and welcomed with the greatest kindness and enthusiasm. On the Emperor's return to the palace whether, as was said, he was so deeply penetrated with the manifestations of fidel ity and attachment on the part of his sub jects, or whether he was advised of the placards of the morning, calling for a rallv at three o'clock, of all those who were no"t satisfied with his concessions, I will not un dertake to say but during the afternoon, appeared the proclamation, a translation of" which I herewith send you, granting to the people all that they had asked, in the ful lest and most ample manner. No only a national guard, and freedom of the press, &c, but that a convocation of deputies from all the provinces, in which all classes were to be represented, should take place with the least possible delay, for the pur pose of forming a constitution for the Em pire. The Emperor has, by another step, anticipated even the demands of his sub jects, by declaring the sitting of the "Staeiulc" ('now iu session in this city to be permanent, and authorized the ad mission into it immediately, of individuals from all classes of society. Deputies have already been elected by themselves from, the bankers and wholesale merchants, re tail merchants, booksellers, inauufuctur- i i l l ers, mechanics, lawyers, ana pnysicians, and are this day taking part in the deliber ations of that body which has hitherto consisted alone of nobles. Still another mot important concession was last night made by the Emperor, which it is suppos ed will, f'r the present, conclude all nego tiations between his majesty and his sub jects. A deputation arrived here yester day from tne Hungarian Diet, now sitting at Presburg, to ask not only a constitution for the w hole Empire, but also for a sepa rate ami independent ministry for the kingdom of Hungary. In the first request, they were anticipated by the previous movements in Vienna; and the second, after much urgent solicitation, and even, it is said, violent altercation, in which the Hungarians were aided by their palatine,' the Archduke Stephen, the Emperor at length yielded to their demands ; and ap pointed Count Iouis Uathiany Prime Min ister, with authority to form such ministry. This morning, the fourth day since the commencement of the revolution, the work being ended, all other considerations are banished, and the occasion devoted to re joicings at the triumph which the people have achieved. Triumphal processions in every direction promenade the streets, the Emperor and Kmpre?s appearing in their midst ; the horses were by the people im mediately detached from the vehicle, and the sovereigns drawn through through the streets by their grarCful subjects;- whilst brilliant illuminations, torchlight proces sions, and other joyful manifestations, are to close the ceremonies of this memorable occasion. In this city, the whole aspect of tilings seems already changed; the peo ple appear to have passed in an instant from u Egyptian darkness," into "marvellous light;'' the secret police have entirely dis appeared from the streets; the windows of the bookstores are now crow ded with forbidden works, which had long been hid den from the light of day; boys arc hawk-
